HATS OFF TO OUINCYt

The little capital of Gadsden county
proves that it does not intend long to be
classed as little. 1t took a big forward
step this week when it voted $4,000 for
street paving and obligated owners of
property abuttng the improvements to pay
$4,000 more for a system of paved streets
that promises to do more for the develop
ment of Quincy and Gadsden county than
any other public Improvement could.
The fact that the election carried two
to one is splendid evidence of the Quincy
spirit and, as the Gadsden County Times
says. 1t shows that Quincy has arrived"

|CHII OREN OF HOME BIKE CLUB ENJOYS
Will SRI c|RCus VERY GOOD MEETING

Appeals for funds with which to
send the children of the Pearl Eagan
Home to the circus next Wednesday,
met with a ready response among
Pensacolians who are ever READY TO
help the home.
Several contributions, totalling S4.25
were received yesterday, but more is
needed, if all of the children are to
enjoy the wonders of the sawdust
ring.
For some to go, and the others to
remain at the home, pining their little
hearts away in envy of the more for
tunate ones, would indeed be sight
that any kind-hearted Pensacolians
would help to prevent, by so small
contribution.
Fifty cents or a dollar insure a
royal time for some tot, it will be like
ray of brilliant sunlight in dark
room. Circuses come seldom, ans
childhood is short, the time to act is
now. Won't you help?

al allah Rookh" Centenary.

Is the war holding back any poem
comparable with "Lallah ROokh," the
publication of which was delayed by
the Waterloo campaign, and took place
just a century ago?
Perhaps few read the famous ORR
entail romance nowadays. but MOOre's
reputation when he wrote ii was such
that he was able to sell 1t when he
had scarce put pen to paper. Murray
offered 1000 guineas for it, but the
poets friends thought this too little,
and approached LOngman, stipulating
that the price should be mot less than
the largest amount ever paid for a
poem" THAT" said LOngman, "was
the $4,000 paid for 'ROkeby," and on
that basis a bargain was struck, the
publishers only stipulation being that
MOOre'S poem should be equal to
SCOTS In length. Even so, LOngman
had the best of the bargain. Seven
large editions were sold within n year,
and a quarter of century later Long
mans still regarded Italian ROOkh" as

OIL TO BE KING IN FUTURE
Necessity for Petroleum Products
Shown in War as Well as in In
dustriaI and Domestic Life.

The European war is without a
doubt doing more To direct general at
ten,ion to the claims Of oil and its null
titudineSS products than any amount
Of advertising in normal times could
have accomplished, says writer In
the Petroleum Review.
The great clash of arms on the con-
tinent has from its commencement
shown that the necessity for the prod
ucts of petroleum in up-to-date war
fare Is no less than I'm either the indus
trial circles or in domestic life. We
are today as much dependent upon the
refined products Of crude oil as we are
upon wheat and other necessities Of
life, and as time goes on, and the uses
which are constantly being found for
petroleum multiply. our dependency
upon oil becomes the greater.
II Is no surprise. therefore, to find
that not only are petroleum products
generally commanding greater atten-
ton than they ever before did, but
that particularly healthy atmosphere
permeates those enterprises which
have laid themselves out-and sue
ceSsfully SOTO engage In the produc-
tiOn the refining, the transport or the
distribution of petroleum products.
There Is. in short, no mistaking the
fact that in the future oil will be king.

CamphOr groves may some day be
as familiar to us as peach orchards
and orange groves. Agents of the de-
partment of agriculture have found
that when planted in hedges Is feet
apart camphor trees will yield each
year about eight tons Of trimmings to
the acre, from which about 200 pounds
Of gum camphor can be distilled. At
present prices that means a profit Of
about S160 an acre. The camphOr
trees are harder than many of our

treating infected seed with formalde- hyde.
 CD Make the soil fertile with manure or fertilizers applied ju- diciously where needed.
 (S) Reduce winter killing by fol- lowing the above suggestions. Tremendous Effort and Cooperation
 Necessary.
 The accomplishment of this great increase of wheat and rye acreage without disrupting correct farming practice will call for tremendous ef- fort on the part of farmers. How ever. the United States Department of Agriculture, the State colleges of Agriculture, and other state and To- cal agencies are planning to aid in every way possible.
New Britain herald., 1917-08-09

certain parts of the country, 1t is necessary to consider wheat and rye together. This Is because rye can be planted safely on many fields with less risk than wheat. Further, rye can be used as g. substitute for wheat as a bread grain by those who are accus timed to it. Rye succeeds on poorer soils and with less fertilizer and in colder climates than wheat, and for these reasons should be planted in preference to wheat where 1t has been proved safer crop. The farmer who, because of an attractive guaranteed price for wheat, may be tempted to plant wheat rather than rye in a To- cality where rye is the more. certain crop takes a speculative risk of loss through winter killing and destructive wheat diseases which Is unwarranted. While no guaranteed price for rye has been authorized by congress, there Is every reason to expect that the price of rye the next year will bear a satis- factory relation to that of wheat and, therefore. Justify the planting of rye where the present experience with 1t indicates its superiority.
 Basis of Increased Rye Acreage.
 Fall-sow rye should supplement spring wheat to a considerable ex- tent in the spring wheat belt An enlarged acreage of rye in addition to the usual spring wheat sowings will help to guarantee a plentiful supply Of bread grains next year. A disaster such as that which was caused by the combined effect of rust in the spring wheat belt in 1916, and win ter killing in the winter-wheat belt last winter Is thereby at least partially insured against. It is recommended therefore that the acreage of rye be increased this year in the spring. wheat sections over that sown in the fall of 1916 about 100000 acres in North Dakota. 75,00O acres in Min nesota. S9,000 acres in Wisconsin and 5000 acres in South Dakota.
 Rye should be sown more generally on the sandy lands along the Lakes in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and New York and in New Jersey, so an increase of 76,000 acres is recom-, mended for Michigan, 72.000 for In- diana and 42.oo0 for New Jersey. Rye also should take the place of many of the old pasture and hay lands of New York, Pennsylvania and the New England states Rye is safer crop than winter wheat for such lands. Pennsylvania has much land more suitable for rye than for wheat, so an increase of 10000 acres
