Popcorn meals and the manufac-

part of the exhibit, and two kinds
Of lime rock, the one for making lime
and the other for building blocks and

Mr.. Pleas says that he is familiar
with the agricultural possibilities Of
other sections of the county and he
knows that the staple crops may be
just as profitably grown here as in the
north and west and that the truck
farming and citrus fruit culture will
soon become great money crops for
this western section of Florida.
In addition to the Jackson county
exhibit Mr. Pleas has an individual
booth of similar articles as the county
exhibit contains. This he feels sure
will capture the individual display
prize and he has an idea that the
county prize will so to Jackson county
this year.

EXCELLENT ONE

THE EXHIBIT AT THE FAIR AND
1T is ATTRACTING MUCH AT.
TENTIoN.

More than two thousand packages
and nearly nine hundred different ar
tfcles make up the Jackson county
exhibit at the Interstate Fair, which
is one of the most attractive asri-
cultural displays ever shown in the
south.
The exhibit is in charge of r. J
Pleas and Mrs. Pleas, of the R. J.
Pleas Farm, and, In ract, almost the
entire exhibit is from that one farm
and as this is the second season in
Florida for the Pleas people the dis
play is one that will convince the
prospective settlers what may be done
in West Florida by northerners who
would plant in the south.
Artistically arranged, the exhibit is
one which catches the eyes of the
hundreds of the visitors to the agri-
cultural building. Mr.. Pleas is ar
affable, entertaining gentleman and
takes pleasure in giving all of the in
formation he can to the inquirine
ones.
Asked what ne considered the most
important exhibit, and what kind OF
crops were best suited to the West
Florida SOIL Mr.. Pleas pointed to his
the Varities is best suited to this sec
ton, they all thrive" he said.
I'VE have everything displayed here
that can be successfully brown here
except wheat" he said. I'VE could
have had that too for there are some
fine fields of it in Jackson county, but
we had to leave in a hurry to get here

exhibit may be seen As varieties o.

Special TO The Journal

washington, Nov. S.-From figures
just compiled here it has been brought
to light that the citizens of the United
States hold the unique record of ad-
ministrating so.oeo.0oo lickings every
day. This does not mean, however.
that s0,0oo.0 900 persons engage in daily
personal encounters, or that the
parental slipper is brought into use
thirty million times every twenty-fo four
hours. The lickings are administered
by the citizens of the country to moth
ing more bellicose than the humble
postage stamp
Appropriately enough the establish
ment of this record comes on the
SEVENTEEN anniversary Of the introduc-
ton Of postage stamps. Twenty years
ago the average number of stamps
used daily was only about 10000, 600
so that within two decades their use
was trebled until now the stamps used
in single day, laid end to end, would
reach ATS miles or half way from New
York to Chicago, while the number
used In a year would stretch about
175,O00 miles, or seven times around
the earth. No other nation comes
anywhere near approaching this
record. Incidentally 1t establishes
Americans as the worlds greatest let
ter writer's with an average of some
thing over four epistles a week sent or
received.
HISTORY Is or INTEREST.
Small and apparently incense
uuential as the postage stamp is. its
history and development are full of
interest. Although practically un
chronicled it has played an important
part in the development of the country.
Just seventy years ago, that is in
1871, 1t began its career. OF course
there had been stamps used in this
country since pFe-revolutionary days
but these were tax stamps and the
like. Last year. just before arriving at
an age of three score and ten. how
ever. no less than IL $3.50. 1885, postage
stamps of all kinds were issued with
q total value of more than $500, 900, 600.
In the light of these figures, it Is in
feresting to note that in the annual
report Of the postmaster general for
1879 the sale OF 554.oo0,0oo stamps

row At sundOwn, Casey. you take COM
mand and blow II to hell without me!'
So, Obadiah Price. II there's treach-
cry"
The old man clutched at his hands
with insane f1erceness.
There will be no trcachc-y. Nat, I
swear to God there will be no treach-
cry! Come, we will go"
Still Captain Plum hcsitated.
-Who are you? Whom am I to
follcw?"
"A member Of our holy Council of
Twelve, Nat, and lord high treasurer
of his majesty, King Strang!"
Before Captain Plum could o
from the surprise of this whispered
announcement the little old man had
freed himself and was pattering aw.
fully through the darkness of the
next room. The master of the IT,
phoon followed close behind him.
Outside the councillor hesitated for q
moment. as II debating which route
to take. and then with a prodigious
wink at Captain Plum and a throatful
OF his inlmitable ~chuckles, chose the
path down which his startled visitor
OF a short time before had fed. For
Is minutes this path led between
thick black walls OF forest verdure.
Obadiah Price kept always a few
PAGES ahead Of his companion and
spoke not a word. At the end of
perhaps half a mile the path entered
into a large clearing on the farther
side Of which Nathaniel caught the
glImmer Of a light. They passed close
to this light, which came from the
window OF a large square house built
Of logs. and Captain Plum became
s1ddenly conscious that the air was
filled with the redolent perfume of
lilac. With half a dozen quick strides
he overlook the councillor and caught
him by the arm.
Il smell lilac!" he exclaimed.
"Certainly, so do l." replied Obadiah
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1911-01-27

Price. I'VE have very fine lilacs on
the island"
And | smelled lilac back there"
continued Nathaniel, still holding to
the old mans arm. and pointing a
thumb over his shoulder. x smelled
'en back there, when"
"Ho. no, ho.' chuckled the councillor
softly. Il don't doubt it, Nat, I don't
doubt it. She is very fond of liiacs.
She wears the flowers very often"
He pulled himself away and Cap
tain Plum could hear his queer
c%huckling for some time after. Soon
they entered the gloom of the woods
again and a little later came out into
another clearing and Nathaniel knew
feet. The lights OF a few fishing
boats were ~twinkling in the harbor.
but for the most part the town was
dark. Here and there a window shone
like a spot Of phosphocescent yellow
in the dismal gloom and the great
beacon still burned steadily over the
home of the prophet.
"Ah. it is not time" whispered
Obadiah. at is still too early" He
drew his companion out of the path
which they had followed and sat him
self down or a hummock a dozen
yards away from it. inviting Nathaniel
by a pull of the sleeve to do the
same. There we're three of these
hummocks. side by side, and Captain
Plum chose the one nearest the old
man and waited for him to speak.
But the councillor did not open his
lips. Doubled over until his chin
rested almost upon the sharp points Of
his knees. he gazed steadily at the
