on GOOD ROADS.

Some one has said. "The roads Of a
country can be taken as a very good
index Of the character and advance
ment Of the people" II any one doubts
the truthfulness Of this try where the
people are generally wealthy and en-
terpriSing and see il good roads are
no tthe rule in such communities.
Then let him go into n community
where the people are generally shift
less and poor and see If there is not
a lack of good roads. If we were asked
to name what we consider the biggest
tax levied on our property the answer
would unhcSitatingly he "poor roads"
A man is required to pay a double tax
every time he carries a load Of produce
over poor roads to market. He often
pays more than double tax in so do
ing, for he can not only haul twice
the amount of produce over good roads
that he can over poor roads, but the
wear and tear on his wagon and team
is so much greater in hauling the
smaller load over a poor road.
Since roads are Of such great benefit
to all the people. it should be seen
at a glance there is no valid reason
that all our units Of government, fed
eral state, county and municipal,
should not assist in road building. We
are indeed glad that the federal gov

ahead of plants from a seed bed made
at the same time.
Probably the easiest way to obtain
plants is to bend the old vine over and
cover a portion Of it with earth so
that the top protrudes. In a few DAYS
roots will have formed and the top
may be cut off with the roots and set.
A more difficult way is to make cut
tings several inches long and to set
them in sand until they are rooted.
Ihey should be watered frequently
and protected from the hot sun.
Where the old plants are not dis
eased they may be pruned back to
eight or ten inches and allowed TO
form new tops. This will perhaps give
the earliest tomatoes. In the home
garden this pruning may be extended
over several weeks, So that success
sion Of tomatoes may be had. The cut
tings may be mace with the same view.

THE WRONG VIEWPOINT"

The Manufacturers Record insists
that the south develop its own insu'
rance companies. Needless TO state
Editor Edmonds wasn't thinking Of the
late lamented Florida Life and Flori'
ia Fire and Casualty Companies when
he wrote or O. X d the editorial
Tampa Daily Times.
According TO the Times theory the
south must never try to do lnytling
in which one failure has occurred. i
the south lacking in the honesty and
ability needed to run insurance COM
ranies? II one bank fails from mis-
management or dishonesty, must the
south refuse ever 10 organize another
hank: II one orange grove fails be-
cause it was badly managed or started
in the wrong place. must Florida for
ever lose faith in orange growing
Manufacturers Record.
The statement Of the Times does
not warrant the inference drawn BY
the Record, for this paper strongly
champions the organization Of south
cru life and fire insurance companies
this in spite Of the fact that many
have failed.
We think the business men Of the |
south should patrouize southern com
panics wherever possible, and that
southern states should enact laws by
which those who insure life and prop
crty will be- protected. As the situation
stands today. southern states give lit.
tie protection against 'wohbly' insu-
rance companies or hanks. We believe. |
however. that conditions in Florida
will be changed when the legislature |
meets next year. The people Of this
state have been hit So hard that they
demand protection Tampa Times.
The Times was never more correct
than in the views above given. and it
pleaSes Us 10 know that it has the cour-
age TO so speak. even at the risk Of
being criticised 10y the people of the
south. Conditions will never be thus
until strong insurance laws are enact
ed by the southern states. For more
than twenty years we were an insu.
rance underwater and all the embar-
raSSment and humiliation we have ev-
er suffered has been due To southern
companies. So true was this that when
our eldest son became a citizen Of this
state eight years ago and asked our
advice in regard to taking a policy i'm |
the Florida Life we. remembering the
fate Of the Kentucky Life and sever
al other southern companies. admon.
ishcd him to steer wide Of It. He had |
gone too far To Ice governed by our adj
vice, but now wishes he had.
The people Of the south are just a.
honest and have as much ability as
the people Of the north, but our in
,urancc laws do not give the protec-
ton to the policy holders as do the
laws Of many Of the northern states, !,
and we shall never insist upon our
people uniformly patronizing southern
companies until better laws Of protcc.
ton To the policy holders are provid.
ed. This is not taken to mean that we
do not have reliable comanies in the
south-by no mcans-hut it does mean
that you are not so well guarded ana
protected 10y state authority. We, with
the Times, hope that this will be rem.
cdicl by the next legislature.
