Dillon Boy Succeeds in Florida

Mr. Q. c. Bryant OF Wagner. Fla.
spent several days last week with
hi father, NIr. Jno. Bryant. who lives
ON the J. Il. Regain plac" four miles
east of Dillon. Mr Bryant went o.
Florida about 20 Years ago and this
is the second trip hc has made back
10 his native home. He said hy had
not forgotten Dillon and home folks.
bHt Ee has been 50 busy getting %
Std;t in iiic that he has not had an
opportunity 10 do much tray,ling
since he left here. Nh. BRYANT Went to
Florida with Mr.. Rogan TO work on
tuIpcntine farm. but when th. tur-
pcntlnc industry began To decline he
turned his attention to truck ralsiu.
The first venturnc Nj Bryant mad,
was TO buy on credit five acres of
land for which ne paid 500. He
cleared the land and planter il In
Truck. His returns were profitable
and he bought more land which he
brought up TO a high state of cult
Natlon. As his holdings increased ne
began 10 buy orange groves and now
he owns five groves which return
him a good profit every year. Mr..
Eryant Is very modest man and il
was not easy to draw him out. but
ne has proposed wonderfully in his
adopted home. He is a large planter
or celery, asparagus, lettuce, beans.
Irish potatoes and numerous other
truck crops. He owns number of
irrigated land which always make
acres of irrigated land which al
ways make him a good crop and his
net profits sometimes run as high
as twenty C$2O,O0O) thousand an
cess Mr.. Bryant said it was no secret:
that any man who would go to Flor
ida. work hard save his money and
lcOk after his business closely could
do the same.
