ITEMS OF INTEREST TO THE FARMER
- and STOCK GROWER -


The outlook for a winter cabbage
crop in Florida is not bright. Reports
are that a very large crop is being
grown in the northern states to be
kept in storage until spring, and this
will mean cheap prices. Already, Iowa
cabbage are selling for s25 a ton in
st. Louis and New York flat cabbage
are bringing the farmers only $3.50
per ton in bulk. Probably the best
thing for our growers to do, is to re-
duce their acreage considerably and
make special effort to produce a
crop of extra quality and yield on the
land they do plant
With no immediate help in sight
for the peanut growers 1T looks as
ii the best thing for most of our farm
ers to do in the way of cash crops for
another year is to hold on to hog rails
ing and increase their poultry produc-
tion. Hogs will always bring cash,
whether at profit or not, while corn,
peanuts and some other things are
some times slow sale at any price
And as for poultry, there is a cash
market every day in the year right
here in Florida for all that can be
grown in Marion county. The thing
necessary to reach it is the proper
marketing machinery. This can easily
be provided by the farmers themselves
and soon will be by the Farmers
Union. If homegrown feeds are large
ly used in raising poultry and eggs
and these products marketed cooper
atively in way to make Marion coun-
ty noted as poultry section, there is
no reason why our farmers could not
become prosperous on this type of live
stock farming alone. No hope of profit.
tho, is held out to any one who intends
to buy all the feed that the poultry
must have.

Silver Production
Dawson News

The fact Yukon has a large silver in the mining world If Yukon makes good on her silver, she will draw capital for many other mineral prop critics awaiting the magic touch
 Hundreds of Klondikers have shown their faith iii taking the initial step and investing several hun dreds of dollars each. Some few others have put in thousands The money in must be backed by more or that which already in the hazard will be lest
 Nothing promising has been discovered in Yu- kon Territory since the great Klondike placer strike the silver field at Mayo. Pessmists always arise to say there will be nothing worth while from the prospects Ten years ago pessimists were giving Cobalt miners only three years live, where the mines of that region today shippers, and many mines have been opened since the knocker first got busy there with his hammer. Co., bait today is producing nearly two tons of silver day and the dividends of the camp last year totaled $4,232,000, making grand total of dividends of that camp since it's ditcovery of $S0,7S0,000. The II 100000 valued at $12,300, 900. The if gures should prove q stimulus to Mayo silver hold ers especially in face of the fact the price of the white metal holds up we'll above the $1.30 mark.
 Few mineral belts have shown a general distribution of the white metal in the beginning than the Mayo region. Yukon well afford to back her white hope, and bring all influence bear to secure all scientific, government financial and other aid in hastenng it's development.

Yukon's Bright Outlook
Dawson News

The waters of the mighty Yukon will break their mighty shackles within few days The Klondike camp and other parts of the Territory just now ex perience the quiet period, is customary each spring. especially are scattering in every direction the hills and creeks and other outlying camps But the fact remains that more activity for dredging new creeks is under way in this camp spring for years while the Silver proper ties Mayo attracting more attention than any other precious mineral discovered in the Yukon. In all likelihood there will be rush into Dawson and the Yukon from the moment navga- opens this It is likely not to be of the feverish character the stampedes of early days, and possible investors.
 Material which has been idle in Dawson for some time and all apparatus fit for mining will take on new values and be in sudden demand if the Mayo properties turn out all that many flattering prospects indicate and if things once start on those old lines Yukon will be like beehive. The dredging properties the Canadian Kondike, the North West and other companies assure at least twenty years of activity in those lines right in the back yard of Dawson, and scores of millions of dol lars will of that ground. The first dis tribution of the returns go to Dawson will get the benefit and she likewise will share any benefits of the mineral deposits of the Mayo area. No other field that be pointed out today holds such a glowing possibility Mayo. The Yukon has every to be optimistic, and to buck up and keep things going.

THE ENDING OF CARRANZA

The assassination of President Carranza adds an- other black chapter to the story of Mexico From the news dispatches it would that his ending the result of treachery that is comparable with the assassination of President Madeira and Vice President SaureZ There is nothing creditable in the incident to any connected with it. and the perpetruors of the crime should be punished.
 While there very little to commend in the adrnn IS stration of President Carranza, he did not deserve the fate which befell him While he a bitter enemy of the United States, provincial and adept in the curious and inscrutibe ways that Mexican, he will down in history the leader of those Mexicans who would accept the reign of Huerta, based as it upon assassination and disregard of the Constitution. Almost immediately upon the assumption of power by Huerta Carranza then Governor of the State of Coahuila, declared that the Constitution had been aside and that the people were not bound to recognize the rule of the usurper He issued proclamation in which he announced that the State of Coahuila would not have any intercourse with the fraudulent govern ment He put himself at the head of the troops of his State, and announced that he would resist any attempt of Huerta to extend authority huia. It was not until the popularity of the stand which Carranza had taken became general that he determined to drive Huerta from power. and then he declared that it his purpose to make himself President, but to give the people oppor- tunity to hold Constitutional election
 It is not necessary to speculate upon just when Carranza developed the ambition to be the whole thing in Mexico It is charged and denied that he had that in his mind early in the course of events which followed his declaration against Huerta Be that it may it inevitable that he should be- President. He the leader of a popular revo- lution. He good lawyer, had been a success full Governor, and he his war, started in behalf of the Constitution, and ending in the expulsion of the usurpers. While he might not have succeeded if it had not been for the loyal and efficient support of Obregon, who had proved his ability as soldier Madeira and added his aurels in the Consti- tutonasts revolution, and the aid of Villa, ban the real leader of the rebellion He had declared purpose, fixed it upon sound legal basis and he had held leadership through the con- fidence of those associated with him. It was the most natural thing in the world that he should

receive practically unanimous vote for the Pres idency
 Three things counted for the undoing of Carran- ga His executive talents did not measure up to the gigantic job which he acquired. He could not restrain his hatred the United States and every thing American get it out of his head that this country did intend to gobbe Mexico at the first opportunity. He grew to like power used it tyrani- cally and 10th surrender it
 In spite of all his devious and peculiar dealings and failures however. if Carranza had called an election, permitted the people to elect Oregon Pres ident they desired do, and retired to his home and bcame a simple citizen of the Republic, he would have been enthroned in the hearts of his country men a great patriot and great statesman His ambitions, jealousies and love of power would not permit that and he was driven from a practical dictatorship va movement which resembled in most particulars that he had headed against Huerta He held the headship of government and gave evidence that intended to continue to hold tc it in defiance the Constitution until, like Huerta he became usurper.
