Mr.. Frank ]. Board. long time
prominent citizen of Hillsboro has con-
cluded to try his luck in the prairie
southwest, moving to Saltwater, Okla
homa, with his family. His property
interests at Hillsboro have been dis
posed of to James Holak. Mr.. Board s
going will be regretted by large circle
of acquaintance throughout the coun-
ty. He had many times represented
his town and village on the board of
supervisors and been a candidate for
positions on the republican county
ticket. All friends will wish him well
in the congenial climate of the baby
state of the Union.

TwO IMPORTANT FEATURES NOTED
Car Load Shipment Of Tobacco to Cana
dian Points-Yet on the Poles

| 1t IS peculiar and unusual situation
that there is quite per cent of the
Vernon county tobacco grown last sea-
son still suspended on the shed poles.
This was made known to the CENSOR
| by all the packers of this city on recent
interviews. Growers failed to take the
weed down during the several casing
/ periods of past weeks. This fact coupled
with bad roads is making a shortage of
goods for handling, and unless deliveries
are soon made there will of necessity
be temporary cessation of work at the
numel GUS houses. Every day there
are a large number of loads brought in
from the country, but much of this de-
livery is shipped by foreign buyers to
outside packing points.
Almost daily shipments are made of
seasoned cased tobacco from this city
to all points of the compass to manu-
facturers and wholesale dealers. An
unusual shipment was that of one car
load from the Bekkedal warehouse to
Canadian cities. We believe it is the
first shipment out of the United States
direct from Viroqua packer.
On tobacco matters elsewhere in the
state and country the Edgerton Re
porter comments: 1.-THE buying of last
seasons tobacco crop is quietly being
prosecuted in nearly all sections of the
state again with q prospect that the
growing districts win be pretty thor
oughly cleaned up. Prices, however,
rule low, mostly under the cent mark.
while good deal is being handled on an
export basis or for account of stem
ming. The Indications of an early spring
have seemingly acted as sort of inn
- la
ings before farm work is rushing
ut is doubtful if any tobacco crop
purchased largely in the field has been
subject to more general dockage at
delivery time than the present one.
There have been wears when the de-
auctions have been larger perhaps, but
we can recall none when buyers were
more general in demand for some
thing off the original contract price.
We refer particularly to that portion of
the crop bought while green in the
fields, the later purchases and the
cheaper grades were of course exempt
from this trouble. 1t is estimated that
an average dockage of about 10 per
cent has been made on the early buy
ing, which of itself is sufficient to csh-
denim the practice of selling the eroD
before II is ready fJSSN s8s = say
Several things that happened to last
seasons tobacco crop ought 10 teach
the growers to use greater care in the
character of the seed used hereafter
For some years past growers have been
getting farther and farther away from
the genuine Spanish type Of leaf and
into a larger and coarser style of to-
btcco because the demand for large
machine binder made sale of this
class of tobacco well up towards the
price % the smaller varieties. Buyers,
however, rave become more discrimi-
mating Of iate in making their selec-
tons and the reasons therefor will be-
come at once apparent when they are
known. /"

Editor Pensacola Journal.
It seems that the Atlanta spirit is
about to catch Pensacola-the- spirit
that boosts, booms and pushes ones
home city to greatness.
OF late, among the white people
the slogan is: on with Pensacola
This is as it should be and since the
colored people are here, l have been
thinking how they could contribute
to the advancement of this rapidly
growing city. The colored people Ger.
tainly cannot afford to be a menace
to the populace, but on the contrary
should foster every right spirit and
effort put forth by the white people
They should therefore be a factor in
the moral, economical and industrial
development of Pensacola and Escam
bia county.
l have had in mind and am trying
to get before the colored people the
idea of farming in Escambia county.
The farm is the backbone of any
country. To depend upon some other
section to raise and grow all we need
when the same can be grown at home,
seems to me slow way to go for
ward.
With a view of seeing for myself
the different soils of Escambia coun-
ty, / recently took trip through diff
ferent parts of the county; studied
the soil, sub-soil, ETC., and can say
definitely this is a good farming coun.
try. Cotton, corn, oats, wheat, cane,
tobacco, rice, alfalfa and anything
grown on the farms of the South can

be grown in Escambia county, Flor
ida, in large quantities. Anyone who
has smattering of agricultural edu-
cation, if he investigates, will say the
same thing. Many reasons should in
duce the colOred people to turn their
attention to the farm. 1 do not wish
to be tedious or lengthy, but please
let me state a few of these reasons
without going into argument.
The death rate will be diminished.
They will be taken away from a lot
of vice, immortality, which they are not
strong enough to withstand.
1t will keep lots of them off the vag-
rant list.
1t will give them healthy employ
ment.
1t will make conditions better for
the few who might remain.
They will be contributing to the
commonwealth.
1t will reduce criminality 80 per
cent.
There is a world of wealth on the
farm. More money is made in the
South from cotton than any other one
article.
Colored men, think of what you saw
at the Tri-County Fair last fall.
Last February we held a series of
meetings at the Normal and Industrial
School. the purpose of which was to
get before the colored people these
ideas.
Some time in July We propose to
mold another such meeting for the
same purpose, only on a larger scale.
Several white speakers will speak
on this occasion.
