EFFECT OF COLD STORAGE.
pr. Wiley VIII Experiment With 15O
 Br0iIers.

washing gton, July 3.-Dr. H. W. Wi ley, Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry of the Department of Agriculture, today had put into cold storage 150 broilers which is the first step toward an in- vestigation of the effect of cold storage on food products. Half of the brojl- CTS were drawn and half undrawn. They will be taken out from time to time within the next five or six months, cooked and tested
 The Department has completed an investigation of the effect of freezing upon fruit. It has been disclosed that cold storage continues to improve all kinds of fruit for the first four or five months but when 1t reaches perfection 1t deteriorates rapidly. Dr. Wiley be- lieves he can secure just as accurate information regarding meat and all other food products.
 The investigation was provided for under the last agrie ultural appropria- tion bill.
 The Departments of Agriculture, Treasury and Commerce and Labor will soon name representatives to draft reg ulations for the operation of the pure food law which will go into effect Jan uary 1 next. An appropriation for its enforcement will be asked when Con gress convenes next December.

of permanency in membership and ad- equate financial resources. A club may send up an entirely different delegation this year from the one last year, changing entirely again next year, so that all the delegates are without continuous knowledge of the increasing scope and purpose of the organization or experience in its past lines of work. To obviate this diff culty a plan was adopted at the last meeting of the organization providing for individual or active memberships, in addition to the sustaining or club memberships. This will give per- manent list of individual members for continuous work upon standing com mittees from year to year and at the same time retain the full influence and interest of the various sustaining club members as organized assistants It is estimated conservative1y from the score of clubs identified with the State Association and adding thereto influ- ential individual members in cities where no clubs now exist, that an ac- tive individual membership of at least 500 over the State can be secured which at $5 dues per annum, would represent an income of $2,500 annually to the organization. It is contemplated that this plan will accomplish both a permanently established individual
 
 fund in the treasury for more prac- tical work. Thus the two problems which at present hamper the work of the State Organization are solved by the simple plan of providing for in- dividual memberships.
 Just think of what 1t will mean for Alabama to have the inspiring, mag netic force of over 500 aggressive business men continuously at work all over the State of Alabama in it's inter est, as evidenced by active service up- on some of the following committees: Advertising and Publicity, Forestry, Good Roads, Insurance, Legislation. Manufacturing, Mining, Rivers and Harbors Schools, Transportation, Tax ation. Each club has representation upon every committee so that the com mittees are all well rounded State Or ganizations in themselves and reflect the sentiment and wield the influence of their respective communities.
 Already men of influence all over the State are sending in their appli- cations with check for $5 payable to the secretary and treasurer, L. L. Gil- bert. at Montgomery, and within anoth- CT fortnight the standing committees for the ensuing year will be announced. being selected from this list of mem- bers.
 The next meeting of the State As- sociation will take place in Selma, in May, 1907, but 1t Is more than prob able that just prior to the assembling of the legislature in Montgomery this fall a sen1i-annua1 meeting will be called to shape up such legislation as the business men of the State are most interested in"

CHICAGO PACKERS TO MOVE.

Have Ordered Changes Made
in Present Builings.

Chicago, Ill.,-Rumors to the ef.
feet that new stockyards with Sir
Thomas ]. Upton of London as its
chief hacker is to be established near
Gary, Ind. adjacent to the property
OF the United States Steel corporation,
were in circulation Friday. Several of
the best known real estate men IN
Chicago were named among those said
to be acquiring land for the purpose.
Although the story generally was
discredited among the packers. it was
declared that at least six plants are
TO be removed from Chicago to In
diana. 1t is said the plans include the
digging of a canal to the little Calumet
river for the purpose of carrying of
refuse.
The building commissioner, Peter
Bartzen, and the sanitary commission
er. Perry L. Hedrick, served notice
Friday on the packers to make i'm
provemeuts which it is estimated by
Rartzen will cost close to Sl,o0O.0OO.
Bartzen declared that practically all
the buildings in the stock yards were
erected without city building permits.
He said he will ask the city council
to give him fifteen special inspectors
for term of thirty days. The SAM
tary commissioner said the packers
are willing to adopt all suggestions
made by his department.
Mayor Dunno sent letter to the
Secretary of Agriculture, james Will
son, urging him to give his views in
reference to the joint appointment OF
a committee of high grade pathologists
and experts to pass on the purity of
meats sent out from the stock yards.

SPORTS OF CHILDREN.


Skipping rope is a childish pastime
of ancient origin. In place of r5pe.
vine stripped of leaves was Original
ly used.
The childish amusement q riding a
cane is of great antiquity 1t was
practiced by the children Of Greece
and ancient Rome.
The game of hide and seek is an
other youthful pastime of ancient
origin. 1t came from Europe about
the beginning of the seventeenth CEN
tury.
The spinning of tops. favorite
amusement among children in the
spring, also came from the Greeks.
Records show that this kind of fun
was in vogue at the time of Vergil.
Leap-frog is mentioned in the
works of both Shakespeare and John
son. 1t has been played by chi dren
from early times, and is still a ia
vorite game with boys.
The flying kite derived its name
from its originally being made to re-
semble that species of bird called n
kite. The amusement of kite flying is
about two centuries old in Europe.
Probably it originated in China.
where. so records tell. the practice
of flying kites is very ancient.
