GREAT IMPROVEMENT
IN CITRUS INDUSTRY

When I first came to Florida we
had no law worthy of the name for
the protection of our horticultural
industry. Today Florida is the
leader among all the fruit growing
States of the South. Five years ago
care In picking and handling of cit
rus fruits was only being talked
about. Today the advanced packers
all insist upon this care and the
packing houses of Florida and the
pack that they send out will COM
pare very favorably with anything
California has to offer. Five years
ago very much of the fruit going out
OF Florida was shipped as 'Brights'
and sRussets,' there being no name
brand, Today 90 per cent of the
fruit shipped goes out under the
brand name.-The Stroller in Flor
ida Grower.

THE HUSBAND DECIDES

In Oklahoma a man has a perfect
right to forbid his wife's dancing,
and she must obey or take the con-
sequences. Those were the rulings
of judge +. d. Oldfeld in denying
Mrs Cecil Donovan's petition for di-
yorce from Charles Donovan Mrs.
Donovan told Judge Oldfield of the
trouble she and her husband had,
which led to their separation in Mid
vale, Utah more than year ago.
1t was in her story on the witness
stand that the dancing features first
cropped out, Dancing was not men
toned in her petition, or in his an
swer to the suit.
Mrs. Donovan said she and her
husband were at social gathering
one evening. and he told her not to
dance. When she glided away re-
CARELESS, he grabbed her arm and
jerked it roughly, she told the court.
She said she still was determined TO
dance, and went ahead despite her
husbands protests.
at appears, said the judge,
that the real cause of all the trou-
BILE between this husband and wife
was her desire to dance, notwith-
standing his pronounced dislike for
tina: sort of recreation, I'm going to
deny this decree because believe it
is the right of every man to say
whether or not his wife shall dance.
If husband tells a wife she must
not attend dances, she must abide
by hic wishes Springfield Repub-
lican.

An excellent linament for tooth
ache or neuralgia is made of sassa-
fras, oil of organum and half ounce
of tincture of capsicum, with ahlf
pint OF alcohol. Soak nine yards of
red flannel in this mixture, wrap it
around the head and then insert the

the limbs of piano, bath the limb
in a solution of tepid water and
! tinctrre Of sweet oil. Then apply a
strip Of court plaster. and put the
piano out on the lawn for the chill
dreu to play horse with.
To soften water for household
purposes, put in an ounce of quick
lime in a certain quality of water :.
If it is not sufficient, use less water
or more quicklime. Should the i'm
mediate lime continue to remain de-
liberate, lay the water down on a
stone and pound it with a baseball
club.
To give relief to burn, apply the
white of an egg. The yolk of the
egg may be eaten or placed on the

pare a tub of lathcr, composed OF
tepid rain water and white soap

A STATE CORN SHOW
NEXT YEAR

Il is probable that there will be a
state corn show in connection with
the farmers short course at the
University of Florida next year. G..
L. Harrington, state corn club agent
for the extension division, is plan
ming to have thecoru club boys who
win scholarships to the course bring
their ten-ear samples and exhibit
them. In addition it is hoped that
the farmers can be induced to make
exhibits.
Most of these exhibits could be
collected from the best which had
been shown at fairs. Then, too,
those who had profited by their ex-
perionce in selecting an exhibit for
the county fair would stand a good
chance in the state show.

There is a story connected with the
Russian prisoner who is shown here
in the custody of Teutonic captors.
Before the war the prisoner was
known as Madame Mario Mako, the
wife Of Russian junior officer. When
war was declared she changed her at
tire, cut her hair and joined the army.
All the rigors and hardships of the
different campaigns and the trench
life did not bother her in the least
and her sex identity was a secret TO
all but herself Then she was cap
tured and along with the rest of the
prisoners turned over to the German
sanitation corps. All the prisoners are
forced TO go through the disinfecting
station, where they battle and have
their Clothing disinfected. When
Madame Malkos turn came the truth
leaked out.

FLORIDA CAN DO IT, TOO

10y odN amman News, one Vi the
ablcst newspapers of the south, re-
Gently published an editorial on the
subject of Georgia feeding Georgia,
which might well be paraphrased
for the State of Florida.
the Union that can live, that is, feed
itself from its own soil without ref
Florida. Not only do we grow all
the necessities for sustaining life but
in abundance we produce those
things which are regarded as lux
urieS. and the State could not only
sustain life, but it could furnish the
things that make life enjoyable, as
we'll.
If Georgia can feed Georgia, Flor
ida can not only feed Florida but
a large part of the rest of the coun-
try included.
But, and this is strange thing,
we do not feed ourselves from our
own products.
While We raised eight million
dollars worth of corn last year, we
have imported millions of dollars
worth of prepared foods from the
mills of the north. While we pro-
duced. last year. every known vege-
table, yet the State could be given
tin roof from the cans in which
manufactured products We're ship
ped into the State. While our citrus
frui. crop was worth five millions,
yet We import California fruits and
fruits from the State of Washing
ton and from other far off localities.
While we can raise cattle and hops
better and cheaper than can any
State of the Union, no one has been
able to estimate with any accuracy,
the value of meat products, fresh.
sailed and canned, that we import
annually. Our fisheries send north
every year millions of dollars worth
of their product, and we re-import
then in some canned form, paying
the freight both ways, the expense
Of canning and hauling and the null
titude of profits
We produce enough in the rough
to feed our own people with all
that a kindly nature has been able
to give any people.
We waste the most of it because
we do not prepare if for storage and
preservation here, giving the profits
Of such preparation to the people of
other States.
We should be able to prepare our
own corn and we sell it to our own
people without the Intervention of
any northern mill. We should raise
our own meat and sell the died, salt
ed and canned product, not only to
our own people but to the rest of
the world. And so with our own
iruit2 and fish and vegetables. II
we would do with them as other
States do we would not be com
PEELED to import a single case, and
we would keep all the Intervening
