Qeneral Offices at Live Oak, Fla. The Live Oak, Perry A Gulf Railroad, popularly known a3 the Suwannee River Route," traverses one of the richest, most Eroductive and healthiest sections of Fior la. starting at Live Oak and continuing westerly through Dowling Park, Perry and Hampton Springs, to a point near the Gulf of Mexico, with a brudch to Alton. Live Oak is one of the best little business cities in Florida, with a population of about 5,000, is about 70 miles west of Jack sonville and about 25 ruiles south of the Georgia State line, is a junction point for the Seaboard Air Line, the Atlantic Coaet Line, the Live Oak, Perry & Gulf and the Florida Railway and is the County Seat for Suwauneo County. The section of Florida served by the Live Oak, Perry & Gulf Railroad la the heaviest timbered section of the State, and lumbering and allied industries are being developed in a big way in the sev eral rapidly growing towns along its line. This means unusually good openings for all classes. These heavily timbered lands are also, naturally, the richest agricul tural lands and it is these lands that the Railroad desires to settle with good hard working progressive people as fast as the lands are released by the operations of the big lumber milling companies. Suwannee County, lying as it does be tween the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, with the never failing cool sum mer breezes from east to west, has a cli mate as cool in summer as in the North and yet ideally perfect in winter, and, with ample fall for drainage and an abundance of pure drinking water, Suwannee County is an especially healthy spot. A rainfall or over do incnes per annum manes crops as Qertaia as possible. For the purpose of encouraging settlers to immediately occupy and cultivate all the unoccupied lauds in Suwannee County and thereby materially increasing theton naare and earnings of our railroad, we have succeeded in inducing the several big lumber companies on our line, who are owners of large tracts of agricultural and timber land, to let us have 25,000 acres of the best agricultural lands in Suwannee County, to lie put 011 the market to actual settlers. We absolutely exclude specula tors who wish to buy more than 320 acres, while to the actual settlers we offer land practically regardless of prices or terms. In fact, on ridiculously easy conditions to reliable people, wo will furnish from 40 to 160 acres absolutely free of one dollar's cost, on a plan much easier than land ever could have been obtained even under the Government homestead law. And, it will be remembered that millions of acres that were first acquired from the Government without cost are now worth from $50.00 to $200.00 per acre. The owners of these Su wannee County lands have consented to our opening them for immediate settle ment on our heretofore unheard of liberal terms and conditions, only because they know such settlement will greatly enhance the value of the quarter of a million acres they have yet to put on the market. Just imagine?these lands are located right along our line of Railroad; some ad joining townsltes, some not far from our local metropolis, Live Oak, and none of them more than four miles from railway servioe; close to good schools, churches, markets, neighbors and only about three | hours' ride to the great city of Jackson ville, with its seaport markets to the world. These are the best lands in the State of Florida for the raising of corn, cane, lona: staple cotton, upland rice, all kinds of hay and fodder, cowpeas, velvet beans, cavassa, peanuts, potatoes (both sweet and Irish), vegetables of all kinds, fruits, nuts, cattle, hogs, mules and horses; while the conditions for poultiy raising, bee keeping and dairying are ideal.

In and 1 wannee County well settled and all under cultivation?a veritable garden spot-^and lands selling at $100.00 per acre and up wards. But, for the present, our Railroad needs more settlers and more tonnage; therefore, prices and terms on these lands are no object. In short, if you can con vince us tbat you are capable or farming from 40 to 320 acres and that you could, If necessary, come to Florida with a cash working capital of $500.00 or over, prefera bly $1000.00 or more, you canon the easiest conditions Imaginable secure through us, without one dollar's cost a farm or from 46 to 160 acres under warranty deed to farm, hold, sell or do with as you wish. If interested, we would be glad to tell you all about this country, our planB, the opportunities here for money making, and especially the conditions by which you muy have one of these farms free of cost.

Lessen Tetrned bp Seaater Tlllnua Fren His Feeding Experieaees detailed Last Week. A Business Which Can It Made Profitable- . Senator B. B. Tillman, In Progressive Farmer. Don't feed cattle at all unless you build a silo or can get hulls for lees than S5 per ton and have only a short distance to haul them. T^nn'f Ka nlnrmarl of fko /wvif /\# a *11 JL/VU v ISO OiOlUlCU au HUU WOU VI o OilU> My two, wblch together will hold 360 tons, only cost, all told, $500. I calculate with ordinary lumber putin a subsantiai way. the cost of a similar silo need not exceed $200. There is no doubt that If the ensilage is well packed around the edges of the silo during the process of tilling and the whole Burface well trodden and left level, it wiU keep nicely. There is no need of a roof at all is this climate sever for the protection of the laborers who get out the ensilage. I did not use any roof on mine beause I wanted to test this very point. Don't buy cattle to feed unless you know what kind of cattle will sell best?the beef type. . I ? Don't buy cattle to feed weighing leas than 959 pounds. This is the limit down ward. One thousand pounds is the proper minimum. There is more ready sale and more profit in steers Velghing 1.900 and l,300wnen fattened. Don.t try to feed ordinary scrub cattle for they will not take on flesh or sell as well as the bllooded grades. They will make as much manure and as good ma nure, but the selling at a profit is a true test which will in tne end govern this bus iness. Don't feed damaged cottonseed meal, for while it is perhaps as good for fertilizer, it win not enow tne some repuim in iyouiujj as good bright meal. Don't fall to clean out the troughs with a wooden paddle just before feeding each time. This is important to save feed and to keep the catti with an appetite. Don't make the mistake of having your troughs loo shallow, and be sure to arrnge so that you can elevate them as the ma nure rises. My troughs are between the posts which suppert roof and I use irop pins 5-8 inoh in diameter to support the troughs. My troughs are 14 inches deep and they are too shallow. Deep troughs are not as essential in feeding ensilage as in feeding hulis and meal. It is highly nessary to have plenty of trough room, for when the feed is put in, the greedy anl uicuo auvf vi mio vbuuia uotuu uu\* #w w vu?^ after each one has a place within reach of the feed that they begin to eat. Don't forget the beading. Unless battle are oomfortablethey will not take on fleah as they should. This means they ought to be well bedded or put out In the open' except during storm or cold rain. The vuestlon of wbesher to feed Id a barn or out In the open must be decided by local con]tlons. i know it will not do to feed in the open on clay soils, but on saudy land that will not ruin by being puddled there are only a few days In each winter when aa4^Ia mill r*/\f rl/v Knn LLltJ UCkWUU TT ui UUl> UU VUtOtUO 14JUU | under cover. Don't expect to get the prices for beeves ] that you see quoted In the papers. These prices are for corn-fed Western beeTes and always command % to% a cent more pea j pound than cottonseed meal cattle. Don't fail to recollect that you can get Information of the right kind from, the ex perts employed by your State, by the United States government, and by the Cottonseed Crushers' association. Buying ah ensilage cutter and engine is along the line of cooperation atuog the farmers just as In buying a guano mixer or a threshlnf outfit. My 12-botse-power gasoline engine cost a little over $600 aad the ensilage cutter with blown and elevator cost $165.
