Ocala, Fla, May 81, 1922.
Editor Of the Banner:
Ny attention has been called to the
fact that my opponent is circulating
the report that l am being run for
the purpose of passing a re-forrestra-
tion bill.
| wish to say that this is merely a
campaign lie. l am opposed to any
bill that would tend to exempt lands
from taxation and have so repeatedly
expressed myself.
l have again and again said that
what / thought the people of Florida
most needed was fewer laws than We
have, not more laws. | know of no
new law we need except such laws
as tend to reduce appropriations, cut
off Office holders and repeal some of
the thousands OF pages of laws that
we now have.

Most girls who have bad figures
are simply lazy" says Miss Smith,
Girls with pudgy figures or scrawny
figures can have beautiful bodies if
they can stand a little sacrifice and
hard work. Flattered with the natural
charm OF early youth too many lapse
into lazy habits at the time when the
girl physically fit is coming into her

T. S. SOLDIERS RETURNING
Few, If Any, Will Be Left With Allied
 Armies in Germany.

Washington, Dec. 31.-The question of leaving small representation of American soldiers indefinitely with the allied armies of occupation in Ger many has not yet been decided it was said today at the White House. If any are left, it was added, the number would be small. American troops from the army on the Rhine are at present returning to the United States at the rate of about 500 for each trans port which sails.
 The United States has not as yet re- ceived any money from Germany in payment of the costs of the occupation, Credits in favor of the United States, however, have been set aside by the German government covering the eX- penditures and the amount stands as an obligation which the United States Alay expect to collect some time in th' future.

Nashville, Dec. 31.-Mrs. Mack Thompson, middle-aged woman, died at the family home in Nashville early this morning, her death resulting from excitement produced when the home of a neighbor caught fire and burned at 1 o'clock this morning.
 When the fire alarm was given Mrs Thompson went to the door of her home home and discovered that the fire was near, and that the women who lived in the burning house were screaming. Mrs. Thompson turned back into the room, telling other mem- bers of thee family that half of her was dead" She fell across bed and a physician was hurriedly summoned but nothing could be done to save her life, her death resulting at o'clock this morning Mir. Thompson was a. way from home at the time, and did not arrive until just before his wife's death. The shock has been so great to him that the attentions of a physi- elan have been required for him most of today. The Thompsons are we'll known here.

COTTON MARKETING
 PLAN GOES OVER
Total of 239,0O0 Bales Is Signed Up By Cooperative AssOciation-To
 Continue Campaign.

Little Rock, Dec. 31.-The Arkansas Farm Bureau Cotton Growers Coop erative Association became a reality yesterday.
 After carefully checking up all re- ports from field workers last night, F. R. Shanks, campaign director an nounced that the total number of bales signed up was 239,O0O This, MT. Shanks said, was a conservative figure and he estimated that the total was really considerably more than that figure.
 The amount signed up is approxi- mately one-fourth of the amount of FcottCn produced in Ark. in 1920. The Arkansas Farm Bureau Cotton Grow CTS Cooperative Association thus be- comes one of the largest-if not the largest-business concern in the state.
 All contracts signed were contingent upon the signing up of a total of 200,- 900 bales by January :. The contracts iioW OONOAlC SicCllF0 dIlu DluuluS. All members obligate themselves to mar ket all their cotton through the associ- ation for period of five years.
 It was announced that the campaign will be continued through January and some of the more optimistic workers at headquarters predict that 100000 bales will have been signed up by that time. All workers at headquarters ex- pressed confidence that that amount would be reached at least by the time the marketing of the 1922 crop begins. Between 10 and 15 workers will be kept in the field.
 Mr. Shanks, who has been continu- ously engaged in the campaign since his arrival here October 26, left last night to spend week with his family at Beeville, Tex. He will return to di- rect the campaign work during Janu- ary.
 Robin Hood, Texas editor, who has the campaign, left yesterday afternoon been acting as publicity director for for Chicago. He has received an at tractive offer to become associated with the Publicity Department of the American Farm Bureau Federation and probably will accept.
