ARE YOU BALANCED9

(From the Liberal Review.)
Large enough to include all In
love; small enough to treasure q sin
glc smile.
Broad enough to see from another's
viewpoint; narrow enough to uso
discretion in its acceptance.
Not so considerate of others as to
rob ones self; not so inconsiderate
as to refuse the slightest gift.
Never too high to bend to the low
est: never too low to aspire to the
highest.
Energetic, but not to the extent
that deprives another of doing: new
er so indolent as to allow another to
do ones own work.
Wise enough to know life's deep
er meaning; frivolous enough to en-
joy life's pleasures.
Fxtravagant enough to be sur
rounded by the beautiful; saving
enough to have no more than one
can fully appreciate.

MORE HOGS IN FLORIDA

Pork can be transported moro
readily and economically to the
troops in the field than can any 9TH
er meat. Great supplies Of bacon
must go to the boys in khaki at the
front. Unless now a larger number
of scws are bred, the amount Of meat
we will require next year will not be
available.
The estimated number of hogs is
100000 less than 1t was a year ago
in this country, and in the face Of
this we need more hogs than ever be-
fore. How can we get them? By
breeding sows at once.
The expectation of pork products
has increased since the war began
and will continue to increase during
the length of the war. The foreign
countries are devoting their farming
energies to food and feed rather than
livestock production, but they must
have meat and they must get large
part Of this supply from us.
During the last three months the
price of hogs in the United States has
been. on an average, more than twice
"a much as the average price for the
five years from 1911 to 1915. In
view of the large crop Of feedstufs
in sight. however, it is believed thai
farmers will see the wisdom Of TAX
inc every reasonable step to increase
the supply Of hogs and hog productS'

GREAT FUTURE FOR FLORIDA
Western Cattleman Writes Interest.
lnoly Of What He Saw on a Trip
Through Polk County

Cattle-raising in Florida as l saw
1t on thousand-mile tour of the cen
trail part of the State, is the subject
of an extensive and interesting arti
Gle by A. c. Williams, editor of The
Cattleman, which was published in
their September issue.
Mr.. Williams was a member of the
Texas party, which visited this part
of the State few weeks ago and the
following brief excerpts from his ar
ticle show the impression this section
of the State made on our welcome
visitors:
Mature has been very kind to Flor.
ida, providing delightful climate, fer.
tile lands and adequate rainfall for
farming purposes; broad prairies car
peted with succulent grasses and wat.
cred by running streams for live.
stock-raising
Among the neglected industries
none stand out more conspicuously
than stock-raising The native
cattle. inbred. stunted speciments OF
doubtful origin, have been turned
loose to rustic for themselves, and
little effort has been made in most
sections toward breed improvement.
Due to the mild climate, good range,
absence of screw worms, coyotes and
other pests, they have survived.
"A new era is dawning for the cat.
tie business in Florida. Systematic
tick eradication is being carried on,
We were on the headquarters ranch
of the Kssimmee Island Cattle Com.
pany. which Is one of Florida's larg.
est ranches. Their pastures were
we'll carpeted with several varieties
OF paspalum, with plenty of broad.
leaf, maiden cane wild millet and
other grasses in the marches. The
cattle were in good condition.
Leaving the property of the Kis-
simmee Island Cattle Company we
passed through the ranches of w. H.
Lewis and U. A. Lightsey, two prom
inent cattlemen of that section, who
have their ranches we'll fenced and
are improving the quality of their
cattle by the use of better bulls.
Passing through a broad belt of cut
over pine land we next came to a belt
of low white sand hills covered with
variety of trees and underbrush.
This, Mr.. Waddell said, was fine goat
land, but little farther on around
the beautiful little city of Lake Wales
we observed that in Florida they
have found it quite profitable to con.
vert this kind of land into orange
groves and sell the hillsides to east.
ern capitalists as sites for their win.
ter homes.
"The next twenty miles of our jour.
ney, from Lake Wales to Haines City,
l have not the power to describe.
Here along the asphalt paved road,
which winds its way over the hill
sides covered with beautiful orange
groves, and around the scores of
beautiful lakes whose clear, crystal
waters invite fishing, swimming and
boating, are the magnificent winter
homes of eastern capitalists, whose
gardeners devote their constant ener-
gies to the Identification Of the
grounds. The fragrance of the or.
ange blossoms. the orchid, the sweet.
scented jassamine and the magnolia
fill the air, and all Nature seems on
dress parade. At Haines City we
caught the noon train and was soon
speeding back to Jacksonville"

Women and Girls Can Help
Meet the Present Crisis

The women of America have
always borne their share of the
burden when the countrv was
facing a crisis, and they will do
their part in the present crisis if
they only know what they are
wanted to do.
The women can do a great
part now by planting large gar
dens to supply all the needs pos
sible of the home. then save the
surplus for the winter season by
canning and preserving all that
can be used. Let the variety Of
canned and preserved fruits and
vegetables be the visible meas
ure of your comprehension of
your national duty.
The women and girls can also
help by pushing poultry work in
their clubs and out Of them.
Every chicken or dozen eggs
produced will take the place of
several pounds of meat in the
the farm home. and if sold to
your town sisters will save beef
and pork that can be used for
soldiers on the battle fields of
Europe. Raise chickens and
more chickens.
