and the moon was shining long before
these experts got their diplomas or OBJ
tanned their jobs.
One can fancy that the man in the
moon. who has seen whole races of
experts come and go, smiles at these
most modern experts who declare that
the moon has no more influence on the
crops than some commercial fertlllzer
or some agricultural bulletins.
Perhaps there are few farmers so
loyal to the moon that they do not ad-
init that the sun has stronger and
more important influence on the crops,
but they do not want to see the moon
utterly discredited and extinguished
and kicked off the farm by new crop
of young and tender green experts.
They want the sun to work from sun
up to sundown, and they want the
moon to work the balance of the time.
If they could have the sun work for
them all night there is no doubt that
farmers would be better satisfied. but
no means has been found of compelling
the sun to work after dark.
The anti-Iunar experts lay much
stress on the fact that the moon is not
a central heating plant. or. at least
not a celestial heating plant. They say
that they have found that full daylight
is 900 times as strong as full moon
light, and that when a plant gets one
one-hundredth part of full daylight il
thrives little better than in utter dark :
ness. The figures are very Impressive
to persons who do not have much to dc
with farms and moons, and the experts
can quote figures.
The moon has been in the weather
prophet business too long to be dis
couraged by few experts in Wash
| ington and who, perhaps, do not know
! as much about the whims and oddities
and phantasies of the weather as the
goosebone, the bark of trees and the
ground hog. The moon tells farmers
whether the month is to be wet or dry

| EVERY ALDERMAN
is IN FAVOR OF 1T

Every member of the board of nine
aldermen of the city of Ocala has
been interviewed ON the proposed
bond issue for constructing the rail,
steam or electric road from Ocala to
Silver Springs with the proceeds of
sale of city bonds, as provided by
the amended city charter, and all of
them are heartily in favor of the bond
issue. They are mostly, however, in
favor of larger bond issue, say $780,
900, so that whatever portion of it
needed may be used in building the
road right-of heavy steel rail, grad
ed and with proper and sufficient ter
minals at each end; operate it with
electricity and put on adequate cars,
both for freight and passengers.
There is no such thing as failure in
the plan. Ocala is going to have this
trolley line. We venture the asser-
ton that, when the bonds are 'adver-
tised, or when the advertisements are
placed for bids on the construction
work, we will have many bidders,
among whom there will be more than
one willing to build the road and take
the bonds for their pay. Talk about
it to your neighbors, so that when it
comes to a vote on the bonds there
will be solid vote for the bond issue.

PRICED IT LOOSE FROM PERRY

The fair association received the
$500 voted to it by the county COM
missioners, but the commissioners
had to mandamus Clerk Nugent be-
fore he would sign the warrant. Mr..
Nugent is kind-hearted man and
says he will go to see the commission
ers and take them some cigars when
the state puts them in Jail. The COM
missioners are now worried because
the banks won't cash warrants.
The trouble is all caused by the alb
surd state law, which interferes with
a county managing its own affairs
Mr.. Nugent, of course, thinks the fair
ought to have help from the county
and the banks know the county is SOL
vent. And if the board of commits
sioners is not competent to manage
the affairs of the county, the state of
fcials certainly are not. It's to be
hoped there will be enough sensible
men in the next legislature to repea
this annoying and useless statute.

Among the substantial attractions
at the fair will be high class res
taurant, conducted by some of Ocala's
most famous housekeepers, where one
can get a good dinner at reasonable
rates. The ladies will also, we under
stand, serve oysters any style at any
hour of the day. This is certainly a
great thing for the comfort of the
people and we congratulate the man
agement of the fair upon being able
to secure such service.

BUECHLER is SOME FARMER

Mr.. E. G.. Beuchler, manager of the
Anthony Farms, who is working
about twenty men on the place, has
been experimenting with different
kinds of feed stuffs and has fine sue
cess with them. He planted field of
peas and cut a ton of hay per acre
from the field. Just go days later he
cut the same field again, where the
peas had come up from the first
stalks and got three-fourths of a ton
per acre of fine vine and peas.
Mr.. Beuchler planted patch OF
Soudan grass on June LIST and cut it
on Aug. 81 when eight feet high. He
cut the same field a few days since,
less than 60 days later, when the
grass was seven feet high. This
grass makes splendid forage and
grows not only very prolific but
rapidly and cattle eat it with keen
relish.
Mr.. Beuchler is very enthusiastic
over natal grass and thinks it is one
of the coming forage crops of this
section. He says the complaint thai
it is too thin or too light in yield pei

is poor; that good Marion county lanc

GOOD WORK GOING ON
AT THE FAIR GROUNDS

| The people at the fair grounds are
hustling lively and everything will be
in good shape when the big show
"opens next Tuesday.
The grounds and buildings and
race track have never looked better,
and when you take a good look at
them and compare them with others
you will have to admit that old Mar
ion stacks up mighty good in this, as
in most other things.
The busiest place is the stables,
where all the stalls are filled with
runners and trotters, while their
trainers and grooms are either look
ing after their equine charges or at
tending to other jobs connected with
! the horse business, which like all
other occupations has many tricks of
| its own.
The grounds have been reaped and
raked, the buildings cleaned out and
| all trash removed. There has been
no building to do this year and very
little 70 renew.
| The reporter found Mrs Moorhead
very busy in the canning department,
which up to last year contained the
woman's exhibit. Mrs. Moorhead said
| that cher girls" were so numerous
that she had been obliged to notify
them to condense, lest there might
not be space enough for them all in
the big room.
Everything is being put shipshape
in the large halls devoted to agricul-
ture and horticulture, and they will
be ready for exhibits Monday morn
ing. The workers were also busy in
the woman's department.
The colored folks are going to
make fine exhibit this year, and the
good-sized building devoted to their
use is being made ready.
McIver & MacKay's men are busy
preparing their building for its usual
fine display.
Charlie Fox is rapidly putting up
the classiest drugstore ever seen on a
Playground. Gerig's drugstore will
have soda-water, candy and cigars, a
line of drugs, stationery and toilet
articles, telephone and-the great
est innovation-a Postal telegraph of
fee, where you may send dispatch
straight to New York or San Fran
cisco, if you want to, +,
The ladies of Ocala will have, at
the usual place, an up-to-date restaur-
ant, where one may obtain at reason
able cost just as good meal as is to
be had for the money anywhere.
The ladies of the Christian church,
who did so well with their lunch
stand last year, will be at the same
place next week, but better prepared.
The telephone company is putting
in four phones, beside the one in the
fair Office, so communication with
town will be quicker and more easy
than ever before.
