APP OI n MENT o..
PROBATION OFFICER
COMMISSION OF Mr.. PAULsEN
EXPIRES ABOUT OCT. IL, AND
HIS SUCCESSOR WILL PROB
ABLY BE NAMED.

Sam S. Pinney, who has been rec
commended to the governor for ap-
pointment as probation officer to sue
coed Fl. Paulsen, is in receipt of adj
vices from the state capital to the
effect that the commission of the
present probation officer will expire
about the 18th, and the intination is
made that the appointment of Mr..
Pinney will shortly thereafter be
Forthcoming.
Mr.. Pinney, anticipating an early
appointment, is familiarizing himself
with the duties of the office, which
are many. One of the matters
which he is getting interested in is
the matter of proper distribution of
books to children who were in need
of them for attendance upon the early
part of the public schools. In this
he is reported to have already dis
played natural aptitude, and al
ready gives promise of filing the
place with satisfaction.
Clerk Macgibbon, of the board of
county commissioners, has forward
ed to the governors Office the min
utes of the meeting at which the
board voted to recommend the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Pinney, and upon
the expiration of the former proba-
ton officers commission, the new
man will be ready to step into the
Office and take charge.

FRATERNAL DAY Is.
ON 4 BIC
SCALE FOR The FAIR
PROPOSITION WAS MADE RE-
GENTLY, AND THERE IS EVERY
INDICATION THAT IT WILL BE
BIG TIME THERE.

Fraternal Day is proposed for the
Escambia County Fair, and the indi-
cations are that it will be made one
If the really big things in connection
with the week of otherwise large
events.
Peter L. Rollo, the young man who
almost unsided landed the Woodmen
Encampment for Pensacola, has in
terested himself in the movement,
and he has had several conferences
with General Manager Lillard. The
idea appeals favorably to all to whom
it has been mentioned, and as PEN
sacola and the surrounding towns of
the county are well up in the fratern-
al order line, it would seem that such
events as would be in keeping with
the tenets of the respective orders
would be the means of drawing hun
dreds to Pensacola for that day at
least.
One of the big features which has
been proposed in connection with
such an event Will be q monster pa
rade, possibly on Friday, when it
is expected that every fraternal order
in the city will make arrangements
to have creditable representation
therein. The Fair Association has
promised to furnish at least one and
perhaps two bands for such turn
out, and Mr.. Rollo promised, on be-
half of the Uniform Rank, to have
the team in as good working order
as ever, and drilling by that body
will be features in addition to other
events of particular interest to the
w. O. w. Mr.. Rollo of course was
speaking for that order alone, but it
was believed that other leaders in
the other fraternal orders would come
forward and take the initiative in
placing their respective orders to the
front,

FAIR DIRECTORS IN
VERY BUSY SESSION
NUMBER ASSEMBLED AT Of
FICE OF GENERAL MANAGER
YESTERDAY AND TALKED
OVER MANY IMPORTANT MAT
TIERS.

Quite a number of important mat
tiers, looking TO the financing of the
fair, were discussed at a meeting OF
the board of directors, in the Office of
General Manager Lillard, yesterday
afternoon at 8 o'clock. Some of the
directors were unable to be present
on account of not being in the city,
but a sufficient number were on hand
to look after any and all matters
which were brought up for discussion.
The principal matter was that of
providing the necessary funds to pro-
vide for the opening of the fair, and
arrangements covering this very
necessary part Of the preliminaries
were made.
From now until the opening of the
fair, preliminary matters are to main
ly take up the time of the meetings
of directors. Small and numerous
matters of detail are generally left
for proper disposition and arrange
ment to the general manager, who
usually gets the approval of the
board Of directors to anything of inn
portance. There is a world of detail
to be worked out, too, and one may
easily find this out If he remains for
any length of time in the general
managers Office and witnesses the
many callers, and hears the numer-
GUS telephone requests for Mr.. Lii
lard.

A NEW
DRY FARM
CROP. P....

Agricultural teachers and investi-
gators of the University of Arizona
have found and given to the world
a new and wonderful dry farming
crop, the Tepary bean.
Some OF the acts about this newly
discovered bean, proved by its cul-
tivation on the experiment stations
of the University OF Arizona, and
elsewhere, are:
1t will germinate quickly in low
moisture content of the soil. Seed
sown in moist soil Monday evening
were showing through the ground
Thursday.
1t will bloom and set seed in any
month from May to November.
1t is able TO withstand protracted
seasons of drought without injury re-
turning to full vigor when the rains
come.
1t natures in two TO three weeks
less time than any other bean known.
1t will yield from 700 to 1000
pounds an acre under ordinary farm
ing conditions in the dry Southwest.
Under dry farming conditions it will
yield from 450 to 700 pounds an acre.
1t has yielded 2,370 pounds an acre
with ten inches of rainfall.

NATIONAL HORSE SHOW.
And Mid-Winter Fair Will Be Held
in Denver, Jan. 18 to 20.

The following. from Secretary
Johnson. OF the National Western
Stock Show. is self-explanatory:
There has been so many contra
dictory reports given out regarding
the Stock Show for this year, for
your information, | desire 10 state
just what the facts are.
I'VE had our plans made for the
largest Stock Show ever held in the
West but fear of the foot-and-mouth
disease had been spread here to a
very considerable extent SO our Asso-
citation felt compelled to abandon our
Show in toto as far as the Western
Stock Show Association was con-
cerned.
The united business organizations
OF Denver induced the Gentleman s
Driving and Riding Club to go ahead
with the Horse Show and such other
features of the Stock Show as would
not possibly involve any danger from
disease. The Show this year will be
known as. the National Horse Show
and Mid-Winter Fair and the indi-
cations are that it will be as inter
esting and important as any Show
| held heretofore, 1t will include a
Horse Show, Poultry Show, Agricul-
tural Show, Baby Show, Kennel
Show and an Industrial Show. While
there will be no ribbons placed upon
the cattle, plans have been made for
Very important sales Of western cat
tie both in breeding stock and in
feeders, and apparently there will
be as much business done in the
Stock Yards as at the annual show.
The people OF Denver are exceed
ingly interested in building up agri.
culture and live stock in the west and
the general feeling is that anything
that can be done to keep this indus
try moving is worth while. They are
spending large amount OF money tc
make Show Week big success and
as every possible safeguard has been
thrown around the event you car
assure your people that there will be
no danger from cattle contagion. As
a matter OF fact. there will be nc
eastern cattle at the Show this year.

War Raising Prices

The present European war is rails
ing prices. Wheat may go to Sl.5O
or $500 per bushel. but only % out
OF every 100 farmers raise wheat, yet
all farmers use flour. Potatoes may
advance in price, but less than one
half of the farmers of the United
States raise potatoes. Potatoes are
found on the table OF practically
every farmer. Cotton may sell for
Is or 20 cents pound. Cotton goods
are found in every farm home, but
less than 25 per cent of the farmers
raise cotton. In past years, two
thirds of this crop has been sold in
Europe. The war has closed Euro
pean factories, and instead of advanc-
ing. the price of cotton may decline.
At the present time no farmer raises
everything he uses War prices may
benefit him in some respect, but the
loss in others is sure to ovcrbalancc
the gain.
