as likely to be a failure the coming
season as a success.
If, however, the farmer has deter
mined that he will grow wheat this
spring, it is important that he get il
planted as early as the land can be
put in shape. If it cannot be planted
early it seems clear that some other
crop should be substituted.
Data from the Wooster station alst
show that good home grown spring
wheat originally imported from thu

from the North each year.

OF Camping Trip
To East Coast
(By @. n. ''Maizs.)

It was on Feb. 5, 1918, that my

East Coast and Broward county see I
ton Of the Everglades Of Florida.
We were gone just fourteen days re-

We left Lakeland at about 8 a. m .
fully equipped for Florida camping

were one Ford truck, two burner oil

blankets, pillows, cooking utensils,
dishes, collapsible table, shotgun
fishing tackle, one tarpaulin of can

chairs, set of skid or sand chains
(which we didn't NEEDY chopping axe
(sharp), hammer, nails, necessary
tools for general repair, one extra
tire and two extra tubes, and one
gallon OF emergency oil. We Travelled
along atga lively clip until near Au

was uneyentful thanks to these nic'

After the resignation Of Rev. H. j.,

pastor eleven months. Revs. A. ~
Warner and John Hall of st. Peters
burg preached occasionally during
tn following winter. From the 18th
Of May to the LIST Of September, 1913,
Charles J. Shealy, theological stu
dent from Columbia. s. c., served as
supply. Rev. W. e. Pugh became
pastor on the LIST of October. 1913,
and served until July 1, 1918, four
years and nine months. The pres
emit pastor took charge on the LIST OF
November, 1918.

by Hon. o. NJ. Eaton, mayor OF
Lakeland, and Mrs. M. s. Habenicht

the members freely gave their time
