Quoting from one of Mr.. Cooper 5
lectures, Mr.. Willis said:
when people grow to a ripe ola
age, their digestive organs lack VI
tally, and begin to act more slowly
and less effectually than in youth.
The circulation becomes poor, the
blood gets thin, the appetite fails
and the digestion weak.
"TanIac, the powerful reconstruc-
tive tonic, is the lueal siren 5tHenei
and body builder for old folks, be-
cause it creates a good, healthy ap-
petite, strengthens digestion, en-
riches the blood and in this natural
manner builds up, strengthens and
inviogrates feeble, rundown, ner-
vous people, and is an unfailing
source of comfort to the aged and
infirm.
Tanlac is sold exclusively in Lake
land by Henley & Henley; in Fort
Meade by Warns Pharmacy; in Lake
Wales by NJ. r. Anderson, and in
Winter Haven by the Anderson Drug

it can also be expected that his
grove will increase in productiveness
until it is from ten to fifteen years
old, when it should produce an aver
age of 5000 boxes of fruit year in
and year out-returning him at least
$4,000 per year. and this, at an ex-
pense for fertilizer and labor of not
to exceed $500 per year.
Again let me emphasize that, if
it is worth while to plant grove in
Florida, it is worth doing it right,
for no matter what method is used
it is always expensive the first three
or four years and the get-the-tree-
in-at-once method is certain to be an
expensive one in the long run.

Andes Proves a Blessing TO An

Il want to say that since my wife
began taking Andes, all of her bodily
ais have left her Before she began
the use of this wonderful medicine she
would have smothering feelings and
actually have to gasp for breath when
the spells of nervous indigestion would
come on her
"She could hardly digest anything
and in spite of the fact that l got the
best medical treatment for her moth
ing seemed to do any good until she
began taking Andes. She suffered
from this trouble for the past eighteen
months. and It has pulled her down
until she was weak and tired out all
the time and hardly able to get about.
She had bad pains in the stomach
and side, and would swell up and have
ITO belch up sour. undigested food. and
at such times she would feel dizzy and
get her breath hard. She suffered from
constipation, too. and was nervous ard
could not sleep well at night All OF
these troubles made her life dreary
and miserable. She is naturally a
stout woman. and no doubt did not
take enough outdoor exercise. Our
ineighbors kept telling her to take
andes, as the treatments she had been
getting had done her no good | made

three. The way the medicine has
brought her out is truly wonderful 1t
just seemed to put new life into her
and she sings the praises of Andes to
every one she meets She now eats
anything she desires and il does not
hurt her in the least.
TT is fact that my wife is entirely
well and in better condition today than
she has been for years, and / give all
the credit to Andes"

SIX OLD LADIES
ARE RESTORED TO
HEALTH BY TANLAC
Famous Medicine AccomplisLes
Much in Treating Infrmities of
Old Age

For the past year or so, several Of
the more elderly ladies of the Old
Ladies' Home on Rutledge Pike,
Knoxville, Tenn, have been in a
very feeble, delicate state of health,
bordering ct times on, what might
be termed general decline.
Their failing health was due, no
doubt, in large measure, to the
general infirmities of advanced age,
and, although they received every
possible care and attention, they
seemed to be beyond the reach of
the treatment ordinarily administr~
ed in such cases.
At the suggestion of Mrs. Culton,
the matron of the institution, they
concluded to try Tanlac and it was
a happy decision indeed when they
did SO. The reconstructive powers
Of the medicine were at once in evil
dence. They began almost immedi-
ately to feel better, eat better and
rest better. Since that time the
treatment has been continued with
the most astonishing and gratifying
results, but let them tell their own
stories in their own individual way
Their statements are profoundly in
teresting.
Mrs. Houser was one of the first
to use the medicine, and, being at
very advanced age, her trouble had
been more persistent and difficult to
treat, perhaps than any of the 9TH
ers. Mrs. Houser said
Il have been in a very weak, ner-
state for several years and have suf-

bic. | would go for months at

ate some corn bread and spare ribs
for dinner today and they seemed
to agree with me perfectly, as have
suffered no bad after effects what
ever. The horrible headaches and
nervousness are gone and | am feel
ing SO much better in every way
Mrs. Martin, who was the next to
testify, said:
Il have suffered a great deal from
hard, darling pains in my head and
had had stomach trouble. | hardly
ever have pain now, the catarrh
no longer troubles me and my APP
petite is much better"
Mrs. Fling said:
Il was sick all last summer and
| now feel better and stronger than
in months. | no longer suffer from
the headaches | had SO much"
Mrs Wallis seemed to be especial
ly delicate and had very weak con-
stitution and weak stomach. Mrs.
Wallis said:
I'm only one week after taking
your medicine l began to feel great
ly improved l feel very much stron-
ger, enjoy my meals more and seem
to rest better at night. l expect to
continue taking Tanlac."

(By A. R. Nielsen in Tampa Timesl
The cost of Florida land varies
according to location and quality OF
the same, and, therefore. these esti-
mates are made with an average
price on the land to be purchased
Land varies in price from SO to
$50 per acre, depending on loca-
ton; however, with care in selec-
ton and not too much stress laid on
location, land can be bought in east
Florida for from s25 to $50 per acre
and very good citrus land at that
The best and the safest way to de-
velop a citrus fruit grove is to first
have the land thoroughly cleared of
all underbrush, trees and stumps,
which will cost from $40 to SIS per
acre, depending upon local condi-
lions. When cleared it should be
plowed and this should dbe done so
that the sod will have an oppor
tunity to decay well. This labor
should cost about 81 per acre.
If drainage is not perfect it should
be made so by sufficient drainage
bitches in number and size, which
will cost on the average about 500
for ten acres.
After the land has been turned
about two or three months it should
de disced and narrowed and all roots
gathered and burned and about three
tons of crushed limestone applied to
by experienced men and when so
planted; there should not be over
two per cent loss of trees.
The best time for setting trees IL
in the month of February, and when
set at this time they should be given
about one pound of fertilizer IN
March. Any standard brand carry
ing ammonia 4 per cent, phosphoric
acid 6 per cent, potash to per
cent is good. Again in August or
September they should be given an
other application of the same quail
ity and amount. In May there
should be planted another cover
crop of velvet beans, care being
taken that the trees are not choked
or smothered by their rank growth.
AS said before this plan of de-
velopment is not followed by great
many. Some have the idea that
year is lost in preparing land in this
manner, and that there is consider
able expense attached to it, but it
should be taken into consideration
that no matter what method is fol-
lowed in the development of a citrus
grove, it is an expensive one if
failure is made, while if success is
assured then the expense is imma-
terial. The old maxim, that "a
thing worth doing is worth doing
WELL" applies especially to the de-
velopment of citrus grove.
The fertilizer used the third,
fourth and fifth years may be any
one Of the reliable brands containing
to 6 per cent ammonia and Z to
9 per cent phosphoric acid and to
II per cent. of potash. They vary
according to conditions especially
the condition of the trees 1t will
be seen that at the end of the sixth
year or the fifth year that the trees
have been in the ground, the invest
ment is more than returned to the
grower and he has his grove clear
when it is producing from two to six
boxes Of fruit to the tree. OF course
these figures are estimates and will
vary great deal, but it can nearly
always be figured that at the end of
the sixth year that the trees have
been in the ground, the grower has
