"Cliff" Maull's Address.

The Ocala Banner of last week
makes the following comment on an
address delivered before the Ccala
board of trade recently by G. A.
Maui, and which The News reprints
in order that the people of Crescent
City may see what the outside world
thinks of this yong man who is
Crescent City raised and who stayed
with us until he began to have long
ings for other worlds to conquer:
Mr.. c. A. Maull, connected with
the advertising department of the At
llantic Coast Line, made most inter-
esting and Illuminating talk at the
board of trade rooms last week.
His address was along the lines of
the best methods to be pursued to
attract producers to Florida.
Mr.. Maui is gifted and delight
full talker, and it is matter of regret
that more were not out to hear his
remarks, because they were compell-
ing and instructive.
Mr. Maui has been connected with
the advertising departments of some
of the largest railroads of the coun-
try, and has been an extensive travel
err, so has gained wonderful fund of
information.
He said that Notwithstanding the
soil of Florida was light and porous,
as compared with some other Sec
tions of the country, he was firmly
convinced that in the course of TWEEN
ty-five or thirty years the lands here
would command higher price than
in any other section of the United
States.
He based this belief on our geo.
graphical location and climate condi-
tions.
To make these lands valuable he
said they had to be cultivated along
lines of modern and economical meth
DDS, and gave Illuminating examples
of the application of those methods.
He said, for instance, twenty-five
years ago the farmers of the little
state of Delaware were bankrIpts.
Today they are prosperous. That they
were prosperous because they chang
ed the methods of cultivation. To-
day he said that Delaware furnished
one-tenth of all the canned goods con-
sumed in the United States, and the
yield of corn had increased from eigh-
teen bushels of corn per acre to more
than one hundred, and that the yield
of all other crops had increased in
the same proportion.
He said that the soil of Delaware
was not unlike the soil of Florida, and
that with the application of intelli-
gent, scientific methods, with her adj
vantage of climate, would increase
her yield even more abundantly than
Delaware had done.
We are sorry that or time and
space prevent US from giving a great
err review of his speech, but we shall
avail ourselves of this pleasure at an
other time, as his talk was full of
meaty matter and compelled the at
tention of those who heard him, be-
cause he was a many-sided and most
attractive speaker.
