Why Lemons are Not Grown in
Florida

Why Florida is not a lemon
producing state is answered by j.
&C.. Chase, of Chase Co. of Jackson
vile, who has during the long
operation of the company, made a
thorough study of the lemon in
dustry of the state. In answer to
an article that appeared in one of
the state papers, he says:
eff the writer of that article
has any money he wishes to use in
growing lemons, we could con-
vince him that Florida can grow
a lemon of the very finest quality,
but unfortunately people who
have attempted lemon growing in
the past have not made money for
the following reasons:
"First-The Florida lemon tree
blooms with the Florida orange
trees, and the Florida lemon crop
natures during the months of Oc-
tober, November and December,
when the price of lemons is on the
decline.
"Second-The lemon tree is
more susceptible to frost damage
than the orange tree, and if fire.
quently happens that a late frost
would destroy the bloom or the
young fruit and there would be no
crop for year.
Commercial growing of lem
ons in Florida was carried ON at o
financial loss by the following:

Bellalr grove, near Sanford. The

Sampson, at one time owner of a
large lemon grove at Safety Har-
Dor, now belonging to R. j.

unprofitably for several seasons,
and then converted the trees into
a grapefruit grove.

PREVENTION OF DISEASE
Vaccination Against Typhoid Fee
yer and Smallpox

The following advice coming
from the United States Public
j Health Service should be read by
the public, and the Florida State
Board of Health wishes to empha-
size this method of preventive
medicine.
"From the standpoint of health
conservation and labor efficiency,
1T is imperative that such commu-
nicable diseases as smallpox and
typhoid fever be prevented in
all establishments manufacturing
materials for the Federal govern
ment. This is of special impor-
lance at the present time in view
of the constant movement of labor
from one locality to another,
which facilitates so greatly the
spread of disease.
"The experience of every civil
lied country shows that complete
protection is furnished against
smallpox by vaccination, and tenn
porary immunity against typhoid
by incubation with typhoid vac
cine.
"In order to prevent such dis
eases, upon the recommendation
of the surgeon general of the u
nited States Public Health Ser
vice, persons in charge of plants
engaged in the manufacture of
war materials are urged to re-
qulre every person employed un-
der them to be vaccinated against
and inoculated against
typhoid fever, as now done in the
case of our military forces.
"The medical staff should be
to take the necessary
steps for the enforcement of these
measures. The need for them has
been demonstrated by the
occurrence of isolated outbreaks
Ct smallpox in establishments en-
gagged in the production of war
materials through imported labor.
These outbreaks not only cause
the quarantine of the personnel,
but also interfere seriously with |
the production of materials neces- |
sary to the conduct Of the war
1.-THE public health service is
ready to cooperate in enforcing
these measures and any persons
calling at any of the service sta
ions, Will, on request, be vacci-
lated against smallpox or typhoid
ever free of cost. State Board |

The new law fixing the postage
on newspapers causes extra work
and trouble not only to publishers
and postmasters, but also to the
railway mail clerks, for. if the pa
pers are made up and tied out for
mailing according to the zone sys-
TEN, as the law apparently con-
templates, the railway clerks will
have to unite every package and
re-distribute according to states
and mail routes. This would de-
lay papers in reaching subscrib-
ers.

Here s a unanimous and sincere
vote Of thanks to those splendid
metropolitan daily papers, the
Tampa Times, Tampa Tribune
and Jacksonville Times Union, for
continuing to exchange with the
rural weeklies. Without those
great dailies, a country editor
would be seriously handicapped !:
he could not keep up with the
news and sentiment Of the world
or of Florida, nor could he make
his own paper very newsy and in
teresting. The publishers Of the
South Florida Press Association,
at their meeting last Friday, de-
cided to continue the exchange
system, as it is essential to the
successful conduct of their bust
ness. But few of them are able
to subscribe and pay for the many
Florida papers which it is neces-
sary for them to have.
