The Small Farmer and
The County Fair.

The Fzsca mbia county fair Will take
place October 1924, and already the
farmers of the county are displaying
much interest in the agricultural eX-
position. Each year. heretofore. there
has been much rivalry between the
various counties of West Florida but
this fall the prizes will be all for Es-
Gambia county exhibits, and the expo
sitton will demonstrate just what can
be grown in this county
Those who visited the agricultural
department last year and saw not only
the splendid county exhibit but the
tine showing of the community exhi-
hits, must have been struck with the

before old Dixie Nature gets in another
bad lick, he should be up and doing,
preparing for the future, and doing his
part for the fair in October.
The drought is not by any means
peculiar to this part of the country,
but is prevalent to a great degree
throughout the south. east and west,
and when it's backbone is broken, 1t
behooves every farmer IN Escambia to
get busy and do what is possible to
make up for lost time, for there is
work to be done. and plenty of it, if
we are to make the Escambia county
fair what it should be.
Jackson county is preparing for a
big fair this year, and Escambia
to make as creditaole showing as we
should make, if every energetic man
in Escambia will do his part.
The annual fairs have come to mean
much to Pensacola. They should mean
more.
There IS no reason why the farmers
should not make good crops and make
them pay. Farming has never taken
the place in Fscamoia county that It
should take, and yet there is every
reason why this should be a good
farming community. The man who
complains must remember that this is
not peculiar to Escambia this year.
Letters from North Carolina to Pensa-
colians. only last week. told Of the
same conditions prevailing there, and
said that farmers were praying for
rain.
When the country is relieved of the
drought, we stil have several months
in which to prepare for our annual
fair. Let US all get together and see
what intelligence, hard work and co-
operation can do.
Remember that every little helps
If every small farmer will, do his
part. the fair will be a success;.i spite
of all the drought and all of the croaK-
ing. And without the small farmer an q
his interests and aid, the fair is like
ly TO be failure.
If you are a farmer. do your part.
If you are indirectly interested in the
farmers, show that interest by helping
the fair in whatever way you can. If
YOU are not a farmer, and not inter

FRANK FLETCHER
 NOW IN COMMAND
Admiral Takes Charges Of AtianE: Fleet, Relieving Admiral
 Badger.

New,YorK Sept. 1S.-With simple ceremony Rear Admiral Charles J. Badger yesterday turned over the command of the Atlantic fleet to Rear Admiral Frank F. Fletcher at the Kew York navy yards.
 Admiral Fletcher came aboard the Wyoming, which is moored at dock D in the Navy Yard, early this morn ing. The Wyoming has been Admiral Badgers flagship. In the presence of the staff the retiring commander read the order which placed Admiral Fletcher at the head of the United States most important war ship organization.
 There was no salute because guns are never fired while a battleship is in her deck, on account of the danger of injury to the vessel or her crib
 Admiral Fletcher is probably the best known American naval officer in active service, due to his excellent work at Vera Cruz. He is famous for several inventions which have ln- fluenced the ordinance of the wh Ole world and is rated high by scientific men. He is also an accomplished dlp- lomatist.
 Admiral Badger with his term of sea service now completed will join the general Naval board at Washing ton Captain Charles F. Hughee, Ad- miral Badgers Chief of staff, Will also go on the general board.

A FAIR WARNING
Onn That should Be Heeded by
 Pine Bluff Residents.

Frequently the first sign of kidney, trouble is slight ache or pain in the loins. Neglect of this warning makes tho way easy for more serious troup- les-dropsy gravel, Brisht's disease. 'Tis well to pay attention to the first sign. Weak kidnueys generally grow weaker and delay is often danger ous. Residents of this locality place reliance in Doan's Kidney Pills. This tested remedy has been used in kld- nev trouble over 50 years-ls recom- mended all over the civilized world. Read the following:
 Mrs. B. Sylvester, 1116 w. Fourth Ave, Pine Bluff. Ark, says: "A rel ative was cured of kidney disease by Doan's Kidney Pills. l have also talk en them for backache and other kid ney troubles which have made Doan Kidney Pills positive cure in our fam fly. l am glad to tell others how greatly they helped us.'

The precision and power of modern arms require this. With such immense forces and present-day tactics the line of battle will practically cover the length of the frontier. Along their range the Browns have a series of fortresses commanding natural open ings for our attack. These are almost impregnable. But there are pregnable points between them. Here, our method will be the same that the Japa- nese followed and that they learned from European armies. We shall con- centrate in masses and throw in wave after wave of attack until we have gained the positions we desire. Once we have tenable footholG on the crest of the range the Brown army must fall back and the rest will be a matter of skillful pursuit. ''
 The premier as ne listened, rolled the paper knife over and over, regard ing it's polished sides, which were like Westerlings manner of facile state ment of program certain Of fulfill ment.
 How long will it take to mobilize?'
 Less than week after the rail roads are put entirely at our service, with three preceding days of scattered movements answered Westerling. Deliberate mobilzations are all right for a diplomatic threat that createg 2 furore in the newspapers and ae. pression in the stock market, but which is not to be carried out.

 You would have made a good poll. tician, Westerling,' the premier re. marked, with twitching uplft of the brows and a knowing gleam ill his shrewd old eyes.
 Thank you," replied Westerling "a man who is able to lead in anything must be something of politician
 ssVery true, indeed Perhaps l had that partly in mind in making you vice-chief of staff" responded the pre- mier.
 "Then it all goes back to the public ito that enormous body of human ity out there!" He swung the paper knife around with outstretcheG arm toward the walls of the room. "To public opinion-as does everything else in this age--to the people-our masters, your and mine. For nc man can stand against them when they say no or yes"
 You know the keys to play on, though" remarked Westerling with a complimentary smile. "No one knows quite so we'll"
 And you are sure-sure we can Win?' the premier asked with long, tense lcok at Westerling, who was steady under the scrutiny.
 Absolutely" he answered. Five millions against three! It's mathe- matics, or our courage and skill are

not equal to theirs. Absolutely. We have the power, why not use it? We do not live in dream age.'
 From a sudden, unwilling exertion of his strength the knife which had been the recipient of his emotions snapped in two. Rather carefully the premier laid the pieces on the table before he rose and turned to Wester- ling, his decision made.
 If the people respond with the war fever, then it is war" he said. T take you at your word that you will win."
 "A condition!" Westerling an- nounced Prom the moment war be- gins the army is master of all intelli- gence, all communication, all re- sources. Everything we require goes into the crucible!"
 And the press-the mischievous, greedy, but very useful press?" asked the premier.

 But if the flame were about to burst forth she smothered it in the spark.
 And all this has upset me-" she went on incoherently. We've both been cruel without meaning to be, and we're in the shadow of nightmare: and next time you come perhaps all the war talk will be over and-oh. this is enough for today."
 She turned quickly in veritab ble flight and hurried toward the house.
 If it ever comes," she called, "Jll let you know! I'll fly to you in a chariot of fire bearing my fame-I am that bold, that brazen, that reckless: For l am not an old maid, yet They've moved the age limit up to thirty.
