That Is What the Annual Seminar

A feast of information, of vital in
formation, based on the experiences
of last season and on the conditions
just ahead, is provided by the pro-
gram for the Eighth Annual Citrus
Seminar to be held at the University
Of Florida, Gainesville, October 9 to
II, inclusive. The freeze of last year
with the consequent reduced citrus
yield for this, and the war have
brought on a number of new prob
lens with which the grower must con-
tend. All these will be touched by
the program, making the sessions this
year of the greatest importance.
The meetings begin Tuesday morn
ing, October 8, at 9 o'clock, with a
series of discussions on fertilizers and
soil management. The topics are:
Potash in Florida Soils; The Use of
Potash as a Fertilizer, Under Pres
ent Conditions; The Use of Lime in

tlons as they affect the citrus grow
ers and truckers. This conference
will be participated in by representa-
t!ves of the railroads, the various
shipping organizations in the State.

sion.
Wednesday afternoon will be taken
up by talks by representative of the

Unity or Failuro

II is futile for the alliod governments to
i blind themselves or undertake to deceive
their people in tho face OF military facts.
The bitter truth is that this years campaign
Ing has not measured up to expectations. 1t
las not succeeded. 1t has not treasured the
world to the strength of the armies in
league against the central powers. This is
said with full realization of the tremendous
blows delivered by the British and French
on the western front and of the vast reserve
power which the allies maintain. The WAR
map tells dscouragng story. 1t shows
the Russians driven far back into their own
country, their armies disorganzed and their
resistance almost wholly nullified. 1t shows
Austro-German forces invading Northern
Italy, when thirty days ago the Italians were
making splendid offensive drive 1t shows
certain areas retaken in France by Haig and
Pctain and minor, though successful, allied
movement against the Turks in Palestine.
1t shows the Macedonian front unchanged,
but daily threatened with Teutonic thrust
against Sarrail's mixed divisions.
These facts do not arouse apprehension
perhaps, but they bespeak manifest weak
ness OH the part of the allied armies, not
withstanding their increased numbers; their
rc-en forcement by the Americans or their al
most unlimited muniton resources. 1t is
apparent at this distance that this weakness
proceeds from lack OF coordination, lack of
singleneSS or purpose, lack Of concentrated
effort. The British soldier Is as good a
fighter, man for man, the German. The
French soldier is better fighter than the
German. The American soldier has no SUI
perior in any army on either side of this con
fict.
The trouble. therefore, cannot be with the
men. The trouble is with the high COM
mands. liag has been operating in more or
less cooperation with the French and Bel
gians, it is true, but that cooperation has
not been intimate enough. The Italians and
Russians have been fighting as totally indie
pendent forces. The Americans have Just
begun to fight, and are, therefore, not to be
considered in what is passed. The Japanese
have remained far removed from the battle
line, as have practically all other allied bel
ligerents
These facts and circumstances render inn
peratiye union Of all the forces against Ger
many. If neither Russia nor Japan can be
counted upon, then France, England, Italy
and America must unite their interests A
move in this direction has been made as a
result of the Rome conference, and it is the
most encouraging step that has been taken
since our entrance into the war. The Paris
conference should complete the work begun
in Rome. There must be one general staff
which shall direct all the armies arraved
against Germany. Otherwise. Germany will
continue indefinitely the terrific punishment
which she has been inficting upon her
enemies.
