[DCHANGE DATE NARROW ESCAPE OF.
OF CLOSING L|EE PENSACOLA SMACK
SAVING STATION IN LATE HURRICANE

Only the foresight of Captain
Frank Cooney, aboard the fishing
smack Mineola of the Warren Fish
Company's fleet, was responsible for
that vessel running away and steer
ing clear of the hardest part of the
hurricane which swept the gulf on
August IS, last. At it was, the Min
cola went through about the hardest
weather her crew ever experienced,
but the sturdy smack, which, by the
way, was built at Milton, stood the
strain and came through unchanged,
The Mineola went on to the snap
per banks, however, and returned last
night, reporting a total catch of IT,
900 pounds of fish, of which 10000
pounds were snappers.
The weather had an ugly appear
ance, said Captain Cooney last night,
and there was every indication that
storm of serious proportions was
brewing. Studying the weather for
short while, and getting line on
the probable course of what was
soon to break, he steered clear to
some extent of the pretending storm.

At the evening performances, which

Della Sachman, John Frenkel, Johnny
Jones and Gerald Quina will hold the

local musicales, prominent amongst
which was the Knights of Columbus
Easter entertainment, has been added
to the list of artists, and her appear
ance will be a welcomed one.
Miss Irene Palnes will appear al
the afternoon performance but owing
to unforeseen contingencies which
have arisen, will be unable to partici
pate in the evening performances.

In an attempt to change the closing
of the life saving station during the
months of April and May, instead of
June and July, as heretofore, Secre-
tary James F. Phillips, of the cham
Der of commerce, has written the
following letter to Senator Duncan
U. Fletcher:
"My Dear Senator:
"On July 9Th, 1916, the British
steamship 'Oxonian' was afire off
Pensacola bar in heavy weather She
called repeatedly for assistance, but
no assistance could reach her until
a message was brought to the city
and tugs were sent out. This occur
renee brought to light the fact that
the coast guard (life-saving) station
on Santa Rosa Island, is closed dur
ing the months of June and July.
at was our understanding that il
is the custom to keep these stations
open during only ten months of the
year. Experience must have shown
that ten months service is sufficient
to meet all demands, but in our case
the months of June and July are re-
garded as the hurricane season anG
this station should be open during
those months. If it is necessary tc
close it for two months during the
year, it should be closed during
April and May.
awe will therefore appreciate i
very much if you will take it W
with the proper department and en-
deavor to have such orders promul
gated as will result in this station
being open during the months of JUNE
and July. AS it happened no serious
results followed the Oxonian incident
but the result might have been Sc
rious had it not been for the promp
s{ion of local people.
EThanking you in advance fol
your assistance, beg to remain
"Yours very truly,

Old Looks I?
(BY DIR. V. NJ. PIERCE.)

Persons suffering from too much
uric acid in their system frequently
look older then they should. They
age faster and the appearance of
gray hair or baldhead in early years
is, indeed, often a sign of uric acid.
The face appears lean and haggard,
lines and wrinkles appearing in
young men or women.
The best way to combat this prema-
ture age and the obstruction to the
arteries and faulty circulation is of
the simplest: Drink plenty and cop
iously of pure water between meals.
This VIII not make you fat, as it is
only the water taken with the meals
that fattens. Obtain at any drug
store small package of anuric;
which is to be taken before meals, in
order to expel the uric acid from the
system. The painful effects of back
ache, lumbago, rheumatism, govt, due
to uric acid in the blood should quick
ly disappear after treatment with
anuric.-Adv.

WHEN YOU WAKE

OF HOT WATER

one look and feel clean,
sweet and refreshed.

This is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce OF waste material must be
carried out Of the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
1t quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts which
should suck only nourishment to sus-
tain the body.
A splendid health measure Is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a

which is a harmless way, to wash

WEATHER DURING
WEEK WAS DRY

The following synopis of weather
and crop conditions in Florida for the
week ending September 5, is issued by
the U. S. weather bureau station at
Jacksonville:
Jacksonville, Fla, Sept. 6.-The
weather during the week was gener-
ally drier than usual for the first
week of September, although showers
fell irregularly over all divisions. The
weekly totals exceeded an inch in por-
tons of Pasco, Holmes, Jackson and
Duval counties. The warm, sun
sunshiny weather was ideal for the
opening and picking of cotton. Pros
poets, however, have not improved,
and plants are still being damaged by
rust, shedding, and the boil weevil
On an average, the seasonal condition
of the crop is about two weeks earlier
than usual, although some commun-
tiles, where local factors enter, indi,
cate that the crop is later than the
average. The dry weather was un,
favorable for citrus fruits, the effect
being such as to "curl" leaves in some
groves. Rain is NEEDED also for al
truck, seed beds, strawberry plant.
and cane. Peanuts and sweet pota
toes continue promising. Much ha!

GRUBS EAT THE STRAWBERRY
Growers Who Have Trouble With
Them Should Be Careful In Sc.
Iecting Land for Plants.

Strawberry growers who are trou-
bled with white grub worms should be
careful in selecting the land upon
which the plants are to be set. Sod
land, according to j. r. Watson, en-
tomologist to the University of Florida
experiment station, IL apt to be in
tested with the worms. He advises
that the land be given to some crop
not injured by the grubs, for two or
three years after the sod Is turned
under. If the grower cannot wait that
long he might pasture pigs on the land
six months before planting. Pigs root
the grubs out and eat them.
If stable or barnyard manure is used
as fertilizer, it might be well to mix
with it from 200 to 400 pounds OF cy-
anamide to the acre. 1t Is possible
that cyanamide cannot be obtained.
About 100 pounds of sulphur or enough
to slightly color the n might be
added. The sulphur can be applied be-
tween the wi
Neither of these substances will kill
the grubs, but they act as repellents.
and will probably drive the grubs
away. The best method, however, is
to avoid sod lands.

RussIA,s GREATEST ENEMY.

The new premier of Russia, Boris
V. Sturmer, discussing with a news
paper correspondent conditions ere
ated by the war, said:
Russia awaits the future with con
6dence. Some monetary disturbance
may happen in our financial system,
but Russia Is rich in latent wealth.
During the whole war the deposits in
savings banks have been constant
ly growing in an extraordinary fash
ion. The prohibition Of alcoholic bev-
erages has produced marvellous re-
suits. Alcohol was indeed the scourge
that gnawed, decimated and impov-
erished our people. We destroyed this
enemy at the beginning of the war"
The Russian minister of finance,
when presenting his budget to the
council of the empire. reported:
"Despite war expenses amounting to
1900. 000,0 900 roubles, and thanks to
the abolition of the alcohol monopoly,
the financial strength of the country
is growing. The savings of the ma
ton since the beginning of the war

WILL GO TO WILSON
Democratic Platform Appeals to
Many Progressives.
Men of Really Independent Thought
Who Supported Roosevelt Last
Election Not Likely to Enter
the Republican Fold.

Charles L. Hughes and his political
advisers are naturally heartened at
Colonel Roosevelt's return to the Re-
publican party, but not all the Pro-
gressives who were ready to follow
their leader In another free lance move
ment will act upon his recommended
ton to support the Republican ticket.
OF the 4,119,509 votes cast for Roose-
welt in 1912 many-how many, is Il
question, of course-were avowed in
dependents. They had been Repub-
licans but had come to feel nearer
the Democratic party than the party
of their former allegiance. Thousands
of these independents will, it is be-
lieved, vote for Wilson and Marshall
rather than for Hughes and Fair
banks.
With a split in the Republican party
four years ago Wilson had a phe-
nomenal VICTORIAN electoral vote
of 435 as compared with eight for
a and SO for Roosevelt. Under
similar conditions something like the
result of the 1912 election would be
assured this year, but such political
triumphs may be expected only once
In a lifetime. But it need not be sur
prising to see a very large proportion
of the erstwhile Progressives casting
heir ballots for Wilson-enough to
bring several of the doubtful states
normally Republican into the Demo-
cratic column.
The election Is four months off.
Momentous things affecting the politi-
cal situation may happen between
now and the It'll of November. But
If the election were to take place to-
morrow Wilson would be an easy win
ner, despite the apparent fusion of Re
publicans and Progressives.

On this 5-acre plot, stable manure

left q profit of $1S7.5. With this fact
to be taken into consideration, that
his land Is improving in value each
year, both from the standpoint Of fer
tility and also from the fact that its
proximity to a growing city enhances
its value in that respect. But the idea
is this-intensify your operations, use
more manure, humus, fertilizer, fight
shy Of big, poor surfaces, from which
no profits attend. Mr.. CrulIs work

CARE FOR FATTENlNG M
Worth While to Remember That Feed
Lot Should Be Kept Free From
Other Animals.

Many people are of the opinion that
q sheep Is nothing but a ~scayenger
that needs little attention, but 1t will
be found that the more care and atten-
ton the lambs receive the greater the
profits will be. Among the items of
good care in f~attening lambs the fol-
lowing are worth remembering: The
feed lot should be kept free from other
animals. Lambs should be fed with
regularity. Quiet In the fed lot is
important. Feed troughs should be
kept as clean as possible. Salt is nec-
essary and should be before them at
all times in a separate trough. Lambs
do not need much shelter, but a good
windbreak Is necessary and an open
shed whereby their coats and feet al
be kept dry gives the best results.
