Some fellow has denounced Tenant
farming as slavery. Yet the land owner
living in town on the income from his
rented farm, paying taxes, insurance
and keeping up repairs, finds that hts
income, figured in a matter Of dollars
and cents on the investment Is not
great thing. The conclusion seems to
be that neither can get IL all, There
must be a split, and each is entitled to

IKaIer's Kurrent kOmmentS

Among the many winter visitors
who are seeing Punta Gorda this
season, we hope that there is one,
or more, who can see the posi-
bilities of the place on account OF
its very favorable situation; its
idea, climatic advantages and its
health-giving water and atmos-
phcrc snd purchase lots or land to
later build factories, cottages,
etc. A sugar refinery is a crying
need, and we have thousands of
acres that will produce good
quality of sugar cane in abund-
ance. Then sardine cannery
and shrimp cannery would be
able to get all the materials nee
essary for success in plenty and
at the right kind of prices. why
men can't see these things we do
not understand. They stand out
like a pine stump in cleared
| field. A sanitarium and hospital
would be another thing that
would pay big and attract people
from all over the world. Where
are your eyes, men?
The mail order catalogue has
taken the place of the family bi--
BILE in many homes in these days
of high prices. People cannot
know when prices are high be-
cause it is necessary and when
they are high on account of prof
iteering. By consulting the cata-
logue, they readily discover when
they are overcharged, and it is a
near-sighted merchant who thinks
that he can practice profiteering
and not be found out and his
trade injured thereby for all time
to come. We have heard some
woman of our acquaintance call
the catalogue a. "wish book. In
every community there are people
who wish to profit by the supposed
Ignorance of their patrons and
they may make this season of
fuctuating and high prices the
mail order houses opportunity.
These mail order houses are not
asleep and believe firmly in adver-
tising and are not afraid to adver-
tise the prices on their goods.
1t takes sixty pounds of Irish
or sweet potatoes to make bush
el, according to the ruling of
those who fix the weights and
measures. We heard woman
state a few weeks ago that when
she bought peck of potatoes, she
only received fourteen pounds.
This was a mistake on the part of
the merchant-or worse. Another
thing, when you call for a gallon
of syrup and receive a can con-
|taining ten pounds, the man who
sells it to you is laying himself
liable to fine.
