CIVIL SERVICE BY FORCE
Atlanta Police Board Creates Senaa
ton by Overriding City Attorney
and General Council.

The city of Atlanta may have two
complete police departments at 10
distant day, and unless all signs fail
there will be q row over the police
force such as will make all previous
differences that have existed between
board members sink into insignifl-
canoe.
With a suddenness and quietness
that took all by surprise, the police
beard met Monday morning and de-
clared civil service in effect.
After accepting the designations Of
the policemen who had decided to re-
sign about three or four months ago,
when civil service was first talked Of,
the six members reelected the officers
Just as they had stood. The fire bell
rang riot call, the members of the
force assembled at the barracks and
were all sworn in by Chairman Nun
na!ly.
The important question is: Will the
action of the six members stand? The
city attorney has declared that such
action could not be legal; a majority
OF the council, it is said, have agreed
with the city attorney.
There is to be a fight-a legal and
q political fight-such as Atlanta has
rot been a party to for many years,
and which will, with all it's record for
turbulent times, the police board has
rever before encountered.
City Attorney Mayson, when inform
ed of the action Of the police
board in undertaking to apply civil
service to portion Of the police
force, re-afirmed his opinion that
civil service could not be put into ef-
feet in the department prior to April,
1907, if any substantial number OF
men declined to resign.
st cannot add anything to my opln-
ion which has been given, repeatedly,
said Mr.. Mayson. "That opinion IS
that under the charter amendment
passed by the legislature civil serv'
ice could cnly be put into effect in
the police department before April,
1907, by the chief, officers and men OF
the department resigning and being
reelected on civil service basis.
have held that the refusal Of any SUBJ
stansial number of men to resign
would make it impossible to put civil
service into effect prior to April, 1907
This opinion was upheld by city coun'
Gil in the ordinance adopted by II al
its meeting last week when the coun'
Gil struck out the clause in the ordl'
nance which sought to apply civil SER
vice to the present force. My opinion
is the same now as it has always been
and there is nothing else to say.

FREE SEEDS CUT OUT.
House Committee on Agriculture
Strikes Appropriation.

House Committee on Agriculture
Strikes Appropriation.
A Washington special says: Over
the solid opposition Of the southern
members, the house committee on ag-
riculture Wednesday struck from the
sgrlcultural appropriation bill all pro-
vision FOR purchase of seed for free
distribution. This action came as a
climax to a hard fight which south
eru members made to retain the ap-
rropriation on the ground that 1t fur
rished one Of the few direct BENEFITS
the farmers of the country receive
from the government treasury. For
o number of years fight has been
made against this free seed prov1so,
led usually by men representing city
districts, Dut heretofore the agricultu-
1al committee has always included the
item in the appropriation bill and the
opponents have been unable to strike
It out in the house. Now it has been
stricken by the committee. however,
the friends Of the appropriation Will
find it extremely difficult to secure its
insertion when the bill reaches the
house. This year the department OF
agriculture made the usual estimate
o. s252,o0O for the purchase OF seed
fer congressional distribution. The
subcommittee cut this to $242,Oe0 Dy
a vote of 8 to I. The full committee
struck it entirely.

Profits From Turkeys.

The profits on turkey raising depend

% fatten all the turkeys together in the
fall. It is not an easy matter to sep
arate them. There is really no harm
done fattening all together. The COM
mon mistake is continuing to feed more
grain than they need after the market
stock is disposed OF. The proper thing
to do is to make them use up their
extra fat by feeding little grain at this
season.
The young hens are not so apt to be-
come too fat as the one and tWo-year-
old hens. When the farmer is fatfell'
ing hogs in open yards during the WIZ

getting more grain than they need
The turkey hen that is brought through

would be fewer complaints of poor

Keep Live Stock on the Farm.

We will take for example 1G0 acre
farm. which is small enough il it is
to pay both landlord and tenant. I
think a great deal the most satisfac-
tory way for both parties is to go on
equal shares; that is, the landlord -
furnish the farm in good repair, also
the buildings and fences in good shape,
so all kinds of stock can be kept, for
there is where the good, easy money
is for both landlord and tenant. Then
the farm is getting worth more day by
day, by keeping stock and feeding all
the grain and hay. Also the straw
can be used to good advantage rather
than burn it or leave it to plow
around for years.
I own and manage my own farm,
therefore can look at this matter with
out being partial. The tenant should
take the same interest in the farm as
though he owned it. He should devote
all his time to the interests Of the farm.
He should put his spare days, when

and trying to keep the farm and farm
buildings, fences and everything per-
tanning to the farm in as good repair,
or better, than when he came.
Each party furnishes equally of the
farm stock, except the farm horses,
which should belong to the tenant.
All feed that is raised on the farm
should be fed on the farm, and If any
feed is needed it should be bought and
paid for by landlord and tenant equal
". All stock that is sold, the money
should be divided equally. BY so do
ing each party will have an equal in
terest, and the tenant will not be con-
stantly trying to see how much he can
get off Of the landlord and the landlord
trying to see how little he can let his
tenant have. Otherwise in one short
year they are both ready for a change.
which does not pay either party. The
longer tile tenant can stay, the betf-r
it will pay both landlord and tenant.-

MERIDIAN WILL ACCEPT AID.
Suffering in cycIone Swept District

More Than Expected.
No additional bodies had been re-
covered up to Monday night from the
ruins of the buildings wrecked by the
tornado, in Meridian, Miss, but nun
dreds of men were still at WORK
searching for missing persons. Inc
suffering mas been found to be greater
among the poorer people than hao
been at first supposed. Several thot
sand carpenters and others went 20
work Monday morning, rebuilding and
repairing the destroyed districts. Ad'
ditional convicts have been requested
from Governor Vardaman to aid ID
the work of clearing away the deDrls.
The general relief committee mas
finally resolved to accept any contrl-
buttons from whatever source, the ae'
velopments being such that aid Will
OF necessity be required. SeVera'
thousand dollars were received 1rom
outside sources Monday morning ano
added to the general relief fund. Num-
erous additional injured have been dis
covered, but none are expected to die
Eighteen bodies have been taken &c

The Stalled Cow.

Somehow many dairymen have
reading of dairy farms where the COWS
are stall-fed the year round. 1t by no
means is intended that the COWS shall
have no outdoor exercise; on the con-
trary, except for COWS that are on
pasture entirely during the summer,
few COWS are more intelligently exer-
cised and proper ventilation furnished
them than stall-fed animals properly
brought up. At regular hours the cows
are turned into commCdious barryards
for air and exercise. During the Win
ter this outdoor exercise is as carefully
looked after is during the summer.
and. in the majority of cases. the cows
occupy only sleeping hours and milking
hours in their separate stalls. the bal
ance of the time being spent in large
sheds.
Don't be afraid Of the fresh air for
your animals during the winter; see
that they have all the outdoor exercise
the weather will permit, but more than
all, see that the stables are properly
ventilated and aired. There are num-
Der of devices for this purpose, and
one of the best of them is the Win
dow frame covered with muslin.
Remember that close confinement
and foul air predispose the COW to
tuberculosis, and that fresh air and
plenty of it will enable her to do her
share. not only as milk producer,
but as a mother.-Indianapolis News.

THE SAME OLD FIGHT.
Opposition Again Develops Among
Northern Conaressmen Against
Bonus for South's Fast Mail.

Report is current that the special
appropriation or honus offered by the
government fol the running OF the
fast mail train to the south, would
lave opposition when the subject is
E,ought up in congress. Many north
ern republicans in congress are back
O; this opposition and while they want
to cut OUT the fast mail service to
the south, they want to take the money
saved in this way and make it pcs
s;bie for more fast trains to the west.
It was also learned that some Of the
southern members of congress nad
been enlisted by the opposition for
the doing away with the fast mail
train to the south, although they were
rot made aware that the money saved
in this way would be used for the
running of fast trains 10 the west.
So far as the railroads are concern
Cd, officials state that while the bo-
nus for this fast service is s200,ooD,
the railroads hardly more than pay
exnenses because Of the heavy fines
which are imposed whenever this fast
train, No. 81, is late. These heavy
fines. together with the great cost of
maintaining ali average speed OF 81
miles and running at times up TO 50
and more miles an hour, eats up this
s2O0.0c0 bonus. while as the fast mail
has the right of way Of all other
trains, regular passenger trains have
t. be sidetcached and held, and in this
way the regular schedules are inter-
fered with and the railroads lose.
But whether the railroads gain or
lose, there is no doubt about the peo-
Die of the south winning by this fast
mail train, which has done much for
developing the business interests OF
the south, and to which the people
have become so accustomed that the
r,ater of withdrawing it would mean a
terrible blow ut the commercial cir
cles of all Dixie. For New Orleans
this fost mail train means the saving
OF fwenty-four hours, and for other
cities to the north of New Orleans
in this same proportion.
Besides this matter. OF the mail,
very many southerners would not oe
able to get their morning papers pub
lished in southern cities until in the
afternoon or the next day. The saw
ing of twenty-four hours in the mat
ter, of mail orders IN these present
conditions means much to almost ev-
ery line Of business. It means that
orders can be received and sent ouS
the same Cay, while with the with
diawal of the Midnight MAIL" as the
train is known, would make this I'M
possible, ard would in most cases
mean delay of two days to the per-
son sending in the maif order. AS It
is the rapidity with which these mail
orders may be sent to business houses
and filled is responsible for the tre-
mendeus growth of this just kind OF
business, the injury which would re-
suit in the taking off of the fast mall
would be hard to even estimate.

Every Farm Should Have q Tool Sher

Farmer.
Every Farm Should Have Tool Sien.
One of the greatest expenses in run
ming a farm is the cost of farm ma
chinery. Money saved is money
earned" is a true saying. and l know
Of no better way in which to cut down
the expenses Of farming than to know
how to manage and care for farm ma
chinery. .:5..s.-- - ~ }I':!
Every farm should have at least one
shed in which to place machinery. This
shed should be a good substantial one,
with a good roof and tight fitting doors
to keep out all fowls and stock. A
piece Of machinery should never be
taken from this shed until ready for
use. and should be returned as soon
as its work is accomplished. In this
way tool will last much longer and
do the work much better, thus saving
the farmer time and money. Just be-
fore a piece Of machinery is to be used
in the field it should be looked over
With great care. Every part should
receive careful attention, and should
be in proper condition to accomplish its
work. All bolts should be kept tight,
and nothing should be allowed to run
that is not in proper condition. This
careful examination beforehand often
saves a great amount of time and labor
in after days. Besides, it makes the
work much more pleasant.
While in use in the field the bearings
on farm machinery should be kept we'll
oiled. This will lessen the draft, and
the machine will last much longer. It
is much cheaper to buy oil than ma
chinery.
Binders, and all other machinery that
is complicated in construction. should
be carefully examined at least twice
day when in use. once in the morn
ing before work begins and then again
at noon. Every part should be exam
ined very carefully. This often pre-
vents serious trouble and delay. when
the grain is ripe and wages high.
When the farmer is through using a
piece of machinery, it should be taken
to the shed. Before storing away for
the season all dirt should be removed
and the parts most likely to rust should
be creased with axle grease or painted
with oil. Should any part be broken
or damaged, it should be repaired at
once. Every farmer should be provid-
ed with good paint and paint brush. so
that he may repaint his machinery.
when the paint begins to come of.
Buy good, substantial machinery in the
first place; keep it we'll painted, well
oiled when in use, and we'll housed
when not, and you are on the road to-
wards successful farming.-A Farmer
in the Indiana Farmer.
