more cotton planted in his section
this year than last and he supposed
there would be 70 per cent average
crop; had trouble last year getting
labor and expects the same conditions
this season; that there were about
1000 acres planted in his section this
year.
Mr.. Arnold of Okahumpka said
there was a small acreage planted this
year in his section but they had
plenty of labor.

pound basis for the coming 1918 sea-
son, which was seconded, and, after
considerable discussion was over
whelmingly carried.

garding the Roadway made by the

Blackjack be requested to lend his as
sistance and influence in an effort to
secure a federal agent to control the
labor situation in this section, which
motion was seconded and unanimous

Chairman Blackjack assured the
growers that he would do his utmost

PERsHING

Ell Paso, Tex. July 24.-Americans
who accompanied General Pershing
to Mexico in the various civilian ca
pacities never tire of talking of the
little sidelights on the character of
the general commanding the Ameri-
can forces in France, as shown to
them while he was in the desert of
western Chihuahua.
II saw a better character sketch
of General Pershing than any Of the
writer's can picture" said one battle
man here. "He squatted in front of a
camp fire at San Geronimo5 frying
his bareback in the bacon grease of
his mess pan, with the wind blowing
sand into his face and food and the
general grinning good naturally all
the time as one of our cowpuncher
scouts spun yarn about buffalo
hunt he was on in the Little Canadian
up in the Panhandle"
These men tell many Incidents of
General Pershing's stay on the border
and in Mexico as illustrations of his
regard for his men and for the serv-
ice.
On an inspection trip from Mani
quipa to Colonia Dublan he saw a
mule driver beating his team be-
cause they would not pull an over
loaded wagon out of a rut Jumping
from his automobile, General Perish
ing lectured the mule driver, forced
him to Tighten the load, deftly swung
the team around and drove the wagon
onto the high road.
Again he reprimanded a colonel
who forced his men to march all day
with 60-pound field pack when
empty motor trucks were passing
all day en- route to the same desti-
nation.
"An American soldier will fight
harder, live on less food and accept
more hardships than any other sol
der in the world" General Pershing
said, in commenting on the incident.
"But he can see no reason why his
pack should not be hauled in empty
trucks if trucks are passing. Neither
do l."
A camp sutler at Colonia Dublan
struggled in an automobile load of
bad whisky. After disposing of his
stock, the man appeared at General
Pershing's headquarters to ask for a
pass back to the border. He got the
pass and a free ride as a prisoner and
was forced to dig latrines and repair
roads en- route.
The announcement that General
Pershing had adopted two French or
phans recalled flood of tender mem
-ories to friends of General Pershing
on the border for it was while he was
in command here that his wife and
two children were burned to death at
the Preside in San Francisco. Gen.
eral Pershing's hair, chestnut
brown, slowly turned to gray after
his loss and he could be seen fire.
