Abstract:
The Live Oak Suwannee Democrat is one of the oldest continuously published weeklies in the State of Florida. It began in 1884 in Live Oak, which at the turn of the century was the fifth largest city in Florida, preceded only by Jacksonville, Pensacola, Tampa, and Key West. The Suwannee Democrat enjoyed a corresponding reputation as a journalistic leader in the state. As its name suggests, the newspaper in its early days was affiliated with the Democratic Party. Its first editor hid under an assumed name when he was suspected of murder. A deathbed confession by the actual perpetrator allowed him to resume his true identity: F.R. McCormack, about whom, however, little else is known. From 1906 through 1907, the Suwannee Democrat was supplemented by the Live Oak Daily Democrat, edited by Charles W. Irwin. The rural character of early 20th-century Suwannee County, well known for its grist and lumber mills and poultry farms, is visible in the pages of the Suwannee Democrat. Indeed, over the years the newspaper has won numerous awards from the Florida Press Association for the quality of its agricultural reporting. Fires have taken their toll on the Suwannee Democrat. In 1906, a disgruntled printer left Live Oak by railroad on the night that the newspaper’s offices were burned to the ground. In October 1995, a fire destroyed a historic block of Live Oak’s downtown, and the newspaper’s office was one of the casualties. Lost in the fire were the last known issues of the Suwannee Democrat dating from 1897 through 1900.

Local singer competes in


nationwide talent search


A DAY TO REMEMBER ALWAYS: It was a day to remember for the rest of her life when local singer Shelly Mon-
roe was selected to compete in the Fox 49 American Idol competition in Tallahassee for a chance to be on the
2006-07 American Idol show this fall. Shelly, pictured center behind the sign, had lots of support from her
friends and family for her part in the competition. Photo: Susan K. Lamb

Democrat Managing Editor
When growing up, youngsters of-
ten dream of becoming a big star
and some day standing on a huge
stage before an adoring audience be-
ing heralded as a star. That dream
almost came true for a local woman
who was recently selected as one of
only 30 people from among hun-
.dreds to audition for the Fox 49
American Idol competition in Talla-
hassee. A selected number of win-
ners from across America will com-
pete this fall and next spring to win
the American Idol title.
Although she didn't make it to the
regional competition, Shell Mon-
roe, a vivacious blonde who never
meets a stranger and made many


new friends among
the other contes-
S tants, said she's not
devastated at all, but
Rather has been en-
riched by the experi-
ence. "God must
have something else
QUOTE: planned for me!"
,GId Monroe said of her
d experience. t"It was
must have really neat to be part
something, of this contest; I had
something
a lot of fun!" she
else added. "I'm so
planned thankful for those
S who came to support
for me!" me, and I appreciate
Shelly their constant en-
S OnrOe, couragement!"

TeddyMac Elvis (Ted McMullen)
If "Suspicious Minds" or "Heartbreak
Hotel" are your kind of music-or if you


n the


love 1970s jumpsuits, rhinestone
jewelry and flashy shows-you need
to be at he Spirit of the Suwannee
Music Park this Saturday! The Satur-
days on the Suwannee series at the
Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park
will present TeddyMac Elvis this
Saturday, July 22, at 7 p.m.
TeddyMac Elvis (Ted McMullen)
is a babyboomer whose Elvis roots
go back to the 1950s when his musi-
cian father set the words to "Heart-
break Hotel" to music. A friend by
the name of Mae Borne Axton wrote
* the words and brought them to the
senior McMullen. Axton also hap-
pened to be the mother of another
music legend-Hoyt Axton. His father re-
ceived $20 and a thank you note from


building!

Elvis Presley. Thus the roots of Ted Mc-
Mullen's lifelong affiliation with Elvis
were born.
McMullen appears as "The King" at
parties, conventions, festivals, grand
openings, corporate events and benefits
throughout the country. He has been a
huge crowd pleaser at previous events

Monroe, 24, of Live Oak,
a singer who has been
singing in church and other
public places since she was
old enough to talk, applied
online to be in the competi-
tion this summer. After not
hearing any reply, Monroe
thought she wasn't picked
and nearly forgot about the
application. "I was at
church on a Wednesday
night when my cell phone
rang, and it was Fox 49
telling me I had been cho-
sen to compete in the Talla-
hassee American Idol com-
petition," Monroe said. Al-
though the call was one
that only a very few people
in America will ever get
and Monroe said she was
absolutely.thrilled, there
was just one little problem
- she was headed for New,
York City the week of the
competition! Plans were
quickly adjusted to allow
her to return the day before
the competition that was to
be held in Tallahassee at
the North Florida Fair-
grounds.
On the day of the compe-
tition, all 30 contestants
were pumped up and ready
for perhaps one of the
greatest opportunities of
their lifetimes the Ameri-
can Idol competition! Nine-
teen of Monroe's family
and friends took the day off
to head to Tallahassee to
show their support and love
for her and cheer her on,
complete with a sign that
said, "Sing it, Shelly!" The
wait for Monroe's turn
seemed to take an eternity
as she was near the last of
the contestants to have
their 30 seconds of fame.
Everyone knew that 10
winners from the 30 would
go to regional competition


at Wild Adventures this
weekend, July 22, to com-
pete for the right to a guar-
anteed audition in front of
the most famous judges in
America Randy Jackson,
Paula Abdul and Simon
Cowell. The winner of the
Fox 49 Final in Valdosta
Saturday would subject
themselves to the scrutiny
of the judges during the
Memphis' "American Idol"
audition and also receive a
10-song recording session
with Summerhill Digital
Recording Studio in Cairo,
Ga. In Tallahassee, each
contestant had 30 seconds
to sing a portion of a song
of their choice without mu-
sic. If a contestant went on
to the second round, they
had to sing a patriotic song
that was revealed to them
just moments before their
turn -to perform in the sec-
ond round. The final 10
then sang a number of their
choice with musical back-
ground. Alas, judges had to'
narrow down the number of
contestants from 30 to 10
and Monroe was not among
the 10.
Monroe, who works in
public relations and also
runs her own business, said
she's busy enough already
without seeking a singing
career, but still, it was a
fun experience she'll al-
ways remember. "I com-
mute to Gainesville daily
where I work with an or-
thopedic and joint restora-
tion company, Exactech,
Inc. In my.spare time I run
a small event planning
business, eShele' Soiree',"
she said. "I'm very in-
volved in my church, West-
wood Baptist, and I hope to
finish college soon, too,"
she stated. "I'm happy I
could add this experience
to my accomplishments."

BOYD REPORT

Protecting our

voting rights
By Congressman Allen Boyd
(D-FL)
Recently, Congress voted
to reauthorize the historic
Voting Rights Act of 1965,
L One of the most significant
i, pieces of legislation enacted
.':. during the 20th century, the
Allen Boyd V oting Rights Act helped
guarantee one of our most
fundamental rights-the right of every citizen
to participate in the political process.
The right to choose one's representatives
in the voting booth is the basis of a free, de-
mocratic society. Without a meaningful vote,
there can be no equality before the law, no
equal access, and no equal opportunity. Yet,
for a hundred years after the Civil War, mil-
lions of African-Americans were denied this
fundamental right, despite the 15th Amend-
ment to the Constitution that prohibited the
denial of the right to vote on the basis of
race or color. Poll taxes, literacy tests, and
even physical violence were, used to deny
African-Am~ icans their legal right to vote.
Signed into law by President Lyndon John-
son on August 6, 1965, the Voting Rights Act
provides extensive protection to minority
communities by ensuring that the right to
vote is fully protected. The success of the
Voting Rights Act has led to significant po-
litical achievement and greater minority rep-
resentation at all levels of government. The
reauthorization of this landmark bill demon-
strates our continued determination to re-
move all voting obstacles and safeguard'the
rights of all Americans.
Since 1965, the Voting Rights Act has been
extended five times, first in 1970, then in
1975, 1982, 1992, and now 2006. Changes
have included the requirement of bilingual
ballots and voting assistance, thereby in-,
creasing the act's scope to cover non-English
speaking minorities. In 1982, the Voting
Rights Act was amended to protect the
rights of voters with disabilities. The most
recent extension this year reauthorized for
25 years key provisions of the Voting Rights
,Act that were set to expire in 2007. These
provisions prevent discriminatory voting
practices and require bilingual ballots for
those with liniited English proficiency. Our
nation's history is one of expanding rights,
and it is imperative that we adjust our laws
to reflect that.
The Voting Rights Act was one of the na-
tion's most crucial civil rights victories and
memorializes those who marched, struggled,
and died to secure the right to vote for all
Americans. While substantial progress has
been made in the area of voting rights over
the last 40 years, we must continue to create
a more just, fair, and equal society. This
week's vote shows our commitment to this
goal. I am proud that Congress agreed to
reauthorize important provisions of the Vot-
ing Rights Act so that this act can continue
to protect the most fundamental expression


of equality in our democracy: the right to
vote.

tesy and zoning board decisions,
both city and county? Now you
can let everyone know how you
feel if you will be respectful in
how you express yourself and
don't use profanity.

nesses. If you prefer, you may e-

We moved here from
Palm Beach County, and
we're very happy to be
here in Suwannee Coun-

a tight grip on develop-

will be gone too, like all
the rest.

In the picture of the

Like 'to make a com-
ment on the buckle up,
particularly on truck
programs. Just today, I
see two pickups loaded
with kids in the bed of
the pickup truck. How
do they get away with
this when they have to
pbe iiiSide to buckle up? 1"

County Commission-
ers need to start doing
their jobs and putting
county regulations on
dairy manure spray-
fields.

I'm wondering how
long we're going to have
this train wreck on the
side of US 90. Are they
going to be cleaning that
up any time soon? It's an
eyesore for tourists go-
ing through the county.

I believe if we would
set the example for our
children in obeying the
speed laws, our county
and our state would
have fewer accidents
and save lives. In fact,
when we speed, we
break the law, when we
break the law, we sin,
then you also sin against
God, you break God's
laws.

I note they say Randy
Hatch will be the first
president of the Florida
Association of Counties,
(from Live Oak) but I be-
lieve research will show
that Lamar Hancock was
the first president and
Sby the way, we could
use a lot more like
Lamar Hancock and
Randy Hatch on our pre-
sent board and do some
things we should do and
undo some of the things
we're trying to do.
The number is 208-


8314. Call now! Call of-
ten! Give your name if
you like, but it's not re-

Stopping skin cancer


epidemic starts with children


Skin cancer rates in the
United States are in-
creasing at epidemic lev-
els. In fact, one blistering
sunburn in childhood
more than doubles a per-
son's chances of devel-
oping melanoma later in
life. The majority of skin
cancers are almost al-
ways preventable with
good sun protection
habits. Children should
be taught from an early
age to be aware of the
problems associated
with sun exposure and
the need to use sun pro-
tection.
"By 2010, melanoma
rates are projected to rise
to 1 in 50 Americans,"
said The Skin Cancer
Foundation President
Perry Robins, M.D. "The
most important factors
contributing to the rise in
melanoma rates areex-
posure to ultraviolet rays
(UVR) in early child-
hood, sunburns,.and in-
termittent increased ex-
posure to the sun."
Parents can teach their
children early sun pro-
tection techniques that
will help prevent skin
cancer later in life. The
Foundation recommends
the following methods of
protection for different
age groups.
Babies
Babies' skin is extreme-
ly sensitive and can burn
easily. In fact, babies un-
der six months of age
should be kept out of tfhe
sun. Follow these tips for
babies older than six
months:
Take walks early in the
morning or late after-
noon and use a stroller
with a sun-protective
cover.
Dress babies in loose-
fitting outfits that cover
arms and legs. Clothing
made with a UPF of 30 or
higher offers the best


protection. For a selec-
tion of stylish, sun pro-
tective children's cloth-
ing, check out www.ca-
banalife.com. A portion
of proceeds from Cabana
Life sales benefits The
Skin Cancer Foundation.
Choose a hat that pro-
tects the baby's face,
neck, and ears. A baby
who wears a hat during
the first few months will
get used to having it on.
Sunglasses are not very
practical for. a young
baby. To protect your
baby's eyes, seek the
shade between 10 a.m.
and 4 p.m.
Apply a broad-spec-
trum, SPF, 15-plus sun-
screen to areas left un-
covered such as baby's
hands.
While in the car, shield
the baby from direct sun-
light coming in through
the side window with
UV-blocking window
film.
Toddlers
Protecting toddlers
from the sun requires a
little, more thought and
effort. It is important to
not only educate your
child, but the caregiver
as well.
Make sure your child
seeks the shade between
10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Check
the outdoor area where
your child plays to make
sure there is adequate
shade protection.
A broad-spectrum, SPF
.-15-plus sunscreen
should be apiplied'every
morning, 20 minutes be-
fore leaving the house.
Keep sunscreen in the
bathroom where chil-
dren brush their, teeth,
and eventually it will be-
come routine.
Two tablespoons of
sunscreen must be ap-
plied every two hours
and more often if your
child is swimming or


sweating.
Children should wear
sun protective clothing-
including shirts, hats
and sunglasses-as their
primary line of defense
against UVR. Make sure
your child wears a wide-
brimmed hat, long-
sleeved shirt and pants
during prolonged peri-
ods in the sun.
School-Age Children
Most of the sun protec-
tion methods used for
toddlers and young chil-
dren should be applied
to elementary school
children:
Wear sun protective
clothing every day, espe-
cially if you live in a
warm climate.
Apply' broad-spec-
trum, SPF 15-plus sun-
screen to exposed skin.
Reapply sunscreen af-
ter two hours of UVR ex-
posure and continue to
reapply.
Be sure your child
wears a hat during re-
cess.
Reach your -child to
look for shaded areas in'
which to play.
Teach your child to
wear sunglasses while
outside.
Children should enjoy
the outdoors safely.
Learn how to protect
your children, teach
them how to protect
themselves and tell oth-
ers about the importance
of sun protection.
The Skin Cancer Foun-
idaoon is the only,global
organization solely de-
voted to the prevention,
detection and treatment
of skin cancer. The mis-
sion of the Foundation is
to decrease skin cancer
incidence and mortality
by means of public and
professional education,
medical training and re-
search.

Smith's


Continued From Page 1A
Tony Cameron, Lafayette
County Sheriff Carson McCall,
Hamilton County Sheriff Har-
rell Reid, and many other elect-
S ed local officials too numerous
to mention were on hand also to
show support for Smith's cam-
paign.
Among the things Smith said
during his speech were:
*When he's governor, he'll
raise teacher salaries and move
Florida up in standings nation-
wide in education.
*He has nothing against test-
ing, but will not use FCAT to
determine teachers' pay
*Promised affordable insur-
ance in Florida
*He understands environ-
mental issues
*Noted that because he's
lived in North Florida so long
and is familiar with it and its
needs, "I'll know what Suwan-
nee County needs, and I'll re-
spond to it."
*When he's governor, Flori-
da will buy drugs as a state and
make them affordable
More than anything else,
Smith said, he's in the gover-
nor's race because of his father.
"We didn't have anything when
we came to Florida. I stand on
the shoulders of his dream."
Smith said he wants to pass on
his father's dream..."I want the
government to make sure we
give our children what they
need," he told the cheering
crowd.
Smith stopped in Live Oak as
he made his way from the west
end of Florida to the south end
in a weeklong effort to visit
many major cities and reach
voters with his message. The
trip began in Gainesville Mon-
day and ends today in the Mia-
mi area.
According to Smith's website
(rodsmith2006.com), he was
bom into a house with no run-
ning water, and he and his fami-
ly moved to Florida when he
was barely two years old. His
father was able to purchase a
family farm in Loxahatchee.
Smith attended public schools
in Palm Beach County, later
earning a law degree in 1975
from UF. He spent 17 years as
a labor lawyer representing the
rights of working Floridians, in-
cluding police officers, fire-
fighters and public employees,
throughout the state. He was
elected as Eighth Circuit State
Attorney, (defeating Len Regis-
ter, (R), a governor's appointee
who had previously served lo-
cally as an assistant state attor-
ney in the Third Circuit). Smith


earned national recognition for
his successful prosecution of
the Gainesville student serial
killer on charges of first-degree
murder for the slaying of five
college students
Described as "the candidate
of hope and opportunity," hav-
ing "the absolute best creden-
tials for a Democrat," "a tireless
fighter for Democratic priori-
ties," "a pro-choice, pro-educa-
tion and pro-working family
Democrat who should be our
nominee for Governor," "the
Democrat Florida has been
waiting for," "a genuine threat
to the Florida Republican Par-
ty," Smith is seeking the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor
,and will square off against Sen.
Jim Davis of Tampa and a num-
ber of other much lesser known
Democrats seeking the nomina-
tion Sept. 5 in Florida's prima-
ry. He has been ranked by the
Miami Herald as the most ef-
fective Democrat in the Florida
Senate. The winner in the De-
mocratic race, expected to be
Smith or Davis, depending on
which poll you believe, will be
on the ballot with the winner of
the Republican primary Nov. 7
where voters will decide who
will serve as governor for the
next four years.
Top Republican candidates
expected to battle it out for the
November slot are Tom Gal-
lagher and Charlie Crist.

candidates, search the Intemet
using the candidate's names.

l"


(Editor's note-All material was taken from the Florida
Handbook, pages 307-309, and other Florida histories.)
It was sunny and warm that February in 1864. A Federal ex-
. peditionary force of 5,500 men was occupying Jacksonville for
the fourth time during the war.
Their primary objective was to break communications bet-
ween East and West Florida. They also planned on recruiting
Negros for Union regiments. Cotton, turpentine and timber had
to be taken for Union supplies. Perhaps more importantly, the
supply route from East and South Florida to the beleaguered
Confederate forces farther north had to be cut.
THE UNION TROOPS WERE MADE UP OF MEN from
Massachusetts, New York and Connecticut under the command
of General Truman A. Seymour.
Moving west, Federal raiders fanned out from Jacksonville
meeting little native resistance. On February 9 they took the rail
junctions for Fernandina and Cedar Key as well as from
Jacksonville to Tallahassee, They had seized $500,000 worth of
supplies;
By February 11 the calvary had penetrated to within three
miles of Lake City. After a skirmish with Confederate troops,
they withdrew to Sanderson.
Meanwhile, hastily reinforced Confederates dug defensive
works along a, line from Ocean Pond (OIustee) across the east-
west railroad. Olustee is some 15 miles east of Lake City.
Three Union infantry brigades, three batteries of artillery and
one cavalry unit moved against the Confederate forces.
Two-thirds of the southerners were from Georgia. They were
comprised of one cavalry unit, two infantry brigades and three
artillery batteries. General Joseph Finegan commanded the
5,200 men.
The early sun on February 20 saw the Federals setting out in
two columns from Sanderson. One advanced west down the
sandy road, the other along the railroad tracks. As the columns
neared Olustee, a regiment was sent ahead to throw out skir-
mishers.
A LITTLE BEFORE NOON, FINEGAN SENT his cavalry with
supporting infantry east to skirmish with the Northern troops. He
hoped to draw them into the prepared Confederate position.
Finegan soon decided, however, that Seymour would be too
cautious to attack an entrenched force. He sent three regiments
commanded by General A.H, Colquitt to attack whatever force
he met.
By 12:30 p.m. the Confederate cavalry made contact with the
advance Union elements. Moving steadily westward, the Federal
forces crossed the road and railroad until they were about two
miles east of Olustee.
Colquitt was ready for them. Cannon and rifle fire crashed
through the pine forest
The Confederate line was made up of cavalry units flanking a
central core oi infantry Sepmour placed his three artillery
hEatleri;. ifr ire center ih flanks ui attacking ini.nir!
While arrempting to-deploy tito positioanlin'nion infantry
became confused Communicating broke down and the artillery
could not be wheeled against the Confederates.
Under fire from the Southerners, the batteries lost so many
men and animals they were forced to abandon six of their guns.

The guns were later captured by the advancing Confederates.
LATE IN THE AFTERNOON, THE CONFEDERATES ran out
of ammunition. Orderlies and staff officers were forced to ride to
the rear for more.
The Confederates slowly followed the retreating Union troops.

The Soutn failed to capitalue on their victory over the Union"
troops. The remnants of Seymour's troops retreated to
Jacksonville, where they remained for the duration of the war.

Meet Again After 115 Years'


Conferates at Battle Of luster
Conferates at Battle Of OIustee
* ^V i" ''"'


The Battle of Olustee was re-fought Sunday after a 115-year
interlude of quiet. Drawing Civil War buffs and historians, the re-
enactment was sponsored by the First Regiment Florida
Volunteer Infantry (FRFVI) Co. D., of Gainesville.
The original battle pitted equal forces of Confederate and
Union troops against each. other at Ocean Pond, about 15 mjles
east of Lake City, February 20, 1864.
The Federal objective was to disrupt communications between
East and West Florida, and to stop the flow of salt, bacon and
beef to the embattled Confederate troops farther to the north.
THE CONFEDERATESROUTED THE NORTH, forcing them
to return to Jacksonville for the duration of the war.
Recorded accounts of camp life and battle action were closely
reviewed, making sure the "battle" followed history as closely
as possible. Clothing and weapons were also carefully resear-
ched by participants.
Primitive camp sites were set up for the troops. Shelter halves


or period tents were arranged as living quarters for them.
Cooking was done in iron pots and pans over an open fire. The
U.S. Forestry Service supplied the actors with venison from
confiscated deer.
Inis year's battle also featured two authentic Napoleon can-
nons originally part of Stonewall Jackson's artillery They
weighed about 3,000 pounds each and they were part of the
Confederate arsenal. The pair arrived with a Winchester,
Tennessee unit.
A NEW DIMENSION WAS ADDED THIS YEAR to the three-
year-old annual drama. An arts and crafts show featuring black
powder and tin-type photographs were exhibited. Southern
cooking was available for sampling.
A rodeo and parade spiced up the "pre-war" atmosphere
Friday and Saturday nights. A memorial service followed the
battle.
An estimated 15,000 persons attended the battle.

Grant used to break the_

cycle .of child abuse or: "IM,, m.r


A $137,800 grant from
the Jessie Ball duPont Re-
ligious, Charitable and
Educational Fund will
help Children's Home So-
ciety 'of Florida (CHS) to
launch a new effort to
break the cycle of child
abuse. CHS, a private not-
for-profit known for 104
years of caring for Flori-
S da's abused, neglected
Sand abandoned children,
is boosting its core efforts
through the addition of
applied research.
S"I can't tell you how ex-
cited I am to be a part of-
Children's Home Society
for the next several years,".
said Robert Moser, execu-
tive vice president of Sun-
Trust Banks and chair of
CHS'. strategic planning
committee. "Rarely ,does
anyone get the opportuni-
ty to make an impact that
can significantly improve
the lives of thousands of
children. I truly believe
we are poised to have that
impact."
CHS' approach will be
to: 1) conduct applied re-
search on social service
programs that address
complex family manage-
ment issues; 2) document
the most effective pro-
grams and elements; 3)
develop new programs in-
corporating these strate-
gies; and, 4) use the re-
sults to drive advocacy ef-
S forts at the state and na-
tional levels.
In simpler terms, fami-
lies most at risk for child
abuse almost always
struggle with multiple is-
sues such as substance
abuse, illiteracy, unem-
ployment, housing, men-
tal health diagnoses, etc.
However, resources for
these struggling families
are delivered in single-is-
sue funding streams, mak-
ing it extremely challeng-
ing to address the overall
health of a family in order
to reduce the stressors
that lead to child abuse.
CHS plans to pilot pro-
grams that cross over
these funding boundaries,
breaking down barriers in
an effort to better protect
children.
"The need is never more
urgent to collect sound ev-
idence that tells us what
programs, services and
techniques most help
troubled families become
healthy," said David A.
Bundy, president and


CEO of Children's Home
Society. To protect a child
and help him escape the
cycle of abuse means he
and generations to come
will have the opportunity
to be successful, support-
ive and nurturing."
SNo other organization in
the country known to be
researching best practices
in child welfare has CHS'
capacity to both serve and
study large numbers of
clients. Delivering ser-
vices to more than 139,000
children and family mem-
bers in 2004-05, CHS -has
an unprecedented capabil-
ity of reaching large num-
bers of clients with data-
driven programs and
training for child welfare
practitioners. CHS is the
ideal laboratory for' this
critically important effort.
Seeking seed money for
its innovative evidence-
based approach to child
protection, CHS turned to
the Jessie Ball duPont
Fund, source of CHS' ini-
tial 2005 planning grant
for this new direction. Lo-
cated in Jacksonville,
where CHS was founded
in 1902, the duPont: Fund
awards grants to 325 eligi-
ble institutions, encourag-
ing those institutions to
expand their capacity to
serve their communities,
finding new and innova-
tive ways to extend the
reach of Mrs. Alfred I.
(Jessie Ball) duPont's lega-
cy.
CHS is the fourth largest
private not-for-profit in the
United States and Canada
accredited by the Council on
Accreditation for Child &.
Family Services and is the
oldest statewide provider of.
services to children and fam-
ilies in Florida, pre-dating
state governmental agencies.
Infulfilling its mission, "Em-
bracing Children. Inspiring
Lives.," CHS offers a broad
spectrum of services that in-
clude adoption, foster care,
emergency shelter residen-
tial group homes, indepen-
dent and transitional living
for teens, parent education,
counseling, mentoring and
treatment for developmental-
ly disabled children. Head-
quartered in Winter Park,
CHS currently manages the
cases of nearly one-third of
all children in the Florida
foster care system. Operating
200-plus locations through-
out the state, CHS employs
more than 2,300 dedicated
staff to deliver child-cen-
tered, family-focused pro-
grams.

Summer Dog baseball ended its season on
the road at the summer baseball district tourna-
ment. The Dogs traveled to Godby High in Tal-
lahassee Thursday, July 6 but got rained out
and had to play twice Friday. Suwannee
opened up against Wakulla. Wakulla beat
Suwannee 6-3. The Summer Dogs had to turn
around and play again against Madison. The
Dogs \ on this one 6-3.
SThe loss to Wakulla put the Dogs in the
losers' bracket. Suwannee had to play Wakulla
again to move up. they played \akulla Satur-
day and lost 1-15.
According to Summer Dog coach Vernon
W\ggens the format of summer baseball
stretches out and stresses out the pitching staff.
Summer baseball schedules either t\ o fi\ e-in-
nirig games for each outing or one 10-inning -
game. Either \vaN. pitchers get tired, sore and


worked a lot.
Suwannee started Ty Smith against Wakulla
and tried to put in Sean Ryan as relief.But
Ryan is suffering from a sore shoulder and
could barely pitch one inning. Derrick Warren
came in and finished the game.
Daniel Tillman pitched the winning game
against Madison. Tillman picked up the win
and Warreri came in as relief in the final in-
nings.
Wiggens said they tried to start Ryan Satur-
day against Wakulla again but had to take him
out dud to his injury. Austin Brewster came in
to relieve Ryan.
"Austin pitched well for three innings and
then it fell apart." Wiggens said.
The summer baseball season is over for
Suwvannee. Wiggens said he will be helping
Head Baseball Coach Ronnie Gray in the
spring of 2007 for the Suwannee High baseball
season. "The team \\ill be young and inexperi-
enced, but the 'll be tine," Wiggens said about

"Threatened" instead of"En-

manatees' future is secure.
"Although the manatee is
still listed as Endangered at
the federal level and is rec-


,ommended for Endangered
status at the international
level, the state's plan to
downlist manatees prema-
turely could have grave fu-
.ture consequences for the
manatee population since
most protections for mana-
tees are implemented at the
state level," Rose said.

won't change, a review of
Florida law shows Endan-
gered species receive more
protection than Threatened
species." The commission
claims the Management Plan
they'll devise will protect the
manatees, but Rose says
Florida's Legislature will be
pressured by powerful lobby-
ihg interests to reduce the
agency's authority and fund-'
ing used for manatee protec-
tibn efforts.
"'According to FWC's scien-
tists, the manatee population
tould be reduced by as much
as 50% in the future from
growing human-related
threats, red tide, and habitat
loss. Statistics also show boat
strikes continue to kill mana-
tees in near-record numbers.
During winter months,
manatees use the warm water
discharges of power plants.
As aging plants are closed,
these discharges will no


longer be available to mana-
tees seeking refuge from the
cold. Similarly, the natural
springs that manatees also de-
pend on for winter refuges are
being degraded from pollu-
tion, and spring flows are de-
creasing from development
pressures within spring water-
sheds. There are mounting
concerns that the loss of these
winter habitats could cause
catastrophic future losses in
the manatee population.
Rose, who officially as-
sumed the title of Executive
Director on July 1st, is no
stranger to the manatees'
plight or to the organization.
He has been Director of Gov-
ernment Relations for the
Club since 1996 and has over
30 years' experience working
with manatees. His extensive
background includes advocat-
ing for manatees before the
Florida Legislature and Gov-
ernor and Cabinet. Rose was
the first federal Manatee Re-
covery Activities Coordinator


and Florida's first Manatee
and Marine Mammal Coordi-
nator. Working at the state's
Marine Research Laboratory
in St. Petersburg he imple-
mented and oversaw Florida's
manatee and marine mammal
research and management
programs. He also went on to
head the state's Office of Pro-
tected Species in Tallahassee
where he provided overall
policy guidance and direction
for statewide recovery efforts
for endangered and protected
marine species until 1996.
Rose served as a member of
each federal Manatee Recov-
ery Team and is a former
member of the I.U.C.N.
World Conservation -
Union/Sirenia Specialist
Group. He has won numer-
ous professional awards and
has a Master's degree in
aquatic biology from the Uni-
versity of Missouri at Kansas
City and a Certification in

Judith Vallee, who was
Save the Manatee Club's Ex-

21 years, handed the torch
over to Pat so she could pur-
sue other interests, but she
will also continue to be in-
volved with the Club as a
part-time fund raiser. "I'm
happy that such a dedicated
and qualified professional
will lead the Club," Vallee
said.
When Rose isn't busy
working, he often can be
found diving and taking pho-
tos of manatees or enjoying a
day fishing with friends and
family. "Ever since the fourth
grade, I knew I wanted to
work with manatees," said
Rose. "They are victims of
our fast-paced, non-stop
growth. With good, long-
range plans, we can and
must ensure a place.in
Florida's future for the mana-
tee. The FWC would have

training gives the puppies ex-
posure to birds in the field and
helps them develop their prey
drive.
When Smith's not training
dogs he's traveling to seminars
to speak. His cousin Rick also
gives seminars.
Ronnie Smith Kennels can
host about 50 dogs per rotation.
The kennel runs are 5 foot by
15 foot. A stake out chain or the
"classroom", is shaded and has
a misting system to keep dogs
cool during training.
The training begins early and
ends before the heat of the day
sets in. Ronnie gets help from
his kennel manager, Chris Lar-
son. Larson said one person
cleans the kennel and catches
homing pigeons, which are
used for training, while the oth-
er brings the dogs out. They
also take care of any grooming
e, dsof long ,hired dogs. ,
Smith also takes appendices.
This rotation, Smith has ac-
cepted apprentice Jeff Vincent
of Canada. Vincent brought
along two of his dogs for train-
ing. Vincent, involved in oil
field consulting, said he heard
about Ronnie through the Inter-
net and word of mouth. He
hopes to one day open his own
kennel when he retires.
"This is a program that puts
you knee deep in the operation
of running a kennel," said Vin-
cent.
In the winter Ronnie contin-
ues to stay busy. He and Rick
lead guided hunting tours on
the Mariposa Ranch in South

"We've always been good
here, but we want to be
good enough to win and get
ourselves in a good posi-
tion, and qualifying always
helps that," Gordon said.
"We're feeling pretty good
about the way things are go-
ing about the car, and
about the team and perfor-
mance. We've had-some
wins, so we're hoping we
can carry some of that mo-
mentum and bring that here
to the Brickyard in August."
In town last week for a
rain-plagued three-day test-
ing session, Gordon got in
96 laps in his two test vehi-
cles, as he was limited to
just one afternoon of action.
It wasn't the workout he had
in mind, but the four-time
Brickyard winner recog-
nized the value 'of just get-
ting out there.
"It was very important,"
Gordon said. "Obviously we
wanted to get a full two
days in, to get as much in-
formation as we could, but
we'll take what we can get.
I think we got enough laps
done to learn what this tire
is going to do and get some
good data for the race team
and their telemetry. Now we
can go back and look at it
all and hopefully we can
come back with a good
package."

don said it's not really fair
comparing the Brickyard or
Grand Prix with the tradi-
tion-rich Indy 500.
"As much as I love this
race and am glad that I've ,
won here, I still don't com-
pare those wins to what
those guys have done in the
Indy 500," he said. "Same
way I kind of look at the Fl

Gordon was again forced
to address his spin-out of
Matt Kenseth at the USG
Sherlock 400 at
Chicagoland Speedway,
which led to his third victo-
.ry of the season. Both loved
and loathed nationwide,
Gordon's actions led fans to
shower the track with debris
after he took the checkered
flag. Even following a phys-
ical confrontation with
Kenseth at Bristol Motor
Speedway back in March,
Gordon said it wasn't exact-
ly how he wanted to win,
but that it's still just racing.
"My thoughts haven't
changed, I take full respon-
sibility for it," Gordon said.
"I know that I didn't inten-
tionally intend to wreck
him. I also know that I had
a great run on him, we were,
running down to the final
laps, and he'd already
shown me the sign a couple
of times how hard he was
going to fight for the posi-
tion. I definitely stepped the
aggressiveness up,there a
notch, and obviously I got
into him and spun him. I
didn't mean to spin him."
While Gordon was at
IMS, news broke that Indy
Cr di i\ er Danica Patrick ist
considering q r ve to. :I.;
NASCAR. It's a st- itch that
the four-time series champi-
on indicated is easier said
than done.
"Any time that some-
body's gone from a high-
downforce, open-wheel,
rear-engine car and moves
to the stock car, there's a
huge transition period there
that some people adapt to
and some people don't,"
Gordon said.-"No matter
what, you don't adapt to it
quickly, not on the ovals.
"I think it would be great.
Anything that helps the
sport draw more fans and
bring more excitement and
have a storyline like what
she's brought to the IRL -
everybody's seen what she's
done for the IRL."

Well How dee doo... ugh
.. not so good on the scal-
lops. I fear just isn't a good
year so far? maybe it
will improve. Some folks
did manage a few gallons,
but the average was a gal-
lon or less. The water is
clear real clear, yet the scal-
lops are scarce?
Oh well, on to fishing!
I had four great days of
fishing for Starke Hudson's.
kinfolks, in-laws, friends
and crews who were down
for the fourth. Here are our
results:
Saturday, I took Lee and
his son, Jordan Crowe, and
Lee's sister Tracy White, all
of Bogart, Ga. and we
brought in 16 trout with
three over 20 inches long.
We also had a Spanish and
a Blue. We fished with live
pinfish under Cajuns in 3.5
- 5.5 feet of water.
Sunday, I had April
Crowe and Josh Clifton.
with Clayton Wilson of
White Plains'and Acworth
Ga. respectively, and about
two hours into the trip
April jumped .. No, let's
rephrase that.'.. a tarpon (a


July 7
BIG ONE! 180+ pounds!)
jumped her bait then
scorched by the boat and
tail-walked about 30-40 feet
then went back down. I
rushed to the front of the
boat and said, "April, that
fish is on your line girl,
raise your rod! Quick! Raise
the rod!"
Well, All seven-plus feet
of that Tarpon came out of
the water and was six feet
clear! It was over as soon as
it started! Two casts later
April lost a trout about 4-5
pounds, So a cast later, she
boated one five pounds and
27 inches long! As my Dad-
dy would say..."Rather be
lucky...than good?" We
ended up with eight trout,
two Spanish, a Blue and a
black sea bass. Oh, did I for-
get to mention Josh hooked
up on a 80+ pound six-foot
long bull shark and fought
it for over 45 minutes 'til
the line broke? (twisted in
two due to "overzealous-
ness"). We landed all we
did on live pinfish under
Cajuns in 3-6 feet of water.
Monday, I took Nancy
and Steve Bishop with


Gene White, all of Bogart
Ga. and they managed five
trout and nine Spanish
mackerel to five pounds.
We caught the trout on live
pinfish under Cajuns and
used little pogies, two actu-
ally (dead) on the hook un-
der the Cajun to catch-our
Spanish.
Tuesday, the Fourth, I
had Lee and Jordan Crowe
with granddad, Herman
Crowe and they caught 19
trout with four over 20-
inches long, which weighed
in at 37.5 pounds total.
That included a five, and a
4.25 lb. and two over three,
pounds. We caught our fish
on live pinfish under 2.5-
inch oval Cajuns. Three of
the keepers, Jordan caught
on pinfish strips (shiner
tails) under a Cajun. This
fine catch came from 4.5 -
5.5 feet of water.
Larry Hendrick of Tifton,
Ga. reported catching 30
keeper-trout (kept five) on
Berkley Gulp from 7-8 feet
of water on Saturday July
first!
Offshore: no report?
That's it!


US Coast Guard activates Rescue 21


The US Coast Guard has
begun using a new com-
mand, control and com-
munications system
known as Rescue 21, for
search and rescue, marine
environmental protection
and homeland security
missions along the Alaba-
ma, Mississippi and Flori-
da coastlines.
Advanced direction-
finding capability, a 'riti-
cal component of 'Resci e
21, allows Coast Guard
watchstanders to more ac-
curately locate the source
of a distress call. That ca-
pability also allows the
Coast Guard to locate the
source of hoax calls. Res-
cue 21 also includes a net-
work of towers to help re-
duce coverage gaps in
coastal areas and ensure
more calls get through to
the Coast Guard.
"The system provides a
revolutionary leap in en-
hanced command, control,
and communications capa-
bilities," said Capt. Dan
Abel,.. Rescue 21 Project
Manager. "Given our long
and proud history of
standing the watch, such
leading edge technology
will radically improve the
efficiency of search and
rescue operations and of-
fers interoperability with
other federal, state and lo-
cal law enforcement agen-
cies, and with first respon-
ders across all rescue or
homeland security mis-
sions in the coastal area,"
he said.
Proving its mettle. fol-
lowing hurricanes Katrina.
and Rita, is the Disaster
Recovery System (DRS), a
critical component of Res-
cue 21. A fully au-
tonomous, rapidly deploy-
able emergency communi-
cations package, it pro-,
vides voice and data con-
nectivity if a man-made or
natural disaster destroys
the existing communica-
tions infrastructure. The
DRS connects to the Coast
Guard Data Network
(CGDN+) via satellite
communications. For six
months, it reliably provid-
ed one-way communica-
tions with mariners, in the
southeastern portion of the


Mississippi River and Gulf
Coast region. Currently,
four systems are staged in
Huntsville, Ala. for quick
deployment.
The National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Admin-
istration has predicted
eight to 10 hurricanes in
the Atlantic for 2006; at
least half of which are ex-
pected to be the strength of
,Category Three storms.
Currently, four of ihe ae-
ployable systems are
staged in Huntsville, Ala.,
for Gulf Coast response ef-
forts.
"The Rescue 21 system
has been accepted at an es-
pecially critical time of
year in the Gulf States,"
said Abel. "It provides vi-
tal technology to increase
the capabilities of our
Coast Guard crews at a vi-
tal time when summer
search and rescue pace in-
creases and tropical storms
or hurricanes put mariners
and coastal residents at
risk.".
A $730 million acquisi-
tion project and the second
largest within the Coast
Guard, Rescue 21 will re-,
place the Coast Guard's


aging National Distress
and Response, System,
built during the 1970s.
Once fully implemented,
Rescue 21 will cover 95,000
miles of US coastline and
inland Waterways.

SBy Hank Parker
Throughout the history,
sailors have used plenty of
things to help them find
their way around the wa-
ter. Whether they navigat-
ed by, the stars or land-
marks (if they were within
sight of land) or other
primitive instruments,
they used these tools of-
ten to a great degree of
success to ensure safer,
quicker travel.
These days, with the ex-
ception of some of the
country's bigger lakes,
most
Freshwater anglers
aren't out of sight of land.
Usually we find our way
around the lake by recog-
nizing coves, marinas,
boat docks, houses, etc.
But when it's dark, foggy
or the lake is too big or too
strange to find your way
around, what then? Like
the sailors of the past, we
must become proficient
with the navigational tools
that are at our disposal.
And in addition to being
able to find your way back
to the boat launch in the
dark, it can also help your
fishing..
Technological advances
of the past decade have
brought abotit many af-
fordable forms of GPS
(global positioning sys-
tem) to our boats. My
Ranger bass boat came
with one from the factory,
and if yours didn't, you
can pick them up at almost

any sporting goods store.
The GPS is guided by a se-
ries of satellites that circle
the earth, each with a dis-
tinctive signal. The. signal
is sent by the satellites to a
receiver (the unit mounted
on your boat). The receiver
will then be able to tell you
your location on earth
with up to 15 feet of accu-
racy.
The obvious reason for
such a tool is peace of
mind. Whether your GPS
unit comes preloaded with
maps of various lakes or if
you have tb purchase the
maps separately, once you
launch your boat, your
GPS system will allow you
to store your current loca-
tion as a waypoint (most
models allow you to name
the waypoints with names
like "launch" or "home").
By following your trail
back to this waypoint (re-
member in the dark to
keep an eye on your depth
finder so that you do not
run aground or into obsta-
cles in shallowwater), you
can successfully navigate
your way back to the
launch in darkness or in-
clement weather. Also,
some detailed lake maps
will show you such things.
as marinas and restau-
rants.
In addition to providing
navigation help,,GPS sys-
tems can also be powerful
fishing aids. Detailed
maps on some boat-
mounted GPS units also


show water depth and bot-
tom contours. This infor-
mation is critical when
searching for bottom
structure that holds fish.
Also, you can set a way-
point on your GPS
to mark any spot that
you might want to return
to fish at a later time. Thil
is perfect for marking
channels or other areas 6i
even marking things like
shipwrecks, which cain
hold lots of fish but can
also hang up a lot of your
tackle. Often,. if I catch.,a
fish in a certain area, I will
mark the exact position of
my Ranger boat so I cani
return to the spot whei
the conditions are similar(.
Most tournament anglers
manage their competition,
days on the water in much,
the same way.
There's no limit to the
things you can do with a
GPS on your boat.
Whether it's navigation,
fish/structure finding or
accurately measuring your
speed, a GPS is more than
a luxury these days. If
your bass boat didn't
come with one from the
factory, make getting one
a priority and learn all you
can about it. Once you
learn all it is capable Of,
you find it as invaluable as
I do.'

Americans


Continued From Page 1B

Mendoza.
For the tournament, Team
USA hit .453, while American
pitchers allowed opponents to
hit just .148 while posting a
0.41 earned run average.
The strong performance
proved the United States is
again atop the international
softball world, a title that was
in doubt after the U.S. team fell
to Canada and then Japan in
the championship game of last
year's World Cup.


"We worked hard this year,"
Jung said. "Last year, we just
kind of came together and went
out and played. We learned
from that. We practiced harder
and worked more together
leading up to this."
The sixth-largest crowd in
ASA Hall of Fame Stadium
history turned out to watch the .
Americans win, the 6,234 fans
having to find standing-room-
only space wherever they
could.
"For a lot of us, and I know
I've said it a lot, but we wanted


to come in and play well for
this crowd," Mendoza said.
"We wanted to come in and
prove ourselves. We were a lit-
tle better prepared this time
around and more mentally pre-
pared for (Ueno)."
Ueno ran into trouble in the
first inning, when two errors al-
lowed Mendoza to come up
with two runners on. She sin-
gled in Caitlin Lowe, and
Natasha Watley then scored on
a passed ball. In the fourth in-
ning, Nuveman and Jung took
the Japanese ace over the cen-


ter field wall for solo home
runs.
Ueno was pulled before the
start of the fifth inning. Her re-
placement, Yuko Endo, allowed
Duran to blast a shot over the
Left field fence in the sixth in-
ning to complete the United
States' scoring.
"Last year, it had been two
years since we sav (Ueno), and
she had gotten bigger and
stronger," Mendoza said.
"This time we were ready for
her."
The Americans outscored -


opponents 59-3 in six games,
and Mendoza was the catalyst,
hitting .611 for the tourney
with seven runs scored, 11 hits,
three home runs and 16 RBIs.
Jung led the team with a .615
batting average and went deep
twice.
Osterman and Tennessee
pitcher Monica Abbott both
finished 2-0 for the Americans.
Next up for Team USA is a
trip to Beijing, site of the 2008
Olympics,.for the 2006 World
Championships, Aug. 27
through Sept. 5.


"The World Championships
are a completely different
thing," Jung said. "Both (the
World Cup) and the World
Championships are important,
but over there, you don't know
what you're going to eat every
day, you don't know the coun-
try. You don't have the fans
that we were able to have here.
It's a different atmosphere."
Next year's World Cup is
back at ASA Hall of Fame Sta-
dium July 12 through July 16.

In ancient times, there seemed to be an
intimate connection between words and things,
or between names and the persons or things
being named. For example, in the Genesis
account of creation, God creates by mere
divine utterance. He says, "Let there be light,."
and there is light. Likewise, when God gives
Adam the honor of naming the animals, he is
allowing Adam to establish their identity once
and for all. Or consider the story in the
27th chapter of Genesis where thinking
that Jacob is in fact Esau, Isaac
mistakenly gives Esau's firstborn
birthright to Jacob. And, even
when Isaac realizes the mistake,
and sees that he has been
tricked, he cannot simply undo
what he has said. The
utterance of the blessing is the
blessing, in the same way that
God's divine utterance created
the world. Continuing in the New
Testament, we see this strong
connection between words and things. In the
prologue to the Gospel of John, we are told
that "In the beginning-was the Word, and
the Word was with God, and the Word was
God." (John 1.1) In modern times
although we have somehow lost this vital
O connection to our language, we all know
that words are double-edged swords which
can heal as well as they can hurt, offering both
comfort and solace, as well as pain..


: For the word of God is living and active,
Sharper than any two-edged sword.

Protected agric
By .Chuck Woods, 352-392-0400; Source(s): Dan Cantliffe,
djc@ufl, 352-392-1928, ext. 203 cell; Emil Belibasis, emil@beli-
farms.com, 386-963-4556
With a few taps on a computer keyboard, University of Florida
researchers can control just about every aspect of growing vegeta-
bles and other high-value crops in greenhouses that protect plants
from pests and diseases-boosting yields by 10 times over field-
grown production.
"It's all part of the growing trend toward precision, high-tech
agriculture in Florida," said Dan Cantliffe, who leads the Protected
Agriculture Project at UF's Institute of Food arid Agricultural Sci-
ences. "The project demonstrates how vegetable and fruit crops can
be produced on a year-round basis not just when weather condi-
tions or market windows are favorable for Florida growers."
He said the computerized project, which covers one acre, reduces
labor requirements and automates everything from plant nutrients
in drip irrigation systems to temperature controls in the greenhous-
es. The amount of phosphorus, nitrogen and other plant nutrients
needed by each crop can be precisely controlled by the computers.
Greenhouse operations at the Plant Science Research and Educa-
tion Center in Citra can also be monitored and controlled by UF
computers in Gainesville, 20 miles from the site.
For those who say the protected agriculture system is too expen-
sive, Cantliffe said the greenhouses can be constructed for $2 to $4
per square foot -far less than the cost of a new home.
Unlike existing hydroponic greenhouse structures that require
substantial investments in heating and cooling systems, the Protect-
edAgriculture Project relies on passively,ventilated greenhouses for
greater energy efficiency, Cantliffe said. The automated greenhouse
. production system requires no pesticides and recycles water and
fertilizers solving several major problems facing the state's $1.6
bi lhon fi u:t and vegetable industry.
"For example, it will help growers who are increasingly con-
Scemed about more state and federal regulation of water,, fertilizer
and pesticide-." said Cantliffe, a professor and chairman of UF's
horticultural sciences department. "It will also solve problems as-

culture project boosts crop yields


sociated with the recent federal ban on the use of methyl bromide,
a widely used soil fumigant to control soil pests."
He said the sustainable farming system will also eliminate or
minimize worries about freezes, drought and other weather prob-
lems. The greenhouses can be built almost anywhere in the state, re-
ducing problems associated with urbanization and loss of prime
* farmland in South Florida. "Growing crops in a protected green-
house environment will make Florida producers more competitive
against imports from other areas in the world," Cantliffe said. "If
the vegetable industry in Florida is going to prosper and grow, there
is a clear need for these new greenhouse production technologies."
He said Florida vegetable production now involves intensive pro-
duction practices on more than 230,000 acres. Crops such as toma-
toes, peppers, cucumbers, strawberries and watermelons account
for 61 percent of the state's vegetable crop value, and the new pro-
tected agriculture system could allow growers to produce more of
these crops-with higher plant densities-on a year-round basis.
S"Production of crops such as blueberries, eggplants and squash
could also be increased, along with the 'production of new crops
such as the Galia muskmelon, which is widely produced in Spain
and Israel; Morocco, Turkey and other Middle Eastern countries
and shipped to Europe where consumers pay top prices for this
excellent-tasting melon," Cantliffe said.
"Considering the fact that vegetable culture in Florida is a al-
ready a highly technological business involving several high-cost
inputs such as polyethylene mulch, drip irrigation, fertilizer and
pesticides, this new system will be cost efficient and sustainable
over the long term," Cantliffe said. "Almost one third of Florida
vegetables, including all tomatoes, strawberries, peppers,. egg-
plants and most melons, are produced on plastic mulch, and near-
ly half of all the crops grown on mulch have drip irrigation."
While the passively ventilated greenhouse structures can pro-
tect crops from wind and rain, they also can protect crops from in-
sects when fitted with insect-exclusion screens. Therefore, these
greenhouse srnilcires can reduce the need for pesticides, he said.
Cantliffe said the greenhouse structures-also known as plasti-
culture systems-could include the use
Sof soil-less culture for crop produc-
tion. One example would be bag or
Container production using inert me-
dia such as perlite, vermiculite, peat
or coconut fiber. Pine bark, which .is
an inexpensive and renewable re-
source, can also be used.as a growing
medium.
"With soil-less culture in green-
S.houses, winter vegetable production
would not depend, on warm; sandy
/ soils of southern coastal Florida," he
said. "In addition, the loss of methyl
bromide would be less troublesome if
a portion of the vegetables could be
S grown in soil-less culture under a pro-
Stective structure."

plant densities and year- Mle\lco and Japan. He said producers
(AP Photo by Thomas Wright) in these countries face some of the


same challenges as Florida growers.
"The Protected Agriculture Project provides much-needed
information for hands-on training and demonstrations so that
Florida producers can examine, work and train in this new agri-
cultural business environment," Cantliffe said.
Thenew greenhouse technology being demonstrated at Citra
has already been adopted by Beli Farms in Wellborne and sev-
eral other Florida vegetable growers. Emil Belibasis, owner of
the farm that grows tomatoes on the vine and mini-cucumbers
in four acres of greenhouses, said the new structures are natu-,
rally ventilated with overhead retractable shade.
"We use pine-bark pots and coconut-fiber slats for the grow-
ing medium, with one row of pots for two rows of crops," Be-
libasis said. "Recently, we installed a computerized environ-
ment controller and a weather station to better control the
greenhouse environment. It controls fans, pads, heaters, cur-
tains, shade and irrigation."
He said the new structures also have improved environmen-
tal controls for managing disease. Use of insect screens, soaps,
specialized equipment and cultural practices for insect control
has helped reduce the need for pesticides.
