MIAMI BOOSTERS DISTURB

turbed by nocturnal nuisances. ac-
cording to Col C. S. Coe, city man.
ager, and when such outbursts are
towards him they are so much
misspent labor. Rather they should
consult the city's charter and learn
the means they have of initiating eff
fective counter ordinances.
The colonel's views were embodied
in an answer to an irate citizen re-
Gently, who aggrieved to the point of
seeking vocal outlet by the ill-timed
Growing of roosters in his neighbor-
hood, sought the city manager and
expatiated voeiferously for 80 minutes
of municipal time. The colonel sug-
gested that the next time the citizen
was so awakened he spend the lost
time of sleep in studying the city
charter.

FARMERS CAN OBTAIN PICRIC
ACID AT A SMALL COST

Farmers of this state may purchase
picric acid for blasting stumps, blow
ing holes for trees and similar agri-
cultural purposes. according to re-
cent communication from Director
Wilmon Newell of the agricultural
extension division to the county
agents of Florida.
The College of Agriculture, Univer-
sity of Florida, Gainesville, is in a
position to obtain this explosive thru
the United States bureau of public
roads. 1t will be necessary for farm
ers who desire TO purchase quantities
of the explosive, to do so thru their
county agents. There is no charge for
the acid, but the farmer is required to
pay for the cartridging, small con-
tingency fee to cover expenses, and
for freight, totaling seven cents a
pound. exclusive of freight.
1t will be necessary for all orders to
be made thru count yagents and the
colleeg of agriculture, and no less than
one carload will be shipped to any one
county. Therefore. farmers desiring
to purchase picric acid should get in
touch with their county agent. Money
must be paid in advance by bank draft
or bankers acceptance, and freight
charges must be guaranteed.
Picric acid is slightly more power
full than dynamite, for which it is an
excellent substitute Caution must be
observed in handling it. No metal
tools should be used in working with
it, nor should it be stored near metal
objects.
A stronger concussion than for dy
Mantle is necessary to set off picric
acid. A No. 8 decorating cap should
be used instead of No. 6. No fuses
or detonating caps are furnished, but
may be purchased from hardware
dealers.
If you are interested, communicate
with your county agent. He has full
information and can answer any ques-
tion you may desire to ask.

A GREAT PUBLIC FUNERAL

London, Aug. 25.-The American
and British victims of the disaster
to the ZR-2 will be accorded a great
public funeral, probably in London.
The air ministry has the project under
advisement and an announcement re-
garding it is expected at any time.
Meanwhile all England is giving ex-
preston to its deep feeling of mourn
ing for the victims and sympathy for
those bereaved. Foremost among the
expressions of coincidence was one
from King George to Air Marshal
Trenchard at the air ministry.
As the dirigible was still British
property, not having been turned over
to the American authorities, all inves-
LEGATIONS of the calamity will be
supervised by the British air ministry.

ANOTHER TOMATO RECORD

Sanford, Aug. PA net profit of
s1,1S4.54 from three-quarters of an
acre of tomatoes is the record this
season of F. R. Whittle, Sanford
grower, which is believed here to ex-
ceed that of any other grower in the
state. Mr.. Whittle produced 416
crates from the plot. In asserting that
Mr. Whitt1e probably holds the season
record, it is claimed that all records
heretofore published were for revenue
from one acre and that the figures
were gross. Mr.. Whittle's profit is
net and the revenue was derived from
less than one acre.

Second Day Of
Farmers Meeting

The SECOND day of the annual con-
vention of the Florida division of the
Farmers Union opened this morning
with another enthusiastic and highly
successful session. The features of
this mornings session were the an
nual address of President L. Shep-
hard, of Pomona, and a wonderfully
inspiring address by Miss S. Carey,
of Miami, who, with view to dem
onstrating to the people of Florida
that Florida beef finished in this state,
is superior to western beef, has start
ed ''Finish Steer" movement. The
reports of officers and reports of COM
mittees also took up portion of this
mornings session.
In his address President Sheppard
stated the purpose sof the Farmers
Union. They are ''to discourage the
credit and mortgage SYSTEM" he said.
ITO assist our members in buying and
selling. To educate the agricultural
classes in scientific farming. To
teach farmers the classification of
crops, domestic economy and the pro-
cess of marketing. To systematize
methods of production and distribu-
ton. To bring farming up to the
standard of other industries and bus
mess enterprises"
President Sheppard struck the key
note of his address when he said:
Equal rights for all and special priv
ileges to none will bring peace and
happiness to the homes of American
agriculture"
Miss Carey, in her splendid address,
pointed out that the people of Florida
pay an annual bill of SIS, 5,OOO,O0 for
imported meat and dairy products, ev-
cry ounce of which could be produced
in the state There has been a preju-
dice against Florida beef 1t has been
absolutely proven by many a farmer
and progressive cattle man that Flor
ida beef, finished in Florida, is the
sweetest and most delicious meat ever
served in our markets. Miss Carey
says, but the demand for Florida meat
is so small that it does not pay the
farmer to finish more than a few
choice animals here and there. Yet
the whole situation can be changed in
less than ten months, she says, if ev-
cry man and woman in the state would
come together and agree to create a
market for well finished Florida beef.
Miss Carey's plan is to have a
fenced ranch in every county where
range steers can be finished properly,
slaughtered under board of health in
spection in sanitary abatoir and sold
in the local market of for export. To
get this plan under way Miss Carey
is organizing demonstration herd on
her ranch near Miami. She is asking
leading organizations and prominent
men and women throughout the state
to buy steer at $25. The steers viii
be finished and marketed by her and
each purchaser will get his or her SIS
back plus so per cent of the profits of
the sale.
Miss Carey's plan is meeting with
approval wherever she has been in the
state. She viii be in Ocala for a day
or two and hopes to have number Of
steers purchased here.
The Farmers Union convention
will be in session again tomorrow, con-
vening at o'clock in the courthouse.
