WILL PLANT COTTON

Where the farmers of Marion coun-
" planted one acre of cotton this year,
they will plant at least ten acres next
season and we would not be at all sur
prised to see the acreage jump to one
hundred times what it was this season.
Many farmers who have not planted
an acre in years viii go into it on
large scale and plant from so to zoo
acres each. Most all of those who
have been planting from five to ten
acres will double and some of them
quadruple their acreage. This viii
bring solid, substantial prosperity te
the county and cash to every planter
The price viii not be low again for
good many years-it is not likely t
be as cheap as this year and more
than likely will bring much bettel
price. The Star viii urge and advis'
the farmers to plant cotton and NOR
cotton.

S. j. Cats spoke to the people OF
Winter Haven Saturday night in the
park. His address was along his
usual line, which is too well known to
need repetition here. The only novel
ty introduced was statement that
the fund raised by his enemies to de-
feat him amounted to $4,000. This
differs considerably from the $4,000,
$40, 900, $4,000, $4,000 and various
other amounts he declared it to be in
various other cities Winter Haven
Chief.
Cats counts on finding new dupes
in every town-and he generally finds
them.

It's the Stars opinion that Mr..
Wilson is making a mistake in charg-
ing that war is certain il the republic
cans win. When the conflict in Europe
ends, the combatants will have had
enough war for fifty years. About
all the Americans that were in Mexico
have been murdered or driven out,
and as long as we keep on spending
fifteen million dollars a month to keep
hundred thousand men on the bor-
der, the Mexicans are not likely to
come into our own country to kill any
more-not many, anyhow.

state, and in 0cala among other
places, that Cats was arrested at
Lakeland when he made a speech
there some weeks ago at the instiga-

that the editor of the Telegram was
absent on a vacation and was some
thousands Of miles from Lakeland al

Tho admission by Lloyd George was
given added significance since It was
