being shipped two hundred cars per day of vegetables and not cars enough to take care of all can be secured. There has been shipped over ten mil l lion boxes of oranges and grapefruit this season, and thousands more to go soon as cars can be had. Was up through Haines City, Lakeland and Winter Haven last week and there are 1 thousands of boxes not yet picked. do not know of any farms in New England that will sell from 1000 to s2 ,000 per acre. There are many of them in Florida. l do not know of any land in Eastern Connecticut that will sell for $1,O00 to $3,000 per foot there are such here A lot was sold on Franklin street last week for S2,- 900 per foot; another that was offered for $500 ten years ago has refused an offer of $60,000 Saw a house and lot that suited me fine, which IS close by my place, but the price did not, 1t was $50 per foot. Have been offered more than double for my place.
 When it comes to cattle, l do not know of any herds of registered stock in Connecticut containing from 60 to 100 heads of cattle; they have them here When you talk about poultry, l visited one ranch with over 13,OO0 some chicken farm). Saw the finest exhibits of poultry at the annual fairs. Speaking of fairs, Florida took second prize on coin. They also had the fin- est exhibits of vegetables and fruit have ever seen in the United States, and have been in them all.
 Regarding Tampa, it is sound, sol i'd city. The Port of Tampa stands seventh in the United States. Port receipts prove it. Postoffice receipts in 1919 were $475, ,225.70. The banks are all solid institutions. One bank in 1915 had s1,100,000 deposits and on December 31st, 1919, they had ST. 500, ,000. Our hardware stores, of which there is quite number, carry over three-fourths of million dollars in stock. One paint and oil house built last year storehouse 90x200 feet for their surplus stock. The re- tail and department stores compare favorably with Providence and Wor- cester. The schools are as fine as any in the north, with all the modern methods, including fine trade school.
 There have been over $2,000,000 building permits issued this year (for Tampa alone). Other places are building as fast, and it is as near the Garden of Eden as I ever expect to get. Now, no one can see Florida by. railroad trains. The only way to see and learn Florida is by auto. I have been up and down both East and West coasts by boat and rail and have crossed from coast to coast eight times

FLORIDA THRIFTY
 AND PRODUCTIVE
w s. Johnson Takes Issue With Statements of Doctor
 Spalding
Putnam Man Finds Opportunity and
 Business Progress
Tampa, Fla, May 19, 1920.

Tampa, Fla, May l9, 1920. To the Editor of The Putnam Patriot I was amused at the description of Dr. Spalding's views of Florida in the Observer of April 21st. Lack of Thrift in the South" I am sure if the good doctor should see Florida he would change his mind; first he states there is some stunted pine in few sections. when there are millions of acres of hard pine from 80 to l0o rect tall and will cut from 60 to 80 feet m length and from Is to 20 inches square. Florida is producing more hard pine timber than dozen other states combined.
 Second, "Great effort to make a meager living" Will say l personally know many men who came to Florida practically poor and are now worth their millions, and many others who can count their thousands. .
 Third, Grasses" It might be in- teresting to know one who has 7,0o0 acres of hay They do not raise clov- CT. heards grass or our northern red top. Many have from one to four thousand acres.
 Fourth, about pigs. Well, Florida took first prize at the International Swine show against all corners. l don't know of any hogs up north that will sell at s5,o00 to s10,000 per head. MT. Goodbar paid s10,5o0 for one hog. Come into Florida and attend the agricultural fairs and you will be surprised to see what the farmers are doing.
 Fifth. About tourists spending their winters in Jacksonville. True, many do, but where one stops in Jack sonville, thousands come further south. Jacksonville is a live hustling city. but it is only the gateway to Florida.
 Sixth. About small clearings with a few orange trees and vegetables. Come down where you can see thou sands of acres in celery, cabbage, to- matoes, and in fact all kinds of vege- tables. One man last year made a clear profit of one-half million dollars on his tomatoes alone. There is now

Cannot Praise this
 Remedy too Highly
THE WAY ONE LADY FEELS AFTER SUPPLYING TWO YEARS

Judging from her letter, the mis- cry and wretchedness endured by Mrs. Charlie Taylor, R. F. D. No. l, Box IA, Dillon, 5. C., must have been terrible. No one, after read ing her letter, can continue to doubt the great healing power of PE-RU-NA for troubles due to catarrh or catarrhal conditions in any part of the body. Her letter is an inspiration to every sick and suffering man or woman anywhere. Here it is: "l suffered two years with catarrh of the head. stomach and bowels. Tried two of the best doctors, who gave me upf I then took PE-RU-NA and can truthfully say I am well. When l began to use PE-RU-NA, weighed one hundred pounds. My weight now is one hundred and fifty. l cannot praise PE-RU-NA too highly, for it was Godsend to me. I got relief from the first half bottle and twelve bottles cured me advise all sufferers to take PE-RU-NA."
 As an emergency remedy in the home, there is nothing quite the equal of this reliable, time-tried medicine, PE-RU-NA. Thousands place their sole dependence on if for coughs, colds, stomach and bowel trouble, constipation, rheu- matisrn, pains in the back, side and loins and to prevent the grip and Spanish Flu. To keep the blood pure and maintain bodily strength and robustness, take PE-RU-NA.
 You can buy PE-RU-NA any where in either tablet or liqui form.

TEACHERS SIGN CONTRACTS
State to Be Short 1000 Instructor
 Coming Year

It was given out by member oi the town school committee that all but one teacher in the Putnam schools has returned signed contract for another year. This is gratifying to the board in the face of the predicted shortage of teachers in the state.
 That the state legislature will be asked at its next session to appropri- ate between $2,000, 900 and $3,0OO for state aid for schools in Connecti- cut was revealed in an address by Superintendent of Schools Stanley H. Holmes of New Britain, speaking to the Chamber of Commerce.
 Superintendent Holmes said that there would be a shortage of 1000 teachers in the state next fall with only 4ee new teachers to fill their places.

have already formulated a program for
the c., I. & W., looking toward better
conditions, and l have no doubt others
have done the same.
ut is fact that under the conditions
which have prevailed for the last two
years there was letup in efficiency
manifest in many directions Many en-
ployes were inclined to take their jobs
less seriously than they had done be-
fore, and as things stood under gov
eminent control we were unable to hold
them to the strict observance Of rules
and conduct that we shall require after
March 1.
'In the matter of pay 1t is well known
that many very material advances were
made under government control. In
creases of more than 200 per cent were
put into force in some instances. And
while we are not permitted to reclassify
salary schedules until Sept. 1, 1920, yet
it is possible for us to cut down ex-
penditures by dispensing with such en-
ployes as are not absolutely essential.
Our road will pursue a retrenchment pol
icy along those lines and / do not doubt
that other systems will do likewise. This
will be among the subjects discussed ut

PARIS, Feb. 25.-Former Premier
Joseph Caillaux, on trial charged
with having reasonable dealings with
the enemy during the war, denied today
that he had plotted a premature and dis
honorable peace with the italian pacifsts
during a visit to Italy.
The accused statesman was questioned
at length by Leon Bourgeois, president of
the high court of justice, regarding his
Italian sojourn These interrogations
brought out important admissions from
NJ Caillaux regarding his ''pacifist policy
which brought him into disrepute in the
closing days of the war
SOUGHT ONLY
HONORABLE PEACE.
= NJ Caillaux readily admitted he had
conversations with members of the paci-
fist element in italian government circles,
but insisted these conversations had FOR
their object, mot peace at any price, but
an honorable peace"
'EWere you not aware that such dec
laratiOns. in view of the perilous situa-
alton in the Italian armies. were likely
to be disastrous to the entente" asked
President Bourgeois.
'I desired to sound the Italians on
their disposition towards peace NJ
CaiIlaux explained. knowing the peril
ous situation I desired to end the useless
bloodshed."
A number Of documents secured by the
French government from the vault of q
Florence bank are to be introduced in
the trial by the prosecution.
WIFE SHOWS
GREAT INTEREST.
Nine Caillaux was a particularly in
terested observer of the proceedings. as
she is accused of acting as intermediary
between her husband and the Italian
pacifists. She leaned forward and lis
tened attentively while her husband was
being questioned about the contents Of
the safe deposit box at Florence which
had been rented in her name. The de
PENDANT explained this by saying the re
ceptacle was only for his wife's use and
was not to be used for propaganda docu-

purely matter of speculation now and
one for future decision.
There will probably be no immediate
change in passenger rates." he added
"As matter of fact, the roads always
lost In the carrying of passengers when
the rate was 2 cents a mile and they have
consistently lost also under the 3-cent
rate. However, there is little likelihood
of any increase in that, for the present
at least. And in freight rates even, a pos
sible rs per cent increase would not be-
gin to meet the immense increase in our
