the past, let a. Large per centage of crops
decay for war& of proper attention."
NObly have the farmers responded to the
productive propaganda; they have increased
paintings and the land is sagging beneath
the weight of the mighty crops. And we
like to think that the city men have re
spOnded. Finishing the Lillian bridge road
is one instance of this new spirit. One ship
ping agency has already begun here; it re-
ports scanty offerings but this was to be
eXpccted-a new enterprise takes time to
build up-and crops aren't produced in a
day. \ packing plant, too, is promised
\ warehouse fills great economic want,
both securing the local supply at stabilized
prices, and developing a shipping center
here-a boom to business all around.
Is the time ripe for such an enterprise ?
County Agent Fulford can best answer
that question. If it is, the duty Of our busi-
ness men is plain. Agriculture is king.
Agriculture is the basic industry the but
ton on fortunes cap, the sine qua non,
Agriculture must be developed and en-
couraged here, or Pensacola will perish
from off the face of the earth.

A GOOD ORDINANCE.

The proposed ordinance requiring dim
mers for automobile lights only in the busi-
ness districts of the city, is highly com
mcndabe
Without adding single danger to any
one, full-poWer search lights will enable
notorists to navigate certain outlying
streets with greater comfort to themselves
and security to their tires.
The proposed law is a logical amend
mcnt to the DINNER ordinance, with the
spirit OF which it is entirely in accord and
is not 4 substitute measure for enforcing
the law against throwing rubbish in the
streets. Broken bottles, boards with nails
in them, ETC., in certain streets, are men
acc to travel that should not be tolerated
for an instant. \ stricter enforcement Of
the garbage law mig help Matters If
the closed pail wa, insisted upon, there
wruld he less chance Of rubbish falling out
oi overloaded boxes, and everyone would

Then. too, we need law requiring pri-

RICHES OF THE EARTH.

What a change the last few years have
seen in the attitude of cities towards sur
rounding agriculture. Gone is the naughty
disdain-in its place a spirit of earnest CO.
operation. To give only one instance:
Citizens of Carroton. Ala, have organized
a $4,000 company to build Il warehouse
for farm products, to contain a power corn
shelter and velvet bean mill, and probably
potato curing house.
And in many other sections of the coun-
try business men are finding it good buSi-
ness to supply equipment necessary to
conserve and put into marketable shape the
large crops that have been produced this
year, and will be produced in increasing
quantities, if the right encouragement is
given.
Declaring that the potato crop OF Es-
Gambia county is larger than ever before,
w. S. Reeve, Of Cottage Hill, brings the
same problem home to us with the Ques-
ton: "\Nill the eNn.<rters and crop boosters
of four months ago now stand by the coIors
and help supply plans for curing and stor-
ing same Gthe potatoeSl . or will they, as in

The SCRATCH PAD
BY THOMAS EWING DABMEY.

To ambitious young men the avia-
ton service offers a chance to rise in
the world.
Drafting of doctors will cause
many Qndertakers to go out of busi-
ness.
There is more money in circulation
than ever before, and there has to be,
to pay for food, clothes, and the rest
The continued agitation of pacifsts
and propagandists is a manifestation
Of monkey-business as usual.
Joe, Marble has been appointed to
the police force, and no doubt will
make all the boys come to taw."
A baby cries because he wants the
moon, and a man laments that we
can't have no hot weather in the
winter time.
A red, white, and blue moon has
been observed in Meridian, Miss, and
the sheriff is trying to find out how
the stuff got into that dry place.
Paradoxical as it may seem, Kaiser
Bill, the autocrat, has done more to
establish democracy than any other
influence.
We are glad to report that Kaiser
Bills peace proposition has been un-

HAS CHICAGO Seeded FROM THE
UNION?

" hen one watches the gyratOns OF W.
H. Thompson, mayor of Chicago and the
later actions of the school board dominated
by his appointccs, the question naturally
arises whether Chicago has seeded from
the union and annexed itself secretly to
the realm of the Hohenzolerns.
There has been no more astonishing per
Torrance in any section of our country
Than the Chicago school boards vote on
certain interesting propositions the other
day.
It seems that in the eighth grade spelling
books used in the Chicago public schools
there is a little piece called The Kaiser in
the MalIng.' 1t tells how, when school
boy he refused to take advantage OF in
fOrmatioH about an examination that an
O0seQuiOus professor gave him, and then
winds up with this Prussian culOgv:
"One may say unhesitatinglv that a boy
capable Of such an action has the root of a
| fine character in him, possesses that chiv-
&irons sense of fair play which is the nearest
thing to religion, that may he looked for at
that age, hates meanneSs and favOritism
ard will wherever possible, expose them
| There is in him a fundamental bent toward
what is clean, manly and above board"
