WHY STORES THAT

When man gets out after trade
he gives the impression that be has
initiative and enterprise. He Is evil

father or the merchant across the
street did last year. So the man who
advertises shows that he Is locking
for new customers, new trade and for
new friends.
The public take kindly to that type
Of men. They believe that spirit
will be to their advantage. They feel
that the man who shows a 60 ahead
spirit in his selling, will show It in
his buying, too. They feel that the
same initiative will lead him to take
extra effort to get values at the low
est possible prices, and to give his
customers the advantage.
They feel that the man whose mi
tiative is proved by his advertising
will show that enterprise by Offering
his goods as specially good values
That is why newspaper advertising

GRAPEFRUIT JUICE DEMANDED

Being advised by a competent au
thority that grapefruit juice was
fine, cooling dring for sufferers with
influenza, the Tribune several days
ago called editorial attention to TINS
fact, and intimated that there are
several grapefruit juice factories In
the State which could supply the de-
mand for these needed and refresh
ing drinks. Several Of the papers
throughout the State have taken up
the word and are passing along the
information for the benefit OF the
sufferers.
But. strange as it may seem, the
manufacturers are neglecting neces-
sary publicity to place this product
in every home as it should be. Inc
Collins Canning Company, an enter
prising Lakeland concern, has Of
fered the first advertisement which
The Tribune has been able to see
pointing out where this needed bev'
erage can be obtained.
Are the manufacturers OF this pro
duct blind to their own advantage
or are they holding their product fol
higher price? They should no
count on the public ferreting then
out and forcing them to sell.
The Collins Canning Company o
Lakeland is probably one OF TN
Youngest of the manufacturers Of thi'
product, but the extensive buildings
and equipment provided for at an ex
rense of 100000, of which $4,000 ha'
already been expended, shows that
is one of the most potent and per
manent institution.
This company enjoys the dlstinc
ton Of finishing grapefruit pro
duct that is perfectly clarified, whicl
they claim is 100 per cent. free iron
any matter that could cause sedi
ment even after it has been bottle'
for months.
The Florida grapefruit has
strangely unidentified aperient qual
ity and is both saline and an acid
and the kind and quality OF eacl
seems to be fitted especially by ma
ture for human need in time of sue
illness as is sweeping over the LAND
and in convalencence generally. For
tunately the earlier ripening OF tn
grapefruit this year in this Stat
places in reach Of the needy ones
great quantity of the finest and tn
most refreshing beverage in tn

COMMON SENSE AND
A FLORIDA HOME

During the past several years, we
have received several thousand let
tiers from parties who have asserted
themselves interested in the idea OF
home in Florida, and 1t seems
strange that while greater part OF
these enquirers show that they are
normal and ordinary intelligent peo-
ple, yet 1t does seem as II when
strangers away write asking about
Florida, they seem to think that con-
ditions exist with us different from
in any other locality. Many great
man seems to think he can come and
succeed in Florida without any cap
ital. That our people are SO anxious
to have new people come to live
among us that they will willingly d.
vide what property they have and
practically give away our property
simply to induce new people to come
And make homes with us. How such
...-----y -~------~----.S--,~---ss--
people who would be most benefited
by making the move to our country
would consider the same as a sane
and business-like move and start
from such a starting point, they
might arrive. If they would consider
that particularly In our part Of the
State very large proportion Of our
most successful residents are people
from the north, all over the south
from Maine to California, and all ov-
er the Southern States, too, that
nearly all came with but little cap
ital but with an earnest intention to
work and to succeed, they would
start with with the right idea. That
practically all of our people have
succeeded, that there are more hap
Ply contented homes here than per-
haps in any other part of the world,
is largely because we have the kind
OF people who, given opportunity,
would succeed anywhere. But in the
old country, meaning the older COM
munities of both north and south,
success even where every possible eff
fort is made honestly seems impossi-
BILE for want of more capital, and
largely because the older parts of
our country are oyercrowded. Palm
