Ocala Exhibits at the State Fair
Although it was announced that
Marion county is not competing for
prizes in the big contest at the State
Fair, visitors to Jacksonville say
Marion county has exhibits in promi-
nent places. There is beautiful booth
in a ten-foot space in the agricultural
department, decorated with patriotic
colors, and centered with picture of
President Wilson. Above the booth in
large letters are the words: Marion
County Canning Club" This exhibit
is at the State Fair purely for pat
riotic reasons, and as a courtesy to
the fair. The exhibit was financed by
patriotic Ocala business men. The
pantry exhibit of glassware was sent
by Mrs. T. B. Shook of Weirsdale.
Entirely separate from this is an
other exhibit, specimens of Marion
county canning club work, SO con-
tainers in lassand "a in tins. All
these have attracted considerable at
tention and have been highly compli-
mented. Mrs. Moorhead returned to
Jacksonville this afternoon to be with
her exhibits the remainder of the
week. She took with her a huge lot
of Marion county orange blossoms,
which will undoubtedly add even more
to the Marion county booth.
