"My formula is simple. Keep the
finest birds for breeding. Be sure
they are healthy. Have plenty of
good range. Feed them all they need.
Then let the mother turkeys do the
rest. Their Judgment is always sound,
but they are not apt to lose their WIS
completely if meddled with. Leaving
them alone was one of the hardest
lessons / had to learn.
Gone day last spring moved an old
hen over q rail fence because she
was in such deep grass. Next morn
ing at feeding time found the hen
and two little. ones in the nest, while
the other II were still on the outside
Of the fence, sleeping under a rail,
Two were dead and the rest of them
so chilled that half of them died.
Another old hen used TO cross the
creek two OF three times a day. Her
plan certainly eliminated the weak and
timid. She chose the highest bank ov.

harm was done, as they do not get wet
easily. But to hesitate meant that most
of them would get chilled and die.

Paws Tribute to Pensacola

Florida has at Pensacola, the Deep
Water City," the finest harbor on the
American coast south of Norfolk, with the
gulf naval station, two forts of historic
interest, and off in the Gulf deep water fish
ing, according to W. A. McRae, in re-
cent article entitled 'See Florida First"
The four essentials of life present in
such abundance in Florida: % Food
possible of being produced in every
month; (2) Water in rainfall, in sur
face rivers and lakes, and in quality
and quantity as in no other state; CD
Air, pure from the great reservoirs over
the seas on each side of us, coming TN
tainted with healing in its wings, and
"a sunshine-where in all of the re-
public Is there more vivifying, but
never prostrating warmth and glory of
light and color and sky?
The seas of Florida are a|constant
source of esthetic pleasure, not to
speak of their economic advantages.
The student and thinker standing by
the great deeds, forming large part
of the Florida boundaries, when the
sun tips the waves with glorious light,
marvels at the mystery of life as album
dant in the sea as on the land. And
when night draws its sable curtain
down and the noctiluca fills the waters
with phosphorence, the observer bows
in awe at the white sheen and exclaims
with the Psa1mist: Wonderful o
Lord, are Thy worksP'
The waters of Florida, both fresh
and salt, afording unlimited facilities
for fishing with choice of still water in
the lakes, of running waters in the
river, and more exciting sport at sea,
and the fish caught are worth while
and big enough to eat.
And with fishing can be had bathing,
boating and sailing.

The Soldiers Last Sacrifice For
His Home and Country

England is making an appeal for the dis
abled-to the women of England, particu-
larly, who realize what terrible thing
it is meant by the soldiers last sacrifice
short of death. Short of death, yet how
much worse, unless love and care and char
ity make life bearable for those who never
more may do anything for themselves"
We mean the totally disabled, those
who are stricken utterly, and have lost
all power of act and movement The
mind survives, but, in the prime of
their manhood, all that can make the
strength and glory of free and moving
life is destroyed. We shudder to think
OF It, and we ask what we can do.
There is but. one thing to do, and that
is to surround them to the end of their
days with all the help and tenderness
and consolation that can be devised.
With this object new home is to be
raised on the famous site of the old
Star and Carter on Richmond Hill.
1t is absolutely necessary to rebuild
if the hospital is to be sufficiently
cheerful and commodious. The pro-
vision of anything less than the bright
est wards and the most perfect ar
engagements would be a national dis
grace.
This is England's appeal, for the pitiful
heroes who have survived the battle, who
have given all that makes life sweet and
worth the living. No country can do
senough, no tribute is great enough, no
kcrown is bright enough for the men who
Ehave given more than life in the defense OF
their country. In this appeal the horror OF
war speaks with piteous note that brings
ito the mind in vivid flash of understand
Eng the real meaning of war.

HIGH PRAISE FOR
SENATOR BRYAN
(Orlando Reporter Starr

The Reporter-Star takes pleasure
in printing a letter from Senator
John w. Kern, of Indiana, laudatory
of Senator Nathan P. Bryan. It is
a distinct compliment to be compli-
mented by a man of Senator Kern's
standing. He is respected by all. We
have known republicans from his
home town-men who had known
him intimately for many years-to
speak of him in terms OF highest ap-
probation.
It is not to be inferred that a man
Of his type would be ready to write
of any man as he has written of
Senator Bryan if that man were not
in the best sense deserving. Senator
Kern says that Senator Bryan's opin-
ions are received with the greatest
respect on both sides of the senate
chamber, because his colleagues have
learned that he never rises to speak
on subject which he hasn't mas
tered. He has great influence in
shaping Legislation, and has taken a
leading part in the work of that body.
Senator Kern also testified to lie
rapid progress Bryans1nade in secur-
ing the Craftsmanship of one of the
most important committees after
having been member of the senate
only two years.
There can be no question that Sen
ator Bryan has made a mark for
himself and reflected honor upon his
state by his native ability and the
digniied and honorable manner in
which he has conducted himself in
Washington. Florida probably never
had such a strong team in the senate
as she has at this time. Both Bryan
and Fletcher have been honored
above many other members who have
been there longer than they. 1t must
be that they have been measured and
found to be superior men-that their
colleagues have discovered just what
their constituents have known for a
long while.

Professor of Wisconsin University
Comrnends Natural College Girls

Fashionable girls nowadays look as if
they used the X-ray when they pose before
their princess mirrors. And those who call
present fashions decadent are loud in their
condemnation of the girls.
But is this fair?
In a recent symposium of professors of
the University of Wisconsin, requested by
the girls of that institution, the subject be-
ing the young women themselves, Prof. E.
A. Ross said:
The young women OF the university
conduct themselves with freedom, ease
and naturalness which is never found
in girls who have learned to be on
their guard against the wiles and
malicious gossip of men.
Prof Ross has bravely put truth which
will account for many conspicuous abuses.

FLORIDA HIGHWAYS.



John w. Sibley, in the Manufacture
ers' Record, comments extensively on
the good roads movement in Florida.
Here are a few of the points about
Florida, taken from a lengthy arti-
Gle:
Some six years ago Duval county,
of which Jacksonville is the county
seat, began to agitate the question
of building dependable highways,
with the usual opposition from the
chronic pessimists that infest every
community.
The county commissioners put
down mile of sample highway in
various directions from the city of
Jacksonville.
This was followed by an election
for $1,O00,000 of bonds, which car
ried overwhelmingly and the present
splendid brick highways were con-
structed.
Other counties in Florida took no
tice and agitation began in various
sections of the state for bond issues
to lift the population out of sand and
mud.
In 1913 Hillsborough county, Of
which Tampa is the center, voted
81, 100000 of bonds and completed
last year its splendid system.
Following closely on the heels of
Hillsborough came Orange county,
with Orlando as the central point,
with a 100000 bond issue and the
construction of seventy-fve miles of
as fine brick highways as can be
found anywhere in America. Through
this county the Dixie Highway ex-
tends for forty-six miles, a solid rib
bon of brick, and Osceola county has
extended it three miles to the town of
Kissimrnee.
Almost coincident with Orange
county was the voting of $4,000 by
| st. Johns county and the connecting
with Duval county part of the Dixie
Highway, taking it through st. Au-
| gustine to the southern boundary, a
total distance of seventy miles.
Large bond issues were voted in
the latter part of 1915 for similar
highways by Putnam county, $780,,
600; Seminole, s250,000, and Volusia,
81 ,250,0 900, which will fill the gap be-
tween st. Johns county and Orange
county.
There is a campaign on at present
in Polk county for large bond issue
approximating 100000, part of
which will be used in connecting Kis-
simmee with Plant City via Lakeland,
thereby giving brick highway $50
miles long connecting the two great
cities of Jacksonville and Tampa.
Pinellas county, of which Clear
water and st. Petersburg are the
principal cities, has voted $750,O00
bonds and let contracts for a system
of brick highways.
DeSoto county is now building
| $500, 900 worth of brick highways,
and Manatee county is doing the
same.
Escambia county, Pensacola county
seat, has begun a campaign to vote
81 100000 of bonds in the fall.
On the East Coast Brevard and
Dsde counties have voted about ST.
900, 900 of bonds for shell roads to
be treated by oil asphalt penetration
methods.
| Leon county, in which Tallahassee
is located, viii shortly let contracts
for 5000 900 of highways.
Lake county is building 100000 Of
sand asphalt roads, and others are
agitating bond issues.

MONKEYS COST CITY OF
PENSACOLA $4,000 EACH

Editor Pensacola Journali
Sir: / noticed a statement in The
Journal of a few days ago to the
effect that Mayor A. Greenhut, for
the city, gave $4,000 for two mon
keys. Either The Journal or the par
ty from whom it is quoted is in error.
I sold the two monkeys to the city
for $40; being $50 each. They were
two trained, gentle animals, and cost
me more than what the city gave me
for them. I was offered moro than
what the city paid me for them after
I had bargained them to the city.
Yours truly,
