CAPITAL REMOVAL CLUB
DOING GOOD WORK

The campaign to have the capital
of Florida mover to the center of the
State is progressing most favorably.
The Capital Removal Club is leaving
no stone unturned in its efforts to have
the, capital brought to Ocala as the
most central city of Florida. A meet
ing of the Executive Committee of the
club was held yesterday afternoon in
the Bard of Trade Room, and report
was heard from the committee of three.
consisting of Mayor r. L Anderson,
Jr, Mr.. d. E. McIver and Mr.. j. C.
Howell, who went to Tampa in the in
terest of Ocala. The results obtained
in Tampa by the committee have al
ready been published. The Tampa
newspapers and the Tampa Board of
Trade have taken position of neutral
ity. 1t being considered best by the
southern part of the State to make
sure of the removal of the capital be-
fore the fight is made for any parti-
cular location. Mr.. Frank Harris, edi-
tor of the Ocala Banner. who went to
Tampa also in the interest of Ocala's
desires to have the capital. has return
ed and reports that he found much
sentiment in Tampa in gavor of Ocala
as the best site for the capital
The Ocala Rotary Club has dispatch
ed the following telegram to the Rotary
Clubs of the State : "Ocala Rotary
Club goes on record today to back up
removal of Cavital to center of State.
and bases Ocala's claim primarily on
the fact that the geographical center o
the state is located in Marion county.
Ocala is situated on the main line Of
two trunk line railroads. Marion coun-
ty more adequately represents every
phase of Florida's Agricultural and
Industrial life. We ask your support,
considering the matter from the board

Modern Lessons In
GEOGRAPHY
ALASKA


"Fifty-four years ago, on March
80, 1867, was signed the treaty
whereby the United States purchased
Alaska from Russia for $1,000, 600.
In the intervening half century, we
have taken from the territory more
than seventy times the seven millions
of purchase money" says a bulletin
from the Wasginton, D. c. head
quarters of the National Geographic
Society.
'Most Americans are in the hab-
it of thinking of Alaska as of insig-
nificant area, yet it is as large as
Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Missouri put together,
with sizable bits from Kansas, Ne
braska, and the two Dakotas added
on.
"To most people, also, Alaska is
visualized as a land of snow and ice,
Of glaciers and scant vegetation. In
point of fact the Alaskan climate is
fairly diversified, and along the
coast there are slight extremes of
cold and heat. In the interior there
is less rainfall, and the long Arctic
day produces a very dry and warm
climate.
AS Well Located as Norway and
Sweden
Everywhere, except in the ex-
%uriant, its growth is rapid and fruits,
vegetables and grazing grasses flour
ish. Located no less advantageously
than the Scandinavian Peninsula and
with an area almost twice as great
as that of Norway and Sweden COM
bined, Alaska, nevertheless, has a
white population of little more than
$4,000 as against the eight millions
of Scandinavians.
"The three great sources of Alas
kan wealth are minerals, fisheries
and furs. Up to the end of 1915 the
mines of Alaska had produced more
than $500, 100000 In 1916 the
fisheries produced nearly $20,000,-
900, and the peltries more than half
a million. There are great deposits of
coal as yet untouched and of low
grade ores more precious which await
only the development of the terri
own water power to make
them available at tremendous profit.
Valuable in Airplane Making
Forests, too, are extensive and

RURAL-CARRIER EXAMINATION

The United States civil service
commission has announced an ex-
animation for the county of Roose-
welt, Montana, at Froid, Poplar and
Wolf Point, on May %, 1921, to fill
the position of rural carrier at Pop
lar, Montana, and vacancies that
may later occur on rural routes from
other postoffices in the above men
toned county. The salary of a rural
carrier on a standard daily route of
"a miles is $500 per annum, with
an additional $50 per mile per an
mum of each mile or major faction
thereof in excess of "a miles. The
examination will be open only to
citizens who are actually domiciled
in the territory of a post office in
the county and who meet the other
requirements set forth in Form No.
1877. Both men and women, if quail
flied, may enter this examination,
but appointing officers have the legal
right to specify the sex desired in re-
questing certification of eligibles.
Women will not be considered for
rural carrier appointement unless
they are the widows of U. S. soldiers,
sailors, or marines, or the wives of
U. S. soldiers, sailors, or marines
who are physically disqualified for
examination because of injuries re-
ceived in the line of military duty.
Form 1877 and application blanks
may be obtained from the offices
mentioned above or from the United
States civil service commission at
Washington, d. c.
Applications should be forwarded
to the commission at Washington, d.
c., at the earliest practicable date.

FAMOUS COW is DEAD

Salem, Are, April 26.--"Poppy
Dorothea," world champion 8 year
old Jersey dairy COW, died Sunday
night at the farm of Frank Lynn, her
owner, near Perrydale, Polk county,
Ore. Dorothea had a record of 944
pounds of butter fat and 1900
pounds of milk in a years time. She
leaves two daughters and a bull, her
full brother, from which Lynn be-
lieves he can develop a COW that
will surpass the noted champions
record.
Seventeen thousand pounds of
milk at the current price, 12K cents
per quart, is worth over $1,000, or
as much as the average quarter sec
ton produces.-Ed.)

ject as a means of demonstrating
good will to Russia for her unswerv-
ing friendship during the Civil war
found scanty argument in supporting
the payment of what then appeared
so huge a sum. None of them could
forsee that in a single year-and
that almost within a generation of
the time of purchase-Alaska would
yield nearly one thousand per cent
upon the purchase price then paid
for in 1916 the value of exports of
minerals and merchandise from the
territory amounted to S68,61S,656.
ut is to Stewards foresight and
persistence that the United States
owes this opulent outpost. The final
diplomatic action which consumated
the bargain was as precipitous, al
most, as that which gave to us later
the title to the Panama Canal Zone
for the treaty was drafted, signed
and submitted to the Senate within
but little more than twelve hours,
and the preliminary negotiations, in
Guiding the time occupied by the then
Russian minister from Washington to
st. Petersburg and return, was not as
many months. By its terms we took
over an area equal to nearly one
fifth of the whole of the continental
United States of today; an area
which lay fallow for a full genera
ton after it came into our hands and
whose progress in the last twenty
years has been from rugged print
tivness to busting modernism in
every locality where eve slight en-
ergy has been expended. What the
fifty years of American rule in
Alaska may produce is limited only
by the Imagination which the pro-
gress of the last half century may
call up"

REVIVAL OF HOME BAKING
DUE TO NEW COOK BOOK

Home made coffee cake for break
fast, cinnamon buns for lunch, angel
cake for dinner and. doughnuts as a
bed time bite-there's no end to the
goodies you may meet at mealtlme,
or anytime in between, since the
home baking revival struck this city.
Is it due to the fact that our fair
home>makers fear masculine interest
in the home is waning and are try
ing out the old formula-''the way
to a mans heart" ETC.?
Not a bit of it! A new cook book
which has just been published for
free distribution is sole sponsor for
the awakened interest in home bak-
ing! This remarkable book is so full
of unusual brand-new recipes-as
we'll as the good old-fashioned stand
bys-that everyone in town is trying
them out just to make sure they're
all as good as they look. For ex-
ample, there's an airy angel Cake"
made with three eggs instead of eight
"a perfect dream of economy. There
are Parker House rolls that don't
have to be set overnight but can be
made in a little over an hour, and
doughnuts and pie crust recipes that
fairly melt in our mouth. Nor does
it stop there. The index goes from
mullins and biscuits to griddle cakes
and waffles, from jelly roll to straw
berry short-cake and plum pudding
to say nothing of plain old-fashion-
ed cookies and loaf and layer cakes
that are beyond description.
Every recipe in the book has ac-
tually been made and tasted by a
committee at DR.. Price Education
al Department Headquarters, which
is under the direction of a well
known home science expert. Sur
rounded by a corps of experienced
workers, the director is constantly
engaged in creating new recipes or
making the good old-fashioned one
or more economical. The re-
are made and tested in an ac-
tual kitchen modelled after the ideal
home kitchen - everything being
done just as it is in the average
home. After three years of constant
work of this kind the recipes in the
New DR.. Price Cook Book" were
evolved and published.
Following the recipes in this book
IS SO easy, that from the first day it
appeared a great revival Of home
began. Both experienced and
inexperienced cooks began baking,
rs they never baked before, just to
show what good cooks they were.
For those who have not yet been
able to procure a copy of the New
1r. Price Cook Book we add that it

timber and wood pulp. The heaviest
growth lies along the coast, where
two national reservations contain q
combined area of about 81, ,0O0
acres with an existing stand of mer-
charitable timber exceeding eight bill
lion feet, board measure. These for

ity of the great northern belt of conf
fers which spans our continent and
Alaskon spruce has been found val
liable for the construction of the
wooden frames of airplanes, for
which it commanded during the war
the remarkable price of nearly $3.50
per thousand feet.
"In recent years Alaska has at
tracted attention as a producer of
meat for expectation to the United
States. This meat is derived from
reindeer herds which Craze on the
MOSES and grasses of the far north
ern part of the territory which at IN
time were considered worthless and
unproductive. The Alaskan rein
deer herds now contain more than
1000 of the animals, all derived
from the 1880 reindeer imported into
Alaska by the Federal government
% years ago. In this period, besides
many thousand of the animals have
been slaughtered for food. 1t is es-
timated that the portions of Alaska
unsuited for other industries will
maintain four to five million head of
reindeer. In the Scandinavian coun-
tries their meat is highly priced. The
reindeer meat from Alaska is begin
ming to appear regularly now in
many of the meat shops of the Unit
ed States.
Transportation Facilities Greatest
Need
"The development of the lumber
industry, like that of all other enter
in Alaska, is largely dependent
upon the extension of communica-
tions, especially by rail; and the
Federal government now has under
construction a railroad, which is de-
to open up the country for
both travel and industry. There are
457 miles of this road in operation.
Only 83 miles remain to be con-
structed to give this road it's total
,rackage of $40 miles.
"Alaska was not taken into the
Federal domain without much criti-
ism. None of it, however, reached
he height of invective with which
Eastern statesmen had condemned
he Oregon territory at an earlier
though the later prophets of
II have been as deeply COMPOUNDED
IS the others. The price paid seemed
out of proportion to the
benefits to be derived; and even those

him; when he is big, the little girls
kiss him. If he is poor. he is bad
manager; if he is rich, he is dishonest.
II he needs credit, he can't get it; if
he is prosperous, everyone wants to
do him favor.
"n he is in politics, it is for graft:
