 "Biff" and his boys may not have to worry about Millsaps and Mississippi A. & M. but the list of ten games also shows Rice Centenary, Arkansas, Vanderbilt South Carolina, Ole Miss, Tu- lane and Tennessee to be met in that order.

William v. Albury VIII
Sponsor Bill 10 Legaize
Sale OF Beer In Florida

William V. Albury, representa-
tive to the legislature of Florida.
will be one of the co-introducers
of the bill to legalize the sale of
beer in the state. This. it is under
stood, will be one of the first
measures introduced at the session
of the body which convenes April
A.
Immediately upon passage of
this measure Mr.. Albury will in
troduce a bill to change the char
ter of the City of Key West, in
order to permit the sale of 3.2
beer and wine in Key West.
This is necessary since Section
IS, Of the city charter of 1919,
prohibits the sale of any malt or
spirituous liquors in Key West.
The prohibitory clause in the Sec
ton exactly conforms to the pro-
visions of the Volstead Act, upon
which it was based, says Mr.. Al
bury.
Another measure that will be
introduced by the representative
from Monroe is to have the board
of administration, instead of pay
ing the interest on bonds, pur-
chase bonds at the market price.
This, he says, will effect annual
reductions of $350,0OO in Monroe
county's bonded Indebtedness.
He will also favor a bill to
exempt all homesteads from taxa
ton. He will assist in sponsoring
a measure making q flat license

a great water-power, forestation
and flood control development, is
one of the most serious sections,
explains Bennett. Fifty per cent
of the land in the valley, he esti-
mates, is too steep or too badly
eroded for cultivation, and UNI
employed labor could be used in
turning this land back into forests
or pasturage.
Forests Retain Water
Forests on the sleeper slopes of
ridges help retain water in the
soil and prevent erosion of the
more level slopes where crops are
planted. When steep slopes are
cultivated the topsoil is quickly
washed away, making the land un-
fit for further. use, or at best,
capable of growing only small
crops.
The increasing amount of
oroded land, from which water
flows more easily and quickly, is
resulting in larger floods than
formerly in streams and causing
them to dry up in summer in
stead of maintaining a uniform
year-round flow.
The "clean-cultivated" crops,
such as corn, cotton and tobacco,
are most favorable to erosion be-
cause there is minimum of plant
material to bind the soil in place
and help it absorb water.

as being against any and all forms
of additional taxation. He does
not believe tht there should be any
increase in taxes of any kind but
that economy in government can
bring about the desired result
without taxation to increase rev.
enue.
Another bill that will be intro
dueed by Mr.. Albury will provide
that in the waters of Monroe
county, catching of stone crabs
and crawfish in traps shall be pro-
hibited.
Almost one hundred jewellers
on the keys have either spoken,
or written, to him on this subject,
showing that these crustaceans.
that are source of income to a
great many people in Florida, are
beings trapped by the tens of thou
sands and should this continue
within three years there win be
but few left in the waters along
the coast, Mr.. Albury says.
Another measure to be intro
duced is one prohibiting the use
of gill nets of less than 81 inch
mesh in Monroe county waters
and another bill prohibiting the
use of purse seines at any time.
Mr.. Albury will leave over the
highway in the morning and join
Mrs. Albury. who is to leave over
the East Coast for Miami this aft
ernoon. After brief stay in Mi
ami they will drive to Tallahas-
see where Mrs. Albury will re.
main for about one week and then
return.

water. About 100000 acres
of farm land have been totally
destroyed by erosion so that they
are useless for growing crops.
Most of this destruction has taken
place in the last SO or so years.
Much valuable work could be
done by unemployed men, Bennett
believes in protecting remaining
good lands from erosion, restoring
partially eroded land to useful
ness, and planting trees or pas
turage grass on lands too badly
eroded for further growing Of
crops. =
Good Land Decreasing
Erosion is steadily decreasing
the amount of good farm land,
says Bennett, and represents a
permanent loss to the farmer.
Low prices for farm products
may some day rise, but rich soil
washed from fields never cen be
replaced!
In some sections of northern
Missouri, in fields planted to corn
year after year, erosion has been
known to wash away in IL years
the rich seven inch-deep topsoil,
leaving only unfertile subsoil be-
low. Nature would require about
5000 years to build back this
seven inches of topsoil.

WASHINGTON, March
80. - President Roosevelt's
plan to put 100000 un-
employed men to work on
prevention of erosion of
farm lands and related re-
forestation and flood con-
troll projects represents an
attack on a farm probiefil
regarded by experts as more
serious than low crop prices.
Erosion, or the washing away
of soil by water, is wasting farm
land in the United States faster
than in any other civilized nation
in recorded history, says H. H.
Bennett, erosion specialist of the
Department of Agriculture.
He estimates that of the $780,
10000 acres of land under cult
