WEATHER AND CROP
REPORT MADE PUBLIC

The weather and crop report for
the week ending December 8, 1919
follows:
Temperature.
The temperature averaged s to
10 degrees above the normal, although
the weather was moderately cool on
the and 5 and light frost was re-
ported from the interior-northwest.
Precipitation.
Light rain occurred locally in the
peninsula and in the extreme north
and west, but dry weather was the
rule throughout the section. Rain is
needed over all divisions
Condition of Crops.
The weather was too warm and dry
for seeding, termination, and growth
of all crops on high lands; and while
conditions We're favorable on low lands.
rain is needed generally. Cabbage
lettuce, Strawberries, tomatoes, pep
perS, and other truck are in fair con-
dition, but growth is retarded by I'M
seasonably high temperatures and in
sufficient moisture. Syrup making
continues in the north and west, and
some cane is being planted for the
1920 crop. Citrus fruits are maturing
active; complaints of dropping are
less general. Ranges continue in fair
to good condition, as there has been
no frost to damage grasses. Moderate
general rains and colder weather are
needed over all divisions.

Of the credit Of the exhibit is DUE and the farmers
who contributed to the exhibit which was taken
to Jacksonville deserve every possible support
One thing which makes the success of the county
exhibit at the state fair particularly notable, is that
Escambia county commissioners appropriated q very
small sum towards the success of this exhibit
against thousands of dollars which were appropri-
ated by number OF other Florida counties. When
it is remembered that one appropriation through
county and private subscription was nearly two
thousand dollars and several other counties about
thousand, it is easily seen that Escambia well
deserved all the honors that came to her. and which
solid merit
The Journal would suggest that there have been
two failures Of the people West Florida in regard
to the fair is that sufficient financial support
has not been given the Escambia county fair, and
another is that the state fair association has failed
to render unto Caesar that which due in the pub
licy sent out which has failed to mention this
ton Of the state in any way commensurate with its

James B. Perkins must have been a

be excused) a nice, great big boy,

nifty but speaks well for his age and
character.

began as a young man in the dry
goods business In his home town, Elk
ton, and remained in the business for
about fifteen years. But he liked the
out-of- doors, and went into the in
surance business to get away from the
office, and incidentally to help the
poor.
When he came to Pensacola in 1906
he went into the real estate business
with L. S. Brown and Co. He was also
in charge of the real estate department
of the Pensacola Banking and Trust
company.
Then he went to Texas. He stayed
from September to Christmas and got
homesick for the bay and came back.
For about four years the laundry bust
ness engrossed his attention, and then
he became United States marshal, ap-
pointed during President Wilson's first
term. His terms have been active,
though, he says, not thrilling.

The journal does not seek to claim for West Flor

the state papers fail to be impressed with the

sent out through the state, presumably from the
state fair committee, have been most meagre.
The Journal has carried news stories and several
editorials calling attention to the fact that Escambia

mention of the honors which have Escambia.
through the state fair.
The Journal does not believe that this was inten-
tional it was probably due to the fact that South
Florida has been interested in the development
of West Florida and has not considered the WIN
ming of the premium at the state fair of sufficient
importance to deserve honorable mention in their
columns.

FOR PENSACOLA DEVELOPMENT

The Chamber of Commerce the Rotary club and
the Kwanis club which have been zealously work
ing the interest Of this port have been given the
assurance of the two Florida senator's and Con-
gresham j. H. Smithwick, that the harbor Of PEN
sacola will attention which guarantees that
its present splendid record will be maintained
Through the active interest of Senator Duncan u
Fletcher Senator Park Trammel and Congressman
Smthwick the assurance has been given Pensacola
that, following the completion OF the work now
under way at ST. Andrews, that the dredge Caucus
will be ordered to Pensacola to dredge the channel
to an even greater depth than 1t now has-which is
the deepest south of Newport News.
Pensacola now has thirty-three feet Of water over
the bar at mean low tide. and accommodate ves
sells of the deepest draught and most modern type,
and the government recognizing its great importance
as port particularly at this time. when this coun-
try is reaching out after world trade has sgnified

such Improvements as will its continuance
the greatest port on the gulf.
Tampa. Mobile, New Orleans ST. Andrews Bay and
other ports are receiving national aid. Pensacola
does not need the number OF improvements that other
ports of the south are receiving. but it is
to maintain the depth of the channel. and to that
end the Caucus will ordered here, after its work
at ST. Andrews which will be at the end OF three
months possibly earlier.
The United States navy has now afloat some of
the mammoth vessels of the world and there is not
one great ships which is too large to enter
this harbor. The government intends to make as
surance douby sure. and to keep the channel clear
in order that there may be no naval vessel and no
merchant ship that sails the seas. which may not
enter the port of Pensacola.
The government does this at the united solicitation
Of the three civic organizations Of Pensacola pre-
sented by the representatives from Florida and the
congressman from the third district But most par
ticuary, the government is interested, because men
who are familiar with the ports Of the country rec
ognize in the superior advantages offered here,
of this country's most valuable assets.
With the country looking towards Latn-America
as an outlet for commerce, and with Pensacola Of
fering the shortest route. because OF its location
practically the open sea, contrasted with the
long distance Of Mobile and New Orleans from the
gulf the value of this port to the commerce Of the
world will increase in the ratio in which 1t is
utilized The ordering of the Caucus to Pensacola,
means acknowledgment of the United States govern
ment of the need Of this port, and the necessity Of
keeping it up to its highest standard Of efficiency.

The State Convention and the Press

When the Tribune started the movement for con-
vention OF democrats in Florida prior to the launch
ing of the 1920 campaign there was hardly q paper
in the state that had the nerve to come out and
back up the suggestion. The Tribunes editorials
showing the reasons for convention, and showing
how it could be accomplished, seemed for some time
to do nothing but draw the fire Of those afraid to
declare an issue between democracy and the bolshe-
vsm in control Of the state, lest worse thing
come upon u.s. But time passed other papers be-
gan to it possible. needed, and could be

1.-The Journal has been in favor Of the state demo-
cratic convention since it first proposed In the
old days when democrat was Southerner and all
the republicans were north of the Mason and Dixon
line there not the need for party conference that
the state faces today.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
The farm bureau in Columbia cOun-
ty, Connecticut discovered through its
agricultural survey last March that the
spring planting of small grains would
be greater than usual, but it was found
also that the town of Columbia owned
no threshing machine. AT a meeting
of farmers called by the county agent
a committee was appointed to induce,
If possible, a man to buy threshing
machine and do the work. A man was
lOund. He bought a new machine and
declared himself ready to begin. The
farmers agreed to let him thresh all
their grain at cents a bushel, the
farmers furnishing power. The ma
chine followed an itinerary mapped
out by the farmers committee, instead
of visiting farms at random, as has
been the custom in that state. Grain
was threshed much more quickly AID
at a cost much less than heretofore.
This plan is thought to be a good ex-
ample Of efficient cooperation.
