After the business meeting at which several matters of importance were discussed the members present took part in q very interesting drill as Phoenix Go. is determined to win the cup offered by General Rover for the best drilled company in the Salt River valley and it is up to every member to be present at our weekly drills.
 lt is very gratifying to notice the new interest taken by the mem 5ers and il is hoped that the good work will continue.
 There will be a drill held on Sun day afternoon January 26, 1913. at 3 D. m. in the armory and all mem bers who can attend are requested to do so as it is important that we do little extra drill in order to make ourselves more familiar with the work
 All Sir Knights who wish to join the uniform rank are requested to get in touch with the recorder who will be glad to give them all necessary in formation. This should interest the men who have lately joined the subordinate lodge as we feel certain that there are a number of ambi- uous young men just waiting to be asked to join the uniform rank K P.

The people OF this community are
not proscriptive in their attitude to
strangers settling in their midst; but
extend a welcome to all coming here
to live, regardless of what section of
the Union they hail from. There are
no cliques or factions here or family
feuds that array one household against
another, creating discord and bicker-
irgs in the community; but coinmun-

amicably as carried on in the best dis

Other Interesting Facts.
While the flora is not very varied,
it is interesting and attractive. The
forest and meadows are fragrant with
the odor of numerous wild flowers,
during the create rpart of the year.
The bewitching flower of the majestic
magnolia and the fragrant blossom of

prominence in the landscape during
the spring and earl ysummer.
The odorous blossoms of the honey

eye on every hand. while the sarannas

While the virgin timber has been

size are found in numbers and oaks

grow here. For fuel and building pur-

The edible berries that are found

in the woods by all who desire.
Good free stone water bubbles up

SIM OTIS HAS
HELPED MULAT
MILL MAN WHO OWNS AND
OPERATES MOST IMPORTANT
INDUSTRY Is A LIVE WIRE.

Mr. Sim Otis came to Mulat about
fifteen years ago and established him
self in tie sawmill business Shortly
after his coming here, he had the
misfortune to lose his mill and all
its appurtenances, by FIRE. Although
the blow was severe one, he did not
let il impair his energy, but moved 70
Bay Point, where he went to work
as mill wright After working there
about three years. he came back TO
Mulat with what money he had saved,
and again established himself here in
the mill business on a small scale.
Understanding the sawnill business,
and by strict attention to 1t, Mr.. Otis
enlarged his plant year by year, until
il has acquired It's present proportions
He never lets misfortunes or adverse
business deals, for a moment, disturb
his activity. Should his mill be de-
stroyed today. he would commence,
tomorrow, to rebuild.
His normal force numbers about so
employees, which number embraces
those working at the mill, and the
force employed in getting timber in
log camps. Besides his sawmin plant
here, Mr.. Otis pays much attention to
the culture of oranges OF which he
has an extensive grove, and to truck
farming, which industry he succeeds In
making profitable. He has done much
to build up Mulat's interests, and Is
always ready to aid those coming here
looking for locations.
Mr.. Otis is very proud OF Mulat and
nothing could induce him to part with
his interests here. He has a beaui-
full home embowered In orange trees,
and under his hospitable roof he is
always pleased to entertain his Wis
iting friends.

FINE LOCATION FOR TRUCK FARM

Pensacola bay with its tributaries,
Escambia and Black Water bays, form
the southwest boundaries of Santa
Rosa county.
The peninsular lying about six miles
northeast OF Pensacola, between Black
Water and Escambia bays, owing to
its unusually accessible location, and
the fertility of its soil, is now attract
ing attention. It contains approx
mately twelve thousand acres, and
was largely taken up in large grants
under the early Spanish rule of Flor
ida.
But little Of it has ever been sub
divided, and sold or otherwise uti-
liked, and it offers unusual advantages

This area of unusually good land ex-
tends nearly to Milton, the county seat.
\ The railroad from Muiat, on Escam
bia bay. 10 Milton on Black Water
river, is approximately it's northwest
boundary. There are several bayous
navigable for small boats, which ex-
tend from one to three miles into this
peninsula, giving it access to Pensa-
cola, by water, and affording fish and
oysters.
Bay Point and Robinson Point, (saw

sort place. are regular boat stops, for

There has been considerable de-
velopment in orange and pecan cul-
ture, notably at Mulat and vicinity,
and at Milton and Bagdad. Pecans
are the most usual shade trees.
About two years ago, some twelve
hundred acres of land, approximately
in the centre of this peninsula, was
purchased and is being developed. In
asnuch as this land was largely Sc
