There VIII Be

Put all these things together and 1t
must be admitted that the news from

has, of course, always had Two SldtS;
Gerranv made war upon the world
and risked the very formldaDl power
of America because she thought mlii-
ION tons of British shipping could pc

ance be shattered before the Onltea
States could mobilize. That was the
German hope, and as a plan for WIN

looked as if the Allies defensive

nre also IL was on this defensive that
we relied for the maintenance OF the
sea supplies, by which alone France,
Great Britain and Italy could keep up
their fighting power, by which alone
the lighting forces of the great Repub-
lie of the West could be brought upon
the field. A successful U-boat defen'
sivc. therefore, was vital TO complete
Allied military victory. And this has
for many months been in doubt. TINS

reasonable hope that the Allied ship

mands. And by this | mean that al

Moral and Physical
Failure of Frightfulness

II we have new light on the nature OF
the submarine campaign We have also
new light on its course. Every one
must have been struck by the fact that
while the weekly loss of British ship
ping was above the average in numbers,
IL was very far below the average IN
ships Of the greater tonnage. There Is
n good deal of news that indicates why
this is so. More personal narratives
have now been printed describing the
loss of the Devonian and there are
many other evidences that the convoy
system is being greatly perfected ana
extended. II is, Of course. the larger
ships only that can be worked con-
veniently in groups. And, obviously, II
is the loss of the larger ships that
really matters. For the first time, them
this week we have evidence that the
policy so long urged upon the naVai
authorities has at least been effectively
adoptcd since the British Admiralty
was recognized in the summer. and
the American navy not only TOOK a
hand in the war. but began TO make us
counsels felt. Could there be stronger
argument in favor of Americas share
in these counscls being more auihorita-
tive still? Then, as if to add substance
TO these differences, the British ADM
rally has published eight typical sto-
ries showing how the submarines are
hunted and destroyed. And an author
itv, anonymous but official, in London
sent US a message from London 10 say
that nj last the checking, if not the de-
feat. of the U-boat is in sight.

MOVING PICTURE STUDIO IS

Editor of The Journal:
Permit me little space in your
paper, as l have been reading sew
eral reasons why Pensacola should
have a movie studio.
l once made inquiry of business
friend in Jacksonville, Fla, where
twenty-three picture companies are
operating, and received the following
reply: 'The moving picture people
of Jacksonville have been great as
sistance here in employing men and
women who were idle At times they
employ a great many people at good
wages. They pay literally for this
kind of work. They distribute con-
siderable money through their pay
roll"
feel that the establishing of such
an enterprise here would give Pen
sacola an immense amount of desir-
able advertising.
A number of Pensacola business
men, led by a committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, should be
quietly at work to organize COM
pany for the purpose of establishing
studio and producing moving pic
lures in this city.

produce a "Florida Travelogue," q

AN ECONOMIC COMEBACK.

Once upon a time the South was the
money center of the country. It's great
fields were the principal source OF wealth.
It was essentially an agricultural age.
Times changed, machinery was invented,
manufacturing interests sprang up. The
South would have none of them. But too
late it saw the folly of shipping its raw ma
terial up North and buying it back in the
finished product. Followed the war, which
crippled initiative still further. Now, how
ever, the stricken champion is making a
comeback; and he is growing stronger ev-
cry day-from 1899 to 1914, for instance,
the capital invested in manufacturing in the
South increased 200 per cent. If the same
rate continued during 1915. and 1916, the
total for the entire South would be $5,246,-
100000, or over half the total for the entire
country just fifteen years ago.
Will the ratio continue? The Manufac-
turers' Record says yes:

TRUTH ABOUT LAND.

\
A young man, city bred, and with $1,000
capital, is one of the first to respond to
Alahamiss publicity. His letter, which was
printed in The Journal Friday, is the fore
runner of thousands like unto it. It is,
therefore, necessary to consider the prob
lem in detail.

What chance is there down here for a
man of his experience and capital, he asks.
Let facts answer.
For his land he would pay probably $25
an acre. Clearing would be SO more.
Seventeen pecan trees would cost SIT
planting and the first years fertilizer would
cost about So; preparation of the ground,
So; fencing, $40. Total charge per acre,
So Five acres is the utmost he could af-
ford to buy, if he was to have enough money
to build one-room house and to carry him
over the first year This takes into consld-
Grafton the help from tie Federal farm
bank
With proper treatment, paper-shell
pecans may be expected to produce 500
of nuts an acre at ten years of age. Pre-
vious production need not be considered
at all.

country is princely income in the king.
dom of happiness-if you raise your owr
chickens. grow your own vegetables, car
your own winter supplies, do your own
work; otherwise, five hundred dollars z
year is less in the country than in the city
because things cost more in the country
than in the city.
But in order to attain the independence
of $500 year, must live for nine years
What is left of the 81 900 will be exhausted
by the end of the first year; if, therefore
he has not learned the peculiarities Of
our farming by then, he will fail, as dc
so many people with insufficient capital, il
every line of business.
We personally know of one man who
came south without dollar to his name
worked as a day 1aborer for several years
until he understood conditions thoroughly
and then at fifty years of age set out tel
acres of pecan trees, which, two years ago
yielded over $1,000 in nuts alone, solt
wholesale, not to mention the hay am
nursery stock and vegetables grown be
tween the trees. Land was cheaper then
he paid only $40 and acre for it-but, afte
all the price of the land is the least of TIL
costs. He did the destumping himself, h
built split-rail fence, he raised his owl
nursery stock, he gathered his fertilizer Oh

did after his days work was done, for, I'm
derstand, he didn't let go of the $150 da,
job until his place was cleared, his hous
built, his first crop of vegetables ready t.
be sold.
