INDIGNATION MEETING

At an indignation meeting held IN
the board of trade rooms Saturday,
and which meeting was largely at
tended by citizens of Ocala, the under
signed committee was appointed to
meet Immediately with directions to
draft resolutions expressing their in
dignation at the condition of affairs
existing in Ocala caused by the roam
ing at large Of stock. The following
resolutions were drafted:
Whereas, the city of Ocala has suf-
fered in the past very greatly from
the roaming at large OF cattle and
hogs destroying lawns and gardens,
both flower and vegetable; and
Whereas, the Fort King Improve
ment Association and many other citi-
zens, have, at great expense and labor,
improved their lawns and flower gar
dens; and
Whereas, due to the depredations
above cited, these premises have been
seriously damaged; therefore be it
Resolved, That we hereby express
our strongest Indignation that such
conditions should be allowed to obtain,
and we express our determination to
bring such a condition to a finish by
united ana HARMONIOUS dcllOH d. I'LL
zens in appealing for proper protection
from those who have authority TO con-
troll and regulate municipal affairs in
OcaIa. to the effect that they pass or
Idinances increasing the impoundinG
fees to five dollars per head upon all
cattle, hogs or other stock found roam
ing at large in the city.
That in case the municipal authori-
ties fail to do their duty in protecting
citizens from the depredations of stock
roaming at large, we assume the re-
sponsibility and will employ such
means as will rid ourselves of the evil
and protect our premises from further
injury resulting from similar causes.

EARLY PEACHES

With the 1918 peach crop maturing
fully six weeks in advance of the pre-
vious year, Frank Vans Agnew, pre-
mier peach grower of this section, ex-
poets to land his initial shipment of
the luscious fruit in New York City
the latter part of April. The 1912
harvest was not marketed before May
29th, when the first crate was con-
signed to P Ruhlman & Co, New
York commission merchants. This
consignment Melted the grower $3.50,
but the new crop coming over a
month ahead of last years will nat
urally increase the price. Mr.. Vans
Agnew predicts that $40 will be re-
ceiyed for the early harvest. Last
year he sold over a thousand crates,
but conservative estimates for the
present season tend to place the crop
at 1900 crates. He has but five acres
planted to peaches, about $50 trees in
all. Of these coo trees are of the Ear
ly Bidwell variety, having proved to
be the hardest fruit; the balance,
$50 trees, made up of the Angel spe-
cies. Experimenting last summer,
Mr.. Vans Agnew pruned various rows
at different periods, keeping account
of the date of each experiment. From
rows trimmed in July he will receive
the earliest peaches for 1913. In fact,
this process made it possible to mar
ket his crop fully five weeks ahead of
the previous year. This grower has
made speciality of peaches and be-
lieves that they are a better dividend
Garner than oranges and grapefruit.
His estimate of the 1918 crop is plac-
ed at 1900 crates, which will average
s. per crate, or $500 per acre, which
is remarkable return on the money
invested. He will proceed to clear
more ground, intending to set out
larger acreage Journal.

A NEW FUEL

Good news for automobile owners
comes from the old fields of Pennsyl-
vania.
The ever-increasing cost of gasoline
has raised the question, in the minds
of manufacturers mad owners of aa-
tomobiles, whether or not machines
could continue to be run if the price
kept on it's upward way.
While it is difficult to fix the re-
spOnsibility for the continued increase
in the price of the fuel SO necessary
to the propulsion of motors, one of
the reasons is that there is not a
high percentage of gasoline in crude
petroleum-about sixteen per cent,
it is thought.
Now comes an eXperimenter in the
oil regions, one who has the reputa-
ton of being an expert in the produc-
ton of the by-products of crude pc
troleum, and states that he can ex-
tract substance that makes as good
fuel for motor driven vehicles as does
gasoline, and can convert sixty per
cent. of the product into this new
fuel.
This means that while gasoline at
wholesale is selling from eighteen to
twenty-four cents. depending on the
gravity, this new fuel can be sold for
three or four cents per gallon.
The new fuel has been named gas
enc, and the makers of it say that the
new fuel leaves no carbon deposit
and that it can be used in any kind of
a carburetor Let us hope so.-Mi-

Have you broken a heart today

Have you opened a ~half-healed

In a sore and aching breast?
Did you stretch forth a helping hand

Or pass him by with a scornful look
Where he crushed and broken lay?
Have you judged where you had no

When you saw not his battle fought.
Did you compare your easy way

Did you stop with a plying look

Never at one with longing and with

How can we help, in such black

But ask to what sad end that world

Yet. turn we from the sorry seeming
show,
Face the blue seas and the glad

Look inward and confront our naked

Great soul, that from the gutter
looks so highi)

Speaking at a meeting recently, an
English professor told some amusing
stories of quaint sayings attributed
to children which he had collected
from school teachers in various parts
OF the country. Here is a selection:
Teacher. What is a mediator"
Pupil. please. sir. a mediator is

When he once asked a class of girls,
added the professor. what they

sun rise in the west, he got the re-
ply that IL was impossible.
But he persevered, ''supposing
