1919. All the available acreage
about Sanford and Winter Garden is
being planted as usual. The farm
ers are fertilizing heavily and making
all preparation for bumper crops.
AT Kissimmee about a hundred
and fifty acres of strawberries are
now being set out in addition to large
acreages of truck crops. Thru the
well-organized Truck Growers Asso-
citation the Osceola truckers have pur-
chased their plants comparatively and
are getting a reduction on their fertil-
izer purchases. The merchants and
bankers of Kissimmee are financing
those who need help. Several new
people have opened up new farms and
the county agent is holding the CO
operative association together.
"The growers are optimistic and
feel that conditions justify the prep
arations they are making for the pro-
duction of several hundred carloads
of vegetables"

Rapid Growth OF EuCalyptus

The eucalyptus tree was formerly
supposed to make beneficial changes
in malarial regions and for that rea-
son was imported from Australia and
planted extensively in Florida and
California. Later investigations show
that such beneficial influence is con-
fined entirely to the removal of ex-
cess water by Transportation and the
escape of cineol into the air where it
is converted into ozone. The most
remarkable thing about the eucalyp-
tus is its rapid growth. Though it's
wood is hard, fne-grained and dura-
BILE it is said to grow five times more
rapidly than any other tree. Seed
lings have been known to make
daily growth of six inches in height.
One tree in California attained a
height of 1875 feet and a diameter of
thirty-siX inches in nine years. 1t
will not grow where there is frost but
its valuable wood combined with rap
id growth makes it desirable tree
for reforestation in our southern
states where it flourishes.

Didn't Find q GuSher

Last week the Herald published a
little item about oil that appeared on
the surface of water that rose in a
ditch that was dug on the premises of
w. H. johnson. The news quickly
travelled to Jacksonville, and Tuesday
F. D. Click, of the Florida Explora-
ton Syndicate, which is putting down
wells in Lee county, came here to in
vestigate the story. He investigated
and found that the stuff coming out
of the ground was vegetable oil or
iron oil, neither of which are found
in any but very small amounts. He
departed Wednesday morning.

What is recognized as an unusual
honor has come to a Florida man.
The honor is election to the Advisory
Committee of the American Genetic
Association, and the man is Profess
sor John NJ. Scott, vice director and
animal industrialist of the Florida
Experiment Station. This is an an
nouncement that was made in the
September 7, 1922, issue of the Jour
nal of Heredity which is published
This association is an incorporated or
ganization devoted to promoting a
knowledge of the laws of heredity
and their application to the improve
ment of plants, animals and human
racial stocks. It's membership is COM
posed of men of science, teachers,
publicists, physicians, clergymen, par
ents, students, horticulturists and
breeders of livestock throughout the
world. Among the officers and mem
bers of it's Advisory Committee should
be mentioned David FaiTchild, presi-
dent and member of the executive
council, famous explorer and botan-
list; James Wilson, vice president,
who was for years Secretary of Agri-
culture; w. A. Lippncott, professor
of poultry husbandry of the Kansas
State Agricultural College; and E. L.
Thorndike, professor of educational
psychology of Columbia University
Professor Scott's friends are highly
pleased to learn of this recognition of
his rank among the men Of science,
and he is receiving many congratula-
tions. They are saying that Florida
and the University of Florida have
reasons for feeling proud of his cleo
ton to this very important position.

The truckers of Florida are look

according to A. P. Spencer, vice-direc-
tor of the Agricultural Extension Di-
vision, who has just made tour thru
one of the main trucking sections of

pressions of the trip, Professor Spen-
Ger said:

NOT GUILTY OF
ILLEGALLY KILLING QUAIL
lConcluded from first pagel

some particulars. Col. Waltmire,
who represented Rountree, said that
the style of the case should be the
State versus Mr.. Huckabey's dog in
stead of the State versus F. w. Roun-
tree, while Col. Hancock eulogized
the animal and made much of the
part played by it. Many witnesses
were called by the state and the
trial consumed the better part of a
day. However, as stated in the be-
ginning. the jury was out but few
minutes and returned with a verdict
of mot guilty"
Messrs. Rountree a d Huckabey
were fined SO each in the mayors
court as result of an encounter on
the street. the trouble growing out of
the charge that Rountree shot quail.

MURD0Ck

And still it rains, but from obser-
walton Murdoch is about the dryest
place around this part of the country.
Our canals are doing their work nobly
and makes us glad we did not live
here when there were none in this
district.
Our Sunday school is fourishing
and despite the rain there has been
a full and enthusiastic attendance
each Sunday. Something interesting
and unusual can be counted on each
Sunday, which arouses interest and
makes all anxious to be there and
not miss feature. Mrs. A. C. Friz-
Zell, had the Golden Sunbeam" class
which is composed of the young, un-
married grown-ups, to supper Sunday
night, September oath, and a good
time was had with music and CONVEX
sation after supper.
School was opened the first Monday
of September with a goodly number
of children present. Miss Eleanor
Thigpen, of Owens, is the teacher.
Mrs. Paul Mansfield, Sunday school
organist, is confined at her home this
week with dengue fever
Visitors to our burg have been very
scarce for the past few weeks on ac-
count of rains and bad roads. We
a
this condition will not last many more
days. Haven't seen any Punta Cor
da or Charlotte HarbOr neighbors for
a long time, except DR.. Mcqueen, who
manages to visit us occasionally, rain
or shine.
John Ehlers, one OF our most pOpu-
lar young men, is reported on the
sick list. The Sunbeam class went
TO his home to see about him Sunday
afternoon but he was too bashful to
be seen, as the class is composed
mostly of young ladies.
Leroy Thigpen, of Owens was in
the village the latter part of the week
as the guest of Misses Thigpen and
Addison, at the home of John l.. |
Martin.
l.. A. Addison and family, of Fort
Winder, have been trying to move to
MurdOck for the past three or four
weeks, but have been unable to get
here on account of high water be-
tween Platt and the Murdoch drain
age district. We hope the water
will soon dry up and they can come
down, and help swell the number of
inhabitants of this place.
The kiddies were given two DAYS
holiday last week on account of rain,
the teacher being unable to get to
the school house, but most of the
children managed to get there, but
were very glad teacher" didn't ap-
pear.
Murdock's truckers are getting
ready to put in several acres in truck
this fall, and are hoping the rain will
stop in time to enable them to plant
before it is too late.

COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK. July 24.-Continued

reaching 2105, and December 22.0l.

based on predictions for showers and
slightly cooler weather over the
