She said. The charge made against
the taxpayers for the 1888 1899
period was $1.205 ,545. The charge
is not made against property decd
cd 10 the state after five years Of
delinquency in tax payments.
Under the present system of tax
alton. ne declared, the charge
against the taxpayers becomes less
as the percentage of delinquent
property Ceeded to the state in
creases. Every year more and more
of the delinquent property becomes
the property Of the state and thus
is removed from the county tax
rolls as taxable property

OLD BAHAMA HOUSES
Eaton and Williaml

Floated over on schooners in
1865 from Abaco, Bahamas, were
this home and that adjoining.
They were built of cypress by
ship carpenters. Original wooden
posts and barrel poured concrete
are the foundations. Notice the
old style doors and windows, no
two alike. Ratings and columns
are in solid pieces mortised and
joined as strongly as in a ship.
On the right side of the house
may be noticed a style of differ
ent widths of boarding, a quaint
bay, an attic window with "a old
style small panes. The ciStern is
the original. Coping on the gable
is of unique cut. The house is
on the southeast corner and the
adjoining one is on William street.

WE NEED BEACH FACILITIES

Complaints reaching The Citizen to
the effect that South Beach, sometimes
known as Rest Beach, is in an unsanitary
condition and needs attention, give rise to
the question-what has become of the
movement to provide this city with ade-
quate beaches and bathing facilities?
South Beach certainly is in deplor-
able condition. To it every visitor with
yen for dip in the ocean off this southern
most island travels to South Beach. It is
clogged with sea weed, floating debris and
filth and is ore of the poorest advertise
ments this city has to offer.
Just who is responsible for this condi-
ton? Certainly not the owners, who per-
mitted the beach to be used by the public
when the rehabilitation program was put
into effect under the FERA. The owners,
the majority of whom hail from Boston,
made verbal agreement for public use of
the beach and may abrogate that agree
ment at any time. FERA workmen used
to keep the beach clean and sanitary and
later the WPA performed somewhat the
same function under the mulch project for
use of the collected seaweed as fertilizer.
Now the beach is another public Or
phan. The owners won't do anything
about keeping the spot in good condition
and the city apparently cannot perform
the same task because of shortage of
funds Then, too, if the city did have the
money and did desire to maintain the
beach, the owners repeatedly would re-
quest cancellation of back taxes and de-
mand freedom from taxation while the
beach was in public use.
The whole thing gets back to the self
evident fact that Key West needs a beach
of her own where our home folks and the
visiting public might disport themselves in
clean sand and surf kept free of seaweed
and debris. The Citizen urged this vital
Improvement time and time again in the
past and for time last spring it seemed
as though Key West was going to get some
action along that line.
County commission, the WPA and
several civic organizations interested
themselves in proposal to make surveys
along the south shore of the island to de-
termine the most suitable spot for beach
on publicly controlled land. Nothing seems
to have been done lately to forward that
program-and it is time this city recog-
nized the fact that if she wants to become
a tourist center she will have to furnish the
tourist with adequate surf and bathing
facilities.

WHAT INSPECTION SERVICES
DO FOR NATIVES OF FLORIDA


While most of us know that the
state maintains a variety of in
spection services, few of us know
why, and a lot of folks are inclin-
ed to look down their nose at
the whole business, contending
that such services are unneces-
sary and were originally estab-
lished to provide jobs for the
faithful and at the same time ex-
pense and annoyance for the tax
payer and the public.
One reason for this is that the
principle mental exercise most OF
US get is jumping at conclusions
We form our opinions without
any facts or information. Another
is that state officials have been
lax in providing such data, and
so the effective work they do is
often yelled in deep mystery, lit
tie understood and not appreciat-
ed.
Destroy Unfit Merchandise
Last week ] happened to meet
Phil c. Taylor, chief of the in
speetion bureau of the State De-
partment of Agriculture, that OPP
crates directly under Commission
er Nathan Mayo, and learned
a lot of things never knew be-
fore about the various inspection
services maintained for your and
my protection.
Day in and day out corps OF
trained, experienced inspectors
keep busy examining foodstuffs
meats, butter, eggs, canned goods
gasoline, fertilizer, insecticides
citrus fruit and a lot of other
things, and annually destroy mil
lions of cans, packages and car
tons of merchandise found to be
below standard, adulterated, of
grade, impure or otherwise unfit
for consumption.
Check Weighing Equipment
Pumps, weighing machines and
scales in factories, wholesale
houses and in retail establish
ments are constantly tested to in.
sure full weight and measure, and
when you stop to consider the
number of plants. warehouses anC
stores to he checked, you can be.
gin to appreciate what a gigantic
task it is.
The foodstuffs inspection divi
sion is one of the most important
services maintained by the state
and their constant vigilance safe
guards the health and pocket
books of millions who would 9th
erwise be at the mercy of un
scrupulous tradesmen. ~
Housewives Are Fooled
While most merchants are hon
est and try to give fair value
there are others who try to ge
by with short weight, misrepre

sentation and sometimes down
right fraud.
The housewife in search of
bargains" is easy to fool and is
often taken advantage of. Items
offered at ridiculously low prices
should be looked on with more
or less suspicion, for while deal
ers often do offer high-grade mer-
chandise as loss leaders, many
so-called bargains" are high at
any price. Butter, for example,
under federal and state stand
ards should not contain over 16
percent moisture. 1t has been
found to contain as high as 60
percent moisture by state inspec-
tors.
Destroy $4,000 of Tomato PURGE
Recently inspectors destroyed
over $4,000 worth of canned to-
mato puree, which examination
by chemists revealed was unfit to
eat, being residue, parings, and
waste from a tomato factory.
Cans have been found to be un-
der size, to have false bottoms
and contents not up to standard
in the required proportion of
liquids and solids.
Customers are often misled in
the purchase of grits, meal, sugar
and other items purchased by the
grocer in bulk and repacked in
paper bags. Repacked goods are
most frequently found to be short
weight.
Sugar Catch"
In one distributors retail store,
2 Id. cartons of sugar were prom
inently displayed at sale price
Of lie with large stack of small
paper bags displayed near the
factory-packed cartons, these bags
being offered for 10c The catch
in it was, the store had packed
these paper bags which only
weighed 20 ounces, but the
weight shown on the bag was
marked with a "2" very legible
and the 20" so scrambled with
the "OZ" that the customer would
! just see the SO" and think she
was getting 2 lbs. of sugar, and
naturally she would take the re-
packed 20 OF. paper bags at TO-,
passing up the full 2 Id. carton at
12c. va
The safest and surest way to
insure full weight and full value
is to purchase known and adver-
tised brands that come factory
packed, for their quality is stand
ard and their weight exact.
But it is too long a story to at
tempt to tell in one column, SO
I'll tell you more at later date.
But don't ever get the idea that
inspection service isn't necessary
! and worthwhile, for it is, and
Commissioner Mayo deserves
great credit for the way he has
maintained it.

KEY WEST LIGHTHOUSE
Whitehead and Divisicnl

The Key West Lighthouse was
originally constructed on White
heads spit in 1925. The present
lighthouse was built in 1916 to re-
place the former structure. 1t has
the distinction of being the fur
thest inland of any lighthouse in
the United States. The structure
is 81 feet high and the light is
visible for at least Is miles. Prior
to the establishment of this light
losses of vessels wrecked on the
surrounding shoals ran into mil
lions of dollars. In the yard are
many interesting Key West trees
and an 'aviary of vari-colored
tropical birds.

If the city council should

If the city council should insist in
bringing parking meters into Key West, it
will be confronted with the task of supply
ing watchmen so the meters will not be
mutilated and the contents stolen, though
the latter will be of least concern, as they
will not be used to any great extent during
the winter months and practically not at
all in the good old summer time" There
is still ocular evidence of what vandals did
to the street lights, Mayor Alhury should
unhesitatingly decline to sign a contract
with any parking meter company.
