pr. Hill of TaIIadega,

Dr. George A. Hill, farmer. physician and public man of Talladega county. is in the city, stopping at the Metropolitan. Said he;
 T am here to see the fair. Went out today and like it wonderfully well. You have a great city here and all Alabam- fans are proud of 1t. :. like to come to Birmingham and take occasion to do so quite often.
 My home and farm are near Sylacau- ga. There the seasons have been un- favorable to cotton and to grain crops this year, and you may say that we are short in our expectations, but not dis couraged. I am sure we will still live, move and have our being, andf that we have the greatest county in the greatest state of the greatest nation on the globe"

Farmers Al the Fair

No matter how many airships sail away, on how many attractions there are on "the Curve,' the fair is pri- marily an effort by and for the farm. CTS of the state. It's main object is, or should be- to promote agriculture, and it should be matter of congrat- uation that the present fair has a leaning in the right direction. The county exhibits are fine. Cullman and Madison have exhibits at the fair grounds that few counties indeed in this country could excel. Each year work should be done to promote ex- hibits equal to those from Cullman and Madison, and the live stock exhibits should each year be improved.
 There is enough at the fair grounds to interest all farmers, and now it is up to the farmers to do their part. They should take an active interest in the fair, and the best way to take an active interest is to come to the fair. It is too late now to send ex- hibits, but it is not too late to take train to the fair. It is of the farmers, by the farmers, for the farm CTS, and every farmer should take an interest in it. The horses and "the Curve" and the politician sare but in cidents. It is the Alabama farmer who caa make or unmake the fair

against negroes and poor white people alone; let all observe it alike"
 Judge Thomas comments the law because 1t will lead to the stocking of our fields and woodlands with game, but he, no doubt, proposes to enforce it simply because it is law of a sovereign state, and the law of sovereign state is to be obeyed ex- cept when it is held up by a federal judge.

ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES

WINTER. And heres a toast to winter, The monarch of the year, Who comes with snows upon his head And in his eye a tear. When gusty winds are blowing And ice enshrouds the trees We soon forget the blossomed spring And all her honey bees. For winter holds a scepter, A magic wand that stirs An eerie melody through tops Of mourning pines and frs And ever at his coming, When the mellow firelght gleams We stroll in fancys golden spell Adown the lane of dreams.
