GOING UP.

The cost of food is still going up. Ac-
cording to figures compiled by the Bureau
of Statistics, from reports furnished by
over seven hundred retailers in forty-four
of the principal industrial cities of the
United States, the combined price of 25 ar
ticles of food, from May Is to June Is,
1916 has jumped two per cent.
Thus during a period of five, years, has
the cost of keeping alive shot up fourteen
per cent! The main rise has been during
the past year, when from June, 1915 to
June, 1916, the rise totaled eleven per
per cent.
The most sensational rise was in Irish
potatoes, which advanced IS per cent.
Beans went up q per cent and onions 35
per cent Meats advanced from per cent
for bacon to Is per cent for hens
Let us not estimate the future advances
lest forecast, at the present rate, drive
us to distraction at the thought of a %
per cent boost to the meal ticket. Some
thing may happen between now and next
year we may die or we may inherit money
or we may cut our meals to suit our purse
and eat only twice a day, like the ancient
Persians. Doctors say that we eat too
much anyway. Best of all we may live
more at home Florida may produce the
potatoes, beans, canned tomatoes. meats.
etc, etc, ETC., which are now imported and
on which we are paying freight and com
mission charges.

State Press Comment
Fist Sponge Farm

Around the shores of an island off
the west coast of Florida has been
established the first sponge farm in
existence, it is believed, says the
San Francisco Argonaut. 1t is esti-
mated that 100000 s1onges are thus
being cultivated. The method is sim
pie. Concrete discs, about ten inches
in diameter, are sunk, the bits of
sponge being first attached by small
piece of aluminium wire; this is to
hold them in position as a safeguard
against being washed away. One
disc is planted or dropped for each
square yard. Fully so per cent of the
sponges planted mature. The water
possesses sufficient nourishment for
| them and, unlike other farming
sponges require no cultivation during
| their growth. They may be left alone
after planting until they are large
enough to gather.-Tarpon Springs

THE SCRATCH PAD.
BY THOMAS EWING DABNRY

''The last Bayview of summer"
Fulfilling expectations, the Bremen
did not arrive.
In this age of wonders, let US not
forget the American concrete ship.
Rest, rest perturbed spirit, is the
best advice we could give Cats, for he
hasn't the ghost of a chance.
Florida will export corn this year,
but those farmers would make great
deal more by feeding it to hogs.
Having kissed our whilom straw
hat goodbye, we are now applying
mental telepathy to an overcoat.
That posse whose boat was sunk by
the rifle fire of bank robbing gang,
would do well to get a submarine.
A store that advertises in The Jour
nal is sure to be the scene of more
determined counter assault than Yer
dun.
| One reason why money is scarce in
Florida is that we send 100000 a
year out of the state to buy stock
feed.
We knew it was coming. Those
armored cars, says Germany, aren't
war-they are butchery. But what
about the zeppelins dropping bombs
on unfortified places? What about
torpedoing the Lusitania-et-al?
'It is not question of what Hughes
would have done, but of what he's
going to do" says the Philadelphia
Ledger, and we agree entirely that
the outlook is little dubious for a
man who has given up one job and
will lose out in the race for the other.
Hughes being so inconsolably OPP
posed to the Adamson Bill, we assume
that the first thing he would do, f
elected president, would be to cancel
the eight-hour day just established
in our Panama Canal zone by execu-
tive order.
Ford has not given up his plans for
hating the world war, says a news
article. The Hon. Hank, following the
famous pussyfoot methods of the I'M
diluted one, will probably wait until
the end of the war to announce what
those plans are.
"a news item in western exchange
says that since Hughes tour of the
West the farmers have all gone to
raising bearded wheat. Which is re-
specially referred to the Photographer
of The Pensacola Journal" says the
DeFuniak Breeze. True, true, but you
will notice that the wheat crop is
awfully short this year.

Don't Turn Back

Certain Santa Rosa county citizens
have persuaded the board of county
commissioners of that county not to
construct cattle dipping watts at this
time and in doing so they have fol-
lowed in the wake of certain Georgia
counties. So far as we know, this is
the only county in Florida that has
decided upon such procedure. 1t is a
backward step. They say the time is
not ripe. IF the time is not ripe now

gest drawbacks it ever had it never

mately mean that Florida will be pro

tainly Santa Rosa county doesn't want

might add that the probability is she
will get about one-third the wear
also, to say nothing of the burden of
upkeep which will increase largely as
the years go by. Asphalt was never
intended for heavy traffic, which Is
proved by the fact that in cities hay
ing it heavy traffic is kept off the
asphalt. For few years it will I'M
doubtedly serve to confirm the opinion
of the Telegram and others who favor
it, but we can't refrain from predict
ing that eventually Polk county will
regret its choice of this material.-Or-

Beer


A capture that would have been
considered god-send by many a per-
son in doughty Santa Rosa was made
by Sheriff J. H. Harvell Saturday
night. The sheriff had a premonition
that there was something doing down
at Bagdad, and about seven o'clock,
made a trip down to one of the drink
stands of that little berg and found
cask with fifty-fve bottles of beer
in it. In accord with his duty as de-
fined by the law, he took possession of
this and viii submit the matter to
Judge Campbell as to whether the par
ties having the same in their posses
sion had an unreasonable amount of il
for personal consumption as defined
by the law.-Milton Gazette.

Andalusia packing plant, the DeFuniak
Breeze deprecates building a packing plant
at the latter city. Says the Breeze:
at would not pay It is doubtful to if the
Andausia people will get very rich dividends
from that one, directly until the supply of hogs
IS such that it steadily with full crew."
1t is doubtful, however, if the Andalusla
boosters expected their plant to pay-at
least for good many years, when d1vers1h-
eaton will have brought out all possibilities
IF the county and developed stumpy acre
ages to Well-stocked farms.
The Andalusia Packing Company was,
indeed, formed to supply a cash crop to
take the place of cotton, which has gone to
iein the SHOWS of yesteryear.
With low freight rate to Andalusia,
and the Jacksonville competition nearer by,
the conditions are not the same in De-
Iuniak as they are in places less con-
veniently situate-Pensacola, for instance,
where packing plant is needed to take
care OF the home trade, consume the small
hogs, and give the farmer, unable to ship
in car lots, or to wait until his neighbors
make up a car load, convenient market
for his cash crop.
The Andalusia plant is paying eight
and while this is two or three cents less
than the quotations in Louisville, you must
remember that LOUISVILLE quotations are for
prime hogs, and not for the understood
ones, which bring considerably less; you
must also bear in mind the freight.
A man raising fine hogs will make more
money shipping to Louisville than hauling
his product to home plant; but good
many years will have to pass before the
hogs throughout the country can be
graded up to the standard that will bring
the highest prices in the open market, and
car lot shipments are a regularity.
While it is true that a number of our
leading communities are preparing to make
Joint car lot shipments of hogs to northern
markets this season, there'will be a number
OF farmers with one, two, a dozen hogs,
who for one reason or another, will be left
out theirs, then, the dreary lot of peddling
their product locally and being forced to
take what the dealers choose to give for
them.
That a packing plant has developed the
Moultrie region, is too we'll known for men
ton; there is nothing unusual, therefore
in the expectations of the Andalusia people
that Covngton county will soon be noted
as a stock growing district If DeFunial
is able to reap the advantages of home
plant without erecting one itself, that re
gion will also prosper, for, as the Breeze
says walton county has the land and cal
produce the crops to feed and fatten (hogs
on"
Hogs don't require the expensive cult
walton of crops, they can be inoculatec
against cholera, but no amount of serum
injection will make cotton immune to tn,
weevil and the market is more certain TIL
Breeze is perfectly right, therefore, in say
ing that prosperity follows livestock pro
duction in any section.
1t is to hasten this prosperity here ant
in other regions similarly situate that WI
urge the establishment of the Hom
packing plant.

that the boys on the border are surely

REAL AUTOMOBILE COMFORT

The real comfort test in any touring
car can be determined better with the
driver alone occupying the car than
when the automobile is carrying its
regular allotment of passengers, as
every motor car enthusiast knows. In
this day of efficient springs and ad-
vanced body construction. there are
many makes of cars which claim the
acme of comfort for five or seven pas
sengers, but the WillysOverland
| Company, of Toledo, Ohio, goes them
one better by turning out low priced
five passenger car with comfort guar
anteed for one or five passengers on
| any ordinary automobile road. This
car is the New Series Model rs B. Ov-
erland.
"Although every possible effort was
! made to give the New Series Model
! rs B. Overland the utmost riding com
! fort, our attention was first attracted
! to it's extraordinary features in that
respect by letters which came in from
enthusiastic rs B. owners" said John
! N. WHY'S, head of the Willys-Over
| land Company. "One owner informed
us that although 80 per cent of his
riding was done with only himself in
| the car. lie ildu lcNcI III a luOIt
comfortable machine. 1t took the
country roads, he said, like big power
| full expensive cars, and, unlike most
small cars, excessive speed did not in
the least affect its easy riding quail
| ties.
"This unusual situation is due sim
ply to the kind of equipment used on
the car. Cantilever springs, for in
stance, are used on the New Series
Model IS B. and any man well-versed
in the automobile business will tell
you that no spring has ever been made
which will give more easy riding IA
cilities than the cantilever product.
To give added riding comfort, there
are four inch tires. which equipment
in itself is something heretofore I'M
heard of in cars of that class. Fur
thermore. the body is so staunch and
we'll balanced in construction that the
weight is evenly and correctly distrib-
uted. This accounts for the fact that
on rough and uneven roads the New
Series Model rs B will travel along
without that Earring and swerving so
common in other makes of light cars.
"The famous 81 1-2 horsepower Ov-
erland motor which the car carries, is
also responsible for it's overriding
features. The fact that it accom-
plishes 81 IL horsepower at only 1850
revolutions in minute gives the car
the greatest possible motor power
with the smallest amount Of wear on
the motor itself. Almost instantane-
ously, the motor will take the car
from 2 1-2 miles an hour to So miles
an hour, on high, with all the smooth
ness of action 50 alluring in costly
cars of both foreign and domestic
manufacture.
with a powerful motor working
perfectly, cantilever springs, four inch
tires, sturdy body and deep upholster-
ing, as we'll as lots of leg and arm
room for driver and passenger, we be-
lieve this new product of the WHY'S
Overland company is the last word in
comfortable low-priced cars. And, as
I have intimated before, perhaps its
chief ground for fame is that it fur
nishes easy and comfortable riding for
one person as we'll as for five"
