Secretary of the Interior Lane
writes to Mayor Chace, asking him to
try to interest Ocala in the movement
now spreading turnout the country for
the erection of community houses as
memorials to our soldiers and sailors
who fought in the great war. It has
been suggested that these community
houses be known as Liberty Builo-
ings," and that they be dedicated as
neighborhood gathering places for the
civic service and fellowship for all the
people. Ocala needs such a building,
and it would be. a fine thing for our
people to join hands and erect it.

will bring in more money than it will
take out, and it will be one of the
best advertisements our city can have.

For Surveyor
JOHN ]. JOHN
SENATOR WAKEFIELD HAS GREAT
CONFIDENCE IN THE OUTCOME
OF THE APPROACHING ELEC-
TT0%N


In an interview with the Advocate
this week, Senator Wade H. D. War
field said:
'I find the Democrats OF Carroll
better united today than IN many
years-not only this, but / find many
good Republicans and men OF mde-
pendent minds, lining up with us
we have a representative ticket that
needs no defense, they are all men
of character and force and will I'LL
the respective offices to which they
aspire to the credit of the county.
MR. Warfield discussed the situa-
ton with a freedom and optimism
that indicated great confidence in the
ultimate outcome Continuing, he
said:
az feel the tax question is the most
important issue in this campaign, 1t
is uppermost in the minds OF our
people at this time The so per cent
increase i'm our tax rate was not
1ustiffed-the same things could have
been accomplished if practical bust
ness methods had been employed,
without a single dollar increase in
our taxes.
Mr.. Warfeld is one Of the leading
business men. bankers, and farmers
of this section of the state. He is
one of the largest farmers in the
county, owning and actively manag-
ing four farms embracing eight hun
dred acres. He operates two SAM
tary diaries, producing 125 gallons of
milk daily, which is shipped to the
Baltimore market. He is an au-
thority on farm labor, having written
many articles bearing on same. We
reprint an article in this issue OF
The Advocate which appeared in the
February edition of The Maryland
Farmer, which attracted a great
deal OF attention and has been widely
commented upon.
Mr.. Warf1eld was born on a farm
and has lived on farm all his life.
We quote from his interview
Il feel the farmer is coming into
his own at last, and largely through
the efforts of the County Agents
These agents are paid to advise, or
ganize and direct; they are placed
in every county of the state and in
every state of the union. The far
mers are organized as never before
and results are being obtained. Take
the State Dairymen's Association, a
branch of which we have here in
Carroll county, organized through
the County Agent. This organiza-
ton has been a great benefit to the
dairying interests; today we are re
ceiving 40 cents per gallon for our
milk, and had it not been for the
efforts of our County Agent, we
would be receiving probably only &c
cents per gallon. Mr.. Frederick Full,
Ter, our present agent, is doing a
good work and should be encouraged
in every possible way"
