A Florida Need.

House hunting has long been a
necessary, but rather undesirable,
pastime for all new corners to Plant
City. Some of them succeed in find
ing a place to live, while others have
to go to another town. This can be
stopped, but it will take the combined
efforts of all good citizens TO do it.
There is almost an unlimited de-
mand for neat. moderately priced
houses in Plant City, as well as every
where else. In the past few months
several families have been requested
to move cut of the houses they had
rented on account of the houses being
sold. In many cases the parties buy
ing bought on account of not being
able to find house to rent. 1t has al
most reached the point where it is alb
solutely necessary for a family to
leave town every time a new one
moves here. II family is not able to

Planting BIueberries.

County Agent Mathison is very en-
thusiastic over the matter of getting
a large acreage of blueberries set out
in this section and already has some
thing like fifty acres pledged to be
planted this fall, with a possibility of
a hundred acre farm in addition to
this.
1t is interesting to note that so far
as the records of the agricultural de-
partment at Washington go, there are
only two localities in the United
States where these berries are grown
as market crop. One of these is the
Sapp place at Crestview in which there
are six acres and one grower in New
Jersey. All the berries of this kind,
and there are thousands of bushels
marketed every year, being those
picked from the bushes growing wild.
The market price this year has
ranged around 35 cents per quart,
rather an unusual price perhaps. but
it indicates that there is a market at
a profitable price.
The burberry grows wild here, and
the experience of Mr.. Sapp for the
past twelve years shows that the bush

bush responds most handsomely to

Diamond Rush Like
Scenes in California
and Alaska Diggings

London, April 22.-Two men were
killed and scores were injured in the
diamond rush which occurred in the
Taunga district in South Africa, ac-
ccrding to reports received from Jo-
hannesbur-.
The rush. the greatest in the his
tory of the diamond industry, was &C
companied by scenes of extraordinary
activity. The widest excitement pre-
vailed among the prospective diggers,
among whom were included men rep
~esentative of practically every bust
ness and profession in the union
Many of these men formed them
selves into holiday syndicates" and
the demand for professional runners
was great.
Hundreds OF police were imported
to the Tlaping district by the authori-
ties in order to cope with the I'M
rrecedented rush, and considering the
magnitude OF the undertaking COM
paratively little trouble was expert
enced.
AS the pegging ground was some
distance frem she starting point the
crowd lined up and awaited the sig
nal % go. At the crack of the pistol
the race started and the large area
vas demarcated by the diggers in al
most record time. Experts say the
new field will be the most productive
in the world. Judging from results
already obtained.

transported by the owner IN his auto
mobile. In the district court in which
the case was first brought it was held
that this was not a violation of the
law, and the accused was discharged.
We think the question should
have been answered the other way"
said Justice Van Devanter. The evil
against which the statute was direct
ed was the Introduction OF intoxicat-
ing liquor into a prohibition state
from another state for purposes other
than those specifically excepted a
matter which congress could and the
states could not control. The statute
makes no distinction between differ
ent modes of transportation. and We
think it was intended to include them
all, that being the natural import OF
its words.
Had congress intended to contine
1t to transportation by railroad and
other common carriers. it we'll may
be assumed that other words appro-
pirate to the expression of intention
would have been used. and II aiso

liquor, even for his own private use,

clared in a decision handed down by
Justice Van Devanter, delivering the
opinion OF the court.

3, 1917, known as the Reed amend
ment, which declares that whoever
shall cause intoxicating liqours to be
transported, except for scientific. sac
ramental, medicinal and mechanical
purposes. into any state the laws of
which prohibit the manufacture or
sale therein of intoxicating liquors
for beverage purposes, shall be pun
ished."
