As u matter of fact some of our congressmen apparently did not have a clear idea of it last spring when the park project was under consideration. (Several of them shoifted "snake legislation" and "alligator farm." Hut botanists and other scientists tell us it is a place of bea,uty as well as a rich, fertile region; and that it will develop into a beautiful national park comparable#with any of the others. At any rate it offers an interesting contrast. Instead of snow-capped ipeaks, wide canyons and valleys, deserts and 'caves the tourists will have ah opportunity to gaze on expanses of water, tropical Mowers and jungle foliage. Dr. John K. Small, head curator of the New York Botanical Carden, relates almost unbelievable- tales of the plant life of its interior. More than '25 varieties of orchids grow there, some of (l)e plants estimated to be as much as 500 yes^rs old. Some orchids have been found with stems 15 feet long and Mowers so large it re- ( quired four men to handle them while others had as many as 1,000 blossoms on one stem. Mangrove trees grow thick and as tall as 100 feet and cocoanut trees are abundant. Besides these are found maples, ash, cypy?ss, mahogany, rubber and many other varieties. From many of them, especially iiP^he interior, vines traif from the branches in such numbers as to form almost impassable barriers. Here and there are salt water streams (the average relief is about one foot above sea level). Attached to the roots of trees on their banks may be found growing oysters. Huge sea turtles weighing up to 300 pounds make their Home here, and come out on the sand under the cover of darkness to lay their j eggs in nests made in the sand. These eggs are considered great delicacies and natives spend a great deal of! time digging for them. Also the tur-| j ties are themselves excellent and are caught as they move from the water to their nests in the sand. A single turtle often lays from 150 to 200 cgg^., Ornithologists find the Everglades a fairyland for bird study as it is the roosting place and feeding grounds of thousands of birds. Among the species to be found here are the ibis, spoonbills, egrets, cranes, Mamingoes and herons. 'Students of animal life may find some bear, panthers or wildcats, foxes or deer?not to mention a few alligators and snakes. The waters abound with fish. The Everglades proper is a great '.saw-grass morass extending from the southwestern side of I^ake Okeechobee in southern Florida and takes in an area variously estimated from 2,500 to 5,000 square miles. It owes its origin to the copious rainfall and the slight relief of the section. In fact, the relief is so slight throughout the region that a two-foot rise of water in the past changed hundreds of square miles into a lake. Much of it was submerged during the rainy season. Besides the land acquired (2,500 acres) by Congress for the site of the park the state of Florida has made available many thousands more and the Florida Federation of Women's Clubs have offered to donate the existing Royal Palm State Park. Instead of driving out the remnants of the Seminole Indian tribe, as many friends of the Indians feared, the new park will offer protection and permanent employment to them. It is pointed out. that while visitors may travel over a great portion of it by road the most beautiful portions are in the interior which in many cases may be reached only by boat?and the Seminoles are the only persons familiar enough with it to be qualified to serve as guides on such trips. In designating the site as a park Congress stipulated that no money be spent within the next five years for improvements or maintenance. But before the question of the park had come up Congress had already in 1930 approved a project for improvement of the region through drainage, construction or dredging canals for outlets to the ocean and by erection of dikes and levees. This actidn was taken to prevent as far as possible the loss of life and property such as occurred in 1920 and 1928 when tropical hurricanes swept the region. The entire cost of the project which will reclaim much of the Everglades territory is estimated to be around $15,000,000 and is expected to be completed in about two years. Since February 1932 the work has been progressing nicely and at the present time 1,700 men under the supervision of government engineers are pushing ahead on the project.?Pathfinder. As long as you can't please everybody in this world there is nothing like pleasing yourself. There is nearly $8,060,000,000 still tied up in banks which failed or went on restricted baaia last year.
