WILD GEESE HEARD
1T An EARLY HOUR

Between 1 and o'clock this morn
ing, the plaintive cry of wild geese
was heard from lofty heights s.s
flocks of the great birds flew over
the city, migrating from southern
waters and feeding grounds to the
north. The cries or "quacks" were
heard by several watchmen or
policemen, and one of the former was
Night Watchman VIM. Steele, who
was interested from the fact that it
always to him is the best argument
that cold weather is a thing of the
past, especially for the past season.
Mr.. Steele showed a memorandum
which he had made at year ago, and
1t was on the morning of April 20,
last year, when he noted the flight
of the birds. Thus the past winter
season, according to the ducks" was
six days longer than the cold season
of 1915.

DANNY JONES Has
JOB 1T WHITE HOUSE

Friends of Danny Jones, of this
city, will be pleased to learn that he
has Job at the White House in
Washington, where he is serving as a
guard.
Mr.. Jones some weeks ago notified
his friends that he had to go to
Washington, but beyond that gave
out no further information. Later
it developed that he had been ap-
pointed through Congressman Kehoe.
When congress adjourns he is al
lowed leave of absence with pay, it
is said, and upon the adjournment of
the present special session, he will
have an opportunity of coming to
Pensacola and remaining until the
converting of the next regular ses-

STRANGELY GARBED D
MEN To PREACH

Three wandering fTsraelites" at
tracted considerable attention in Pen
sacola yesterday afternoon-bare-
headed, barefooted and wore only a
cloth garment thrown loosely over
their shoulders and thighs, and car
ried a shepherds staff. The wan
derers call themselves true Israelites
and the real deciples of Jesus Christ.
Two Of the party were men and the
third boy about II years old. The
men had very long hair and boards,
and the little boy had curls over his
shoulders. These wanderers reach
ed here yesterday afternoon, and
stated they had come all the way
from Wauchula on foot. They say
they viii remain here several days
if they are not molested, and will
conduct some preaching services on

No men more gallant in action,

nation. Their mettle was tested on
every bloody battle field from the

are the radiant names of Southern

ians and educators, men OF every

1t was Patrick Henry who voiced
the conscience and determination OF
the oppressed colonists in his memo
rable words, "Give me liberty or give
me DEATH" 1t was Thomas Jeffer-

occupies, unshared, the pinnacle OF
American greatness and honor, whose
sword the colonies followed to vic
tory, and whose guiding genius LED
them to the formation of great and
stable nation. OF him Charles James
Fox used the words, "Illustrious man
before whom all borrowed greatness
sinks into insignifcance." Madison
was the father of the Constitution
and Marshall its great expounder
firmly establishing it as the supreme
law of our nation. This is the great
iurist of whom it was said that he

AGED KINGSTON WOMEN
TELLS HOW SHE RECOVERED
HER STRENGTH.


If the elderly people in Kingston
could only realize what Vinol would
do for them we would not be able to
get enough to supply the demand.

had done so much for her. | have
taken five bottles and my health and
strength have come back. so | am

The reason Vinol is so beneficial TO
old people is because it contains the
very elements needed to replace de-
clining strength with renewed vigor,
viz, beef and cod liver peptones, iron
and manganese peptonates, glycero-
phosphates and mild tonic wine.
We want to ask every elderly per-
SON and every weak, rundown or de-
bilitated person in Pensacola to call

The six varieties included in this
table together comprise about 95 per
cent of the wheat raised in North and
South Dakota and in Minnesota. In
1914 it was estimated that about 40
per cent of all the wheat grown in
these states was Bluestem. During
the past two years, however, the
acreage of this variety has decreased
because experience has shown it to
be a relatively low yielding variety.
Fife wheat makes up less than Is

prises about 20 per cent of the wheat

in South Dakota and Minnesota,
Marquis wheat is a eve variety
than any of the preceding, having
been introduced in 1913 and 1914.
The increase in acreage in this wheat,
however, has been remarkable, and
last year approximately one-third of
the total acreage in wheat was de-
voted to it.
Durum wheat represents from 10 to

ieties through breeding and selection.
This work, it is said, has not vet
progressed far enough to be of i'm
mediate practical value to the spring
wheat growers. What they wish to
know at the moment is what varie-
ties of spring wheat now available are
most rust resistant.
From the results obtained in 1916
from tests in the states of North
Dakota, South Dkaota and Minnesota,
it appears that durum varieties give
better yields under rust conditions
than varieties of common wheat.
The durum wheats are also high
yielders in normal. seasons. At the
present time two varieties are in
general use in this section the
Kubanka and the Arnautka. The
Kubanka, it is said, is best adapt
ed for growing in the drier, west
ern sections of the hard wheat
belt. The Arnautka can be grown
farther east, because it is less
affected than the Kubanka by a
humid climate or by seasons that
are abnormally wet.

That the growing of durum wheats
is a useful precaution against heavy
losses in seasons when rust prevails
is indicated by the results of ex-
periments conducted by the u. S.
Department of agriculture and the
State experiment stations in North
Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota.
In these three states, the leaders
in the production of hard spring
wheat, it is estimated that the
total loss in 1916 was approximately
179,000,000 bushels. Although part
of this loss was caused by wheat
,scab, hot weather, and other fact
'ors, it was due largely to a sew
ere and widespread epidemic of
stem, or black rust. It is always
possible that similar epidemics will
occur in the future, and the use
of varieties which will resist rust
is, therefore, of the utmost import
