War Prices for
Home Products.

In several Of the warning European
countries action has been taken by
the government to prevent speculation
In the necessities of life and as re-
suit, while prices range somewhat
higher than ordinary. there has been
no great advance in the price of food
stuffs, notwithstanding impending
scarcity.
In the United States, where we have
more food than we know what to do
with. speculation has already boosted
prices considerably, with prospects
for great advances If the war is long
continued.
AS an evidence Of the tendency of
speculatos to take advantage of the
situation the recent increase in the
price OF sugar may be mentioned.
Sugar, until two or three days ago,
was quoted at 4 1-2 cents per pound,
wholesale. The price Of sugar today is
a little over cents-and this not
withstanding the fact that the supply
Of this country has not been impaired
by the war. Coffee has also advanced
considerably. with promise Of still
BrCdteT ADVANCE DSTduSe VI tic war
and the greater portion Of the coffee
used in this country is from South
American plantations. There is an i'm
niense surplus of wheat in this coun-
try which, under ordinary conditions,
would mean a reasonable market. But
at the first news Of war the price is
forced skyward by speculation.
With the loss to the government
which will be occasioned by the prac-
teal stoppage OF importations. it is
highly probable that some method of
producing revenue will be resorted to,
and the only method Of raising funds
is by direct or indirect taxation. But
few will object to a direct tax to sup
port the government in case Of neces-
sity is obvious. But there will be OBJ
lection to paying fancy prices for
staple articles Of food that spectators
may amass wealth, and serious OBJ
lection
In the present crisis, IL common
decency does not dictate fairness and
equity in the distribution Of necessi-
ties. action should be taken by Con-
gress to prevent extortion. The gen.
eral government, which has the right
to impose a direct tax for its main
tenance, should see to 1t that the peo-
pie are not burdened by high prices
due wholly to speculation.

The silent mourner, robed in black,
may not stop the war; may have no
real effect, but it will demonstrate
again the women bear the brunt Of a
war in a sad way, perhaps as heart
rending as the scenes on the battle
field.
When Sherman declared that war
is hell, he must not alone have had
in mind the picture of the wounded
and dying on the battlefield, or the
desolate and blackened ruins Of the
homes, or a fair land vastated as if
the flames from the Internal region
up all that was beautiful and glor-
ious, but he must also have had in
mind the wan, sad faces. drawn with

women clothed in black" and refus-

loved ones were not.

land and water; in the future the his

the great battles that have been
fought in the hearts of the women of
the world; but nothing can ever fully
record their deep emotions and their
great sorrow.
The women of the United States,

bitterness of war, will sympath ize
with their European sisters-will feel
for them from the depths of their
hearts.

The Silent Mourners
Who Suffer at Home.

A New York press dispatch reads as
follows:
New York. Aug. 7-As a protest
against the war in Europe, a move
ment has been started here by suf-
frage leaders for a parade OF women
gowned In funeral black on Saturday,
August 90. or Sunday, August %. APP
peals for women to march for peace"
were ready to be sent out today. Miss
Lillian Deaver, who is in charge of the
movement for woman's political union,
said that fully 10000 favorable replies
were expected within a few days. Miss
Deaver explained that the parade
would have nothing to do with suf-
frage and that anti suffragists would
be especially invited to participate"
The foregoing shows the deep inter-
est OF the women Of the United States
In the great war that is now just bes
ginning to rage among the European
nations.
While a parade of the kind mention
ed, held in New York. will have little
or no effect On the war situation in
Europe, yet there is a sad lesson in It
that should really stir the whole world.
1t shows that the women of the
world realize what this war means to
them and to the perpetuity of peace
and happiness.
In some places, in our Southern
country, monuments have been build
ed to the noble women who went
through the trying times OF the civil
war, and the almost equally trying
times of the construction period.
This is right and proper and The
Journal believes that in every South
ern town or city. where monuments
have been erected to the memory of
gallant soldiers, there should be, side
by side, a monument to the silent
mourners who stayed at home and en-
couraged their loved ones who went
to the 'front.' and who, remaining at
home. watched and waited with bated
breath and tear-stained eyes for news.

providing clothing and other things to
be sent TO the front.
No. they did not personally shed
blood, and yet their blood was on
every battlefield. for it ran in the
veins Of their best beloved.

OPPOSES DANCING ON
SUNDAY NIGHTS

Editor Pensacola Journal.
l was returning to Pensacola last
Sunday night by way Of the Bay Shore
car, and as we passed Palmetto Beach
crowd Of young people who boarded our
car coming to town. All of the young
people seemed to be full Of life, laugh
ing. talking, and singing. AS We drew
near the city l asked why this crowd
had gathered at Palmetto Beach, and
TO my surprise / was informed they
had been enjoying a dance. Then I
was informed that this was carried on
every Sunday night, and that great
crowds of young people from PenSa-
cola and vicinity would gather at this
place early Sunday evening and dance
until late at night and then return
home.
Thinking it over, have decided that
to remain mute on the subject would
be doing the young people, and the
cause, which l represent an injustice.
If going down to the beach and en-
gaging in the dance on Sunday night
is right, then let's all close up our
churches and go down. both Sunday
morning and night. Then If it is not
right the sooner we find it out the
better it is for us and our town.
There is such thing as doing the
right thing at the wrong time. l be-
lieve laughing is good, and right, but
it is very much out Of place to laugh
at a funeral. So dancing may not be
any harm during the week. but TO
dance on Sunday is very much out
Of place.
Personally. I object to the dance
at any time. and I give as my rea-
son the following:
Personally, I object to the dance
is downward. And l believe also that
the persons who follow the dance will
not have the Christian influence that
they would have should they abstain
from same. Again I believe that those
dances given at Palmetto Beach on
Sunday night are against the spiritual
uplift Of our city. And I am sure
that the young people who attend
them. If they will stop and think, will
agree with the writer.
1 favor the move made by our city
to rid the town of rats in order if
possible to promote good health.
favor a move made also to promote
the spiritual up-lift of our town. I
have learned since last Sunday that a
great many Of the young people who
attended the dance are members of
our local churches. Strange that some
OF cur local pastors have not heard

could approve of this Sunday night
dance. l would be pleased to hear
from some of them on this question,
if they don't mind taking a stand.
/ would love to see the young peo-
pie of our town who claim to be try
ing to lead a Christian life be given
some light on this question by our
local pastors. | can only speak for
myself, but l must say l certainly do
oppose this Sunday night dance.

GOVERNMENT AIDS HOG CHOLERA FIGHT SERUM IS ONLY REMEDY DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL-
 TURF REPORTS RECENT
 INVESTIGATIONS.

Washington, D. C., March 1.-The department of agriculture, during the past year, has been conducting cam paigns in Indiana, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska to control the contagious disease of hogs known as "hog chol- era," by means of anti-hog cholera serum and farm quarantines. In one county (Pettis county, Missouri) !, where there was loss of IS per cent in 1911 and 25.6 per cent in 1912 of all hogs raised, there was only loss of 14.7 per cent up to November, 1913. This decrease was due to the use of the serum, which, although not used there by the departments agents until August, 1913, materially reduc- ed the loss. About 60,000 hogs were raised during the past year and of the 10000 that died of the hog chol- era only about 1000 were lost after the active use of serum and quaran- tine measures were inaugurated.
 In every county where these meas ures were employed, even though be- gun after the disease had continud it's ravages for sometime, there was less loss from hog cholera than in either of the two preceding years.
 In addition to it's great function as preventive, it has been found that the anti-hog cholera serum would cure large proportion of hogs in the early stages of the disease and ren- der them immune after recovery However, if hogs are not treated by this serum, from 75 to 100 per cent of all affected herds die. This serum, SC far as is known, is the only thing that will prevent the disease.
 Of hogs actually sick when treated the departments inspectors lost but 25 per cent during the past summer Of well hogs in diseased herds, 2.s per cent died after being treated and of hogs in exposed herds less than l per cent died after being inoculated with the serum. In an infected herd there is always a certain proportion l of hogs that are we'll
