nominations in that state will be by
conventions. The Minnesota legisla-
ture last winter enacted law which
Hodifes the direct primary. Ovcf

DALE WILLIAMS
n SENDS STORY OF
ROTARY DOINGS
DELEGATE From Lakeland Club To
Los Angeles World Meeting
Makes First Report

The special train with the Florida
representatives and other Southern
States rolled into Los Angeles on
time. Scores OF other special trains
with thousands of lotarians and their
wives from all over the world arrived
at about the same time. Hundreds
made the trip by auto and some By
steamship. especially those from Chi
ma. Australia and Europe.
Judging from the enthusiasm and
reports all had interesting and de-
lightful trips and arrived in Los An
geles expecting even greater pleasure
and benefits. They were no. disap-
pointed in their expectations, for the
Los Angeles Rotary club. assisted ~
other California clubs, had everything
arranged for the comfort and enter
tainment OF visiting ROtariuns and,
in fact, all Los Angeles welcomed the
Rotarians with open arms. The news
papers of the city extended every
courtesy possible 10 the delegates.
and one entire issue OF the great Los
Angees Times was given entirely to
the Rotary work Of the city and world.
The convention meetings were held
in the great Philharmonic auditorium
and more than 5000 delegates were
present and attended the meetings. II
is impossible to tell OF all the impur-
tant work considered and accomplish
ed. The redistricting OF the clubs on
account OF the great increase Of mem
bership was accomplished and extern
siye plans made for Rotary extension.
All the nations in which Rotary CLUBS
have not been organized have heard
of the organization and It's wonderful
mower and influence for better things
and want to get into the Rotary
ranks Twenty-Five nations are now
Represented, and extension will be
made as rapidly as advisable. The
delegates from England, France, Scot
land. Spain, and other European
countries felt that the extension OF
Rotary in Europe would do much
toward improving conditions there and
the prevention of future wars. The
delegates from Australia. China and
Honolulu were the center OF much
interest, as were those from Cuba.
The annual election Of officers was
accomplished on Friday.
The balloting at the election was
brisk, with William Coppock of Coun-
ell Bluffs, Ia; II. ]. Lutcher Stark Of
Orange, Tex, and Mr.. Ravens, the
three high men. None received a
majority on the first ballot. Mr.. Ha
vens was strong leader on the sec
ond ballot, and his election was made
nnanimous upon motion OF Mr.. Stark.

COUNTY AGENTS
NOTES
VIM. CONNIE. County Agent
Barlow, Florida.

Watch for those small velvety
worms on sweet potato vines. They
cat the leaves to skeleton and can
90 much damage in a very short
time. For eradication and control
dust the vines with IL pound of ar
senate of lead powder to pounds
of hydrated lime.
Rust mite is gaining in many of
the groves. Where noticeable it is
advisable to spray with lime sulphur
LIS, choosing a cool period OF the
day. Do not spray when the tenn
perature is above 80.
On account of the abnormal condi-
ton in many groves heavy bloom ana
young foliage, be careful about using
oil emulsion, for white fly and scale,
as it is very probable that burn will
be the result. If possible let the oil
emulsion go until fall.
Farmers intending to plant truck
this fall, had better get together and
decide what is going to be planted, so
that seed can be obtained and on
the ground properly prepared. 1t is
no use to wait until the last minute.
Do not forget the citrus meetings
at Lake. Wales Tuesday, June 20, at
o'clock in the Scenic theatre and
at 7 p. m. in the school auditorium
Winter Haven at 3 o'clock and Z p.
m, in the school auditorium.
The best tonic and liver regulator
grows in the garden.
1t will not hurt to prune out the
dead wood in the roses, now. Also
remove the old bloom. Then mulch
heavily with barnyard well decomr
posed fertilizer. THIS will insure a
good growth for a fall bloom.
How about planting sweet peas
this fall? Dig a trench now and fill
it with stable manure, and let it re-
main, filling it now and then. This
will insure plentiful and heavy bloom.

among hogs is likely to break out.

FLACLER COUNTY
COMMISSIONER
VICTIM OUTRAGE
S. r. Fields of Bunnell
Is Now In Loughman
Recovering From Bru-
tai Whipping Admins
tered By towards Who
Used. Masks To Hide
Their Identity

Palatka, Fla, June 16.-S. r. Fields
of Bunnell. member of the board OF
county commissioners of Flagler
county, has left the county as the re-
suit of his third logging at the hands
of unidentified persons during the
last few months, according to Flagler
county officials who arrived here to
run down a clue.
The cause of the attacks never has
been learned here, but Fields has
been in the public eye on several oc-
casions. at one time appearing as
plaintiff in injunction suits against
the board Of commissioners in con-
nection with the building of high
way. The third and last attack oc-
Cured at 1880 a. m. a week ago to-
day on the principal streets of Bun
nell. according to the officers. A
stranger rushed from a store and
sprang at Fields. A second stranger
hit the struggling commissioner over
the head with pistol, and a third
threw a heavy canvass blanket or
winding sheet around him. A clerk
in a nearby store, not recognizing
Fields and believing the three were
struggling with an intoxicated man.
attempted to assist them in placing
Fields in an automobile which rush
ed to the scene upon being signalled.
The muzzle of pistol placed against
his stomach caused him to lose all
interest in the affair.
The commissioner was placed in
the automobile and the car disap-
peared toward Volusia county Depu-
ties who set out in pursuit met Fields
half an hour later walking on the
highway toward Bunnell, weak from
loss of blood and in a dazed condi-
ton. He was taken to Bunnell,
which he insisted upon Immediately,
telling friends he had to be out of
Flagler county by shutdown, but ply
sicians, because of his condition, re-
fused to allow him to leave his bed.
He is now at Loughman, in Polk
county, at the home of a brother, and
the Flagler county officers said
friends in Bunnell had heard the
commissioner had expressed the de-
termination to return and attend to
his business affairs.
