He has reorganized the service from 48 States fo z2 Fed- eral districts, and, while President Coolidge is regretting the fact that the States do not take a livelier in- terest in their own well-being and re- lieve the Federal Government of much of its burden, Gen. Andrews has reached the conclusion that he faces a fact rather than a theory and he is going to virtually ignore the States and State lines in building up his enforcement army. Looks to Army First. Gen. Andrews believes that a grad- uate of Annapolis can command an Army unit ashore as well as on a battleship or a destrover afloat. Nat- urally, he will first of ail look to the Army for. his new district command- |ers. for he is an Army man himself. But graduates of Annapolis will be considered on very nearly an equal footing. The plan is to use Annapo- lis and West Point men who have been retired for minor disabilities and who are recelving less than $2,500 a yvear in retired pay from the Gov- ernment. These men will be eligible for appointment, and Gen. Andrews Is endeavoring to get authority to pay them up to or above the rated pay of rear admirals and brigadler or major generals. The brave work being done by Gen Smedlev Butler of the fighting ma- rines, as director_of public safety in Philadelphia - eSpecially his war against = the bootleggers and the saloons—has attracted the attention of Gen. Andrews, and he wants in effect to “Butlerize” the prohibition service from end to end. There always has been a lot of talk around Washington of taking the pro- hibition service out of politics. Gen. Andrews is taking the talk literally. He believes the best way to proceed in by militarization. The “dry navy” 4and its recent campaign against “Rum Row" impressed Gen. Andraws with the value of military discipline and procedure. The “navy” Is a military institution from first te last—a branch, or almost the entirety, of the United States Coast Guard service. Its officers are permanently in the service. Its i‘men” are enlisted and are subject to courts-martial, just as men are in the Army and the Navy. Gen. Andrews wants a land “army” as close to the “‘dry navy” as it is sible to get. He knows he can get loyalty and service from West Point and Annapolis officers. The test will come in the absence of “enlisted men’ subject to the iron discipline of the officers. Maybe, before long the prohibition army will be on an enlistment basis with “permanent” work for all con- cerned. R 8% Hindenburg Receives Gilbert. BERLIN, July 1 (®.—S.

Gentlemen— The following are the officers of the Durham Tropical Land Corporation— OHN CRANOR. 133 Rich Avenue. DeLand, Florida, writes that about ten years ago he bought 30 acres of land from a company composed of the same people now comprising the Durham Tropical Land Corporation, his purchase being located along State Highway No. 3 (which traverses SUN GARDEN FARMS). Mr. Cranor tells us he paid $10 to $15 an acre for this tract, and he now refuses to eell it for the current values of $1.500 to $2,000 per acre!

Durham Tropical Land Co., April 9th, 1925. St. Petersburg, Fla. Gentlemen— ‘We learn from authentic authority that your company has made plans to put on the market your very splendid tract of land in Clay and Putnam Counties known as Sun Garden Farms, and that you contemplate development at once. This 60,000 acres is regarded locally as one of the finest tracts in the State, and just at this time Clay County presents a more golden opportunity than any other county in the State of Florida. The land here is exceptionally fertile, and, on account of the proximity to Jacksonville and the accessibility to Northern markets, we have the largest and best agricultural market outlet in the State. ‘We extend a hearty welcome to your purchasers from the Cham. ber of Commerce and stand ready to assist them in any way we can. Cordially yours, (Signed) Mrs. P. H. Goucher, Acting Secretary. @ E. V. PRIEST, Assessor of Taxes, Clay County. Durham Tropical Land Co., Green Cove Springs, Florida. St. Petersburg, Fla. April Tth, 1925. Gentlemen— I am very glad to learn that you are going to subdivide and put on the market your 60,000 acres of land near here, known as the Sun Garden Farms.” I have been over practically this entire tract many times, and I do not know of any tract of land of the same size that equals it as to quality of the soil, drainage and other factors which go to make good farms, and I know of only one smaller tract that uals it. o This community is being so rapidly developed to different kinds of truck, fruit and general farming that it is easy to see the pos: bilities of the development of these Sun Garden Farms. A big increase i values is taking pl: here, and every one familiar with realizes that this increase will take place in acreage.. In Florida it is always the case that an increase in value of acreage follows the increase in value of city property. Yours very truly, (Signed) E. V. Priest.
