...Presidential specials, publicity-loving Floridians consoled themselves with a sevencar special of their own last week. As backwoods crowds gathered by the tracks at Jacksonville, Green Cove Springs, Palatka, DeLand, Kissimmee, Tampa, they went aboard to see the candidates for their favor: four heifers, one choice feed steer, one medium steer, one scrub steer, three dairy cattle, one big black Poland-China sow, eight pigs.
