keep it SO. We have 81 100000 ap-
irroIriated to make and keep the fin

fourth year as agent. In the first
year it was uphill business. We had
quite lot of Florida crackers. They
all knew how to farm. They all knew
that to raise corn you must pillow the
ground shallow We got them inter

The boys were beating them all hol-
low on raising corn and how to do
IL was their question to us. The ia
Tiers had been raising "a or %
bushels to the acre; the first year
our boys average was 80 bushels per
acre. the second 42.7, the third 1911.
We soon saw that this work was a
lever: it led majority Of the farm
ers to turn into corn and to lead to
building up the soils. The pig work
ais had similar good effect Polk
county's commissioners have been
good enough 10 give the boys quite a
Let of money to help in their wrk.

Brother Weaver that Frostproof was

the part Of some farmers to let II

the grass. There are 500 acres
planted to this crop this year.
Mr.. Lewis said later that he had
urged particular care in the selec-

three hundred bushels an acre were
raised.

Second, perhaps, only to that
which would greet the lifting of the
war clouds that hang ever the coun-
try, is the relief of the people that
the threatened nationwide strike
has been averted. II is greatly 10
the credit of the railroad managers
that they were moved by patri Tie
considerations to make concessions
that prevented conditions which
would have been more intalerable to
the people of the country as a whole
than those that might be brought
about by war with a fGrei power.
1t is to the credit of the railroad
men of this section, so far as we have
had opportunity to hear expression,
that they were anxious to avoid q
strike under the present conditions
of the country. In any event, i'm
mediate danger of such a calamity is
now over, and ii is 10 be hoped that
such an adjustment may be agreed
upon as will prevent any recurrence
OF such an unpleasant possibility for
many a day to come.
