MELON GROWERS
BEING LISTED

West Florida watermelons will be
in great demand this season, and now
that ample freight cars for their
transportation seem assured the
growers expect to make splendid
profits on their crops. Buyers are
already making inquiries regarding
the number of melons which will be
shipped from the Pensacola district,
and several large buyers have asked
J. A. Avant, of the Consolidated Gro
Gerry Company, to supply the names
of growers who will ship in car load
lots. Mr.. Avant is compiling a list
of growers and he asks all who will
make quantity shipments to commun-
icate with him so that he may for
ward the information to the buyers.

Just as the Kaiser Wills

"The worst pessimlsts now must see
that Germany is strong enough 70 win

Stop a few moments. Close your eyes,
think. Think deeply and well
GERMANY IS STRONG ENOUGH
TO WIN PEACE BY FORCE"
What do sou see portrayed before your
eyes? A German peace? All the small
nations cowed? Some of them divided,
torn, bleeding and desoIate? The ruth
less and cowardly hand Of the Hun still
casting its fearsome shadow over Bel
GUM? A peace which exalts German
british warfare and mocks at the democ-
racy of the people and human liberty
and common Justice A peace which for
years to come will darken your lives and
the lives of your chldren's children with
the blight of kaiserism and militarism?
Are those your thoughts?
Well, this is the threat Germany hurls
at the world tiermany thrusting her
blood-stained fist thru to the heart Of
Italy. hurls this defy thru one of her
kaiser-controlled newspapers, the Weser
Zeitung:

The United States Will
Win the War; Fruits OF
Our Soil Will Do 1t

Before this war many learned al i'4it'
were written. proving 20 the writers sat
isfaction that the nations OF the earth
could never again engage IN great con-
flict because of the enormous cost IN
money
Commercial interests OF the different
nations were so interviewer, II was an
gued. that the money power of the world
could not permit wal so take place
The interests OF capitalism one
country. it was argued, were ineSrcably
united with those of other countries.
Ruin for one spelled ruin for ALL
The war came and with It's advent the
theorists were put 10 rout.
Money was spent like water billions
were poured ou billions, and still the war
continued
Toady the debts OF Germany are SO
staggering As to defy all comprehension
yet Germany fights on.
The same is true in a lesser degree OF
all the other nations.
"Where do they get the money 70 fight
with 2" is the universal question.
The answer is that the war IS ques-
ton not Of money but Of resources.
Money, in itself, represents nothing.
1t is simply a medium Of exchange.
A mechanic, We will say, works for two
hours and receives dollar.
For this dollar he buys ten pounds OF
sugar.
He has really paid for this sugar with
his two hours work, the coin acting
simply as a medium of exchange.
But if, as was the case last week, there
is no sugar, his coin is valueless.
1t is the pentitude or lack Of commodi-
ties for which he can exchange his dollar
which determine that dollars value.
So long as a nation has the food, the
men, the iron, the steel, the coal with
which to make war, it cannot be beaten.
If her vaults are overiowing with gold
and it lacks these essentials, it is done
for.
And as the ultimate source Of all these
things is in the soil, the nation whose soil
produces in greatest abundance will win
the war
Because Germany's soil has been
brought to high state of cultivation,
and because her armies hold the iron and
coal fields of France, she has been able 20
hold out to date against the world.
She could hold out just as well if there
were not an ounce of gold in the imperial
treasury.
So long as the fundamental necessities
are produced in abundance, the medium
of exchange by which they are distrib-
uted is a mere detail.
The United States possesses natural
resources to a greater extent than any
other nation.
It's potential power is infinitely SUI
perior to Germany's.
And for that reason the United States
is going to win the war, no matter how
long the conflict is prolonged.
