ARE BUILDING UP oCALA

Among the men who are building
Ocala, none are more assiduous than
Carl Ray and John Thomson. They
have surely filled in a number of va
cant places in the last year or two.
Particularly out on East Fort King,
which not long ago was mostly pas
ture. On this thorofare are the hand
some and conveniently built bunga-
lows of Earl Hall, w. w. Clyatt, C. w.
Moremen and Joe Blalock, beside an
other of the neat and pretty dwellings,
which hasn't been sold. DR.. Moremen
and family have been in their home
several months, and the others viii be
soon finished and occupied Some of
the buildings were on the Ray -Thom-
son Company's land, built and sold;
others built by them on the owners
lands. Earl Halls house, on the Hall
property at the top of the hill is a
genuine little palace; the others, tho
smaller ARE all gems of houses. With
the construction of Costello's big store
on Broadway. and other contracts in
sight, Ray & Thomson are certainly
going to leave their marks on 0eala.

KEEPING OUT THE
JAPANESE CAMPHOR

Gainesville, July 27.-The state
plant board is taking precautions
against the possible spread of an in
sect known as japanese camphor,
into this state. The insect, which at
tacks fruit trees especially, was only
recently discovered at New Orleans.
Until its appearance in that city,
about a year ago. the pest was vir-
tually unknown in this country. And
while citrus trees are said to be its
principal object of attack it also af-
fects shade trees and shrubs.
An assistant quarantine inspector
for the plant board stationed at Pen
sacola, is said to have been the first
TO discover the presence of the insect
at New Orleans, when he seized a
shipment of infected nursery stock
from New Orleans consigned to one
Of F1orida's largest nursery concerns.

FLORIDA NEED NOT
BE FRIGHTENED
Scarce and Widely Scattered are the
Cases of PeIlagra in
Our State

In view of the fact that pellagra is
said to be in almost epidemic form
throughout the South, the state board
of health of Florida wishes it to be
known that so far as Florida is con-
cerned this disease is but slightly
prevalent here.
Statistics show that during the last
four years deaths from this disease
have greatly decreased. But in order
that the people of Florida may be able
to recognize this disease and know
what to do to escape it, the state
board of health is distributing thruout
the state literature describing the
disease, its cause, prevention and the
method of treatment.
1t is not contagious or infectious.
The exact origin of pellagra is stiR
unknown but recent Investigations by
the United States Public Health Serv-
ice seems to show almost conclusively
that the disease is due to a continued
lack, for long periods of time, of the
necessary variety of the daily diet
No single article of food has been
shown to be the cause of pellagra.
Pellagra produces three distinct
groups of symptoms: l, the skin symp-
toms; 2. the gastro-intestinal symp-
toms; 8, nervous and mental symp-
toms.
1. The skin symptoms appear as a
dark reddish, scaly eruption, usually
en- the exposed surface of the body,
as the backs of the hands and fore
arms, the feet and legs. Less often
the eruption occurs on the neck and
other portions of the body. A pecu-
liarity of this eruption is the fact
that it is practically always symmet-
rical on the two sides of the body.
2. Tn gastro-intestinal symptoms
manifest themselves in the mouth,
stomach and intestines. The mouth
becomes sore and of a brighter color
red. The tongue is sore and usually
shows a cracked fissured edge. Any
one of number of different stomach
complaints may be observed. The pa
tient usually complains of indigestion.
Diarrhoea is often characteristic in
that it begins early in the morning
and continues until the middle of the
day, when it ceases entirely.
8. The nervous and mental symp-
toms usually appear in the later
stages of the disease, and may vary
from mild nervous manifestations to
violent mania. A very large pro-
portion of all cases terminate in in
sanity. Melancholia is probably the
type of insanity most frequently OBJ
served.
TREATMENT AND PREVENTION
In view of the results of the studies
by the United States Public Health
Service, the treatment as well as the
prevention of the diesase had best be
Instituted along dietetic lines.
A more varied diet, including milk
eggs, fish, meat and vegetables is ad.
vised. The leguminous plants. espe-
cially beans are said to be of unusual
value in the diet of pellagrins. 1t is
to be hoped that further studies viii
reveal more definite information re
garding the causation and treatment
of this disease. For the present, how
seem to have brought forth more sat
isfatcory results than any other of th'
widely differing views which have beer
advanced concerning this malady

IN FEARFUL CONDITION

The Johnson City, Tenn, old sol
diers' home was characterized as a

Md, hospital as being fit only for a
sewerage disposal plant today by
Colonel Charels r. Forbes, war risk
insurance director, before the Senate
cornittee in an appeal for broad pow
ers to meet hospital needs of world
war veterans.
Forbes said that liquor and mar
cotics are being sold among the 900
former service men quartered at
the, Johnson City home, and the war
risk bureau is powerless to correct
the situation on account of lack of
jurisdiction. Gun toting was declared
common and he added when the pa
tients take their attendants and throw
them out there is something radically
wrong.
INTEND TO GIVE NEGROES AID
An announcement that it had un~

which will be extended until such time
as the negro unions may be admitted
to membership by the railroad broth
erhoods, including freight handlers,
was given.
