TAFT DISCUSSES
ENFORCED PEACE

New York, Jan. Ee-In answer to
criticisms which Theodore Roosevelt
and Senator William E. Borah, of
Idaho, have made of the League to
Enforce Peace, former President
William Howard Taft spoke here to-
night in defense of the scheme. He
addressed the Chamber of Commerce
of the Borough of Queens, and after
outlining the purposes of the league
he dismissed Col. Roosevelt's criti-
cisms in a few words. He said:
"Mr. Roosevelt objects to the
league with great emphasis. It would
have added to the usefulness of his
criticism if he had read carefully the
proposals of the league. He assumes
that the league proposes that the
judgments and recommendations Of
compromise reached shall be enforced
by the league. This is fundamen-
tai error. We may therefore dismiss
further consideration of Mr.. Roose
velt's objections"
Mr.. Taft pointed out that Atht
league contents itself, and believes
that it will make long step forward
if it succeeds. in securing a worlc
agreement by which hearings of tn,
irritating issue may be had and ;
decision rendered before war is al
lowed to begin. 1t is confident that
in most cases, a war thus delayed TO
a full discussion of the issues and
fair decision will never come"

Domestic Science Course

Dust plants are heterogeneous.
There are large numbers of minute
organisms so small that they cannot
be seen by the naked eye but require
the aid of powerful microscope to
show their presence. Various names
have been given to these minute hv-
ing bodies, such as ''germs" and "mi-
crobes"
Bacteria are carried on particles of
dust, in liquids, and on the surface
of fruits and vegetables as well as
other articles of food exposed in the
market. They may possibly find
their way into the house by means of
drains, and they are carried by in
sects. Normally, they are found in
the air, in the soil, in water, in food
in the mouth and the digestive tract
on the skin, under the nails, in the
hair, in the clothing.
The rapidity of reproduction de-

A third kind of plant organism is
often present in house dust. That or
ganism is yeast which is also a sin
gle cell but which is reproduced by
little buds that swell out from the
parent cell and may or may not break
off later.
The little yeast plant, although so
small and simple in structure, is en-
bowed with many of the powers of
trees and vegetables and other high
er plants. 1t requires food, has GER
tain range of temperature in which
it grows best, and is injured or killed
by too high or too low temperature
or by too little moisture.
The work of the yeast plant in
bread is to change the sugar in the
sponge into two substances, alco-
hol and a gas called carbon dioxid.
The millions of little bubbles in the
sponge cannot break through the
sticky gluten of the flour, so they

hardened, and little holes remain
filled with air only. The alcohol is
driven off by the heat.
1t is very difficult to keep weeds
out of the vegetable garden because
their seeds are carried to the sol
in many ways. When the weeds
have sprouted or grown n little, they
may be pulled up easily.
i In the bread garden we want only
yeast to grow, but it is very diff.
cult to insure its growth alone since
in the bread garden neither the gooc
plants nor the bad weeds ever become
visible.

PROGRESSIVE MARIANNA.

It was just recently that we commented
on Jackson county, which not only was liv-
ing at home, but was exporting various food
products, notably corn. Now we learn that
a modern corn meal mill, with a capacity
of So bushels an hour, is to be erected in
Mariana. "The demand by the larger
markets is for the bolted meal" says the
Times-Courier of Mariana, "and it is the
intention of this company to cater to that
trade, and they are assured of a ready mar
ket for the entire output"
Thus Jackson county in addition to be-
ing producing place, is becoming manu-
featuring center.
The Times-Courier adds that the same
company will later on erect big feed mill,
using the homegrown corn, velvet beans,
peanuts and field peas and vines
After honoring the progressive men who
are pushing our neighbor county to the
forefront, the question intrudes itself, like
an uneasy conscience, 'sWhatabout Escam-
bia and Pensacola? How much longer are
we to import from the north and west? Or
shall we import from Jackson county? No

LET'S BEAT TAMPA TO THE
MOVIES.

accustomed as we are (bcoadse of per
sistent advertising), to think of Tampa as
the wonder city Of Florida, the epitome of
push, the apothesis of wide-awakness, we
learn with a kind of shock that it harbors
anything resembling sleeping sickness. Yet
that is the precise malady which the Tampa

By peculiar coincidence The Pensacola

goes through in Pensacola - it falls

And looking at Tampa we find that it too
has right hand and an eye that must be
cut off and plucked out.
But this is no excuse for us to continue
stationary rather should it be an incentive
to us to beat Tampa in the race:
Because Jacksonville made itself known

Will anyone attempt to say that Jack
conville has better climatic, actinic, and
scenic advantages than Pensacola? Ger
tainly not-they are the same-in the last
case, they are inferior. While Pensacola
can match Jacksonville for sea, river, mod
ern building and forest scenes, Pensa-
cola has forts, ancient and modern, battle
ships, submarines, target practice, air
planes which Jacksonville does not have.
