Marston Park was officially set
aside in the Introduction and reading
for the first time by the commission

regular meeting of the board of city
commissioners, yesterday afternoon.
There was no objection in the least

third times and then passed. The COM

WHEN you TALK ABOUT THE WAR

For more than year we have been actively
engaged in the war; and have been talking about
it, but even yet the majority of people do not
know how to pronounce words the war has
brought into prominence, and which will remain
part of Americas vocabulary as long as
this war is remembered.
Ninety-nine persons out of every hundred are
stumped by the word "Aisne,' They nearly all
call it "ace-nee' whereas it is only one-syllable
word-"ane' rhymes with pane 'Amies'
is another stumbling-block. Educated persons
who would never dream of pronoucing the final
So in Calais" sound it in "Amiens.' "Ah-me-
ahn' is as nearly correct is possible in English
On the other hand, the "s'' is sounded in Ar
ras.' 1t is pronounced "ahr-rahs'-both as
are long. "oise" is PRONOUNCED "whaz," sound
ing the "a" as in father
BUTT is not only in place names that the
average American makes blunders. War words
generally are much abused. How many people
know how to pronounce General Foch's name?
If they don't call it Foil" they say .Fosh. :
It ought to be .'Fawsh.
INSTRUMENTATION of the word ALLY u.s. perhaps,
the most common mistakes. The majority
lays stress on the first syllable, and the majority
is wrong. The accent is always on the last syll
able, whether you speak of "A-lie'' or allies"
And don't say "communeek" when you mean
communique. The word has four syllables--
.skah-moo-nee-kay.'
"Poilus'-which, by the way, means nothing
more or less than bewhiskered, hairy is a word
that has crept into the English language for
keeps" It is pronounced spwah-lu." Another
common war nickname is "Boche, )" which English
and Americans always call "Bosh" There is
nothing so irritating as to have ones name mis-
pronunced, anyone has free permission to go
on calling the German t'Bosh.' But, strictly
speaking, it ought to be "Bowsh,'' from the
French word, 'caboche," which, in dictionary Of
slang, would be defined as meaning .thickhead.'

CROPS
LOOKING GOOD
IN ALL SECTIONS

Jacksonville, Aug 12-(SpeciaL)-
The crop reports from xne country at
large Is encouraging in the main, says
the State Marketing Bureau One
weak spot is that the early crop OF po-
tatoes does not look good.
There has been long period or
drought on the Pacific Coast and east
ward to Texas. Up to the extreme hot
weather of the last few days the
spring wheat, corn and oats outlook
OF the northwest was never better.
With a long spell Of dry weather in
Texas and Oklahoma the pasturage is
not good, and the same is true Of con-
siderable areas in the plains states.
This means scarcity OF hay. The in
tense heat Of the past week will fur
ther injure this prospect. 1t means
possibly that but little or no hay will
come south this winter, and Florida
and the south will have 10 look to their
stock feed resources.
The cotton area of Florida has been
broadened by paintings being extend
ed in more southerly counties. Semi
mole county has the record of sending
the first bale to the Savannah market,
where it was sold at auction, bringing
fancy price. The cotton prospect
throughout the state, despite the boil
Weevl, Is lair.
More corn was planted throughout
Florida than ever before and where
cultivation has been maintained, the
yield is promising.
The castor bean crop Is advancing.
but the presence of the army worm is
causing much concern. The State
Plant Board has large force of ex-
perts looking after this pest.
The sweet potato acreage is reported
less than last year, the crop generally
looks well but there are reports of
weevil injury in various localities.
The citrus fruit outlook is better
than It was last year. and unless the
unexpected happens the yield will be
large. The only difficulty in sight
is inability to handle it owing to the
scarcity of labor. It is recommended
that the growers enlist women and
children for picking and packing.
More forage crops have been plant
ed than for a long time and not hav-
ing had the hot weather that has pre-
vailed in the north, conditions are fav-
orable.
The systematic activity of the Live
Stock Sanitary Board in carrying on
a campaign for dipping cattle. to ex-
terminate the tick, is being felt in all
parts Of the state, with beneficial re-
suits
It is urged that growers of pear,
peach and other fruit trees cut off and
burn all blighted branches and cut
several inches below the dead part
Also cut out all water sprouts from
fruit trees. and keep the weeds down.
Watch for bugs and insects and If
found in numbers to do serious dam
age. ask the help of Wilmon Newell,
state plant commissioner, at Gaines
vile.
The United States government is
anxious to increase the winter wheat
acreage and farmers in the north half
Of Florida are urged to give the mat
ter consideration. Address the depart
ment of agriculture, Washington, D.
c., for details.
Plan ahead for this winters garden
and field crops. Good seed is scarce
and high priced. Write 10 the state ex-
pertinent station at Gainesville for
method to test the vitality of the
seeds.

PROPAGANDA AGAINST EMPLOYMENT
SERVICE

SERVICE
Indications of widespread and systematized
propaganda in the Middle West, designed to OBJ
struct the transfer of machinists, toomakers, and
other skilled workmen to essential war industries
have been brought to the attention Of the United
States Employment Service. An investigation is
being made to ascertain whether false rumors
that heave been widely circulated among work
ingmen are the result of misunderstanding are
deliberate lies intended as part of pro-German
campaign to restrict the output of munitions and
other war supplies
One of the most insidious of the stories going
the rounds, and one which has received much
prominence in Indiana, is that registration with
the Employment Service and agreement to leave
a nonwar plant to engnge in the manufacture of
munitions is the first step toward the battle line
in France 1t is stated that once a worker re-
gisters with the Employment Service he is obi
gated to go wherever the Government wants
him, which it is said, sis most likely to be just
back of the firing line" Another story runs that
workers have accepted position with war
plant they will not be permitted to quit that en-
ploy AS result many skilled workers appear to
have left their jobs and gone to their homes in
order to be with their families and friends when
the centralized recruiting policy becomes effec-
tive.
Agents of the Employment Service in the Mid
die West report these misapprehensions general
in many sections, and that as consequence they
are being handicapped in placing men where they
can be of most service to the country.
To silence thesefalse and sinister rumors John
B. Densmore, Director General of the United
States Employment Service, has issued the fol-
lowing statement:
Skilled workmen who accept Government work
no more likely to be sent to France than any
other civilian.
Except in those cases where men of draft age
are engaged in occupations classified by the Sec
rotary of War as 1nonproductive,' the Govern
ment has no intention of interfering with the
fundamental right of any civilian to change his
work as he sees fit. In all eases the individual
workers sense of patriotic duty is the only dind-
ing tie between that worker and war job

LICENSED WAREHOUSES; FOR COTTON

LICENSED WAREHOUSES; FOR COTTON
That licensed warehouses for cotton are at
tracing increased attention is indicated by more
than 500 inquiries recently received by the bu-
reau of markets. To secure licenses, warehouses
must comply with certain requirements to
construction and operation which intended
to put the business of warehousing on a firm
basis. Uniform receipts feature of the
licensing and these enlarge the field for dis
counting cotton paper. Another feature is the
reduction of insurance rates which may result
under federal license. Rates now vary from 25
cents to $3.50 500 worth of cotton in storage.
Reasonable storage rates, made possible through
economies insurance and management would,
it is said, encourage growers to store cotton and
so decrease the amount of country damage
caused by keeping cotton on the farm without
adequate protection.
