At the meeting held Monday of last week, Principal B. B. Scisson and Superintendent Tom Owens met with officers of the association and made plans for the band student activities. Port St. Joe is large enough to have a first class band, and a good band has to have uniforms, music, instruments and repairs for the in- struments. All high school bands have to have outside support, and the Band Boosters Association was organized for that purpose. Those interested in the welfare of St. Joe and the high school band are urged to attend this meeting next Thursday night.

Looking back over those thirteen years, it seems but yesterday that the publisher broke ground for The Star building to give Port St. Joe its very own newspaper. We have been aided greatly in presenting the news by those who have contributed articles and items -and we deeply appreciate this as- sistance. And, too, had it not been for the continued patronage of thebusiness concerns of the city, with their advertising and commer- cial printing, there could have been no Star over the thirteen years. To all, we are most grateful, and trust that the same co-operation will continue into the distant fu- ture.

LET WASHINGTON SET EXAMPLE The editor of The Star for years has been harp- ing on the fact that the cost of government could be substantially reduced if economy measures were adopted up there in Washington, but na- turally the ravings of a country newspaper pub- lisher cut little ice with the bigwigs on the Po- tomac who throw the taxpayers' money around recklessly. Along this line, we noticed a glaring omission in Truman's radio broadcast setting forth the steps which must be taken to meet the present emergency. Said Harry: "This defense program cannot be achieved on the basis of 'business as ,usual.' All of us-whether we are farmers, or wage earners or businessmen-must give up some of the things we would ordinarily expect to have for ourselves and our families. We are all in this situation together. We must be prepared to accept some reductions in our standards of liv- ,ing." Truman merely stated what the average indi- vidual expects to do in times of stress. The thing .he completely failed to mention was any retrench- the government deeper into debt at the expense of the people. For instance, the Hoover survey showed that the government owned 848,567 typewriters which are being used by 235,000 persons. If something like this turned up in a private business, 613,567 of the typewriters would be disposed of. But not the government. It'll look around and employ 613,567 persons to run the idle, typewriters. No, the president's talk lacked the ring of sin- cerity when he failed to include government in his 'demand for so-called "sacrifices" and "reduc- tions in our standard of living."., WE DON'T UNDERSTAND IT We've just discovered that ,needy old people who receive assistance from the state welfare board are not allowed to rent rooms, keep chick- ens or do anything which might augment their stipend and thus give them a few more of the necssities, and perhaps an occasional luxury, of life.

JOE, GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA .......~srr I Ili, ...T...... 2 ,,Aii Florida Farmers Are Optimistic As Fall Season Gets Underway Optimism and industry prevail over the Florida agricultural scene as the fall season gets underway. With the exception of vegetable growers, many of whom did not re- ceive satisfactory returns from their crops last winter and spring, farm- ers and growers generally have been pleased with the prices they received for their crops, according to reports to the University ofFlor- ida agricultural extension service. Bright leaf tobacco and citrus growers were especially well satis- fied with their crops of the past season, as bright leaf brought the highest average price in the his- tory of the crop in Florida, and re- turns from citrus during the 1949- 50 season were record-breaking. Present good feeling among cit- rus growers also is due to the big crop on their trees, and the prospect of satisfactory prices for the 1950- 51 season. The tropic storm early this month blew off some grape- fruit and probably caused scar dam- age to some fruit, but the heavy rains that came with the storm 'brought much-needed moisture to 'thirsty groves and more than coun- terbalanced damage by wind. Vegetables growers are planting for late fall and winter production and hoping that demand and prices will be better during the coming season. Most farmers have been pleased with their peanut and corn crops, harvest of which is continuing, but grasshoppers caused severe losses of peanuts in some counties. Pigs are being turned into many fields of peanuts and corn planted for feed and for "hogging off." and these porkers should be ready for market in a few weeks. Florida's upland cotton crop - planted on about 30,000 acres is not as good as farmers had hoped for because of unfavorable weather and the boll weevil, but prices be- ing paid for cotton are relatively high and make up to some extent for reduced yields. The improved pecan crop, rated much better than last year's, is coming along and the prospects are still good in spite of many nuts hav- ing been blown off by high winds early this month. As usual at this time of year, pas- tures are much more fibrous and less nutritious than they were a month or so ago, but recent rains have stimulated new growth and much grass has greenedd up" con- siderably during the past ten days. Dairy farmers and beef cattlemen are preparing land for fall plant- ings of clover and temporary graz- ing crops, such as oats and rye for winter grazing. Land is also being prepared in the northern section of the state for. blue'' lupine and other winter cover crops, and more than 100,000 acres are expected to be planted to such crops this season. Grass-fat cattle are still going to market, although the bulk of this year's market animals have already been sold. Labor might become a problem during the winter and spring sea- son as a result of the rapidly ex- panding defense program. How la- bor supplies will compare with those of last season remains to be sen, but p-esent indications point to a reduced number of workers during. the 1950-51 season. Two Local Fraternity Pledges University of Florida social fra- ternities pledged 431 students at the end of the first week of the formal rush period. Among these were two from Gulf county, George Suber of Port St. Joe, pledged to Beta Theta Pi, and George Redfearn of Wewahitchka, pledged to Pi Kappa Alpha. Advertising doesn't cost-it pays!

Legislators Refuse To Look Into Campaign Expenses of Warren Group At Tampa Votes To Ditch SHouse Rules of 1949 and Go jl-k Back ,T, Those of 1945 Legislators, holding their caucus in Tampa recently, put an em- phatic "thumbs down" on a pro- posal to investigate Governor War- ren's campaign expenses. The vote Twas S9 against and one favoring, the single vote being cast by Rep- resentative Edwin Kirkland of Or- ange county, who introduced the resolution which drew fire from both supporters and members who- fought Warren toe to toe in the last session. The group voted to ditch the house rules adopted in 1949 and go back to those used in 1945, and also rec- ommended repeal of Senate Mem- orial 282, known as the "World ,Government Memorial," in the face 'of present world conditions. The legislators were in general agreement that millions more in new taxes would be needed next session, possibly as much as $65,.. 000,000. Indications are that the sales tax will be revised and a 2% tax across the board adopted. Changes in Florida laws to throw more of the burden of public relief on sons and relatives and help check the rapidly rising cost to the taxpayer were advanced. It was also pointed out at the cau- cus that new legislation is needed that would permit better law en-. torcement, and a committee is now studying this problem.

THE STAR Phone 51 Port St. Joe, Fla. O O ( J Mr. Antharnaten, 4731 South 32nd West Ave., Tulsa 7, Okla- homa, suffered from stomach distress for quite some time. He had spent much money trying everything possible for relief and was in bad health when he started taking HADA- COL. He says, "After taking three bottles of the $3.50 size, I've gained 27 pounds and now eat anything I desire and posi- tively have no trouble." (HAD- ACOL gives such wonderful results because it actually re- lieves the REAL CAUSE of stomach distress [gas pains, heartburn, indigestion after eating] due to such deficien- cies. And continued use of this great HADACOL helps prevent such distress from returning.) Mrs. Mabel Kitchen, 1650 Am- sterdam, Cincinnati, Ohio. "Be- fore I started taking HADA- COL I had aches and pains of neuritis in my shoulders, my back and arms. I could hardly move without having those terrible pains. Then I heard about HADACOL. After the second bottle the pains and aches were about gone. I'm now starting my fourth bottle and am on top of the world. I eat well and, best of all, the aches and pains are complete- ly gone." (Mrs. Kitchen is a very smart woman because she relieves the REAL CAUSE of her neuritis pains due to such de- ficiencies. HADACOL often brings a wonderful improve- ment within a few days' time.) IMPO TANT Why don't you get that wonderful iHADACOL feeling everyone is talking I about? In this modern age, wise folks are no longer satisfied with sympto- matic relief because now it's possible to relieve the CAUSE Of Such deficiency sickness with that wonderful new HADACOL. HADACOL not only supplies deficient systems with extra quantities of Mrs. J. Scieszinski, 514 Kruger, Ottumwa, Iowa, writes: "My daughter, Marilyn Sue, is 5 years old and for some time lacked pep, had a poor appetite, was generally run-down. Since giving her HADACOL, we have noticed wonderful results . she has a much better appe- tite, eats everything on the table and doesn't seem tired like she used to. Incidentally, she likes to take HADACOL, too." (HADACOL is a great 'builder-upper' for sick, nerv- ous, puny kids whose systems lack precious Vitamins B1, B2, Iron and Niacin. A big im- provement in their well-being is often noticed within a few days' time after taking the great new HADACOL.) Mr. Henry Angel, RD No. 1, Springfield, Ohio. "I used to suffer great pain from neu- ritis aches in all parts of my body, especially in my legs, arms and shoulders. I never got any real relief until I tried HADACOL. After taking sev- eral bottles, my pain is all gone. And I'm working evory day." (Now there's a smart man! Mr. Anoel took HADA- COL and relieved thn mZAL CAUSE of his neuritis pains because they were due to such deficiencies. HADACOL is helping thousands upon thousands of grateful men and women troubled this way. Why don't you give HADA- COL a chance to help you? Start taking it today!) Vitamins B, B, Iron and Niacin but also helpful amounts of precious Calcium, Phosphorus and Manganese-vital elements every human being must have to maintain good health.

If you would like infor- mation about landscaping to help you win a prize, plan to attend the Garden Club meeting October 5. An out-of-town speaker is scheduled to lecture on landscaping small yards, and the public is invited to attend. September and October are seed- planting months. Here are some tips to help you with your planting: Some of the things to plant now are calendulas, carnation, petunia, cornflower, pinks, lupin, sweet pea, Queen Anne's. lace, stocks and ver- bena. Petunias and other small seeds should be planted in flats or seed beds in a spot protected from the sun and drying winds. A good plant- ing medium is half terra-lite and half builder's sand, or half builder's sand and half peat moss. Dampen before planting. After planting the seeds, press down lightly and cover with burlap or newspapers. Never allow seeds to dry out, but -don't over-water. To keep ants from carrying away small seeds, spray with chlordane (two teaspoons to a gallon of wa- ter). This same mixture is excel- lent for preventing worms or bugs from cutting down or eating leaves of young, tender plants. (f you desire more information about seed planting, write to the State Department of Agriculture, Tallahassee, and ask for the book- let, "Flowers for Florida Homes."

Continuing to point out possible sources of further commerce, the report has this to say: "The area considered in this report as being tributary to Pcrt St. Joe includes the area in Northwest Florida from which the paper mill draws pulp- wood, plus a larger area which will be served by the authorized Apa- lachicola River waterway. The area extends north to Columbus, Ga., on addition to the above enterprises, the raising of beef cattle and hogs is becoining increasingly important in the territory. "A large percentage of the tribu- tary area is devoted to agriculture, with cotton and peanuts as chief money crops. Other agricultural products include corn, peaches, pe- cans, watermelons and sugarcane. Sugarcane is grown extensively in south Georgia and Florida for mak- ing cane syrup, and Cairo, Ga., is one of the leading syrup-producing sections in the South.

With food prices steadily rising and the prospect of having to economize even more, we could all use a few suggestions as to how to beat that bugaboo "inflation." A main essential in bringing va- riety as well as economy into your meals is advance planning. You will find that a little advance plan- ning before you go marketing will mean a substantial saving in both time and money. Before you start out to the store, go through your cupboards and the refrigerator to find what staples are needed. After you have listed the staples, make a general plan of menus for a few days ahead. It is always a good idea to check the menus with the basic seven food guide to be sure that all the essen- tials for good nutrition are includ- 'ed. Then it is time to calculate the cost to fit the budget. You will find your food dollar go- ing father than ever if you take the time to build your menus around foods grown right here in the Sun- shine State. From appetizer to des- CLASSIFIED ADS FOR RENT IFOR APARTMENTS See The sert you can prepare foods that will perk up the most jaded appetities. And best of all, you can achieve this at very little cost, since our perpetual Florida gardens keep us supplied with a variety of new and different products all year 'round. With meat prices at a pinnacle, the Florida housewife can find no product more versatile and econom- ical than fish and other seafoods. There are hundreds of different ways to prepare seafoods, and you can serve them many times a week without your family's appetite be- coming dulled. As for the all-important vege- tables in your menus-there isn't any time of the year that the pro- duce department isn't stocked with a choice selection of nutritious veg- etables. You can break the mon- otony of vegetables by serving but- ter sauces and creamf sauces made zesty by the addition of mustard, onion, horseradish, pimiento, garlic -or, add cheese, chives, green or ripe olives, and hard-cooked eggs to these sauces and you'll be get- ting requests for second helpings instead of those groans.- To round out your meals, don't forget a plentiful supply of fruits- not just the conventional oranges and grapefruit either, but try some of the exotic fruits, such as per- simmons. mangos, guavas, and pa- payas, to name a few. Whether you are a native Florid- ian, a newcomer or a visitor, you are sure to find many unusual treats when you use and prepare native Florida foods.

It Will Be Helpul to YouPART Keep This Bulb Planting Depth Chart. It Will Be Helpful to You Fall bulbs should never be plant- ed in poorly drained locations. If your garden is low, lacking a place where water never stands, but al- ways quickly runs or drains away, then such a place must be created by elevating a bed six inches or more above the surface. Remember that newly turned soil settles; so heap it above the bulbs, an inch or two, to avoid leaving a depression when it packs down. The depths of planting given in the ta- ble may be considered minimums; deeper planting may often be ad- visable. One of the chief hazards for all bulbs is "frost heaving," due to alternate freezing and thaw- ing of the soil, which may lift shal- low rooted plants out of the soil. Bulbs planted so late they cannot make roots in the fall are likely to suffer from it; and large bulbs not set deep enough will often be in- It Pay-s to Advertise Try It. jured. A mulch placed over the bulbs after the ground has frozen will keep the frost in, and reduce frost heaving. When it is intended to allow tulips to remain where you plant them several years rather than dig them up after they have blossomed and their leaves have turned yellow each summer, they should be plant- ed two or three inches deeper than the normal depth. Deep plating may cause flower- ing to be somewhat later, so all bulbs which it is desired shall blos- som at the same time should be planted the same depth. The lilies which need deep plant- ing (7 to 10 inches) are those that make roots on their stems above the bulb. The madonna il,. .-h;ch does not do this, needs shal- low planting, 3 to 4 inches down.
