BIG CRoP---THEN RUIN

TO the members Of the Farmers
Union and farmers generally
throughout the cotton states:
The other day | read from a re-
port that there are $4,000 farms in
Texas which have no cows, $4,000
which have no pigs, 10000 without
poultry, 800 farms that do not grow
a pound Of hay and $4,000 that
raise no sweet potatoes. This state
ment is more than surprising; it is
appalling. If these are conditions
in Texas, one Of the greatest farm
ing states, they exist to as great or
greater degree in the other cotton
growing states Of the south.
There is the seat Of our trouble
here in the south. Too many Of us
are continuing to concentrate on
one product alone-cotton. AS long
as you keep on raising nothing but
cotton and paying out your cotton
money for forage and feed and

WARNS COTTON PLANTERS.

Washington, March 9-The De-
partment Of Agriculture on April 8,
1914, and again on March 2, 1915,
issued warnings to farmers of the
southwest against planting varieties
Of cotton that usually produce a
staple Of less than seven-eights inch
in length, especially such varieties
that are said to produce half seed
and half lint. In view of the ap-
preaching planting season, the de-
parlment wishes to reiterate these
warnings for the benefit of the en-
tire cotton belt. The producers Of
cotton, for their own welfare, should
heed this advice and should exer-
else judicious care in the selection

Of planting seed.

OF planting seed.
The following reasons are given
for warning cotton growers against
planting any variety that usually
produces a staple Of less than sew
en-eights inch in length:
First-Cotton Of less than seven
Fights inch staple is ofapproximate-
ly the same spinning value as the
bulk Of the cotton Of India. On
economic principles the the Ameri-
can product should be maintained
on higher level Of intrinsic worth
than that of India in order that the
American crop may not be forced
to complete in the markets Of the
world with the cotton Of India.
Second Cotton Of less than sew
en-eights inch staple is inferior to
the average American quality, and
localities that produce such cotton
in appreciable quantities soon es-
tablish regulations for an inferior
product. The price Of all cotton in
such markets will suffer on account
Of the poor reputation Of the mar
ket.

quest that Mexican troops be allow

able brute and his destruction Is
very much to be desired, Carranza

little higher grade than Villa hap
pens to be.
What the outcome is going to be

the matters of this call. We may
concede for the time being that
these gentlemen are actuated alone
by a patriotic desire to see equal
and exact justice done (according
to their unselfsh and unbiased
minds) and that they feel it incum-
bent upon them to manifest an in
terest. in all public affairs because
Of the self-imposed task they seem
to have assumed Of shaping the
principles and policies and dictat-
ing the personnel Of national, state,
county and city governments.
However, 1t is my opinion that
the Legislature can and will be glad
to dispense with the valuable servi-
ces Of these gentlemen, or their rep
resentatives, in the matters to be
considered by them under this call,
and the matter would not be here
referred to but for the fact the pow
ers and dutieg Of the General AS
sembly, extraordinary session, are
limited and circumscribed and insor-
der that the General Assembly may
If necessary, be clothed with power
to pass laws, resolutions and rules
and to appoint such committees as
may be necessary to investigate, try
and punish any voluntary, unwar-
ranted or Illegal effort upon the part
Of any person or persons either for
or against an accused, or to in any
way seek to interfere with the de-
liberations Of the Legislature, or the
Senate, in dealing with the matters
embraced within this call, such au-
thority is hereby given.
i think | mistake not the senti-
mentof a general public when | say
that the time for outside and un-
warranted interference, ar attempt
ed interference, with lawmakers and
law enforcers shall cease in Tonnes
see.

value. The seller commonly looks
upon such discrimination as q pen.
atty, while the buyer considers that
he is paying the full value for an
inferior commodity.
Fourth--Under the common prac-
tice Of the cotton trade, the price of
spot cotton is governed largely by
future quotations. In order that
future quotations might more ac-
curately reflect the value Of spot
cotton. Congress, in the United
States cotton futures act, provided
a form Of contract, exempt from
the tax imposed by the act, on
which cotton of extremely low
grade, or which is less than seven
Fights inch in length Of staple is not
deliverable This action by Con-
gress was intended primarily for
the benefit Of producers. One Of its
results was the adoption by the
New York and New Orleans ex-
charges Of the exeElpted form Of fu-
ture contract, so that cotton Of less
than seven-eights inch in length OF
staple cannot be delivered thereon.
This legislation in no way affects
any sale Of spot cotton.
Fifth-As the variety Of seed
planted is the primary factor in de-
termining length OF staple, and as
there are early prolific varietie
which produce staple Of at least
an inch in length. no farmer or
community is justified in plantine
an inferior variety, or in expecting
the full market price for a G,based
article Of commerce.

BUYERS DISCRIMINATE.

Third Competent cotton buyers
discriminate against extremely
short staple whenever such cotton
is discovered. They should be
equally careful to discriminate in
favor Of cotton of good staple, The
farmer who produces inferior cot
ton is likely to find that his product
brings price materially lower than
quotations would indicate as Its true

clothing instead of making your
farm furnish your living to you, you
are never going to get anywhere,
and the most Of the time you'll be
in debt.
Right at this time, especially, |
want to caution you and caution
you against an all-crop this year.
AS sure as you continue to devote
your attention wholly to cotton this
year you are going to come out at
the little end of the horn. There Is
no lodging it. You all remember
what happened in 1914 when the
European war began. You remem-
Der how it frightened you, how 1t
left you with scant rations because
you failed to make your food at
home and had nothing but low
priced cotton--not enough to pay
your debts.
We'll, if you don't look out the
same thing is going to happen
again. A big cotton crop this year
is going to spell the same sort Of
disaster for you that you experience
ed in 1914, if not worse. The price
is down now and 1t is staying down.
Just you plant a big crop and you'll
see it tumble lower still. Some mil
lions of bales Of last years crop are
still being held because of present
prices. Suppose you add another
big crop to this stock on hand you
know very we'll what would happen,
and if you don't look out it will hap
hen.
After the disaster Of 1914 farm
ers Of the south planted more for
age and food crops than ever be-
fore, and they began to raise cows
and pigs. Those who were fortu-
nate enough to do that know how
well they profted by it; know that
even with the better price for cot
ton, they would have had a hard
time if they hadn't done it.
The European war is not over;
there is no telling when it will end.
1t may 90 on for several years. Ger
tainly it will not end this year, and
probably not next. The German,
Austrian and Russian markets are
closed tight against your cotton; the
worlds consumption is reduced by
several million bales. How can you
hope for higher prices if you make
a big cropS It is out Of the ques-
ton.
But if you will 90 ahead and
make your own living at home,
make some food products to SELL
for the world has got to eat--you
will come out all right no matter
what happens to cotton. Not only
that. but with the shorter crop you
will Get your own price for it, or at
least come nearer 1t than you ever
done before.
Every one Of those $4,000 farms,
those $4,000 farms, those 10000
farms, in Texas, should not only
have cows and pigs and poultry,
but they should grow their own
grain and forage and garden truck
instead Of paying two prices for it
in cheap cotton. This applies equal
ly to conditions in every cotton
state in the south, to every farmer
who grows cotton at all.
This is absolutely the only road
to farm independence, to your indie
pendence You had better take it
now. If you disregard this injunc-
ton and plant cotton, cotton, cot
ton, until there is nothing else on
your place, set it down right now
that when harvest time comes you
are going to be fearing the same
long face you wore in the fall 1904.
1t will be as bad, if not worse.
If | knew how to make the pic
ture any gloomier, ! would do it,
and then not depart in the smallest
degree from the truth.
You can avoid it by cutting

THE SCRATCH PAD
By THOMAS EWING DABNEYsz

We wish it plainly understood that
in referring to the pool room buns,
we are not rejecting IN any manner
on the ancient and honorable game,
to which in fact we are rather par
tial; nor to the players who seek a
legitimate recreation; but only to
those chair-warmers with cigarettes
dropping from the corner of their
mouths, whose sole occupation is to
take up space in a legitimate business
enterprise which they do not benefit,
and to ogle passing ladies and look
the thoughts they are prohibited by
police regulations from expressing.
Taft says he will speak from the
same platform with Teddy, but re-
membering the political knife the
Colonel slipped into him a few years
ago, the stout gentleman from Ohio
would do well to have him in front
where he can keep an eye on him.
The paragrapher of the Tampa
Tribune is much concerned over the
June brides that failed -to-be; but
don't worry; the dear girls can take
care of themselves, and what might
at first be thought defeat may prove
to be one of these strategic retire
ments we read so much about.
The correspondent of the New York
World who advocates the spanking Of
wives is very careful not to give his
name. ..,..
With his cargo afre and his ship
lighting a 104-n1ile hurricane the cap
tain OF the Oxonian certainly had his
share of tough luck, and the only
thing that could have made him feel
any worse is a German submarine.
If the British could only prevail on
Hughes and Carranza to go to sea and
trail their whiskers overheard, thew
would catch every German submarine
at large.
Maybe The Crown Prince would
have gotten mad enough to capture
Verdun if that kullud girl had ticklcd
him on the chin.
The men were so busy chasing their
hats during the recent nigh winds that
they didn't have time to watch the
short skirts.
That grinding noise is Hughes try
ing to think how the storm would
have been avoided if the Republicans
had been in.

WELCOME TO WooDMEN.

Again and again is it demonstrated that
the outside world has only to know us to
want to know Us even better, and that
once visitors to Pensacola get the trad1-
tional sand in the shoe, their return is only
a matter of time.
During the past few years a number OF
important conventions have met IN Pensa-
cola and have demonstrated their belief IN
the city and appreciation of its hospitality
by returning second, and in the case OF
one association, fourth time, to meet in
this city.
Last year the great organization of the
Woodmen of the World met at Palmetto
Beach, nine hundred strong. In August
they will return to the city, meeting in
convention which will number about fifteen
hundred This is one of the most inhuen-
country, and Pensacola will extend to it a
special welcome, as it numbers in its ranks
many residents of the city.
The Woodmen of the World enjoyed
their visit last summer They not only
found the welcome cordial, but they found
the pleasures of the beach unusual and
diverting, and it is, perhaps, the lure of
Pensacola's water as well as the necrom-
ancy of Pensacola sand which is bringing
them back to the city again.
But whatever it is, whether the charm of
the wonderful water. or the magic Of old
traditions, which brings them, when they
arrive they will find awaiting them the
same cordial welcome that was theirs last
summer, and Pensacola will benefit by the
presence of this splendid body of men from
all parts of the country, who will convene
in August at one of the prettiest resort
beaches in the world-Palmetto Beach
which will, some day, be one of the features
of Pensacola, the Summer Resort City OF
the South

JUMBO
BADLY WRECKED

A mass Of wreckage in the slip in
the rear of the pilots office was Sat-
urday identified as the remains of the
piledriver Jumbo, the property of the
Saunders Fish Company, and which
had been used for many years about
the property of the firm named at the
foot of Palafox street This apparatus
had been stationed aboard a lighter,
and consisted of donkey engine, boiler
and upright hoist and hammer. All
this is almost hidden in the slip, the
heavy machinery sinking almost out
of sight in the soft mud, while the
upright lies shattered in the slip.

Loss coMPARATIvELY SMALL.

In spite OF the loss to the fishing interests
and the shipping, the storm damage was
small as compared to that of 1906. The
loss at that time was estimated at four
million dollars, and there were twenty-one
deaths from the great September hurri-
cane, against loss of several hundred
thousands, and no loss of life from the hur-
ricane of Wednesday
While the shipping has suffered, the loss
has not been nearly as great as one would
have expected from such high Winds and
the residence section of the city is injured
, to very little extent. Most of the damage
is such as may be soon repaired, with
small outlay, few old roofs having been
blown away, chimneys and fences blown
down, and other minor damages.
One of the greatest losses suffered is the
ruprooting of number of the city's beau
tiful shade trees, but these were, in most
instances, China trees and poplars, both of
which grow rapidly, and may be replaced
in a few years
Already those who have met with dis
aster are working to retrieve the loss suf
fered, and to build better and more per-
manently for the future.
There is gratitude in the hearts of Pen
sacolians today because Of the compare
lively small loss suffered And far above
and beyond this, is the sense Of thankful
ness that the damage has been confined to
property loss, and that in the city and its
outskirts not one death has been reported
caused by the hurricane
Time and again Pensacola has beer
