THE OCALA ICE AND PACKING
COMPANY SPREADING OUT

The Ocala Ice and Packing Com
pany is one Of Ocala's recently new in
dustries, and so phenomenal has been
their success that they are again COM
PEELED to spread out and increase the
capacity of their ice plant and cold
storage plant.
Tehy have just ordered, through Mr..
c. H. Behre, of Atlanta, general agent
for the York (Pa.,) Manufacturing
Company, a 30-tOn ice plant, which is
now en- route to Ocala, and will be
put into operation as soon as it is pos
sible to have the machinery installed,
and everything will be in geadiness
for the summer trade. This ice-mak-
ing plant will be used separately from
the one now in operation, and this
company will then be in a position to
fill all orders placed with them, as
they will have one of the largest and
best ice-making plants in the interior
of the state.
Additional factory room will be
built Immediately for the new machin-
cry and the splendid cold storage
plant that this company now operates
will also be considerably enlarged.
They have only been in the cold stor-
age business for a very few years, but
this part of their business has grown
marvelOusly, and Marion county's
splendid farmers have in this plant
something like two hundred thousand
pounds of meat, and the amount of
meat being sent to this plant is in
creasing every month.
Messrs. Meffert and Taylor, the pro-
prietOrs of this business, are two of
Ocala's most progressive and success
full business men, and they are taking
time by the fOrelOck in increasing the
capacity of their two plants, and for
the next few years they will be in a
position to meet every demand made
upon them. They believe firmly in
the future of Ocala and of our county,
and they are evidencing their faith in
a most substantial way, and continued
success is sure to. crown their efforts

same But the commissioners said
that while they We're satisfied with the
truth of what they said that the state

them from giving them any recOgni-
ton that carried with it an apprOpri-
alton. That they most unwillingly
turned down the appeal made to them
to assist the Marion County Fair, and
having declined in that instance IL
would be impossible to do for others
what they refused to do for their

FOR THE ITALIAN; SUFFERERS

The earthquake in Italy and Sicily
: tie most appalling calamity of mod
ern times; indeed it is the most ap-
palling ever known since the world
began, with the exception of the one
at Toxic, Japan, when more than 2OO,-
600 persons lost their lives.
When we were visited By earth
quakes at Charleston and at San Fran
cisco contributions poured in from
generous-hearted persons from all
quarters of the world.
The people living in the vicinity and
in the cities destroyed by the recent
earthquake are exceedingly poor, and
iheir condition appeals to the benevo-
lent-hearted everywhere.
Ocala, quick to respond to the cry of
distress, we hope will not be mute on
this occasion.

ten dollars.
