Big Revival
Will Close
on Sunday
Sunday Meetings VIII Close Stirring
EVangelistic Campaign; Big
Crowds Attending.

The last week of the meeting in
progress at the Methodist church
was launched Sunday morning There
was splendid attendance at the morn
ing service. Sunday evening there
was a record breaking crowd present
to hear DR.. Johnson on The Dead
Niger in the Woodpile." Monday
night there was the largest crowd
present that has yet attended a week
night meeting. At this service the
evangelist preached on "Plowing up
HelPs Halfacre." A number of peo-
pie gathered around the altar at the
close of the service seeking a closer
touch with God and making resolu-
tions to live new lives. Several test
flied that they had been converted.
Tuesday was a heavy day with the
preachers. Service was held at the
high school auditorium at nine-thirty
o'clock for the school children. Then
the day service at the church follow
ed. In the afternoon another service
was held at the school at Charlotte
Harbor for the school children there.
On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day of this week the stores of the
town have closed from ten to eleven
in the morning to give opportunity
for as many as possible to attend the
day services. This courtesy is very
much appreciated by the pastor and
the evangelists.
Thursday at ten in the morning a
union Thanksgiving service will be
held at the church in connection with
the regular revival services.
Next Sunday night will be the last
service of the series of meetings. DR.
Johnson will preach on THE Last
Time-Prepare to Meet Thy God"
II is expected that the largest crowd
that has yet attended these services
will be present to hear this last mes
sage.

If it can be said that there was a
surprise in the election it was fur
nished by the vote for marshal, the
large majority received by Mr.. Lips
comb being greater than even his
most hopeful friends expected. The
contest for this office in part was re-
sponsible for the large vote cast,
friends of both candidates being act
i've in their behalf.
Sometime Tuesday night or We'd
pesday morning, jokesmiths made
three mounds of earth to represent
graves on the vacant lot from which
the Seminole hotel was moved, one
being labeled as the resting place of
Mr.. Caldwell, a second was designat-
ed as the grave of jim Banks, one
of Mr.. Caldwell's friends who was
active in the latter's behalf, and the
third as that of a prominent lady
who took an active interest in the
Gontest for the marshaps office.

Stories are frequently told and be-
lleVed that perishable products have
been dumped to keep up prices.
The U. S. Bureau of Markets has
made many investigations of such
rumors, but the only evidence of
dumping that has been found is
where products have been condemned
by health authorities. In no instance
has there been any dumping" except
under orders from boards of health.

stuff must be bad before any is de-

A Menace to GrOUers
Exists I'm the Fruit Flies of Neighbor-
ing Countries.

The fruit growers of the South At
lantic and Gulf States are exposed to
a serious menace, according to the
! Quarterly Bulletin of the Florida
State Plant Board for October. In
the tropics and sub-tropics various
fruits and vegetables are attacked by
the fruit flies, insects which sting the
fruit and then deposit their eggs In
the punctures. The eggs later hatch
into maggots which develop In the
fruit, rendering 1t unsightly and unit
for use.
There is a great variety Of fruit
flies, many of them resembling each
other in general appearance. Among
the fruit flies may be mentioned the
Mediterranean fruit fly, the West In
dian fruit fly, the Morelos fruit worm
or orange maggot and the guava
fruit fly. All of these and others of
the species threaten Florida's fruit
industry. There are other flies
which attack certain kinds of vege-
tables; for instance, the melon fly
| y,
squash, cantaloupes. etc. So far as
lis known none of the fruit flies pre-
viously mentioned is now in Florida
OF all the members of the fruit fly
family which we have to dread. the
Mediterranean and the West Indian
are perhaps the worst. The Medi-
terranean is to be most feared mas
much as this fly attacks all fruits
and vegetables having seeds. In
places where the Mediterranean fruit
fly has become firmly established it
is difficult for farmers to produce a
sufficient quantity of certain fruits
and vegetables even for home con-
sumption. The United States is
threatened with invasion by this fly
on the Pacific Coast from Hawaii, on
the Atlantic Coast from the Bermu-
das.
Next in Importance to the Mediter-
ranean fruit fly as a potential danger
is the West Indian fruit fly. This
fly is firmly established in Cuba and
other parts of the West Indies. It's
favorite hosts are the guava and
mango although it attacks other
fruits, including citrus. There can
be no doubt that if the West Indian
fruit fly were introduced into Florida
it would readily adapt itself to Flori- !
da conditions and constitute a serious
menace to our citrus crops.
During the past six weeks Assis- |
tant Quarantine Inspectors of the |
State Plant Board, stationed at Key |
West, have intercepted fruit infested |
with the larvae of this fly on eight |
different occasions. This is especial |
ly good work and the Key West IN
spectorS are to be commended upon
the care which they have exercised.
The fruits infested were guavas,
mangoes, and Cuban plums.
The State Plant Board of Florida,
realizing the danger attached to i'm
portations of the above mentioned 4
fruits from the West Indies-this
danger being all the greater by rea-
son of the fact that there is little
or no external evidence to show that
the fruit has become infested with
the larvae-has passed a rule, No.
lie, prohibiting the importation of
guavas, mangoes5 Cuban plums and
Surinam cherries. Hereafter such !
fruits cannot be brought into Florida
from countries where the West In
dian fruit fly is known to be estab-
Iished. n
