ANOTHER PIONEER CITIZEN is
CALLED TO HIS REWARD

The announcement of the death of
Mr.. Henry G. Dunn will be received
with touch of sincere sorrow by the
older citizens q this county.
The deceased was a member of a
pioneer family and lived all his life
in our county. He was Citra's oldest
citizen. Was one of the first to en-
gage in orange growing there where
the industry was first started, and
was, perhaps, the best authority on
its cultivation of any one in Florida.
He was also one of the first to engage
in the development Of the phosphate
industry of our county.
He was brother of the late Hon.
John F. Dunn, for a long time the most
popular of our citizens, was known
as the father Of the phosphate indus
try" in this state and to him belonged
the credit of its development If not
its discovery.
The brothers were always as one
and the two of the states largest and
most profitable industries owed much
to them. They stimulated the activi-
ties Of both industries and did much
to make them remunerative and per-
manent.
Mr.. Henry Dunn was good citizen,
q strong and steadfast friend. an ar
dent lover of his country's welfare and
to men like him the country owes
much for they are its bulwalks of de-
tense in time of stress and storm and
Its leaders along the paths of indus

SILVER EWELRY SOLD
 UNITED STATES MINT

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 24.-Mil- lions of dollars worth of old jewelry and silverware are being taken to the United States mint to be sole to the government for cash. Sixty per cent of the gold and silver taken in last year at the San Francisco mint was secondhand metal, according to Chas. G. Yale, mineral statistician of the mint.
 Family plate, huge silver pitchers and loving cups, old-fashioned and broken jewelry comprise the metal taken to the mint. Several reasons are given for the resale of manufac- tured gold and silver. Silver just now is bringing a high price and many persons are getting rid of silverware they bought in flush times when wag- es were unusually high.
 Many rich families who live down the peninsula and do not occupy their homes continuously are selling their solid silverware and substituting plat ed ware for it. Fear of burglars stealing the silver has caused many owners to dispose of the family plate. It saves the cost of burglar insurance and worrying about thefts.

A New Secret Society

A mother of ten-year-old twins re- gently noticed, with some alarm, that they were becoming addicted to study.
 "Hi, Danny! Are you about ready to play ball?" yelled Tommy.
 "Naw said Danny. "You know what the L. M. T. c. G. would do to me if I didn't get this arithmetic"
 Complete silence on Tommy's part made his mother wonder about the new secret society. Constant refer ence to it, all in the same vein, dur ing the few weeks after convinced her that her sons had joined some youth full band which demanded scholarship.
 Finally, one night, when Danny was in communicative mood, she asked.
 "What is your new play, the L. M. T. c. CT"
 "Taint no play" said Danny. "It's the teacher, Miss Mount"
 "The teacher?"
 "Yes. She's a good teacher and smart all right, and we like her, but she chews gum all of the time so we call her L. M. T. c. G.-Louise Miller, teacher ,chews gum-so we won't for get and think she is so much" h."-In- dianopolis News.

FINISHING STEERS IN THE FEED LOT

Time and again and from all sides and directions the farmer and stock man are being urged to practice bet ter business methods of managing their interests. During this period of high prices it is necessary to make every dollar count and the former slip-shod way of handling the cattle and farm products must be replaced by more efficient management and equipment. The year has witnessed unusual prosperity in all branches of industry, but conditions were abnor- mally unfavorable to the cattleman and feeder. Naturally, as a result of these abnormalities, cattle owners will reduce their herds to guard against further loss, and it is generally pre- dicted by prominent stockmen that as a result of having losses and ship ments, the market should come back strong and to stay.
 With the growth and spread of rail roads and packing interests, buyers are demanding cattle of typical beei conformation in better marketable condition. This has encouraged some cattlemen and ranchers to equip their ranches so as to feed and fatten their cattle at home.
 The finishing of steers in the feed is far from child's play. The feed CT in order to realize safe margin must be familiar with the results of the daily ration, cost of feeds, the beef market and most important of all, to know whether or not the steers are putting on gains at a profit or loss. Margins in feeding are not al ways so wide that the average feeder can take unnecessary risks, and in or der to safeguard against any serious loss the animals in the feed lot should be weighed at regular intervals so that the feeder may determine by their weight the results of his work.
 Feeders in the Salt River and Gila Valleys are preparing to install stock scales on their ranches so as to keep better account of the cost of gains rel ative to the necessary margin. These scales should be placed in close prox- imity to the feeding lot where it would be convenient to handle the cattle. They could also be used for the weigh ing of the hay and grain or any other large quantity of farm products on the ranch. The use of stock scales will prove invaluable to the feeder as a means of determining whether his steers are making profitable gains.

CANADIAN EXCHANGE
 SHOWS BIG DECLINE

The sharp discount at which the Canadian dollar is received in the United States is causing serious diff diculty in trading across the border and has reached such point that the Interstate Commerce Commission is asked to take some sort of action to equalize railway charges. The proposition is to divide the joint rate at the border so that the pro portion of the through rate applica- ble to each country will be payable in the currency of that country. Just how this is going to be worked, out in detail is not quite clear, but it is evident that something will have to be done.
 Canadians themselves seem to hold the idea that in some way the United States is to blame for the present sit uation and that it is committing an offense against the country in not recognizing Canadian money at par. It is, of course, all based upon the proposition that Canada has bought more from the United States than the United States has from Canada and that the balance of trade is therefore strongly in favor of this country. It has resulted in heavy shipments of Canadian grain to this country, which is about all that Canada can offer in an effort to equalize the balance.
 One effect of the present situation is that American farmers near the Canadian border are being induced to sell their land and move into Canada, where they are able to buy new lands almost at the difference in exchange. In other words their American dollars are worth so much more in Canada where lands are cheaper that the premium is sufficient for the new in vestment.

DEEP MYETERY IN TIN

There are records of the use of tin by the ancients, but it is rare that any implements of this metal are found by archeologists. This is said to be due to the circumstance that a sort of de- cay attacks it, producing change in its crystalline structure, the nature of which does not seem to be clearly un- derstood. This ends in reducing the tin to a fine gray powder. The pro- cess proceeds much more rapidly at certain times than it does at others and seems to be transmitted from one piece of tin to another.

Tells of Heroic Act.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
On Friday. July l, at about 5:23
r. m, at Eighteenth and L streets
northwest, l witnessed a very
spectacular rescue of a runaway
automobile by a Capital Traction
Company conductor, whose number
was $50. This act of mercy was
more thrilling than any of Doug
las Fairbanks photoplays ever pro-
duced, and had it not been for this
quick-thinking individual l am posi-
tive that several small children n.
playing on the sidewalk in front of
l7S0-S2 Florida avenue, would have
been jammed against a large plate
glass show window.
This auto was parked against the
west curb of Eighteenth street, near
California. avenue. when. for some
reason. the machine started rolling
down the hill backwards. This
place, is on a very steep incline. A
street car coming down the hill had
just made a compulsory stop before

Why and Wherefore?

A GREAT many people have wondered why men,
n kindly, good natured happy men, like to see
prize fight. Why did 10000 crowd the
Dempsey-Carpenter arena and pay S., 100000 to see
these big fellows slug each other? Whatever the
real reason it that they enjoyed hearing the
thud of blows. to blood fow nor witness ply
sical punishment 1t must be remembered that
every there knew that it not possible
either could be seriously permanently in
jured with the sort of gloves they wore and that
f-a knockout came, it would be but momentary
daze.
But why do thousands of men go to hear opera
who do not understand nor appreciate care
for the music? Why do so many go to social
functions knowing they will be bored and that
regrets" would be acceptable as their presence!
Probably half those who the fight went because
it was "the thing" the big event of the sporting
year, the like, of which might not come again in
their generation. They went because they knew
all their friends and acquaintances would be there
They would be odd" if not there and it was worth
the cost and trouble to say they had seen the hight
Certainly not one in of that huge audience
knew the science of boxing we'll enough to follow
the fight closely. Probably not 100 of the 10000
knew how the final blow was given or what it was
that resulted in the opening which led to it. They
got little than impression of the whole at
fair With exceptions, they did not understand it
of them went because the rest to be there
and because it would be most extraordinary
spectacle.
Did you ever see and boys stand for
hours and watch other men at work, or some such
machine excavator in operation? Every
show-window artist knows that anything which
moves any mechanical device in operation or any
person doing something, will keep crowd in
front of a window. Imagine then the attraction OF
two men, perfect physical specimens, whose move
ments were like those of panther, whose play of
gloved hands, of arms and feet were too swift for
the eye to distinguish. 1t indeed must have been
fascinating.
As fact it not prize fight, there was
little of severe punishment to men so fit using big
padded gloves. 1t a sparring match, less
wicked in hurts than many hockey or lacrosse
game than polo wrestling even football. 1t
was sparring match, with the inherited bad name
of the bare-hst przehght.

Comment on Fighters.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
The writer has been waiting for
fght-crazed America to return TO
normalcy before making any COM
ment on the brutal exhibition in
New Jersey. July 2. From what
we learn of the sentiment of the
country. sporting America was root
ing for the Frenchman to win. the
reason being that when there was
plenty of fighting to be done dur
ing the world war, he did it will
ingly.
America applauds a hero. The
writer is of the opinion that every
one who donned a uniform. as well
as everyone who by any means
helped stay the Hun should be
reCkoned as a hero or heroine. /
cannot for the life of me, though,
understand why the Americans will
yell and laud a foreign hero and
pay the price to see him fight, when
our own war cripples have to put
up with the conditions, as stated
in the newspapers, concerning our
so-called hospitals established for
these wrecks of carnage.
1t is we'll that America keeps
alive the spirit of Rome. when she
made her gladiators kill each other
for the amusement of the popuIace.
1t is well that The days of chiv-
airy" have not passed from our vast
domain. If men must fight why
not let them fight to help "our
boys" who, suffering under wars
Affections, cannot fight any more :?

STUDY OIL AND MEAL
YIELD OF COTTON SEED.

To guide producers. dealers and
crushers Of cotton seed so that they
may know more nearly the content
of the product in which they are
dealing and be better able to JudCe
its value, the Department ~ Agri-
culture has published a bulletin on
Composition Of Cotton Seed"
This gives data showing as nearly
as possible approximate oil and
meal yield in each county Of The,
cotton belt. Records Of the analyses
of Is.O2a samples studied during tte
five-season period from lsl4-l5 To
.1s1s-Ia. inclusive. are given in
"a abIes in the bulletin.
The composition Of cotton seed,
according 10 the bulletin. is inhu-
enced by climate. soil, seaon. fer
tiIizer and variety. as well as by
methods Of treatment of the seed
before and after the cotton is
picked These factors vary so much
that seed is Of different value. not
only in widely separated sections
and in different years. but in a
particular community at the same
time. Early seed, however, usually
has greater moisture and a smaller
oil content. and late seed is usually
affected adversely by weather con-
ditions.
The average oil content for The
United States during the three sea
sons from 1s16-I7 TO 1858 was
sos pounds per ton Of seed. and the
average meal content for the same
period was e7s pounds per ton OF
seed.
