WILL KEEP ALL
CITRUS FRUITS
FROM GOING
TO WASTE

IL Will De SOOu HcWo W Inv oAS'
ers of citrus fruits and other soil
products to learn that the plant OF
the Collins Canning Company is
nearing completion, and that soon
there will be a market for much that
has in the past gone to waste, II
indeed it was not liability. 1t will
be good news to the city people who
will enjoy the products Of the plant,
and will not in the future have TO
depend on the north for many of the
food products that can better be pro-
duced here. 1t will be good news to
the home people who are looking for
ward to securing employment in the
new canning factory. 1t will be good
news to every resident Of Lakeland
and vicinity when this plant is run
ming successfully, using the products
which have mostly gone to waste in
the past, and paying for them with
good hard cash. This will mean very
much to our people.
1t is a we'll known fact that there
is an ever increasing demand for
high grade citrus products of all
kinds, and especially the grapefruit
juice and the citrus fruit marmalades.
The clarified grapefruit juice that the
Collins Canning Company has pro-
duced with it's own special machinery
is the only juice that stands up to
all the requirements of first class
Juice. All of the other juices pro.
duced in the State contain a bad
precipitation after a time which
seems to practically spoil the juice
The appearance is very unattractive
and the taste is much impaired. They
have succeeded in perfectly clarity
ing the juice by mechanical means
without the use of any chemicals
whatever. This is an accomplish
ment Of which they are very proud
as experts have been working in the
Department of Agriculture. at Wash
ington, for some years on this very
problem. and so far have failed to &C
somplish anything satisfactory. They
have been testing this juice for q
year or more and have kept it under
all sorts of conditions with a view o1
determining how it would act. They
are highly delighted with the results
They have juice that will keep in
definitely exactly as it is extracted
from the fruit. without the addition
Of anything whatever.
Many people cannot believe they
have accomplished this without add
Ing some preserving or clarifying
agent, but they surely have. and tha
is what makes their juice so far su
perior to all the other grapefruit
juices SO far produced. This yer.
Juice is the article that is going t.
put the city of Lakeland and the Col
lin Canning Company on the map.
They have succeeded in perfectin,
products that will use all of tn,

fruit even including the seeds. The

feel we'll satisfied with their Efforts
in regard to the grapefruit, and are
now working on products to take as
we'll care of the orange. They have
produced an orange marmalade, that
is all right. The juice they propose
to use in the manufacture Of vinegar.
This makes the finest vinegar we
have ever seen, much superior to the
apple cider vinegar, and admitted
last winter by a number of vinegar
manufacturers from the North. For
use in their pickle products it could
not be of finer quality. And they
don't grind up any worms in this
vinegar either. They are working
now on an orange pie filling. They
have visions of perfecting this to a
point where they can sell it to the
bakers, hotels and restaurants
throughout the country. If they sue
ceed in this they will have the or
ange at their command as they have
now the grapefruit.
The fruit used by the Collins Can
ming Company is the Gull and drop
fruit. now an absolute loss to the
grower, and yet as fine fruit as ever
graced family table-simply cannot
be shipped on account of some blem'
ish on the skin or the fact that it
dropped from the tree instead Of be-
ing clipped.
Here Is Something to Start You
Thinking
And is one of the most convincing
arguments in favor of the Collins
Canning Company proposition in
Lakeland.
Within a few miles of the Canadian
line in Watertown, N. Y, very large
Grapefruit Marmalade plant is in ac'
tive operation and has been for three
years. 1t is a very successful con-
Germ, growing rapidly and is today
supplying Grapefruit Marmalade IN
carload lots. The fruit all must
come from Florida or further away
and the price they pay is from three
times to six times what our factory
can secure it for. Still they make
money and are growing larger every
day.
Mr.. T. A. Shirriff, President Of the
Imperial Extract Co., of Toronto, Can
ada, spent a few weeks last winter In
Lakeland. He became much interested
in our Company. A large part ol
their business is the manufacture oi
Orange Marmalade. All the oranges
they use come from Seville, Spain
and yet they have built business
Of immense proportions paying large
returns to their investors.
We publish the above to show thu
possibilities and probabilities Of the
Collins Canning Company paying
large dividends to it's stockholders
All that seems necessary is for tn,
Company to have sufficient financia
backing to make the start in q larg'
enough way to overcome the over
head expenses which necessaril,
must be with any manufacturing con
cern.
The company is not by any mean
depending on the citrus fruits alon
to keep the plant running all tn
year around, although the citru
fruits form the basis of the busines!
A great deal of time has been col
sumed in perfecting other product
to fill in the time between the citru

Time Is The Test.
The Testimony of Shepherdstown

ShepherdStown people appreciate merit,

licly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills; they
do so still: Would a citizen make the
statement which follows unless convinced
that the article was just as represented ?
Below is testimony such as the sufferer
from kidney ills is looking for.
Mrs. Neltie V. Turner, Rocky ST.,
Shepherdstown, says: "My kidneys were
weak and ! suffered from backaches.

Pharmacy, made me well. recommend
their use to anyone suffering from kidney
trouble" Statement given November
7, 1910.

ALTHOUGH the manufacture OF whiskey
has been stopped in the United States,
the breweries, practically all ofwhich are
owred and operated by Germans OF more
or less patriotism, are still running al
full blast. They ought to be put out of
business too. for they are not only using
up valuable and needed foodstuffs, but
they are directly corrupting our people
and neutrality-suspicious. directly also
helping the Kaiser's cause. The thing
that has made Milwaukee famous is un-
doubleday the thing that has made Sen
ator LaFollette infarous, and it should
have no place in our country, particularly
at this time.
Put the breweries out of business, too.

A NUMBER OF coal operators have closed
their mines because the government has
fixed the rate for their product at the mine
at 81 90 a ton-which is about twice as
much as they receive in normal times
This is where the government should
step right in and run the mines under Its
own supervision.

EACH day our government reveals
some new form oftreachery and duplIcity
on the part of Germans who were in Of
fetal position in the United States. and a
good many half-hearted Americans are
involved in their plots and rascalities.
Our government is strangely lenient with
certain un-American subjects who have
been Caught with the goods" and they
are not being punished, apparently, in
the degree that their crimes call for.
These friends OF the Kaiser's should not
be left at large, for there is still evidence
that poisoners and bombers are at work,
and there is headquarters somewhere.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way TO cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mucous
lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when It
is entirely closed Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases OF deafness are caused oy
caiarrti, which is an inflamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars Tor
any case OF Catarrhal Deafness that can
moi be cured by Halls Calarrhr Medicine.

THE railroads have renewed their ap-
plication TO the Interstate Commerce
Commission for permission 10 increase
freight rates. With all the lines carrying
freight to their fullest capacity, and with
every car and engine that can turn a

thing radically wrong with the railroad
that isn't making good money these pros
porous times.
Increased freight rates is no remedy for
incompetent management.
