llddS OF INTEREST TO The FARMER
And STOCK GROWER 1T


81 have never eaten such delicious
celery, every bite crisp and of deli
cious flavor from the heart out to the
largest blade of the stalk Developed
land in this section sells for from ST.
$50 to $500 an acre. A celery grow
er told me that the grower was re-
ceiving about three cents a stalk for
the celery in the car. 1t was expected
that 5000 cars of celery would be
shipped from the Sanford district this
year.
THE driver of the car in which I
rode was a large stakeholder and man.
ager of a sixty-acre tract which was
devoted to the raising of celery. He
told me that the market this year
was not nearly SO good as last year
for celery. Il might tell YOU he
said. what we cleared from our tract
last year but you would not believe
me, SO I will not tell you.' Celery
land must be highly developed not
only must there be irrigation, but there
must be drainage, and celery farm
must be tiled about every sixty feet.
Quantities of fertilizers are used in
the preparation of the soil for crop
of celery.

q vitanic eleemnt in these foodstuffs,
whereas previously they largely We're
taken for granted, or were measured
only by their action in diet cases which
were under close observation
Shortly. therefore, we may expect
to see a revision in the scientific
method of valuing foods according to
their availability for the human sys-
tenn. Other experiments, previously
made. would indicate that this reval-
alton must give new impetus to the
consumption of citrus fruits on ac-
count of their high content of virta-
mines.

Citrus Fruits as Aids in Diet
Of Children

says: Many a child is alive. healthy

Creamery for Marion County
County Agent K. c. Moore Is max
ing a survey with a view to determining
the number of producing dairy cattle
in the county and to inducing the es-
tablishment of creamery here.
Mr.. Moore says that Marion county
offers splendid opportunities to the
dairyman. He believes that, with the

which We have, this state, and partic-
aularly this county, can out-rival the
great dairy states Of the North and

Some Things to do on Florida Farms
In May
(By c. K. McQuarrie, State Agent,
Florida Agricultural Extension
Division)
Cultivation.-Most crops are prob
ably already planted This is the
time in which they get the growth
that largely determines their yields.
1t is the month when cultivation is
most important Rains are expected
to be more frequent during the re-
mainder of the season. This will
make necessary frequent civilizations
in order that the soil will not become
crust-coyered and thereby lose mois-
ture Stir the soil with shallow work
ing tools within day after rains.
This also permits aeration in the soil.
Fertilizing.-Watch the growing
crops. If lowered vitality is observed,
top dress with nitrate of soda. or pos
sibly with sulphate of ammonia For
corn this Nitrate of soda) should be
at the rate of $50 to 200 pounds to the
acre, applied broadcast and mixed we'll
into the soil.
The Rice Crop.-If you plan having
homegrown rice for winter, now is
the time to get busy with it. Rice
is crop that deserves more general
popularity in Florida than it has; it
should be grown on practically every
general purpose farm, not only for
home use, but also as a money crop.
1t should be planted between May 20
and June 10 for best results. Plant
in rows about 80 inches apart so that
it can be cultivated Rice requires
plenty of moisture.
Sweet Potatoes.-Florida is natur-
ally adapted to the growing of sweet
potatoes and now is the time to set
out draws or vines. Lands upon which
have been produced spring crops or
winter crops of Irish potatoes or small
grains can be usually planted to sweet
potatoes with reasonable expectations
of good yields. Previously planted
potatoes will require constant cult
walton this month. Rapid vine growth
should be encouraged in order to have
vines to set for June paintings.
The Home Garden The Importance
of the kiechen garden should not be
forgotten in the rush of the cultivat-
ing season. Crops already growing in
the garden demand constant tillage,
and other crops should be planted this
month such as radishes, squash, GU
cumbers. cantaloupes, and Country
Gentleman corn

Club Members to Get Potato Plants

Club Members to Get Potato Plants
Free
Members of the boys sweet potato
clubs have an opportunity to secure ex-
ceptionally fine and healthy sweet POI
tato slips and draws with no cost ex-
cept express charges.
The State Plant Board is growing
large numbers of plants for the work
of graduating the sweet potato weevil
in Baker County, and has taken every
step possible to produce the most vigo-
rous and healthy plants, true to varie-
ty. For two seasons all plants have
been propagateds from the best market
able sized tubers, low-producing hills
being discarded. The Board will have
few more plants than will be requir'
ed in Baker county and will supply
these gratis to members of the boys
clubs thru county agents. the cruz
,,,an,he,s to nay only express charges
from Gainesville.
The varieties available are Nancy
Hall. Porto Rico, Providence. Paattisaw
and Norton
For club member to take advan-
tage of the opportunity he will be re-
quired to plant at least an eighth of
an acre of potatoes. This will require
about 1850 plants. He should see his
county agent promptly in order to
place his order.
The Plant Board has no plants for
sale and will make no distribution of
plants except as explained above.

STOCK MARKET HAS
SHARP RECOVERY

New York, July THE stock mar
Set today experienced sharp re-
covery from its recent heaviness at
ter an initial period in which foreign
oils were again extremely weak.
In the early trading Mexican Pc
sroleum was hammered down to 81
"a, an overnight loss of 1-2 points
and q new low record.
Pan American Petroleum also fell
10 minimum prices for the current
movement, with a nervous and unset
tied tone throughout the list.
Before noon, however, under eX-
tensive buying orders Mexican Petro-
seum rallied to 90 1-2, and other
sis6res of the same class rebounded
proportionately.
The recovery was accompanied by
reports that steps were being taken
10 protect American and British oil
interest in Mexico. -.
The market derived further
strength from an upward movement
IN high class railroad shares, under
LEAD of Louisville & Nashville, which
showed gain of points at midday.

The Moslem Idea of Beauty

An educated Arab, at present in
London, explained the Moslem ideas
of feminine beauty. He said:
among US we say that the perfect
woman must possess four attributes
that are black-hair, eyebrows, eye
ashes and pupils; four that are white
skin, hands, teeth and the white of
the eye; four that are red-cheeks,
lips, tongue and gums; four that are
long-back, arms, fingers and legs;
four that are round-head, throat,
wrists and elbows; four that are
small-eyebrows, nose, lips and fin
gers. Here you have the feminine
form divine as Allah fashioned it"

Cumulative Funeral Services

The custom lin the mountain dis
tricts of the South) is to have a fun
eral preaching every two or three
years for all the people who have died
during that time. Each one is bur
led at the time of his death, but the
preaching is reserved for later day,
when it is convenient for more peo-
pie and more preachers to get there.
Sometimes man will be married
again, and his second wife will be one
of the chief mourners at his first
wife's funeral preaching. This Gus
TOM is dying out to some extent.
The burying and preaching together
are becoming more common.

breaches by Wireless

Rev Clayton B. Wells of Paramount
Congregational church of Wichita,
Kan, sent his regular sermon to a
half dozen cities in the Southwest
by wireless telephone. He talked
through an instrument at a local
plant in Wichita and it is estimated
the sermon was carried at least 900
miles. There are a dozen plants in
the Southwest with which the local
company is in communication and all
of these received the sermon. Prior
to the delivery of the sermon, sacred
music was sung into the wireless
transmitter by the church choir.

Thunder and Lightning.

Thunder always follows lightning
because OF the electric discharge, as II
breaks its way through the atmosphere
instantaneously heats the air In its
path. This sudden heating causes a
violent expansion Of the air along the
path OF the lightning flash and VIC
lent compression of the cool air far
ther away. This process starts a
great air wave, which is the thunder.
When lightning fash occurs near by.
the sharp, cracking reports come from
It's branches, and the heavy crash
comes from the trunk Of the fash.
