FANCY PRICES FOR COWS
Florida Needs More and Better.
Dairy Cattle

Rapid strides have been made
in the improvement of Florida
| livestock during the past few
years. The prospects are good for
still greater advancement in the
next few years.
Within the past two or three
weeks atleast two records have
been broken, as follows: fifty head
of Hereford cattle sold at auction
in Nebraska by Monsel Bros. for
$l92,250 or an average of $3,845
per head. In this sale one of the
bulls sold for $21, 1000, another for
$11, 500. The top price for the
cows was $1,000.
When will Florida farmers be
producing cattle of this class?
Prof. John M. Scott of the Expert
ment Station answers this ques-
tion by saying that not until our
cattle are tick free and our farm
ers learn to supply our cattle with
more and better feed. Plenty of
good feed goes long way toward
making good cattle.
Another record that is worthy
of mention is that of Holstein-
Friesian cow in California, own
ed by the A. w. Morris Corpora
tion. This cow in one year pro-
duced 33,424.8 pounds of milk or
over 16 IL tons Of milk, and 1868
pounds butter fat. She averaged
AZ quarts of milk per day for the
entire year. just stop and esti-
mate the value of this amount of
milk if sold at fifteen cents per
quart. SylFM
Prof. Scott says dairying will
be profitable industry in Flori-
da when we have good producing
cows, but when the average dairy
cow produces only 165 gallons
in year, dairying will not be
profitable. Florida needs more
dairy cows that will produce from
600 to 800 gallons yer year. When
we get more cows of this capacity
there will be fewer tin can dairies
in Florida, and the coming gener-
alton of boys and girls will be bet
ter fed and will develop into
stronger men and women.

Ponder This Seriously

Suppose this suffrage measure
before congress becomes law
Suppose the Republicans win in
the next election, as they have a
fair chance to do. Suppose they
use the law, as they can, to pass
another law that every man and
woman in the United States shall
have right to vote for presiden-
tial electors, senators and repre-
sentatives without paying poll
tax or any other of the qualifica-
tions Southern States now exact,
and send deputy marshals to ev-
cry polling place to enforce the
law. Of course, the northern suff-
ragets, who make up about nine
tenths of that party, think this
would be all right, but isn't it
strange that any Southern woman
can support a cause tending to
such result ?-Ocala Star.
The Punta Gorda herald., 1919-02-06
The Home Newspaper

The State Marketing Bureau
says: "There is hardly any way
in which a person can do so much
for his own locality, with so little
cost and at the same time with
so much benefit to himself and
family, as by giving a hearty sup
port to his local paper. A news
paper with evidence of substan-
tial support in its pages speaks
volumes for a town. The fact
that every trade seeker has an ad-
vertisement in it's columns proves
that the people are up with the
times and favorably impresses the
stranger into whose hands it
chances to fall. The paper well
filled with hom advertisements
and local news is a mirror in
which is reflected the activities of
a live community"

SPRAY FOR CITRUS scAB
See That This Work is Done Be-
fore New Growth Starts

Scab is one of the most serious
citrus pests, and its control de-
pends on timely spraying. New
growth is very easily infected and
it is often attacked before the
buds are fully open. According
to HI, Z. Stevens, Plant Patholo-
gist at the Experiment Station, in
fections are especially liable at
this time because the young shoots
are tender and less able to resist.
If the tree is rid of scab the new
growth will put out free from
contamination.
A clean up spray in groves
where scab is troublesome would
be advisable before new growth
puts out. For this purpose Bor-
deaux mixture, $3.50, or the am
moniacal solution of copper car
Donate should be used. The fol-
iage and old infections should be
covered with the spray to kill any
spores present, or any that may
appear later. If the old fruit is
still on the trees at this time, the
ammoniacal solution of copper
carbonate should be used, to pre-
vent discoloring Of the fruits.
otherwise, the Bordeaux mixture
is preferable. After the new
growth puts out a second spray
ing with lime sulphur may be ad-
visable after the fruit has set. Pre-
cautions should be taken against
any scale insects that may appear
from the use of these fungicides.

Editor Lees Good Advice

Several Of our exchanges are
worrying over the proposition as
to what should be done with the
hundreds of requests for free
space being sent out by the gov
ernment and its many bureaus.
Dead easy, gentlemen; do as we
do. Ii there is any news in it
use it. If not, fire it into the
waste basket. There is no valid
reason why the newspapers should
give the government thousands of
dollars worth of space while ev-
cry one else is paid. If the gov
ernment and fool congressman
cannot treat the papers right, let
them depend on sign boards and
posters for their publicity Win
