TQe SECOND Letter.
The White House. Washington,
July IL 1911.
My Dear General Whipple:
II write this that you may show it to
Mr.. Hay and Mr.. Sweet OF the military
committee. You have come to me at
your own instance with the statement
that you have learned that Mr. Sweet is
indignant because he thinks he has been
misquoted in regard to an omission of
two or three papers of the War Depart
ment report called for by H. r. 2CS
The part of the record omitted refers to
a charge against Maj. Beecher B. Ray OF
Illicit relations with a certain married
woman. in respect to which 1 was con-
suited by you at the time the charge was
made, and also at the time the resolution
was passed. I saw Mr.. Sweet in New
Haven and told him that deprecated its
being brought out, as thought II would
tend to blast the reputation Of q married
woman. who, as / understood was living
happily with her husband. and was not
probably what the committee was search
ing for.
asked him to see Mr.. Covington, who
had prompted the resolution, and find IL
that part OF the record might be omitted.
! understood from the Secretary OF War.
and also from Gen. Wood. that Mr.. Sweet
had consented to an omission Of that
part Of the record. unless, upon its be-
ing brought to the attention OF the COM
mittee. a sfuli record was desired. and
that in accordance with that understand

A gumbo soil is one that is
made up Of very fine soil part
Giles. It does not contain much
organic matter and consequently
the soil particles run together
and prevent the entrance of air.
Plants cannot live unless they
have a goodly amount of oxygen.
With an absence of air it is also
impossible for the plant food to
be made available. 1t is because
of this factor that crops upon
gumbo burn cut so easily !, d
early in the season. The soil is
so firm that the moisture quickly
evaporates, leaving nothing to
I've used by the plants. There
are two methods by which soils
of this kind can be materially
improved. One is by the addi-
ton of farmyard manure. This
manure should be we'll ret
ted an distributed in the fall.
The land should be fall plowed
and the manure thoroughly in
termixed. This will open up the
soil in the fall and give the ele-
ments the opportunity to make
plant food available, also the ma
nure will begin to decay, both
of which will be materially valu-
able to the growing crops the
following season. Then again it
is possible to plow the land early
in the spring and the danger of
pudding is eliminated. The Sec
ond remedy for heavy gumbo is
to pillow under a green manure
crop. Fall rye is mighty good
for this. 1t can be planted in
t IL fall and plowed under in the
spring. This increases in the
humas contained in the soil and
will materially assist in raising
the productive power Of gumbo
soils. South Dakota Better

Panama City's location cannot be
excelled from a business standpoint by
any city in the south. Situated on the
north side of st. Andrews Bay, on
the channel leading to the pass, and
at the entrance Of East Bay, 1t occu-
pies the pivotal point for the CONNER
ciaI development Of this section, and
the shores of the bay at this place will
be where the enormous commerce Of
the Chattahoochee and Flint river dis
tricts, coming through the East Bay
canal, will be transferred to ocean
going vessels.
The city's waterfront Will also be ex-
tensively used for the transshipment
Of Alabama iron and coal, destined to
South Florida, Central and South
American points, the route through
Panama City being many miles the
shortest and most direct, from the
Alabama ore and coal fields to these
countries, thus furnishing a lower
freight rate than can be secured by
any other route.
Panama City is but a few years old,
though the hustle and hustle which is
apparent as soon as the visitor alights

Prominent citizens Of Panama City
when asked what were some of the
lines Of business which needed de-
velopment and which would give the
best returns, had the following to
say:
"A wholesale grocery and supply
house There are now within the lin
its Of what is known as the Bay Coun-
try, some ten thousand people; with
such important towns as Panama City,
Millville, st. Andrews, Lynn Haven
and Southport, and many smaller
places. such as Parker, Galloway,
Farmdale, Allanton, Wetappo, Gro
manton, West Bay and Bay Head. In
addition to these, are are many tur-
pentine locations, each of which re-
quire a large amount of supplies in
the way of provisions, etc. This is the
logical distributing point for all the
places noted above, and a wholesale
grocery establishment here would be
a most profitable institution.

have gone from other states to make
their homes in Panama City, believing
it will eventually become the one gulf
seaport city. All of them are enthu-
siastic about the future Of Panama
City and are working on a cooperative
plan to bring about the best results.
It is a good city in which to live.
The health of the people is the best
and nowhere in the world is there a
more contented people. In the summer
Alabama is sending trainloads there for
short visits, many of whom decide to
locate there permanently, while in the
winter the tourists from the north find
it pleasant and profitable to spend
several months in the various hotels
there.
The Board of Trade and the various
real estate companies are offering in
ducements to manufacturing concerns,
small and large, to locate at Panama.
They realize that something substan-
tial in the way of weekly payrolls will
materially help the prosperity of the
people and the man or set of men who
have small or large amounts which
they would like to invest in profitable
enterprises might find it to their ad-
