"A LETTER FROM JUNGLE PETER"
To the Editor ucala Banner:

% the EulCOr Ocala banner:
| just want to ask for enough room
in your valuable paper to let the read,
ers know what a grand time DR..
Boozer and Bro Jim Smoak and
are having at Salt Springs. / left
home a few minutes after O'Clock
on the morning of February 21st, and
arrived at the springs at noon. The
doctor and Bro. Jim heS gc7e to Nor
walk to get horse feed, and returned
about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. In
la few short moments after they re-
turned we three were at the table,
and just as happy as lot of school
boys. Hot coffee, bread, venison and
we'll, too many good things to men
ton them all. After our meal the
doctor and ye scribe were soon pull
ing in the fish, and Bro Jim was fix
ing his hooks to catch turtles, after
dark.
Say, Mr.. Editor, if you want to
have good time; just stop your busy
and hard brain-work, get in a car
and HE away to Salt Springs, leave
all of Ocala out of your mind and
have good time while the doctor
and Bro. Jim are over there. 1t would
do you more good than all the money
you could count from now until Ga
briel toots his horn.
Well, l soon had 29 of those fine
fish in bucket, and not long did we
wait before Bro Jim returned from
setting his turtle hooks. A little aft
er dark we were again at the table,
and o, what supper we had. DR..
Boozer said that he could not remem-
Der when he had partaken of such a
supper. He told me that if he had
eaten such a supper as that in Ocala,
it would just about have killed him.
Yes, the good doctor is doing fine
After we had eaten about all we
could hold, Bro. Jim took the plate
and put it under the doctors nose,
and said: Have some more?" mo,
no." responded the doctor, looking
longingly at the plate while letting
out his belt. The doctor was full,
though, and could not be tempted
We were soon sitting around the
pine-knot fire talking of the long ago,
when in came a few of those who
work for Messrs. Hall & Co., and
gave us a grand old-time serenade
Oh, how that banjo did ring, and how
that darkey did sing
The hour had then arrived for null
let fishing, and Bro. Jim soon had
some of our visitors putting the net
out, and the fish were caught and
cleaned, ready for next day
After this, the hour being late, we
turned in" | slept between the doc
tor and Bro. Jim-or rather | turned
and twisted and slept very little. I"ll
tell you, Mr.. Editor. if you go over to
Salt Springs leave your gourds be-
hind, for of all the saving of gourds
may the good Lord deliver
Uncle Peter"

The North Dakota Livestock De-
monstration train that the 500 rail-
road and the North Dakota Expert
ment station are running has complet-
ed the first weeks run. The following
towns have been visited: Cogswell,
Fullerton, Kuhn, Ashley, Wishek,
Napoleon, Braddock. Washburn'
Underwood, Garrison. Max, Plaza,
Ryder, Ruso, Dogden, Orrin, Fillmore,
Baker, Harlow, Southam, Whitman and
Fordville. Sunday was spent at
the latter place. Good audiences have
met the train at each point. There has
been much interest shown which in
dicates that there is going to be more
and better stock raised in the state.
In many of the towns a number who
came to the train could not under
stand English and for such talks were
given in German. So that all who
came had chance to get the informa-
ton that the train had to offer.
1t would cost considerable money to
buy as good animals as those carried
on the train but they brought out a
scheme for securing as good stock and
at a small cost. In fact 1t was shown
that the good stock could be produced
as cheaply as the ordinary kind. This
was the plan: use pure bred sires of
good type. These cost considerably
more than the common sires but by
several going together and buying 1t
and using 1t on their herds the COM
mon stock viii soon be graded UP so
ais TO be about as good as the pure.

Corn and alfalfa are being grown
at all points where the train has
touched and the good kinds of stock
are machines for converting these in
to the most valuable form for the
market.
The one crop system Of farming
must give way to diversifcation and
the train is bringing the best available
information how to do this. The ex-
perience of how it has been done in
the states to the south and east plus
the Investigations of the North Dakota
Experiment station. The change from
grain farming to livestock and rotation
Of crops will come much faster than in
other states as the North Dakota
farmer is taking advantage Of their
experience. Those who come to the
livestock train will be able to make a
better start in livestock, they will be
in position to cut out experimenting
and to get results quicker.
The train will be out four more days.
The towns that will be given meetings
in these four days are Adams, Nekoma,
Gallo, Bisbee, Rolette. Omeeme, Rus
sci, Lansford, Tolley, Kenmare. Flax
ton, Columbus, Westby, Ambrose and
Crosby. Thirty seven towns will be
given meetings. These are all on the
branch lines Of the 500 lines in North
Dakota.
This is the first purely livestock
train that has been run In North Da-
lkota.

executive committee and table for
each of the fifteen teams and sufficient
tables for guests. The team members
are supposed to sit at the table which
bears their number and the name of
the captain of the team. Guest tables
will be so designated. This plan Is
arranged by the campaign manager,
so as to avoid confusion during the
time when the distribution OF names Is
made.
Those in close touch with the cam
paign plan say, that II Is vitality I'M
portant that every worker shall be at
the opening campaign banquet tonight:
that anyone absent will not only be
personally handicapped during the
succeeding days but will to that extent
handicap the entire campaign. The
campaign manager says,--that this
plan of campaign, where 1t has been
carried out according to instructions,
has never failed but 1t is equally I'M
possible for 1t to succeed, unless every
detail Of the plan Ia carefully adhered
to.
The banquet will be served tonight
at $3.50 o'clock sharp. Both workers
and guests are urged to be prompt so
as not to delay the procession. The
banquet and program will be carried
through strictly on schedule.
The wives OF the workers OF the
mems teams and the husbands OF the
workers of the women's teams will be
guests at the banquet tonight, but they
are not to sit at the workers tables
but at the guests tables.

The body was finally identified by Ed
Davidson, of the Northern Produce Co.,
whose name and address were found
written on a slip of paper in the dead

this city. The body will be taken to

George Brandes, who is among the

stand the United States and Ameri-

Nevertheless he was a kindly critic,
admitting that his information was

He said it seemed that Americans

For years DR.. Brandes enemies
kept him out of the chair at the Uni

Carmody's offer to Mr.. Wishek was
for a trade for support, providing the
Germans and resubmissionists Of the
state would throw support to Miller
as a candidate for United States sem
ator, and also for Alfred Zuger the
progressive republican candidate for
attorney general to succeed Andrew
Miller, and from whom Carmody has
been promised a continuance Of his
present position. Carmody's offer,
however, was not seriously considered
by Wishek, in view of the fact that
just at present Zuger is in the eastern
part Of the state attempting to secure
the prohibition support for his own
