younger birds each year.
The disease is not caused by filth.
damp houses, poor feeding, or gen
eral low vitality as is sometimes sup
posed, but is caused by germ with
a period of incubatioB similar to
measles in childrep Or it is caused
by the feeding OF nqstermelons as is
frequently reported. However, they
act as splendid scattering agent for
the disease, due to the sweet, sticky
juice adhering to the combs and gills
of the fowls, causing them to scratch
their faces, which make small breaks
allowing the entrance of germs.
The main sources of infection are
the blood of the infested chick, the
discharge from the ulcers, and from
the mucus discharge from the nos
trils and mouth. Frequent spreading
agents are mites and mosquitoes, and
buzzards, who feed upon birds dead
from sorehead, and scatter the dis
ease thru their droppings.
Only one remedy is approved, ana
that is, the daily use of flowers Of
sulphur in the mash, according to Dr
n. w. Sanborn, extension poultryman
of the College of Agriculture. Wnen
sorehead appears, make your masn

SIX CANDIDATES FOR SPEAKER
OF HOUSE

Now that the primary election is
over and representatives to the Flori-
da legislature have been nominated
interest is centered on who will be
speaker of the house in 1923. Several
candidates for speaker have already
made announcement of their candida
cy and the claims of others are being
urged by their friends.
L. ID. Edge of Groveland, Lake
county, is a candidate. Mr. Edge was
speaker pro tenn during the 1921 ses-
sion and made a fine record as a pre-
siding officer at the times he was
called to the chair.
Eugene S. Matthews of Starke.
Bradford county, has announced that
he will be in the race. Mr. Matthews
was member of the legislatures of
1905, 1907 and again in 1911 He
was speaker of the house in 1907 and
made splendid record as a presid-
ing officer.
Forest Lake of Sanford, Seminole
county, has also announced his candi-
dacy. Mr.. Lake is an experienced
legislator, having represented his
county in the sessions of 1911, 1913
and 1915.
Friends of Amos Lewis, of Marian
ma, Jackson county, say he will be
an active candidate for speaker. Mr..
Lewis represented his county in the
legislatures of 1915, 1917 and 1919
A. w. McLaren of Wellborn, Suwa-
nee county, is being urged by his
friends to enter the contest, but he
has not yet made formal announce
ment of his candidacy.
The Taylor County Herald has nom
mated W. t. Hendry, who will rep
resent Taylor in the 1922 session, for
speaker and strongly, urges his fitness
for that important position.
1t is probable that others will en-
ter the contest and that the caucus of
1928 will be one of the livest held in
many years.

KEEP UP SPRAYING FOR PECAN
ScAB AND MiLDEW DURING
JUNE AND JULY

Mildew and scab are summer dis
eases of the pecan which can be con-
troled by spraying with standard bor-
deaux mixture at frequent intervals
during June, July, and August. =
Mildew is recognized by a -four
like, whitish coating which covers
whole leaves and nuts. is greatest
damage is to the young nuts. causing
an excessive dropping of nuts under
moist, humid conditions.
The fungus that causes scab is no.
ticed by dark green, smoky, super
fetal growth which is usually con-
firmed to rounded spots on the leaves.
hwigs and nuts. ScaD is a very per-
sistent disease and the best way to
control the disease is by planting i'm
mune varieties
Bordeaux mixture, A-4-5- eornula
is the spray recommended for these
diseases by the Florida Experiment
Staten. During periods of wet
weather applications of this mixture
should be made every two weeks. In
seasons of moderate rainfall the time
between sprayings may be lengthen-
ed considerably. If a systematic
spraying schedule has been kept up
thruout the months of June and July
one spraying in August usually will
be sufficient to control these diseases.

|ELKs ENJOY DELIGHTFUL RIVER
TRIP

Even if Thursday, June p, was over
fourteen hours long, it came to a close
only too quickly for the members OF
Ocala lodge No. 2S6, B. p. o. E., sew
eral visiting brothers in the city and
la number of friends of the boys.
The jolly crowd, after witnessing
the one-sided game of baseball in the
afternoon, in which Ocala put it all
over the Jacksonville aggregation,
cars were assembled in front of the
Elks club, and conveyed the party to
the springs, where after enjoying the
they boarded the palatial Silver
Springs" one of Ed Carmichae's
sturdy boats of the Daylight Line.
The committee on arrangements had
tried not to overlook anything that
would add to the enjoyment of the
crowd, and carried along a splendid
orchestra of stringed instruments, and
all the way down to Connor the boys
were treated to delightful music
The trip down to Connor was un-
eventful, and as it was still broad
daylight on the trip many who had
never taken this trip before were
busy watching the fish, turtles and al
ligators, in plain view in the clear
waters, and utteriDg exclamations of
delight.
Upon arriving at Connor, messen-
ger was dispatched to the home of
Mr.. Pat Randall, with a cordial invi-
tatiOn for that genial host to come
over and help the boys have a good
time, but unfortunately that gentle
man was not feeling well, and only
sent his regrets, with an invitation
to disembark and help yourselves to
the limit
About $3.50 someone called out that
"eats" were ready, and when it is men,
toned that Shorty" Davidson was at
the head of this part of the program
everyone knows what happened next
There was chicken pillau, pickles, oil
ives, pimento and ham sandwiches,
etc., with all the cold drinks to go
with it. All during the time the boys
were enjoying this repast the orches-
ira rendered it's choice selections, in
terspersed with genuine old-fashioned
songs. A number of witty jokes were
told by different ones in the crowd,
and merriment held sway for fully an
hour, when the gong sounded and the
return trip was made.
The jolly crowd reached their homes
in the city about eleven o'clock, de-
termined that if not more often these
trips shall be an annual event, and
that next time the wives, daughters
and sweethearts will be invited to en-
joy the trip with them.

ocALA DEFEATS JACKSONVILLE
ALL STARS

The hard hitting of the Ocala Wild
cats enabled them to defeat easily ar
"all star" team from Jacksonville, us
ling as their battery the famous
Saints" Hernandez and Colee, and
lreceiving no less than three doubles
from Hernandez delivery in the nine
innings.
The all star team consisted of play.
ers from Wood & Mcdaniel, Levy, K
of c., and Furchgott's city league, and
three players from st. Augustine.
While the visitors had a strong
team on the field they lacked little
team work, and while errors were nu-
merous the Ocala team likewise made
several bad errors that resulted in
both of the visitors runs.
Ocala started scoring in the first in
ming by pushing two runners across,
and came back stronger in the Sec
ond, bringing their total score up to
six, which was too big handicap for
the visitors
Taylor, with three hits out of three,
was the batting star of the game, fol-
lowed closely by Rymer, who got two
out of two, besides starring in the
field with several pretty and sensa-
tional catches. Leon got two out of
three trips and Liddell got two in four
trips.
One of the prettiest plays of the day
was when Taylor stopped difficult
grounder at short and threw to Leon
at second, catching the runner by sew
eral feet for the third out and dou-
BILE play by Leon to Brooks, Brooks
throwing to Taylor who was covering
second, and just missed a triple.
