orally for stock so that the concern
may be put into operation on a sound
basis and with sufficient funds to
operate and increase its equipment as
the cows are being brought IN that are
sure to come.
The writer's attention has been call
ed TO three parties within the past
two weeks who have enquired as to q
market for dairy products IN this
county. They are many others win
come in and make good citizens If the
creamery is established. On the other
hand three of our good substantial
farmers have spoken Of moving to
other sections If it is not dcne.

CONSIDERATION OF
THE CREAMERY

The consideration of the creamery
question was occasioned by the re-
quest of two dairymen, and some other
farmers, for some such thing to give
them a market for their milk, and
through their cows market for other
stuffs produced on their farms.
Market Conditions
Upon investigation it was found
that all dairy products are higher IN
Florida than in any other state in the
United States. The governments
"Fluid Milk Market Reports" show
that milk dealers in Miami and Tam
pa pay farmers an average of about
twice as much per hundred pounds for
whole milk as is paid In any other
market. The figures for the month
of April show: Jacksonville 4.79 per
cents; Miami $50 to 14.65 per cent;
Tampa, 4.65 per cent. The next high
est market, Washington, d. C., 4.1S
per cent. For July: Jacksonville (not
given); Miami, $40 per cent; Tampa,
4.80 to $40 per cent; Atlanta, Ga,
2.71 per cent; San Diego, Cal, 3.85
per cent; Chicago, 2.S3 per cent; New
York. $40 per cent; Cleveland, 2.80
per cent.
All the year around we are import
ing into the state by far more dairy
products than are produced in Flor
ida All our grocery stores handle
creamery butter from the north and
west. Car loads that make train loads
of whole milk, sweet cream, butter
and milk powders, canned milks, etc,
come into our state each month. Dur
ing the tourist season whole milk sells
higher in Florida than anywhere else
in the country Most of our ice cream
is made of sweet butter, milk powders
and water.
Production
Cows will give as much milk in Flor
ida as elsewhere. A number Of cows
in this tsate are registered of merit
producers. A few creameries are
making good. The often referred to
Brooksville creamery supported by
125 to $50 cows is still operating. In
a letter from the manager dated Aug.
9th he stated that he is now paying
40 cents per pound for butter fat;
that the patrons are satisfied so far
as he knows; and that they start
shipping whole milk August 18th.
There are a lot of cows in our coun-
ty being half fed and half milked that
viii be good producers when their
milk can be sold
Organization
In meetings this week AZ country
people subscribed for stock in the
creamery. At two places the rains
prevented meetings being held.
1t is proposed that a straight out
stock company be organized, TO be put
into the hands of board Of directors
composed of our own people. They
will select officers and employ COM
petent, experienced manager who viii
himself invest m stock in the COM
pany. We have been IN correspond
ence with several men who seem TO be
all right, and might be secured
In some other sections where cream
cries have been made 70 succeed the
business men interested IN the devel-
opment of their section and town have
donated large sums to push the enter
prise. This is not asked IN 0cala, but
our people are asked to subscribe lib

GIVING MARION
COUNTY THE COPY
State Highway Commission Seems
Given to the Policy of Shutting
OF Central Florida


Our readers will remember that
several days ago Chairman Philips
and Engineer Brown of the state
highway commission were in our
midst, that they met some of our
county commissioners and other prom
inent citizens, that they lunched at
the Rotary Club. that they promised
to help out Marion on the Dixie high
way, that they called a meeting for
an early date in Ocala for the COM
mission and as many good roadites as
could attend, that they said the press
had misrepresented the commission,
which the Star conceded might be so.
Joy was unconfned, the peace pipe
was smoked and the hatchet was
buried and everybody forgot where
the handle was. So Chairman Mef-
fert couldn't helpg being somewhat
shocked to receive the following let
ter:
State Road Department of Florida,
1diAdHdSoScB mug o. AVN4s
Mr. R. B. Meffert, Chairman,
Board County Commissioners, Ocala.:
Dear Sir: have called a meeting
of the department to be held in the
chamber of commerce building, Jack
sonville, on the 18th inst, one week
from today, to. consider the Marion
county matter.
/ suggest that you get your data as
to the amount of money you will
spend on this road, condition of the
road, its length, available materials
for road building, and other pertinent
matters, in shape so that they can be
submitted to the board. This is to be
strictly business meeting and it will
not be necessary for you to have a
big delegation there. The truth is,
the larger the delegation the less
amount of good is accomplished.
/ called the meeting to be held in
Jacksonville for the reason that /
found majority of the. members
preferred to meet in Jacksonville and
most of them know all the conditions
of this road, so it will not be necessary
to go over it personally.
Yours very truly,
H. B. Phillips, Chmn.
We daresay Messrs. Philips and
Browne were sincere in calling for a
meeting in Ocala, but they have since
heard their masters voices, else why
affront Ocala by changing the meet
ing place and bluntly informing US
that no more than absolutely neces-
sary would be welcome in Jackson
vile, from which it may be inferred
that nobody at all from Marion would
be welcomer still, with an accent on
the still.
We think that we have right to in
fer, from the fact that the state high
way department is favoring the road
right across North Florida and the
foute down the East Coast, already
famous for its good roads, and doing
nothing for Central and Southern
Florida Except on the East COAST,
that it expects TO try to build up the
rim of the state at the expense of the
greatest and most productive part
We also expect there are going to
be good many people from Marion
at that Jacksonville meeting, and. if
they think they are not getting a
square deal they may go to Tallahas-
see and put a monkey wrench in the
machinery.

DOUBLE MATING NEEDED FOR
EXHIBITION BARRED ROCKS

The Barred Plymouth Rock. the
most popular breed of poultry on the
farms. and therefore the most nu-
merous OF the many now raised in the
countrys has popularity from which
arises special breeding problems. This
is the plumage marking of dark and
light bars that has been known for
so long and which makes II almost es-
sential to make two separate matings
and the females.
The alternating dark and light bars
give "A blush cast or shade to the
general color. which should he eten
throughout the surface. II is common
for solid black feathers, or feathers
which are partly black, to occur in
practically all strains of this variety.
but this not sign of impure breed
ing. Black spots are also common oc-
currenccs on the shanks, particularly
in females but this does not indicate
impurity. There is n decided tendency
for the males of this variety TO come
lighter in color than the females, and
for this reason breeders are usually
obliged to resort TO two separate mat
ings, one for the production of males
of standard color and the other for
the production of females of standard
color This system of double mating
of course, complicates the problem OF
producing high.cass Barred Plymouth
Rocks.
In mating for males of exhibition
color male of about standard color is
used with medium dark females, Oh
