MANY HEARTS TO
BEGLADDENEOAT
MAYORS OFFICE
MR.. GREENHUT PLANNING TO
GIVE PRESENTS OF TOYS AND
CANDIES TO ABOUT TWO HUN
pRED OF LITTLE FRIENDS.

Mayor Greenhut is planning to give
presents of toys and candies to about
two hundred of his little friends on
Christmas morning, and in the office
of the chief executive at the city hall
yesterday were stored boxes to be
handed out by the mayor and his two
little sons, to all children who present
themselves at the city hall Christmas
morning, between 8 and 10 o'clock.
These gifts will be distributed as long
as there are any callers and there are
many presents on hand.
Mayor Greenhut instituted this
Christmas morning diversion a year
ago, and he said yesterday that the
appreciation which was shown upon
that occasion has causeo him to make
one resolution that he intends to keep,
and that is as long as he holds the
chair at the city hall. the free distri-
button will be a Christmas morning
work Of his own and Of his individual
planning.
'There will be no Santa Claus cos
tunes in It." laughed the mayor when
asked If he was going to play the part
of the old saint himself for the hap
py crowds. 'It will be simply a dis
tribution OF gifts by myself and two
little sons. II is an idea of my own,
and / am sure the appreciation shown
by the crowds a year ago well repays
anyone repeating the distribution. In
Pensac cola there are many children,
many families, who do not and will
not, readily and freely. go to the
churches. Reasons for their absence
are many and it is not necessary to
recall them, and you kno wit as well
as anyone. But the children will go
to the city hall, and they are to be
welcomed by the mayors two little
sons and the mayor himself. No for
maIity will attach itself to the days
doings, and l want all children who
will. and who are not otherwise re-
membered. to come and be assured of
a welcome"

SEA KING MADE
A GREAT TRIP
PENSACOLA VESSEL WENT TO
JACKSONVILLE AND BACK
WITHOUT MisHAP, BUT Wealth
ER WAS VERY HEAVY.

Completing a trip to Jacksonville
and return, the big tug Sea King,
reached port yesterday shortly after
2 o'clock, making the last leg of the
long trip from Key West to Pensacola
in exactly fifty hours, distance said
to be 450 miles, over the route taken
by this steamer.
Upon reaching here, the fine tug
was boarded by friends of the captain
and crew, and Captain Aiken, the
owner of the tug, went aboard as soon
as the big steamer had docked, and
personally congratulated the master
upon the trip, which was regarded as
an unqualified success. The steamer
left here on the last of November and
could have returned several days
sooner had she not have been detained
at Key West on account of the unfav-
orable weather, and when that port
was left behind, it was heavy weather
over the entire trip of more than 400
miles.
A tow of a dredge and scows was
picked up at Port Inglis and delivered
safely and without incident to Jack
sonville consignees, thence, inside OF
a very few hours, the Sea King started
on the return trip, stopping in at Key
West. Had the tugs services have
been required yesterday upon arrival.
the steamer was in good condition to
do any sort of work.

TIME FOR DISKING ALFALFA
CONDITIONS Are Not Same Everywhere
and Farmer Must Exercise His
Own Judgment.

Practical experience has shown that
dlsklng alfalfa under certain condi
lions is beneficial to the crop, vet
many farmers will not cultivate their
alfalfa plants in any way for fear OF
| killing them.
AS with other crops, the cultivation
OF alfalfa must be done with Judgment.
The main object in cultivating alfalfa
plants, which usually consists in disk
Ing, is to kill summer grasses. The
individual farmer must know when his
particular field must be disked. A
writer in a certain section will state
that, say, July is the proper time A
man in another section and climate
will disk his field at that time and
meet with poor success. Here is
Where Judgment counts. Conditions
are not the same everywhere.
The time to disk alfalfa is Just be-
fore or at the time summer annual
grasses begin to grow. This time may
be in July in one section and June in
another section. 1t may be after the
nrst cutting, or after the second cut
ting. Each man must know when
summer grasses begin to grow in his
locality, and set his disk to working
accordingly.
There is no danger whatever to well
established alfalfa plants in disking.
The plants are deep rooted and will
not be pulled out if they are not cut
off. Splitting the crowns will do no
damage. Some of the best alfalfa
growers give their alfalfa fields a Sc
we're disking and cross-disking every
year Some claim that it is impossi- |
BILE to injnre the plants, no matter
how the implement is set or run. The |
disk cuts up the surface and kills
grass without injuring the alfalfa
plants. Another object in summer
lisking is to loosen the surface to adj
nit air, and create a surface mulch
or holding moisture. Narrowing after
lisking in dry weather is an adyan-
age.

SOIL FOR GROWING LEGUMEs
Starting Point in Improvement Of
Sandy Land and important In
Maintenance of Fertility.

When legumes, such as clovers, al
falfa, peas, beans, etc, are we'll sup
piled with the necessary moisture,
phosphorus potassium. calcium and
other necessary elements, they are
able to grow on soils extremely low
in organic matter and by their growth,
and when turned under, are able to
add to the vegetable matter of the soil
and by leaving a supply of nitrogen,
they fit the soil for the growth of 9th
or crops not supplied by nature with
this special method of securing their
nitrogen. The growing of legumes,
therefore, is the starting point in the
improvement of sandy soils and is the
most important practise in the main
tenance of their fertility.

Not Good for Pastures.

With feed scarce and high priced,
there is a great temptation to turn
the live stock on pasture at the earli-
est possible time, but this is not good
for the pastures. Pasture plants
grow through the agency of their
leaves or green parts, as well as
through their roots, and If the leaves
or green parts are kept eaten off close
to the ground all the time. less growth
less feeds made.
