FAIRFIELD VS.. MCINTOSH

Fairfield, Jan. 27.-On last Friday
evening the Fairfield girls basketball
team met the Mcintosh team on the
Fairfield grounds and despite the fact
that the opposing team was for the
most part made up of veterans of the
game, they succeeded in carrying off
the honors to the tune of 25 to IL.
The Mcintosh guards were especial
~ strong, one of them being a one
time captain of the Woman's College
team of Tallahassee, but the Fairfield
forwards would not be denied
This was the fastest game yet
played by the Fairfield team, but eve
ryone of the team was in first class
condition and was able to put up a
strong fight all the way through, the
guards and centers contributing
largely to the result by keeping the
ball where the forwards could use it.
il was Fairfeld's game from start to
finish.
The Fairfield girls would like to
book a few more games with schools
of similar size They play a strictly
schoolgirl team although none of
their opponents thus far have been so.

annual South Florida Fair and Gas

Tor nine-day period and during
which a record attendance not only
of Floridians, but of homeseekers
from other states, is confidently ex-
pected. Tampans are preparing to
house and feed the visitors at reason

present whether good or evil predom-

that spills money is at present COM
paartively scarce. There are not half
so many in Ocala as there were year
ago and the same story comes from
other parts. We have heard of hun

list hotels being cancelled, and are in
formed that unless matters pick up
soon many of said hotels will soon
close for the season. They may make
up for lost time IN the next two
months, but the outlook is now doubt

The Gainesville Sun says that Ku-

Gainesville, and we have no doubt
that an attempt to organize similar

Ocala will give the movement the cold

IL unnecessary and considerably harm
full. An organization of the sort will
do Ocala damage in the minds of
thinking men all over the country.
There was a time when the Kuklux
Khan was needed to save the South

men. There is no such need now and
no such men going into this feeble
imitation of what was once a great

there is a movement in rapid motion

Peculiar Condition Created.
Specialized farming has created
conditions of which comparatively few
persons are aware. The grain farmer
in many instances buys even his pota-
toes and green vegetables; the fruit
farmer buys his dairy products; and
even the man who raises milk for
creamery, condensary or cheese fac
tory is likely to send his cream or
milk away, feed the skim milk or whey
to the calves, and not make his own
butter. This year, Just as far as pos
