Why Florida Is

Many sections of other states, and
many cities, once upon time were
swamps. 1t is not denied this is true
of certain cities and sections Of Flori-
da. No effort had been made in the
early days to drain these so-called
swamps There was no necessity for
it. There was plenty of good, high
land on which to build cities and
communities, but as these expanded
in population and more adjoinin suit
able land was unavailable, the low
lands we're drained, and the cities
grew and grew until today people who
reside therein discuss with pride the
vast improvements made. They feel
proud in telling you that where their
city stands was once aswamp and that
lover yonder'' in the farming section
the richest roundabout-was once
under water.
People who have been "wised-up to
the situation know that Florida is far
from being so bad as the early geog-
raphehrs would have us believe.
The thousands of visitors to Florida,
both winter and summer, and the
thousands who have been lured here
to settle by her delightful all the year
round climate, are singing her praises,
praises that are being heard above
the rantings oft he know-nothings and
the prejudiced praises that contain the
truth-and truth about florida is all
that is necessary.
1t is not only Florida's climate that
is attracting attention from all parts
of the civilized globe, but her magniti'
cent crop of vegetables and general
farm products, and her trees annually
burdened with golden citrus fruits
Then there are her splendid business
opportunities, and we must not lose
sighto it he fact that government sta
tistics tell us that ours is one of the
most healthy states in the Union.
What more can one ask? Wha
more does one need?
There is not state in the UnioI
that is attracting more people and Sc
curing more actual settlers than II
Florida. Some come and stay TO
awhile, then go away. These hav'
not made good because they came her
with insufficient funds or lack of de
sire to buckle down to work The.
were easily discouraged. These ar
not wanted here. Their parting give
us pleasure. -Palatka Post.
