NEW HOME FOR THE BOARD OF
TRADE

Mr.. J. D. Rooney, the new and eff
cient secretary to the board of trade.
has succeeded in securing new quar-
ters for the Ocala board of trade, and
he proposes to have the same fixed up
in a most attractive style.
The new location is in the Ocala
House block, and just one door from
the old quarters, in the store-room for
merly occupied by Mr.. c. U. Gaines,
who was driven out by the recent fire.
Mr. Malever had secured lease on
this building, but at the earnest solic-
itation of Mr.. Rooney surrendered his
claims to the board of rtade. as he be-
lieved that the location is such an ex-
cellent one that it will rebound to the
favor of the city.
The room will be thoroughly over
hauled, and it will be general head
quarters for those seeking informa-
ton with a view to securing homes.
AS soon as the new home is ready
for occupancy Mr.. Rooney will issue
general invitation for the citizens
generally to visit him and make them
selves known.

The Lakeland Telegram we'll and
pithily says that democrats for rev.
enue only would seem to be the prop
er brand for those members of the
party who will turn their backs on it
because the new tariff bill intends to
redeem the pledge of the party to the
American people, and cut down the
tariff schedules even though special
interests will find their profits trim
med in the process. We can have no
tariff reform in this country without
pinching democratic as we'll as repub-
lican interests, if those interests lie
in the pathway of such reform and
citrus fruits can claim no special priv
ilege beyond other items in the tar
iff schedules We can't shut out the
whole world with American markets
for the benefit of a few. We must
take our medicine with the rest if the
country is to get relief from a system
condemned by the people at the polls
last November"

PEACH CROP SUFFERS HALF MIL
LION DAMAGE

A special dispatch to the Atlanta
Journal says:
The peach crop in the Chattanooga
district is damaged to the extent OF
more than 100000. This was the
statement given out by c. A. Lyerly.
owner of the huge orchards at Lyerly,
Ga, who is probably the best posted
man on peach growing in the north
Georgia and Tennessee district
He said that in his opinion the
frost and wet weather had caused the
crop to be damaged more than it has
been for many years. The late frosts
which followed a warm spell are to
blame for the heavy loss that has
been sustained by the growers in that
section.
In the Fort Valley section in North
Georgia, there has been a heavy loss.
One of the growers in that section
said a few days ago that he thought
approximately 20 to IS per cent. of
the crop was destroyed The apple
crop in that section and throughout
Tennessee has been unframed by the
frosts. and a record year is expected.
The high winds from the north
which struck Quitman and Brooks
county last Saturday, still continue
hot
Tuesday at noon had reached its
greatest velocity up to the present,
and although the sun is shining today
there is nothing to indicate the re-
sumption of spring weather.
Farmers from various sections of
the county who have deserted their
plows and come into town to see what
it all means are full of anxiety over
the situation. They bring reports in
which will run far into the thousands
of dollars. Brooks county annually
ships away more than two hundred
cars of oats in addition to using much
more than this for home consumption.
The loss will be very heavy this
year, because of an increased acre
age. 1t is believed thousands of dol
lars will be lost in the blight of the
watermelon crop from the cold wind
of the present week. The plants were
in their tenderset state, and the cold
came at the most critical time for
them.
The leaves, which were two or
three inches long. have been beaten
into fragments against the ground.
and in many fields the total crop is
already beyond rescue, even though
the wind should cease at once and
the weather returns to warm sun
shine and favorable conditions.
Cotton and corn will be greatly de-
layed and the farmers seriously in
jured. The cotton plants are turn
ing white under the blight of the wind
and many fields have been withered
The corn will not suffer any damage
further than backset of ten days
or two weeks. The fruit, to which lit
tie attention is given, as marketable
value in this county has not suffered
any appreciate harm. The pecan in
dustry has not been injured in the
slightest as yet. since it is regarded
as one of the hardest and most GER
tain crops of this section.
