where the boys outnumbeTed the

good indication. He spoke in exceed

his modesty. He knew him and would
not say it if he did not feel it and
knew that it were true. He also i'm

name that fitted him and worked right

his half hours talk yesterday not a

Why, he asked. was England jeal-

The speaker also cited the example
of New England. Her people. subject

Ocala is like Atlanta-she has got
to have everything going. She now
has well-developed case of pellagra.
She, however, did not originate it, nor
does she expect to propagate it. All
she expects to do is to cure it and see
that no more cases develop. The
case was sent up from Sarasota to the
prison hospital, near here, and the vic
tim is a negro man. The case excited
considerable interest, and several doc
tors, upon the invitation of DR.. Bitch,
went out to make observations.

Mr. A. Z. Delouest brought back
with him from Indiana several sam
Piles of corn, which he is exhibiting at
the banking house of Messrs. Munroe
and Chambliss. The specimens are
very fine and embrace several varie-
ties. His aim in bringing the corn back
with him is to get the seed distrib-
uted among our farmers, and thus
become a benefactor. We are glad to
see the interest that there is in the
production of corn. 1t means much
for the betterment of our county.
