however, to winning suavity of

No section of DeSoto county
need fear that its interests are not

"Why not develop a Bermuda
onion industry" asks the Sara
sofa Sun, which has some strong
arguments on the advantage of
planting the onions in Sarasota
and vicinity. The soil in that
section is said to be well suited to
raising onions, and there is never
any shortage of the demand. The
truckers have not taken to raising
onions extensively, but wherever
tried, i'll various sections OF the
state, it has been shown that on
IONS do well. And they bring
good prices when shipped.-Timcs
Union Short Talks.
Onions, from The Herald man s
observations, do well in nearly all
parts of Florida. This section
seems especially well ADAPTED to
onion growing, as local expert
ments show, and Punta Gorda will
probably some day be known as
an onion shipping point.
