HOME AND GARDEN CONTEST

ularity with the people of the city.
The indirect results of the contest
were almost as great as the direct
results. The Commercial club of
Davenport, seeing the result of the
contest, offered prizes for the best
window boxes on the business houses
in the business district, with the re-
suit that in 1915 they were instru-
mental in having placed 1850 feet Of
window boxes in the city.
A large mail order house plowed
up all the vacant property around
its plant and planted it in trees,
shrubs and flowers, expanding over
$1,000 in one year for this improve
ment in landscaping. A live insur-
ance company laid out the entire
block near it's office building in the
same way; and a railroad company
made extensive improvements on its
property near its freight house.
The Rotary club assisted in the se-
curing of an ordinance with relation
to the disposal of refuse and garbage
and vas result Davenport has the
cleanest alleys of any city in the
state.
The Davenport Rotary club has
also been instrumental in securing an
act of the legislature which author
ICES the city by ordinance, to place
the care of the trees of the city out
side of the lot lines under the con-
troll of the park commission.
! These are but few Of the many
direct and indirect results which have
come to pass through the instrument
tally of the Rotary club getting be-
hind the movement in Davenport.
The Yard and Garden contest idea
is not a new one. 1t has been in OPP
Grafton in one form or another for
several years in many cities and
towns in different parts of the coun-
try. But it remained for Davenport
to make their contest unique and to
place their city in the forefront of
Cities Beautiful.
What Davenport has done Pensa-
cola can do-and this city should be
able to go even farther than the
Iowa town. For nowhere else in the
world is there a more promising
background for such a movement. To
visitors to Pensacola the trees and
grass. green all winter long, and the
wonderful microscopes, are a source
of constant wonder and admiration
i Those who have taken up garden

results which ray be obtained.

man

The wealth of cherokee roses on the
bayshore, the quantities of yellow
jessamine and exquisitely beautiful
lockwood in the woods, both of which
so readily lend themselves to trans
planting, the violets and roses which
blossom here almost continuously
through the winter, the vari-colored
drifts of sweet peas which during the
past few years have transformed so
many gardens, the poisoning bulbs,
in their many beautiful shades of
coloring, and so easily grown-all Of
these and countless others will make
of Pensacola city of beauty, indeed,
if the people work hand in hand for
the success of this movement, which
will mean so much to the city.
Pensacola takes a great pride in
the Alaflamiss campaign which has
just been launched. Pensacola bust
ness men have invested largely in
this movement. Through the pub
licity to be gained through this
medium, many persons will doubtless
be attracted here.
When they come, Pensacola should
have set her house in order. Trees
should be cared for, lawns should
be in order, and barren places
should be planted in flowers, grass
or vegetables. But above all, these
places should be kept clean and gar
nished. Not only should there be no
unsightly front gardens-neither
should there be any uncleanly back
yards. Nothing uncleanly may be
beautiful, and nothing clean may be
entirely ugly.
/ Bearing this in mind, the Rotary
club of Pensacola has launched this
campaign, which, if carried out with
| enthusiasm, will make of Pensacola
a city in which all may take IN equal
pride, and which will not only at
tract visitors, but will go far to-
wards holding them as home-makers.
| Entries are now being received and
may be filed at any time prior to
March /. They should be addressed
to Walter d. Willis, chairman, City
Beautiful Committee, P. o. Box 863
Pensacola. For the convenience OF
contestants, an entry blank is print
ed in another column of today's
Journal.
i A number of merchants have be-
come interested in the campaign and
will assist the committee by distrib-
uting entry blanks and with widow
displays calling attention to the con-
test.

Vessels Built at Pensacola
@ Performing Valiant Service

is 1887 feet in length, 1914 feet wide
and has depth of 4.8 feet. While
cumbersome appearing vessel, it is
said that for towing, the old Florida
walks away" with thousands of
sticks of timber in raft and from five
to eight loaded lumber barges. The
Florida viii engage in the excursion
business at this point this coming
season, having been generally inn
proved and fitted with hundreds of
life preservers during the latter part
of last summer. 1t is possible she
can safely house at least 500 pas
sengers, and then furnish room for
dancing on her upper decks.
The river steamer Eugene, another
large vessel whose home port is PEN
sacola, was built at Whitfield, only
a comparatively short distance from
Pensacola, and is one of the few yes
sells operated all the year around to
the Choctawhatchie bay points, be-
cause of her little depth. The Eu
gene is 102 feet in length, 22.7 feet
beat and AZ feet deep. She was
built in 1906.
The excursion steamer Charles E.
Cessna, one of the finest of excursion
boats, was built at Santa Rosa, Fla.
Although in Mobile, the Cessna still
has Pensacola as her home port. This
vessel, following plans of DIR. Cessna,
owner, was built entirely of native
woods, and for several seasons piled
between this port and Santa Rosa,
where quite fourishing settlement
is maintained the year around. A
couple of years ago she went over
to Mobile go into drydock, and re-
manned there for the better excurs-
ion business than is obtained here.
The Cessna, built in 1913, is 169 feet
over all, 34.4 feet beam and six feet
deep.
There are numerous vessels now
doing duty in Pensacola bay and adj
jacent waters which were constructed
here. At the Hoodless shipyard at
Milton, scores of schooners, barges
and smaller craft are turned out, and
| the yards there are idle but little
| time.
The latest creation in ship build
ing at Pensacola, is the Bingham
schooner, now being SNAPPED up al
the ways on Barcelona wharf. This
vessel is attracting a considerable lot
of attention.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-01-28

Pensacola's excellent chance to
secure the drydocks and ship building
ways, by reason of the activity and
manifest interest OF the Bruce Dry
dock interests, lately here from Mo-
bile, bring forth the fact that Pen
sacola, and surrounding country,
after all, is not so far behind in ship
building. In fact, in the harbor to-
day, the sturdiest tugboats were built
either at Pensacola or Milton, and
they have rounded out a full thirty
to forty years of service.
The steamer Okoloosa, now owned
by Captain Trobuk, is an example of
local ship building. The Okoloosa,
built at Milton and launched in 1886,
is now thirty-one years old, and is
good for many more years of serv-
ice. This tug is 60 feet in length,
15.4 feet wide and has a depth of
5.S feet. For model and general APP
pearance, the Pensacola built tug is
in the front row.
Another steamer, Pensacola
built product, is the stern wheeler
Florida, the property of the Florida
Towboat Company, of which Captain
/. H. Aiken is president. The Flor
ida was built for shallow water up
the sound and up the Blackwater, and
has rendered good service during the
26 years of her activity. This vessel
