FOR A MARION COUNTY FAIR

To the People Of Marion County;
At a meeting of citizens OF Marion
county, held in OcaIa, September /,
1903, the question of holding a coun-
" fair was discussed. 1t was the
unanimous conclusion Of those in at
tendance that as an educator TO the
farmers, merchants and business men
generally a collection of the diversi-
fed products OF the soil and industries
of ourselves and neighbors would re-
suit in great benefit, not only by slim
ulating a friendly rivalry among the
tillers Of the soil, but as an object les
son (tO the stranger within our
gates') of the resources and fertility
of our Heaven-favOred land. 1t was
therefore decided TO hold a fair in
OcaIa some time during the coming
winter.
In order to perfect an organization
meetings have been called for Tues
day, October 6, 1903. at 10 a N. and
1870 p. m, to be held at the court
house in Ocala. We ask you to be
with US and give your support to place
our county where it beIongs-the ban
ner county of the state.
Respectfully,
DAVID s. WILLIAMS, Sec.

Conditions warrant an early improve

should be brought within five days Of

care for and develop our fresh fruit

An effort was made by this Chamber
to interest the United Fruit Company
in the development of our fresh fruit
trade by establishing line of swift
passenger steamers between Honolulu
and San Francisco. Complete data con-

sent to the company, which still has

continuance of this prosperity during
