What can't Florida be if she will?
Already she is the winter resort of
the country, and she has the most in
ducements of any section in the Unit
ed States to make the summer resort
as well, to become a year round play
ground.
AS work group she offers unpar-
alelled opportunities. New industries
are springing up everywhere. Sugar
mills seem destined to be part OF
our future inducement equipment.
Palatka, Miami and a part of DeSoto
county are in the race for the first
establishment, and the fact that the
demand for sugar is so great is sui
ficient reason for thinking the project
will be pushed to successful dem
onstration of F1orida's capacity in that
direction.
New cattle, better cattle and more
cattle are going to be raised here.
The state has the facilities for rails
ing them. People who know have
said so and have proven their state
ments by demonstrations and com
parsons.
A number of statistics, mindful of
the increased cost of canned milks
are pressing the reasons why Florida
should become big dairy state and
showing the possibilities for her in
becoming one.
Florida has the area She has th~
climate. She has the soil. Her
coasts offer big fish, oyster and sponge
industries. Her harbors are capable
of becoming famous in trade.
Her tobacco industry is large and
growing. Her phosphate production
surpasses that of any part of the Unit
ed States, and has been floating more
on the world commerce than all of
the other phosphate producing states
together. Her turpentine production
ranks first in the Union. Her citrus
fruits are envied the country over,
and from late reports, Florida Valen-
cias are bringing better prices than
the California product. Agricultural
possibilities are almost unlimited, as
any scientific agriculturist will de-
clare, for those things over which man
has not control are already his in

LODGE AS A HARMoNlzER

With Henry Cabot Lodge added to
the Northern publicists urging the
people of the South to vote the Repub
ican ticket, We can hardly imagine
such a thing as failure for the move
ment.
The Senator says Inat national
unity is vital to the United States,
excepting treaties of peace, of course
We are confronted by the gravest
problems, which must be met without
sectional leanings or prejudices,
always barring such trifles as the
League of Nations. National harmony
has become, as result of the Euro
pean war, more vivid than ever be.
fore and is to be cultivated by all
parties" with a stiff reservation
against the Democratic President of
the United States.
Were it not for an episode of thirty
years ago we could see the author of
these noble sentiments acclaimed from
the Potomic to the Gulf as deliverer,
the solid South shattered by the dyna.
mic force of kind words and the Dem.
Ccratic Party reduced to a minority
so weak that in most places the
HameS of its candidates would have
to be written on the ticket. l. was
in 1890 that Mr.. Lodge, then a Repre-
sentative in Congress, undertook to
deal with the South in another way.
His idea of national unity at that
time was expressed in a Force Bill,
by the terms of which elections at
the South would have been more or
less under control of the United
States ARMY. acting in the spirit of
national unity so vital to Republican
Party interests as then Interpreted.
The Lodge bill got through the
House in fine shape, but in the Senate
year later it encountered a deadly
filibuster and died. If this tragedy
fills anybody with sickening fear, let
him be assured that the Senator has
become a real haTmonizer since those
far-off days. His attitude toward the
treaty Of peace proves it.-World.

HOW TO STOCK A
STREAM WITH TROUT

II you and q few OF your friends
are interested in stocking a stream
that trout will live and thrive In, and
are lot fully informed as to proce-
dure. the following facts viii be Of
value:
Brook trout win not live in
streams that rise above sixty-eight
degrees temperature in summer.
Banks sof streams should bear
trees or tall shrubs TO provide zee
sary shade and GOODNESS. In open
spaces. quick-growing willows or
black alder should be planted.
Remember that in a manufactur-
ing state OF large towns and cities
sewage, mill, and other refuse pours
into many Of NJ streams. It Is use-
less to put trout in such waters.
The best places for planting are
the rivulets and spring feeders. The
trout viii work their way into the
larger streams as they grow.
Rearing pools on the streams and
side pools built of rock and sod. are
peculiarly suitable for brook trout.
Many of the nsh that have been
distributed have been. unintentionai-
ly placed In unsuitable waters by the
receiver. Therefore. to be sure Of
healthy. normal propagation of
living water should be selected
Notwithstanding laws restricting
fishing to certain seasons OF the year.

ed. According to experts, only from

When Ruth upon the apple falls

Statistics show the New York Yanks
Most Away win the game.
But here's a thing-Babe don't be-

For in this stanza he has not
Dealt put a homer cum.
Folk who contend that home-run
hitters don't mean as much to ball
clubs as the base-hit boys can
gather a little meat from the sta
tistics which show that In the 43
games in which Babe Ruth connect
ed for . waliop or two the Yanks
won 50 of them.
Ruth's war club has been the
turning piont In many of the Yanks'
battles this summer.
A game 1 -never over until the
ninth inning when there Is a chap
like Babe on the batting order.
There il a funny thing about
Ruth's homer syats, though. Out
OF his summers collection Of beau
ties he has eve touched of the
dynamite In that famed lucky sew
enth" inning.

launches in the seventh Inning and
sort OF relax their sitting muscles.
Babe has q habit Of relaxing. too,
when he ONE to the plate and
doesn't connect. But the other eight

Averages show that Babe has hit
eight homers in the sixth inning,
seven In each the first, third and
fourth innings, six in the eighth,
five in the fifth and ninth innings,
three in the second, one in the eiev-
nary a one in the lucky
seventh"
Now. why in the world do o
suppose Babe doesn't spill this mys-
terry theory which surrounds his abb
horrence of the seventh inning bar
isn't over until October 3
When Ruth learned. . few weeks
ago., that he was a few parks shy
around the circuit where he hadn't
showed the ball over. he immediate
ly got busy and corrected any in
ference that some walls were too
far away from him to hit them over.
And when Bambino learns that
he has skipped the seventh inning
in his string of circuit knocks he'll
probably turn up and break up this
theory, too. Z
Babe Is a great boy. He isn't su-
perstitious. He is just a big boy try

American Federation of Labor to or

than ever before. He said that every
where people are leaving the farms for
the cities. immigration is at a stand
still, in the East thousands Of acres
of farm lands and homes are vacant
because of the better paw and living
in the cities. The "small
farms for everybody" movement cant
become general because people will
just naturally have big farms like they
do big factories, etc. The farms must
be made more attractive to young men
and women by enabling them to make
more money and get cheaper labor.
Cotton growers, he said, must stand
the union men are irving to
prevent the importation Of Mexican la
Dor and yet the prosperity of the Un-
ion men in Salt River Valley is due to
cotton industry which will fail if Mex
lean labor is not brought in. The Mex
leans brought in are absolutely salts
fed and are much better off than they
nave ever been before. In Mexico their
living conditions were far worse than
those of the people in the near East,
etc. Many of these poor peo-
pie would be glad to come for food
alone. Humanitarian work is needed
