Dale Farmers.
 Ozark. Dec. 2.-(Specal.)-The high prices paid for cotton this season have drawn 1t out of the hands of the producer in this section about as fast as 1t could be gotten ready for the market and but little remains to come in sight. In spite of this fact the receipts at Ozark are not up to what they were last year. Tha books at the various warehouses show that up to and including November 30, this year. Ozark has received 7.2i2 bales: at the same time last year 1t had received 7S76. The amount of cotton in storage is $50 of which 46O has been sold leaving 400 bales to the credit of ''in sight" account.
 As to the crop in general some of the farmers have made as much as they did last near but many have not. J. c. Ho.- man made go bales M L. Metcalf. 2-5; Judge W. W.

Mir. Lane also says:
 From what information have received am inclined to think that Alabama has a fixed determination to have an exhibit and creditable exhibit. but it will re- uuire hard work upon myself and upon the part of others who are laporing with me in this behalf. As to the amount I will reasonably expect from Dallas Coun- ty, I can hardly make an estimate. can only say that Madison County, which Is represented to have about the same wealth and population, will in my judg- ment contribute $750.
 This sum Will come from the city of Huntsville. the county of Madison, the Chamber of Commerce and the pubic spirited individuals and private corpora tons So far the city and county have made no contributions. but I am waiting for the meeting of the Board of County Commissioners so that I can present the matter and will then take up the others in the order have above named
 T trust that Dallas and Selma will dis tinguish herself and that I will have the pleasure of meeting you at an early date. Thanking you for your promptness, l arn. with respect, "Charles P. Lane, President Alabama Worlds Fair Asso- ciation."

New York. Nov. 1s-"It has been
thought proper in an official report, 10
refer TO the army transport secnce as
"A most costly luxury" says c. Il. Hum
phrey. quartermaster general OF the army.
In his annual report 10 The secretary OF
war. which was issued today. II 10 not
know in what respect the service can
be looked upon as a luxury, unless reier-
ence is made to the excsllence of the
en,'gted mems accommodates. IL IL be
luxury TO furnish our enlisted men with
the class Of accommodations now pro sfded
on all OF the army transports, then
favor the continuance OF that luxury.
"1n my opinion, the transport service
needs no defence whatever. and no ex-
cuse is offered for II by the department
charged with its operation. I, for one,
do not claim that there is any Inexcrable
military necessity for Its continuance, but
l submit that the service is unluestion-
ably very valuable and economical mill
tary convenience"
The relative costs OF transportation by
the government and by contract are
shown I'm the report. The total differ
ence In favor OF transport service for a
year Is placed at $2,24s,43s in tho report.
Inter-island transportation service for
the year cost S93s. COS in the Philippine
archipelago. while the cost OF trans
porting the same number OF passengers
and animals and the same amount of
freight and mail under the prevailing
tariH rates OF the Philippine steamship
companies the report says would have
been $l,02I977.
During the year 3, $50 passengers were
carried by the transport service between
the United States. the philippine Islands,
Hawaiian Islands and Alaska.
Recommendation rs made that Honolulu
be declared regular port of call for all
transports going 10 and returning from
the Philippines. On account Of the
inability OF the department to realize
anywhere near the value OF transports
when offered for sale will be hauled up
when not needed.
To keep the loss down to the minimum
I'm changing from the old to the new
army uniform. II has been decided that
issues OF the new uniform shall com
mence with organizations returning from

Nothing Strength Like Spring
Catarrf1--Sorng Fever is Spring CatarrI1.
Nervous PrOSfrafiOn.

Thousands of cases might be quoted in
which Peruna has been used to rescue
people from the perdition of deranged
nerves, and put them on the good. solid
foundation of health. The County Audi
tor of Erie County, New York, Hon. John
w. Nef, in recent letter written at
Buffalo, New York, stated Il was per-
suaded by friend to try bottle of your
great nerve tonic, Peruna, and the results
we're SO gratifying that l am more than
pleased to recommend it.
A Spring Tonic.
Almost everybody needs tonic in the
spring Something to brace the nerves.
invigorate the brain and cleanse the blood.
That Peruna will do this is beyond all
question. Everyone who has tried it has
had the same experience as Mrs. D. W..
Undertake, of Lynchburg, Va, who in a
recent letter, made use of the following
words: Il always take dose of Peruna
after business hours, as it is a great thing
for the nerves. There is no better spring
tonic, and have used about all of them. "
Cafarrh in Spring.
The spring is the best time to treat ca
tarrh. Nature renews herself every spring.
Inc system is reJuVenated by spring
weather. This renders medicines more
effective A short course of Peruna assist
ed by the balmy air of spring, will cure DID,
stubborn cases of catarrh that have resisted
treatment for years. Everybody should
have copy of DR.. Hartman's latest book
on catarrh. Address the Peruna Medicine
