HOME OF RUFUS MAxEY
BURNS; NOTHING SAVED

The home of Rufus Maxey, about
about three miles north of town,
caught fire on last Thursday even
ing, and bunerd to the ground. Mr..
Maxey was off in the field blowing
and did not know anything about it
until he heard some Of the neighbors
screaming, while Mrs. Maxey, his
wife, had started to town and was
about half way when some one told
her that her house was on fire.
The house caught from a flue and
nothing was saved with the excep-
ton of four pillows, one sheet, two
quilts and a chair, which things
were on the front porch, where Mrs.
Maxey had put them out to air. Mr..
Maxey saved his meat, but the
house and household goods were all
lost. Mr.. Maxey had no insurance
on either the house or goods.

believe you need dose of danger
Gus calomel just remembe rthat your

bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone,
witch is entirely vegetable and pleas
ant to take and is a perfect substi-
tute for calomel. 1t is guaranteed
to start your liver without stirring
you up inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel. 1t can not be

DECORATION DAY OBSERY-
ED AT DRESDEN SUNDAY


Decoration day was fittingly OBJ
served at the Dresden cemetery Sum
day, when Rev. C. L. Smith delivered
a short address and some good songs
were rendered. A good crowd as
sembled at the cemetery at the APP
pointed hour and placed flowers on
the graves of their loved ones and
friends. This is a service that we
all owe to our friends and loved
ones gone to the great beyond. We
can at least devote one Sunday af-
ternoon in the year to service of
this kind. The cemetery has been
well kept the past year by the work
of some of the ladies'.

Summer Troubles and Their Cures

Summer Troubles and Their Cures
"Unless a reasonable amount OF
time is given over to the care Of the
car, summer touring resolves itself
into one interruption after another"
says A. J. Comfy, in the May issue
of MOTOR. This writer proceeds
to discuess the troubles that usually
develop in summer and to indicate
the remedies for them. For in
stance:
cat this time Of the year, when
night driving is so popular, one OF
the most serious troubles is brought
about by the failure of the head
lamps. In order to keep the battery
at full efficiency it is necessary to
bring each cell to level at least once
each week. If this is not done the
excessive evaporation due to extra
charging and summer heat reduces
quickly the volume of electrolyte.
The battery ought to be tested
weekly, connections cleaned and the
cables and wires to the rest Of the
system gone over"

94,299 FORD CARS
PUT OUT IN MARCH

March broke all production rec
urds ever made by the Ford Motor
Company, Detroit, both for the
number of cars produced in one day
and one month. March ~, 4,256
cars left the assembly lines at the
home plant and branches, while the
record for the month was 94,299
cars. These figures represent pro-
duction in the United States only,
and do not take into consideration
the Canadian or foreign plants,
Moss & Whitcomb, local distributors,
say.
Here's an illustration Of the
amount of railroad cars it would
take to ship this vast swarm Of Fords.
Loaded six in a freight car with
so freight cars to each train, it
would take 814 trains to carry
them, and there would be enough
left over to start a parade.
Notwithstanding the fact that pro-
duction in April dropped to less than
so per cent Of normal, because OF
the strike, Ford officials say that
for the fiscal year, which ends July
80, they win have attained the mill
lion mark 81 prodantion.

Care of the Hood

Care of the Hood
1t is weel recognized fact that
the finish on the hood dulls before
that on the rest of the car, due main
ly to the extremes of temperature
which the hood has to undergo. 1t
is very good plan to wipe off the
hood when you get back into the
garage after a run in the rain, be-
cause the water dries to warmth,
and the drops are almost sure to spot,
in time gradually dulling the finish.
Of course, it goes without saying
that any cars finish is better for
being wiped off all over after being
wet, but this particularly is import
ant for the bonnet.-Motor Life.

Down Come the Rentals.

Everything is coming down. Each
| days news brings us announcements OF
reductions in the price of something
| or other. First it was automobiles
| and Henry Ford's lead has been quick
~ followed by about half of the other
motor car manufacturers. Then it was
clothing, shoes. cotton good, food
prices, restaurant prices and even the
big mail order houses announced a
startling reduction in all prices.
Now comes the announcement from
Chicago that the owner of number OF
apartments announced a 10 per cent
reduction for October 1. The dispatch
was published in the Philadelphia In
quirer, as follows:
u. A. Greenburg, who owns a num-
Der of apartment buildings, today an
nounced ten per cent reduction in
all rents, effective October /, and
states that a SIMILAR reduction would
be made next May. We are follow
ing in the footsteps of the manufac-
turers in the country who have inau
gurated a decline in prices" Mr..
Greenburg said. Opinion among real
estate men here is that Greenburg's
cutting in prices of rents and apart
ments. Threats of prosecution also are
expected to hurry the movement"
There are several significant state
ments in this brief dispatch that land
lords in Florida would do well to con-
slider. Here is a landlord in the sec
ond largest city in the United States,
who must have seen the handwriting
on the wall, offering to cut twenty
per cent on his rentals in six months,
while many of the landlords in Flor
ida are preparing to ask an increase
of that much. Mr.. Greenburg says he
is following in the footsteps of the
manufacturers, who have inaugurated
a decline in prices but the dispatch in
Inmates that threats of prosecution may
have had something to do with it and
these threats are expected to result in
a general drop in rental prices.
The prices charged for houses,
apartments and buildings generally
have been the highest in the history
of the country and it is we'll known
that the increased expenses have not
warranted this in many instances. At
any rate there is nothing to warrant
any further increase in rentals and
the landlords who attempt such a
course will be marked for future treat
ment by those who are seeking houses

$4,000
The state produces and ships each
year an average of 5000 carloads OF
winter grown tomatoes total larger
than that of all other states combined.
Florida farms, groves. poultry and
dairy products have attained a value
of at least s150,000,000 annually. The
last year for which complete figures
are available is 1917, when the value OF
these products was shown to be slight
ly more than s120,000,000. 1t is esti-
mated that if all the lands available
for and adapted to cultivation of one
kind or another were made productive
the value of these products would be
close to $1,000, 100000 annually.
The fine county of Lee Is shown
TO contain 4641 square miles of
territory-an area greater than Rhode

Press Comment

Another Twentieth Century Triumph.
Utter destruction of enemy shipping
without the loss of single life on the
part of the attacking force is possible
as the result of tests that have Just
been completed by the battIeships
Ohio and Indiana off the Virginia
capes.
Reports of the rnaneuvers, which
have been submitted by Rear Admiral
Robert S. Griffin, chief of the bureau
of steam engineering, by Captain John
Halligan, class the radio direction ex-
periments as entirely successful.
The plan, which has been worked
out with the utmost secrecy by the
Navy Department, is an expansion Of
the idea invented by John Hays Ham
mond, Jr.. that ships could be COZ:
trolled and directed by wireless. The
Germans were the first to make US
of 1t In war. During the many at
tacks made on Zeebrugge they direct
ed a smill ship of 900 tons against the
attacking fleet from shore wirless STA
tions.
The tests which the Navy Depart
ment has just concluded involved the
operation of vessel of more than a.
600 tons from aboard another vessel
The Ohio. during the tests. was di-
rected by wireless apparatus aboard
the Indiana. Without a directing hand
on her own decks being employed she
maneuvered, circled, reversed and
turned exactly as the orders were
given aboard the Indiana.
The possibilities of the new inven-
ton are nmitless. according to naval
officials. The strength of the guiding
wireless equipment alone viii be the
gauge of what can be accomplished,
and undoubtedly It will prove a new
