Mrs. Bent blushed.
who was the man." she asked
softly.
Hill tell you some day in conf
dence," replied Mr.. Thrifty, with an
arch smile.
Mr.. Joy had difficulty in concealing
, MS uneasiness at the way his rival
was laying his course, an uneasiness
| increased by overhearing Mrs. Bent
ask Mr.. Thrifty to call soon and dis.
close his secret. Both diplomats left
| at the same time, and Mr.. Joy drank
many hot gins and waters before he
was sufficiently composed to retire.
He arose late the following morning
and was slipping strong portion of
spirits to prepare his stomach for
breakfast when the taproom door
opened and Mr.. Thrifty came in.
low are you, bo'sun?" said he, cor
daily.
Mr.. Joy responded with gruffness.
Hi suppose" said MIR Thrifty, in
an easy conversational tone, that you
have some hidea of counting the
widow Bent?"
Mr.. Joy replied by eagerly asking
what business that was of Mr..
Thrifty.
Just this retorted Mr.. Thrifty,
"hunder ordinary conditions Hi would
say, has a friend, Joy, give it hup, for
you've no chance at all has long as I'm
against YOU
"Wot are you drivin' att" demand
ed Mr.. JOY
"Hif Widow Bent marries hanybody
she'll marry me. She Il marry me to
know who the man was that her us
band wanted her to marry. And that
remark of her husband is as true as is
the singin' of that ymn of yours, Mr..
JOY"
Mr.. Joy redeemed. "Wot are you a
drivin' at?' he again demanded
Two 'undred pun is a temptation"
replied Mr.. Thrifty, but somehow l
'ates to settle down. Life hon the

I'll leave you the field hopen and go

Mr. Joy swallowed his spirits and
his eyes CLEANED.
"A pun and hits DONE" said he and
he lay 20 shillings on the table.
Mr.. Thrifty dropped the money into
his pocket.
Him dom thing that Hill repent
of later on" he said, gloomily, but

Mr.. Joy ate his breakfast with a
good appetite and with satisfied ex.
preston on his face. He felt that |

With glass of gin and water handy
he picked up the Standard and began
to glance over the news.

standing of the livestock industry on
the part of those in charge.
We believe that such men as c..
A. Carson and f. J.. Lesley of Kis-
simmee, J. Il. Whitner of Sanford. S.
H. Gaitskill of Mcintosh, Senator
Barber of Macclenny and other sue
cessful livestock men of other cali
Der. could take hold of proposition
of this kind and make genuine
success of it. The same idea might
be duplicated in various parts of the
state and, what is of most import
ance, it is fair reason that it might
prove to be the one quick and direct
method of standardizing the live
stock industry of Florida.
On this finishing ranch there
would be nothing to interfere with
the production of thoroughbred cat
tie and hogs for beef and pork and
for breeding stock. The profits of
this branch of the enterprise alone
would be limited only by the ca
pacity of the ranch and the eff
cheney of it's management
Within the past two or three
years a number of livestock farms
have been established by individuals
here and there in Florida that are
meeting with success. We know of
cases where they are penning up and
feeding small numbers of range cat
tie, to kill and market-literally
carrying out the above plan on
small scale. others are breeding
thoroughbred beef cattle for market.
and few are breeding thorough
bred dairy cattle.
We are encouraged by the success
with which these farmers have met.
From the result of their efforts we
know that breeding and raising
highgrade livestock in Florida can
be made decidedly profitable and
If some of our fore
most stockmen will combine their
efforts and start this movement on a
big scale, we not only believe that
the venture would be successful
from every standpoint, but that the
growth and development of the in
dustry throughout Florida would |
progress with far more rapidity in
all naits of the state as a result of
their worthy example.

BAKER COUNTY AN EXAMPLE

What few people can do if they
are really determined in the matter
of good roads is shown by the char
acter of the roads of Baker county
Florida. A staff correspondent OF
the Atlanta Constitution on the re-
cent Dixie Highway tour wrote as
follows of the Baker county roads /:
There is not county in Geor-
gia which has not as good and better
resources and more people than
Baker county, Florida.
'Baker county. Florida, has $500
inhabitants and 35 miles of Dixie
Highway road. That is Just one
mile Of road to be built by every 100
people in the county. That county
has the average number of white
women and childrel and dependent
negroes of any county that may be
found in the South Yet in the two
days run from Tallahassee to Jack
Sonville the county of Baker had
absolutely the best and the most
scientifically constructed and the
best maintained roads between Tai
lahassee and Jacksonville and from
point of population the best in the
entire South.
ut is a shining illustration of
what people can do if they are a
mind 10 do something"
