presumably there is mail from the States
as there nearly always is when the boat
is detained.
The price Of butter at the dairy is now
81 10 as win he noted in advertisement

cali that we cited Nordlyset as reporting
large sales of genuine Danish butter in
the States just recently at 64-65 cents a
pound. Milk is nov Il cents a quart.

SWAMP LAND Is
BEING DRAINED
Seventy Thousand Acres Near Bald
win to Be Completely Drained
This Year.

Baldwin, Fla, July 24.-One OF the
largest drainage projects ever under
taken in this country 10000 acres,
is Transforming this part of the Ever
glades from jungle of swamp land
into some of the best farming lapd
in the United States. Where three
years ago nothing but swamp grass
grew, today there are flourishing
farms of sugar cane, potatoes. cab
bages, and great ranges of cattle.
Three years ago half of this land
was covered with water and most or
it ifnpenetrable. During the early
days of construction the men were
forced to use every precaution in their
work, owing to the wild animals and
poisonous snakes of the swamps.
Thousands and thousands of acres OF
land were under water, green and yell
low Shiny water covered many acres,
and other sections of the swamp were
filled with trees, their roots strik-
| ing many feet below the surface.
The reclamation of this land has
| created a healthful section where ag-
| riculture is the principal enterprise
Work on the present plans is expected
to be completed within the next six
months.

TAMPA FIGHTS
DISCRIMINATION
Businessmen Carry Different Kate on
phosphate Rock to Washington.

Tarna Fla. July 24.-Tampa BUS
inessmen will carry their fignt asaiiiS.
the $500 differential rate IN phos-
nhate shipments to Washington, Ior
adiustment. c.. S. Hoskins. traIIlc
manager of the board of trade showed
AT uublic meeting here, by discus
sion Of the port facilities, that the
extra steaming distance to tampa
claimed by the Atlantic port interests
as an excuse for the differential, is
more than made up for by the better
facilities in the port of Tampa, Wniie
there are other advantages tnat
should entirely do away with the
idea of differentials. If a just dif1er-
entail was made, Hoskins felt thai
this port would have nothing TO rear.
Mr.. Hoskins has gone very deeply
into the matter from rate max
ing standpoint and his conclusion was
that the rate is a. rank Dissemination
and that the situation is serious IN
the extreme. Tampa is not opposed
to differentials if founded on right
but Tampa business men declare that
this1one is not fair to this port, but
is most discriminatory.
The differential is not founded on
the cosxs of transportation. 1t, has
been pointed out that while there is
some greater steaming distance &c
Tampa from some of the English
ports, the port dispatch here is much
greater and the opportunities to com
plete cargo are so good that vessels
actually make better time here, than
at Jacksonville.
Mr.. Hoskins declares that the mat
ter is really reduced itself to compe-
tition between hard rock at Jackson
Vile and Fernandina and pebble rocl
at Tampa.
The hard rock is farther from tide
water at those ports than pebble rocl
is at Tampa, it is much harder t
handle and cannot be loaded as fast
and there is natural cost of han
ding at those ports that is fully twice
as great as the handling pebble rocl
at Tampa and Port. Tampa. It il
probably due to an effort to make III
| this difference that the south Allan
| tic ports got the shipping board t
make the differential rate.
No such differentiaI was made il
/ pre- war times when the business wa
handled privately. why should it b
made by publicly owned boats now.
asked Mr.. Hoskins, pointing out tina
! the ships owned by the government
through the shipping board, and tina
i the foreign boats which still carr
/ the greater part of the cargo hav
| made no such differential, and thei
action cannot be controlled.
Mr.. Hoskins PORTED out that tn
cost of handling is about IS cents
ton, while it runs to $3.50 at Atlanti
ports. Ostensibly the differential
to equalize this difference to the car
rier. The logical conclusion of sue
a paternalistic theory is that tn
price should be equalized to the cor
sumner, which Mr.. Hoskins believes
be an absurdity.

TO COMBAT FALSE
PLAGUE STORIES
United Commercial Travellers VIII
Present True Statement.

Because some commercial travel
lers from competing jobbing points
have spread false reports about the
plague situation in Pensacola, the
local U: c. T. ounctl last night
adopted a resolution requiring all
members, of the local to have true
statements of the situation here TO
submit to the people with whom they
come in contact. Z Copies of the state
ments will be handed to all U. z. L.
chapters in the Georgia Florida and
Alabama jurisdiction.
Some of the reports being circu :
lated are hysterical and alarming and
utterly false. In almost every case
investigation has shown that they
have been spread by persons desir-
ing to hurt Pensacola business.
The matter of the, statements will
be handled by the grievance commit
tee of which Max Heinberg is chair
man.
