WHENCE THE OPPOSITION?

1t begins to- look as though De.
Soto county win be divided by the
next legislature and the Lord knows
she needs to be divided. Many Flor
ida counties are too large for their
own good. Winter Haven Chief.
County division in all large coun-
ties is only opposed by those who
have selfish motives in their opposi-
tion. AS a rule they are politicians
or officeholders, who have pulled
down in fees sums of money far in
advance of the value of their SER
vices. That the men who foot the
bills may be compelled to spend sew
eral days in making the trip to the
county seat in order to pay taxes or
transact other business makes no diff
ference to them. The fact that thou
sands of cattle and much other tax
able property escapes the notice of
the tax assessor matters naught to
them. The larger the county the
larger the amount of fees collected.
All else matters naught. -Manatee

HUCKLEBERRIES in FLORIDA
PAY WE'LL

Crestview-M. A. Sapp, of this
place, has proved that huckleberries
in Florida are paying crop when
properly looked after. All the fruit
of this kind is easily disposed of, and
the markets are always ready to give
the highest prices, according to fig
ures which the enterprising Ocka-
loosa county man has confided to his
friends.
Mr. Sapp began to ship on May 10
last and finished about the last of
August, and the crop netted $605.85.
That does not mean the entire crop,
for he has been liberal with friends
and relatives, and has also set aside
a considerable amount in berry bush
es, he said, "but this crop was gath
cred from about half of the orchard !,
as the other half are young trees and
are just coming in. want to make
this statement for the benefit of the
many people who are interested in
wild fruits of Florida, so they may
know that Florida is fruit garden"

The club contest will be held on
Nov. l5. Plans are being made to
hold a miniature county fair in con-
nection with the contest, and the

Census supervisors state that they
are finding much difficulty in secur-
ing enough enumerators to take the
census of 1920. Each congressional
district of Florida needs approxima-
tely two hundred enumerators, but
the prospects are that not half that
number will be secured. The
reasons for this are, first, the tempor-
ary character of the work, which is
to be done in January; and, second,
the remuneratico is not higl, enough
to prove attractive to competent
persons. The time for filing appli-
cations for appointment as enumer-
ators expired on the 18th irst.

DIFFICULTIES OF
THE CENSUS.

The Supervisor of the Census fol
the First Congressional District oi
Florida, whose headquarters are In
Punta Gorda. in an interview with
Ihe Herald, says that, had he
known in advance the difficulties
and responsibilities attaching to his
work. he would never have under
taken 1t. Chief of his troubles is
the lmpossibility of getting men and
women enough to take the Census.
TO engage in the actual work of emu
meration.
This, he says, is due to two
reasons, viz: First, the fact that the
pay OF enumerators is the same now
as 1t was ten years ago, in 1910.
Wnen dollar would buy twice as
much as it does now Second. the
work IS only temporary, lasting from
Jany. End to Feby. 3rd, 1920,

demand in all lines of activity and
at pay better than the census offers

10 county officials and civic bodies in

Up to Tuesday of this week 13O
formal applications for Census emu
merators had been filed in district
headquarters. OF these, a consider
able number will refuse to take the
test examinations, which are to be
held during next week, and some
who do take the examination will
fall to pass. This will leave less
than hundred who are to do the
work in January; whereas. about
two hundred are needed.
After today, under the rules and
regulations, no application for an
polntment as census enumerators
will be accepted. The time limit ex- :
