The Jacksonville Metropolis hits
the bullseye when it says: "The Ro-
tary Club put itself on record yester-
day as being in favor of the state
highways being built with width OF
16 feet instead of nine feet. This
matter is now up before the state
highways commission. 1t is the opin-
ion of every good business man that
it would be a great mistake to have
the state roads only nine feet in width
People expect these state roads to be
built to stay. The nine-foot road
would be totally inadequate to take
care of the increasing travel. 1t would
be great reflection on the state to
have these measly, narrow roads
known as the state highways. 1t is
to be hoped that the state highways
commission will see the wisdom of
building the roads wide enough so
that two vehicles can pass without
any hindrance. Even the 16-foot road
is anything but ideal, but it will give
satisfaction. The Metropolis hopes
the state highways commission will
adopt the 16-foot width. for that
would please the people"

FARM NOTES BY
THE COUNTY AGENT

No farm is complete without good
garden amply large to supply the
home the year around with the vege-
tables used on the place. Such a gar
den will provide half the living of the
family and deserves the best of at
tention. No better thing can be done
for it than to give it a liberal broad
cast application of stable manure. Ten
tons per acre is little enough, and
twenty-five tons would be better No
other piece of land on the farm will
pay as much in returns, and you can
afford to fertilize heavily. Plow the
manure under and then arrange the
paintings so as to have vegetables
every day in the year and so as to
have enough for canning of those
things that are too tender to be grown
in the winter months.
Now is the time to plan the acreage
that is to be put in the different field
crops for the year, so that you can
regulate your work to the best advant-
age. Decision should be made as to
what crops you are to grow, the
acreage of each. the methods of grow
ing and fertilizing them, and finally
the disposition of them, whether they
are to be fed to stock or sold.
But the most important things to
remember in your plans is to see that
the food and feed crops needed for
your own farm are first made, and
let the surplus be in the money crops.
Farmers and their stock must be fed
and provision should first be made for
feeds. If larger part of the farm is
devoted to money crops and they fail,
the farmer is not in position to con-
tinue in business unless he has a good
bank account. Work to your plan dur
ing the year as closely as possible and
make such changes as are made neces-
sary by unforeseen conditions. Farm
ing cannot be carried on by a fixed
plan like other businesses. but it is

BOYS CLUB
FOR MARION COUNTY

Last week announcement was madeI
that the Ocala National Bank would
finance a boys calf club for Marion
county to the amount of $500. This
week they offer to back fat pig club,
and have set aside $500 for this pro-
ject. This bank fully appreciates the
value of pure-bred livestock to the
county and in a commendable spirit of
helpfulness is giving strong support
to the development of the livestock
industry, both for breeding purposes
and for meat production.
So far, the object of the pig club
work has been to bring in breeding
animals to improve the native hogs.
This plan is we'll fulfilling it's purpose,
and has encouraged the use of 5ettttee-
blood and made it p ~esiDle to place
pure-bred animals in many sections of
the county that could not otherwise
easily have secured a start in full
blood hogs. Many boys have sold
breeding stock from their registered
gifts and made money.
But all the club boys and hog grow
ers of the county cannot hope to breed
pure-bred hogs for breeding stock.
AS soon as the most of the farms are
supplied with few good animals,
there will not be a big demand for
breeding stock and only the few who
know how to improve the breeds will
be able to sell breeding animals
Therefore, the bulk of the hogs must
be grown for meat. and it is the idea
Of the Ocala National Bank to show
through the work of the boys that i'm
proved animals are profitable for meat
as we'll as for breeding stock. AS the
boys have helped to bring good BLOOD
into use, and have had a big part il
bringing about the wonderful ad.
,, varcement in the swine industry the
past few years. they can assist il
spreading a better knowledge of feed
ing for meat production.
AS in case of all the clubs, the ia
! pig club will be carried on under tn,
direction of the county agent. Full
blood, barrow pigs will be selected anC
fed for one hundred days. Feeding
!. will be started August LIST, and tn
/. pigs should weigh then about Is
|. pounds. The agreement will be that
!. complete record of all feeds and cost
l. must be kept and that the pigs mus
,' be shown at the Marion County Fai
|, in November to be sold at auction an
/, then taken to the State Fair at Jack
/. scnville. The money offered by tn
l. bank will be used to buy pigs for boy
who wish to enter the contest and
/. provide ample prizes for those boy
/. who make the best showings. Any BIO
between the ages of ten and eighteen
eligible and any of the standar
! breeds of hogs is permissible.
4. It is hoped that the boys of til
a. county will take lively interest
q. this new club and do as good work g
n. they have in the first pig club plal
q. Those who will have a spring lite
L. from their gilt will have a good OF

to the boys in the fat pig club.

The criticism of Cary Hardee's
platform by the Lakeland Star is fun
ny. The Star wants Mr.. Hardee to
go into a lengthy detail on every
question, a policy which if pursued
would make his platform, instead of a
newspaper article. small book, which
if published in the different news
papers would be too lengthy for the
people to read. 1t would also take
more money than the law allows g
candidate to spend to pay for such
publication, and, also, again, the Star
demands that Mr.. Hardee express
himself on matters which the cover.
nor has no business with until the
legislature has acted. We shall see il
Mr.. Bloom makes such a demand or
his own candidate. His candidate
however, unless we mistake, will not
come out like Mr.. Hardee with clear
cut declaration. He will jellyfsh
around the state and try to be al
things to all men.

be an important crop in the state this
year and that the farmers. who give
this crop proper attention, will likely
receive satisfactory returns. Seed are

bility of fertilizers being higher later

THE REASON WHY
Explanation Given Which Explains
Efficacy of 1O1 Tonic

There are three important ingre-
clients in DR.. Williams 1O1 Tonic. each
enc of which has an important duty.
They are Quinine, Iron and Mag
nesia. The quinine in the tonic clears
the blood of all Influenza, malaria
OF other harmful germs. The iron
builds up the rich. healthy. strength
ening blood which puts stamina into
the weakened body. and the magnesia
acts gently on the liver and bowels,
cleaning away the accumulated pois-
Ons.
This combination is of known
worth for the treatment of Colds, La
Grippe, Fever. Chills, Influenza and
Malaria.
During last years influenza cpl
demic the sales Of 101 Tonic increased
over 500 per cent. This is proof a
plenty of the value of this remedy fol-

THE MEDICAL BOOZE FAKE

A writer in the New York Tribune
says:
A statement appeared within few
days that arrangements were being
made with the Ligget drug stores to
carry whisky in stock for "the relief
of influenza sufferers" 1t does not
seem credible that many physicians of
a city like New York can really be-
lieve that whisky or any other alco-
holic liquor is of service in the treat
ment of an infectious disease unless it
may be in quoting the restlessness of
the patient. 1t would be unobjection
able to use alcohol for this purpose il
it were not that alcohol weakens the
heart, hinders the white blood cells in
their work of destroying the disease
germs, hinders the production of anti
bodies and interferes with the cleans
ing of the blood by it's effect upon
respiration. The fact is, as told US
| by men of the highest standing in the
medical profession, a sick person has
a double fight when alcohol is given,
a fight against the disease and fight
iagainst the effects of the liquor In
weakening his resistance. Thus more
deaths occur when alcohol is given.
The American Medical Association
lat it's annual meeting held in New
! York in 1917 declared that the use OF
alcohol in therapeutics Gas tonic, OF

While there is no epidemic of flu in
this county. it behooveth everybody
to be careful. We saw number of
children going to school thru the
rain this morning, without umbrellas
or other protection. If a child gets
it's clothing damp on the way to
school, and after reaching the school
house sits, or even stands for a few
minus in draft, it is likely to catch
a severe cold, which may turn to
something worse. Parents should not
allow their children to go out unpro-
tected in this sort of weather.
