BACK TO THE FARM THE ONLY
SOLUTION

In the great cities OF this country
today there are thousands of unem-
ployed men. They beseige employ
ment agencies and are in many cases
dependent upon the bread line for
their food They are able bodied men,
willing and ready to work, but there
is nothing for them to do in the
already crowded factories and shops.
AS bearing on this demand for
work by the thousands, there is great
significance in the statement by the
secretary of agriculture that the
total arabic land in the United States
is approximately 935,OOO,O6O acres, OF
which 100000 acres are unimproved
and not included in farms, while the
remainder is included within farms.
Of this remainder only 100000 is
improved. In other words, less than
forty per cent. of our owned land
are FSdSOHdD1J WOlA SuA'A'0SeNN'
less than twelve of one per cent is
intensively cultivated.
These are facts that are significant
says the MACON Telegraph, but the
bringing of these unemployed men
to these unimproved farms is the
problem and it is serious one for
many reasons. In the first place these
men do not want to leave the city
and in the second place farmers do
not want to employ men who know
nothing about farming. They would
prefer to employ young men who
could learn to farm successfully.
Such a situation could not arise in
England or any of the European
countries for the reason that they
have very little unimprovevd land and
for the reason that the country is
dotted with small farms worked in
tensively.
This is strictly an American in
dustral problem and the sooner the
government or the farmers them
selves are able to solve it the better
off both will be. There is too much
unemployed labor in the cities and
too little employed labor in the
country-Washingto Verdict.

A SALOON DECISION

A decision of far-reaching import
ance in this state and one which will
be hailed with joy by the saloon ele-
ment was handed down at Ocala a
few days ago by Circuit Judge Bull
lock, who held that the law passed
by the last legislature requiring
are conducted for white and colored
patrons is invalid
This was the first test case under
the act, which is a part of the reve-
nue. law, The Marion County Tax
Collector required double license from
saloon-keepers operating bars for
white and colored and liquor dealer
of Ocala took the case into court
Judge Bullock ordered the prisoner
discharged, owing to the validity of
the law. The exact ground of his
opinion are not known here, but Judge
Bullock is a cry careful and studious
jurist and his decisions are usually
affirmed by the supreme court.
Since the law went into effect, many
of the negro bars in this county have
been discontinued but they will now
doubtless be reopened. Meantime, the
case will go to the higher court

RETTY DANCE FOR CHARMING
VISITORS AT COUNTRY
CLUE

From Tuesdays Daily:
The Ocala Country Club was the
scene of another very enjoyable
dance last night, when Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarence Camp entertained in compli-
Mrs. George F. Armstrong, of Savan-
nah, Mrs Edward F. Fitch of Chicago,
and Mrs. Ira Fuller Bennett of Okla
homa City.
These three charming women for
merly resided in Ocala, and the
guests at last nights dance included
only their special friends and their
escorts and the special friends of the
hosts, about thirty members of the
unmarried set, and several of the
young married couples being enter
tanned.
The hosts and the honor guests,
with their husbands, received the
guests in the beautiful ball room, and
in the tea room punch was served by
Miss Stotesbury and Mrs. Lloyd.
Music for the dancing was furnish
ed by the orchestra, and with one or
two exceptions only the new dances
were danced, the old fashioned waltz
and two-step having almost entirely
lost out The dancers have been busy
learning the new steps, and since
there are many variations to every
dance, it was no unusual sight to see
dancers showing their partners the
way they danced the hesitation or
the latest addition to the tango, and
therein seems to lie much of the fun
of the new dances-to learn each
time some new step or variation.
Many of the older people who had re.
nounced the dance when they felt
their hair turning gray have re-enter-
ed the field of endeavor, and the young
will have to look to their laurels.
For several hours the dancing was
enjoyed last night and for several who
did not dance cards were provided
During the intermission supper was
served in the dining room, and it was
quite late in the evening when all OF
the guests babe goodnight to Mr.. and
Mrs. Camp and the honor guests.
Mr. and Mrs. Camp have given sew
eral very lovely dances at the club
this winter and last nights affair, Civ
en- especially for their three sisters
was one of the most delightful ones
yet given by them.

THE CAUSE OF THE DEPRESSION

The Atlanta Journal says that the
Balkan war is the cause of the de-
preston that has gradually spread
itself over the whole world Those
slain in battle have been enormous.
In one of the provinces only 1000 men
survive out of a population of $4,000
The Journal then goes on to say:
so soon as it became evident that
the smaller nations were going to war
the Old World powers began cycling
one another with heightened suspi-
sion. Germany questioned what Eng
land would do, and Russia what Aus
tria would do. The Triple Alliance
and the Tripe Entente each clutched
its sword more tightly. Armies al.
ready vast were increased, and the
war debt already oppressive was pill
ed higher. 1t is the people who must
pay.
Financial centers grew anxious,
and then alarmed. Loans were called
in, rates of interest scared. credit
was denied, and the industry and COM
merce of Europe felt the pinch. These
conditions were reflected across the
Atlantic. Fortunately, the inherent
vigor of American business with
stood the strain, but it was none the
less perceptible in our markets. Thus
a far away war among strange people
cast its shadow over the whole earth. :"
Business is now reviving and since
the presidents trust" message has
been delivered, because of its concil-
iatory terms and hopeful tone, appre-
tensions have been allayed, and it is
believed that there will be a revival
of business everywhere.

the valley and brides roses.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.

after February 1st will be at home at
Gainesville, Fla, where the groom is
secretary and treasurer of an impor-
tant business there-Lynchburg (Va.)

APPLES AND THE WHIsKEY
HABIT

The following letter from bar
tender of twenty-five years expert
ence appears in the Florida Metrop-
oils.
Twill you permit a bartender of
twenty-five years experience in his
business to give your readers what he
believes to be an antidote for the
liquor habit.
It's simple. Eat apples. The man
who eats three apples day will soon
lose his desire for drink. If boys
were taught to eat them each day
they would be in little danger.
/ know for l have tried it on many
of my "star" customers. 1t lost trade
for me, but there are some decent men
in the business. In. my experience
never sold drunken man or a minor
a drink-and never took one myself
And | have sold drinks all the way
from frontier towns to the big cities
OF course, it will not always work
But, as a rule, the apple habit and the
whiskey habit clash. To dodge wits
key try apples-then more apples
Oranges are better antidote than
apples. If one will eat an orange
every time he feels thirst for liquor
he will soon lose the taste for liquor

DIR. ). G. PuRvIs WEBS IN TAMPA
From Fridays Daily:

From Fridays Daily:
Many of the Ocala friends of DR.. j.
@. Purvis of this city will learn with
surprise that he was married several
days ago in Tampa. We did net learn
the name of his bride, but neverthe-
less extend our best wishes to both
the bride and the groom.
DIR. and Mrs. Purvis are now on a
honeymoon trip, and are expected to
return home in a day or two, and
will reside in Ocala.
DR.. Purvis moved to Ocala about
a year or more ago, and is practicing
his profession of dentistry here. He
is a brother of Captain Purvis, who
for number of years has had charge
OF the Marion Farms.
During his residence in Ocala DR..
Purvis has made a number of friends

The Ocala Banner observes that
FIVE out of Floridas six congressman
are lawyers. While the Banner does
not mention Congressman Claude
L'Engle, he is the only member of the
delegation who is not member of
the legal profession. The Banner
thinks it is time to have. farmer, or
mechanics member of the working
and producing classes-in congress
from this state. Upon the broad
principle of a diversity of interests
being represented in the government,
the Sentinel agrees with the Banner.
Yet the character and ability of the
man should be first taken into ac-
count. If he is honest, able and ener-
getic, and in sympathy with the mass
es, legal training is an obvious ad-
vantage for a law-maker to possess.
The fact that there are so many law
yers in congress makes it somewhat
desirable to send other lawyers there
to cope with them.-Orlando Sentinel.

Mr.. j. F. Hampton, a prosperous
farmer of the Cornell section, was in
the city last week and had on exhibit
ton the head of large buck which
he had just killed a few days before
after long and exciting chase. The
deer, after having its entrails and liv.
er removed, tipped the scales at ex.
actly 127 pounds. Many hunters and
others viewed the large head on ex.
hibition, and all agreed that Mr..
Hampton was entitled to the cham
pionship belt for having killed the
largest buck of the season.

Counter Revolution.

Ell Paso, Tex. oct. 27.-A "holy war"
in Mexico as a counter revolution
against the CarranZa Villa imbroglio
has been threatened, according to re-
ports brought here by Americans and
Mexicans who arrived by various
routes from Guadalajara. They told of
uprisings against the constitu;lonalist
authorities of central Mexico led by
Mexican priests.
1t was indicated by local activities
that the "cientificio," or eX-federal elc-
ment, which flourished under the Diaz
and Huerta regimes, would combine
with the new movement in Ousting the
constitutionalists, who disagreed even
before the triumph of their revolution.
Sacrilese lncites Movement.
The new movement was started at
state, when the constitutionalists from
populace a bishops mitre and after
ward confisca,ed the church property.
This act so enraged the people that,
led by priest and the town mayor,
they engaged the soldiers In running
fight.
Soon the trouble spread to adjoining
towns located around Guardalajara, the
second center of the west coast coun-
try.
The residents Of this district pro-
claimed themselves in favor of the
Villa revolution against the Carranza
central government for the reason that
their grievances were directed against
the troops of General Obregon, Car
rama partisan.
