TME WORLD ON FIRE

President Wilson has aptly stated the case. The world is or fire, and the confagration in creases rather than diminishes
 With this fact staring US plain ly in the face, one is forced tc give serious consideration to the subject of national defense. TC do otherwise would be like leay- ing ones wife and babies at the mercy of a blood thirsty mob.
 The American people do not want war, but there may come 2 time when it will be impossible ;, fs's.aa' I-s-5 s14e 1sft4s9 52F5 5t3
 If such time comes we should be prepared to meet it, and to meet it in 9 manner that will ef fectively expel the invader from our shores and insure US against all future invasions.
 The president has hinted that there is danger of our being drawn into the present war.
 We hope not, but if it is true that such danger really exists, it is the duty of congress to take immediate steps to place the country in a reasonable state of defense, and to do it without a lot of political wire pulling and filibusterating.
 If this country is in danger of this is not the time for senators and congressman to play politics or build political fences. Action is what we need, and quick action and to a definite purpose.
 Congress has been fairly warn ed of the dangers ahead, and the man who trifies with the welfare of his country now will have a fearful bill to pay when the day day of reckoning comes.
 Give us more action and fewer words.

WATCH FOR GUNIMOSIS
IN CITRUS STOCK.

Idications are that gummosis will
be troublesome this year in citrus

ogist to the University Of Florida tx
pertinent Station, has noticed cases
at Weirsdale and East Lake, and has
had reports of outbreaks at Crescent
City and other places in south Flor.

The first appearance Of the disease
Is small crack in the bark with a
later emulation of gum which Oozes
small area of bark killed around the
exudations. Dead, brownish water
soaked tissue can be seen by scraping
away the bark. In the later stages
the areas gum copiously and the bark
fakes, forming a scaly or liberated
appearance. The disease is easily dis
tingulshed from foot rot because 1t is
confined to parts above ground, the
trunk and larger branches, and by the
scaly or liberated areas.
Control consists of cutting out the
affected tissues. This should be done
before they become large, so that the
disease may be prevented from spread
ing and a large wound avoided in the
pruning. Cut into the healthy wood
and leave no particle of diseased It's

tlseptic, such as bordeaux paste or
carbolineum. AS an extra precaution
paint the entire trunk with the ma
terial from the ground up to two or
three feet high. a.

WILL YOUR CHILD
HAVE AN EDUCATION

+ Many boys and girls are kept out
of college because they or their pa
rents have not the necessary funds.
Many take 1t for granted that an ed
ucation is unattainable. This is espe-
cially true of country folk. p. H..
Rolls, dean of the University Of Flor
ida College of Agriculture, states that
IL is possible for every farm boy or
girl to go to college. The corn and
canning clubs give this opportunity.
If club children start at the age Of
ten or twelve to accumulate fund
for schooling they can have enough to
take them through by the time they
are ready to go. Let them raise corn,
pigs, poultry or any other farm prod
uct. Induce them to deposit the pro
ceeds at interest. A small sum at com.
pound interest will, in a few years
furnish the means of a college educa-
ton. Parents Of moderate means can
help, not only by allowing children
to join the clubs, but by making small
deposits in their names. In this way
children who would have been una
bic to do 1t otherwise, will gain the
means of an education.
The common practice is to wait I'M
til the child has finished high school
The expenditure Of three or four hum
bred dollars a year is too great for
hundreds Of families, and as result
the child stays at home. BY system
attic saving over a period of years,
parents who could not afford $50 a
year for the purpose, can educate
their children. Furthermore, the plan
fosters the habit OF saving in the
child.
