STILL LONGING FOR HOME

Dear Telegram and Lakeland Friends
1t has been fifteen months since
Mrs. Jones and have been to beau
til ~ land, except a brief stop
of cen trains. We made head
quarters in Lakeland for upwards OF
three years. and like most every
body who visits that goodly city
learned to love it and still speak Of
it as home.
We have given almost our entire
time since leaving your city, to the
development of our property on Lake
Buffum, and have had some very in
teresting and inspiring experiences
Our little grove is beginning to bear
We have had splendid success with
Natal grass, even ON poor scrub
land. Last year we grew IL Roselle
stalks, here and there in what would
otherwise have been bare spots, with
such success and profit, that this year
we have more than one acre planted
to this wonderful preserving product.
Mrs. Jones is spending the summer
in the old home. near Selma, Alabama,
with her mother and brother. She
reports a delightful time, but finds
herself longing for these refreshing
lake breezes.
Kindly greetings to all friends in
Lakeland and elsewhere who chance
to read these lines.
