WASHINGTON, d. O., OCT s'-You
can say goodbye" to joyrldlng.
The demands OF business, In addition
TO tho requirements Of war, will soon
become so clear to tho American pub
lie that mighty few Will ever back their
car unless the trip is absolutely neces-
sary.
The government is seeking to accom-
pllsh the main purpose Of conserving
gasoline through public opinion, and
this force. which has been controlling
tho situation on Sundays, is likely to
control Saturday afternoons or other
week-days-that is, the riding for
pleasure purely
I'VE thought Of trying TO stop the
night ioy-rider by some direct method"
said M, L. Requa, oil administrator, TO
me the other day, "but the problem, OF
course, would have been difficult TO
solve, We think the object will in
stead be accomplished by the present
method OF conserving which has been
adopted and so generally accepted by
the American public"
Henceforth It will be possible for the
government to control the price II pc
troleum products the same as IL con-
trolls the price OF food. BY proclama-
tion OF President Wilson the licensing
system which was applied TO large
dealers In fuel oil last spring will be
extended Oct. TO cover all branches
Of the oil industry except producers Of
crude oils and retailers whose gross
business is less than 100000 per year.
The immediate purpose OF the eX-
tension Of the licensing system is. OF
course, 10 insure priority both in sup
plies and materials, but it Is probable
that through this licensing system the
price OF all products to the consumer
will be stabilized or standardized event.
ually. Attention is called 10 the re-
qulrements OF this industry principally
for the purpose Of letting the automo-
bile user understand that the govern
ment has real oil problem on its
hands.

"Our neutrality no longer exists, but

has been intensified by the oppression
which has continued since that time.
When the Huns made their formid-
able rush on Verdun In 1916 through
Luxembourg, there came a magnificent
white and gold coach and four.
splendid coach house and luxurious
stable were prepared
Luxemburgers stared, and proud
German cOachmen told them the Kai-

making his triumphal entry into Yer
dun and later into Paris.
The Germans were defeated, but the
royal coach remained in Luxembourg
and the villagers gravely asked each
day II the royal coach would soon be
used.
Only lately, as the jests Of the Lux
emburgers became intolerable, the
coach and four one day Travelled the

NITRATE FOR THE FARMERS

Editor Star: I am advised by the
secretary of agriculture, that the de-
partment is now ready to put into eff
feet the provision of the food control
act in which the secretary is author
lied to distribute to the farmers of
the county 100000 tons of nitrate of
soda for fertilizer purposes. This
fertilizer will be sold to the farmer
at actual cost, plus the transporta-
ton charges from the port of arrival
This cost, / am informed will be
$3.50 per ton.
Farm demonstration agents in each
county will be supplied with all nee
essary blanks, etc., with which the
farmers can make application for the
fertilizer. These applications should
be signed and returned to the county
agents by February 4th, who will for
ward them on to Washington accom-.
panied by the money to cover them
The department will designate some
bank, association or individual in each
county, with whom the farmer should
deposit the amount of his purchase at
the time application is made.
AS the supply is only 100000 tons
and will be distributed all over the
United States, / would urge that our
Florida farmers get busy at once and
get in touch with their county agents.
Very sincerely yours,
Frank Clark,

OCALA TWENTY YEARS AGO

The Ocala Rifles had a grand cake
walk at their armory on the night of
Jan. 20, 1898. Among the walkers
were j. j. Gerig, Geo. L. Van Echop,
John Taylor, John Mathews, w. N.
Bangs, R. L. Northcutt, j. c. Nor
cross, S. R. Birdsey, Frank Bugbee,
Sanford Jewett and ]. Howard Chail-
lee. The prize went to Bangs and
Northcutt The proceeds of the affair
were donated to the public library.
On the night of the 21st, Starke &
Tolson, a road company, presented
Mrs. Beatrice Marean's play, "Cher-
ry, Or Labor and Capital" at the Mar

big hit. Mrs. Marean, author of the
play, also wrote "The Tragedies of
Oakhurst," and a number of other
books, all of which are pretty we'll
forgotten now.

The Star has not had an opportu-
nifty to study the provisions of Sena-
tor Chamberlain's bill to create a
war council" but it doesn't like the
idea on general principles. We are
afraid of any "war cabinet consisting
of three distinguished citizens of
demonstrated executive ability" No
citizen of this country has so far
demonstrated any marked executive
ability in dealing with war problems.
Such council would be certain to an
tagonize and interfere with the pres,
ident and the army staff and that
would spell disaster with big capital
letters. We don't blame Mr.. Wilson
for fighting the idea, and it behooveth
every citizen with boy in the serv-
ice to stand by the president.

], Ocala is Loyalty supporting the
fuel administration, and its loyalty is
no less marked because its support is
moral rather than material AS
matter of fact, cutting off lights and
power in Ocala does not add to the
supply of fuel in any other part of
the country. It's most marked effect
is to decrease the slender revenues of
the city and consequently make the
load heavier on the taxpayers. How
ever, as Mr.. Garfield says, it's war,
and the tail must go with the hide.

The reports in some of the news
papers about the ill-supplied condition
of American troops in France are not
borne out by our Ocala boys on the
western front. They write home that
they are well provided for and well
equipped. 1t is probably true that our
first expeditionary force had to buy a
good many supplies in France, but
they paid for them in good American
money. Some of our young officers
have written home that they were
sorry they didn't wait until they
reached Paris to buy their equipment,
as they could have bought most of the
articles there for about half what
they had to pay for them in America.
