TO ORGANIZE ASSOCIATION.
Wauchula Takes Lead in Forming
Associated Trade Board.

At the Wednesday night meeting
of the WauChula Board of Trade il
was decided by that body to make
an effort to form an organization,
similar to the Associated Board of
Trade of the highlands section, which
would include trade boards of all
towns and cities along the A. c. l..
from Lakeland to Fort Myers.
The value of such an organization
has been demonstrated by the accom-
plishments of the association repre-
senting the ridge section from Moore
Haven to Haines City. In this sec
ton, it appears, there is no disCord
no strife, the motto of these towns
being lone for all and all for one"
this spirit of good will and co-opera-
tion being responsible, to a great ex-
tent, for the remarkable growth and
prosperity of the ridge country, ac-
cording to DR.. E. j. Etheredge, who
told of the progress of this section
at recent meeting of the DeSoto
County Press Association and again
at the Wauchula board meeting last
week.

WINTER VEGETABLES.
McQuarrie Recommends Best Cropc
for this Season.

Many homes so lacking for fall and
winter vegetables because the heads
of the homes fail to plant a success
sion and variety of garden seeds. If
the early fail garden paintings have
been in wide rows, it will be q sim
pie matter to make paintings now in
the middles for winter use.
October and November paintings
should be highly frost resistant; such
as, cabbage, lettuce, turnips, mus
tard, kale and onions In order to
maintain warm temperature in the
soil, give it constant STRINGS with
q rake or hoe or even a pillow run
very shallow.
Purple top white globe is probably
the best variety of turnips to plant.
The extra Curled mustard, or what is
known as ostrich plume mustard. is
recommended. OF the many varieties
of cabbage, Charleston Wakefield is
probably most desirable for Florida
Romano lettuce is preferred for all
general purposes. Dwarf curled kale
is recommended for early winter
planting in this part of the country.
Kale makes a very delicious vege-
table, can be used for a great many
purposes, and makes an exSellent
green when boiled with fat meat. 1t
is also good salad plant.

SEED CANE.
Best Method of Banaing Given in
Detail.

Seed cane should be selected and
saved from the best patch on the
farm. It is a common idea that stub
bic cane is better for this purpose
than first-year cane because of the
greater number of joints and eyes
Many experiments have proven that
this is not true. Stubble can has
very little vitality. 1t is dry and
! woody. First-year cane ig juicy and
/ is not seriously woody. Juicy, young
cane as a rule gives a better stand
than stubbles.
The cane should not be dug I'D.
There are two reasons for this: First.
1t entails much extra work. Second
it is not necessary. Properly cut and
banked cane is as good as that dug,
states {. X. McQuarrie, sta.e agent of
Ithe agricultural extension staff
The cane should be cut off near the
ground and piled in layers with the
bottom of each STALK touching the
ground and the tops covering the
cane already piled, much like shingles
on roof. The beds should net be
more than five feet in width and the
cane should not be in too thick lay
erS' because of danger from heating.
Cover the bed about three or four
inches deep with earth from along
side the bed. Leave narrow 1O-in.
strip in the center of the bed uncov-
cred. This strip should be filled in
after few weeks. 1t serves as a
ventilator. However, if there is
danger of frost or Gevere cold the en-
tire bed should be covered Immediate
ly.
The cane should be banked while |
wet. If advantage is taken of rains
it will not be necessary to apply
water to it. Frosts usually follow
rains in winter. If the cane is bank
ed with water on it, it will keep !
much better.

Thermometers Vary.

The readings of old mercury ther-
mometers are often too high, while
spirit thermometers with age are IL
able to give indications lower than the
actual temperatures. Shrinkage Of
the bulb, forcing the mercury up the
tube, has been suggested as the cause
Of the high readings. For the op-
posite effect, several theories have
been offered-such as taking up some
Of the spirit in an invisible film wet
ting the bore of the tube, or chemical
combination Of the spirit with the
glass or evaporation through invisible
cracks-but 1t is now believed that an
explanation simpler than the early
ones is available. Mercury thermom-
eters sealed of when almost filled.
contain practically no air, the tubes
thus being given the reduced internal
pressure favoring shrinkage. But
spirit thermometers are sealed with
the bulbs in freezing mixture, so
that they may contain as much air
as possible, and such bulbs are con-
stantly subjected to an internal pres
sure greater than outside. This gives
the tendency to expand, allowing the
spirit to fall too low In the tube.

During the war. Austria. fearing
and hating the Italians of Istfia, placed
every town under drastic military con-
troll.
It was !. the chief task Of Colonel
vogelhueber. commander of Buje, to
make the Italians feel his presence.
They had felt it one day. Incensed by
his latest decrees. they had come In
crowds below his windows. discussing,
gesticulating. angrilys demanding an
audience, until his troops had rammed
them in the stomach with the butts
Of rifles and driven them ofr-off to
their homes where they would find that
during their absence a few more OBJ
jects had mysteriously disappeared,
woolen clothing, perhaps, or some
pieces Of furniture or cherished pic
ture. Not stolen, Of course, but "requi-
sitioned." 1t was neat.
He had had a good day, but he
would have a better evening. They
had wanted an audience. Very well.
That evening he would grant an audi
ence to their leading citizens. More
than that-he wdulda dine them l.
The leading sEft3zens of Bu5e win
not soon forget thAf dinner The meal
itself was excellent fniteiy better
than any that they had had for months.
It consisted Of meats ..reqnisitioned''
from their own herds and fiocks, grains
from their own fields, wine from their
own cellars. The host, Colonel vogel-'
hueber, sat at the head Of the table,
all smiles and benignity. He was
solicitous that every one should have
plenty. When the repast was finished,
he rose.
He called the attention Of the Ital-
ians of Buje to the fact that he had
sent very few Of them to Austrian In
ternment camps He emphasized his
tolerance and liberality In this matter.
His action, however, had been guided
by definite purpose. 1t might please
them to be informed as to the purpose
which he had had in mind.
II do not care to intern you," he
said. in smiling climax, because I
prefer to execute youi
1.-THE troops Of Italy are at present
making some advance. wish simply
to announce to you now that before
they ever reach Buje shall have the
pleasure of seeing every man Of you
shot. Good night. gentlemen. The
pleasure has been mine."
Then, showing the yellow streak al
ways present in such natures. he
hastily summoned his soldiers, and
every guest was escorted to the street
at the point Of a bayonet.
A gay, dashing wag was voglehu-
ber. Dashing he was certainly, a few.
weeks later, when the italian Ber-
sagliere swept into Buje SO suddenly
that he did not have time to make good
his promise. but found 1t prudent to
run to save his own skin, even leaving
a precious carload of stolen treas
ures behind him.-Willard Price, in
