the following:

To the Public:

The small compensation paid To-
cal agents by Fire Insurance Com
panies for handling their business
and the requirements Of these COM
panies as to the prompt remittance
of balances will not permit of ex-
tended credit to the public and at
the same time allow the industry to
remain on legitimate and profitable
basis to the agents.
Therefore to correct the rapidly
growing tendency towards unlimited
extension Of credit, which unfortu-
nately has become quite general in
the insurance business in Pensacola,
we the undersigned local agents have
found it necessary to adopt the fol-
lowing rule with reference to the
payment of premiums, which becomes
effective August 1, 1915, viz:
Premium in full on each and every
FIRE and tornado insurance policy
must be paid in cash before the goth
day Of the second month following
the month in which the policy is m
sued, after which time II the premium
on any policy remains unpaid the
agent writing the same shall have no
further option as to extension of
credit and shall Immediately take W
said policy"
We solicit the cooperation of the
insuring public Of Pensacola and sin
cerely trust they viii appreciate the
necessity prompting this action anc
the spirit in which it is intended.

SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL
Century, July 6.--Pursuant to a
call from the local committee the
good people Of Century and surround
ing neighborhoods met at the picnic
grounds in Century Monday, July 9th,
at 7:30 p. M, to join with fellow
Americans throughout the length and
breadth of those United States in
singing the "Star Spangled Banner"
and other patriotic songs. The SER
vices were as follows:
Address, by Jas. H. Jones, of Cen
fury.
Song, america" by all present.
Invocation, by Rev. M. J. Bouterse.
Song, ssThe Star Spangled Banner, !"
by all present.
Address, by Judge Ben D. Turner,
of Washington County, Ala.
Song, 1.-THE Red, White and Blue, .
by all present.
Pledge to the Flag, in unison, by
all present.
Song, "Dixie," by all present.
Three Cheers for cold Glory" by
all present.
The plan for the singing of 'sThe
Star Spangled Banner" by the people
of the United States, at the same
time was originated, as claimed by
press reports, by w. C. Grigsby, an
Indianapolis newspaper man, three
years ago. It is said that the first
year in more than 1000 places, peo-
pie joined in the singing of this song
The next year more than 5000 houses
had special programs. This year il
Is estimated that more than 10000
congregations of Americans stood, al
p. m, Washington time, and raised
their voices, in appropriations Of the
"Stars and Stripes" and helped tt
sound a wave of patriotism from
coast to coast.
The platform and grounds whert
this service was held were well light
ed, beautifully decorated with our
flag, and some 200 people present en-
joyed the services from beginning tt
end. In fact, it was a most enjoy
able occasion. The address by Judg,
Turner on sour Flag" deserves espe
cial mention.
It is to be hoped that many mor'
people, of many more places, will joil
in this movement next year and tina
this service may become completed!
National in every sense of the word.

said, with her last breath. The paren

Among the crops that can be sub stituted for cotton, none is more gen erally practicable than cowpeas and soy beans Both crops are extremely well adapted to the soils and climate of Arkansas. Both are fairly certain to produce good yields of highly nu. tritious forage and grain.
 AS a rule cowpeas will do better on poorer soils than soy beans The soy beans perhaps, have a slight advantage in withstanding drought. Cowpeas have an advantage in that they continue their growth un- til frost, whereas, soy beans must be harvested at a certain time or the leaves fall off.
 Cowpeas, usually produce larger yield of forage than most varieties of soy beans, but not so much grain Late varieties of soy beans, however, are high yielders of forage, but do not produce much grain. Cowpea varie-
