Ocala Rotarians
Stage Five 100 Pct.
Meets i'm January

Ocala, March 2-The Ocala Rotary
Club was the third highest in atten-
dance among the sos clubs of the Di-
vision D of International Rotary du-
ring the month of January officials
here announce. The club is just a
little proud of the fact that it not
only led the attendance in Florida and
in the Eighth District, comprising the
states of Florida, Georgia and Alaba-
ma, but stood third among the clubs
of the United States and foreign
countries having a membership of less
than fifty. During January, the Oca-
la club staged five consecutive one
hundred percent meetings. The club
has membership of thirty-fve. Sir
clubs in International Rotary with
memberships of less han fifty had an
attendance record of five straight one
hundred percent meetings. Two of
these clubs, Clinton, ILL.,, and Aath-
ems, Pa, have memberships larger
than the Ocala Club, and Opelika,
iAla., Mission, Texas and Kenora,
Ont, have memberships smaller than
Ocala.
In order to make the record, several
members of the Ocala club had to
make long drives by automobil to
make the attendance at other Clubs in
the State, and other members made
the attendance at Rotary clubs in
New York city, Albany, N. Y, Phil

Indian Girl Will
Be a Delegate to a
China Conference


Lawrence, Kans., March Ruth
Muskrat, a Cherokee Indian girl from
Oklahoma who is student at the
University of Kansas here, will visit
China this spring as a delegate to
the World Student Christian Fedora
ton Conference at Picking, April A.
The hope of the conference, Miss
Muskrat explained recently, is to get
students of various parts of the world
in vital touch with each other and,
among other things, solve the prob
lens confronting Chinese students
who have become imbued with Occi-
dental IDEAS.
Miss Muskrat, who is II, mas done
Y. W. C. A. work in New Mexico and
worked among her people in religious
and educational work.
"The primary need of my people"
Miss Muskrat declared, "is trained
native leadership-Indians, them
selves, who understand the peculiar
tiles of the tribe and can work with
them.
Indian women are more capable in
most respects than the men. They
know better how to barter-they are
shrewder. This is an outgrowth of
the slime when womenI raited the
crops. The men go in more for social
activities. If have party, l can
always count on the men attending.
But if l want to put on financial
drive, appeal to the women"
Fifty seven nations will be repre-
scented at the student conference in
Picking, and will represent more
than 100000 students throughout the
world, she said. After the confer
ence, delegates will visit the principal
universities of Japan and China.
Miss Muskrat, who says her father
is Cherokee and her mother Irish, will
be the second Indian ever elected
delegate to an international student
conference. She goes as a guest of
the national board of the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association.

BURT TELLS WHAT
POTATO INDUSTRY
MEANS To SECTION

Quoting figures to illustrate the
immensely of the potato industry in
this section and illustrating what it
would mean if the potato grower
were to cease his activities, R. NJ.
Burt, of Hastings, made most in
teresting address on the spud situa-
ton at the weekly luncheon of the
Kiwanis club yesterday. Emmons
Graham was in charge of the pro-
gram and introduced Mr.. Burt after
business of the club had been trans
acted, and it was decided to attend
the mass meeting at the school au-
ditorium in a body.
After speaking generally of the
growing business Mr.. Burt
said:
"Our potato industry of Florida
has been founded on the brain and
Drawn of our people who were not
discouraged by difficulties. Capital
did not produce this industry, but it
produced capital and its growth has
been steady and sure. 1t was pri-
marily the outcropping from the ca
lamity of the big freeze years ago,
and the condemned bottom lands
were brought into cultivation. Be-
ing developed without capital it was
necessarily slow process, but made
it's own capital and pyramided it, and
in 1917 teh climax was reached with
a crop bringing in $5'000,000. Today
the immensely of the industry can
hardly be realized by the outsider.
Where formerly it was a Hastings
deal it Immediately became a state
wide industry, and therefore calls for
an organization to protect its nu-
merous channels of trading.
"'The marketing end of the deal is
subject in itself, and the grower
plainly sees the necessity of a sys-
tematic marketing agency. Great
credit is due the commission houses
which have upheld the farmers in
hard times, being the means of bring
ing in outside capital for temporary
relief to the growers, and advancing
money on crops when the banks did
not feel justified in doing so.
81 term the great industry the
lodestone for money in thi scommu- |
nifty. To begin with, the crop re-
quires $4,000 tons of fertilizer val
ued at 100000, and it takes $22,500
to pay the freight bill from Jack |
sonville, and it takes $4,000 to haul
this fertilizer to the farms. The
seed from New York and Maine to
plant the crop with constitutes 75,-
900 sacks, or nine trainloads with a
freight bill of about 100000, and
those seed cost the farmer $362,000'
and additionally it cost him $4,000
to get the seed cut for planting.
Again we have the package, or bar
,el bill, for 100000 barrels valued at
10000. The labor bill for making
he crop is figured at $40 per acre, or
1900 900, payable at about $4,000
'er month.
@Now let us look into the direct
pplication of this money in so far
s il affects the community. The
eed money goes north, tn ecutting
loney stays with our laborers, or,
err capita, dollar each for every
ian, woman and child in Hastings

NUMEROUS NAMES MENTIONED
IN RACE FOR GOVERNOR

Columbia, April 21.-The an
nouncement that Former Congress-
man A. Frank Lever is to be head Of
the new joint land bank in Columbia
has revived talk throughout the state
as to who will be the next governor.
Mr.. Lever had been considered by
many as a possible candidate for the
governorship, but his definite an
nouncement of other plans is thought
by many to leave the way open for
announcement by some other good
man. 1t is said that several good
men in the state are in a receptive
mood, and will probably put their
hats in the ring, now that the atmos-
phere has cleared up, so far as Mr..
Levers position is concerned. 1t is ex-
pected that the next few weeks will
bring developments in the political
situation.
To many the recent discussion of
the possibility of Hon. John Gary
Evans, of Spartanburg, as candidate
Tor governor, is taken to mean that
he will be in the race. Mr.. Evans has
been in Columbia several times late
ly and during the recent legislative
session he was seen several times on
the floors of the assembly. This is
taken as pretty good sign that po-
litical bee is buzzing in his bonnet.
Numerous names are mentioned in
connection with the race for govern
or including those Of Mr.. Evans, Hen
ry Tillman of Greenwood; Co, J.
Mon Johnson of Marion; DR.. D. W.
Daniels of Clemson college. Col.
Holmes Springs of Greenville; Dr.. o.
in Sawyer of Georgetown; D. R. Co.
ker of 'Hartsville; DR., George B. Gre
mer of Newberry; Senator Proctor
Bonham of GreenviiIe; l.. Nj Cooper.
Jr., of Waysacki; Christie Benet of
Columbia; and State Superintendent
of Education John E Swearingen of
Columbia. Former Governor Blease
and A. J. Bethea have announced
themselves.
It's said that the anti-Blease fore
es will have candidate in the race,
one who has not yet announced HIM
self. Who this man will be is not
known, but with the time approach
ing for the meetings of the Demo
cratic clubs, which means the setting
up Of the election machinery, there
are expected to be announcements
soon.
