conversion of the United States bu-
reau of education into national Uni
versity for school teachers was advo-
Gated today by Former President Taft
in an address before the New York
State Teachers Association.
Mr.. Taft criticized our present sys-

Gent and superficial, and suggested
that the federal government might,
through a system of inspection and
criticism, aid the states in bringing
about higher standards. He declared
that the boys of England, Germany
and France were better educated be-
cause of lax discipline and lack of
thoroughness. "The German youth
Of fifteen" he declared, ais as well

BREED IS FINEST
THAT CAN BE HAD

A car load Of imported Herefords,
purchased at the great stock show in
Atlanta, passed through Pensacola
yesterday. They were in charge of
Parks Fillingim, a man who has de-
voted his life to stock breeding and
raising and who will have charge of
the Mobiles stock farm at Wallace,
in Santa Rosa county, a property
owned by the Pace brothers, and
where, it is expected stock raising
viii be engaged in on an extensive
scale.
The herd of Herefords is composed
of young cattle, but the male already
has valuation of more than 81 600.
They were picked from among a
large number of Herefords and
other breeds and are considered. the
best possible to obtain.
Within few days dozen i'm
ported Belted Hampshire hogs will
arrive in Pensacola aad be sent on
through to the same farm. This
breed is considered the best, all
things considered for Florida. The

name is derived.
While the Mobiles stock farm will
be operated for profit by raising the
fine breeds of cattle and hogs, the
prime motive of Mr.. Fillingim and
those associated with him is to dem
onstrate the possibilities of stock
jraising in West Florida.
The soil is peculiarly well adapted
to growing velvet beans and stock
food, and for this reasen stock can
be fed at nominal cost. With the
finer breeds being raised this bust
hess in few years would become
highly profitable. No one can expea,
