The Pecan Question
Again.

Apropos the pecan question again,
the Tampa Times, which is somewhat
doubtful as to the ultimate safety of
the pecan-growing industry, says:
There still remain sundry CONNER
cial problems, such as how much
pecans the consuming public would
demand and devour, how much could
be produced at the tempting prices
that the nut now commands, how
soon would there be an overproduc-
ton, what is the price list downward
at which the cultivation would cease
to pay the expense? With the limited
consumption of these days many
barrels Of pecans and other nuts
some of them superior-lie around to
become the abode Of worms. The
most important query is, How much
pecans does the world want and what
will 1t pay? Therefore be wary and
prudent, and put no more labor and
money and hope into pecans than be-
comes a side line. 1t will be easy
enough to enlarge the plantation
from year to year as events may de.
velop, but it would be paiful and dis
appointing to ensmall.
It is doubtful If the world will ever
suffer glut Of the pecan market
There are more pecans produced now
than there ever was and the price is
higher than it ever was
Very few people will ever go into
the pecan-growing industry exclusive
ly because it takes too long to get the
first return on the investment. But
people everywhere are planting shade
and ornamental trees every year
Most of the trees they plant are
worthless for anything except shade
and ornament. Why not plant a few
pecan trees that will serve the purpose
of shade and ornament and at the
same time help pay the grocery bill
and the tax levy?
If the various counties that are now
building hard roads would plant pecar
trees along the sides of the roadway
they would in time not only afford 2
| fine shade for the animals and people
who travel the roads but they would
constitute a means Of revenue sutn
cient to maintain the roads per
petually.

Must Hold Up
The Secretary's Hands.

The Progressive League is starting
out under the new regime with very
Gathering prospects Of more than ordi-
nary success. 1t desires to do many
things for Pensacola and It Will prob
ably succeed. But to. do SO, every.
thing must not be left for the secre-
tary to do, however capable that Sec
rotary may be. Mr.. Rufus Jones, the
new secretary of the League, yester'
day said to The Journal:
Il am going to do the very best ]
can towards forwarding the interests
Of Pensacola, but In this connection
there is one thing which I hope the
people will not lose sight of and thai
f. In one respect at least a CONNER
cial secretary is like baseball pitcher
he can't win without the proper sup
port" .... D..
In regard to this sentiment the sec
rotary of the Progressive League is
eminently right. 1t Is up to the people
of the Deep Water City to do all that
lies in their power to make success
out Of every one of the big enterprises
which the league expects to take up
It does not matter whether you are
member Of the league or not, there
are hundred ways in which even ths
bumblest citizen can assist in making
these undertakings of the organization
a success.
The fact is obvious that the League
was fortunate in securing the service;
OF Mr. Jones. 1t is evident that tht
League believes in him or he would
not have been employed, but he car
no more carry out the designs unaidet
than one man can dig the Panama
canal.
Much work and that Of the utmost
Importance to the city lies before the
organization. Pensacola needs a grea
many things and this organization viii
try to help procure at least some o.
them. Factories have to be induced
to move mere. Railroads ought to b
built. many reforms should be insti
tuted. but the secretary cannot do al
this alone. Now let everybody help.

Last Editorial
Of a County Edition.

The venerable c. V. S. Wilson
editor Of the Sarasota Times, has
passed over the great divide at the
advanced age of seventy-three years
In the current issue of his paper was
his last editorial. 1t was a valedictory
and in this he said that he would
never attempt to work again, but
would pass over the cares of the Office
to his wife, who had been his assist
ant for the past twelve years. In this
editorial he said:
Now, with life's duties finished and
only awaiting the call to pass lover
the river" l lay down my pen and
pencil, put aside my stick and rule
vacate the editorial chair and walk
out of the sanctum, with honor un-
sullied, aged seventy-three. Farewell
The pathetic part is yet to come.
In the same issue Of the paper con.
tanning the dying swan song Of Judge
Wilson, was the account Of his death
and funeral
After laying down the stick and
rule, full of years and honored of all
men and loved by all his intimates,
he died in a few days.
The work Of the editor Of the coun.
try weekly is much more important
than the general public knows Of or
is willing to concede. Country editors
have been dubbed knights of the
Washington Hand Press" and they
are to an extent moderated, but very
largely do they mould public opinion
and while the public depends on the
large city daily for the doings Of the
seething. pusating world at large, the
little things at home are chronicIed
by no one except the editor of the
county weekly. The country editor
when he takes the right side and the
better side Of great moral questions,
as he generally does, comes very
closely in touch with the people. He
is in measure in the same class with
the pastor and the family physician.
Such man was c. v. s. Wilson.
