bassy here was held by police to-

gave the name of Pierre Berson. Nu-
merous letters were found In his
pockets. Among them was one
threatening the life Of President Mil

Police said the man evidently was

COMPLETION Of
SPANISH TRAIL
BEING PLANNED

Tallahassee, Jan. 10 - Governor
Cary A. Hardee has been asked to ap-
point delegates to represent the state
of Florida at the convention of the
Old Spanish Trail Association to be
held at Gulfport, Miss, on Jan. 1929.
This highway is of especial interest
to Florida, as it is to become one of
the most important highways in the
United States, being the only all
southern, ocean-to-ocean highway,
Florida to California.
The Old Spanish Trail Association
is developing into a emi-hictorical as
ISOLATION, and in its magazine is fea-
turing all of the old missions and his
torical points in the states traversed
by the Old Spanish Trail. The last
convention previous to this one was
held in Tallahassee in 1917. During
the world war no attempt was made
to call meetings.; but the association
has since reorganized an dbroadened
its work, until it is now receiving ma
tional recognition and motor tourists
are including the Old Spanish Trail in
their itinerary.
The highway in Florida extends
from Pensacola to Lake City, thence
to Tampa, via Gainesville, Tampa be-
ing the terminus of the main route of
this highway, the loop runs eastward
from Lake City via Jacksonville, St.
Augustine, Fit. Pierce, Fl. Lauderdale,
and West Palm Beach to Miami. Up
on completion of the Tamiami Trail,
it is the intention to continue the high
way across the state to the west Gelf
coast and thence up to Tampa, thus
making a complete loop around Flor
ida.

his property to another he assumed

it might occur was upheld by the
court.
Justice McKenna, who read the

the effect that "if an OK gore a man

REGARDING SCREENS

Nashville, Tenn, March 1.-The
attention of all proprietors OF food
handling establishments is called
to the fact that the fly season in
Tennessee is regarded rs begin
ming on APRIL and screens should
be installed on or before that date
Each year some people wait nn-
til time to put mp screens and then
suddenly find that they have to or
der new screens or screen wire or
have to overhaul and repair the
screens on hand.
The result is that their places
are already infested with flies be-
fore the screens are IN place.
This advance notice is given in
order that all concerned may make
all necessary preparations to have
their places of hu,iness screened
at the beginning OF the fly season
The past winter has been com
parativeIy mild, With no zero tenn
peratures, consequently 1t may be
expected that flies will appear ear
lier and he more numerous shan
usual during the coming season.
Likewise, it may be expected that
disease germs carried by the lily
will be more prevalent.
1t is, therefore, my opinion that
the general health of the public
requires that this matter be- given
prompt attention, and | expect to
use the entire force of this depart
ment, If necessary, to enforce the

best to use complete fertilizers on
these lands. We suggest a formula
containing from to pr cent of
nitrogen, from 10 to II per cent of
phosphoric acid and from 2 to 3
per cent of potash. On the sandy
loan, we think 2 per cent of nitro
gen, from Z to 8 per cent of phos
phoric acid and from 4 to per cent
of potash will give the best re-
suits.
We have made the analyses of
many soils of this type and have
conducted test plats on the same
for a series of years. These repre-
sent the best deductions and infor-
nation and advice we have been
able to gather relative to the fer
tilization of these lands for the pro-
duction of farm crops. The amuont
of commercial plant food to apply
will vary according to the crops to
be planted. From three to five hun
dred pounds per acre of the for
muIas suggested, however, can be
used with satisfaction under both
corn and cotton.
We believe we have given you as
good information and advice as
We could offer even If we had
taken a sample of your. soil ana
analysed it. While it might vary IN
some respects from the standard
of the types indicated, it would
still approximate them in compost
