TINE IN FLORIDA
JAN. 1, INSTEAD OF NOV. %
st. Petersburg Sticks to Summer
Time and the Clocks Are Set Back
and Then Up Again

St. Petersburg, Oct. 28.-(Special to
Tampa Tribune. )-Florida will be put
in the eastern time zone New Years
day, according to information receiv-
ed here from Chairman c. G. Nc
Chord, of the interstate commerce
commission. 1t has been definitely de-
cided that the change in zones will be
made January 1 instead of Thanks
giving day as was at first proposed.
The commission decided it would be
impractical and perhaps dangerous to
passengers using trains to change the
time zones at the same time "sum-
mer" time ends. The commission
agreed that it would have been easier
for the people had the change to east
ern time, in this state, been made yes
terday, in which event the clocks
would have been set back but the rail-
road administration believed this
would disarrange schedules and mix
up train crews to such an extent as to
be dangerous. The people of the PEN
insula of Florida therefore will go on
with normal time until Jan. /, when
the hands of the clocks will be set
forward one hour.
st. Petersburg Stays Put
st. Petersburg has followed the lead
of Jacksonville and has declined to
turn back the hands of the clocks
which were advanced an hour last
March. In view of the fact that the
change to eastern time, on the main
Florida peninsula, will be made Jan.
l, Mayor Lang, after talking with
many persons here today, issued a
proclamation establishing eastern time
now at st. Petersburg, although the
trains will use central time.

"PEACE THROUGH UNCON-
DITIONAL SURRENDER"

(By Wallace Irwin, Member Authors
Committee American Defense So
ciety.)
Of all the elaborately worded peace
proposals that have come to us
across the Rhine and the Danube
there has been only one worthy of our
acceptance-that which was brought
to a French commanding general by
eager Bulgarian ENJOYS who came
crying:
"We are beaten!! Disarm us and
make such terms as seem to you to be
just and fit"
Bulgaria didn't write a circular note
to the Entente powers, intimating
that something should be done in the
name of humanity or that there was
much to be said on both sides, or that
dispassionate lecture course at The
Hague would do much to soothe the
savage breast. Bulgaria didn't do
these things because she was honestly
tired of the war, honestly desirous of
peace and-what is more important
for us-honestly beaten.
Bulgaria has shown us on a small
scale what we must exact of Germany
on great scale. Germany, of course,
would prefer to negotiate than submit
to the law-or just as any bandit
would rather be tried by jury of
train robbers than by any legal au-
thorities.
To the Prussian mind negotiation is
merely another word for evasion.
Were the doves Of Potsdam cooling
lpeace by negotiation in 1914 when the
heavy German boots were stamping
over the twisted bodies of Belgian
women? Scarcely! Prussia went
forth to conquer the world, carrying
her terms Of peace behind her fam
enwerfers and her poison gas projec-
tors. Tt was only when she started
her disastrous course backward

MUTINY GROWING
IN GERMAN ARMY
Officers Are Defied and 10000
DeSerters Are Said to
Be in Berlin.
TROUBLE ALSO IN THE NAVY
-Four Torpedo Boats Are Seized, and
Attempt Is Made to Escape,
but Two Are Sunk by Pur-
suing BattIeship.

London.-General decentralization Of
Germany's population and widespread
and growing diSaffection in the German
army, accompanied by mutiny and de-
,sertions, are described in dispatch
to the Daily Telegraph from its Rotter-
dam correspondent.
The correspondent says that infor-
nation reaching him is so sensational
as to inspire skepticism, but declares
he has received undoubted cOrrObOra-
tion from authoritative sources.
He asserts that the Germany army
In filed with despondency and seeth-
ing with mutinous spirit, and that
alarming outbreaks have occurred in
several units, principally Bavarian and
Silesian.
One incident on the Arras front
terminated in a whole Bavarian divi-
sion being disarmed and transported
to Bavaria, where it was placed in
prison camp, and the mutiny of one of
the SileSian regiments resulted in near
ly 100 of its men being executed.
Desertions Are Heavy.
A huge number of deSertiOnS are
occurring, the correspondent says, and
it is estimated that there are more
than 10000 deserters in Berlin alone.
Large numbers are scattered
throughout the country and the author
tiles are having the greatest difficulty
In trailing deserters owing to the con-
Rivance OF the working classes. Never
theless hundreds have been arrested
and generally these have been SEN
fenced to 10 years Imprisonment. A
great number of imprisoned deserters,
broken bg solitary confinement, have
been released and sent back to the
ranks.
Disobedience and defiance of officers
Is common at the front, according to
the correspondents information, and
similar spirit is shown in the munitiOn
factories, where the workers deliber-
ately are slowing up, with the result
that the output has been seriously de-
creased.
Heavy cannonadng Heard.
"Irwas reported from various places
on the Danish and Norgegian coasts
three weeks ago that heavy cannonad-
ing was heard from the North. sea-"
says dispatch from Christiania to the
Times. "a few days later the bodies
OF German marines were washed up,
most OF them ON the coast of Jutland,
bnt no fighting was reported on either
the British or German side.
So there was much speculation about
these floating corpses which bore life
belts with the figures and initials OF
two different German torpedo boats.
An explanation is now given by the
Aftenpost's correspondent at Copen-
hagen, who says report was received
yesterday from across the German
frontier 0l a recent mutiny. German
navy crews refused to go aboard the
U1boats to which they belong, and
seizing four torpedo boats set course
for Norway.

SOW them If this can be accomplished
right away If you expect to pur-
chase the seed do not take the risk
of planting any at this season or the
wear. Crimson clover will do well II
the soil on which 1t is planted is
little sandy. 1t is not a crop adapted
as we'll, however, to thin sandy lands
as those which contain some clay. 1t
grows well on the Triton loan and the
Norfolk series. 1t does very well on
the Cecil clay of north Georgia and
also on the Greenville sandy loans
Crimson clover is a legume and is val
liable for the enrichment of the soil.
It may be grazed to considerable ex-
tent during certain seasons of the year,
particularly in south Georgia where
the sand keeps it from pudding very
readily. 1t is a crop which can be
cut and made into an excellent quality
of hay, provided it is cut when just
coming into bloom. We commend 1t to
your favorable attention and suggest
that If you are not acquainted with
it's merits that you grow 1t on an in
creasing scale from year to year until
yoVNhsre able to handle it on an ex-
To- scale.

ognized, even by the most optimistically
inclined people, to be very serious, and
it was generally felt that something
had to be done to excite the enthusiasm
of the troops, which had lately begun
to wane. The assumption by the car
of the supreme command seemed TO
present itself almost in the light of an
absolute necessity. Perhaps from some
points Of view Rasputin was not SO
very wrong to urge it, as it most GER
tainly produced a salutary effect on the
whole situation. But it is to be doubt
ed whether the prophet had ever look
ed at it from that point of view. 1t is
far more likely that his only aim had
been the displacing of the Grand Duke
Nicholas, who had begun to look too
closely into all that was going on
around Rasputin, and to watch the diff
ferent intrigues in which the latter was
taking part with an attention that did
not promise anything good for him, or
for the further development of his ca
reer as an adventurer.

There never was a time in the his

pare the land as soon as possible. Cover
IL well with yard manure or partly de-
cayed leaf mold from the woods Ten
tons per acre will not be too much to
use Pillow this material down thorough
ly. Work down to a good seed bed and
lay the land off in rows from three to
four feet apart depending on it's natur-
nj fertility. AS early in the spring as
practical scatter the fertilizer in the
bottom of the drill rows at the rate Of
500 pounds per acre. Mix with the sub
soil and plant the potatoes in your set
ton of the state. about the first to the
fifteenth of February. Cut the potatoes
to two eyes to the piece and drop one
set in a place eighteen inches apart.
Cover to a depth of several inches with
turn pillow. Harrow off the top of
the ridge as soon as the potatoes begin
to approach the surface of the ground
For fertilizing purposes there is moth
ing better to use than equal parts of
cotton seed meal and acid phosphate.
Liberal fertilization is essential for
success with this crop and the selection
of a variety well adapted to this part
of the country is also desirable. You
will find Irish Cobbler or Bliss Triumph

use eight pounds of salt. Place layer
of salt one-quarter inch deep in the
bottom and then layer of meat. Con-
tinue this process until the container
is full. reserving enough salt to cover
the top. Let it stand over night and
then add four pounds of brown sugar.
two ounces of baking soda and four
ounces of saltpetre dissolved in one gal
lon of lukewarm water for each 100
pounds Of meat to be cured A weight
should be placed on top of the meat to
keep it all under the brine. During warm
weather water for making brine should
be boiled and then cooled. Sanitation is
a very important matter to keep in mind
in curing meat. Twenty-eight to forty
days are usually sufficient for curing
beef by this method.
Pork may be picked or cured in brine.
To cure in brine proceed as follows:
Obtain a hardwood barrel or hogshead
and carefully scrub the same with boil
ing water. Pack the large cuts at the
bottom as closely as possible. Prepare
the picking solution as follows: For
each 100 pounds of meat take eight
pounds of salt, four pounds of brown
sugar or molasses. three ounces of salt
petre. Add four gallons of water which
has been boiled and allowed to cool.
Pour this solution over the meat on the
basis indicated above. Weight the meat
so the brine will cover all Of it. The
meat should be cured sufficiently in ten
days to two weeks to permit of its being
taken out and replaced in a different
order in order to give the brine
chance to penetrate the spots where the
pieces lay together. 1t will require from
thirty to forty days to cure bacon, forty
five to sixty days for ham and shout
ders. At the end of this period it is
ready to be taken out and smoked.

Peanut meal varies materially in
composition. depending on whether the
hulls are included or excluded there
from. Peanut cake or meal, for instance,
without the hulls, contains 42.S per cent
digestible protein, 20.4 per cent digestt-
BILE carbohydrates and 10 per cent di-
gestible fat. Cottonseed meal of choice
quality contains only 81 per cent diges-
tible protein, 21.S per cent digestible
carbohydrates and SO per cent diges-
tibIe fat. Where the peanut hulls are
included with the cake this product
will be found to contain approximately
2O2 per cent digestible protein, 16 per
cent digestible carbohydrates and about
10 per cent digestible fat. This material
would therefore rank in composition be-
low even choice, prime or good cotton
seed meal. since il would contain from
10 to II per cent less of digestible
protein though little more fat. Peanut
meal including the hulls would compare
quite closely in feeding value with what
! il known as cold pressed cottonseed
meal 1t would outrank i'm feeding value
what is known as cottOnseed feed.
