With a view of giving to its many readers the conditions existing for the first quarter of the year and the pros- pects for the future The Record has made the same careful inquiries in reference to trade and to the industrial and finan- cial condition of the State that it made and presented at the first of the year. When the reports from our correspond- ents in various parts of Florida came to hand at the beginning of the year, every correspondent, covering the various phases of the industrial and financial life for his particular section, spoke in the most encouraging terms of the conditions existing at that time. The reports just in from every part of the State as well as interviews with the business men of Jack- sonville are to the effect that the proph- esies made at the beginning of the year have more than been met and that the future offers only the greatest encourage- ment. In every line of trade, in every line of industry the same is true. The naval stores, the lumber, the truck farm- ing, the fruit growing, the stock raising and in fact all the industries, enterprises and trades of Florida are in a more pros- perous and more promising condition now than ever were in the past and with every prospect in the future. Some of the letters received offer the greatest encouragement. The following are the reports so far received: Pensacola. Pensacola suffered to a certain extent on account of the troubles of the past summer, but they were not sufficient to stay the progress which this city has been making for the past several years. Every branch of trade and every industry is prospering. I have seen the bankers and all of them state that the city's business for the first quarter this year is far ahead of last. The growth appears substantial and only the very best is promised for the future. The greatest activity is evident in the building line, which is always a cri- terion to go by. Several magnificent blocks are in course of construction. The deposits at the banks exceed those of last year for the same period. Quincy. Progress here continues apace.

The fire here a few months ago has spurred us on and building is the order of the day. A new railroad from Fort Ogden to Bocoa Grande is being built by the Peace River Phos- phate Company, known as the Alafia, Manatee and Gulf Railroad. This will prove a great developer for this section of the State. The outlook for citrus fruits for the current year is good. Miami Dade county continues to lead the State in growth and development. There has been a perceptible increase in wealth and growth in this city and county over the same period last year. Every indus- try shows a gain. The tarmers will have one of the most successful years in their history. The extension of the Florida East Coast Railway is doing a great deal progress and business development in a most forcible manner: National Bank of Jacksonville: "Busi- ness is far ahead of last year.

Times-Union Bureau, Miami, March 30. -Since the order has been issued direct- ing the tax collector of this and other counties to collect the drainage tax, there has leen more dissatisfaction shown than previously. Numerous letters are being written expressing in most positive terms the disapprobation of the writers. Under the present conditions, the small land hold- ers of the counties must bear the burden of draining State lands. If the lands are ever drained the entire State will receive the benefit from their sale, while the peo- ple of the several counties have paid the entire expense of the work. This the tax- payers in the so-called drainage districts object to. If they are forced to drain these lands, being yearly taxed for that purpose, the lands when drained should be the property of those who have furnished the money to accomplish the work. If the State is to own the lands when drained, the entire landed property in the State should be taxed to do the work, as the State would sell the lands and the monies received for them would go into the State treasury. It is also the opinion of many who own pine lands bordering on the Glades, that the drainage of this great tract of land would have a very detrimen- tal effect upon this class of lands. This is especially true of the pine lands in Dade county. Much of the tract known as the Everglades is considerably higher than the pine lands. The rock being of a porous nature, the water is forced upward, giving to this southern section one of the most complete sub-irrigation plants known, or that has ever been devised. By lowering the water level it is claimed that it will be a great damage to the property owners in this section. Just why the few land owners in Dade county should be taxed to drain State lands, the State receiving the entire benefit, is an unsolved problem to us poor crackers. Might makes right, but not justice. LUMBER FOR FRANCE. CUrrespon ngtl. pellou as year.

Progress Made by the Industry During the Past Five Years. During the past five years the capital in- vested in the cottonseed oil and cake in- dustry in this country has more than doubled and the value of the products has increased nearly 65 per cent. Statistics prepared by the census bu- reau comparing the year ending Decem- ber 31, 1904, with that ending May 31, 1900, show a great increase in number of establishment and extent of products. The fiscal year of many of the establishments engaged in this industry ends during the fall. The establishments were given the option of making their reports for the fiscal year or for the calendar year cov- ered by the census. Therefore, the statis- tics for all of the establishments do not cover the same period of 12 months. One of the interesting features of these statistics is the quantity and value of the cottonseed crushed and the quantity and value of the primary products obtained from the seed. These primary products are subjected to further manufacturing processes, the crude oil being refined and large quantities of the other products used in the manufacture of fertilizer, cattle. feed, etc. The total value of the primary products was $69,406,463, which includes all products obtained directly from the cottonseed. The $96,407,621 shown as the gross value of the finished products of all establishments engaged in the industry in- cludes the duplications incident to the manufacture, such as the refining of crude oil and the production of feed and fertili- zer.

THE WEEKLY INDUSTRIAL RECORD. 5 SLACK COOPERAGE WOODS. The Species Used for Barrels, Kegs, and Tube Studied by the Government. Three hundred million barrels, according to trustworthy estimates, as manufactured every year. Of these, probably the greater number are used to hold solid contents, such as flour, sugar, cement, lime and po- tatoes or other farm products, and are called "slack" barrels, as distinguished from "tight" barrels, which are used for oil, liquors, wines and other fluids. Woods suitable for slack cooperage are commoner and cheaper than those used for tight bar- rels, which were once made almost ex- clusively from the finest white oak ob- tainable, and which must always require material of a high grade. Nevertheless, slack barrels of the better grade, notably flour barrels, require material which, like elm, is rapidly becoming scarcer. With the enormous drain on supplies, manufac- turers are already feeling the need of economizing in the use of the rarer woods and of finding serviceable substitutes among those more plentful. In the past the cooperage industry, which is highly fastidious in its choice of woods, has culled the best large trees on hundreds of thousands of acres of forest, from which it cannot again obtain mate- rial for a long period. Moreover, the amount of wood discarded in slack-coop- erage manufacture is necessarily very large, ranging from 45 per cent of the timber in staves to 74 per cent in head- ings. This discarded wood is in large part not usable for cooperage, but some of it could, in many cases, be used for the manufacture of small dimension stuff and other similar products. Here, again, as in the case of lumbering, lumber manufac- ture, and wood-working industries in gen- eral, the question of the utilization of waste assumes prime importance. The necessary consumption of all wood prod- ucts noto only must continue, but must continue to grow, and conservation of re- sources must largely take the form of substituting use for waste. To convert the great waste of the slack-cooperage mills into salable products, and thus to restrain needless forest destruction, merits, there- fore, careful study. In consequence of this two-fold drain upon supplies, first, in the exploitation of the forest and, second, in the high per- centage of loss at the mill, slack cooperage must now depend on small holdings for supplies. In the Northern States it is, like the vehicle industry, commonly forced to go to the farmer's woodlot to secure timber of the needed dimensions and qual- ity. Even as it is, the average life of a hoop mill in Ohio is only about four years, after which the manufacturer either goes out of business or moves to fresh fields. Throughout that State and Michigan the large number of abandoned cooperage mills and the constant shutting down of ex- pensive modern plants indicate the ex- haustion of the region. Under the pres- sure of these conditions the industry is shifting steadily southward. Manufacturers of slack-cooperage woods are well aware, from their long experience. of the difficulties which beset their busi- ness, and are ready to profit by any prin- ciples which a broad study of its conditions may bring out. Such a study, however. they do not feel in a position to carry on individually. For this reason the United States Forest Service has taken up the subject, with a view to ascertaining what improvements and economies in manu- * facture are practicable; what woods car be added to the present list of cooperage woods; what woods are best adapted foi each purpose in cooperage; and what are the amounts of wood consumed in the in dustry. A preliminary study of slack-cooperag4 problems has already been completed foi the North Central, Central and some oi the Eastern States. This has served t< suggest several lines of special investiga tion which are to be taken up in turn bI the Service, and in addition, has brought' out in some detail the requirements whicl cooperage woods must fill. For barrel staves the best woods ar those which are pliable, strong, clear o imperfections, of light weight, and prefer ably of bright appearance. In the bes grades of barrels, such as flour barrels staves, combining all these requisites ar demanded. Elm is one of the few w-loil now used whliicli Issess them. Where foodstufl's liable to le tainted with a for- eign flavor are packed. as in the case of butter, none but tasteless woods are suit- able. These requirements narrow the choice of woods to such species as spruce and white ash for butter tubs. and wlhitv pine for brine and pickle packages. Hoops for slack barrels are of three kinds-"patent" hoops, made by cutting up sawed boards of elm; "racked" hoops, made by splitting black ash: and "half- round" hoops, made by dividing young saplings of such tenacious woods as hick- orq, birch, or beech. The fancy for split saplings. which still prevails, is believed to be largely due to prejudice. The at- tempt to substitute wire hoops for wooden ones on slack barrels has been successful thus far only as regards the "bilge" or central hoop: the end hoops need to be of wood in order to protect the thin ends of the staves. Barrel headings, as well as staves and hoops, have their peculiar requirements. A good heading must be light, must re- tain a tight joint, must be sound, smooth, without warp. bright looking and thor- oughly dry. Basswood is one of the spe- cies preferred for this use. Among the special problems which con- front slack-cooperage manufacture is that of the best means of drying the wood for each specific purpose. Kiln drying. though widely used, has not been entirely suc- cessful. and the same is true of air drying and of piling methods. The warping of wood in drying, and, still more, mold, cause much difficulty and stand in need of exact investigation. Another problem is the more accurate determination of the pliability and strength of different woods. What is needed is not to multiply the available woods for products of the infe- rior grades, since these are not profitable, but rather to discover new material for the better ones, or, at least, if this be impossible, to develop the use of the pres- ent leading woods to the point of the highest efficiency and economy. It is the design of the Forest Service to prepare a publication dealing with the conditions and problems of cooperage man- ufacture. This publication will discuss the woods used for the different branches of the industry in the States visited and the properties of wood required for the differ- ent. slack-cooperage products, and will pre- sent statistics of the number of staves and hoops and sets of heading turned out in 1905, by grades, species and States. BIG TIMBER LAND DEAL. Dispatches from Lake Charles, La., to the Manufacturers' Record announce that the Long-Bell Lumber Co., of Kansas City, Mo.. has closed negotiations in that city for the purchase of all mills, tram- roads and timber lands of the Bradley- Ramsey Lumber Co. for a consideration of about 1'4,000.000, the transfer to be executed as soon as necessary abstracts are prepared. Included in the sale are the Mlt. Hope and Michigan mills, located at Lake Charles. La.; a planing mill, the Lake Charles Chemical Co.'s plant for utilizing the waste products from these mills, the Lake Charles & Leesville nar- row-guage railroad, extending north from Moss Bay about 30 miles, tugs and barges and about 105,000 acres of timber lands, of which 65.000 acres are virgin. It is stated that the Lake Charles & Leesville Railroad will probably be relaid with heavier rails, made standard gauge and extended into Lake Charles. Milling ope- rations at that city will be under the management of J. H. Woodring of St. Louis. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING OF THE AMERICAN OAK LEATHER TANNING COMPANY.

BIG SALE OF SUBURBAN LOTS. Jacksonville Development Company Breaks All Records. The Jacksonville Development Company is bringing to a close this week perhaps the most phenomenal sale in suburban real estate ever known in the Southern States. On the 15th of February, less than six weeks ago, it offered its Grand Park sub- division to the public at the low price of $50 for lots 50x100 feet, on the easy pay- ment basis of $3 cash and $1 a month without interest and taxes until paid for. The company expected a rush as the lots were regarded from the first as an unusual- ly good investment. In this it was not disappoitned, as when the doors of the De- velopment Company's offices opened on the morning of the 15th there was a crowd of people on the secen to make early pur- chases. Over three hundred lots were sold the opening day. The second day the sale kept up well, but, of course, with less rush. The Development Company put its large agency force at work on the proposition and the results have been most gratifying, illustrating, indeed, the faith the general public holds in Jacksonville and her pros- pects for the future. The Grand Park sale has covered a wide range of territory, and investments have been made from one end of the country to the other. Breaks all Records. The company announced a general ad-' vance in the price of Grand Park lots to take effect at the close of business last night and as a result yesterday broke all records, mail and telegraph orders being received by the company during the office hours yesterday for over four hundred lots, practically closing out the lots in this suburb. There are probably not over one hundred lots left and they are likely to be gone by tonight, or certainly by the end of this week. The Jacksonville Development Company early began the work of development at Grand Park, opening streets, planting shade trees, etc., and though the sub-divis- ion is practically sold out this work will continue right along at the Development Company's expense. The company, which is one of the largest real estate and invest- ment corporations in the South, is ener- getically behind Grand Park, and it is safe to predict will make of it a most attractive and a most desirable locality. Location is Favorable. This suburb is located perhaps more fa- vorably than any lands around Jackson- ville for factory sites, it having unusually excellent transportation facilities. It is approached, too, by one of the best, if not the best, hard rods in the county, and is less than four miles from the court house. Several interests are already figuring on establishing manufacturing plants at Grand Park and while all of them contem- Rosin for the Week at Savannah. Monday, March 26.-A. B, C.

It has every advantage as such, and the Development Company will give every encouragement to parties interested in establishing industries. In addition to this the Development Company will loan the purchasers of lots to build and in every other way aid and encourage the building up of this suburb. The management of the Jacksonville De- velopment Company deserves the greatest praise for the magnificent success of its Grand Park sale. They demonstrated an enterprise that was bound to win and they have been most liberal in the use of print- ers ink, the greatest factor of the age in successful business. They offered a good proposition, invited the closest possible in- vestigation of it, advertised with a vim that would drive any proposition and at the same time with a frank conservatism that immediately impressed the people with the sincerity of theoffer. Not only did the Development Company use the local papers, but it instituted a cash advertising campaign with the leading Florida week- lies, and the successful weekly newspaper is a power when it begins to work. There were sixteen hundred lots offered in Grand Park. Over fourteen hundred of them were sold when the office of the De- velopment Company closed last night, a record that, perhaps, surpasses anything of the kind ever seen before in this sec- tion.

The bills themselves are modeled on the bl filed by the last named company, the bill on which the first injunction was granted. The points brought out are the same, and the history of the organization of the drainage board and its act is again given. Then eomes the recital of points that make the law itself and all acts under it, null and void, according to the court's de- cision, and the setting up of the plea of violation of the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States. The Land Involved. The prayers for injunction and relief were granted by the court, as was done in the first case instituted, and the tax collec- tore of St. Lucie, Dade, DeSoto, Osceola and Lee counties are enjoined from collect- ing the special drainage tax of 5 cents per acre. The Empire Land Company holds land in eae hof the five counties named, the total acreage being placed in the bill at 748,251.24 acres. The lands of the Mississipp Valley Real- ty Company, aggregating a total of 187,- 201.02 acres, lie in Lee and DeSoto coun- ties. The holdings of the Consolidated Land Company, in St. Lucie, DeSoto, Lee and Osceola, aggregate 806,959.60 acres. Frank Q. Brown as trustee, holds 102,- 933.15 acres in St. Lucie county, and the holdings of the Florida Cypress Company, all in Lee county, aggregate 83,840 acres. As stated above, this makes a total of 1,965,185.01 are, and as the drainage tax amounts to 5 cents an acre, the collection of a sum totalling $98,259.25 has been enjoined. Other Taxes Unpaid. As was the case with the Southern States Land and Timber Company, under the instructions given the tax collectors of the five counties in the new drainage dis- trict, the payment of the regular tax as- Poor Man Unprotected. This point, though it allows citizens of Florida to come into the United States courts and secure relief, does not yet re- lieve the poor man and the small land owner, as the amount involved by the ef- fort to collect the tax must be at least $2,000 before Judge Locke can take juris- diction. As was pointed out in the Times- Union heretofore, the only relief for such property holders is through the State courts. Here appeals are certain to be taken, no matter which way the lower courtss de- cide. From the State Supreme Court the matter can be taken to the United States Supreme Court on a writ of error. But the expense of such proceedings is high, and the poor man, in the majority of cases, can better afford to pay the tax imposed under a law declared unconstitutional, than to bear the greater expense of protecting himself against the determination of Gov- ernor Broward to force through his scheme of draining the Everglades. The suggestion of Major Alexander St. Clair-Abrams, that the small owners com- bine to fight for their rights, is the only other method, apparently, that is open, and reports from Southern Florida indicate that this course will be followed out within the next few days.

The Weekly Industrial Record regrets to chronicle the departure from Jackson- ville and Florida of J. M. DesRoches, per- haps the best known and most efficient * sawmill and lumberman in the State. Mr. DesRoches, who has been prominently con- nected with the lumber industry in Flor- ida for the past twenty years has accepted a position which calls him to Dothan, Ala., for a time at least. There is not a more efficient nor better equipped sawmill man in the entire yel- low pine belt than Mr. DesRoches. He has acquired a knowledge from his connection with every branch of the industry. He has been a valued superintendent of some of the biggest sawmills of the State, a buyer for the largest firms of the coun- try, a broker, and in fact has had dealings along all lines, including stumpage. Those who have engaged his services in Alabama have secured a good man and one who has been of great value to the industry in Florida. Aside from trade there are other qualities possessed by Mr. Des- Roches which will be of great value to him in his new field. As a social member, Mr. Deslloches has long been regarded as a prince. Kind and considerate, sincere and loyal to his friends, he has been noted as one of the very best fellows in the State where he has resided for so many years. It is to be hoped that conditions will so shape themselves as to send Mr. DesRoches back to the State of his choice. PHOSPHATE LAND DEAL. H. G. Stone Made Some Nice Sales in Polk County. Mr. H. G. Stone, general manager of the Florida Realty Company, returned Satur- day from a trip to South Florida, where he put through several important land deals. One tract of phosphate land, con- taining 200 acres, about ten miles south- west of Bartow, was sold to Mr. H. L. Pierce, of Savannah. Mr. Pierce also pur- chased an orange grove of 120 acres for $10,000, in the same locality. While in Polk County Mr. Stone also disposed of one tract of 330 acres of phos- phate land to one of the largest fertilizer manufacturing companies in the United States. He has several other important deals now in prospect. 5he EVERETT HOTEL 325 WEST BAY ST., JACKSONVILLE, FLA. Centrally located, thoroughly repaired and renovated. Newly furnished. European plan. G.

POWELL. The Industrial Record deeply sympa- thizes with Mr. W. C. Powell, president of the Consolidated Naval Stores Company, in the death of his wife. Mrs. Powell was a most estimable lady, a devout Chris- tian, a leader in benevolent and charity work, and exceedingly popular with her large circle of friends. Mrs. Powell died at St. Luke's Hospital in Jacksonville last Saturday evening after a brief illness. Her death came as a great shock, as few knew even of her illness. Mrs. Powell was a member of the First Baptist Church of Jacksonville and her pastor, Dr. Hobson, accompanied the body and the members of the bereaved family to Wake Forest, N. C., her old home, where the interment was made. ENFORCE THE LAW. Our advices from three counties in this State indicate that the naval stores opera- tors are suffering because of the laxity of officials in enforcing the law against those who set fire to the woods. The losses in some instances have been heavy and there is cause for the indigna- tion of some of the operators, who see the laws against petty larceny, toting weap- ons, etc., enforced vigorously in their camps, while people mya with impunity set fire too the woods and do untold dam- age. The Record endorses the statement of one operator to the effect that the au- thorities are giving the turpentine inter- ests the worst end of the deal, and this in the face of the heavy license and other taxes which the operators pay to their county and State. The naval stores in- dustry is eminently entitled to the protec- tion which it seeks. The officials ought to be called to account when they fail to do their duty and give the protection which the laws of Florida guarantee. Railroads Seeking the Gulf for an Outlet, (From Manufacturers' Record.) *'On to the Gulf!" would seem to be the slogan in many railroad enterprises in the South today. Since the United States gave assurance that a Panama canal would be constructed the owners of our existing lines which reach ports on the Gulf of Mex- ico have been stimulated to double their facilities, and the projectors of new rail- ways are now inspired to prepare their plans also with a view toward handling freight destined for a marine route via the interoceanic waterway. The most notable of these new projec- tions is the extension of the Florida East Coast Railway to Key West, now conspicu- ous chiefly because of its daring engineer- ing aln construction which challenge wind and wave, although the future will proba- bly find it more notable in facilities for reaching Havana and the Isthmian canal. The starting of this work, now well tnder way, has been followed by divers announce- ments of schemes to build other lines to points on the Gulf, none, of course, so far seaward as Key West, but each and every one presenting inducements more or less inviting to persuade railroad construction thither. But there are also other transpor- tation plans looking Gulfward and which are not yet carried out that were conceived and incorporated before the extension of the Flagler line began. Thus the advan- tages of the tidewater outlet for railroad freights via the Gulf of Mexico were early realized, and the number of new railroad plans based upon that realization testifies to its value, which will be greater than ever on the completion of the canal. One of the most recent projects for a line of any magnitude to the Gulf is that of the Augusta & Florida Railroad Co., which proposes to connect several existing small railroads in Georgia by building links between them and thus secure a very di- rect and advantageous route to tide on the Gulf. Still others are those of the Birm- ingham. Columbus & St. Andrews Bay Railway and of the Atlanta & Gulf Rail- road. both of which are building lines, one to connect the great iron center of Alaba- ma with the coast and the other to give the capital of Georgia a similar connection. At Pensacola, Fla., there are two or three projects, one for making ac connection from the Central of Georgia and another for building a line from Memphis. In Alabama there are still other plans conceived for building from Birmingham to the Gulf, and in Mississippi several companies have in view southern outlets to the sea. One of the progressive companies in the latter State is the Gulf & Ship Island Railroad, which already has facilities at Gulfport of no small capacity and which is extending its railroad lines. The Mobile, Jackson & Kansas City Railroad, which has lately completed its road northward to Middle- ton, Tenn., is also governed by an enter- prising spirit, and may be expected to build other extensions. Its port, as indi- cated by the name of the company, is Mo- bile. The Mississippi Central is also ex- tending. In louisiana the line of the Louisiana Railway & Navigation Com- pany is fast approaching New Orleans, and upon its completion another railroad there will have attained a Gulf outlet. The Kan- sas City Southern is also said to be reach- ing out quietly to enter the same city, and the construction of a new line, which is recognized as a branch for that company, is already under way. The New Orleans Great Northern is another important pro- ject. Moreover, the Colorado Southern, New Orleans & Pacific Railway, now build- ing between De Quincy. La., and Baton Rouge, is authorized to build a branch di- rectly southwards to a point on the Louisi- ana Gulf coast. Other companies in Ar- kansas as well as in Louisiana which pro- pose to build lines likweise aspire to reach tidewater through the latter State. In Texas it is Port Arthur and Galveston which the new roads mostly endeavor to reach. In fact, the St. Louis, Brownsville & Mexico Railway, or Gulf Coast Route, has just completed its extension to Galves- ton, and there are numerous projects incor- porated which aim to reach tide at some point or other, one of which has in contem- plation. according to recent announce- ments, a line from Winnipeg, Manitoba, to the Texas coast. It goes without saying that not a few of the many incorporation which have been made will never carry out in their en- tirety all the plans declared in their char- ters, but sufficient will be fulfilled to large- ly increase railroad transportation facili- ties between the interior of the country and the Gulf ports, the business of which has increased so wonderfully within the last ten years and which continues to grow with surprising rapidity. Southeastern Stockgrowers Meet in Third Annual Convention. The Southeastern Stock Growers' Asso- ciation convened at the court house in Kis- simmee Wednesday, and while the number of delegates was not as large as was hoped for, yet the interest taken by those who were in attendance shows that great good is coming out of the efforts of the asso- ciation. It was 10:30 a. m., when the president called the meeting to order and owing to the unavoidable absence of Senator Car- son, Prof. W. B. Hinter'dal the pleasure of welcoming the delegates to the city, to which Captain Rose responded. Capt. Rose also read a paper prepared by Dr. C. F. Dawson, "What the Florida Agricultural College is Doing for the Stock Grower." President Gaitskill then made his address, after which the convention ad- journed till after dinner. At 2:30 p. m.. the convention was called to order and a paper prepared by Weather Bureau Director Mitchell on "How Cli- MAY MEAN ABANDONMENT. Advices from Tallahassee received this week indicate that Governor Broward and his Board of Drainage Commissioners may not continue their efforts to collect the drainage tax in view of the recent decis- ion of Judge Locke in granting injunctions against the collection of this tax to parties who reside in this State. This last decision practically stops all matic Conditions Affect the Stock Grow- er," was read. F. P. Conroy of Jacksonville, then made an address on "The Packer and Stock Grower," and was followed by Gov. N. B. Broward on "Comparative Returns per Acre from Crops Produced in Florida and other States, Relative to Expense." A general exchange of opinions as to range conditions and observations of the effect of good blood on the range was in- dulged in by a number of delegates, led by the Secretary pro tem, W. A. Lightsey, H. J. Moody, J. M. Lee, J. F. Obery. R. Donegan and Vice-President Murphy. Z. C. Chambliss, of Ocala, then read a paper on "Lessons and Conclusions from a Visit to the Last International Stock Show in Chicago," and was followed by Wm. Edwards, of Plymouth, on a "Good Hog." This ended the regular program. Mr. Conroy proposed that the old officers he unanimously re-elected and it was so or- dered. operations so far as the raising of funds are concerned. Governor Broward is prac- tically powerless, but is pushing the cam- paign vigorously along other lines. A de- termined effort is to be made to secure a legislature which may be depended upon to push the work. While we grant the fact that the Gov- ernor can do a great deal in the way of in- fluencing legislation, we doubt if he can succeed in pushing this work further. In he light of subsequent events and decis- ons of the court, mature study and ex- ended discussion of the questions involved n this scheme, tlhe people of the State see he folly of the plan to attempt to drain he great Florida swamp. It really looks as though the scheme rill have to he abandoned. k HEAVY ADVANCE IN BUSINESS RE- PORTED BY MEMBERS. t Is Enough to Keep the Mills Busy for the Next Sixty Days-Car Shortage Re- ported to Be Still Bad by the Delegates Present. The Georgia Interstate Sawmill Asso- iation met yesterday afternoon and last night at Valdosta, Ga., with the largest attendance that the association has had in nany months. The members reported the business already booked was sufficient to *arry them thirty to ninty days, which would average at least sixty days if the nills do not take another order in that ime. The demand was shown to be urgent, and starting at an advance of $2 to $5 above the list prices. The price committee, however, notwithstanding this condition of affairs. recommended that the prices be not advanced, but that the present list be reaffirmed on coastwise and interior trade. This action took the form of a motion, and was unanimously adopted by a rising vote. The president was instructed to ap- point delegates from this association to the annual meeting of the National Lumber Manufacturers' Association, at St. Louis, MIay 8th and 9th. The car shortage was reported as bad as ever. The export trade on the coast is improving very perceptibly. The ear standard question is in the hands of attor- neys, and is being pushed. Florida rates and demurrage were touched upon, but nothing was done. Presi- dent Tift was not present, and Vice Presi- dent I. B. Conrad, of Florida, presided. The Hoo Hoos had a great parade last night, after which they had a concatna- tion and banquet. There were twenty-five captive kittens led through the streets in chains, and all were put through the mys- teries of the order afterwards. CHINESE EMPLOYED ON NAVAL STORES. With the introduction of imported labor into Florida, C. W. Chase, the big naval stores operator of Gainesville, Fla., who owns several large enterprises of this kind in Alachua county and other sections, hopes to solve the labor problem as far as the naval stores business is concerned. Mr. Chase says that while the naval stores interests have been one of the lead- ing industries in Florida for the past few years, the operators have experienced con- siderable difficulty in securing help. Not- withstanding that good wages have been paid, and the employee was almost the mas- ter of the men who gave him work, the ne- gro, realizing his importance in the making of turpentine, has been disposed to do al- most as he pleased, with the result that he exercised his own ideas as to when and where he should work. This condition of affairs made him independent, and as a rule he has given the operator no end of trouble and inconvenience, at quite a finan- cial loss. Mr. Chase says that while he was willing to submit to some consideration of the negro, went about the matter to secure more reliable help. He has imported from Portland. Oregon. about sixty Chinamen. Mr. Chase's agent or representative ex- plained to the Chinamen that nature of the work. and induced them to come. A priv- ate Pullman car was secured. and in this the party left Portland in first-class con- dition, and after nine days' travel arrived safely at Paradise Saturday night. They appeared well pleased, and have gone to work with a willingness. It is the purpose of the management to work the men in the woods, as well as in all other places inci- dent to the manufacture of turpentine, and it is believed they will make good, compe- tent. and faithful employes. This group comprises some very intelli- gent people. who speak English fluently, and are strictly Americanized. A few of them were in the city Monday, making purchases, and made quite a favorable im- pression on those whom they met.

This transaction will probably come in the nature of a surprise to many, as the firm of Dutton & Co., cotton department, has been established for more than a third of a century, and has always enjoyed the reputation of being the largest buyers and ginners in Florida of Sea Island cotton. The bill of sale covers twenty gins, to- gether with the building, etc., and all other property connected with the establishment which is located at the junction of the Seaboard Air Line and Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. Consideration not learned. In speaking of the matter Saturday Hon. W. G. Robinson, for years manager of the cotton department of Dutton & Co., and one of the best posted men on Sea Island cotton in the South, stated that it was the purpose of his firm to retire from the ginning business only. It is not learned just what action the new owner of this industry, Mr. Rivers, will take, but inasmuch as Gainesville is a large cotton center, it is natural to sup- pose that he will continue the same here. The plant employs a large number of hands, principally women and children, during the season. A Typewriter Story. A short time ago the idea was conceived by a few prominent men that the day of the high-priced typewriter was a thing of the past and like the bicycle met its Waterloo when the Postal Typewriter Co. put out a $25.00 machine complete in ev- ery detail, universal keyboard, with 87 characters, the writing in sight all the time; powerful manifolder and weighs 10%i pounds.

An important industrial undertaking has recently been launched at Nashville, Tenn., by the temporary organization of the In- terstate Phosphate Co., whose purpose it is to establish a large fertilizer plant for the manufacture of acid phosphate and fertilizers of all kinds. The present capital of the company is $30,000, to be largely in- creased upon complete organization, which will probably be effected within a few weeks, when application will be made for a charter of incorporation. Options have been secured on two sites, one of which will be purchased for the location of the plant and its erection begun when this detail has been determined. A frame build- ing 100x180 feet will be constructed and equipped to have ann annual capacity of from 25,000 to 30,000 tons. Plans for the building are already in the hands of the contractor. Officers of the company have been elected as follows: Albert Strick- land of Cartersville, Ga., president; T. W. Pratt, of Huntsville, Ala., vice-president, and William D. Rhea, of Nashville, secre- tary and treasurer and general manager. Messrs. Rhea and Pratt will form the ex- ecutive committee. There is also a board of directors having seven members from five States. Retail Lumber Dealers. The Mississippi-Louisiana Retail Lum- ber Dealers' Association met at Jackson, Miss., on Tuesday of last week in a two- day session, the occasion being its regular semi-annual convention. Several matters of more or less interest were considered, among them the advance in prices, which has recently been ordered by wholesale dealers and manufacturers. President B. A. Tucker of Senatobia. Miss., and Secre- tary W. G. Harlow of Yazoo City were both in attendance. FLORIDA CEMENT. Though Florida is largely underlain by beds of limestone of Tertiary and recent age, these are covered over great areas by later deposits of sand and gravel. Owing partly to this, and more largely to the lack of local fuel deposits and cement mar- kets, no attempt has ever been made to manufacture Portland cement in the State. Should commercial conditions ever change so as to render a local cement industry possible there will probably be little diffi- culty in locating deposits ot limestone suit- able for use as Portland cemene material, for the St. Stephens limestone, which is so promising a source of cement material in Alabama, covers a large area in North- ern Florida. while other limestones of equal value as cement materials outcrop else- where in the State. FLAGLER HAS A CANNERY. He Will Run the Factory at Delray, Fla, as His Personal Property. The best news that has ever reached Delray, Fla.. pertaining to the interest of the people and general welfare of the town is the announcement that Mr. H. M. Flag- ler has decided to take charge of the can- ning factory there and run it as his per- sonal property for a term of five years. This means five years of success and pros- perity for the farmers and people of Del- ray and Dade county. It is stated that the factory is to be considerably enlarged at once, so that it can take care of the present crops of pine- apples and tomatoes. It is reported also that the company has already received orders for 8,000 crates of canned pineapples from the coming crop. This is more than the entire output of the factory lant season. CYPRESS TANKS Are Best by Every Test Cypress withstands the effects of heat and moisture Better than any other wood, shrinks and swells less than other woods, is impervious to acids, bo:ds paint well and lasts for ages without decaying. Located as we are, right in the great cypress forests, we are able to secure the best selection of the wood and at very low prices. We have been building tanks for more than a quarter of a century and bo dly assert that no tanks are better built or will last longer. Send for catalog and prices. G. M.
