THE ALLIES VIEW
By Albert w. Bryce

The action of several thousand
Germans and Austrians resident in
Switzerland in quitting that repub-
lie for their native countries has re-
newed certain rumors to the effect
that Germany will demand of
Switzerland emission to move its
troops through that country in or
der to attack Italy, and that Switzer-
land. rather than invite the fate of
Belgium, will give the permission
There is even some idle talk in Italy
about Switzerland joining Germany
in the war.
This is very idle talk indeed. for
the Swiss are a very canny and pru-
dent people. 1t is conceivable that
they might permit foreign army to
cross their mountains, without seri-
Gus resistance, if they saw that
there was no other way of avoiding
the horrors and destruction of war
But they would take good care to
obtain the most solid guarantee for
the complete liberation of their ter.
ritory afterward.

THE GERMAN VIEW.
BY Hugo Won Kliest.
q q q q q q q q u

Things are going well everywhere.
The prelude to the dlong-expected
and repeatedly advertised big
Spring Drive" has set in, but-un-
fortunately-not by the allies.
This time, again, it seems that
the Gtrmans have been quicker than
the British to drive them out of
their well-established trenches along
the User Canal, in order to push on
the center and important junction
point of the Ypres.
The Canadians made very good
stand, as it seems from the English
papers, but their endeavors to hold
the left wing at st. Julien ended in
very speedy retreat that cost them
very dearly. One hundred and sixty
nine officers alone out of that Ca
madam division are reported killed.
Perhaps the reflex of this perplex-
ing news will enlighten our neigh
Dor dominion what it means to fight
l"England's battles"
Besides the valuable territorial
gals the Germans made in this la
test offensive, they took quite lot
of prisoners, war material, thirty-six
English guns and four heavy pieces.
This the London eyewitness" re-
specially denied, whereupon the
German headquarters admitted that
, the hasty British retreat must, OF
course, have hampered the tele-
. grahip communication, but prom
| ised that some days later these guns
would speak distinctly for them
, selves-so that, then, every doubt
= would be removed as to which side

Over 200 Cars
Tomatoes Shipped
From Dade County

Miami. May 25-Although the
shipping season is fast drawing to a
close, more than two hundred car
loads of tomatoes have been shipped
to the markets since May 1 from the
lower end of Dade county. At every
point south of Miami packing houses
are all busy sorting and packing to-
matoes for shipment and it is eX-
pected that there will be a heavy
movement for at least another two
weeks.
At Florida City 65 solid carloads
of tomatoes have been forwarded to
markets since May first in addition
to about five cars of smaller ship
ments. A few carloads of peppers.
cabbage and beans have also left
that shipping point during the last
two weeks. Several packing houses
are being operated at Florida City
including those of Chase & Co., De-
troit Ice and Cold STORAGE Co., j. A.
Simmons and F.. A. Barrett. Heavy
shipments have been made by Mes
srs Oliver, Bryan, Moran, Moody.
High, King, Wilson, Hardie Rus
sell Hunt Ellison G. Hutchinson,
Gromire & Ireland, and Mrs. A. T.
Harlow
The location of the packing hous-
es on the Florida City canal and
alongside the F e. C. Railway track
makes it easy for growers to prepare
their vegetables for shipment.
Loads are brought in every hour on
barses up the canal and in automo-
bile trucks on the roads from all
points around Florida City.
According to j. A. Kahl, about
25 cars of tomatoes have been ship
ped from Homestead during the last
two weeks. If the weather contin-
ues favorable shipments will con-
tinue for several weeks, and as
prices are fair the growers are eX-
pectins to make good on their work
this season.
AT Goulds 20 cars left during the
last week and an equal amount the
week before Modello, Perrine
Princeton, Naranja and other points
are also making daily shipments.
Peters is considered one of the most
important tomato centers south OF
Miami large shipments being for
warded from that station daily.

pairing to plant forage crop. A

Starke Berry
Season Is Now
About Over

Starke May 25-Strawberry ship |
ping still goes in small way, crates
being sent by open express to points
near enough to admit of this mode
of sending while the weather is so
warm as it is now. The prices real
lied are not large, yet there is
profit left after all expenses are paid.
When the European war broke out
about August list last year, and
stagnation of business followed,
many believed that strawberries
would not be in sufficient demand to
bring remunerative prices and they
cut down their crops. However, the
season just closed proved to be the
most profitable of any yet experience
ed The shortage in acreage had
nothing whatever to do with it. 1t
is the ever growing consumption in
| the North of early strawberries
which creates the demand and cor
, respon dinghy high prices.
| During the active shipping season
275 refrigerator cars of berries left
Starke and Lawtey. With the ber-
ries going by express from these
points, and the berries shipped from
Raiford, Lake Butler, Hampton,
Theresa and Highland, a conserva-
tive estimate would make the az
gregate from Bradford county 400
cars, averaging $50 bushels each, or
about 10000 bushels. The price
averaged, as near as we can figure
out, $4.15 per bushel during the
season which means that the straw
berries brought to Bradford county
about quarter million dollars.
Many of our growers gather rich
harvest, besides from selling plants.
The soil of eastern Bradford coun-
ty is peculiarly well suited to the
production of strawberries, being a
stiff, clammy loan. The strawberry
can stand a great deal of water, and
the fruiting season being during the
cool time of the year, when evap-
Grafton is at minimum, and the
plant beds, besides being mulched
absence of rain for several weeks
will have no material i'll effect on
the berry crop. Year by year the
growers learn some new wrinkle
tending toward cheapening produc.
ton. The smallness of the straw
berry patches, seldom exceeding five
acres, makes the ownership of much
land unnecessary, many grower:
rearing large families on home
steads of only ten acres area, ant
many manage to cultivate their Der
. ry land and bring the berries to tn,
. depot without having to keep ;
horse, as they find it cheaper t.
hire a draft animal when they nee,
= one. The land here is still plentiful
J, and cheap and only a small capita
J., is needed to start strawberry farm
O Growing berries is a safe and sur
business, with good home marke

Vegetables Pouring
Out of the State
From All Sections

While the vegetable growers of

months of the year the growers were

well mingled with frosts in nearly
every section. Crop after crop was
drowned out Crop after crop was
killed by frost. Yet the growers
stuck at their work and kept re-
planting.
Today every section of Florida is
shipping some kind of vegetable.
Tomatoes are moving from East and
West Coasts and from middle Flor
ida in carlots. This crop will con-
tinue to move till well through June.
The late paintings are looking well.
The cucumber crop is going out in
car lots from all points beginning
at Wauchula and on up the lines Of
railroads as far as Williston. Pota-
toes are rolling from South Florida.
the East Coast and as far north as
Baker county shipping points. This
crop will be rolling for several
weeks yet.
Beans are rapidly closing up for

several sections, but they will not
last much longer The movement
of beans by express will continue for
several weeks yet.
| Peppers and eggplant, like all
other vegetables are leaving nearl,

coming from the lower end of the

are loaded in mixed cars. The mix
