TO INVESTIGATE
DAIRY INDUSTRY
Board of Trade Committee viii Go
to Dade City Next Week

With view to developing the dairy
industry in Marion county, the new
industries committee of the Board of
Trade, and several prominent farmers
OF the county who are interested, will
go to Dade City next Thursday to in
spect and investigate the dairies In
that territory.
A big success of dairying has been
made around Dade City. The milk is
handled there through a central depot
to which it is brought from the
dairies. AT the central depot the milk
is properly tested and Pasteurized and
shipped by baggage to Tampa, st. Pc
tersburg, Jacksonville and other
points, special baggage rate having
been obtained. The farmers are as
sisted in financing their dairies by
the business men and bankers.
The possibilities of the dairy indus
try in Marion county were discussed
at meeting of the new industries
committee yesterday afternoon, when
it was decided that a trip to Dade
City be made to get first hand infor-
nation. The committee is enthus-
iastic
Dairying is a, year-round industry,
and one that can be started on a COM
paratively small scale, and developed.
Marion county is an ideal section for
this industry.

THE SWIMMING POOL

There are lot of boys and girls
who should bless Superintendent Mar
tin of the light and power plant, who
improvised for them swimming pool,
from which they have obtained in the
last two weeks more fun and comfort
than in any other summer since
Ocala became city.
When Mr.. Martin looked at the
spray pond when it was finished, it at
once occurred to him how much pleas
use the young folks could have from
it, so he placed it at their disposal un-
til it was necessary to use it for the
condenser in the powerhouse. They
accepted by scores, and they have had
some mighty good times in conse-
quence.
A Star reporter visited the plant
last night and found the pool full, not
only of kids but many men and wom-
en-. The water was just right and
they surely were having one good
time.
Mr.. Martin regrets that he will
have to spoil their fun soon, as he
must run hot steam thru the pipes
and that will make the water too
warm for bathing. But it's mighty
good while it lasts.
The Star has earnestly besought
the council to give the city a swim
ming pool, but let the matter drop
the last year or two, because it knew
money was so scarce. However, it
thinks it is possible that a pool will
be built by next summer. All the
councilmen have seen how much good
the improvised pool is doing, and they
would order a regular one built to-
morrow if they had the money. 1t
would do more for the health and
comfort of the city in hot weather
than almost any other one thing.

PLUMB PLUGS
THE PLUTOCRATS
Rockefeller, Morgan, Et Ais, He Says,
Systematically Loot the
Railroads
(Associated Press)

Washington, Aug. 7.-Information
direct from Wall street and the bank
ing houses controlled by the Morgan
and Rockefeller groups, in possession
of the railroad brotherhoods, shows
systematic plundering of all public
transportation highways in the Unit
ed States, Glenn Plumb, of Chicago,
told the House commerce committee
today, supporting the plan. for ma
tionalization of railroads. He cliamed
this information tended to show the
wrecking and looting of the New
Haven, Chicago & Alton. Rock Island
and Frisco lines was not sporadic. He
said that all railroads have and are
suffering from the oppression of the
firms named.

law, and a law that we could en-
force, to compel each and every prop
erty owner to give in his taxes once a
year, to be accompanied by a sworn
affidavit, and this is the only way that
/ can really see how we will ever be
able to get the city taxes properly
eGualized. And when this is done, it
is my opinion that you will see some
OF the wealthier people of Ocala raise
a howl. Nevertheless, it would be fair
and just to all.
Mr.. Benjamin stated that the Star
did not support me in the last city
election for the simple reason that
they were of the opinion that my op-
ponent would make better alderman.
Though am very glad indeed to know
that the majority of the citizens of
Ocala had a different opinion from
that of the Star, would have been
very glad indeed to have had the sup
port of the Star, but on the other hand
feel very proud to know that l was
man enough to win out against it.
Now, as to that skidding stuff that
Mr.. Benjamin referred to at the next
election, will say that the citizens
of Ocala can slip the skids under me
any time they wish and will most
certainly be ready to ride, but until
that time shall endeavor to do what
think is best and right for the city's
interest.
Mr.. Benjamin winds up his letter
by saying that he does not know what
he would do if he was in another
mans place and if / would stop to
consider the matter that I would ad-
NIT to myself that / would not know
what would do, if were in another
mans place. This may be true and
/ am free to admit that if / were in
certain other mans place in the city
of Ocala, and paid less than 1925 city
taxes, would certainly stop bowling
and censuring other people, who have
and are still trying to make success.
Now in conclusion, am very glad
indeed to know that Mr.. Benjamin has
decided to make arrangements to buy
new pair of breeches and spend the
balance of his days in the good old
town of Ocala, which he has always
boosted-nix, and that when he does
get ready to depart for parts un-
known he will have his old friend Don
McIver measure him for a union suit,
namely, a wooden box that will carry
breeches and all. Now even if Mr..
Benjamin expects to spend a good
many more years in this beautiful
land of flowers and expects to be
measured and nailed up in a wooden
box by Don McIver, would advise
him to Immediately start a sinking
fund for this special purpose, for he
should know that the work of up-to-
date undertakers in the city of Ocala
sometimes comes high. But. when
nc does depart from this beautiful
land of ours. Don McIver will see,
hope, that he is nailed up safe and
secure in a strong wooden box, and ii
am still living will promise to see
too it that there is enough dirt piled
upon said box to keep him from ever
raising up to annoy the angels in the
high heavens above, but on the other
hand, / shall wish him a safe journey
and wide berth to that place below
where no human bones have ever yet
returneth. Very respectfully,
| A. T. Thomas
