The personal peregrinatlons OF
this editor are of little, If any IN
terest to his readers, but in this
instance they would be, If ne
could only present clear pictures
of the festivities in which he par
ticipated and the grand scenery
which he enjoyed during his
three-days outing last week IN
Lake county with the State Press
Association. 1t is due to the no.
BILE people with whom that county
is blessed that he tell something
about their delightful hospitality,
their splendid roads, magnificent
lakes, glorious landscapes and
other attractions that combine to
make their county one OF the love-
liest and best in the world.
The chief object of the annual
meetings of the State Press Asso-
citation is to have a good time, and
the members this year certainly
attained their object when they
met in Lake county. This editor
knew that this would be the case,
and that is why he attended.
Thursday morning, there was
brief session Of the association in
the big armory at Leesburg. AT
2:30 p. m., DR.. Lincoln Hulley,
president of Stetson University,
delivered in fascinating manner
a splendid lecture on the life and
work of Eugene Field, after
which the stores closed and every
body went to the base ball ground
and witnessed an excellent game
between Leesburg and Eustis
teams. Leesburg won by score
Of 3 to 2.
At night, an informal dance in
the armory was greatly enjoyed
by a large number of visitors and
citizens. Some of the visitors
who did not dance were taken out
on moonlight ridessin automobiles.
Friday morning, the visitors,
about hundred in number, were
taken in cars on drive through
the splendid orange groves and
past the beautiful residences east
Of town. This was between the
two big lakes, Harris and Griffin,
and through romantic forests, and
the panorama of waters cleaning
through the foliage Of giant oaks
and other trees made scene one
not soon to be forgotten. The
drive ended at the Lake Harris
dock where the Eustis board of |
trade had a boat waiting for the
party. 4
Then came delightful ride of
eighteen miles across Lake Harris,
through Dead River, the channel
that connects the two, and across
Lake Eustis to a natural live-oak
park lying on the lake shore just
out of town. Here beneath these
great trees a dinner fit for kings
was served by those blessed Eus-
It's folks, and the scribes did full
justice to it. There was chicken
in abundance, ever so many side
dishes, cake, ice cream, lemonade
and coffee, and joy all around.
1t should be said that Eustis
put on regular 4th of July decora-
tions in honor of the editors. Ev-
erywhere one looked, Old Glory
was conspicuous.

Sugar Cane Will GrOlU
In all Parts of Florida
Very Profitable Crop
Requires but Little Cultivation Needs Replantng
Seven or More Years.-Ten Thousand Pounds of
Sugar per Acre.-Best Varieties to Plant

its use with intelligent manage
ment is the biggest paying prac-
tice one can utilize. For maxi
mum growth cane requires dry at
mospheric conditions, warmth,
and abundant soil moisture, all of
which increases the Transportation
of water, the food carrier, from
the leaves, and augments growth.
In Florida we have one Of the
most favorable climates in the
world for the growth of cane,
most of the rain falling in the
summer time when at the period
OF maximum growth it is most
needed.
DR.. w. G. Stubbs, noted sugar
expert, states that cane should
have about forty-fve inches of
water or rainfall distributed over
the 90 to 100 days of maximum
cane growth. The average Florl-
ola rainfall is fifty-two inches per
year. Frequently when we ex-
pect the rainy season it fails to
materialize, and at such times ir-
rigation would pay very well.
In Hawaii, it is stated by G. Ly-
man Spencer, there have been
realized under scientific culture,
irrigation and manufacturing,
yields Of 10000 pounds of sugar
per acre, which, according to
Hawaiian averages would mean
about seventy tons of cane per
acre. Florida soils and climate
are both better adapted to cane
culture than those Of Hawaii, and
with irrigation here plus scientific
methods, we should be able to.
equal their yields. State Chemist
r. K. Rose obtained maximum
yield of sixty tons of cane on his
sugar plantation, at st. Cloud,
Florida. J.
In general, according to Noel
Deer, the foremost authority on
cane in the world, it takes 100
gallons Of water for each pound
OF sugar produced. This would
mean 5000 gallons per ton of
cane. Spencer says, Whenever
it has been possible to control. the
water supply, enormous yields of
cane and sugar have been secured
in the different sugar cane sec
tions of the world" Most Of the
fatwoods land, Everglades and
low hammock land in Florida can
be irrigated very cheaply, either
from artesian wells or from ada
cent lakes.
The average cost of irrigation
in Hawaii. according to T. J.
Sheridan, is $67.91 per acre, an
expense compared with
that of cane growing in Florida.
The farmer who means to engage
in cane growing as his principal
vocation should by all means, pro-
vide for irrigation, and thus get
double the yield per acre.
With most varieties OF cane, the
nature joints are indicated by the
following or dropping off Of the
caves. Immature joints, near the
op have large content of glu-
ose, which prevents maximum
when making sug-
r, but which adds to the ease of
yrup making. Hence, for sugar
laking, top the cane low and for
yrup making top it high.
Harvest in North Florida be-
.ins about November l to Is, in
entral Florida about December /,
nd in tropical Florida it may be
elayed until January to March

Pensacolian have been compiled.
Stepher Russell Mallory was born
on the island of Trinidad. West In
dies in 1872. As boy he moved with
his parents. natives of Pennsylvania,
to Key West, Florida. He was educated
in the schools of Alabama and Naz-
areth. Penn, and early gave indi-
cation of those talents which made
him leader. even before the declara-
ton of war between the states.
Mr.. Mallory represented Florida in
the United States senate from 1851 to
1851. In the latter year Florida seced-
ed from the union, and he was ap-
pointed secretary of the Confederate
navy. His only preparation was his
experience as chairman of the senate
committee of naval affairs. Never
the less, he showing great executive
ability in promoting the construction
and arming of the Confederate navy
Mr. Mallory took charge of the navy
department in March. 1861 At this
time the question of the ironclad had
the attention of naval builders on both
sides of the Atlantic. He was most
active in founding enterprises both
at home and abroad, for the construc-
ton of vessels. and throughout his
term of office served with marked
distinction.
At the close of the Civil war, Sec
tary Mallory was imprisoned, but in

DIR. Kennedy was with the British
troops in France, serving at the Cam
brai front. in the evacuation casualty
clearing station under Col J. Harti-
gan. On his returning to this country,

Mrs. William Fisher was a member
of the Red Cross committee which had
charge of the Saturday evening en-
tertainments held at the army and
navy club, under the auspices of the
war camp community service, during
the war. 1t is interesting to note hero
that Mr.. Fisher held one of the most
responsible legal assignments in tho
gift of the government, having been
one of the special representatives Of
the secretary of war, to present the
claims of the war department against
France, England and Italy, working in
conjunction with the United States
liquida ton committee.

Paris that the long range lombard
ment and a number of the most seri-
Gus air raids were experienced.

States army.
Misses Cora Mallory and Kathleen

to Pensacola, where he was engaged
in the practice of law until his death
in 1873. He lies at rest in old St
Michaers cemetery, a spot hallowed by
tradition and history. and one of the
most interesting landmarks of the old
Pensacola.
, While In prison at Fort La Fayette
Secretary Mallory wrote to his wife:
t.Au my political life is known. My
free from word or sentiment of seces-
sion or disunion. but filled with evil
dences of the contrary. / never was
in my state legislature, never advised
her secession. always deplored it, al

You may well remember how my views
upon these points subjected me to
the odium of the extremists. and how
my interference to prevent the attack
on Fort Pickens brought down the
thunders of denunciation. ! am anxious
to take the oath of allegiance and do
what can to evoke order from chaos,
and In good faith to aid the admis-
tration to harmonic the country"
1t is interesting in view of the ser
vice of this distinguished Floridian
during the civil war, and his express
sion of loyalty on the close OF hostil-
titles, to the country against the gov

"RoDIoN, THE STUDENT Thi.

hOGION' iHC -JCNl l HIS, I submit, that I am about to relate, IS an anomaly in literature tkat is some what astonishing. About D years ago I was intensely interested in the acting of Richard Mansfield. l had seer every crama and tragedy, l believe. that lie played in New York and Chicago. It was source of surprise to Mansfields friends. one winter, when announce ment was made that the great trage- dian would stage Rodion, the S.u- dent" No one had ever heard of the tragedy; the authors name was Lor disclosed; little advance information leaked out as to what is was to be. It can be imagined, therefore that it's premiere in Chicago was regarded as an event"
 My recollection of the plot is vague. although the thrill and weirdness of the masterly acting of Mansfield and his wife, then Beatrice Cameron, has never left me. Most unusual, in the rendition of this tragic production, was the second act, during which not a per son appeared upon the stage. Instead a street scene in a Russian city was shown, indicating midnight. In the window of one of the second floors of a quaint old house. there was a lone light. The street was dim in the moon light. Every eye in the audience, ob- viously, was fixed upon the lighted window. Through it there came the muffled noises of a woman in fear; then the yell of a man. apparently in great fright. As l remember, there were few words spoken, foremost of them being this dialogue:
 Please don't kill him so The plea of a womans voice.

RECKONING ROADS C

is a book of the type that thousands of people read without it's becoming best seller or anything like hest seller IL is interesting while you reaG it and soon forgotten after the reading. Its sole appeal lies in the situations created in il. the manner of telling the story having little charm for q lover of literature.
 The book centers about Marquita Shay, born of an Irish father and q Spanish mother, and left in infancy the ward of a French American. John Gratiot. who undertakes to rear the child and make a fortune on his Cana dian ranch at the same time. Narquita grows up into girlhood without know ing the companionship of women, and thinking she knows something about men.
 The tale really begins in s. Louis. when Marquta becomes the friend oi Humphrey Wells, son of the man who has purchased her guardians ranch. Old Wells, incidentally, is the only character in the book who seems to have any vistage of life, and he appears as a religious fanatical old crook of the business world.
 To avoid going to school. Marquita marries young Humphrey and goes 10 New York with him. where she agaln meets n Mrs. Chisholm. a modern Wom an. according to the author. Jeanne Judson. Marquita finds married life unhappy when she returns to St. Louis to live with her parents-in law, and 1 finally runs away to New York. And all this at IS, mind you.
 After that Marquita passes through
