crops that will yield a quick re.
turn; have some chicketls. and, as
sooh as you can, add a few milk

way most of the farmers who start
in around here do,” said A. Q.
WaiMiet of Chnluota. Florida, r*.
cently, when I asked him what he
would do if he were a tenderfoot
farmer going to that state.
Ts I came into take up a tract,
l would not try to fartn it aU at
onee. I would buy mixed types
of land some of It suitable for
trucking and some for citrus
farming. Ridge land is favored
here for citrus fruit and it re-

vestment Hammock land Is adapt
ed to trucking. While my citrus
orchard was coming into nearing,
I would raise garden track. Garden
truck is the first crop that the new
farmer sets out He can start
growing right away anad make his
(arm almost self-supporting from
the start As be goes ahead he
feds out his way. which is necee
sary.'especially for those who are
not familiar with the sinfr-tropical
conditions of Florida.
“in trucking he can plant vege
tables. Irish potatoes, sweet pota
toes. watermelon, canteloupe, let
tuce. cucumbers, beans, celery, and
other crops. They will yield him
an early return and help carry the
farm while the citrus fifuit is com
ing into bearing. He also can re
duce his initial investment by
clearing his land as he goes along.
The first year he may plant only
an acre in truck. The second year
he has cleared additional land and
plants two acres in garden truck,
and each year as he goes along he
can increase the area under culti- '
vation until, finally, Ms entire
tract has been cleared and brought
Into production.
“Since the automobile became

come right tfi the citrus grower’s
orchard. For the packet* will buy
the fruit on the tree, either by the]'
box or by the crop. They will i

transport it to the packing house, i
This year growers in this section i
teceived $2.00 a box for their or- i
»nges. On Gaston Jacobs’ ranch,
t single tree yielded 81 or 82 1
boxes, but the average grove does I
not produce over ten or twelve i
boxes to the tree. 1
“A four acre grove of 800 trees 1
here has earned Gaston Jacobs a i
net profit of $1,310 annually for 1
the four years in which records ;
were kept. This is after deducting i
$140.00 annually for fertilizer and
$50.00 annually for other costs. In i
1925 a fine crop with good prices 1
yielded 2,000 boxes of fruit on this
ranch which brought $2.00 per box. 1
According to the best authorities in !
this region, orange growers can i
make money provided they receive i
over 75 eeftts per box per year on i

EARLY OPENING OF THE
AUTO TOURIST SEASON
Big Demand for Routings Has De
pleted the Map Supply.
Greensboro. May 19.—Opening of
the tourist season earlier than usual
and an unprecedented demand for
routings north lias resulted in deple
tion of map stocks, according to Cole
man W. Roberts, vice president of
the Carolina Motor Club. The con
dition. general throughout the state,
is particularly keenly felt at head
quarters here and at the Charlotte,
Raleigh and Asheville offices.
North Carolina maps published an
nually by the state highway depart
ment will be off the press June Ist.
The largest supply of Carolina Motor
Club tour books ever prepared in a
single year by Darden Allen, official
pathfinder of the club, has been ex
hausted and additional orders have
been placed. Trans-continental maps
published by the American Automo
bile Association have been in great
demand, indicating that travel this
year is wider in scope and that mo
torists are preparing for business and
pleasure jaunts earlier than usual.
Inauguration of a map depart
ment, which publishes its own strip
maps is announced by Mr. Roberts as
one method adopted to cope with the
situation and in line with the clubs’
expansion program and policy. C. T.
Matthews, assistant manager of the
club, is personally preparing the strip
maps. To date maps have been
printed showing maiu routes north
from Ceutral Carolina: Route 10
from the mountains to the coast and
Route 20 from the coast to moun
tain*.
Only county seats are shown on
the strip maps with the distance be
tween cadi town indicated. A com
plete log, showing all towns and ac
curate mileage, is printed bet©w. The
strip map, absolutely accurate and
drawn to seale, shows road condi
tion* and is of a convenient sixe.
Oftentimes it eliminate use of sepa
rate maps of North Carolina, Vir
ginia. Maryland and the District of
Columbia. Mr. Matthews ia prepar
ing a strip map and tong from Ashe
ville, N. C„ to Knoxville, Tenn.
Reports from respective Offices of
the club indicate that southbound
traffic is practically nil while the num
ber of northbound tourists is mount
ing daily.
A soldier went to his colonel and
asked for leave to go home to help
his wife with her spring cleaning.
“I (tenet like to refuse you,” said the
colonel, ‘‘but I’ve just received a let

are no uSe around the hops*.”
The'soldier saluted land turned to
go. At ;the door he stop pad, turned
and remarked: “CoJonei, there sre two
persons In this remtgment who handle
the truth loosely, and I’m one of
them. I'm not married.”

amount to approximately 76 cents
per box of oranges a£ they are
sold from the tree, and prices re

“Tangerines brought $4.00 a box
this year in this section. A tan
gerine tree will bear pretty nearly
as well as an orange tree, but the
fruit always brings a hitter price
than oranges. When people are
passing a fruit stand they will buy
tangerines in preference to or
anges, because the skin is loose
and it can be peeled off by hand.
But this condition will gradually
change with the growing of more
tangerines.

GYP MOTORING SCHEMES.
Wade Says Those Victimized By
Them Ought to Hare Guardians.
Raleigh. N.. C., May 19.—“Persous

a Winston-Salem man who said he
had paid out S2OO in a gct-rich

Wade was told of the proiKssition
after motor attaches failed to locate
officials charged with enforcing the
state "Blue Sky” Statutes.
The specific scheme that drew the
significant comment from the state
official is only one of several that
have bobed up with the advent of
spring and the beginning of the sum
mer touring season Several otber
qdestiorfable propositions have been
reported to the Carolina Motor club
recently and some have been forced
to ceaqe operation in this state.

motor organisation, which is the offi
cial representatives of the umcricau
Automobile association in North
Oarolint, has aided iu squelching 39
