Punta GOrda Public Schools Haze Opened

Announcements - Principal w.
Z. Bell.
The address of Mrs. Stevens
was a fine one, which should prove
to the boys and girls.
After these exercises the pupils
passed to their various rooms
where they were examined and
classified. Routine work is now
being followed out daily.
The faculty is strong one and
every requirement has been COM
piled with to give Punta Gorda a
senior High School that measures
up fully to the standard Of the
state law and regulations.
Following is the faculty:

An event of unusual interest to
Florida farmers will be the con-
vention of county demonstration
agents in Gainesville September
both to 25th inclusive. The men,
bers of the convention are men
versed in the theoretical as well
as the practical side of farming,
and every phase of Florida farm
ing will be discussed, as can be
learned from the program printed
on another page. The sessions are
free to the public and we urge. ev-
cry farmer who can do so, to at
tend. The knowledge gained from
listening to and conversing with
the county agents and scientists
will be equivalent to term in an
agricultural college.-Starke Tele-

Every year the farce of "mend.
ing the roads" is gone through in
most sections of the country.
Mending the roads" is usually
done by men who have no more
ldea of how to make a good road
than they have of flying to the
moon. 1t generally consists Of
plowing or scraping the road un-
til there is a high ridge of earth
in the center, which ridge gives
far too steep grade to the road
and is converted into mud with
the first rain. Far more money
has been spent in making the
roads worse by the so-called
"mending" than would have suf-
feed by the use of proper methods
in giving the whole country really
good roads that could be travelled
with comfort at all seasons of the
year.--Gainesville Sun.

Spray for Fall Brood of Whitefiy

Spraying for whitefy is effec-
tive only against the larvae.
Sprays do not kill the eggs, and
because the adults can get out of
the way sprays are not effective
against them. The best results
can be obtained when the larvae
are young. The sooner the spray
ing is done after they hatch the
better the results. The fall brood
Of the adults reaches it's greatest
numbers during late August or
early September according to the
latitude and the season.
The time to spray to kill the
larvae, according to j. R. Watson,
entomologist to the University of
Florida Experiment Station, var
les, but the grower can notice
when the adults stop flying, Since
it takes about two weeks for the
eggs to hatch, the spraying should
be done about that long after the
flies disappear. The best methoo
is to examine with a hand lens the
leaves of the citrus trees, espec-
tally the new growth, at frequent
intervals. When nearly all of the
eggs have Matched, spray.
Ii the grower has not the spray
ing materials on hand, he should
procure them so that he will be
ready at the right time. Since
the price of whale-oil soap has in
creased, w. W. Yothers of the u
nited States Department of Agri-
culture Bureau of Entomology has
offered the following formula for
a contact insecticide: 2 gallons
paraffine oil: l gallon water; 81
pounds whale-oil soap or two bars
of Octagon soap. Heat the mix
ture to boiling, and emulsify with
a hand pump by pumping the ma
terial while still hot from the ket-
tie to a barrel and from the first
barrel to another. Mr.. Yothers
formula No. l is also recommends
ed: s pounds or | gallon whale-oil |
soap; 2 gallons prarfine oil, "a or
28 Baume; water l gallon. Full |
directions for mixing these sprays
are given in Bulletin 1913 of the |
University of Florida Experiment
Station, Whitefy Control, by j. r.
Watson.
There are three parafine oils on
The market. Red nsecticide Oil |
IS put up by the Gulf Refining
Company; Diamond Paraffine Oil
by the Standard Oil Company,

carry by a large majority at the cleo.
ton in 1916. But the women of the
State will not relax their efforts on
account of this easy victory, on the
contrary they will keep up the fight
until the last vote is cast in 1916.
The women of the State are as well in.
formed as the men and are as capable
of taking part in the affairs of the
State and nation as the men. To deny
the women of West Virginia who bear
the burdens of the homes, and have
in their hands the training and shap-
ting of the lives of our rising genera
tons would be an unmanly and cow
ardly act.

is keeping in the front ranks Of pro
gress and of all things that make for
the good of society and the people,

BIG VICTORY FOR SUFFRAGE

Fourteen years ago when an amend
ment to the state constitution grant
ing the franchise to women, was pre-
scented to the West Virginia Legisla-
ture, the proposition was almost unan-
imously defeated. In the legislature
of 1915 the proposition was almost
unanimously carried. only eight mem
bers, one in the Senate and seven in
the House voted against submission
of the amendment to the voters of the
State.
This is a remarkable change in sen.
timent. The women who have been
agitating the cause Of suffrage have
reasons to be greatly encouraged by
the recent action of the Legislature

sents the sentiment of the voters Of

EQUAL SUFFRAGE CATCHING

The map of the United States
proves that enfranchising the
women is natural process. 1t
has spread from State to the
State next door. No bad insti-
tuition could do as it has done.
Eleven contiguous States have
seen that equal franchise is a
beneficent institution. These
States are Wyoming, Colorado,
Idaho, Utah, Washington, Cali
fornia, Oregon, Kansas, Arizona,
Montana and Nevada Can not
the men of West Virginia see
the matter as naturally as the
men of these western States?

Nine States.

Since January /, 1915, nine
States of the Union have joined
the onward march of progress
by passing suffrage bills, pro-
viding for the amendment of
their constitutions to enable
women to vote. These States
are: Massachusetts, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Iowa, West Virginia, Arkansas,
Tennessee and South Dakota.
In Massachusetts, New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania
the question will be submitted
to the voters at the coming fall
elections. In New Jersey the
measure will be voted on first,
since New Jersey elections
come in September, six weeks
before those in the other cam
paign States.

Suffrage a Good Neiehbor.

Every time a western State

has helped win it for the States

which it is tried it has crossed

From Wyoming it went to
Colorado and to Utah and

way into Kansas; from Idaho it

long, so suffrage jumped over
her into California. Wher upon

ever given suffrage to women
ever takes it back. On the
contrary, suffrage in operation

HOME THAT is TRULY HOME
Its Creation is Wholly the Art of
Woman, and Really Her
Lies Best Work.

A home is not merely house; it is
an atmosphere; it is a place of be-
loved associations, where you can
wear old clothes, and think old
thoughts, and hear familiar voices
without hearing them. You can be
happy there, and be comfortably I'M
happy, be thoroughly unpleasant
even, and know that those you love
will think no worse of you than they
do already. Luxury cannot make a
home, nor can books, or pictures, or
rugs, or bric-a-brac. A cat, a canary,
two geraniums, a Bible and an old
rocking chair may make one of the
loveliest homes in the world. At the
same time a home is not necessarily
happy because it is the house of pow
erty, as some would have us believe.
The art of creating home atmo-
sphere is wholly the art of woman,
and she has none more charming.
Mere care will not do it, or mere
neatness and tidiness; indeed those
things sometimes work the other way.
The love of prettiness will not do
it; good cooking will not do it, al
though it is a mighty help. Even be-
ing gay and merry, and kindly yourself
is not quite enough, although it helps
even more than the, cooking. Sue
cess in homemaking, as in everything
else, requires that you shall feel a
real joy in your work. IF it is a drag,
If il is an irksome duty. If your mind
is on a thousand outside things that
are not home, you cannot make home
what it should be. Not that the home
maker should think of nothing else.
That is neither desirable nor possible. |
But the woman whose first pleasure !
is to create that beautiful thing, home, |
will be a precious and permanent in |
fluence not only to her own family, |
but to all her household, to all her |
guests, to the whole community in |
which she lives.-Youth's Companion.
