MARION COUNTY AT THE
SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR
(By Frank L. Huffaker)

Just to more thoroughly establish
in the minds of homeseekers from
other and less favored states the fact
that South Florida is as strong in the
important matter of staple crop rais-
ing and thoroughbred stock breeding
Jas in the production of golden citrus
fruits and fancy-priced vegetables,
the versatile county of Marion. of
which Ocala is the county seat, is to
he represented at the South Florida
Fair by the largest and most varied
Exhibit brought down from that sec
tion since the old state fair days.
Needless to say, that means "some"
showing. The exhibit will be In
charge of County Agent w. A. Ses-
SONS.
That the lands of Marion are equal
to those of the corn belt of the middle
west for staple crop production is well
known to thousands; in fact, Marion
county is really a "slice" of southern
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio transplant
cd in Florida-with the climate and
Icther advantages of Florida added.
Thus a magnificent exhibit of the
fifty-ffty variety-50 per cent staples
ard so per cent citrus fruits as
sured.
Marion is the pioneer county of
Florida in the breeding of thorough
bred livestock of all kinds, having
earned the honor through the activi-
ties of the late 2. G.. Chambliss and
other noted breeders. The breeders
have won grand prizes IN the past
and Marion is going out for another
lrecord in February.

MILLERAND DOES
NOT HAVE A GUARD

Paris, Oct. 17.-President MiIlerand
has amazed some of the old residents
of Paris by appearing on the streets
of the city apparently without a
guard. Scores of persons recognized
the French president when he walked
the other day from the Elysee Palace
through the Champs Elysees toward
the Seine and his progress was mark
e6 by succession of bows. Not a
detective was in sight.
This is in sharp contrast to the
practice of most former presidents.
Few of them ever have ventured forth
alone and in most cases they have
been surrounded by strong guard
OF detectives or police. M Millerand's
democratic conduct in this respect has
caused much comment and increased
his popularity.

GERMAN WORKERS
DON'T FAVOR A SOVIET

Berlin, Oct. 1.-THE first congress
of shop soviets recently held here re-
fused to 60 on record as favoring the
soviet government of Russia. There
was a sharp clash between the COM
nunists and independent socialists
over the question but the motion was
voted down. About 1000 delegates
ATTENDED the meeting.
The workers in the German indus
trial and commercial establishments,
who are now given an active voice IN
administration of them, were impress
ed in the congress with the need of
conserving raw products so that Ger
many may produce sufficient finished
commodities to enable her to establish
credits abroad with which to pay for
the importation of the most necessary
food and raw materials.
Rudolph Wissel, formerly minister
of economics, said that German tex
tile and iron industries were in need
of foreign supplies. The 28,000,00O
tons of ore which Germany formerly
lobtained from Alsace-Lorraine and
II.uxemburg must now be procured
through foreign credits. The Yer
sailles treaty had deprived the nation
of one-third of its grain producing
areas while the remaining soil had
been impoverished by intensified war
time cultivation and lack of fertilizers
The former minister ascribed the
Ipresent economic crisis to under
production, denying that it was due tc
over consumption and he declared
that Germany would be forced to sub
sjst on small rations for long time.

AUTO SALES cOMPANY'S
MODERN IMPROVEMENTS

Mr.. Mack Taylor. proprietor of the
Auto Sales Company of this city and
agent for the Dodge automobiles, has
about completed improvements on his
building inside and out, making it not
only one of the most attractive and
neatest institutions of it's kind in the
city, but completely equipped with
the parts that make up this popular
car that at least five automobiles could
be built right in his shop.
The Office is most inviting and COM
Portable. It is enclosed from the rest
Of the building by canary beaver
board with trimmings of blue, the
color Of the Dodge advertising matter.
The rear of the building is sectioned
off for car service and can be entered
from the back or side, or if necessary
from the front. It is so neatly and
conveniently arranged that it only re-
quires second to find the most
ninute, or largest necessity for car
trouble. Mr.. Taylor believes in filling
orders for his customers Immediately
and when there is a call for any part
of the Dodge car he has it right at
hand.
On the outside of this building to
the left he has arranged for the wash
ing and polishing of all makes of cars
The wash rack is equipped with q
spraying device of compressed air and
water, in this manner preserving the
paint on the car.
Mr.. Taylor viii further enhance the
attractiveness of his place by adding
ferns, as he had already done at the
Willard service station and it is one
of the beauty spots of the city.

Alice has one, who is much given to

ways bids her an eternal farewell and

days later, he again visits her and
makes peace overtures.
The other girl had long listened
sympathetically to him whenever shs
happened to be along during a quar-
rel. But the other evening she lis
tened TO one which really amused her.
And when the young man dramatically
tore up a poem he had written to
Alice she almost laughed.
The next morning she did really
laugh when she retraced her steps of
the night before and found just what
she had expected-blank pieces of pa
per. The man had provided himself
with folded paper, exactly like the
one on which was the poem he priced
so highly, and had 1t ready for just

PLOW AND CULTIVATE
TO KILL JUNE BUGS
Beetles Are Parents of White
Grub, Harmful to Corn.
1t Takes Three Years for One of In
sects to Develop From Egg Which
Is Deposited in Meadows and
Sometimes In cornfelds.
By CHARLES C. wENTzLER)

CBy CHARLES c. wENTZLER)
Have you ever seen the so-called
June bug. buzzing around an electric
walk in the gray of a spring morning?
They are a big, dark-brown beetle
and at night when they bump against
the window panes or fly humping
against the ceiling make you crawl and
hunt for the broom.
These laundering, awkward beetles,
of which the chickens and birds are so
fond. are the parents of the corn pest
known as the white grub" which
feeds on the roots of the plants and
destroys them.
Millions of them are destroyed in
spring by hungry birds and myriad
others go down to death in swarming
around the arc lights of a city. They
are so sensitive to light that a flame.
miles away, will attract them.
1t takes three years for one of these
beetles to develop from the egg. The
beetles deposit their eggs in meadows
and sometimes in cornfelds. The tiny
grubs which emerge from the eggs de-
velop into thick, fleshy. white grubs
which are also much sought for by
birds. When matured they are fully
one and one-half inches long.
Luckily for Mr.. Beetle, the grub
spends most of his three years in the
soil out of the reach of enemies. Diff
ferent beetles, however, are complet-
ing their growth every year and so
we have the June bug with US each
spring.
All corn is apt to suffer from them
but owing to the habit of the beetle in
deposting its eggs in meadows, corn
that is planted in newly turned sod is
/ more apt to suffer from these pests.
The best way TO destroy them is to
+ pillow and cultivate so that their
natural food is destroyed and they are
starved to death before planting the
4 field Some farmers let the chickens
follow the pillow and destroy hundreds
of them in this way.
