Missions Frank With Public.

AS a voucher for their sincerity IN
announcing that they believe in fun
damental democracy in international
as well as domestic matters, both mis-
sions came to Washington ready to
lay their cards on the table and play
their game in the open.
Ready to pr out information where
they could, To- newspaper men called
around when the British commission
arrived and ere surprised to be met
with the utmo cordality by Mr.. But
Ter, who had surprising frankness and
naive willingness to answer questions.
He took the newspaper men into his
confidence. telling them all they WANT
ed to know and indicating what por-
tions might be used. His confidence in
the correspondents has been justified
by the fact that not in a single in
stance has a confidence been broken.
Before the war a professor at Cam
bridge, one time lecturer at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, husband of an
American woman and more recently
acting as a censor in dealing with
American newspaper men for the for
eign Office in London, Mr.. Butler, pos
sesses an amazing knowledge not only
of current European affairs, but of the
underlying causes Of present day
events.

Put in Human Interest Touch

But the thing that flabbergasted the
newspaper men most, perhaps, was the
morning Mr.. Butler turned up with
little mental notebook full of anec-
dotes about impressions. personal anec-
dotes and characteristic stories about
the members of the British party.
1t was the sort of newspaper stun"
that the correspondents wanted. but
hesitated to ask for.
Timidly, almost apologetically. after
several conferences with weighty mat
ters of state, Mr.. Butler haltingly be-
gan: -
II don't know whether they viii be
of any use to you: they seem unimpor-
tant. but / wondered whether you did
not wish to know some cf the COM
ments made by members of cur party

yators, your o'clock cocktail VS.. our

Dislikes Any Disturbances.

NJ. Hovelaque possesses a mastery OF
the English language that has been the
envy of many a writer who has heard
him talk His conferences have been
more formal. With the French love OF
continuity and completeness, he dislikes
to be interrupted by questions, but pre-
fers to give a talk about the missions
activities. uninterrupted. than to reply
to questions. A late conner annoys HIM,
any disturbance he dislikes.
But his talks, historical. political and
dealing at times with the psychology of
the French people. have given those
who have heard him a keener and
deeper insight into the mental makeup
of the nation which has borne the brunt
of the war.
The adaptability of both men to
American newspaper conditions proba-
bly, can only be appreciated by news
paper men. The personal interview. ac-
companied by running comment on the
personality of the person interviewed.
is unknown in France. The human in
terest story" is too lightsome thing
for heavy, ponderous English journal
ism.
NJ. Hovelaque. realizing the personal
interview as the American method or
getting a personal message before the
American public. has been instrumental
in submitting NJ. Niviani and Marshal
Joffre to take a free and easy artillery
of questions from the newspaper men.

GOT THE MISSIONS
CLOSE TO PEOPLE
Emile HoveIaque and Geoffrey
Butler Took Newspaper Men
Into Their Confidence. :.
PUT HUMAN INTEREST SIDE

To the courtesy, diligence. frankness
and discretion of two men is due In
large part the thanks of the American
people for all the information they
have had about the movements and
activities OF the French and British
war commissions.
These men are Emile Hoveiaque. tho
heavy bearded. dynamic and learned
counselor Of the French mission. who
took over the task OF spokesman for
the French ENJOYS because he was the
only member of the. party who could
speak English fuently. and Godfrey
Butler. secretary Of the British mission.
whose experience with American news
paper correspondents in London and
familiarity with American institutions
were the factors in his selection.
incidentally. the manner Of inform
ing the public about the work of the
missions sets a precedent in interna-
tional negotiations. Hitherto the COM
ing of foreign mission was largely
a matter of newspaper speculation. and
such crumbs of fact as could be gar.
nered from officials with whom they
talked behind closed doors.

While the Dutch ship was being de-

closer in shore.But no war vessel was

had been sighted earlier in the day.
On February 5 the Kroonland sight
ed several miles off her port bow what
officers declared was a submarine. The
craft approached within a couple of
miles, remained in sight for fifteen
minutes and disappeared.
Two hours later black funnel ship
appeared. No signals were given and
those sent by the Kroonland were I'M
answered. For some time the mysteri-
Gus stranger kept course parallel to
the Kroonland and then disappeared.
The Kroonland, on leaving Liver
pool, and every night until the last
night before reaching this port, sailed
with all lights burning and the name
of the ship and the American flags
painted on her sides clearly illuminat-
ed.
Saturday night lights were extin-
guished.

CHURCH ADVERTISING.

1t pays to advertise, whether the
advertisement is for a theater or q
church or a store. And the churches
are the last to awaken to this fact
Of course what the church has to offer
is a matter of public interest to the
community; but for that matter, so
is that which the milliner and the mer-
chant have to offer, and when the
church spends money for advertising
it has been proven in hundred cases
that the money spent was not for the
benefit of the newspaper half so much
as it was for the benefit of the public
and the church itself.
News comes from Wisconsin that
a minister in that state pays for a
large display space in his local
newspapers for advertisements fol
himself and the church he represents
and that as a result he has built ur
very strong church from a formerly
weak one, and that the difficulty ex.
perienced in raising small amount
of money to sustain poor. congrega
ton has been largely overcome by in
creasing the congregation and increas
ing the income. Now Nebraska pas
tor has followed in the same line. H,
keeps standing advertisement in thu
papers reading: Robert H. White
Presbyterian minister; friend of TIL
troubled; life work counselor" H,
says that advertising has brough
many of those outside the church t,
him for counsel and advice, and ha
doubled the attendance at his churcl
services. -

is PER CENT OF FRUIT in
THE STATE WAS FROSTED

that approximately IS per cent OF the
oranges and rs per cent of the grape
fruit remaining in the state were
more or less badly iced. 1t is estimat-
ed that there were about 100000
boxes of oranges and 100000 boxes of
grapefruit in the state.
In the northern tier of citrus coun-
ties, the loss of fruit was practically
total. In the next tier to the south
the loss appears somewhat less, al.
though 100 per cent is reported as
badly frosted in many localities here.
On the other hand, isolated groves re-
port the fruit saved by firing. Parts
of Pinellas, the northern part of Polk,
that part of Osceola southeast of Lake
I Tohopekaliga and Merits island, re-
port the fruit loss as light. The same
is true of the east coast south. A
considerable portion of the fruit is
being and will be shipped; just what
| this proportion will be is problemati-
cal.
Young groves suffered severely,
many being killed to the bank.

FLORIDA,S ADYANTAGEE

The diversity of the agricultural
products of Florida, coupled with
proximity to markets, gives this state
a great advantage. over all others. We
do not know that Florida can pro-
duce anything that cannot be produce
ed in California, but we are within one
thousand miles of New York, as com
, pared with three thousand for Cali
fornia. We are also with less than one
thousand by water, while California is
more than five thousand miles distant
This gives us an advantage, not only
in freight charges, but in the condition
in which we can get our products to
the market.
This diversity of products which this
state enjoys and which is shared by
only one other, and that from two to
five times as distant from the great
centers of population, makes it posi-
BILE for the agricultural class in this
state to avoid the over-production OF
one crop. We have nearly a million
PEOPLE in Florida. The soil of this
state could easily sustain fifteen mil
lion, and with a proper division of the
crops could sustain them without such
an over-production as would democrat
ize prices.
We can raise here the products OF
two zones. With the products of the
tropics, we have almost a monopoly
except as we have a competitor from
two to five times as distant from the
markets. This means we can get fol
such products anything in reason We
ask. But it would not mean this i
the state had three or four million
people, as it will have in generation
But the agricultural production of tn
state need not suffer when we reacl
this stage, for besides the fact tina
the demand for our tropical product
will have doubled or increased three
fold by that time, we will be able t
devote the greater part of our land t
the crops of the temperate zone. Gu
farmers can be self-sustaining, beside
supplying the people of the cities, an
can have their tropical products as
surplus crop always certain to brin
to the state vast sums of money an
nually.
Another great advantage is the fac
that in this state from two to fou
crops can be raised each year on tn
same land. That practically more tina
doubles our acreage and doubles tn
time for profitable farming.
The advantages of this state ar
becoming rapidly known. They ar
advertised without great cost to on
people. The hundreds of thousands
visitors to this state go away with
pretty good conception of what ca
