FOOD PROFTTEERS.

Orlando, Jan. 6.-Federal Food Ad-
ministrator Braxton Bcacham has
been instructed by the Washington au-
thorities to use every means necessary
to prevent profiteering by dealers in
food, and there is no doubt that some
real activity will begin without delay,
as reports reaching him Indicate that
some dealers have taken undue advan-
tage Of the public and are raising
their prices beyond what the food ad-
ministrati6n terms reasonable
profit"
Repeated warnings have been issued
to acquaint the public with the fact
that the United States food admins
tration is still active and in control of
certain food commodities. Erroneous
reports circulated through the country
some time ago to the effect that the
food administration would end on Jan
uary l. The reports were not authen-
tic, as the food administration remains
on the job, and especially authorized
to deal with fragrant and wrongful
practices on the part Of dealers.
While some of the rulings of the
food administration have been partial
ly relaxed, while others have been re-
pealed altogether, the rules which
govern margins of profit on food COM
modities remain in full force and eff
feet. The increased privileges given
dealers by the relaxation of some rul-
ings should be sufficient to win the
fail'-minded dealers to further efforts
in behalf Of the food administration.
Food Administrator Beacham declares
his intention of following up all cases
of deliberate profteering by the impo-
sition Of penalties which will have
lasting effect upon violators of the
rules.
Until formal peace has been sign
ed by the United States government,
the food administration remains IN
force, and from every section of the
country, reports indicate that the
heavy hand of the law is falling on
those who ignore the regulations.
That few in Florida are in danger of
the extreme penalties, can not be
doubted as evidence already in the
hands of Administrator Beacham
bears out the fact.

BE HUMBLE, o AMERICA!

(Vilda Savage Owens in the New
York Times)
Be humble, o America! let not
The idle boast, the weak vainglory blot
The fair white page of our achieve

Us not in this triumphant hour forget
The years we, hesitating, held aloof,
While nations trembled meath the
cloven hoof.
Forget not Belgium! With unerring
blow
She hurled her slender body 'gainst
the foe,
And, bleeding, writing, paid the aw-
full toll,
To save a world and her immortal
soul.
Forget not France! UnfaItering she
came,
Unfurled her banner, crying Free

FOR tour long years she flashed her
tlery sword,
And checked the onslaught of that
barbarous horde.
Bare are the fields where sleep her
hallowed dead,
But God has planted poppies on each
bed.
Forget not Britain! With her little
band
OF old Contemptibles" she took her
stand,
And, fearless, faced an overwhelming
foe,
Met thrust with thrust and blow with
furious blow,

4 SMALL EPISODE WITH 4
GREAT PRINCIPLE.

In somebody's Block in this town
there Ives an HONEST MAN. To
this virtue must be added sense of
HONOR golden bright He is a Young
n.a2, N business for himself, working
towards . certain goal, straight and
sure.
Where did you hear that it was easy
to b horest: Do you find that in your
.h-5'e? EASY? Put to return to our
Stor}--This young man was called to
the service Of his country, and desir-
ing TO get rid of his possessions, he
sod one Of them to a friend for a
goodly sum. Now there are always
two questions to be considered-th
quality Of what We buy and the price
we have to pay for it. The friend did
not consider either Of these. There
was an agreement (betwecn friends)
that should the yoU0g man return,
which was doubtful. he would repur-
chase the article. And so he went
away, and after many months return
ed to pick up the threads of his dis
organized business. The friend, who
had found his purchase a burden on
his hands which he could i'll afford,
wrote the young man a friendly note
asking if he were WILLING to fulfill
their agreement. Now here shows
the HONOR golden bright. Without
delay, without quibbling argument the
young man came at once to ratify his
word. HIS WORD, mind you, for the
friend never would have appealed fur
ther than this. 1t was not convenient
for the young man to stand by his
agreement, nor was it profitable "bit
OF. business" but nevertheless HIS
WORD was his bond
'If my brother or kinsman will be
my friend | ought to prefer him be-
fore a stranger, or l show little duty
or nature to my parents"
This is the small episode" in the
life of AN HONEST MAN.

Proposed Engin-.
eering Expert
ment Station

The value of the agricultural expert
ment stations toward increasing pro-
duction in agriculture has now become
so thoroughly demonstrated that con-
gress is considering the establishment
of similar experiment stations to serve
other industries. A bill for this pur-
pose is now before congress and is
known as the Smith-Howard bill, hav-
ing been introduced in the senate by
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia and in
the house of representatives by Mr..
Howard Of the same state. This bill
has been referred to the committee on
education, of which w. J. Sears of
Florida is chairman.
The plan which the bill proposes is
very much like that under which the
agricultural experiment stations work.
Engineering experiment stations are
to be established in every state at the
expense of the federal government,
and under the general direction of the
bureau of standards of the department
of commerce. These experiment sta
tons will endeavor to stimulate the
industries of manufacturing, trans
portation, mining, public utilities, etc,
by carrying out researches, investiga-
tions and experiments.

NOTHING is SMALL

In an old Hindoo story Ammi says
to his son, Bring me a fruit of that
tree and break it open. What is
there ?" The son said, "Some small
seeds" '"Break one Of them and what
do you see?" Nothing, my lord"
"My childs" said Ammi. "where you
see nothing there dwells a mighty

mand for more and more publicity.
i have had the pleasure of meeting
many Of the newspaper editors of
Florida, and l feel as if / am per-
sonaliy acquainted with each and ev-
cry one. They have been most kind
to me and my copy. Very few have
used the scissors, and very few have
thrust an editorial lance into my
methods. For all of these things | am
truly thankful and appreciative.
To those of the newspapers which
are continuing to mail copies to our

be dropped from the lists.
May success and prosperity be the
reward of your patriotic effort and
your especial assistance to the United

When all pure bred herds are under

be possible for cattle raisers to puv-

the assurance that they will receive
cattle that may be introduced with
perfect safety so far as tuberculosis is
concerned. In addition 70 the ac-
