US. GOVERNMENT
MANIFESTATION
Mr.. NJ. S. Virgins Will Have Desk
in Board of Trade Room Dur
ing Melon Season

The 1920 watermelon season in
Marion and adjoining counties opens
tomorrow with the arrival here of Mr..
M. S. Wiggins, representative of the
United States bureau of markets, who
has taken a desk in the Office of the
Marion County Board of Trade in
Ocala. Mr.. Virgins will begin issu-
ing market reports about noon tomor-
row and will issue them about the
same hour each day during the melon
shipping period. The market station
he is opening here is one of six
throughout the United States.
The rains have done some damage
to the watermelon crop in this section
of the state, but it is expected that
the shipments from this section will
exceed those of last year. In Marion
county alone there are something like
250O acres in watermelons.
The market bulletin service will be
mailed to all points in Florida from
this station during the watermelon
season. The bulletins will be sent
free to any one whose address is sent
to Mr.. M. S. Wiggins. care of Mar
ion County Board of Trade, OcaIa,
Florida.

crops and in turning them under to
get humus.
Mr.. Ref, with his brother, John
Ref, and Charles Gutsclag. came to
Marion county, from Henry county,
Illinois, in the fall of 1913. They
bought 1850 acres of land near Mar
tin. Up until last year they farmed
on this tract together, having much
clearing to do. They have now divid-
ed the tract and are farming sepa-
rately. Mr.. Matt Reif is farming the
largest acreage of the three, having
more land cleared. His success is
typical of the others who have follow
ed him in the move from Illinois to
Florida. Three barns, one of which
is concrete and just completed, and
over 100 head of pure blooded Duroc-
Jersey hogs, indicate the character of
farming he is doing. Mr.. Ref is
planting some truck. and at present
has twenty acres in melons. His main
crops are corn, velvet beans and pea
nuts, and has always made enough Of
these to give him a surplus, for which
he has found ready market and
good prices. He has baled and mar
keted hay.
Too many have made the mistake
of attempting to farm in Florida, says
Mr.. Ref, without the knowledge of
farming and without sufficient capital,
and, for these reasons there have been
failures. There is now quite a colony
of Illinois farmers at Martin, all of
whom have done well, and if there
Is anyone who doubts the possibili-
ties of farming in Florida let him

GILCHRIST'S VIEWS
ON THE PEACE TREATY
Punta Gorda, June 9th.

Punta GOrda, June 9TH.
Editor Star: The treaty of peace
with Germany embodies in part l, the
covenant of the league of nations, in
part 49, what | call the covenant Of
the league of labor, being labor's
worldwide Magma Charta. On the last
vote in the u. S. Senate, on March 19,
1920, 81 senators went on record as
favoring this treaty with the So
called Lodge reservations included,
seven more are necessary to ratify
it. For the Lodge reservation to ar
tible 10, the president calling article
10 the heart of the league, over two
fifths of the senators are known to
favor it. For the Simmons reserga-
tion to article 10. every democrat who
went on record, excepting those DEM
Ocrats who favor the Lodge reserva-
tions, and excepting the two who are
opposed to the treaty in toto, and
excepting Williams, democrat. Mis-
sissippi, who alone went on record as
opposing both. voted for the Sim
mons reservation. Simmons is a
democrat from North Carolina. If any
democrat can swallow the Simmons
reservation he can swallow the Lodge
reservation to article 10, for they are
identical in meaning. Now how many
sane men believe this treaty can pos
sibly be ratified except with practical
ly these reservations? There are 49
republican senator's, all opposed to the
treaty except with reservations; II
opposed to it in toto. There are 47
democratic senators, "A of whom went
on record as opposing the ratification
of the treaty with the reservations,
two of them being totally opposed to
it; 25 went on record favoring the
ratification, including the Lodge res
ervations. How many sane men be-
lieve this treaty can be ratified except
with these reservations? In the
Georgia primary April 20. 1920, prac-
tically One-third voted for a candidate
for nomination for president who op-
posed the treaty in toto; one-fifth eor
a candidate who favored the treaty
with the Lodge reservations; one
| third for a candidate who was for the
treaty without reservations. Conclus-
ion: Two-thirds voted against the
treaty as it came from France. I am

"COUNTING THE GAME"

In his speech last night. Mr.. Har-
dee, to show the voters how his op-
ponents had been double-teaming on
him, gave the following illustration:
Sitting in hotel one day watching
four travelling men playing setback,
he noticed that whenever one of the
began to win, the other three played
against him, and if another should
then come dangerously near winning,
the other three played against hin.
Mr.. Hardee said DIR. Hulley and Mr..
Swearingen were playing against him
but he had already caught Hulley's
jack and Swearingen's deuce, and
hoped today to outcount them for
game.
The Ocala evening star., 1920-06-08

and of the relatively rapid approach
o fthe period in which their reaIiza-
tion will be practicable, is tending to
decide the attitude toward information
al affairs of large and increasing
section of the American people.
"How many of the inhabitants Of
Europe understand or even know all
that is meant by the steady shifting
OF the center of gravity toward the
west of the great American republic?
How many of US in western Europe
still conceive of the United States as
the country to the east of the Missis-
sippi, or perhaps as only the country
to the east of the Alleghanies and
Lake Michigan? Yet we have but to
glance at a map of the republic to see
proof of the imposing development of
the vast territory west of the Goth, and
even of the Tooth, meridian of west
longitude. The whole of it is cover
ed with organized and prosperous
states, is studded with gerat cities,
is covered with innumerable lines of
railway.
"The population west of the Tooth
meridian is already one of millions,
and is increasing; moreover. it in
clUdes some of the most enterprising
and energetic people in the world.
The abundant natural resources are
still only in the early stages of de-
velopment
at is not surprising that to these
people the Pacific ocean should be
what the Atlantic has been to their
fellow citizens east of the ninetieth
meridian. Many of them, perhaps
the best of them, are descendants Of
the hardy pioneers who went in long
migratory trains to what was called,
within living memory, the Great
West. Instinct and the well-remem-
bered predictions of their fathers
combine to induce them to turn their
backs on the Atlantic ocean and the
Europe that lies beyond it.
"Japan has come forth as a world
power on an equality with the great
states of the west; China-China of
all countries-has become a republic.
Is it any wonder that the inhabitants
of the western half of the United
States should find themselves intui-
lively, unconsciously trying to cast
the horoscope of Asia?
"South of the line also there are,
on both sides of the Pacific, impor-
tant and progressive communities
with which great and profitable COM
merce can be conducted. Besides the
Hawaiian Islands the United States
already has many insular stepping
stones in the Pacific between the
western coast of the republic and the
Philippines.
"Intent contemplation of the prob
abilities of the future connected with
| conditions In the Pacific ocean may
well so occupy the minds of the west
ern people of the great American re-
public that Indifference to the affairs
OF Europe is inevitable. Whatever
their minds may be occupied with, it
has to be taken into account by those
who aspire to direct the opinions of
the country at large"

COMPARISON Of FLORIDA
WITH ILLINOIS
Matt Ref Says Farming is More Profit
able in Marion County.

Matt Ref, who has been in Marion
county since 1913, says that farming
is more profitable in Florida than in
Illinois. Mr.. Ref is from Kewanee,
Ill. For given amount of capital
invested the farmer can make a
greater return in Florida, says Mr..
Reif, who gives this as his opinion
after seven years of farming near
Martin in this county. The reason for
this is that the climate of Florida
gives the farmer a longer growing
period, making possible the planting
of more crops in a year, and making
it possible to follow any crop that
fails with another crop the same sea-
son. Since coming to Marion county
Mr.. Ref has paid for his land, put
substantial improvements on it, and
put money in the bank. He says that
he would have done even better if he
had possessed more capital.
Mr.. Reif believes that successful
farming must be built upon a basis
of livestock. He believes in putting
back into the soil as much or more
than is taken from it. This fall,
therefore, he intends building a con-
crete barn for his cattle, not because
cattle need any housing in Florida but
for the purpose of getting manure
with which to replenish the fertility
of the soil. He will also build a con-
crete manure vat, following a plan
that he has himself worked out. He
has herd of grade cattle on his
farm, headed by a pure-blooded Aber-
deen-Angus bull. He believes in cover

AMERICAN AND AUSTRALIAN
INTERESTS IN THE PACIFIC
ARE IDENTICAL
IN. Y. Tribune's European Bureau)

IN. Y. Tribune's European Bureau)
London-"It is not Americas indif-
ference to European affairs so much
as her interest in the Pacific"
This is the gist of what has been
expressed by a distinguished admiral,
Sir Cyprian A. G. Bridge, and the
Australian treasurer, w. A. Watt.
The treasurer has just reached Lon
don and in repeated speeches and in
terviews has reiterated the view that
the world center of the future will be
in the Pacific, that America has ;den-
tical interests with the British COM
monwealth he represents-realizes
the common danger and is building
great fighting ships for Pacific wa
tiers.
Mr.. Watts primary concern is to
obtain voice for Australia at the
time the Anglo-Japanese alliance Is
renewed. But from opinion in official
circles the alliance will be renewed
by its own terms without discussion.
However, he voiced his apprehensions
in the following manner:
Australia always will be for the
white man and the white man only.
The world center of the future will
be in the Pacific and the three coun-
tries vitally concerned will be Amer
lea, Japan and Australia.
"Great Britain is our mother coun-
try and we shall remain loyal to her
as such. but it is plainly to be seen
that in the possibility of a great
Notwithstanding conflict the interests
of America and Australia will be
identical. Australia today is prac-
tically defenseless. We are of the
firm opinion that Australia can never

Possibilities of the Pacific

thority on international relations, hiss

Times" He does not raise the jingo
fear, but bases his opinion on the
natural development of America west
ward, her insular possessions in the
Pacific and her, therefore, natural de-
sire to cast the horoscope of Asia.
Here is what he says:

not take long to warrant the con-

Here is Mr.. Moores letter TO The
Washington Times:
Good Fellow Department, The Wash
ington Times:
81 noted in your paper a call for
subscriptions TO provide Christmas
: dinner for many Of the unfortunate
families of the District, and first
want TO say that your orga" ization
deserves nothing but praise for this
commendable act OF cooperation.
MRS. Moore and l have found much
[ real enjoyment in Our efforts to put
a bright spot in the lives OF unfor-
Inmates, especially ut Christmas time.
and I wish you would send me the
names of ten families, in order that
we, may prepare to purchase a Christ
mas dinner for them. take it for
granted that our understanding of
how to best provide such a dinner
for them would be as follows: That
we. put turkey in each basket, with
vegetables, etc, consistent with the
size OF the family, and also to prepare
TO. deliver same, which l can \do by
having my chauffeur take same
around Christmas Eve. I can also
: provide to have coal and wood, milk
and cream. etc, delivered. In other
words, I assume that you would best
appreciate the subscription to in
clude everything necessary (such as
coal and wood, etc., in order that the
families may not want for fuel to
cook the dinners with. 1t would also
be our pleasure to deliver the food
and coal direct. so as to save your
organization the trouble of delivering
our subscriptions. as we can sppre-
ciato that the detail falling upon you
will be very great.
''We are thankful for the good for
tune that enables us TO make such
worthy subscription and we are
thankful that Washington has a
