For Representative.

To the Democrats of Putnam County.
Gentlemen: | will be candidate
for Representative in the primaries of
June 9Th. l have served you through
two legislative sessions, and men who
know, will tell you that l have a rec
ord for doing things. l secured the
passage of every measure l ever in
troduced, and helped to kill some vi
cious legislation. l want to serve you
again. Our taxes are too high, and
they are getting higher every year
perhaps you have noticed that fact
If elected I am going to put a stop to
this increase, or be able to come home
and give a valid reason for my failure
But NV legislative Dictionary will con-
tain no such word as FAIL. Help me
by your votes to this place. I will
thank you and will not disappoint you.
Sincerely yours,

crop and in the right manner. Let
US start to diversifying by putting
these "spots" into use. Let us try
some of them in rice and see what
they will do-why not? Rice is a
commercial crop, and can be made a
staple crop if the farmers of Florida
would only take a hold of it. Grant
ing that we can not compete with rice
growers of South Carolina and Loui-
siana, yet it is a fine forage crop,
besides the grain is an excellent poul-
Try feed, and if we would make use
OF these low. wet spots by producing
rice for forage and poultry feed that
would mean quite a lot to the farm
ers reducing their feed bills every
season.
Go to your seed dealer and tell
him that you want some Gold seed or
the White seed, and if he hasn't Il

FORD SAYS PEACE DELEGATES
MUST PAY FOR THEIR OWN
FIASHY DRESSES.

Copenhagen, Jan. 5.-Henry Ford
has declined to pay for the new
gowns the women delegates are de-
string in order to make a brilliant
showing at The Hague peace confer
ence. He has also served notice that
the delegates failing to sail with the
main party on January IL will have
to pay their own expenses home.
1t Is learned that Madame Schwim
mer, the Hungarian peace advocate,
was largely instrumental in obtaining
a permit for the party to cross Ger
many en- route to The Hague. The
newspapers are agreed that this fact
has wrecked the last possibility that
the allies will look with favor on the
peace expedition.
Stockholm is favored as the head
quarters for a permanent peace tribu-
nal that Ford plans to establish. and
II Is understood Miss Jane Adams
will be one of the members.
