Tick eradication is one OF the big
things that it is certain you Lakeland
people are going to back up heartily.
The great opportunity for cattle rails
ing is right here in Florida. There is
plenty OF land that for lack OF better
use. can be utilized for this purpose
Then. IL we intend seriously TO raise
meat, let US not permit the tick 10
take away forty per cent OF our pro-
duct Florida is indeed lucky in hav,
ing had the government send them
such able men. as they have among
them, looking after this vital matter
With kindest regards and best wish

of Lakeland an all-year-round resort,

Very truly yours.
