THE ST. NICHOLAS GIRLS
,oII AND TOY FUND,

The St. Nicholas Girls Doll and
NV fund IS attracting attention not
rIv in Pensacola but in other cities,
m From Montgomery comes a let
or from a former Pensacolian, ex-
ressing interest in the work the St.
zithoIas Girl is trying to do, and wish
~ it all success, and from another
7arby town has come q message of
gAeting from young woman who has
al interesting place for helping the
eIuse, which will be given publicity,
d time.
7But the days are passing by and
he fund is not growing very fast. Last
hear the young men who gave two
hall games to the cause contributed
jabout two hundred dollars, and there
Twas about one hundred dollars con-
tributed by those who were interested
in making Christmas happy for the
children.
This year there are many reasons
why the fund is not so large. One rea-
son is that there is such a great need
for food and clothing that it is not
possible to do as much as was done
for the children last year. And yet
more than fifty dollars was raised for
the Christmas ship, besides warm
clothing and toys. The fund would
have been larger but there were many
who felt that they must help those at
home. There is greater need this year
than last year and so it may be that
the good Christmas Saint will find it
harder to get to all the girls and boys.
But he will not forget them. They
may be sure OF that. He never does
Already many gifts have been. re-
that other little children
have played with and some new ones,
and fifteen dollars and fifty cents in
cash.
Several Pensacola merchants will
place baskets in their stores plainly
marked, The st. Nicholas Girl Doll and
Toy Fund. So that will be one way to
help when you do your Christmas
shpoipng. Drop a toy in the st. Mich
olas Girls basket.

We have been furnished by the Bell Telephone Co.
with copy of the report Of its president TheO
N. Vail The great system that has been built up under
his supervision and through his personal efforts fuv

business world and his utterances usually taken
seriously by the public In this report however he voun-
teers arguments against the proposed ownership of
Telephones and Teegraphs by the Government to which
large majority viii enter protest. The reports show
that the profits of the combined companies, doing
business under the name of the Bell Telephone
Co. have made net profit of $780, 300 OOO and we rather
think that this vast "MelOn" may be the inspiration
that prompted Mr. Vail to the people against the
folly Of getting better service for less money through
government ownership Mr. Vail says:

GRAZING ALFALFA

| have noticed that Prof. w. T.
Massey attributes the loss Of a
stand of alfalfa to the pasturing
of the field.
In recent issue, Mr.. Walter
Clark. Of GAINESVILLE, Miss al
grower of Is years experience,
states that pasturing does little if
and damage, Mr.. Clark states
that the alfalfa should be pastur-
ed Immediately after cutting. In
course of a somewhat extensive
reading ON the culture and treat
ment Of alfalfa this is the first
time | have seen an article from
an experienced grower advising
the pasturing of alfalfa fields i'm
mediately after moving. In all
my reading | have been very for

In October, 1912, | seeded a
five acre field in alfalfa. The
stand and incubation we're per-
feet. The first cutting on April
Is, 1918. gave a ton and a half to
the acre; the second cutting in
May gave ton to the acre. After
the first cutting a small cornor of
the field-about one square rod
was cut once when about half
grown as soiling for pig feed.
At the second cutting this small
patch was again about half grown
and was moved along with the
full cutting. This treatment of,
the small patch killed the alfalfa
thereon completely. Mr.. Jos. E
Wing, of Mechanicsburg,O re-
counted in the Breeders Gazette
a parallel experience last sum-
mer.
After my second cutting of al
falfa in May, the field was at
tackled by the lined blister beetle.
These pests kept most of the
young alfalfa shoots eaten off,
s. that my third cutting was very
light. After the third cutting.
the field became completely in

stand of alfalfa was destroyed

Mexican Love OF EIowars.

There is one unfailing charm about
Mexican houses, writes II. Hamilton
Fyfe in the Daily Mail That is the
charm of flowers. All Mexicans love
flowers. Their homes present to the
street bare, unlovely walls, with
barred and close curtained windows.
Very often, though, you get a glimpse
as you pass the open door of a patio
where the sunlight flickers on green
leaves and vivid blossoms. Always
you may count upon such an interior
even if you cannot see it.
