The old scrub cattle are soon to be
a thing of memory only, for high
grade bulls are being Introduced and
blooded stock is to be the thing of
the future. Dairymen are coming In,
too, and nothing but the finest OF
mich cows are being brought in for
the purpose.
In trucking lines there should be
much that appeals to those VINO are
inclined to the growing OF the lowly
vegetable. Winter crops are a very
apparent success in the Lakeland dis
trict, and there are very large acre
ages being devoted to their raising.
There is one very large place on what
can best be described as medium high
hammock and best quality pine land.
These are irrigated gardens exclu-
sively and such vegetables as lettuce
and cabbage are easily gotten to the
winter market by the trainload from
this one place. This gardener is a
believer in diversified farming and a
system is practiced for every acre.
There are principal crops" how
ever and these are generally lettuce,
cabbage. English peas, beans, egg
plant, potatoes, both varieties, and
peppers. These lands, however, work
twelve months In the year, and are
/ put to humus restoring crops when
the principal crops are off.
There are many details about grow
ing and stock raising that / cannot

information I advise that you write

GET READY
FOR FLU
Keep Your Liver Active, Your
System Purified and Free From
Colds by Taking Calotabs,
the Nausealess Calomel
Tablets, that are De-
ightful, Safe and
Sure.

Physicians and Druggists are advis-
ing their friends to keep their systems
purified and their organs in perfec;
working order as a protection against
the return Of influenza. They know
that clogged up System and lazy
liver favor colds, influenza and serious
complications.
To cut, short a cold overnight and to
prevent serious complications take one
Calotab at bedtime with a swallow OF
water-that's all. No salts, no nausea,
no gripping, no sickening after effects.
Next morning your cold has vanished,
your liver is active, your system is puri-
fed and refreshed and you are feeling
fine with hearty appetite for break
fast. Eat what you please--no danger:
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-fve cents.
Every druggist is authorized to refund
your money If you are not perfectly
delighted with Calotabs.-(Adv.)
