Rural Credit and Rural Thrift

The South and the West and the Northern agricultural states have much to learn in the way of rural thrift from the New Eng land communities. The const-
 ant cry is easier credit for the farmer, but what the farmer most needs is more thrift.

CLOSED UP AND MADE READY
-R. M. WELLS IN CHARGE OF
THE MOTORCYCLE RACES.

Directors of the Escambia County

day at a p. M, when number of
matters which had been brought up

looks good for the big event to take
place here in November.
r. M. Wells was named as chair
man of the committee on motorcycle

make ready an attractive card for
this exciting event. This gives prom
Use of being one of the really excit-

Word has been received from the
amusement concession, and the prom
Use was sent that "a fine guar
anteed line of attractions will be sent
on" which means that, outside of the
agricultural show the amusement
features will in no way be neglected.
Some of the exhibitors who pre-
pared articles for the last year fair,
and who have so notified the directors
will be notified soon that anything
which was put up in preparation for
exhibiting at the 1914 fail will be
admitted in the Forthcoming fair
and will be given extra prominence
From now on, the directors will be
very busy people, for there are details
to be arranged which will require
much time and attention, and these
are being reached and covered as
fast as possible.

MILTON HORSES
REACH CITY AND
READY FOR FRAY
EIGHT FINE MOUNTS WERE
RIDDEN FROM SANTA ROSA'S
LIVELY CITY BY AS MANY
YOUNG MEN.

Starting from Milton about 1880
o'clock yesterday morning, eight
young men, riding as many horses
which will probably be entered in
the tournament Friday, reached the
city via the Ferry Pass route at $50
o'clock and at once took their ami
mails to Kupfrian's park, where they
were quartered for the night.
Today those from Santa Rosa coun-
ty who will take part in the Friday
tournament, will all be here, and will
practice in all the evolutions of said
notable attractions. The young men
from Milton say they are going in
to win, not the first prize, but are
not going to stop until practically all
the trophies of any consequences are
safely put away.
Those who were here last night,
and who rode all the way from Milton
were Messrs. P. T. Mccarthy, E. L.
Hamilton, G. w. Allen, F. w. Allen,
c. P. Jernigan, ]. P. Whitnire, S. T.
Grain and ]. H. Collins. The latter
three will be here today also for
practice.
The indications last night were that
the tourney will be one of the most
attractive events to be conceived of,
and that the record crowd will be
on hand goes without saying. Mil
ton and other places in Santa Rosa
county are going to send full dele
cations, and the attendance from the
city promises to be extra large.

COMMUNITIES FEEL
DECREASED TAX INCOME

Berlin, Aug. 24.-The ordinary
beer drinker is not the only person
to suffer from the material restric-
tons in the productions of beer, in
order that grain may be saved for
food purposes. Whole communities
are feeling the decreased tax income.
In the district comprising Greater
Berlin. it is estimated what is to be
a tax reduction of about so per cent.
on beer because of the reduced pro-
duction, and eight communities in
this district are going to be without a
cent of beer income during the cur
rent year.
