The Pensacola Electric Company has
arranged with the Interstate Fair As
sOciatiOn for the installation of
gigantic electric display every night
at the fair which will be held in this
city November to II, inclusive. 1t
is said that the display which the cleo
trio company proposes to exhibit will
be one OF the biggest and most spec
tacular that has ever been witnessed
in this part of the south. While of
course the display will not be carried
out on the same grand proportions
that was first seen at Buffalo. later al
ST. Louis and finally at Portland,
Oregon, but the effect will be just as
brilliant and the Kaleidoscope display
Of electric lights just as brilliant and
charming.
1t is hoped by the management of
the fair that the determination on the
part of the electric light company to
install this splendid display will be
but the prelude to the establishment
of the great white way which has been
widely advocated for the past few
days. This is that the city cooperate
with the Fair Association and string
festoons of incandescent lights along
Palafox and other business streets OF

were the following, which embrace a
part of the program for re-adjusting

Whereas, experience in Texas.

cotton culture, unless greatly improv-
ed, becomes Improbable in the pres
ence of the boil weevil; and
Whereas, the best means Of avoid
ing the enormous losses occasioned
by this pest consists, first, in diyersi-
flying our agriculture, and second, in
learning how to grow cotton by more
intensive and scientific methods, so
that the cotton plant may nearly ma
ture large part of its bolls before

Whereas, much local experimental
work is needed to ascertain how best
to grow cotton when the boil weevil
is present, and to determine the best

stock, fruits and vegetables for build
ing up diversified agriculture;
therefore, be it
