THE LEADER-EDIToRIALs
HELPING THE CAUSE ALONG

HELPING THE CAUSE ALONG.
The country is launching anoth-
er drive to raise three billion dol
lars for the cause of freedom. The
press of the country is giving col
umns of its space besides paying
for the production of type and
giving time to write articles urg-
ing the public to purchase these
bonds. This advertising costs the
papers real nloney-big money
and few philosophical men
have shown that they were will
ing to help the papers bear this
great expense. In Tarpon Springs,
we are glad to say, there are two
men who have already come for
ward and purchased advertising
space in The Leader for this pur-
pose. In yesterdays issue there
was a handsome page ad which
was paid for-the ad said by a
prominent Greek business man
but we think the public ought to
know that it was Mr.. N. G. Ar
faras. Today's Leader carries a
quarter-page ad paid for by Har-
ry Shaw & Co, and we hope to
have others show their willing
ness to help bear this expense of
advertising.
The Leader has a lot of adver-
Using matter prepared by the
government which the people of
the city are requested to have
printed in their paper and pay for
it. The Leader cannot stand the
entire expense of advertising free
of charge the liberty lean, the
Red Cross, the Y. M. G.. A., the
food administration and the
thousand and one other necessary
things which should be put before

Beans Versus Potatoes.

From the Boston Transcript.
Speakers at the meeting Of the New

food conservation. The advice Is good
for all farmers and gardeners as well
as for nurserymen. In the year 1917
the country may be said to have spe-
cialized agriculturally on potatoes
This was due In large part to the ex-
tremely short potato crop OF the pre-
ceding year. and s,.t to the Uneasy msaspraSl

Whiskers.
From the Indianapolis News.

From the IndiAnapouS NeWn.
There are intimations that whisksrs
are to be much worn during the spring
and summer. Likewise the indication
is that II whiskers obtain q firm hold
during the growing season. they viii
be retained as a fall and winter cover
cause SO many soldiers find 1t impos-
sible to shave while at the front, and
are permitting their boards to grow.
Those who bark back to the past re-
call that boards were common and
likewise popular following the close
Of our own civil war.
Whiskers were used as camouhage
long before there was any such word.
Perhaps the best and most popular use
to which whiskers may be put is As
camouflage. Many a man has grown a
Vandyke and thereby provided himself
with the commanding appearance of a
lieutenant general. Whiskers provide
an excellent screen for restless
Adams apple. Also they are great
necktie savers. = II worn sufficiently
long and bushy. They have been
known to protect a soiled shirt front.
but those Of this class must needs be
copious and related to the jungle.
Since the civil war whiskers have
been worn in the White House by Lin
coin. Grant. Hayes. Garfield. Arthur
and Harrison. So the bewhiskered plain
citizens are in good company. Arthur
affected the flowing side whisker style.
but the other Presidents mentioned
ran mostly to the common variety. Re-
cent Presidents have been smoothly
shaved or else compromised on mus
taches. Secretary Redfleld has made an
effort to introduce side lines in whisk-
ers into official life in Washington at
the present time. but he has not met
with any great degree Of success.
After all, there is as much excuse
for whiskero as there is for the pecu-
liar looking things that adorn SO many
of the young upper lips at the pres
emit writing. These decorations have
been likened to misplaced eyebrows.

THE WORLDS MARKETS
STOCKS AND BONDS

New York, July 7.-Trading in stocks during the dull and irregular week lost none of its recent professional char acteristics, but a moderate accession of investment buying followed the advent of the new fiscal year.
 Speculative interests derived much encouragement from the further lib erality shown by the government in it's price fixing policy, the advance to the copper producers exceeding the most sanguinary expectations.
 Some uneasiness followed the pubH- cation of the feredal trade commits sion's arraignment of various industrial companies, and the attitude of the ad- ministration toward the country's tele- graph and telephone companies, pro voked moderate liquidations of these and allied utilities.
 The money markets adapted them selves more generally to the demands created by war finance. time funds showing increasing paucity. New cap itaI financing is in process of nego- tiation by corporations engaged in large and profitable contracts.
 General trade conditions offer ground for confidence, bank clearings for June far exceeded any ever reported for that month.
 It is understood further large ad- vances are to be made shortly to en- tente governments and conferences in progress with the state department are said to indicate satisfactory outcome of negotiations for 8 loan to China. Steps are under way for a rectifica- tion of exchange between this country and Spain

COTTON

New Orleans, July 7.--Cotton prices part of last week, and the closing quo tations showed net losses of to 70 points. Bearish government reports on the crop were the chief inflences against prices. Late in the week dry weather over the belt was the main factor in tion from the decline. Lowest prices were 1S7 to 15s points under the closing levels of the previous week.
 The governments figures on condition Of S5,s on June 25, together with the acreage report showing an increase of 62 per cent, indicated crop of 15,325. GOO bales not including linters. These re- ports were issued Tuesday and caused recessions both during that session and that of Wednesday. After the holiday Thursday the market did better on the continued drouth in Texas and fear that the drouth was about to extend to other sections of the cotton region. Shorts GOV cred freely on the fear that with a co elimination of present conditions the crop report on July 25 would be under that of June 25.
 This week there is little doubt that wea ther reports will rule the market. Should the trading of the new week open on continued drouth over the belt the advantage would be strongly with the buying side. Good rains. especially in Texas, would give the bears the best oe it. The trade will work on the theory, in the immediate future, that good rains during July and August make the crop.
 The outcome of the conference last week in New Orleans of cotton states pd which resulted ir. resolutions favoring government pur- chases of cotton at fixed prices. will be watched with great interest. but most traders appear to think that weather de- velopments will transcend all other fea- lures in importance in the near future.
