WINTER GARDENS.

Pensacola at present is without any appreciabI
variety of fresh vegetables.
Soon the fall season will be with us. and tn,
farmer who has planned his garden with view
to the in-between season, is the who viii
get the top-notch prices
He who plants for winter as well as summel
trade is the who reaps the real harvest.
The ST. Augustine Record has the following
to say. in regard to winter gardens:
Residents of this city will remember the
scarcity of vegetables early last winter. due t.
neglect of gardens and partly due to weather
conditions. Those who succeeded in bringing
garden into bearing well rewarded as
the exceedingly high prices placed fresh vege-
tables in the class of luxuries.
ITO early winter garden it is
advisable to plant seed beds early in septem-
Der, and the ground should be thoroughly
cleared and fertilized before the plants are
ready for transplanting.
The showers of the past few days have
forced grass and weeds to abnormal growth
and it will be advisable to clean them out of
the garden space as soon as the weather clears.
in order get the ground in condition for
planting the winter garden.
Lettuce, beets mustard, collards cabbage
onion seed caulifower. celery and carrots are
winter vegetables in this zone and even a small
plot of ground will be sufficient admit-of a
variety covering them all. Last winter lettuce
commanded Is cents head due to its scarcity
and 1t may be as high during the coming winter.
SO those who plant lettuce should enough
plants to provide for the needs Of the family
Three four will supply abundance for

gather fresh. crisp vegetables from your own
garden. as they have flavor which the pur-

A WORTH WHILE EXPERIMENT.

President members
of the United States senate, similar to a
prisoner being put through the third degree. and
It would not be surprising If the chief executive
does not sometimes long for the academic cap and
robe As it is with many questions fired
at him. many charges made against him. it
must at last be borne in upon Mr.. Wilson how
very little school-teacher hope know,
and how very much member of the United States
Senate carry his sleeve,-f he happens to
be Republican.
But. in spite OF the rack which the presi-
dent is kept and the seething Of the senate, the
most astute in this country firm in their
belief that the League Of Nations covenant will be
ratified, Mark Sullivan in the pages of Golfers
Magazine has openly ridiculed President Wilson
many times and has taken him to task on many
occasions. But Sullivan is firm in the belief that
the treaty and covenant will be ratified.
Mr.. Sullivan in Europe for two years. in
the employ Of Golfers of the strong Republican
organs and has written strong articles against
the league. When in Washington recently, closely
observing the situation, however. he said:
"The great immediate political be-
fore the country is the League of Nations. The
present debate that subject, with it's great
public meetings and special trains of the best
speakers both sides touring the country is a
most useful and satisfactory event 1t is prob

bate the political advantage is the side of

that Wilson will emerge from 1t, not with

in the direction of bringing about international
peace ard reducing the possibilities of
