GEORGE N. WRIGHT
PASSED TO HIS
FINAL REWARD
AT NOON TODAY

After a last ILLNESS of over two
weeks, Mr.. George NJ Wright passed
away at 11:45 this morning, sinking
into that final sleep which brings rest
to the soul and releases the body from
all pain and suffering. While it was
known that the end was near, his
death nevertheless comes as a great
shock to his wide circle of friends, all
of whom are bowed in deepest sor-
row at the passing of this good man.
Mr. Wright was State representative
of the Dwinell-Wright Coffee Co., and
was one of the most popular travelling
men in the State. He was man of
highest character and throughout
=" ida he numbered his friends by
his acquaintance. He was a devoted
husband, fine, kindly, big hearted
man, and his death brings sorrow to
many hearts. He was man of strong
constitution and until year ago had
enjoyed the best of health. but since
that time he had been confined to his
home the greater part of the time
during all of which time he was Civ.
en- every care and attention that med
ical skill could suggest.
A good man has gone to his final
reward, and in his passing, his devot
ed wife has the deepest and mos
heartfelt sympathy of the entire com
munity The funeral services will b,
conducted at the family residence a
three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, t,
which all friends of the family are in

duct the service. The body, accom-
panied by Mrs. Wright, will be takel
to Jacksonville tomorrow night, wher

SOUTH FLORIDA LEAGUE
May Be ORGANIZED
At EARLY DATE

Yesterday Mr.. Chas. Bishop was
in Lakeland with a view to arousing
interest in the proposed South Florida
Baseball League. Mr.. Bishop met
with much encouragement from the
fans and business men. and it is high
ly probable that Lakeland will be in
the league with good team. The
proposition is one worthy of encour-
agement, and if the league is conduct
ed on the proper basis. with the ma
| jority of the players required to be
residents of the town on whose teams
they will play, the scheme can be
made self-supporting.
| OF the proposed League, the Tampa
I Tribune of this morning says:
South Florida fans refuse to be de-
MED and with the big league open
ing just five days away, the clamor
for some good baseball nearer home
is beginning to rise Already several
towns have organized teams and the
battles are agin waxing warm.
South Florida League seems to
be all the talk. From half dozen
! communities the talk has been spread
ing and now the clamor has become
general.
Perhaps the first in line was Win
ter Haven, that progressive commun
ity, sister to Barlow and Lakeland
both of whom are more than luke
warm for the idea. Crouch Camp
bell has been down there all winte
the parts of several other enterpris
ing athletes, and that city blossome,
out with nine these many week
ago
A Good Idea, Say All
Nothing would please these folk
better than a flag to fiaunt over a
South Florida, and they're booster
for a chance to get at such an en-
blem.
Charlie Bishop returned last nigh
from Lakeland, where he says the
are fighting happy over the prospect
of South Florida League He wi
. spend today between Barlow an
Winter Haven.
Reade +. Tilley, as usual in tn
!, van when it comes to baseball in tn
direction of Clearwater, is among tn
:, boosters for South Florida Leagu,
:, In fact, he declares all Clearwater
feeling good over the prospects
; such an organization.
There are many suggestions regar,
ing the formation of a South Florid
League, ranging from a strictly am
teur proposition to putting the entil
affair on an entirely professional ba
is. The medium ground as broache
by one fan is to limit each team
two or three outside players, the +
mainder to be recruited from the r
spective towns lots.
Many Suggestions as to Circuit

EXPENSE Of RAISING HEIFER
Estimated All Way From $50 to $75-
That Amount viii Often Purchase
Good Dairy Animal.

Is it cheaper to raise COWS Or to buy
them? Opinions vary as to the cost of
raising heller to milking age and it
has been reckoned all the way from
$50 to SIS.
II this is correct it may be moro
profitable to buy than to raise them,
for that amount of money will often
purchase pretty good heifer about
ready to produce milk.
It is probable in this reckoning that
retail town prices have been charged
for everything consumed and no al,
lowance made for what was returned
to the land; also that the calf must
have been. fed whole milk for q long
period.
It. is possible to raise calves On
cheap feed fer most breeders do not
care for heifer calf to get fat until
she has grown a frame.
