PEOPLE INTERESTED
IN FLORIDA LIVE STOCK
AND FARM LANDS

Gainesville, April 14.-More people

for engaging in farming, live stock
production and kindred pursuits In
Florida than In any other state in the
union is the information brought to
Gainesville this week by j. l.. Ed

comes here for conference with
President A. Murphree Of the Univer-

statement to them.
The government has been placing
some small advertisements In a num-
ber of the leading publications OF the
country. offering information to home
seekers bureau. The prospective
home seeker is required to specify
the state in which he or she is partic-
ularly interested in getting informa
tion upon, and in this way the popu
Ilarity of Florida is proved by the larg
est number of inquiries being made
about this state.

not good guessers, he told them tina

BEACH ROAD IS SHUT OFF
WITH A BOARD FENCE

ST. Petersburg, April 13.--Automo-
bilists attempting to 90 to Pass-a-
Grille by way of the McAdoo bridge
were treated to rather disappoint-
ing surprise yesterday, w. d. McAdoo,
owner of st. Petersburg Beach and
builder Of the bridge, had board
fence built across his property below
the casino so it was impossible for
the cars to get on the gulf beach for
the delightful ride down the beach.
One automobilist, who made the
trip yesterday, was rather indignant.
He said: 81 crossed the bridge and
paid the 5O-cent toll intending to go
down the island to Pass-a-Grile as l
have done frequently lately. When
reached the McAdoo pavilion found
board fence built across the none
too good sand road to the beach. This
was connected up with the boardwalk
so that It was impossible to get on
the beach. I was told that there was
absolutely no way to get on the
beach. There were about Is other
cars waiting there in hopes Of being
able to get on down the island.
II returned to the point on the Nc
Adoo road where the brick is intend
ed to start down the island, according
to my information. A temporary
straw road has been built along this
route by Mayor Duffy, of Pass-a-G Grille
and many cars use 1t when the tide
is too high. found that big hole
had been dug in the middle Of this
road and several palmetto logs were
lying around so that 1t was almost I'm
possible for car to get by"

inquiriers expect to bring some OF
their Hive stock to their new homes,
and upon finding out that they cannot
safely do so, turn their attention to
tick free areas In other parts Of the
country.
This fact has been stated on a mum.
ber of occasions by officials of the ag-
ricultural extension service, who re-
ceive many inquiries direct. In fol.
lowing up those inquiries, they have
learned that very small percentage
of prospective homeseekers make In
vestments in farms after learning
that they will have to leave their good
cattle at home II they locate in tick
infested territory.
Florida Is in the unfavorable posi-
ton of not being able to take advan
tage to the fullest extent Of this grea
opportunity for getting a large mum
ber of progressive farmers help de
velop the live stock and agriculture
resources of the state.
A number of counties which hav
devoted for compulsory dipping o
cattle are being held back in tn
work on account of slowness in at
joining counties, Hilssborough bein
in that position this year.
The early enactment of the stat
wide tick eradication law as embo'
led in House bill number three an
four will be one Of the best adverti
ing feature the legislature can ado
this year, and will speedily place Il
state in position to get full efficienC
