J. HOLWORTHY, Secretary Lakeland Board of Trade. June 4, 1913. THE WEATHER AND CROPS LAKELAND IS NOW ENJOYING. Under date of May 15 Dr. W. H. Conibear wrote his home paper in Morton, Ill., thg following interest- ing letter, relative to Lakeland weather, crops, ete.: Since my last we have had very fine weather, thermometer at about 60 every morning and evening and about 70 to 80 at noon. We had al- most four weeks without rain, the last of which we ran our irrigation plant night and morning for four lays, then we had nice showers three days in succession which made it unnecessary to run it more. We are enjoying the most delightful nights 1 ever witnessed for more than a month past, cool and pleasant but not cold enough to need any extra| clothing. We still enjoy the beautiful ini- ing. It is simply grand and beyon 1y powers of description. Once in a while we see an alligator on the lake | which is of sufficient curiosity to stir up a little excitment but none have been caught yet by any of the fam- 11§, We have laid our corn by and planted cow peas between the rows ond they are just coming up. Our corn looks as fine as any that grows in Illinois. It is just beginning to put out tassels and about as high as riy shoulders. We are still picking strawberries from the plants we com- menced picking from last December. The vines are throw out runners. We have had one mess of ripe peaches from our trees and will soon have more. Wa- termelons are beginning to ripen and soon will be plentiful. We bezan sLipping tomatoes last week and expect to do so for several weeks yet. We have some very fine ones, now beginning to, mind was seeking surcease from the | toils and moils of politics—in lis- *| tening to the voice of the brakeman calling the stations. “The next station will be Mossy Head,” he shouted, as echoes of the whistle of the locomotive Adied away. Passing through again, he said: “The next head will be Bear Head.” After the train had stopped and | started and was slowing down again, ho appeared and announced: “The next head will be Cat Head.” He kept this up, ialling Deer Head and Rai Head as stations for which the whis- tle blow. An old boy who sat across the aisle from me could not stand it any longer. He reared up in his seat and said in a loud, strong voice: “This is the ‘“headingest’ place that I ever saw.” With this expression in mind, I ncw proonunce Washington the “gkatingest” place that I ever saw. The fine asphalt streets give tic girls and boys a chance to roller- skate all day. When the Washing- fon mother wants her small boy to go to market, he skates there ani back. Girls and boys skate to schoo!, tkey skate to the moving picture shows, and they skate just to Le gkating. You can go all over Wash- ington, if you are willing to take chances, on wheels on these very smooth sheet asphalt pavements. And. this reminds‘me that in wet weather Washington is also the “gkiddingest”’ place that ever hap- pened. I saw those little dink: chains on the back wheels of the automobiles, and William, my nig- ger driver, whom 1 imported, im- pressed the necessity of this pecul- forty of Washington pavements on me very forcibly when he came for me in the rain the other day. As I started to get into the mo- chine, William, looking solemn as 'an owl, said: “I dunno whether we're gwine to get home or not, it's mighty skiddery today,” and, sure enough, we went skidding along un- | ti! we got to the macadam road right across the bridge to Chevy Chase. Washington is also tha only big town I ever saw that keeps its city air and its trees. Every street in Washington is lined with trees on each side, divded between shade ma- ples and sycamores, and the colur There has not been a month sinc? we have been here but what we have { B TR ML S e I e e e A e DR IR o e U 2T It Is Usually Misunderstanding, After Al scheme 8 particularly soothing in fits | varying shades o fthe emerald to & and Simply a Most of the disagreements in life are caused by a misunderstanding of conditions and motives affecting or controlling the individuals How often do we hear some one say, “I am so sorry at variance, I did not know that such anl su spoken and acted quite differently.” We try to bear this in mind when we are talking to customers who ere a little sharp in their language over the phone. you to bear it in mind, too, when Just remember that the chances are the trouble is due to some mis- understanding, and that a few calm, considerate words passing be- tween us will make everything all right. | At any rate, give us the first 2all before you tell it to anybody .else.
