At the meeting held the city hall Monday m

the people
The accomplishments of a few farmers were taken
as augury of what might be brought about in this
section with the application of modern scientific
principles of agriculture.
IL was conclusvely demonstrated that Escambia
county is of the best farming sections in the
South. when Escambia carried off premium
at the state fair. and received blue ribbons
for individual exhibits than other county.
Individual prizes at a fair for the
advertisement of county than all the other prem
iurns combined, for the reason that the individual
prizes the only real indication of the county as
a whole. Special premiums and community exhibits
are splendid advertisements of certain sections.
but the individual prize means the number of in
dividual farmers who have made good-and the
number of individual crops grown in the county
At the state fair last year Escambia for
tunate in attracting the attention of from
all over the United States who met in that city
at great national convention. These men. repre-
sentative of every state in the union, viewed the
exhibits from this county and amazed, only
at the splendid quality the products but at the
wonderful variety assembled
When the centennial is held in Pensacola these
farmers, members of the national association,
others from all over the world interested agri-
culture and live stock, will visit this city will
view the exhibits brought together here. They will
find here not only the greatest port in the world,

But the rules had been made rather with reference
to fruit exposition. another county carried off

But it demonstrated that Escambia county
products were the best in the state and of the
widest variety. when measured by agricultural and
live stock standards.
The centennial will be great thing for the de-

Record which fought the peace treaty and bit

dent Wilson has taken exception to the utterances
of Senator Knox, and comments this blunder
with severity. The Record says:

Nations. he sought TO create a maudn senti-
mentality for a nation of murderers and hooters

under a trerific load of indebtedness which bears
heavily upon every and woman earth,

create the impression that Germany had been
harshy dealt with.
