NEWSPAPERS LOSE
BY WARS HE SHOWS

Now Senator Norris has It. mean
that curious disease which makes him
see conspiracies. writes Serard In the
Public Ledger.
Newspapers, he declares. have en-
listed in a propaganda to manufacture
sentiment for war. And yet when as Il
correspondent used to see the senator
in Washinston-he WAS then a member
of the house--he seemed like sane
and wholesome fellow.
But l repeat. This notion that news
papers want war soe that they can
print exciting news is a disease. AS
well accuse men of setting their homes
ablaze in order to see the fire engines
work.
Here is the cold fact: War costs the
newspapers more in real cash than 1t
costs other important institutions.
War news costs every live news
paper great deal more money than
it can possibly get back from the sale
of papers or in advertising.
a few years ago some valuable testi-
mony on this very subject was brought
out in connection with Joseph Pulit :
izer's estate.
1t was Shown that one of his news
papers had been earning a profit of
about 100000 year before the
Spanish American war. SO great weIe
the expenses of that war that in 1898
the profits were actually reduced to
zero.
You can judge from that how badly
Mr.. Pulitzer wanted a war And other
papers suffered in like proportion.
The editor of the London Post told
me his paper had 20 correspondents in
the IBoer war. Gable tolis at that time
were $l.20 a word from Cape Town to
London.
Perhaps Senator Norris also knew
of man who deliberately had him
self convicted Of murder merely to at
tract q crowd to his own hanging.

than one-third of the corn crop of the
United States. and 1t has the record OF
= having. produced the most corn ever
raised on any one acre. That acre was
farped by a boy. and the product was
259 bushels. In 1912 Mississippi
farmer took more than 5000 bushels OF
corn from a Seventy-acre field. his ay-
erage being in excess of 120 bushels per
acre.
And now as to the meat! When the
south has developed it's livestock posi-
bilities. Uncle Sam will not have to go
to Australia for his mutton. nor to Ar
gentina and Uruguay for his beef. In
1915 the livestock of the south was
worth more than billion dollars. and
with the present demands it will great
" increase. Recent experiments show
that beef can be produced in many of
these states at or cents a pound.
and that pork can be raised at cost of
less than cents pound. This is in
striking contrast TO the prices we are
paying for meat of all kinds.
1 might also mention how the south
is fast becoming the winter garden of
our biggest cities and towns. 1t is now
receiving more than 100000. 600 a year
from fruit and vegetables. and a vast
trucking industry has grown up along
the coastal plain all the way from
Chesapeake bay to the bottom of Flor
ida, and along the shores of the gulf as
far south as the Mexican border. They
are now shipping vegetables to all

You will always know this violet from
others because the leaves are heart
shaped, round -toothed, and either con-
cave or curled. and because they grow
on long stems that rise from the base
of the plant. whereas the Canadian
violet. also blue and very common in
our woods. has leaves that branch out

1t may not be generally known that
there are more than $50 wild species

botanists. and that they occur through

Some authorities believe that the pam
