This is an age of publicity. If a great bumseas enterprise desires to become a favorite with the common people it makes every effort within its power to place before its patrons and constituents the most minute details of its methods and practices in the daily transaction of the business that must be handled in such way as to produce the best results possi- ble with the least possible expense for its shareholders. All large concerns of com- mereial nature now owned by a multi- tude of shareholders, and it is necessary and essential to the welfare and success of the enterprise, that it not only should give the details of handling and manner of conducting its business to its share- holders, but to its clients and patrons as well. Olbfdence begets confidence, while oa the other hand diffidence is usually the lub that drives the patron across the way to en energetic competitor. It has been the policy of the Jackson- ville Development Company, from the day of Its organization, to take its sharehold- er and patrons into its' eonfidene, as it realized that by such actions everything was to be gained and nothing lost by the jealousy of less far-seeing competitors. This plan has worked admirably and as a result the company now numbers its clients by the thousands. This company handles property on the basis of purchasing it outright, placing all the money necessary in improvements in the property and selling it to its patrons ea practically any kind of terms they may As an illustration of the company's methods of doing business we recall the great sale it put on, Murray Hill Heights Addition, of 50 acres lying in the sub- urbs of this city. The tract was purchased outright and subdivided into 2,000 lots, 100,000 being apent in improvements before a single lot was offered for sale. Hard roads were built, boulevards were laid out, ample drainage installed, lands were surveyed and platted, each lot staked and all street earners staked and named, each street being opened and graded While all this was goig on a selling force was being organized, one general agent having the management of the sell- ing department for each specfi property. Twenty agents were made busy and the lots were sold on a basis of 5.00 cash at time of sale and payments of $2.00 without interest or taxes until final pay- ment was made. When a lot is sold the purchaser signs an application which goes to the law de- partmet for investigation and approval (it being distinctly understood that no sale are to be made to undesrable par- tisi, every preation being taken to pre- vat them from smakiag in in any man- ner.) If the purchaser comes up to the exactions of the company as to character and reputation a bond for title is issued in duplicate, the application becoming a part of the instrument, all of which goes to the chief of the Accounting Depart- ment and a specific account opened against the purchaser on the Murray Hill Heights property ledger, he being charged in full with the amount of the purchase and credited with first and all subsequent payments. When the pay- ments are all made the bond for title is called in by the Law Department and a in departments, each department being under the direct supervision of an experi- enced manager. The departments are the Timber and Farm Land Department, the Subdivision Department, City Sales De- partment, Home Builders' Department, Contract Department, Mail Order Depart- ment and Department of Publicity. In addition to the City Sales Depart- ment the company has correspondents and brokerage connections in all the prin- cipal centers of population in the United States and local agents in all the coun- ties of Florida. warranty deed, accompanied by a full ab- The company was organized in 1895 stract of title, is issued to the purchaser with a capital of $250,000 which was re- and the account is closed. cently increased to one-half million dol- The loose leaf ledger system is used, lars.

While the area planted in eowpeas has much increased during the past few years, this crop has not yet attaind the popu- larity that is deserves. Aside from its feeding value, its value as a fertilizer or soil renovator is of no small importance. The cowpea belong to the plants known as legumes, which have the power to ex- tract nitrogen from the atmosphere and may deposit it in the soil. In ttid way they build up and improve the soil pon which they grow (See Press Bulletin ). It has been estimated that a good crop of cowpeas plowed under a fertilizer adds as much ammonia to the soil as an appli- cation of 1,000 to 1,200 pounds of cottom- seed meal per acre; or, if the vines an harvested as hay, and only the stubMa and roots left as fertilizer, they will add an amount of ammonia equal to an appli- cation of 300 to 400 rounds of cottonseed meal per acre. Nearly one-third of the ammonia of the entir- crop is found in the stubble and roots; the parts whish ae left in the la when the hay is harvest- ed. Planting. The cowpea needs much hot weather to mature well, an, hence, should be planted during the spring or early som- mer. Very little will be gained by early planting, that s, planting before May 1, unless the peas are wanted for table im. Seed sown in May will give a larger yield of forage, but fewer pods than seed sown in the latter part of Tlme or early in July. That is, early planting tends to- ward a heavy growth of vines and a small amount of seed, while later planting se cures a heavy yield of seed with a small- er percentage of vines. Good results are often obtained by sowing the cowpeas along with some other spring or summer crop; such as sorghum, or millet. This improves the quality of such hay by sup- plying the protein (muscle mad tissue- producing material) in which the hay would otherwise be deficient. When mixed with some other crop the hay ean be more easily cured, sines the sorghum or millet prevents the pea vines from matting together loosely. The seed may be sowu in drills two or three feet apart, or broadcast. If sown in drills, cultivation ca, be praetieed which will usually increir the yisd. Before the sowing the groun-I should be tahr- oughly plowed and well harrowed, so as to get the seed be-i in as good tilth as possible.

Practically all varieties of cowplas are subject to root-knot, which is one serious drawback to the growing of cowpeas in the cotton belt of the State. Fortunate ly the Iron cowpea has proved itself strongly resistant to root-knot and should be used when this crop is to be followed by cotton. State papers please copy. TO THE NAVAL STORES MEN OF FLORIDA. I would invite your attention to some of the various legislation which was intro- duced in the Florida House of Represen- tatives during the seesion of 1903. A bill was introduced with a view of securing revenue out of the naval stores business. The argument was presented that by fur- quired -%L %%SM0 Industrial Record's Buyers' Directory AXXC3(XC XXXWfXXX^T ACCOUNTANTS. T. G. Hutehiaeon, Jacksonville, Fla. Walter Mueklow, Jacksonville, Fla.

The naval stores people would not pay it; that it would come out of the purchasers of these supplies. This bill was killed. I made a speech in opposition to it. My recollection is that I am the only me who made such a speech. There may have been others. There was a committee of men, engaged in the naval stores business, at Tallahas- see during the session of the legislature. Owing to my record, being friendly to their interests, I was requested to intro- dues and take charge of the following -": House Bill No. 547, a Bill to be entitled an Act to Prevent and Prohibit the Adulteration of Spirits of Turpentine and Naval Stores, etc." I do not take any credit for simply doing my duty. I think, however, it might be well or some of you gentlemen to know who has been your friend in the legislature. As you know, I am a can- didate for Governor of Florida. Any as- sistance you can give me will be highly appreciated. I have the honor of being, Very respectfully yours, ALBERT W. GILCHRIST, Candidate for Governor of Florida. JEWELERS. R J. lJ.

PRO ER I TT'S RETUR. The Natioal Prosperity Association of St. Lois has been organized in the right town sad bears the right name. At the enter of one of the most productive re- giouns of the world, with its financial in- stitutions sound to the core, with more than twenty millions of the sturdiest peo- ple -O the face of the earth creating wealth by the billion within easy reach of ts doors, St. Louis has not been able to see during the last seven or eight months why there should be any recession of pros- perity at all. St. Iouis has had substantial reasons for Its Arm confidence that the trouble which began in Wall street last summer could not last. It has seen clearly that all the conditions of commerce, Industry and fi- 1as*i iS this country are fundamentally sound. financial conditions are sounder now than they were a year ago, since the Wall street furry resulted in squeezing out such water as there was in inflated securities. Conditions are better than they were last -,-all, since the banks are full of money and conmdence in their ability to pay every dollar on demand is fully restored. There was never any real lack of conadence in the banks of St. Louis on the part of those who were informed of their real condition. The clear gain of the present i is that the timidity of the small depositor has disappeared. The firm confidence of St. Louis in a strong and early revival of trade and in- dustry is based upon two important eco- t nomie facts. One is that in their caution manufacturers and merchants have let i their stocks run down to.a level at which the demands of 80,000,000 of people must force their replenishment before the pres- ent season is far advanced. The other is that there is every pros- pect for the most abundant crops of wheat, cotton and corn that the country has ever known. The moving of these crops will make rich earnings for the railroads. It will keep the pay car going and give em- ployment to many thousands of working men The proceeds of these crops, going into the pockets of farmers and farm laborers, will make the factories busy, for men well supplied with money will have what they want. It is in all sincerity that St. Louis preaches the gospel of Good Cheer, and bids the rest of the country look for the sunshine that has been obscured only by an artificial smoke. That brilliant economist, Walter Bage- hot, has told us how a crop failure or other misfortune befalling any element or class of a great population easily brings hard times upon all. Conversely an awak- ening of prosperity among one class or element brings back good times to all. St. St. Louis sees the certainty of good times for the vast agricultural and industrial in- terests by which it is surrounded. It as- sures other cities that its confidence in the future of the year is not misplaced. Let us take up the cry of prosperity that is made in St. Louis and let it echo and re-echo throughout the length and breadth of this great country. Florida was perhaps less affected by the Wall Street flurry and its consequences than any other State; but, unfortunately, there are too many business ghouls ready to play upon the misfortunes of others and these people have tried to create a hard times senti- ment for personal aggrandizement. Let us all preach the gospel of Good Cheer. Protection of National Forests. (From American Industries.) The first duty of the Forest Service is to protect the national forests. These forests are mainly virgin in the sense that but little of their area has been cut over. They are not, however, virgin in the sense of being fully stocked with timber. A fully established forest which has never been interfered with does not gain. It makes no more wood by growth than it loses by decay. Most of the for- ested area of the West, however, has been' severely interfered with for many years, chiefly by fire. Fires caused much damage even before white men entered the country. They have caused much more since. The most serious part of the damage caused by the ordinary forest added the heavy damage caused in the fire is that done to the young growth, from the tiny seedlings in their first year up. To this damage by fire must be past by the overgrazing of stock, and especially of sheep. With the checking of these and other abuses through administration by the government, the quantity of timber on the National Forests would be adding very materially to its quantity each year that fires are kept out. It may be said in passing that the fire loss on these for- ests is now reduced almost to a negligi- ble figure. If the entire cost of the forest administration for the last fiscal year were charged to the account of fire pro- tection, it would be equivalent to an in- surance charge of something like $2 per i$,00oo During the calendar year 1907 the tim bered area of National Forest land burn- I ed over was about two one-hundredths of one per cent of the total area of National Forests, and considerably less than one one-hundredths of one per cent of the standing timber destroyed. In other words, looking at the matter from a strictly business standpoint, the govern- ment may well feel that it did not do badly last year with its forest property even though its per acre expenditures and receipts were very low, since the forests carried themselves, and in so doing paid for a protection of the property which, if regarded as insurance, was worth at the ordinary insurance rate of city prop- erty more than the -gross expenditures of the government upon its forests. And id addition to this valuable consideration obtained without expense, the government has gained also by the decided improve- ment of the forests which protection from fires and other causes of injury has brought. TIMBER OWWIRS ORGANIZE TO FIGHT FIRE. One of the most important economic movements of the day about which the general public has yet learned little is the concerted action of owners of timber in different parts of the country in or- ganizing associations to protect their holdings from fire. In the Pacific North- west, the Washington Forest Fire Asso- ciation has just elected officers at Seat- tle and begun work for the year with 3,000,000 acres under its care. 'The plans include a system of patrol by rangers re- sembling the work done by the United States Forest Service in guarding against and extinguishing fires. Organizations of similar kind and for a like purpose are at work in Oregon and Idaho. In the latter State, a portion of the expense is borne by taxation and paid from the State treasury. A western rail- road company which holds large tracts of timber has taken steps to guard its prop- erty from fire, and during the short time that its plans have been in operation, it has met with most encouraging success. Similar work is being done on the other side of the continent. Forest owners in Maine have gone to work in the same sys- tematic way to control the forests' great enemy, fire. Like organizations are found in other parts of the country, showing how fully it is now realized that protec- tion against fire is of the greatest impor- tance. It is safe to say that fires in this coun- try have destroyed more timber than lum- bermen have cut. When timber was abun- dant, the waste passed almost unnoticed, but now that a scarcity is at hand and an actual wood famine threatens in the neat" future, the owners of forest lands are waking up and taking action to ~ave what is left. THE "GET-TOGBTHBE MOVEMENT." (From "The 'Tadesman.") It is exceedingly gratifying to note the increasing tendency among the cities of the South to foster and develop a spirit of "getting together" for the advancement of their respective localities. This is what we have been urging for many months past and this is what we would urge now with all the earnestness and seriousness at our command, for this is the keynote not only of future progress, but for hold- ing what we have already gained. The spirit of unrest is abroad in the THE STUART-mBMSTEIN CO. land. This spirit is disintegrating in ts character aad tedemcies and will row, a all evil nfluences do, nless promptly dis- cerned and as promptly counteracted Such a spirit has no place in the soil of the South, but it will row here ust as vigorously an just viciously unles there are efforts to meat and destroy t. This is one strong reason for a "get-to- gether" movement at this time and of it- self would be sufolent to inaugurate and sustain such a movement eerywhee, but this is by no means the only reason or even the strongest a to the aned and benefits that pertain to it. There has been permitted to grow up a feeling of antagonism between the busi- ness and political factors of the Soth and these elements have been working at such eross-purposes as have brought de- velopment along certain lines, notably ral- road coMstrutian and nporation im- provement, almost to the point of a stad- still, and this condition needs correting in the interests of the Soath. Thre are other fields of improvement and devdp- ment that ar vital to the future of this section, especially those In the matter of educational advancement and agricultural improvement. The South can feed and clothe the civilized world from its own re- sources and products and yet it is not do- ing this for its own tisens. From these considerations, aside from others that hang on a higher civilization, there is need for a general movement of "getting together"--evral cities in the South have held public meetings with no other objects in view and the results in every instance have proven their wisdom. These meetings have been called by loeal commercial or business bodies, ad pro- grams were arranged and carried out that bore on local conditions, loe advantages and local needs in various lines. From these meetings stronger organiza- tions have developed, greater local pride aroused and a higher sense of individual THE cLSnTNiS Id 4 n ilI~re wbiikR.l S.E AGENTS "M -ri EATI, "ff. se"A" -E AN MANX WE OPLEAW am SPCOLTV FTHE WErELY uwstarlftAL RBOOBD. t Have You a Jewelery Store in Your Home?

The Gospel of Good Cheer. By I. C. ma us, Chairman lo the Eec- ative Cemmittee tate National Prosperity Asseiation at St. Loui. Wb have formed a business organization to be called the National Prosperity Asso- dation of St. Louis-having for its object the encouragement of a return of prosper- ity sooner than might otherwise occur without help, or without some active ef- forts on the part of the business men. We believe that present conditions are ex- emedingly favorable to this. The body-- emercal-- s been very ill, and in aI ee has had typhoid fever, but now the fever has entirely left-the disease is out, ad the patient only remains sick and weak, so that permanent recovery is only a matter of time. How to quicken that resvery in a healthy manner is the prob- lm we are undertaking, and we believe in the power of ---wagea-et-by showing to the world at large that conditions are fodametally sound and healthy, and that nothing now exists but a lack of esldemee to restore us to a full measure of prosperity such as existed a year ago. We are making an effort, through the press and through other business assoia- tions, and through the traveling salesmen, to eeourage the people to e the sunshine that s clearly in the pathway, and to be- Heve that things are very much better than most people think they are, and that with the present crop prospects soon to be realized, if nothing unforeseen occurs in the immediate future, it is only a question of a very short time until the dinner pails will again be full and the unemployed will again be employed at fair wages, and that there will be no reduction in wages of those already employed. We believe there i a great change of sentiment with the Intelligent people of the United States, sad that it is increasing very rapidly. It therefore see to us a most propitious time to do what we can to encourage a quick return of prosperity, to the great beefit of the laboring man and to the beneft of all business interests. On all sides we find expressions of fav- orable sentiments to the effect that fur- ther legislation against railroads and large corporations shall eease, that the business interests of this country shall be given a rest and that the departments of justis may be allowed to proceed with their work in a quiet manner-which, of course, is greatly to be desired. It is ab- solutely essential to the welfare of this' country that the railroads should again prosper, because more than one and a half million men are in the employ of the rail- roads today, and as many more are de- pendent upon their revenue from railroad investments; hence, it is deemed almost impossible that we should return to a full measure of prosperity excepting the rail- roads participate in the same. With the full cooperation of the press of the United States-which we hope to have-and with the united efforts of the business associations of all the large cities, we feel confident of our ability to aceel- erate the speed of returning prosperity to a great degree. It is hardly necessary to say that everybody would like to have wages maintained at the highest figure, and without a cut. There is no doubt as to the wisdom of this course. We are most heartily in favor of it and are work- ing to that end-giving our time and our money to accentuate better conditions and returning prosperity. We hope and expect to have the cooperation of manu- facturers, merchants, bankers, railroads and the labor element-in fact, every bus- iness interest of the United States. We ask every business man-and, in fact, ev- ery commercial man and house in this country-to lend us their aid-to work with us--to join hands in the gospel of and scatter seeds of sunshine in the paths of all whom they meet. If they are pessi- mists, we want them to become optimists; if they are optimists, we want them to in- crease their iptimism; we want them to crease their optimism; we want them to be cheerful in their manner and in their conversations -in their predictions -in their hopes and aspirations.

STHE WEEKLY INDUSTRIAL RECORD. 9 Capital $200,000 HUTCHINSON SHOE COMPANY VICTOR SHOES AND HATS Wholesale -0 Jacksonville, Fla' (Coatinued from page 7 ) the basis of our prosperity comes from the soil, and the products of the soil have never had greater value than at present. The outlook for crops is marvelously prom- isag. To illustrate-the winter wheat crop-which is the first one of import- amce that comes to our notice-is better than ever before in the history of this country. Kansas reports a condition of 15 on winter wheat-something hereto- fore unknown. When the lumber inter- est shut down, and the railroads laid off a lot of their employes, a large proportion of them went immediately to the farm- ers, or planters, so that these toilers of the soil have, for the first time in many years, had enough labor to put in a full or large crop-perhaps a larger crop than ever before, and the planting is still going on. With a larger planting than has ev- er gone into the ground, and with favora- ble weather, it seems reasonable to sup- '< pose that we may have most excellent I. crops this year-it looks exceedingly probable. Therefore, everything which is the base of our prosperity is right-all that is necessary now is to restore con- fidence-so that the wheels of commerce begin to move again with the same rapid- ity that they did a year or two ago, whn we were at the height of our prosperity, and from which we went in a wonderfully I short time to a very low stage of depres- sion and hard times. We ask the co-operation of everybody J in the United States in this movement- which we think has great merit, and which has great possibilities. Mc KOY PATENT ^l Turpentine Cup.
