BAILEY VOICES HIS
CROUCH TO BANKERS
Says Democracy Cannot Change with
the Seasons and He Cannot Ac-
cept Its New Principles.

Washington, D. c., April 5.-Former
Senator Joseph ". Bailey. who dropped
out OF the public eye sinca his retire
ment from congress, got in the lime
light here by an address before the
Washington chapter Of the American
Institute OF Banking Bailey gave
voice to the Crouch" he took with him
when he left congress, and assailed the
body in which ne had served, declaring
that congress is ruled by politicians.
Bailey said: If you offer your advice
to congress, they will take il and settle
il contrary to your advice. There is
not nearly as much wrong in the cur
rency system of the United States as
we are told; the worst trouble is, that
il is perpetUally in partisan politics. II
once taken out of politics, so that each
election would not have to revise poll
cies, our banking system would soon
be without flaws

BEAUTIFUL MlcANoPY ORANGE
GROVE

The writer had the pleasure few
days ago to visit the large orange
and grapefruit grove of John w. and
w. S. Mcdowell, which is located on
a hill overlooking beautiful Tuscawil-
la lake, near Micanopy.
This grove is one of the oldest and
most valuable in this section of Flor
ida, and is easily one of the prettiest.
The tract upon which it is located
comprises over a hundred acres, for
ty of which is devoted to the culture
of fruit. The property was purchased
coupleof years ago by Messrs. Nc
Dowall from Capt. B. w. Fontane, and
the price paid is said to have been
fabulous.
The grove contains more than TWEEN
lty-three hundred trees, including
grapefruit and several of the best va
rieties of the orange, and they are
very heavily loaded with fruit, the
branches of many trees being borne
to the ground by the weight. Expe-
rienced fruit men who have viewed
the grove are positive that the yield
will not be less than 1000 boxes this
fall, and as the fruit is well advanced
the owners are making preliminary
arrangements for marketing the crop.
One section of the grove is devoted
exclusively to the Satsuma orange,
and these trees are especially heavy
with fruit, some of which is ready for
marketing.
1t is worth anyone's time to visit
this grove, as well as others in the
Micanopy section. The yield will be
much heavier in many groves than
last season, and the crop in Alachua
county, exclusive of the Mcdowell
grove, will not be less than 1000 bax-
es. it is believed.-Gainesville Sun.

FISH DINNER ON THE BANKS OF
THE WITHLAcocHEE

Quite a number of Ocala people en-
joyed a big fish dinner Friday, the
guests of Mayor John D. Robertson, at
his summer cottage on the banks of
the Withlacoochee.
The party consisted of the follow
ing gentlemen: Messrs. r. A. Burford,
William Gober, A. T. Thomas, r. S.
Hail. Earl Hall, Harvey Clark, L. M.
Gibson, H. e. Roseberry, ]. D. Rooney
and Frank Harris.
The day was perfect one, and that
historic stream sustained it's reputa-
ton for doing its full part in contrib
uting to the delight of those fond of
the rod and reel and expert in manip-
ulating the same.
In very few hours as many as
twenty-five or thirty gamey trout,
some weighing as much as nine
pounds, were fiuttering in the bottom
of the boats.
fishermen were Mayor Robertson, Mr..
Harvey Clark and Mr.. L. NJ. Gibson.
Mr.. Earl Hall landed his first trout
with rod and reel, and for so doing
won a rod and reel from his father as
a prize.
Colonel Burford fished more heroic
ally than any other member of the
party but played in hard luck. How
ever, he came very near catching a
real link" and was the only one of
the party who caught a glimpse of
this curious creature, peculiar to the
solitudes of the Withlacoochee river.
The fish were taken Immediately
from the river to the frying pan, and
never were fish fried more appetizing-
ly nor eaten with greater relish. Mr..
Stokes, for whom the ferry is named,
acted as chef, and no one more thor
oughly understands the art. He is a
past master, and received his first in
structions more than forty years ago.
Besides the fish the dinner consisted
of hot cornbread-the cooking of
which ranked next to the fish--hot
coffee. breakfast bacon, candied pota-
toes, rolls, onions, pickles, etc.
No one had less than three helpings
of fish and three cups of coffee.
There may be more style at the
Grove Park Inn, Asheville, n. c., but
we do not believe there ever was a
dinner more thoroughly enjoyed.
The ride back home was a pleasant
part of the program, as the weather
was delightfully."- cool and the road,
most OF the way, is in excellent condi-
ton.

FLORIDA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER To-. 1918
MEETING OF THE BOARD o
TRADE

A meeting of the board of trade was
held at the board of trade headquar
tiers on September 10, adm was pre-
sided over by Mr.. George MacKay
vice president, as DR.. Chace was away
visiting his family in Virginia
A number of communications we're
read and discussed and referred to
the board of governors, or otherwise
disposed of.
Mr.. w. ]. McGehee of Zuber, Mr..
w. NJ. Gist of Mcintosh and Capt. j.
A. Tucker of this city were elected as
members.
The secretary gave the details of
different features that were being ham
died and the progress being made;
also the result of his going before the
county commissioners in behalf Of a
county demonstration agent, as the
department of agriculture had advised
the counties that had been enjoying
this fund that unless they raised an
amount of SITS per year to be added
to their APPROPRIATION of $675, making
a salary of $85 per month for ten
months, the appropriation would be
withdrawn. The commissioners re.
sponded, and thus this is saved to our
county. Also as to the action in ref
erence to building a tick vat at the
fair grounds as demonstration. This
has been deferred until each commits
sioner can ascertain the number oil
cattle in his district, and the best 10
cation for a vat, hoping in the end tt
get one in each of the districts.
Discussed the councils action or
the union passenger and freight sta
ition, and the secretary was authoriz
ed to advise that the boards actor
was only in reference to a union pas
isenger station.
A change of certain trains on botf
the A. C. L. and Seaboard was dis
lcussed, and the secretary stated how
Tic ludlIcl was Uciu6 udAuiCu.
Col. R. F. Rogers was an interested
visitor, and made several good sugges
lions, and stated that his application
for membership would be filed at the
next meeting, and that he expected
ito be one of our active members. The
colonel always, in taking hold of any
Iproject, goes into it with the RICH
spirit.
| Special resolutions were passed OF
the coupon law.
Action as to lettering the SEIZED
ules on both the A. C. L. and s. A. L
was shown by the secretary, who
stated that he hoped for definite &C
ition soon.
1t was splendid meeting of inter
est. and while not so large in attend
lance, those present were well repaid
for their time.
If the whole of Ocala and our coun
ty would attend these meetings and
encourage the faithful few, as well as
the secretary, greater good would be
done.
Watch the results this fall and win.
ter. Every citizen should cast has in.
fiuence with and join the board of
trade.
