THE DRY RAIN.

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
/ Did you ever hear a man exclaim
in a strong nasal, gutteral sort OF
voice, 81 never had such a cold in
my life!"
Well, hat man fOrgets the sneezings
and sore throat he had, probably, only
"a short time ago. And it is well we
forget our Affections. l wager he has
not forgot the pleasures of a year
Iago!
Now, let's see about this dry rain
we are having and about which we
hear EXPLANATIONS, daily, MY, | never
saw it so dry" We will examine the
statistics of the past few years for
the months of October and November
as they seem to be the dry months for
this season of the year.
In 1906 we had for these months
0.8S and 0.45 respectively or a total
of 1873 inches; in 1905 we had OBJ
and 0.60 a total of or inches; just
0.36 less than we had in 1906. In 1904
we had an excess in these months, be
ing 1854 and 2.45, a total of Cos
inches, also in 1902 we had an excess
being 6.26 and 2. 81 or a total of 9.O7
inches, while in 1903 and 1901 were
again normal, being O.36 and 1.20, a
total of 1.56 for 1903 and O.41 and LIS
total of 159 for 1901. If We include
September, this year will show a little
| less than either of the other years
with 1903 as the next lowest.
We also hear theories, Mr.. Editor
about the temperature; that because
it was very hot, or a long and heated
! summer we must, necessarily, have
cold winter-or because, in the first
! half of the year, We had an excess Of
rain we must have a cold winter
These are mere guesses which any
one can make and about next May we
can tell who comes the nearest.
I In the meantime l would advise PEG
pie to Jog their memories" a little
before they say they never say it Sc
dry"

A Beautiful Horse.

Mr.. Richard S. Hall has just pur
chased one of the prettiest horses
that perhaps has ever been shipped
to Florida, certainly the prettiest one
ever seen in Ocala. With the excep
ton of one foot, which is white, it is
a perfect bay, and is named Royal
Whitefoot." The animal is city broke
and. though spirited, is perfectly gen
tie and can be driven by a woman.
Mr.. Hall, who is a splendid judge OF
horses. says that this one is in all re
spects the most perfect animal that
he has ever seen and believes will
take the blue ribbon at any fair. The
animal is a beautiful driver as we can
testify. Everybody is complimenting
Mr.. Hall upon his handsome purchase
The horse cost him an even thousand
dollars.
