DON'T BURN
YOUR STRAW
1t is Worth $500 a Ton.
READ ABOUT THE NEW PER-
FICTION SPREADER.

Do you know that your old straw
stacks can be turned into gold at the
rate OF $500 per ton? Do you know
that you can increase your farm
profits at the rate of $500 per acre
by using your surplus straw as a fer
tilizer and soil saver instead Of burn
ing it or allowing it to take up valua-
BILE ground and rot in the stack?
These are bed rock facts. Hun
dreds of farmers throughout the mid
die west-the most successful and
most prosperous wheat farmers in
America are proving the truth of these
statements and demonstrating every
year the great value of straw spread
ing. Every farmer knows the value of
straw, but he knows also the back
breaking toll to make use of e this
straw by the old pitch fork and hand
method of spreading.
Farmers everywhere who have tried
the Perfection Straw Spreader manu-
featured by the Union Foundry & Ma
chine Company of Ottawa, Kansas, are
enthusiastic in their praise of this
new machine. arr7

1t is termed a new machine largely
because its sale was limited to a
small territory until its owners be-
came thoroughly convinced that it was
perfect in every detail. AS a matter
Of fact, it has been in use for more
than three years and a. large number
of tests prove it is the lightest run
ming machine on the market.
Will Woodlief of Oklahoma in
creased his wheat crop six bushels an
acre by using a Perfection Spreader
Bob Warren did even better-made
$500 clear his first season. Fred
Hagar and H. H. Busner of Hebron,
Nebr., also write they are big money
ahead.
The design of the Perfection Straw
Spreader does away with all the OBJ
jections found in the old style
machines. 1t works easily instead of
pulling hard. 1t is light in construc-
ton instead of the great big cumber-
some machine likely to get out of or
der. Above everything else it is abb
solutely safe because there are no ex-
posed fast running parts to mangIs
the operator in case he should lose
his footing and fall on the carrier.
There is absolutely no doubt about
the money making value of the Per-
lection Straw Spreader. Straw
spreading before or after seeding viii
increase wheat crops five bushels per
acre.
Straw spread on corn. alfalfa, clover
or pasture land will make you money
at the rate of $500 or more per acre.
Straw has a fertilizing value of
ABOUT $500 per ton This Is its fer
dlixing value as compared to what
$500 will buy you in the form of
commercial fertilizer. Straw has q
conditioning effect upon land in build
ing up its humus supply that you cam
not secure with any commercial fer
tilizer.
The manufacturers have so much
confidence in the Perfection Straw
Spreader that they give a binding
guarantee that it is perfect in con-
struction and material, and will give
satisfactory service for five years.
Any farmer owning 100 acres or more
should write at once for c. E. War

Railroad Aids State

The Union PACING Railroad an
nually spends about 100000 in ad-
vertising, very largely in California.
AS compared with what southern
roads eXpend for advertising pur-
poses this amount is staggeringly
great | do not believe that it is
so much the fault OF the officials of
the Southern roads that their ex-
penditures are so much smaller than
those OF California. roads, but :. is
because of the dominant influence of
the great banking houses and finan-
ciers of the East, who control the
railroads of the South, have never
yet fully grasped the possibilities of
this section and never taken hold of
it as seriously as c. p. Huntington
and Hartman and others took hold
of the development of the Pacific
coast.
Whenever Florida is advertised
as broadly, as intelligently and as
comprehensively as the Pacific coast
has for years been advertised, the
growth of this State will surpass
that of California in proportion as it's
climatic and other advantages sur
pass those of California"

FLORIDA FIRST

The Selma (Ala.), Times com
ments favorably on the action OF the
Florida legislature in making an APP
preparation to advertise this state,
and in doing SO furnishes the Mont
gomery Advertiser with the text for
an editorial from which we take the
following:
For all of the fun we poke at
Florida the fact remains that for a
decade she has been more enterpris-
ing that Alabama, though possess
ing resources by no means equal to
our own. She is peopling her coun-
ties with good Americans from all
parts Of the United States. She has
become the leading winter resort
state in the Union. She is special
izing in horticulture, agriculture and
stock raising, with results that she
is in touch with the markets of the
world Florida achieved her distinc-
ton by letting the world know what
she had for sale. VIII Alabama

STATE IS WINNING
IN CANKER FIGHT

The results in the fight against
citrus canker are most satisfactory
and the disease will doubtless be
eradicated from the state in three or
four years, according to a statement
made by p. II. Rolls, director of the
Florida Experiment Station. In a
short address before the Agricultural
Club of the University of Florida,
Thursday night, March %, Prof.
Rolls reviewed briefly the history of
the disease and the fight which has
been carried on to eradicate it since
it's first appearance in a nursery at
Macclenny, Fla, in 1914.
Prof. Rolls stated that If Florida
does succeed in eXterminating this
disease in the state she will have ac-
complished something which no
other state has ever done and will
at the same time save for the world
at large an important industry. He
cited as similar case the pear
blight which had it's beginning in
the Hudson Valley in the nineties.
This diseases, pear blight, was not
checked and by spreading all over
the United States has completely
ruined the pear industry and robbed
the people of fruit that would have
been valuable.
If the ,campafcn against citrus
canker had not been begun so early
after the introduction of the disease
into the state and pursued so Wig
orously, the citrus industry not only
of Florida but of the entire United
States would undoubtedly have been
destroyed -Plant City Courier.
