Poultry Growing North and West.
r. f. McGREw.

The chief center of poultry growing
upon the farms and by small establish
ments devoted exclusively to the pro-
ducing of eggs and poultry for market,
is located in that portion of the coun-
try now called the North and West, in
which we must include Missouri, Kan
sas and the great Northwest.
1t is not usually known that Mis-
souri,, Iowa and Kansas are the great
est producers of poultry of all kinds,
including waterfowl, and that Michi-
gan and Wisconsin are becoming the
greatest of all goose-prOducing sections
of the country.
Upon the vast wheat fields of the
Northwest are grown thousands upon
thousands of young fowls that are
hatched and cared for with reference
to having them of the proper size for
ranging over the wheat fields as soon
as the harvest is in, and are later
gathered up by the pur hasers of the
great poultry killing establishments of
Kansas City and other centers. These
young fowls are taken away and
shipped to the killing rlaces prior to
the beginning of the cold rigid weather

HARVIE JORDAN IS AGAIN
 AFTER CENSUS BUREAU

of bales and estimated amount of cotton to be ginned after January b. obtained in your recent ginners' report, as this is public information, kindly wire me today the result of the estimates as shown
 Tn reply to the above MT. North sent the following
 <" Average bale weights will be made public as soon as can be compiled. Es- timated amounts to be ginned were op- tained and only approximately, to enable census office to determine what counties must again be eanvassed for final report and not for public use Will be published if Congress directs it. Resolution to that effect introduced in House today.
 NORTH, Director.
 President Jordan says that 470ooo bales of the crop were ginned prior to Septem- Der 1 and were counted in the commercial crop of 19O4-05, but have been made a part of the census bureau report of 9'99S- III. Deduct the 470,0OO bales from the published total of 9.99S,111, leaves 9,68, Ill to be counted in the crop of 1905-06. Add to this 150,0O0 bales and there still re- mains a crop under 100000 bales. He says that wide investigation shows that spot holders are not selling their cot ton and that practically there Is no cotton for sale in the face of the present de- pression.

"The Isle of spice."

.'The Isle of Spice a successful musi- cal extravaganza, will play at the Jeffer- son theatre this afternoon and tonight. In speaking of recent performance of the piece, the Atlanta Constitution said:
 The sparkling wit of the "Isle of Spice which ripples through from curtain to curtain, is the pleasantest feature of this surprisingly clever musical mixture. 1t fairly bubbles forth from the king and Micky O'Grady, and when it is known that the latter is impersonated by Her bert Cawthorne no surprise is necessary.
 The 'Isle of Spice" is the cleverest musical-comic production of the season. the best, at least that the Grand has seen, and while the piece would undoubt- edly stand severer comparison and come out on top. the veil is drawn at this point from a sense of local pride. There is consolation in the fact, though, that the best part of the season is to come, and the 'Isle of Spice" is an excellent start for the second half
 The chorus, consisting of the ladies from whom the king picks his 0 e, is fully up to the New York standard, and aside from the wit of tle king and Micky O'Grady, this cluster of young women is the attraction of the performance. The costumes and stage effects are worthy of more than passing mention, as is Harry Watson fin the role of Slusby Mac inaw, the fearful companion of Micl1y.

Some thirty-five men were in line. including Capt. w. A. Collier and Lieuts. J. F. Walker and E. F. Hagler The company was found to be in excellent condition with the exception of supplies, which have been ordered for some time, and which were to have been here before the inspection took place. General Brandon has already visited some sixteen companies and has yet some thirty-five more to inspect. Major Sickles and General Brandon left this morning for other points in the state where smi- lar inspections will be held.
 There should be something like twenty three hundred voters in this county who pay poll tax, and from the looks of the tax books 1t seems that at the comnig election there will be only some thirteen hundred who will be able to vote Only Alabama stock by the comptroller gen Tomorrow IS the last day and those who are officeseekers arc making an earnest canvas among their friends Hest they forget

She was reared here and graduated at the Tuscaloosa Female college. though for the past two years she has made her home in Birming- ham, where she has been prominently connected with Massey's Business college.

 Tt is upward of twenty years since I was actively in your midst, and it is with pleasant reflections that I look back to those days. I once knew the New York legislature, but time has wrought many changes and l now find myself looking into faces almost entirely new. Although l now owe allegiance to another state, I am still deeply interested in New York and the work of it's legislative body. I am confident that the legislation which you will enact at this session will not only be beneficial to the state of New York, but will have a salient effect throughout the country. This is all have to say, except to say look forward to hand to hand shake with every member of this body" (Applause).
 MT Cleveland took his position in the center aisle of the house and each of the senators in turn was presented by Lieu tenant Governor Bruce
 Nothing eventful occurred until Sena- tor Grady extended his hand, which MT. Cleveland warmly grasped The specta- tors recalling former strenuous differences between the two, broke into hearty cheers and applause

 The action of Director North of the census bureau in failing to make public all the information he secured from the ginners January Is and his persistent re- fusal to do so.

SLUMP IN STOCKS.
Break in Reading Has an Immediate
 Effect on Market.

New York. January SO--A break in Reading in the late stock market today had some unsettling effect again in stocks and caused prices to sell off after re- peated residence to depression during the early part of the day. The supporting or ders which had been in evidence early in the day seemed to be discontinued It was reported that large speculative interests after raiding the market yesterday, had covered short contracts this morning and renewed an attack on the market in the latter part of the day. Colorado Fuel broke points and Amalgamated Copper 2Is points. Some of the leading railroad stocks lost a point or more but the stocks mentioned were especially vulner- able, by reason of the extended long ac- count built up in them during a prolong- ed speculation
 The action of the market was unaccom- panied by any news.
 With the declining tendency establish ed. speculative holdings were unloaded in enormous amounts. Active stocks were generally a point or more below last night The break in Reading ran to 5Is. A rush to cover by the shorts caused a sharp rally in the market
