IT WILL BE RISKY TO SHIP
GREEN FRUIT HEREAFTER

Orlando, Sept. 29-,l.ocal citrus
exchange officials are highly elated
over the ruling made by the Depart
ment of Agriculture in Washington.
2. c.. imposing an acid test upon
citrus fruits sold in the markets.
The state green fruit law has proven
very Intellectual but state aid will
no longer be needed in endeavoring
to prevent green fruit shipments.
"The man who ships green fruit
now will do SO at great risk" said
A. B. johnson, in charge of the Or
ange county sub-exchange. "If his
shipment isn't confiscated before it
leaves Florida, it will in all likeli-
hood be confiscated by the federal
inspector before it goes on sale on
the market to which it is consigned.
THE Citrus Exchanse has adver-
tised and thus built up demand for
tree-ripened fruit. The green fruit
shipme nts have always been the
greatest menace to our markets be-
cause they damaged the demand for
Florida fruit. The exchange has
built up a demand for ripened fruit
and the new acid test imposed by the
federal government will largely ELI
inmate the green fruit from figuring
as a holdback to prices for good
fruit. Citrus fruit growers generally
are going to benefit because the de-
mand is now going to increase for
the Florida fruit and better prices
will come as natural result. There
is no comparison between the Cali
fornia and the Florida fruit when 1t
comes to juiciness and sweetness and
the Florida fruit will now go far
ahead of the California in demand
because there will be no green or
anges on the markets to create a bad
impression of the Florida fruit upon
all who purchase them. The new
test means much for the citrus men
of the state generally"

Georgia and Florida counties in

auditorium of the Jacksonville

TAKE TINE TO THINK
e, OF HEAVEN AND GOD

In these days of war and rumors
of war, greed and grapple, oppres-
sion, strife, hustle and gusto 1t
would be we'll for the Christian peo-
pie OF every denomination to bark
back to the good old times when re-
lfgious people found time enough
each day to spend at least a few
minutes in serious studious thought
of religion and its comforts.
Even in such times as we are pass
ing through today there is mucf
food for thought and comfort for the
real Christian of any denomination
If there was ever a time when
heaven seemed a dearer goal for the
tired soul of man than today it must
have been a time Of trial, indeed.
II is really something to strive for
something to think about and
something for the true Christian TO
feel certain of-that home of eternal
peace and happiness, called Heaven.
It is the one place where the weary
soul will find its longed-for ease and
comfort. 1t is promised to those who
are true to the principles of Christly
truth unto the end OF the present
life. No doctrine is more clearly
taught in the Bible than the doctrine
of an eternal haven of love, and
peace and rest and joy prepared for
those who love God and keep his
commandments.
The doctrine of heaven Is one
upon which Jew and Gentile'
Protestant and Romanist can all

Louisville Democracy.

With Democratic majorities
in almost every section of the
state rent in twain, and with the
results in doubt until the official
count was made, it is highly
gratifying to note the splendid
showing made in the Fifth Dis
trict at the recent election.
Stanley's plurality in the state
was about 300, while his lead in
the Fifth District over Morrow
was 1903. 1t is therefore, .ap-
parent that without Louisville
Stanley would have been beaten.
In view of the fact that the
Republicans have carried Louis

Democrats in the last twenty
five years, in this year of tire.
mendous Republican gains in 9TH
er parts of the state, there nee
essarily must have been some
bulwark of strength for the
Democrats which was response
BILE for Louisville's showing this
year. That, we believe, was
the Buschemeyer administration,
coupled with the high character
of the local judiciary ticket who
were candidates in the recent
election. The era of good gov
eminent seems to have come to
Louisville, and the voters of that
city seized upon this, one of the
first opportunities, they have
had of endorsing what Mayor
Buschemeyer and his associates
are accomplishing.
The bench in Louisville is dig
nifed by the presence of some of
that city's ablest lawyers, and
their position of the ballot also
brought great strength to the
State ticket.
When the Fourth District went
about fifty Republican in 1907,
Louisville gave Wilson a plural
ity of 5000 over Hager. This
year the Fourth district gave
Morrow more than 500 plurality,
and Louisville goes 1000 Dem
