GREAT HATRED FOR ITALY

Wave Of Anger Sweeps Over the Ger

Paris, May 24.-An attack by Aus.
trian warships on the eastern coast
of Italy, along the .Adriatic, is an.
nounced in an official communication
from the Italian war office, transmit
ted to Paris by the correspondent
of the Havas agency. 1t is said the
Austrian warships we're forced to
withdraw after short cannonade.
The statement says:
1T was foreseen that on the dec
laration of war offensive actions
would take place against our Adriatic
coast to seek moral effect rather
than attaining military purpose.
But we were able to prepare for these
and make their duration short.
Small naval units of the enemy,
especially destroyers and torpedo
boats, fired their guns upon our Ad-
Ratio coast. At the same time aero
planes attempted to attack the ar.
senal at Venice.
THE enemys ships, after a short
cannonade, were forced by our tor
pedo boats to withdraw. The en-
emy's aeroplanes were fired on by
our anti-aircraft artillery and attack
ed by our aeroplanes and by dirig-
ible flying over the Adriatic.
"The aeroplanes attacked Porto
Corsini, which replied Immediately,
and obliged the enemy to retire
quickly. At Ancona, where the at
tack was directed especially against
the railway line, in the intention of
interrupting communication, slight
damage was inflicted, which can be
repaired easily.
Put to Flight by Italian Ships.
AT Barletta an attack was made
by scout steamer and destroyers,
which were put to flight by one of
our ships, which was escorted by tor
pedo boats. Finally at Gesi, the en-
emy's aeroplane attempted to throw
bombs on the hangers, but without
reaching the mark.
"All other news of operations has
no foundation"
It is apparent from the foregoing
dispatch that Austrian aeroplanes
have swept virtually the entire east
ern coast of Italy. From Venice, at
the head of the Adriatic, they have
made their way as far south as Bar
letta, distance of $50 miles, COM
hitting acts of hostility during their
progress. Barletta is 1875 miles north
of the Strait of Otranto, the southern
entrance to the Adriatic.
Granted that the aeroplanes start
ed from Trieste or Pola, they did not
have more than eighty or ninety
miles to travel to reach Venice.
Driven away here they appear to
have turned south. Porto Corsini is
the seaport of Ravenna and about
sixty eight miles south of Venice.
Ancona is another seaport on the
Adriatic, 1856 miles northeast Of
Rome, and about 40 miles south of
Venice in an air line.

There were 64,185 automobiles in
Minnesota November l, 1914. Sixty
three per cent of all the cars sold in the
year ending on that date were bought
by persons in towns of less than 5000 in
habitants, most of whom were farmers.
The figures are given out by The Farmer,

The business increased 62.5 per cent
from November l, 1911, to November 1,
1912. It grew 48.7 per cent in the like
period following and 5O.4 per cent in the
period ending with November 1, 1914.
Registration of cars not owned in the
state was eliminated in making up the
figures.
Majority Owned by Farmers.
The most significant part of the report
is that which shows the distribution OF
the cars. OF the 64,1S5 in the state UP
to the date of closing the census, the
number in towns of more than 10000
people, Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth,
was 1870. But the number of towns
of less than 1000, which means cars
owned by farmers in most cases, was
25,959.
Another significant comparison is that
between the number of cars owned in
the larger and in the smaller towns, in
1914 and 1913. While the number in the
three large cities rose from 1888 in
1913 to 1890 in 1914, the number in
towns of less than 1000 people came up
from 16,446 to 1888.
Small Cities gain Most.
Among the cities of the state outside
the three larger ones, which show re-
markably large number of cars owned,
the towns in farming communities have
made the greatest gain. Albert Lea,
with 6, 1872 people, had275 cars in 1913,
but the number had risen to SIG by No
vember 1, 1914. Mankato, with 1O,365
people, came up from 459 to 622, Winona
with 1883 people from 416 to 538 and
St. Coud with a population of 10000,
from $50 to 463.
Agricultural Communities Lead.
The large ownership by farmers is
further illustrated by comparisons be-
tween the northern mining towns and
the farming towns of the southern part
OF the state, indicating that population
or prosperity of the town is not alone an
index to sales possibilities in and about
it. Eveleth, with 7,036 people, had "A
cars IN 1913 and now has 60, but Austin,
a smaller town, with $3.50 population

The many friends of A. L. Glass
of Gainesville and PalatEa were
shocked to hear the sad tidings of his
death last week in Indianapolis, in
diana, whittier he had gone for treat
ment under a noted specialist.
Mr.. Glass had been ailing for some
time and had tried every means
available for the treatment 9f his
trouble, but his malady finally wore
him out. He bore his suffering with
wonderful patience. He was a man
greatly loved and esteemed by all
who were fortunate to be his friends
and was a man high up in the bust
ness world, holding responsible posi-
tions in various capacities. He was
a member of several fraternal orders.
The body was accompanied to Pa
latka by John Glass, brother, and
Browse Hollis, brpther-i -in-law, of
indianapolis. A delegation of Knights
Templar from Gainesville attended
the funeral which was held Tuesday
afternoon at the home of Mr.. Glass
mother-in-law, Mrs. Coke on N. 3rd
street, and Episcopal church. The
Knights were accompanied by Rev.
Campbell, Episcopal rector, who as
sisted in the service. Rev. Mr.. Lew
is, the local rector officiating. Prior
to the service at the Episcopal church
the local body of Masons held their
impressive service, at the house.

HOW 100000 BRIDGE
WILL COST S800,OO0.
An Article of Interest to
Residents of This Sec
ton.

Permanent roads and a concrete
bridge across the st. Johns river
seem to be the principal topics
among the members of the Palatka
board of trade and the Putnam coun-
ty chamber of commerce.
Other states, counties and cities
have spent millions of dollars in ex-
periments for such improvements,
and it seems useless for any more
money to be wasted in that m.oner.
We certainly should profit by the ex-
perience of others. We can easily do
so, for others are willing to give
what information they can and save
others from making the same mis-
takes they did.
The following editorial from the
Engineering News should be an eye
opener:
Redeeming bonds for public i'm
provements by new bond issues has
been a favorite amusement in many
American cities. Some cities are be-
ginning to realize the costliness of
that sort of play. Judging from
statements in the Pioneer-Press, st.
Paul is now one of the reformed ci-
ties, but late convert. That jour-
nal recently said:
Thirty years ago the city built
the Robert Street bridge and issued
100000 in bonds to pay for it.
That was in the old days when we in
dulged in a perfect orgy of bonds.
Since then we have paid 100000 in
interest on those bonds and not dol
lar of the principal. But we got the
bridge, though it has cost US $500,000
instead of 100000.
Now we must refund those bonds
and it will cost US nearly 100000 in
interest, with the original 100000
yet to take care of. So the Robert
street bridge will cost st. Paul about
$SOO,OOO.
And now without dollar paid on
its cost, the Robert street bridge is
antiquated and Insuited to its nur-
pose. 1t was a failure from the be-
ginning and must be replaced by an
adequate structure. st. Paul will
have paid, when it pays it, 100000
for a failure.
Here is a kindergarten lesson in
city bonds. Is it any wonder the tax
payers of st. Paul want to be shown
before they give their consent to the
issue of more bonds?"
The sound way to finance such i'm.
Iprovements is either to pay as you &c
or else to issue bonds which will not
run longer than the useful life of the
improvement. If bonds are issued il
is far safer to pay them off, year by
year, than to accumulate a sinking
fund for possible diversion to other
uses.-Engineering News.

tically put many of the liquor dealers

This resolution would have allowed
the commissioners to issue these

GOOD CROP OF
IRISH POTATOES
Helms, Hightower & Deats
Have Successful Yield.

To anyone who has never visited
the potato section of Putnam comfy
east of the St. Johns river during
harvest time, it is worth the time and
trouble to spend an hour or more
is gathered.
A representative of The News re-
Gently visited the farm of j. A.
Helms, "the potato king of East Pa
latka." Mr.. Helms has as associates
Messrs. Hightower & Deats, and these
gentlemen had about 100 acres in
Irish potatoes this season. The
yield was a little better than so bar
refs to TIE acre.
Tins large acreage is a beautiful
sight 10 the average Floridian, but
the most interesting thing is to VT
ness the manne" OF digging and pack
ing. Thee is very little of the work
done by hand. The potatoes are dug
by mat"he drawn by three or E ur
horses or mules. This machine digs,
removes the tops and clinging earth
and leaves the potatoes on top OF the
rows ready for the pickers. The
pickers follow the digger and fill the
haihpSiS WHICH ale Hduleu W VIC
sizer.
The sizer is a new device and
sorts the potatoes into four sizes
No. Is 2's, choice and culls. 1t also
cleans the potatoes, removing what
dirt may be clinging to them that the
digger did not get. The potatoes
drop from the sizer into barrels
which are Immediately headed up,
stamped and hauled to the cars.
The great advantage in growing
potatoes or trucks in large quantities
is the easy manner Of marketing. 1t
is not necessary to do your own ship
ping and wait weeks for the returns
and run risks of declining market,
for several commission men are al
ways on the ground ready to buy f.o.
b. shipping. station.
At the time of the visit of our rep
resentative about twelve car loads a
day were moving from the East Pa
latka station. Messrs. Helms, High
tower & Deats were nearing the end
of digging, their crop coming on
some two weeks earlier than others
in this section.
A few weeks before digging time
this esction was visited by heavy
frost which damaged some crops con-
siderably, bit Messrs. Helms, High
tower & Deats had planted early and
their crop was scarcely damaged at
all. On some acres they dug over 50
barrels. On one section Of Is acres
the average was 70 barrels.
These gentlemen are also heavy
operators, buying and selling in this
section, and as the prices have re-
mained good, the season altogether
has been a very profitable one to
them.
But the returns from a crop like
this are not all profit, for it costs
thousands of dollars to plant, ferti-
lie and harvest. However, the plan
ters follow the diggers and the acre
age is planted to corn, beans, hay,
etc, without extra fertilizer. and the
returns from these crops will pay all
expenses, and sometimes more, ieav-
ing the sales for potatoes net profit.
\ This has been a prosperous wear
for Messrs. Helms, Hightower &
Deats land Mrs. Helms, too, for she is
the real hustler of them alD and
their manv friends are congratulating
them upon their success.
