FUND FOR THE ST NICHOLAS
GIRLS DISTRIBUTION WAS CON-
SIDERARLY SWELLED BY CON.
TRlRUTIONS OF YESTERDAY.
Yesterdays Contributions,

Donations received to account OF the
Doll and Toy fund yesterday totalled
S12.75, which, added to that previously
acknowledged, brings the fund UP at
present to $111.75. This is all the
cash in hand, but many other contri-
buttons Of fruits candies, ETC., have
been received from many sources, all
Of which has been duly acknowledged.
Contributions will be received gladly
today, however, and every cent will
be needed, as, instead of three hundred
children as at first thought would be
cared for, it has been found that as
many as five hundred were in need
of this work on the part OF the ST.
Nicholas girl, and, with a view OF car
ing for that many, the distribution will
be arranged.
The need, tn 'ore, Of additional
subscriptions of and suitable do
r-tions is at once oarent.
Shopping was indu.e in yesterday,
and a large number gifts were
secured for the distribute This work
will be continued today and by night
fall it is thought everything will be
in readiness for what promises to be
one Of the most successful free dis
tributions yet conducted by the ST.
Nicholas Girl in Pensacola.
Merchants who have contributed to
the fund, or who have given articles
of any kind, are requested by Miss
Ella Ward to send such to the Hannah
building, on West Romano street, after
10 o'clock today. She will be there to
receive them, and will appreciate it
if everything is delivered there as soon
after the hour named as possible.
1t is fully realized that there will
be lots to do before the doors are
opened Christmas morning to the hun
dreds of eyes, and 1t is desired that
as much be done today as possible.
The distribution, as herein stated
previously will take place at the Han
nah building, Christmas morning, and
the thoughtfulness of the st. Nicholas
Girl will be the means Of furnishing
to scores of little ones in this city
about the biggest pleasure they will
derive from this years Christmas le
bration. The hall has been cleaned ul,
and it is expected that it will present
an inspiring sight once the doors are
opened to the little boys and girls who
will storm the building early on Fri
day.

HARVESTING PEACHES.

The main crop of peaches in Tennes-
see ripens in July, but the early varie-
ties are ready in June. No fruit crop
REQUIRES more care in harvesting II 1t
Is to reach the consumer in good con-
dition. For rail shipment the peaches
must be gathered before the least in
dication of softness appears. 1t Is
quite impossible for peaches picked in
Tennessee and sold in Chicago to
reach the consumer in the greatest per-
fectionA because to be perfect the
peach must be fully ripe when picked,
and for shipment the fruit must be
picked a little before 1t is perfectly
ripe.
1t is important that the picker
should know the ripe color of every
variety. Greensboro, Carman, Belle
and Champion are all white-feshed va
rieties, but each has its own distinctive
color when fully matured; 1t is not all
q question of the amount of red in the
sunny side, either; there is different
tint of greenish-white in Carman from.
what there is in Belle.
For rail shipment the time to pick Is
when the first indications of ripe color
develop. The fruit will be quite firm,
but fllll-grown. For local markets the
ripe color should be fully developed.
The best picking baskets are half
bushel in size, round-shaped, with
swinging handles. Carefulness must
be the rule for the picker. A bruise in

market. A picker who squeezes a
peach to see If it is ripe enough to
pick must be discharged forthwith.
And no peach must be dropped-every
fruit must be held in the hand until 1t
rests on something in the basket.
Pick the peach with slight twist, be-

ENGINEERSI H0NORED

Atlanta, Ca, July 10.-Southern
Railway engineers who have made ex-
ceptionally good records in keeping
their locomotives in good condition
are to be honored by having their
names painted on the panels of their
cabs. In announcing this new plan,
Vice President and General Manager
E. H. Coapman states that it has been
adopted as mark of Southern Rail
which its engineers have taken in the
condition and appearance of their To-
comotives. Southern Railway practice
is, as far as possible, to allow each
regular engineer to have his individu-
al locomotive. The engineers feel
great personal pride in the appear
ance of their locomotives and many
of them have been beautifully deco
rated in which the company has CO.
operated with the men, AS a result
of the attractive appearance of South
ern Railway locomotives, they have
attracted widespread attention and
much favorable comment. Under the
new arrangement each engineer who
has run an individual locomotive for
a stated number of miles, rated ac-
cording to the class of the engine,
without going into the shop for gener-
al overhauling, will have his name
placed on the cab panel The ar
was effective July l, but
milage made during the past two
years by engineers running individual
locomotives will be applied.

Yet the same persons lose much
more time than would be required to
do all the things suggested, and do
them when they should be done.
Too many of us do not appreciate
the value of time or plan our work
ahead Last week | saw lot of land
intended for corn this year that had
not been touched, and now the people
intending to cultivate it are waiting for
rain so they can plot it. We have had
an unusually favorable time since last
fall to plOw land in preparation for
crops, and this land in question had
nothing on it, to prevent its being
plowed. At first there was plenty of
time, yet the favorable opportunity
passed, then something else came up
claiming attention-a political meeting
or some attraction in town. Time slip
ped by and now the land is untouched.
If the farmer who Is always making
the excuse that he has not time to do
the things that mean the difference be-
tween a nice profit on his farming
operations and bare subsistence, and
that means the difference between his
farm improving and getting poorer
each year, will be honest with himself
and keep record of every day he puts
in during the year that he would be
willing to pay another for If he were
hiring the work done, he will find at
the end of the year that he has lost
more time than he has actually put
in profitably.
Many of us do not realize how much
time we lose. | have known this tried
out, with a record of 1870 days actually
worked during the year.
Still some farmers-the majority of
them, in fact-imagine they work |
harder and longer hours than people
doing other kinds of work. ! have |
known farmers to get a crop very well |
under way, but when the sun began to |
shine warm they would quit the crop
too soon and cut by half the yield that |
could have been made.
| have seen crops harvested in the
shock and then allowed to stay in the
field until seriously injured. | have
seen serious loss from neglect of live
stock on the farm, and then / have
heard farmers blame the weather and
the land for their poor success, when
the fault was altogether their own, and
largely result of their utter disre-
gard of the value of time.

capital. They owe to themselves and
those dependent upon them the obliga-
ton of providing the necessities, COM

and their failure to do falls heaviest
