TO.LOCATE IN FLORIDA
: The Miama• (Florida) Dail News
had the following notice:.of a former
Clinton boy. Many here timet Mr.
Fisher' clueing his visit- 'here 016'
Horne Week, and interest was shown
in his new invention:
"Location in Miami of a candy
manufacturing plant, to turn out a
product for ,international consump-
tion, is likely, A. D. Fiche;, inventor
of the Fisher chocolate tube machine
and head of its operating company,
said Tuesday morning, following a
conference with Tom Huston, peanut
magnate.
The conference with Mr. Huston,
now stepping at the Pancoast hotel,
was on the natter of the versatility
of his machine, which now is being
used in manufacture . of certain
Schraff's candies, Mr. Fisher said.
Mr. Fisher is struck with the poten-
tialities of Miami as a candy rearm-
factusing center and believes such a
plant here not only could be used to
supply North America cities,- but.
could enter the South American field
with no difficulty. His patents aro
world wide. ••
Mr. Fisher's invention makes choc-
olate tubes out of hard chocolate and
he says ice .creamemulsion can be
placed in them and shipped to the re-
tailer, afterward to be frozen, thus
doing away with refreezing the
cream. If such a product is placed
on the market. it -will be boosted by
national advertising, and sold at a
popular price and probably by vend-
ing machines."

The subjects of Soils and Fertil-
izers was dealt with by G. A. Me-
Cague, Agricultural Representative..
The rise' of commercial fertilizer is
becoming more popular each year but
in -many eases fertilizers are not
well understood. Different,types of
soils, different varieties of crops -
each require special fertilizers and
unless fertilizer of 'the proper analy-
ols is applied best results cannot be
obtained. The basis el sail fertility
is dependent upon five main factors,
drainage, crop rotation, •lime, -organ-
ie matter and commercial fertilizer.
These points were all dealt with in a
general way. , '
Judging from the discussion.: and
e o the
't' Tamers numerous questions, fa
