Good seed is becoming scarce. Next

from now on. The U. S. Department
OF Agriculture is endeavoring to Sc
cure information as to where, seeds
may be obtained, says l.. NJ. Rhodes,
| State Marketing Commissioner. Good
crops are possible only when good
seeds are used. Prof. P. H. Rolls, di-
rector of our State Experiment Sta
ton. in his new book entitled Sub
tropical Vegetable Gardening" urges
the saving of homegrown seed as
well as testing samples before plant
ing. Producers in the State who may
have seeds for sale are requested tc

peaches between the rows of citrus
trees. One would not interfere with
the other, and mighty good peaches
can be grown by this plan. A man
who would bring wagon-load of

would sell them at anything like a
reasonable price would be almost
mobbed by the people in their eager

PUNY ATTACKS ON W. ]. BRYAN
MONTGOMERY Times.l

montgomery Tlmes.)
1t makes us smile when some little
two-by -four newspaper jumps up AMI
tries to impugn the motives of Will
liam ]. Bryan on the prohibition ques-
ton.
Everybody knows that Bryan has
been prohibitionist for many years
past and his record for straightfor-
wardness in politics has never been
questioned.
Bryan and Wilson are the two
greatest living Americans.
Because the great Nebraskan had
record he could not be elected pres
ident. Everybody knew his views and
his political enemies were numerous
enough to defeat him on that account.
Webster, Clay, Calhoun Blaine and
other great Americans are in the same
category with Bryan.
A few years ago when the great
parties met to nominate a ticket for
president and vice-president, it was
known fact they wanted men with
out records.
This is one reason so many men
OF mediocre ability have been placed
in the presidential chair.
Mr.. Bryan's attitude on prohibit"
ton has been so well known for a
number of years no one has doubted
for moment how he stood on the
question Of State and national prohi-
bition.
He has announced from the house
tops that he was for prohibition in
any form it came up; he is for the
abolition of the liquor traffic.
You may not agree with William ]
Bryan on all that he has done anC
said in his long public career, Ever!

The news that a billion bushel
wheat crop is in sight is most en-
couraging. Our personal interest in
wheat is purely academic, having
some time back cheerfully given up
such Injuries as white bread or bis
cults, but we are rejoiced that this
great crop will be available for our
fighting forces and our allies. Food is
as necessary to victory as ammuni-
ton, and it looks like God and the
American farmer land we say this
reverently) have entered into a coali,
ton against the Hun.

We will never be satisfied that a
city market is not a good thing for
Lakeland until it is tried out. Not an
elaborate atiair--merely place where
farmers can back their wagons
against the curb and let people come
and buy poultry, eggs, butter, vege-
tables, fruit, etc, direct from the pro-
Queer. Sanford has such a market
and it is very popular the idea being
a great success; Orlando and Miami
will also try the plan. But it seems
hard to get it started here.

TasebIatt Says Economic Life Of A.
lies 10 "compIetely Upset."

London. Jan. 13.-Reviewing the
first year of Germany's ruthless sub.
marine campaign. which ends Feb. 1,
the Tageblatt asserts that the Central
Powers have"succeeded in completely
upsetting the economic life of the En-.
tente. and adds that the submarine
campaign, which has now become the
principal factor in naval warfare, is
being expanded and developed still
further.
Summarizing the results of the I'm.
derwater campaign since Feb. 1. the
Tageblatt claims that U-boats have
sunk on an average S21,O tons OF
shipping monthly from February to
December. and for the whole wear the
toll may be expected to show nearly
l0,oOO,OO0 tons, and that the building
OF new ships by the Entente and neu.
trails during the year will replace only
between 100000 and 1000, 900 tons
of these losses.
The newspaper says the monetary
loss of Germany's enemies as the rc.
suit of the years work by the U.boats
will reach $5,ooo.ooo,ooo, figuring the
value Of the ships at $3.50 per ton and
their cargoes at the same rate.
