PROFIT IN WHEAT GROWING
Consumption OF Bread Continually on
the. Increase.

Consumption Of Bread Continually on
the Increase.
Wheat growing has been on the de-
cline in the Northern states for some
years, owing to plant, diseases and
insect pests, and also to the fact that
live stock raising has been increased
and that some of the land has been
required for this purpose. The con-
sumption of bread made from wheat
flour is continually on the increase,
however, and the indications point
strongly toward the possibility of
profits from wheat when grown in
combination with other crops or in
rotations. Yields >of twenty-five or
tbirty-fve bushels per acre of spring
wheat have been obtained where a
good rotation has been followed and
where proper conditions for wheat
growing have been maintained.
Wheat does not deplete the soil
fertility more than other grain crops
and the profit from growing the crop
is greater on the average than from
most of the other cereals. Where
good seed is sown and the land is
properly prepared there is no reason
why q crop of,wheat once in four or
five years cannot be very we'll fitted
In to the farming scheme. Farmers
will do well to pay attention to proper
conditions for wheat growing and
will find good profits from the wheat
crop in most years, If the land is IN
condition to yield twenty-five to thir-
ty-hve bushels per acre. Andrew
Boss. University Farm, st. Paul.

Scarlet Fever Epidemic Feared And
Students Dismissed Thursday

Fearing that a scarlet fever cpl
demic would result if the public
schools Of Nymore we're not closed
for the time being, the students
were dismissed last Thursday so that
the buildings could be thoroughly
fumigated and cleaned. One case Of
fever is the only one that has been
reported recently in Nymore but as
the patient was a student in the
schools of the village the extra pre-
cautions are taken.

naval HOLIDAY
IS DENOUNCED
Proposal Ridicnled by Navy
League Of United States.
..-----
ALL in ENGLAND'S FAVOR

That Country Is Now Supreme on the.
Seas and Would Remain So as Long
as the Holiday" Lasted
and Russia Would Never Consent
to Agreement.
Washington, Dec 13-"Absolute
futility of the naval holiday idea,'
says a statement issued by the Navy
League of the United States, lis evil
dent to all students of international
affairs and is slowly dawning on the
public in general. The position of
certain European countries with ref
erence to any move toward limiting
armament will cause all such pro-
nouncements to fall fat"
The league points out that Germany
in particular ridicules the idea of. fol-
lowing such move made by Great
Britain at this, time Britain is now
supreme on the seas and a holiday of
any length would leave her supreme
making strenuous efforts to gain upon
her strength and those gains would
be held back just as long as the holt
day lasted, says the statement.
Russia, for instance, has not a
single dreadnought completed, but she
has eleven in course of construction.
She is anxious to get into the big ship
game. She scouts the idea of stop
ping work on those dreadnoughts. Her
position is further shown by her fail
ure to take any step toward the call
ing Of The Hague peace conference,
which was screduled for 1915, for
which preparations should now be go
ing forward.
Americans, the Navy leagues state
ment says, have some difficulty in get
ting the European view of all these
measures looking to reduction of arm
ament or international peace.
Europe refused to allow even con-
sideration of reduction Of armament
at the last Hague conference and Ger
many and Russia would have with
drawn from that conference II the
question had been insisted upon. the
league declares. ,ss
Since the Balkan war both these ma
tions are materially increasing their

The Declining Years
of a Great Builder.

1t is said that Henry NJ. Flagler, the
Standard Oil magnate, Is critically i'll
at his home at st. Augustine. The
news of his condition has been kept a
secret and the attendant physicians, it
is said, decline to give out any news.
However, it is reported the doctors
privately say there is little hope for
the recovery Of the millionaire. Mr..
F1agler has done a great deal for the
East Coast OF Florida and the whole
state win learn of his serious illness
with regret. still hoping he may re-
cover his health and strength. It is
said his condition seems to be due to a
general breakdown rather than dis
ease.-Pensacola Journal. Sentiments
which no doubt are greatly appre-
oiated coming from The Journal. but
alleged facts which indicate how far a
lie will travel. A few weeks ago some
Jacksonville newspaper correspondent
with no RECORD for the truth sent
broadcast report that Mr.. F1ag,er
was critically Ill. That afternoon Mr..
Flagler was in bette health than in
many months and was in his Sffice at

Charges Against
Senator Warren.

Although the state Of Wyoming
failed to cast its vote in the last elec-
ton for President Taft. the standpat
republican machine was so strong in
many Of the counties that the old line
republicans gained control of the legis-
lature. Grave charges were made in
that body against Senator Warren and
for some time his reelection to the
senate was In doubt. Warren has been
sent back to the senate.
Golfers Weekly, a publication of
more or less influence and response
bility, has reiterated these charges
against Senator Warren and has added
others. Some of these charges relate
to Illegal acquisition of public lands
and water rights and many of them
involve, not only moral turpitude but
a direct violation of the laws Of the
land. Since the publication In Col
lier's, many such newspapers like the
Chicago Tribune. OF wide circula ton
and much respectability, demand that
before Warren is seated in the senate,
he be required to clear himsslf of theee
grave charges.
II Senator Warren Is innocent of
these charges. his own Sense of de-
cency should make him demand an
investigation. Since the first trial of
Lorimer many OF the old line reaction
aries in the senate have been retired
to private life and that body now may
more easily take on itself the respon-
sibility for the manner in which q
member secures his election.

DR.. KENNEDY PROVES AGE
OF THE MELANCHOLY DANE

Pensacola, Fla. Feb. "a, 1913.
Editor Pensacola Journal.
In an article appearing in your Sun
day edition under the head, Walker
Whiteside in The Typhoon' to be pre-
sented in Pensacola" you say, in
speaking of Mr.. whiteside, that while
young in the matter Of years, he is old
in experience. He was bold enough to
have challenged the criticism OF New
York, when at the age of 19, he ap-
peared at the Union Square theatre
as Hamlet-at the very age Shake
speare ascribed his elusive hero to
have been"
AS lover of everything the Bard of
Avon ever wrote, please allow me space
enough to correct this statement con-
corning the age of the principal char
acter in this, the greatest Of all trage-
dies.
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, was 80
years OF age-not 19. How can we
prove It; simply enough, just follow
the text. In act five, scene first, the
first clown or grave digger shows
Hamlet skull, which he tells the
prince has lain in the earth three and
twenty years." and when Hamlet asks
Whose was it, the grave digger
answers This same skull,
sir, was Yoricks skull, the kings
JESTER" and Hamlet, taking the skull,
looks down at 1t, and turning to his
friend, says: "Alas poor Yorick! 1
knew him Horatio: a fellow of infinite
jest, of most excellent fancy-he hath
borne me on his back a thousand
times" Now Yorick had been dead %
years, so we gather from this that
Hamlet was over %. But how do we
know that Hamlet was 80 years of
age? In this same act, Hamlet asks
the first clown: How long hast thou
been a grave maker?" and the first
clown answers, "Of all the days fth
year, I came to t that day, that our
last king Hamlet oercame Fortinbras." !"
And Hamlet asks, How long is that
since?" The first clown says, Cannot
you tell that? Every fool can tell that:
ii was the very day that young Hamlet
was born: he that is mad, and sent
into England" And then after a few
sarcastic remarks about the English
and the manner In which Hamlet lost
! his wits, the first clown says: Il have
been sexton here man and boy, thirty
years" And don't forget that he came
to It the very day that young Hamlet
was born.
Pensacola is indeed fortunate to
have Mr.. whiteside with us on March
3rd. A southerner by birth, Walker
Whiteside has always brought us plays
worth while, and while / have not seen
him play Hamlet for many years,
consider him the greatest Shylock on
the English speaking stage today. He
is a profound student, is an artist to
lis finger tips, and with 1t all he pos
seSses that undesirable thing known
as personal magnetism, that none but
stars of the first magnitude possess.
AS Nick Smith says, 1 will vouch for
him.

third lot are out-and-out reactionary
impedimenta, just like barnacles. The
advocates Of both charters keep argu-
ing in circles and splitting hairs about
the relative merits and advantages of
this or that section in both charters.
But to my mind Cbarring the utilities
c;ause) the one fatal and damning
feature OF the Jones charter is It's
many-headedness; its multiciplicity of
c!d-style Aldermanic bosses, mis-
called Legislative commissioners" who
are expected to work for fun, honor
or glory cheek-by- jowl with three paid
commissioners. 1t is a serious ques-
tion whether they would work in har-
mony, whether they would all so work
together as to facilitate and expedite
the conduct of the city's business and
whether the paid members would not
resent or ignore the espionage, men
torship and dictation Of the unpaid
members. And who, Of these two sets.
would have precedence; who should
the public hold responsible when
things went wrong?
But what's the use of showing that
element in the third item Of cur in
ventory what good things have been
accomplished by Des Moines, or CAL
weston, or Mobile, or Birmingham
when up jumps any old Crafty man
from Mobile and says that some of
the officials in these cities are crooks
out for the spoils and that whatever
good has been done in his city has
been done by ME- and that repre-
sentative" bunch will applaud him. !
did not have the pleasure of hearing
him, but Judge he is entirely too
much Of an "Artful Dodger' to be
taken seriously by a people who are
making a serious and praiseworthy eff
fort to improve their civic condition.

An Income and
Corporation Tax.

AS it is likely the democrats viii re-
peal the Aldrich Law, the corporation
tax attachment will also have to go.
But the democrats feel it necessary. in
order to raise revenue, to deal with the
corporations much in the same way.
A bill will be introduced that Will raise
a hundred million dollars from an in
come tax including the corporation
tax. The democrats win consider the
early ratification Of the constitutional
amendment to sanction the income tax
law.
A question has arisen as to the ad-
visibility Of enacting an inheritance
tax law because many OF the states
already have similar laws or impose
heavy taxes on estates OF deceased
men OF wealth.

Just as soon as they get into Office.
Can't you see that you have nothing
to fear in giving a public servant
power-yes, real power. power to do
things-so long as you and the rest
of us voters retain OUR POWER to
hold them accountable for the proper
use of the power we have conferred
on and delegated to him? Here is
one article Of my faith that I shall
stick to, and which / believe you will
cne day understand, appreciate and
accept: "You will get best service
where you elect only few men. and
where each man has his definite duties
to and responsibilities and Is obliged
to work in the open, so that the peo-
pie know who he is and what he is
doing and will have the information
that will enable them to hold him
to account for his stewardship
This is only another way of putting
that spotlight" business that The
Journal editorial put so forcibly yes
terday.
You and your friends have made
much about the old system (and
intend this remark to apply to the
Jones plan) being what you call rep
resentative" Well, we differ on
that; differ on it fundamentally. You
think that the more we elect to Of
flee, the more the people are repre-
sented. The real facts are just the re-
verse of that. There are now so many
officials that they have come to rep
resent nobody but themselves. There
are too many OF them for the people
to know I don't believe there is one
voter in every ten who can name all
the officials or have a real practical
knowledge of them; and yet those
other nine (voters) have helped
blindly helped-to put these numerous
officials into office!
But what's the use Of further harp
ing on this string? for you and your
friends can't hear anything but dis
cord. Have you ever looked around
you to take an inventory of the class
of men who were opposed to commits
sion when We had the election and
are now Jones charter advocates? The
line is very clearly drawn between
that class and the class who voted
For Commission and are now sup
porting the Semmes committee char
ter. Let's you and I look at 'em to-
gether and let me help you to take
the inventory. Here's how the items
would read:
First-One small lot of nice, amiable
but misguided and mistaken gentle
men, with no apparent defects but
a rather bad case Of inertia.
Second-One larger lot of ofilce-
holders, who are otherwise all right,
except that they act as if the ground
were slipping from under their feet.
Third-One large bunch OF reaction
aries. afflicted with a disease COM
monty known as chronic kicker"
The first lot are animated by a
sense Of loyalty to that loyal-hearted
gentleman, Judge John B. Jones, and
are more or less subject to reason and
judgement. The second lot are like
that class Of men the old poet men
tions, who Never felt the Halter draw,
With good opipion of the Law" The
