FLORENCE


FLORENCE, signifying tlourishing,
\ can scarcely be separated from
it's quaint diminutive Flora, meaning
flowers. Flora in NEUROLOGICAL legend
was the goddess of the flowers, and
the festivals Of Flora or Floralia were
celebrated in the first burst Of spring.
In later times, the name of Florus
was formed from that Of the goddess,
and Is memorable as that of the proc
orator whose harShness drove the
Jews to their last rebellion. 1t is be-
lieved that the feminine Flora came
from this.
There is a church at Florence Of
Saints Flore and Lucilla, but other
wise the first instance of the name Is
In Roman-GOthic Spain, where the I'M
happy daughter of Count Julian was
called by the Spanish diminutive
FloriMda, and thus caused the name to
be so much detested that, while Span
ish ballads call her La Cava the
wicked, her Christian name was only
bestowed on dogs.
A Spanish maiden martyred by the
Moors brought Flora into better repute
1t became Flore in France, where it
was adopted as a romantic epithet
and from there it found it's way
to Scotland. In the Gaelic, it is
spelled Florie, as the island heroine
of the as wrote herself. Florentia
1voc n ooturoI Y,roduot ond nomad a
feminine saint martyred in Diocletian's
reign in Gaul.
The prevalence of the name Flor
ence, in England, seems to have been
due to so many English girls being
born in the Italian city of that name.
Deeper and dearer honor has been
given to it by Florence Nightingale.
Many fictitional heroines have borne
the name and It's derivatives Blanche
fieur, meaning white flower, is one
of It's forms, and was bestowed
OH Sir Trystan's mother. Versions,
particularly romantic, are found with
Ariosto's two heroines, Fiordespina
(thorn flower) and Fiordilizi (deur
de lys).
Florence or Flora, used by the Irish
peasantry, become Fingnan or Fincen.
Florrie and Flossie and perhaps even
Lora, are purely American diminu-
tives.
The carnelan is FIorence's tails
manic gem. It's warm, bright color is
said to dispel timidity and give cour-
age, vitality and animation. 1t like
wise brings good luck to the bearer
of the name. To dream OF it, how
ever, signifies impending misfortune.
Florences lucky day is Saturday, and
1 is considered her lucky number.

TEXAS MAN BREEDS QUEEN
BEES FOR EVERY MARKET
BY Use of Artificial Means lie
Fools the Bees and Reaps
Income Of $4,000 a Year.

Raising and selling queen bees
bring to e. b. AuIt an annual revenue
Of more than $4,000, and most OF this
is profit. Mr.. Ault's queen bee farm is
near Calallen, Tex, and is in us
twelfth year of successful operation.
He ships tie queen bees all over the
United States and to foreign lands
including Australia, Japan and c0un-
tries of Europe and South America.
He also ships many colonies Of work
ing bees.
Breeding queen bees is done partly
by artificial means There would be
no money in the industry If the ma
turul breeding method of the bees
were depended on for queens. 1t Is
explained. 1t was discovered that the
working bees, like carpenters, per-
formed their work according to the
plans and specifications Of the archl-
tect; so Mr.. AuIt began building large
cells for queens In the artificial wax
comb foundation. These queen cells
are then filled and produce queens
according to the foundation specitlca-
lions.
AS result of this artificial method
Mr.. Ault obtains about 100 queens
from every hive Of 1000 to 5000 work.
ing bees, instead Of only one queen.
The bees are fooled, but they do not
seem to mind 1t.
Queen bees vary in price. When
the demand is slow they sell for as
low as 81, but ordinarily they bring
$3.50 to $2.75 each. Just now there Is
an extraordinarily good demand for
them and the price is on the upward
trend.

County Sunday
School Convention

The Lees!,urg Baptist Church
mas invited the annual County
Sunday School Convention for all
denominations to meet with them
on July 10, 1923, according to an
announcement made by the
officers of the Lee County Sunday
School Association. The hospi-
tality of these people is we'll
known and doubtless the Sunday
School people from every section
will attend in urge num-
bers. The convention will lie an
all day affair, it is understood,
and dinner will he served on the
grounds at noon hour in picnic
style.
The State Sunday School AS,
ISOLATION is offering two banners:
one to the school with the Iarg-
est number Of delegates present
in proportion to the distance
travelled; and another to the
School having the largest num-
Der of it's officers and teachers
present in proportion to the dis
lance travelled, provided rs per
cent of them are in attendance
This will, no doubt, be a big in
centive for most of the churches
to WORK up a large attendance.
The Sunday school superin-
tendents and the pastors are
asked to take note of this ard
see that a fine attendance is
worked up from their schools.

Politicians in Europe have been
manipulating the other measure-the
money measure-in much the same
way. Some of them in America want
to tamper likewise with the dollar
Here is about the way it would work
out. Suppose, when the farmer
brought his product to market the
basket measure was honest enough
and he got dollar bill for each
bushel. He'd take his dollars home
and save them. Perhaps he planned
TO buy some land next his own for a
thousand dollars, and figured that IN
a wear or so he could make it.

Drink More Water.

We need 70 make an effort to drink
good, fresh Water-at least two or
three quarts daily-besides the fluid
taken at meals.
Physicians tell us if we drink enough
water while eating reasonably of the
right kind Of food, we will be relieved
of sciatica, lumbago and constipation
and q score of other ills. If we could
realize the necessity of plenty of wa
ter, the body being over three-fourths
water in its composition, we would
form the habit Of frequent drink
ing of water. The skin, mucous men,
branes, Kidneys and other organs need
much water to function properly, and
when 1t is denied them the body re-
bells and we suffer all sorts Of ills.
The fruit juices prepared from
grapes, raspberries, currants and other
fruits are all most satisfying, and 4

Science

The most important factor in the
growth of any community, on a per
manent basis, is the agricultural de
velopment of the land All other
sources of wealth are secondary.
The growth of Southern California
often has attracted speculation and
theories from business experts. The
real cause is found by the United
States Department of Agriculture to
lie in farming. The soil crops of Los
Angeles County for the last year
brought sixty million dollars. This is
the largest agricultural value of any
section of that size in the world. 1t
is greater than that of the entire
States of Massachusetts, Connecticut
or Wyoming.
Shortly before the Civil War, Gen.
eral Sherman. then captain of the
United States Army. was sent to that
section to report on its probable flu
ture value to the country. He stated
that it would never be Of use because
1t was a sandy desert surrounded by a
forbidding and dangerous country
Irrigation proved General Sherman
wrong.

Heard in Smoking Room

| A LAWYER had just got a roar
Al out of the fellows in the smok-

when a real dirtfarmer looking fell
low on the end seat said:
up above here in Wisconsin a
ways, one time, a party of lawyers
that had been on a case in st. Paul
got stalled at the village of Atwater.
AS the whole train was colder than
Greenland and wouldn't move for two
hours, the party got off and huddled
about the baseburner in the depot's
small waiting room. They made a
solid circle around the stove and had
got to going tooth and nails on re-
plevins. demurrers. deeds and such,
when the door was burst open and a
hackwoods looking fellow came in.
He had on tremendous leggins and
bore a pack and was blue with the
cold. but not one in that circle moved
