They are no benefit to the state in any way whatever,” he said. ‘Florida* will always be a play- ground for the zich, with its won- derful climate. and tropical beauty, its lakes and waterfronts, Dr. Fogarty says, but the. sfite is now reaching out along agricul- tural lines, and by reclaiming the Everglades, this state will take its place among the finest farming states of*the entire country. The Ancient City, St. Augus- tine, is growing by leaps and| bounds, Dr. Fogarty stated to a Citizen representative. The Davi: Shores there is the biggest prop tion under way. A five millio; dollar sea wall is being built, and an equal amount is being spent in buildings, with two million dollars being expended in roadways. The F..E. C. railway, he is spending $95;000,000 for provements, such as trackage, sta- tions, and the most modern signal system that can be obtained. Dr. Fogarty is highly pleased with the future prospects for Key | West, and says that progress that will be made here during the next five years will exceed the most sanguine expectations. } LEGALS IN COURT OF THE COUNTY JUDGE, MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA, e In re Estate of Mary EB.
