JORDAN ISSUES
 ANOTHER APPEAL
WANTS sPor HOLDERS NOT TO SELL UNTIL THEY CAN GET IS CENTS PER POUND FOR THEIR COTTON.

President Harvie Jordan of the South ern Cotton association has issued another appeal to spot holders not to sell cotton until they can obtain 10 cents for it. Copies of the address were received yes terday in Birmingham and they are be- ing sent to the cotton men all over the state.
 Following is the appeal:
 About the middle of last November the Southern Cotton association advised all spot holders to demand 10 cents per pound, basis middling. for the balance of the unsold portion of the present crop and pledges were asked for ninety days The mammoth cotton convention held at New Orleans January 11-1S, 1906, passed a resolution unanimously endorsing the holding movement for 15 cents and advo- cated the continued holding of the unsold portion of the crop for that price inde- pendent of the 90-day pledgng. The eX- ecutive committee of the association sub sequently endorsed the action of the con- vention and all spot holders were earnest ly asked to stand firm until maximum price of 15 cents was offered. Remem- Der one year ago cotton sold at [ cents per pound in February and advanced to over 10 cents in July in the face of 140O0, 900 bale crop. This year the crop is S,500 GOO bales less. Consumption is far greater this year than last, and the prices of all lines of cotton goods abnormally high If the small balance of the cotton now held is sold for 15 cents, the whole crop will not average over llKs cents per pound Receipts will soon drop off heav- fly and stronger market will be had.
 Do not rush your cotton on the mar ket, but hold it and win out in the great struggle that is on between the spot holders on the one side and speculators' spinners and buyers on the other"

A DIFFERENCE
 IN LUNGS.

In the Edinburgh Uni versity three human lungs lie side by side. One is of an Eskimo and is snow white. In life, this would be ruddy with rich blood. Another is that of a coal-miner and is black. The other is of a town dweller and is a dirty slate gray,.as are the lungs of most city residents. That's why consumption thrives in cities.
 One reason why Scott's Emulsion does so much to keep down consumption is because 1t helps to keep the lungs clean and supplies them with rich, red blood. It makes the lungs germ-re- sisting. If the body is run down and health is at a low ebb Scott's Emulsion will build. it up quickly and per. manently.

EXERCISES HELD
 AT THE SCHOOLS
THE REV. A. J. DICKINSON SPOKE YESTERDAY AT THE WASHING TON BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.

The birthday of George Washington was appropriately celebrated yesterday in the public schools. Short programmes were rendered and dismissal took place earlier than usual.
 At the High school the Rev. Dr. A. J. Dickinson, pastor of the First Baptist church, made an interesting address on Washington Miss Edna Miles read paper on "Washngton's Real Birthday" and Miss Clara Seholder read an essay on Washlngtons tomb. James Mont gomery rendered recitation on the character of Washington
 Dr. Dickinson in the course of his re- marks said that all great men were in danger of being made gods after their death. He said that Augustus Caesar was not too great to escape experiencing this danger. and that soon after Wash ington's death an effort was made to make a demigod of him. The effort was thwarted. the speaker said by the let ters of Washington.
 Dr. Dickinson called attention to the fact that Washington did not consider himself so high above other men that he could not stay up the greater portion of the night dancing; that he liked a cup of red wine and a good dinner. He also said that the tax records show that '1t seemeth that George Washington dis llketh to pay hs tax
 The speaker said that while Washing ton was not better man than Robert D. Lee, he was a splendid ruler of men both in war and in peace and that meth- ods that he had started were still in force. Dr. Dickinson was heartily ap- nlanded

MACADAM ROADS IN
 EXCELLENT SHAPE Are in Better Condition Than
 Ever Before 300 MILES ARE IMPROVED County Gangs Will Commence on the Dirt Roads April and Will Re-
 pair Them as Rapidly .
 as Possible.
300 MILES ARE IMPROVED

The macadam roads of Jefferson county are in better condition now than they have ever been before. according to mem- bers of the county board of revenue.
 For the past five or six months the entire county road force has been re- pairing and improving the 300 miles of macadam road
 About April 1 workmen will commence repairing and improving the dirt roads of the county, of which there are about 400 miles. This work will continue through the summer months, and at the beginning of next fall the macadam roads will again receive attention.
 Cross Country Roads.
 There are, it is said, only few small patches of the macadam ways to be re- paired now, and these are chiefly cross country roads which are not as important as the main thoroughfares. It will re- quire only two or three weeks to put them in as good condition as the other roads.
 At present there are IS groups of men at work on the county roads, Each of these groups under foreman, has a certain section of the macadam roads of the county to repair, and they are busy every day. The sections consist of from six to ten men each and from two to four teams
 The county has in all about 15O men at work on the roads and about 50 teams. When the macsdam roads are completed the force will be put to work on the dirt roads.
 The money for the dirt roads is not available until April 1 and that for the macadam roads is handed to the board of revenue in the fall. The annual amount collected for the roads is about $SO,OO0 of which s12.00o goes to pay the interest on the bonds issued for road improve ments This interest money comes out of the appropriation for the macadam roads,
 McGeever Explains.
 Hugh McGeever one of the members of the board, yesterday explained that the work on the macadam roads had to be done in the winter when rains are frequent. He said that if the work was done in the summer time the chert and limestone would be ground lnto--a powder and blown away by the wind! In the winter when the material is laid the rain moistens it and serves to pack It, making it solid
 The board of revenue is building some additional macadam roads in the county The Montevallo road is being extended about two miles up Shades mountain and q part of the force Is at work on this road The Avenue road has been ex- tended to Emwood cemetery and to Tus- ca1oosa avenue.
