PALMER Wins
Is TO | SCORE

DeFuniak Springs. April 3.-Palmer
college defeated the Pensacola team
here today in a one sided game by a
score of 13 to 1. Pensacola failed to
put as strong a team on the field to-
day as she had on Monday when they
defeated Palmer. Palmer went on a
batting rampage today and the game
looked like a Slaughter of the in
nocents" to the large crowd who had
come out to see a battle royal between
their local favorites and the team who
had defeated them on Monday.
Palmer college will play the Uni
versity of Florida here on Friday and
Saturday, April 9th and 10th. The
games between these teams in former
years have been real ball games. and
the fans are promised a treat when
they meet next week.
The local management is making
arrangements to accommodate the
largest crowd ever handled on the To-
cal grounds. A number of people from
all the neighboring towns have signi-
fled their intention to attend the base
ball classic of this section, and bust
ness in DeFuniak will be at a stand
still during the games. A single game
will be played on Friday and the dou-
ble-header will be played on Saturday,
the first game of the double bill being
called at p. m.
The university has a large number
of alumni in West Florida who will
attend in force to root for their Alma
Mater.

FOREST FIRES
DESTROY Soil
ALTHOUGH FLORIDA HAS Es-
CAPPED GREAT cONFLAGRA-
TIONS LITTLE FIRES ARE CON-
STANTLY BURNING.

One cannot travel very far by auto
or rail in Florida without seeing a fire
in the timber, or at least the black
ened surface of stumps and trees.
Fires burn the soil and soil making
material as well as building material,
says the State Marketing Bureau.
With every fire the crop producing
value OF the land shrinks and shrinxs.
The situation in the forested states
of the north and west has become so
serious that most of them have fire
wardens. In many localities on land
that was solid forest a quarter of a
century ago there is no wood for
building fencing or fuel. Telephone
poles and railroad ties are getting
scarce and material to make paper
and the myriad other things needed in
the home, on the farm and in the
factory, the basis of which is wood.
Fortunately, Florida has escaped
from having forest fires - historic
ones--like those that have swept
through Minnesota, Wisconsin, Mich
igan and other states where a single
fire has destroyed thousands of lives
and millions of dollars worth of prop
erty, but little fires are constantly
burning, and in the aggreage doing
vast damage. not only TO the growing
trees, but to the soil This means
that every such acre must remain
unproductive for a long time, and
more taxes on what is left and costs
for things that one must buy. This
means too that forest litter and humus
has gone up in smoke and artificial
and costly fertilizer will be required
IL the land is ever redeemed.
IT would estimate" says Professor
Mosier- of Illinois, the author of a
text book on soils, that where fires
have not occurred in forests for many
years under late state conditions,
there would be from 100000 to 100000
hounds of organic matter in the sur
face two inches of soil or from 100 to
125 tons an acre. Probably at least
a quarter of this is active matter.
