said Mir. Ward, ito plant their crops with the intention of raising the finest truit and other products of which the state of Alabama is capable, with the idea of letting me secure samples later in the season. . "The State has made an appropriation of $25.000 to cover the expenses Of making an exhibit at Jaimestewn. and charges. and similar expenses, and are providing the space to make the ex- ready secured 2.500 square feet of space, and there Is a possibility of securing more. if 1t Is found necessary.
 Tn addition to these expenses. we will pay for farm products when 1t Is as we do nSs % sse ta the make that sacrifice.
 There is a wonderful opportunity for Alabama in this Exposition. if she will hut seize it. What we need IS to ad. have seen what intensive cultivation will do in the WeslA and if we can se- cure the proper class of citizens here. the wonderfully rich soil of Alabama will accomplish wonders.
 Tt Is entirely feasible for Alabama to double her present cotton croD. anf' that. fhen the world needs the cotton means the doubling of our bank ac> counts. We should turn our atteRtiop more to the waste areas. and the ne glected places in the state, ana devote less attention to the old farms which require constant fertilizing to make them produce
 Mir Ward recently visited number of different places. including Birming- ham, Florence, Sheffield, Huntsville Gadsden, Annistcn and Taliadega, and says that he met with the most promis- ing conditions for good exhibit al Jamestown for Alabama at all of them He has the utmost hopes that Montgom- cry County and other portions Of the State yet to be visited will respond as freely, and make the display one for all Alabamians to look upon with pride.

John B. Ward Talks of
 the Display.
GREAT OPPORTUNITY FoR STATE
Wants Montgomery Farmers to : Help With Produce.
the Mineral, Agricultural and Horticultural, and Timber -- Resources and Manufac-
 tured Products

We are going to have a good ex- hibit from Alabama, and we want Montgomery to help. We feel that we can secure a fine exhibit of farm products from Montgomery county and we want the farmers, IS we'll as the merchants and the manufacturers. to work with us. that we -an make 8 good showing before the world at the Jamestown exposition"
 That was the statement yesterday of Hon. John B. Ward, of Abbeville. who has been given the difficult task of getting up the exhibit from Ala bama at the ter-centennial at James town the coming summer. MT. Ward sition. and has met with great success in all portions of the State he has visited. He declares the Alabama display Is going to be an excellent one.
 The exhibit from the State Is to be divided into four general sections. rep. resentius the mineral, the agricultural and horticultural, and timber resources products of the State.

YOUNG MEN WANTED
P0sTOFF1CE DEPARTMENT Tt HOLD EXAMINATIONS.
New Law offers Inducements Which h Expected to Appeal to White Applicants for
 Positions.

It Is expected that under the new law. considerable number of ener- getic young white men will present themselves for the examination for clerks in the Montgomery postofHce, when the local civil service examin- ing. board, of which O. O.. Irwin is secretary, conducts Its next test of efficiency on May 22.
 Under the law as 1t has heretofore existed, the white men of the commu- nfty have felt there was nothing in store for them in the postoffice service, and have therefore not applied for examination for the various positions. The salary has been $500 to start with. and there was no positive assurance that 1t would ever be increased.
 The new law, enacted at the last session of Congress, which becomes ef- fective at the beginning of the next fiscal year, July 1. provides that the postal service shall be $500 per an- mum, and that at the end of the first years service, the compensation shall be increased to $500. Thereafter an increase of $100 per annum shall be made at the end of each additional year of service, until the salary re- ceived Is $1,200, which would be re- ceived during the sixth and all suc- ceeding years.
 The certainty of a raise from the entrance salary, and steady advance ment until the maximum of $1.200 per annum Is reached, with practically a life position ahead makes the position more attractive to intelligent white men. and it seems probable that a num- Der of them will apply to take the coming examination.
 The examination is to be held to pro- vide list of persons eligible for ap- pointment both as clerks and carriers in the Montgomery postoffice. It will be held May 23, and 1t is stated that all applications to take the examina- ton must be filed not later than May 15.

A CORRECTION.

In the Cobbs advertisement yester- day, two slight errors were made in the Carpet Department prices.
 A special price was given by the roll on Mating, stating aIso that any number of yards wanted could be had at the price quoted" This was mis- take. as the prices quoted were only "by the roll"
 at 55 cents each. This was an error. These squares are 9x12 feet, while the price quoted was meant to cover only the small Mating Rugs, 3ex72 inches.
