Two Railroads In One Day

Cities consider themselves fortunate when they acquire a single railroad in day That day becomes a red letter day in their calendar. But Birming- ham will today acquire two railroads, the two covering a rich and productive belt in the heart of the country ex- tending from the gulf to the great lakes.
 The Mobile and Ohio and the Hi nois Central railroads really cover the Mississippi valley, and the affiliated roads of the Illinois Central extend to the Pacific coast. The extent of our railroad development today is there fore very great. Our own people, ac- customed to important public events, scarcely appreciate the good fortune that comes to this city today.
 The accession of these two railroads makes Birmingham the chief railroad
 
 center of the southeast In that re- spect it will never be outranked in the south, except possibly by New Orieans We need, it is true, an extension of .he Gould system, but that will come i'll due season. The Gould roads can no more afford 70 stay out of Birmingham l than they could afford to get along without a Pittsburg connection. When we make more iron and steel and mine more coal and build more coke ovens, the Gould roads will see where the source of heavy tonnage is in tie south "a tonnage that even now far exceeds thot of the entire cotton crop.
 Tonnage is king, and the Mobile and Ohio and the Illinois Central come here today to make their bows to the king they reverence. But nevertheless the event should be duly celebrated, as it undoubtedly will be today. Through trains between Chicago and Savannah will tomorrow begin service, and the Mobile and Ohio's trains will follow soon after.

AYOndale Invited to Come In

By a vote-of II yeas and nays the board of aldermen invited Avondale to annex itself to Birmingham The two towns have grown together so that the wayfarer cannot tell where one ends and the other begins. It is fitting, therefore, that they should become one.
 If the citizens of Avondale are so minded, this can speedily be accom- plished and Avondale's experience Us an annexed district might lead to other quick additions.
 The entire subject is before the peo- pie of Avondale, and their decision will determine the time of their annexa- tion. They can stay out until October of next year without blame. They are free to act up to their convictions. All that can be said is that their coming would be welcomed, and the fatted calf is presumably ready. The vote in the board of aldermen means as much in all logic and common sense.

the states of the cotton belt west of Alabama the fields are grassy. The Commercial concludes that the acreage is not quite as large as it was last year; the condition of the crop is bet ter than it was one year ago, but not so good as it has been in an average season. Last season was unfavorabl9, and a small crop was grown on large acreage. The acreage this year is large enough to furnish a large crop provided the weather be favorable. Thus far it has not been altogether so.
 The sales of fertilizers in the cotton belt have been fully equal to those of the previous year The Commercials correspondents in Alabama admit that the average is a trife larger, that an equal amount of fertilizers has been good average start-a much better start than was recorded one year ago 1 The Alabama correspondents number fully 100, and they are among the best observers in the state. Those for Biz mingham, for example, are R. M. Brass field, Yielding Bros & Co.,, The Howell Cotton company, and c. H. Cochran. i The crop looks as well in this state, no doubt, as it does in any other state, possibly better. The entire crop stands where good weather can make big crop and poor weather can hold it down to II ,000, ,000 bales. It does not differ in that respect from previous CrODS

Battling Against the Flies

Every good housekeeper is just now striving to drive and to keep out that pest. the common fly. The case against the fly is complete. It has been tried by the scientist and fully convicted. It's hairy belly and legs are loaded as a rule with filth and disease germs. Once admitted to a house it fits from one article of food to another until it has perhaps scattered disease germs among an entire family.
 It's extermination is not presently possible. That will be accomplished when the world is further advanced In sanitary methods, but expulsion from well-kept homes is now possible and feasible Screens at openings and fly poison in the interior readily seal the fate of the insect so far as we'll kept homes are concerned. But the public health will not be subserved while flies are abundant. In Gle good time coming flies and mosquitoes will both be exterminated The truth is, both spring from impurities. If all could live in conditions of rigid cleanliness there would be no flies and no mosqui- toes. The horse stable and standing water would cease to be outfits of civ iiization. The horse stable breeds flies and standing water breeds mosquitoes, and the two pests when bred by man s carelessness carry the germs of ty. phoid fever, malaria and various bowel diseases to the food and drink of all sorts and conditions of people.

BERLIN BEER HALL ETIQUETTE.

Samuel c. Blythe in June EverybodY's.
 Berlin is organized for eating and drink ing and so are the Berliners organized Tor it. Scattered all over the city are enormous places where food is served, wine halls, where only wines are served, and beer halls, which deal in beer alone, some of them most respectable and some rot so impeccable. It is the rule that it is perfectly proper to take your mother or your wife or your sister to a beer hall or wine hall that is freduented by the officers of the army. They go only 70 the proper ones-publicly. The etiquette of these places is most formal. If the hall is crowded and tables are scarce, before you sit down you draw your heels together and make a military bow to everybody sitting at the table you select. Then also, you raise your glass or stein to those at the table when your refresh ment is served. On leaving, you bow all around again. Or the other people at tie table bow, if they leave before you do. The American way of asking the others at the table for permission to sit down is not ceremonious enough for the Ger mans, who are the most formally polite people in the world

Traffic Outlook Better.

George R. Browder of Atlanta, assist ant freight traffic manager of the Soutn- ern railway spent yesterday in Birming- ham,.
 Business is improving said MT. Browder. and while railroad traffic IS still light. the fact that the iron market has become very active gives lis hope that cur June tonnage will show an increase over May.
 T feel that the railroad business will be much better this summer than had been predicted few weeks back. There were those who said business would be at standstill until after the election, but the way things are picking up now leads me to think the improvement Will continue. An active iron market certainly means much for traffic in the Birming- ham district.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-05-30
Atlanta Jealous.

Tt is a noteworthy fact that Birmlng- ham has suffered less from business de- pression following last years panic than any manufacturing city" said a local railroad official And now that iron is selling in large tonnage and the steel plant is about to resume this district Will be the center of decided industrial stir throughout the summer.
 While business men here know that Birmingham has more than held it's own during the past few months rival cites are full of people who misrepresented the facts about conditions in this district was in Atlanta this week and found 1t was currently reported there that half the houses In Birmingham were vacant; that all the furnaces were idle and in- dustrial life in general was paralyzed. Such false statements naturally provoke one to wrath Atlantians who referred, il my presence, to Birmingham dis paragingly got a piece of my mind l told them that knew as a railroad man, that half of the industries in the Birming- ham district might be shut down and that then it would produce more traffic than Atlanta when the latter was in normal condition.
 'trhe fact is that many of Birming- hams largest manufacturing plants have been operating practically to their full capacity right along. And it is safe to say that before July industrial conditions will be about normal again.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-05-30
The Turning Point.

Tt has been remarked that when pros perity did return it would come suddenly, said a business man who has been through three panics. "I myself felt that way about it. We have now reached the turn ing point. Not only is the iron market a safe business barometer-very active with prices tending upward, but there is improvement in nearly every line of trade
 ''The favorable crop reports are at the bottom of the general improvement, and unless some unusual disturbance comes we will have prosperous summer. Three months ago nearly everybody said that we could not expect anything but hard times until after the election; but the scale turns suddenly and now everybody is optimistic. After June b there will be fully 10000 more wagearners at work in the Birmingham district than were em- 'ployed in April There wIll be few idle miners and practically no idle iron or steel workers hereabouts'
