splendid show of Jerseys, Holstein-

FLOWING LAND WHEN VERY DRY.

There is no advantage to be obtained
from turning land when it is so dry
that 1t breaks up in a very lumpy con-
dition, and especially is this true when
the ground is covered with a heavy
crop of weeds. About all you can do
under the circumstances is to wait for
a rain, and then turn the weeds under
to a good depth. You should immediate
ly harrow or disk so as to fine the
soil and compact 1t. The great mistake
most farmers make when turning under
a heavy mass of green material is no.
to use the roller Immediately after
blowing. This brings the moisture to
the surface as the land is compacted by
the weight of the roller. You should
then harrow the land so as to prevent
the escape of moisture into the air.

common with one another.
 This division of the forces of or ganiZed labor is without question just as serious as the division is ob- taining between the unorganized in. dividuals, except that the individual may not be quite so helpless orga- the demoralizing effect such a sy- stem of organization has upon the mass solidarity of labor, we can well doubt if it is not just as dangerous as if there were no organization.
 We saw examples of this in the Seattle strike; we saw more of it in the New York strike and the fail ures of three-fourths of the strikes which are recorded today are due to the lack of solidarity among the workers themselves.
 It is all matter of evolution. It will take some time for economic conditions to force the iron hard facts of the class struggle upon the workers, but it is making progress and we see today in many compara- lively recent events a tendency upon the part of the rank and file of or ganiZed labor to make the cause of one the cause of all.
 Reverting to the eight hour ques- tion it may be agreed that it will cut no manner of figure. It is not man. datory upon the leislators to pass an eight hour law. and even if such law passed there is on guaran- tee that the courts would uphold it. It is quite true that the eight hour day underground has been Tn a gooc many camps more or less of joke, and not an effort, even the faintest, has been made to enforce the provi- sions of this eight hour bill. But for all that, inasmuch as these things come like flash light in the darkness to reveal the fact that it is the economic organization alone which can enforce the eight hour day, it is desirable that such be voted for at the coming election.
 We believe that the referendum vote will carry If it does it will put all tho legislators on record and the workers will know where they are at. This paper has con- tended that the referendum was ordered in order that the legislators might have a handy opportunity of passing the buck. They can ring in to their assistance, too, many who are not interested in the question in the slightest, and that is why la Dor questions fare ill in politics and outside poliNcs. They are labor ques- tions, and they are settled not by labor but by the other fellow.
 Only when the workers are strong ly organized are they able to make it so that labor and not outsiders settle labor questions.
 The economic organization in all industries by industries, making the cause of one the cause of all, and affording the means whereby the workers who have everything in common. can dispose of the ques- tions which concern them without the interpretation of outside factors with whom they have nothing what ever in common, that is the hope of the wage workers.
 The main question is organiza- tion. Until the workers are orga- nized along industrial lines, eco homie conditions of today demand, they will have other people settling their questions for them

HAYNES AUTO SERVICE
SPECIALIST VISITS LAKELAND

N. n. Shepherd, special service
man of The Haynes Automobile Co
kokomo, Ind, is in the city for a
short time. He is an automobile ex-
pert, and is here to correct any pos
sible trouble that Haynes owners
may be having. While here, he is
making his headquarters with the
local Haynes dealers, Lakeland Ca
rage and Vulcanizing Co.
Owners of Haynes cars may avail
themselves of this opportunity to see
that their cars are giving entire sat
isfaction. Arrangements may be
made with him at the loca, ds4iers
to go over the cars and see that they
are in perfect condition.
Service is not to be considered
lightly in the purchase of a motor
car. Service, such as is offered by
the Haynes Automobile Co, means
a great deal. 1t is the purchaser S
guaranty of satisfaction. The owne..
becomes a member of the Haynes or
ganization and, as such, is entitled
to the same courtesy and attention
as any stakeholder. officer or repre-
sentative of the copany. Satisfaction
and service is what he may expect
! and receives at all times.
With the sale of the car, the obli-
cation on the part of the company
has just commenced. 1t is more than
just business transaction. 1t is
really the beginning of a very pleas
ant relation between builder and
owner, because the Haynes Company
is vitaly interested in each individ-
ual car and it's owner.
The stability of the Haynes organ
ization and the fact that the COM
, pany has for % years been engaged
in the manufacture of high grade
automobiles is assurance that the
Haynes Company is not of the
mushroom class of automobile
builder, but will remain in business
to give Haynes owners the service to
which they are entitled. 5000

/ the education OF the people to a
knowledge how to obtain this ad-
vantage for themselves by better
sanitation and better living. 1t is
quite within the remembrance of the
young men that the announcement
| of yellow fever in any Florida city
brought shudder through all the
state, and its nearer approach to any
given locality crowded the trains
with refugees to the North. Now,
such an alarm would be answered
| with reference to the State Board
of Health. But such alarms don't
come any more, for this disease and
others have been banished and their
coming made as impossible as human
knowledge and foresight can make,
anything impossible.
Experts alert and in closet touch
with the constant advances of medi-
cal science, are in charge of health
situations. They are backed by the
authority Of the state, with supreme
authority in emergencies, they are
equipped with laboratories in widely
scattered parts of the state for the
study Of disease in the individual
and in epidemic-it is a condition Of
preparedness that has for years pre-
vented the necessity of war.
The education of the people of
Florida to better knowledge of
their physical selves of the laws of
health and sanitation, has been one
OF the efficient weapons in the fight
against disease invasion and cpl
demic. And the most recent eddi-
tion to this educational equipment
is the Health Train, now on its
initial journey through the state.
The three remodeled Pullmans, with
their panels and models and stero-
photographs and literature in
charge Of thoroughly competent rep
resentatives of the Board of Health,
have been thronged with people
earnestly eager to learn. These pe0+
pie have returned to learn more, they
have brought the school children.
and their live interest shows the edu-
catlonal value of this travelling
school.
If it be really fact that in knowl-
edge Is power, the people of Florida
have within their reach the facili-
ties for becoming more and more eff
ficient in their care of themselves
and for making the state model for
the nation and the world in practical
sanitation and health.-Florida

DISCRIMINATING AGAINST FLA

A little over a month ago a friend
who is an officer in one of the most
reliable anp substantial land and
colonization companies of Florida
wrote US to the effect that railroads
in certain parts of the North are dis
eliminating against Florida in the
matter of maintaining homeseeker
rate points. He says:
The homeseeker business to Flor
ida points this year has been very
light and principally for the reason
that the railroad companies have
eliminated practically all of the
homeseeker points. They have left
none in the State of Michigan; Gin
cinnati is the only one left in Ohio;
Evansville is the only one left in
Indiana; Kansas City and St. Louis
are the only ones left in the State
Of Missouri; Chicago, the only prin-
cipal one in Illinois, with few
smaller ones; and the other States
practically eliminated. So certainly
Florida is getting the worst of that
deal by long odds and something
should be done and some action TAX
en- which will bring back to us home
seeker rates. 1t is an absolute out
rage, the way this thing has been
handled. They have been eliminat-
ing these rates consistently now for
| the past year and half; in the
meantime have paid particular at
tention that they advanced the rates
considerably before they eliminated
most of the points; their reasons are
absurd. This is certainly matter
for our land associates to handle and
to go after in such way as to bring
results. Florida is certainly being
Disseminated against by the railroad
companies in the way of rates.

be taken promptly by the various

Plant City
Drainage
District Is
Refused

The petition requesting the for1na-
ton of the Plant City Drainage DIS
trict was denied by Judge Robes Sat
urday after an all day session in I'M
ishing the hearing of the opposition
to the district which was opened with
four hour session last Monday
Objections to the formation OF the
district were presented by "a number
of farmers residing in the district,
most of whom were interested IN
that part of the district known as the
Virgins Prairie, including most OF
that portion of the district lying north
of the Atlantic Coast Line railway
tracks between the city limits OF
Plant City and the Polk county line.
In denying the petition Judge Ro-
bles declared that he was thoroughly
familiar with the lands involved and
believed the DIRECTORS were right in
their contention that the lands were
not contiguous within the meaning of
the terms of the law.
"The district outlined in this plan
is not contiguous, and the land is not
overfiowed, nor subject to overflow"
Judge Robes stated. According to
the testimony of the expert who was
brought here by the petitioners, only
IA. 900 acres of the $4,000 included in
the petition are in need of drainage.

| thusiasm on the part of the owners
of this property, as well as on the
part of the Tampa Board of Trade.
"The board of trade, in accordance
with its plan OF building up the back
country, is naturally in favor Of the
project, but | am afraid the farmers
of this territory do not sufficiently
appreciate the generosity of the board
of trade, in helping Tampa at their
expense,
IF YOU can get the right kind of a
drainage district mapped out in this
territory, l am for you, although / do
not believe that all the land that is
drained thereby will become as valu-
able as some have testified here
81 would rather follow the judg-
ment of one good practical man, who
knows, than all the expert testimony
in the world, in matter of this kind"
The petitioners for the district
were represented by Wilder and Haw-
thorne. while those contrasting the
formation of the district were repre-.
scented by G. B. Wells and John B.
Sutton, of Tampa. The testimony of
the petitioners was placed in evil
dence Monday and the hearing con-
tinued until Saturday. All day was
required to hear the testimony pre-.
scented by the opposition and in ar
gument of counsel A number of the
farmers residing in the district were
called to the stand and each declared
that they did not want to be in
cluded in the drainage project, many
of them admitting that portions of
their land were low lands, overlooked
or subject to overflow at times, but
