A LITTLE JOURNEY INTO SOUTH
FLORIDA
Continued from Page One.)

The Tribune has grown in the
course Of years from four pages to its
present size. but Il has grown no big
ger than the man behind it, Wallace
stovau has broadened out IN many
ways He mas developed wonderful
executive capacity, and while making
himself a master n business ne has
nor neglected The social amenities,
and is everywhere A social favorite.
Colonel StovaH seems TO possess an
intultive knowledge Of men. and this
rare gift has enabled him to surround
himself with good men VINO have
proven valuable factors in building up
the Tribune 10 the proud place it now
occupies IN Florida journalism. He
has 3een the chief owner OF the Trib- /
une Tor rwenty-three wears. and has |
men II his employment. some VINO
we're present 81 its christening. and
others ranging from ten to twenty
Years.
Besides being the 4enrv WattersOn
Of Florida journalism. Editor stovall
il imbued with the love of farm life.
and promises TO become as much Of
an authority on this line as the late
amiable sage OF Chappequa. VINO
wrote a treatise entitled. What II
Know About Farming" which was
pronounced 6y Editor Dana Of the
sun as the most brilliant work OF
fiction Of the century
Attached to Editor stovalls palatial
home IS a ten-acre plot Of ground.
which ne is having developed INTO al
farm. ana is preparing 10 compete fort
honors al the next state fair. provid-
ing Colonel Peter 0. knight enters the
lists.
Besides many llinds Of staple crops.
Editor StovaH has fine flock Of tur-
KEYS. geese. ducks. guineas. peafowls
and chickens
IN looking after his farm ana fowls
he dons his overalls ana does a full
share Of the work with MS own
hands
He religiously arises at four O'Clock
in the morning ana works until 9.
when he takes a bath. eats a light
breakfast and puts himself IN shape
for the duties ana exactions the Trib
une imposes.
He. has a rooster for which ne paid
fifty dollars, and all Of his fowls are
pure bred.
he also has two fine cows. which
supply his table with fresh milk and
butter and buttermilk daily.
Had the people of Florida acted
upon the advice Of this paper Colonel
Stovall would have been selected
some years ago for governor. and he
would have put Florida on a line Of
progress that would have made il
national by-word and a statue Of him
self IN the hall Of fame
The Everglades would have long
since been drained ana the system O9
good roads would have made automo-
bile travel so delightful that the
