A special feature of the Marion
County Fair this year will be an ex-
hibit of canned goods put up by the

pickles. chilli sauce, ketchlp and va

tractive, being especially designed
and approved by the United Staues de-
partment of agriculture, none other

also thrown me in contact with the

the girls, they have taken up a work
that was entirely new to us all, and by
their efforts at least four thousand
cans have been saved, and about five
hundred cans of other vegetables.
This is indeed a splendid beginning
of a work that will mean much to our
people.
Mr.. VI. J. Roess has kindly donated
70 the canning club girls the use of
his building, which has heretofore
been used in advertising the wares of
the Ocala Lumber and Supply Com

just north of this building will be so
arranged as to hold outdoor canning
demonstrations during the Fair. Let
me urge every club member to do hes
very best toward making this exhibit

OUTSIDE OPINION AS TO THE
RESULT IN MARION

The victory of the liquor interests
at the recent election in Marion coun.
ty is attributed by many to the I'm
discretion of some over-zealous advo-
Gates of the temperance cause" An
almost vile, abusive circular letter,
addressed to the temperance people,
and purporting to come from the sa-
loon people, was sent through the
mails. The document was immedi-
ately repudiated by the liquor people
and one hundred dollars reward offer
ed for evidence showing who was re-
sponsible for same. The evidence at
least showed that the liquor men
were not guilty and tended to impli-
cate some one advocating the tenn
perance side. This acted, it is said,
as a boomerang against the temper
ance people, as is nearly always the
case in politics, and not a few of the
good people who sincerely hoped to
see Marion county placed in the dry
are blaming some one of
their own number for the failure to
succeed in the last election.-Gaines

Mr.. Frank Walpole has at last dis
posed of his newspaper, the Mana
tee Record, and after twenty-one
years OF faithful. intelligent service,
will retire from the journalistic field.
His father was a journalist before
him. and he imbibed the spirit of
Journalism naturally, and when he
gave to it his undivided attention his
newspaper occupied place in the
front row, and commanded a distinct
i've reputation, but in later years he
has engaged in other and more lu-
crative operations, and has given the
Record but scant attention, and in
consequence it has commanded a less
influential position. Mr.. Walpole will
be succeeded by MIR. and Mrs. Holder
man. who viii strive to place the
Record TO the plane it formerly oc-
cupied.

Colorado Crop Leads All

Although the United States general

cultural crop this year, Colorado will
boom the general average by 10 per
cent. for this state will be able to
show nearly 90 per cent Of normal
production, 10 the opinion of the
United States department OF agricul
ture.
Colorado's yield is expected to reach
500 per cent OF its average for recent
years. Kansas. bordering on the east.
will drop to 5s.7 per cent. owing TO
the continued drouth In that state.
Utah with ss5 per cent, and. South

only other western states approaching

Is claimed that the company paid Its

The 1912 profits were sufficient to

about 500, 900 was placed to dividend
account, this 6oe showing being due
to the high price Of sugar following

State Tax Values

The state tax commission places the
1913 valuation on the property Of Colo.
RADIO at 81, l3O, ,342, l0l. The valuation
last year was s422. $50, 0,1s9. This Is an
Increase Of nearly three times over
last year. All counties. with the ex-
ception Of Denver. Pueblo and Weld,
Increased three times. In Pueblo
county last years valuation was 40 per
cent OF the total cash value 80 that
this years valuation is still correct.
Denver and Weld fell below, according
to the tax commission and steps will
be taken to force them to increase
their values.
This is the Hrst attempt TO place
Colorado on full cash basis. The
assessors have found approximately
ten million dollars worth of property
that was not valued last year. The
mill levy limit that can be assessed
for county purposes forced the county
officials to Increase their values and
to find new property. The law says
that an increase OF not more than Is
per cent can be made this year over
last years cash payment Of taxes.
This will bring approximately $3.50, 600
to the state for the biennial period.
This being the first time the new law
has been put into effect, It's tinal solu.
tion and It's success or failure will be
watched with interest.-Exchange.

Means.

A good breakfast, good appetite
and good digestion mean everything
to the man, woman or child who has
anything to do, and wants to get
good start toward doing it.
A Mo. man tells of his wife's good
breakfast" and also supper, made out
of Grape-Nuts and cream. He says:
Il should like to tell you how much
good Grape-Nuts has done for my wife.
After being in poor health for the last
IS years, during part of the time
scarcely anything would stay on her
stomach long enough to nourlsh her,
finally at the suggestion of friend
she tried Grape-Nuts.
Now, after about four weeks on
this delicious and nutritious food. she
has picked up most wonderfully and
seems as well as anyone can be.
Every morning she makes a good
breakfast on Grape-Nuts eaten just as
it comes from the package with cream
or milk added; and then again the
same at supper and the change in her
is wonderful.
I'VE can't speak too highly Of
Grape-Nuts as food after our re-
