and other points outside the State how the Alabama farmer was discriminated against in the matter of rates. Stock grain, hay and other feed products could be shipped in from distant points for less than they could be carried for short dis tances over the same rails inside the State. This paper which was full of facts and suggestions was listened to with great interest and brought out some spirited discussion upon the subject. By vote of the Association a committee of three was appointed to take up this ques- ton of freight rates and present report with recommendations to the Association and also to bring the matter before. our State Railroad Commission.
 The committee consisting of G. T. Mo Eldery, S. W. Pace and F. A. Bishop, brought in later the following resolu- tions which were unanimously adopted by the Associations:
 "Whereas, we are interested in build- ing up the stock business of Alabama and believe that the railroads are also interested in building up this great in- dustry.
 Therefore be it resolved, That we respectfully ask the railroads of this State to grant the farmers of the State the permission to pass over their lines all pure bred stock for breeding pur-
 
 also that calves be billed at actual weight instead of estimates. Passed"
 The paper by Colonel J. M. Thornton was most carefully prepared and held the strictest attention of all in the hall from beginning to end. The paper by J. D. Foster on the Belgian Hare was pronounced one of the most practical ever heard on this subject. F. G. Matthews on diseases of colts and calves reached the want of every owner of a horse or COW. Simple remedies were given that could be used by any one.
 E. A. Bishop gave some new ideas about the care of the mother pig and her babies, and about the principles that govern the successful raising of hams and bacon.
 Any outline of the papers given would not do justice to the writers or give an adequate idea of the help one could derive from them in every day practice on the farm. MT. w. Storrs, editor and proprietor of The Stockman, De Funiack Spring, Fla, added much to the interest of the meetings by his impromptu, but timely talks upon the subjects presented.
 By unanimous vote of the Association the present officers were asked to continue for the coming year. An urgent invitation was rendered the Association to hold its meeting in Talladega next year as they felt greatly benefited by this years meet ing and believed that large numbers who did not avail themselves of the oppor- tunity of attending this year would dc so next year. The matter was left in the hands of the president and secretary who will consider any other invitations that may be sent them.
 The following resolution was then pass ed:
 Resolved, That the thanks of the Ala bama Live Stock Association are hereby extended to the citizens of Talladega for their hospitality, to the press for it's in- terest and aid and to the county officials for the use of the court house."
 The Association then adjourned.

That is the result of a course of treatment with Scott's Emul- sion. We have special refer ence to persons with weak lungs and sensitive throats.
 Scott's Emulsion does some things better than others. This is one of them. It has a pc culiar action on the throat and lungs which gives them strengthand makes themtough.
 That's how Scott's Emulsion drives out coughs, colds and bronchitis. It keeps them out, too.

CURING A BALKY HORSE.


An expert states that the vice Of
baking in horses is almost invariably
caused by improper breaking and
handling Of the animal while Young.
1t is only high-Strung and iI-tempered
horses that baIk; and these are handled
with more success by humoring and
patience than by severe measures,
which generally make matters worse,
IT is almost impossible to follow rules
in case of this sort. What will sue
coed in one case is useless in another
so that driver must exercise good
judgment-"horse sense"--in handIinp
case. very good treatment is to
watch the animal closely in places
where it would be likely to balk, and
driver should say 'Whoa," then pet
off and loosen or pretend to change
the harness in some way: ast take IN
a foot and tap the shoe with a stone.
Spend few moments leisurely in this
way, and in nine cases out of ten the
animal will forget its inclination to
balk and will go on at the first bid
ding. 1t is also well to give a lump
OF sugar or a handful of oats or an
apple This will always produce bet
ter results than severe measures.
