In cushioned hooks they read their

with eager paws they helped their

maidens then would shy at men
and keep them at distance, and
each new sport who came to court
was sure to meet resistance. The

Large Sans of Mcney Are E~oenGad
Yearly Tor Fc~t',,t@is Contain
inO This Element.

One of the most important plant
and tree foods is nitrogen. Large
Sums of money are spent every year
by farmers and fruit growers for fer
tilizers containing this element. The
air we breathe is the greatest known
storehouse of nitrogen, but the nitro
gen in the air is not in form which
can be directly used by the plants. 1t
can, however, be converted into a
disable form by the action of soil bac-
teria-those microscopic organisms
which exist in soils and materially af-
feet the growth of crops. Cultivation
brings these soil bacteria into direct
contact with the air from which they
take the nitrogen and convert it into
food for the adjacent plants and trees.
Without cultivation this beneficial ac-
tivity of these minute organisms is
greatly restricted, and consequently
uncultivated orchards are not as we'll
supplied with the food materials re-
Quired for the prolific production of
fruit Of the best quality. Cultivation,
too, keeps in the moisture of the soil,
and give the rain and sun chance to
produce the best results.

LIVE STOCK MEANS SUCCESS
No Better Place for Farmer to MarUet
Corn and Roughase Than to
Give to Animals.

On nearly every farm live stock
raising is merely side line where 1t
should be the main thing There is
no place where the farmer can market
his corn and roughage so profitably as
feeding 1t to good live stock. The mar
ket is right at home in the feed lot,
and no long hauls to town are neces-
sary. If farmer can feed his 60-cent
corn to good hogs which will pay him
so cents for it, does he not make an
advance on the price of his corn and
a profit in the fertility returned to the
soil, as well as a saving of expense in
hauling? Breeding pure-bred live
stock is a business which should be
entered gradually and retired froam
reluctantly. Improving the common
stock a little each year viii lead up to
the pure-bred business. There can

". ]. Lillard, Receiver
For The Pensacola News.

The selection by Judge Sheppard OF
~ j. Liliard as receiver for the Pen
sAcola News. which was declared
bankrupt on January Fl. will do more
probably, than anything else that
could be done, to inspire confidence
In the reorganization and future per-
n1anence of the afternoon paper.
The News had been lettering for
many months and, as was generally
believed. had besn losing money for a
long time. In. fact, there was prob
ably never a year of its existence when
IL ever made more than operating ex-
penses.
But there is no reason in the world
why an afternoon paper in Pensacola,
properly conducted should not pay a
handsome profit on the investment.
Afternoon papers pay in other cities
and the business people of Pensacola
are as generous with their patronage
to the afternoon paper here as they
are in any other place. The same
policy that has made afternoon papers
profitable elsewhere will make one
profitable here.
Pensacola needs two good newspa-
pers-one morning and one afternoon
Pensacola will support two good news
papers. The Journal can think of no
greater calamity that could befau the
business standing and reputation of
this city than to have the story go
forth that there was aot sufficient
business here to make one morning
There is sufficient business here to do
1t, there always has been sufficient
business. and should the time ever
come when there was not enough
business for two good papers. The
Journal itself would lose faith in the
city. 1t is, in fact, through no lack
OF business support that the Pensacola
News Is not today a paying property,
and any theory to the contrary is a
reflection on the business community
that IS both untruthful and unde-
served.
The Journal trusts that the Pensa-
cola News may be speedily reorganized
IN such a way as to put 1t on a pay
ing and permanent basis. While this
reorganization is being effected, The
Journal hopes that the business peo-
pie of Pensacola will extend the same
patronage to the afternoon paper that
would be extended under ordinary cir
cuanstanceS The receiver, Mr. Lillard,
is an old newspaper man who will
put the paper on it's feet If anyone
can. He commands the respect and
confidence OF the community and In
his present work he has The Journals
good will and best wishes for success
