Roy Gene Davis is a dedicated servant of Florida agriculture. The owner and operator of two success-ful wholesale nurseries in the Tam-pa area, he is also an undaunted community activist and a generous volunteer. He has worked hard to promote Florida’s agricultural prod-ucts and the industry, and he has mentored many young people inter-ested in agricultural careers. He has been fighting for the rights of farmers, ranchers, and growers for

nearly 50 years. Davis established his first nurs-ery in 1962. Tampa Wholesale Nursery was an immediate suc-cess. Davis bought more land, and soon the nursery boasted 62 acres of woody ornamental plants. In 1979 Davis and his wife, Leta, en-tered into a partnership with Pete and Bette Walker to form Big Tree Nursery. Big Tree was also success-ful, and the Davises bought out the Walkers’ interest in 1992. The demands of running two nurseries did not deter Davis from volunteering in the agricultural community. He has contributed his time, talents, money, plant mate-rial, equipment, and staff to a vari-ety of organizations, including Fu-ture Farmers of America, 4-H, and the Florida State Fair. Each year he donates his services as an auc-tioneer to the American Camellia Society Auction, the Pasco County Youth Plant Sale, and many other charitable events that benefit the nursery industry. In the 1970s he helped FFA and 4-H plan and pro-duce their first Youth Plant Show

and Sale at the Florida Strawberry Festival; this fundraising event now brings in over $40,000 annually. Each spring Davis is in Talla-hassee for the legislative session. He is well known to elected and appointed officials in state gov-ernment and has supported many ag-friendly legislative initiatives, including the Farm Theft Bill, the Bert Harris Act and other prop-erty rights legislation, water mea-sures, and agricultural sales tax exemptions. Davis’s leadership in his com-munity and his industry has won him many accolades. In 1987 the Florida Nurserymen and Growers Association presented him with its highest honor, the Wendall Butler Award for Outstanding Nursery-man of the Year. In 2003 he earned Hillsborough County’s Moral Courage Award, which recognizes Hillsborough County residents who challenge local government bureaucracy. That same year, he received Hillsborough County’s Agricultural Hall of Fame Harvest Award for Lifetime Achievement in

Agriculture. Roy and Leta Davis live in Dover. They have two grown chil-dren, Steven and Michael.

Lillie “Belle” Jeffords was one of Florida agriculture’s most beloved and effective ambassadors. She was totally committed to the advancement of Florida’s cattle industry and had the energy, en-thusiasm, and natural leadership skills to make good things happen for Florida’s farmers and ranchers. Dynamic, tenacious, and downright

feisty, Jeffords fought fiercely to pro-tect and preserve her way of life. Farming was in Jeffords’ blood. She was born in rural Columbia County in 1924 into a large farming family. The 12th of 13 children, she grew up working in the fields along-side her parents and her brothers and sisters. The family didn’t own a tractor and did everything by hand or with the help of a mule. This hard work prepared Jeffords for the chal-lenges that lay ahead. Life was difficult. Her husband, Roy, a farmer in Alachua County, died when Jeffords was only 34, leaving her with four children to raise and a farm to run. Despite a family dispute over the owner-ship of the land and her own medi-cal problems, Jeffords clung to the farm. She farmed up to 500 acres with the help of just one hired man, C.B. Freeman. The hard work paid off; the farm was successful. In 1971 Jeffords and Freeman received a Two-Ton Peanut Production Award from the Florida Cooperative Exten-sion Service. Jeffords was a member of the Alachua County Cattlemen’s As-sociation and the first woman ever elected president of that organiza-tion. In 1982 she became president of the Florida CowBelles’ Associa-tion (now known as Florida Cattle-women). She served on the Florida Soil and Water Conservation Board and the Alachua County Green Belt Task Force and was a member of the Florida Woman’s Club. Jeffords was an unflagging pro-moter of the cattle industry. She was also a vigorous grassroots cam-paign organizer and political activist for her farm and her industry. She fought for property rights and fair taxation and against undo govern-ment regulation, which she feared would cripple agriculture. She or-ganized the first Florida Beef Cook-off, which has since become a major beef promotion event. As district chairman of the state Beef Referen-dum Committee, she traveled across Florida urging cattlemen to support the Beef Check-off Program, which was passed in 1988. Belle Jeffords left Florida agri-culture better than she found it, and the contributions she made to the cattle industry will serve as a last-

ing legacy. She died in 2005 and is survived by her daughters, Martha, Barbara, Diane, and Jan.

James Neville McArthur came to Florida as a young man with nothing but an education and a sterling reputation. Twenty-five years later, he had revolutionized the dairy industry in the Sunshine State, and his reputation remained untarnished. He was known and is remembered as an astute business-man, a forward-thinking innovator, and a philanthropist of uncommon vision, compassion, and generosity. McArthur earned degrees in ag-riculture and education and began his career as the principal of an ag-ricultural high school in Miami. In 1929 after eight years at the high school, McArthur established McAr-thur Jersey Dairy Farms. In the beginning the farm had just 20 cows, and McArthur was bottling the milk and selling it himself door to door. His only employees were a couple of friends who agreed to work for noth-ing more than food and a place to stay. McArthur approached the oper-ation of the farm with a kind of fear-lessness, experimenting with new techniques and working his fingers to the bone. The hard work paid off. His herd grew to 5,000, then 10,000, and for a time the farm was one of the largest privately held and oper-ated dairy farms in the world. Throughout his lifetime, McAr-thur continued to improve and mod-ernize his dairy. He made use of the latest science and technology and pi-oneered many new practices, includ-ing artificial insemination and the use of milking machines. He broke new ground in the management of large herds and in the application of the science of genetics. He opened a state-of-the-art milk-processing

plant in 1951 and acquired a second plant in the 1970s. By introduc-ing modern dairy farming practices and dairy processing technology, he helped Florida become the largest milk-producing state in the South-east. Despite all his success, McAr-thur never lost touch with his core values. He was a generous, very moral man who wanted to share the benefits of his success with others. Through the J.N. McArthur Founda-tion, he donated a million dollars to the University of Miami to build its School of Engineering. He built an athletic dormitory in memory of his father at the University of Mississip-pi and helped fund the construction of a new building for the University of Florida’s College of Veterinary Medicine. He funded the McArthur Hall of Science and Technology at Miami-Dade College and donated 40 acres so a new high school could be built in Broward County. James Neville McArthur died in 1972, but his legacy lives on. The J.N. McArthur Foundation contin-ues to fund education, and McArthur Farms, now 76 years old, remains one of Florida’s largest and most successful dairies, milking 8,500 cows.

Dudley Adelbert Putnam gave his leadership and support to Florida’s agriculture throughout his life. As a pioneering citrus grow-er and cattle rancher in Central Florida, he was active in a variety of efforts having long-term positive effects on the industry. Putnam per-sonified the traits that have made Florida’s farmers and ranchers among the best in the world: He ex-hibited honesty, integrity, a strong work ethic, a solid commitment to family and community, and bound-less love of the land.

Putnam was born in Chicago in 1909 and moved to Central Florida with his family when he was a child. His father had purchased substan-tial acreage at Hesperides in the Lake Wales area near Alcoma dur-ing the Florida land boom. After losing nearly everything he owned in the land bust of the 1920s, Put-nam’s father returned to Chicago, leaving his three sons behind. Putnam scraped together enough money to pay taxes on the Lake Wales property and hold onto it. He saved money, purchased more land, and—little by little, as he could af-ford it—he began planting citrus. Putnam began to raise cattle, too. He was never afraid of hard work, and that’s what it took to see his ranches and groves through such challenges as falling prices, hurricanes, and devastating freez-es. He rebuilt and replanted time and again in the wake of storms and cold weather. He refused to allow himself to become discouraged. Putnam’s business philosophy combined fiscal conservatism with a progressive attitude toward tech-nology. In the 1930s he was one of the first individuals to establish a long-distance trucking company. He started his citrus hauling busi-ness with one restored burnt-out truck, and when the business took off he pioneered the use of tandem-axle trailer trucks for fruit hauling. He went from cross-country ship-ping to citrus processing. With the help of C.E. “Tiny” Williams, he sold shares of stock to establish a state-of-the-art processing plant in Bar-tow. Putnam was not afraid to stand up for the interests of agriculture and was particularly vocal on water and tax issues. During his many years with the Farm Bureau, he spearheaded “out of the box” ideas while lobbying on behalf of farm-ers and ranchers. He worked to help pass the Greenbelt Exemption for Florida agriculture and helped secure a gasoline tax refund for gas used in farm tractors. In Tal-lahassee and Washington, Putnam demonstrated an uncanny ability to bring members of the industry together to fight for the cause of ag-riculture. He was humble when de-scribing his efforts: “I lent my sup-port to anything that was positive

GENERAL ADVERTISING GUIDELINES

The Florida Market Bulletin is published each month by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services and is distributed without charge to Florida Residents who request it. The Market Bulletin is an important way for the Department to disseminate news and information about issues affecting the agriculture industry and the Department’s operations. Through its classified advertising section, the Bulletin provides a forum for Florida residents to buy and sell agricul-turally related items while also giving statewide exposure to small farmers who might not normally have the economic re-sources for such widespread advertising. The Bulletin does not publish commercial or display ads, and all items offered for sale must have been produced or used on the seller’s property. Advertising rules and guidelines have been established for the Florida Market Bulletin in order to comply with regula-tions enforced by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services and to maintain the objectives of the publication. The editorial staff of the Florida Market Bulletin reserves the right to revise or reject any ad. Before submitting an ad for publication, carefully check these general rules and also the rules under the category heading for which your ad is being submitted. Many ads require signed statements or permit numbers. Ads that do not meet applicable rules will not be published. 1. All advertisements must be agriculturally oriented. 2. Only Florida residents are eligible to advertise in the Bulletin. Only Florida products may be advertised. 3. Ads must include your name, address, county, zip code, and telephone number. E-mail addresses will be published if included. 4. No business, trade or commercial names will be accepted. 5. Ads from dealers or agents are unacceptable. A dealer is any person or entity that buys or acquires agricultural livestock, equipment or other merchandise for the purpose of resale; an agent is any person or entity soliciting agricultural merchandise for sale or distribu- tion under the partial or full control of an owner or dealer, farm equipment or machinery outlet, or any other source. 6. Ads must be submitted in writing — either typed or printed clearly — and limited to 20 words, not including required information. The Florida Market Bulletin reserves the right to edit all ads. 7. Ad forms or facsimiles should be mailed, faxed, or delivered to the Florida Market Bulletin office; ads may also be submitted by completing the form on the Florida Market Bulletin’s Internet web site. Facsimiles must include all information required by the ad form. 8. Advertisers may run one ad per category per issue. 9. All items in an ad should pertain to one category only. 10. Ads will be published as space permits on a first-come, first-served basis. 11. A new copy of an ad must be submitted for each issue of the Florida Market Bulletin in which the ad is to run. 12. An asking price should be included for all items offered. 13. Wanted ads soliciting free animals will not be accepted.

Ads for the January issue must be received by December 10

for agriculture,” he said. “When I finished one battle, it was time to take up another. There is always another challenge.” Putnam instilled his love of agriculture in his son and grand-sons. They joined the business and kept it in the family. Today Put-nam Groves and Dudley Putnam, Inc., include more than 800 acres of citrus in Polk County and 5,500 acres of cattle ranches in Polk, Hardee, and Highlands counties.

Charles Raymond “Chuck” Smith has dedicated his very pro-ductive and energetic life to im-proving, promoting, and protecting Florida agriculture. The industry could not have asked for a more pas-sionate advocate. Smith has served agriculture in a variety of capacities, as a county extension agent, a farm manager, and a legislator. In each position he has worked diligently to effect positive change. After graduating from the Uni-versity of Florida in 1953 with a degree in agriculture, Smith ac-cepted a job as an assistant county extension agent in Citrus County. He was promoted to county agent a year later, working in Hernando and Liberty counties. As an agent,

he spent many hours helping rural people as they struggled to combat hog cholera and improve their swine herds. Smith was elected to the Her-nando County Commission in 1966 and served 12 years. In 1967 he became general manager of the Her-nando Egg Cooperative. He spent years helping to promote the use and sale of broilers and eggs. In 1978 he was elected to the Florida House of Representatives, where he served until 1992. During his legislative tenure, he made it his mission to protect agriculture and the natural resources on which the industry depends. He helped create the Market Improvement Working Capital Trust Fund, to be used for the operation and maintenance of agricultural facilities. He also as-sisted in the creation of the Surface Water Improvement and Manage-ment Program, which addresses water quality issues and works to rehabilitate degraded water bod-ies. He wrote the first bill on Ever-glades restoration and helped draft legislation to provide excise tax ex-emption for fuels used in certain ag-ricultural purposes. Smith is a founding member of the Florida Agricultural Coalition and a past president of the Florida Federation of Fairs and Livestock Shows and the Florida Poultry Federation. He is currently serv-ing as executive vice president of the Florida Poultry Federation and director of the Florida Agricultural Hall of Fame Foundation. He is in-volved in the activities of the State Poultry Executives Association and the American Egg Board. Smith lives in Brooksville with his wife, Mildred. They have three grown children – Linda, Randy, and David – and five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
