Grape Fruit Pays
In West Florida.

In planning the orchard there
should be special effort made to see
that plenty of grape fruit is included.
1t has been shown already that
there is no fruit more profitable than
grape fruit, and there is no place on
earth yet discovered which produces
as good a variety as that being grown
in Florida.
Grape fruit begins to bear in this
state about the third year, though it
cannot be considered profitable
product until about the fifth or sixth
year. Then it produces a quantity
sufficient to make any owner proud.
Grape fruit is the one fruit which
never finds the market glutted. Its
consumption increases every year,
and today there isn't half as much
being produced as could be sold at a
splendid price.
Oranges have been and are still
being grown in Florida very profit
ably, but oranges do not bring into
the treasury of their owner and pro-
Queer anything like as much per acre
as grape fruit. Both are considered
good crops anywhere in the "Land of
Flowers"
A good-sized grape fruit tree will
produce almost a thousand large
fruit per year. These if properly
culied and packed will bring in the
large cities Of the country anywhere
from 10 to 20 cents each. That is
enough to make any producer feel
thankful that he has given the grape
fruit tree special consideration in
planning his orchard and grove.
Some of the very best grape fruit
ever seen here is being grown in West
Florida. The climate, the soil, in fact
everything necessary to produce a
splendid fruit, is found all along the
gulf coast.
The grape fruit tree is both beauti-
full and profitable. In planning the
orchard and grove don't forget to see
to it that a goodly number of these
srees are included. If SO you will moi
regret it.

Room In West Florida
For Farm Development.

There is no section of the United
States that offers better opportunity
TO the large farm development COM
panies of the country than West Flor
ida.
Here the lands are rich and easily
cultivated. We do not say that every
acre Of West Florida land is rich,
but the per cent of rich farm land
will compare favorably with any part
Of the entire country.
There are yet thousands of acres
here that have never been prepared
for cultivation. These lands can be
purchased at reasonable prices from
owners and agents.
If the big farm development COM
panies will take the time and trouble
to investigate they will see that West
Florida lands will pay perhaps a
larger per cent ON the investment
than lands almost anywhere in the
Union.
Here in West Florida the climate
Is considered as nearly ideal as can
be found anywhere. Health condi-
lions are good. The water is pure
the rainfall is sufficient, but seldom
excessive. Pasturage is excellent and
timber is plentiful, both for building
and fuel purposes.
While the lands of West Florida
are being rapidly settled up, yet we
have ample room for many large
farm development companies to TO-
cate and do their very best.
There are several other things here
which are always needed in the de-
velopment of any country. We have
splendid public school system, good
churches and many railroads.. Gu,
people are sociable and law-abiding
Our waters abound with fish and on,
wildwoods with game.
This article is not intended as any
special real estate boom, but is writ
ten purely to bring to the attention
Of the large farm development com.
panies Of the country the. splendid op
portunfties offered here for the IN.
vestnent they are seeking.

Shakespeare speaks of .'porridge after

early years OF the eighteenth century

revolution or Stuart preparation of
Iplums and other ingredients was por-

was made with very strong broth of

commenced about 1895.
But of greater Importance Is what
