Biggest Land Deal on Record.

One of the biggest land deals on
record has been contaminated, in
which W. E. Windy, of Fulton coun-
ty, Georgia, becomes the owner of
over zoe, 600 acres OF valuable timber
land.
These are the lands recently sold
by the United Land Company to the
Consolidated Naval Stores Company,
together with the private holdings of
Mr.. B. Beacham, in the southern
part of Osceola and Brevard counties.
The land is one continuous body,
and contains 7O4, 592 acres, and en-
braces the virgin timber ridge be-
tween the Kissimmee river on the
west. and the St. Johns on the east
The consideration is $780,, 4sO.
divided into the following payments:
$175, 600 cash; $500, 600 in ninety days
and the balance in one and two years.
The consummation of this deal will
undoubtedly mean the building of a
railroad through that section, as it
would be impossible to handle this
body of timber without railroad
transportation.-M News.

Martin, Fla. sfay q, 1905.
Special Correspondence Ocala Banner:
The Easterling Brothers shipped
from Martin the first car of canta-
lOupes. This car, consisting of 425
crates. Was the finest first car ever
sent from Florida. This is the iudg-
ment of the cantaloupe drummers who
saw it loaded. In spite of the tempt
ing offers, even above the price re-
ceived for the Gainesville car that
was shipped after the Easterling car
went rolling into Pittsburg, the car
was consigned to the we'll known
house of M. o. Coggins & Co.
This consignment was as a reward
to Coggins for all tire years of faith
full services he has rendered TO the
Easterlings.
r. w. Kellum, the representative
of the firm is here and pronounces
the broad acres of cantaloupes and
melons on the Easterling plantation
as being the finest he has seen in the
south.
The Knoblock Inn cares for the
transient melon and cantaloupe drum
mers and from the looks of the house
it is getting ready for rushy season.
The Easterlings hope to supply
their old customers east, west and
north with fancy and choice guaran
teed stock, as usual.
The firm has been plucky and in
spite of the disastrous bean season.
the prospects are now bright, for the
continued statement from competent
Judges that on the Easterling planta-
ton is to be seen the finest crop of
melons and 'lopes yet grown and that
there will not be one third of a crop
in other sections, means that their
crop will have the usual preference
and also the commercial benefit of
the natural supply and demand prices.

Please allow me space in your val
liable paper TO ask the Honorable
Board of County Commissioners a
few questions for my information.
see in their last report that they
have called an election to bond the
county for $4,000. Now, if Marion
county is not able to pay $4,000 for
a new court house do we need it at
present? Why do you want to bond
the county for $4,000. when you
have already awarded the contract
for $4S, 600? And why did you give
the contract to this firm in Ocala
when the Jacksonville firm offered to
do the same work for 1000 less?
Now, whose property will it enhance
the value of, if it is the farms of
Marion county is it right for the peo-
pie of the city of Ocala to be taxed
to pay for it, or if it is the city prop
erty is it right for the farmers to be
taxed to pay for it? Is it right to
leave a bonded debt for posterity to
pay?S Can any of you honorable
gentlemen see how Marion county
will be more able to pay 500, 200 for
court house twenty years hence?
If an individual gives his note for
large sum of money to build a fine
house and to commence paying for it
in eleven years, and finish at the end
of twenty years, if he could, and pay
ing per cent interest all the time,
would you not think he was a fool?
If so, would it not apply to county
as well?
No doubt you have heard of the
million dollar congress and the bill
lion dollar congress, but did you ever
before hear of the $50, 900 county COM
missioners? or do you expect to be-
come millionionaires in this bond is
sue as Grover Cleveland did?
Will it take $50, 900 court house to
preserve the records?
Now, gentleman, / voted for every
one of you at the general election,
and will you please answer these
questions for my information?
