CITY AND COUNTRY.

To the question, What is Pensacola
doing for the farmers?" the local Chamber
of Commerce has just made an answer that
should convince the very last doubter how
absolutely our merchants and business men
realize the Importance of agricultural de-
velopment, in guaranteeing to meet the pro
rata appropriation of the county comnns-
sioners towards the farm demonstration
agents salary Of course a final appeal to
the county board will be made, and there IS
still chance of the appropriation being
made from the general fund, but the local
Chamber of Commerce was unwilling to
take any risk of Escambia county's losing
the governments appropriation, and voted
the necessary $500.
All praise to the men who have proved
themselves boosters worthy of Florida
But for them Escambia would lose the
demonstrators this coming year-a setback
of incalculable harm.
Without the shadow of doubt the county
board will assume the obligation next year
and relieve the city organization of the bur
den-a burden, however, which it is proud
to bear.

THREATENED PAPER FAMINE.

With the factories in Europe shut down,
and South America and Europe taking
every pound of paper. that the United
States will sell, we are threatened with a
literal paper famine
1t is not so much the high cost,
although paper has advanced from 100 to
800 per cent, and has caused even the
biggest hotels of New York to cut down on
the size of the menu cards and dole out
stationery sheet at a time, but unless
there is retrenchment there will come a
time-and it is not very far in the future
when there will be no newsprint whatever
in the country.
To meet this situation, newspapers all
over the country are cutting down in cize,
limiting exchange lists and throwing out
all but cash-in-advance subscriptions
At the urgent request of the American
Newspaper Publishers Association, The
Journal has joined the movement to over
come situation fraught with grave danger
to publications all over the United States.
Beginning yesterday, The Journal has
cut its exchange list, abolished all free
copies, and curtailed returns of unsold
copies from newsdealers and newsboys.
Those who are affected will please bear in
mind that this policy is dictated by the
threatened exhaustion of the paper supply,
which leaves no other alternative

for submission to whatever legal de-
cree may be made on the contest, has
even intimated that it would bolt the
ticket If the final adjudication should
show that Mr.. Cats was the legal
nominee of the party. Hence, they
cannot be accused of boiling.
On the other hand, Mr.. Cats has
announced that should the decision be
against him, he will be a candidate
anyway, and he is even now going
over the state in interest of his can
didacy for the office of governor, the
right to run for which, as the dem
ocratic candidate has not yet been de-
MED him. ........
Mr.. Knott has repeatedly said that
if the recount ordered by the supreme
court should show that he did not re-
ceive the nomination, he will not only
not bolt the ticket, but will vote for
the successful candidate. Mr.. Cats
has repeatedly avowed his determine
ton to oppose the legal nominee in
case he is not the man declared to
be the nominee, and to run for the Of
flee in spite of his primary pledges.
Mr.. Knott is not and does not pro-
pose to be a boiler, nor Go any Of
those who are supporting his right to
have a recount Of the votes. Mr..
Cats has already bolted, and is fol-
lowed by many who declare that they

pledges unless their candidate shall

ADD 100 PER CENT.


You can say one thing for the av-
erage baker of bread, who has the
public more or less at his mercy. He's
no piker. He does not do his think
ing in pacayunish terms. When he
contemplates advance because of the
higher price Of flour, he is not influ-
enced by the commonplace things like
percentages. If flour advances Is to
rs per cent, it does not occur to him
that he can save himself from disas-
ter by adding a cent or two cents
to the standard loaf Of bread. Not at
all. The price Of bread must be
doubled. Only 100 per cent can salts
fly his ambitious soul. Of course he
might be persuaded to concede IL
conered that the labor and time in
volved in producing loaf of bread
from flour at even a thousand dol
lars a barrel would be no greater
than the labor and time involved in
producing a loaf, if flour were selling
on the market for thirty cents a car
load, but he has a principle at stake.
1t is one Of the mysteries Of pres
ent day economy that a slight adj
vance in wholesale price Of any COM
modify is looked upon as a justifica-
ton for adding a sum out of all pro-
portion to such advance to the retail
price. Butter advances half a cent
on the Elgin market, and in response
it goes up five or six cents in the
corner grocery; the beef trust So
called, adds quarter of a cent. and
the meat carver slips on dime, lust
to make sure he vii not lose out. A
great deal is said in criticism Of the
big business man and too little about
regulation Of the small dealer, whose
waking hours are devoted to obtain
ing a maximum Of profit from a
minimum of goods sold.-Tampa Tri-
bune.

THE CIGARETTE CASES

In determined effort to break up the
practice of selling cigarettes to minors,
warrants have been sworn out against
several score merchants charged with
violating this law. The cases will come up
today. The law in question is as follows
Be it enacted by the legislature of the State of
Florida. Section l. That it shall hereafter be un-
lawful IN the State of Florida for any corporation
company, firm person to SELL barter furnish or
give away directly or indirectly to any minor. anv
cigarette, cigarette wrapper any substitute for
either; or to procure for, to persuade, advise,
counsel, compel any child under said age to
smoke any cigarette-Act approved May o. 1907
The next section goes on to prescribe the
penalty, which ranges from SO to S1OO
with imprisonment in case Of repeated
ofense
The law is clear. No firm or individual
shall sell or give, directly or indirectly,
cigarettes to minor This would seem to
embrace not only mercantile establish
ment, but the child's parents as well.
The object of the law is a good one.
Cigarettes are known to exert a harmful
effect, not only on children, but adults as
well. In fact the sale of cigarettes is pro
h1b1ted entirely in certain states.
1t is, indeed, the first law of nature this
cigarette law-the law of self preservation.
1t IS the duty of all citizens to help secure
its enforcement.

THE CATTLE TRIP.

That business men, naval stores men
men interested in land development and
farmers should be touring the cattle dis
tricts of the middle south and studying
conditions there, with view to adopting
them in West Florida, proves how unani-
nous is the belief that the future of Sun
shine Land lies in cattle.
AS stumps yield to titled fields, and as
the pine wilderness IS driven further and
further back by the ever advancing army
of colonists, truck will, of course, be raised
in increasing quantities to supply the local
demand but it is extremely doubtful if this
region will ever be a truck center Not
that our soil can't produce truck, which has
made a success on ground much less pro-
ductive than ours, but there is more money
in cattle
Cattle, unlike other crops, make the soil
richer every year Cattle restore abso-
lutely WORKOUT sells and make waste
places yield. Note tie abandoned farms
that have been re-created through the dairy
herd.
1t is estimated that in 100 acres of good
land, the fertility which is worth $4,000.
| will be removed in twenty years by a good
grain crop, but that eighteen cows will re-
store $4,000 of fertility to 100 acres in
twenty years.
Writing along these lines, State Demon
stration Agent McQuarrie, in thoughtful
article on Dairying Possibilities in Florida
in the Florida Farmer and Homeseeker,
says:
Where butter is made and sold the loss of soil
/
cow. When cream is sold the loss is Sill, where
cheese is sold it amounts to S434, and where milk
is sold, to $6.6S per per annum.
AS Mr. McQuarrie says in conclusion,
then, the eighteen dairy cows mentioned
would not only support the crops necessary
to feed themselves, but would build addi-
tional fields of twenty acres of corn and
forty acres of small grains when milk is
sold, twenty-four acres of corn and eighteen
acres of small grain when cheese is sold
thlrty-three acres of corn and twenty-three
of small grains when cream is Sold and
th1rty-hve acres of corn and twenty-four OF
small grains when butter is sold.
Whether or not our farmers will sell
milk or butter will be determined by 1oca1
questions of demand and market facilities
but the one outstanding fact is, that giver
a reasonably good herd, freedom from tick
and proper care, the cattle game is one in
which you cannot lose
