possible in the number of mice is
to he found In the fact that these
animals produce six filters of young
of an average of six to each litter. II
is even asserted that the first young
will begin breeding before winter
under favorable conditions. such as
are offered by the fine cover and
abundant food of alfalfa fields, an in
crease of 90 fold is possible.
Numerous experiments during the
winter with all kinds of bats and
poisons. has resulted in showing
Stryehnine Sulphate to be the most
effective poison. During the winter
months poisoned alfalfa was used
with excellent results in the fields
about Lovelock. This material was
found not only the cheapest and the
most effective poison but possesses
great additional vaule in that useful
birds are not endangered through its
use. Careful attention to the use of
this preparation during the wiater
months when no green food is pres
ent will affectually reduce the num-
Der of mice and prevent the posi-
bility of scourge such as occurred
at Lovelock.
During the past few days expert
ments have been conducted in alfalfa
fields in this valley Whole wheat,
chopped carrots. parsnips, alfalfa hay,
green alfalfa and cracked wheat were
tried as mediums for carrying poison.
OF these materials, cracked wheat
and green alfalfa were found to be
the most effective. The following
preparations are recommended:
Cracked wheat. so lbs, strychnina
sulphate. 1oz. water four gallons.
Dissolve the strychnine sulfate in
the water. by allowing it TO heat for
about twenty minutes, stirring the
solution occasionally. When com
pletely dissolved sprinkle over the
cracked wheat and mix thoroughly.
This preparation is recommended
where it is necessary to poison on a
large scale, since It is the most con-
venient for rapid destruction. OF
course many birds will be destroyed.
but the matter of poisoning the mice
Is of such Importance that the birds
can hardly be considered. A few
small pinches of this preparation are
sufficient for each colony of mice. 1t
is not necessary to treat each half,
but TO rapidly distribute it by half
broadeasting' over the land
Green alfalfa As lbs. cut into about
, inch lengths, strychnine sulfate, !
o.. water, , gallons.
Dissolve strychnine in water; allow
to cool; sprinkle over alfalfa and
mix well until moisture is all taken
up
This is probably the most effective
poison at this season, but where large
areas are to be treated, II is i'm
practicable on account of difficulty
of procuring and of the longer time
necessary to distribute it over the
fields. For small places, or from 40
to so acres, it is highly recommended
A few pieces of the poisoned alfalfa
should he placed in or about holes in
the runways of the mice Where IL
can be done, this poison should be
distributed during evening hours.
The cost of this preparation is about
20 per cent less than that of cracked
grain. Courier.

WILL MAKE FINAL
 APPEAL FOR JUDGE
THE UNDERSTANDING YEsTER- DAY WAS THAT COUNCIL MIGHT
 TAKE UP ELECTION OF JUDGES
 SUCCESSOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT

If the majority of the city council car ries through it's programme of defeating N B. Feagin, judge of the police court, Alderman Burnett will have successful ly weathered the opportunities of all the churchmen, a great majority of the prom inent business men, all the women. who did much toward winning the prohibition battle, and many hundreds. of the chill dren of Birmingham.
 They all plan to meet MT. Burnett and talk the matter over with him. The old Confederate soldiers will plead with the leader of the council majority. The lit tie children will Insist that the judge be retained in the place where he has done so much good for childhood of the state of Alabama.
 Next week will see the beginning of this invasion of the people who have no op- portunity to command with their votes. Camp Hardee will take up the question of Judge Feagin's candidacy at a called session. All of the women's clubs of the city have already discussed It. and win make known their resolutions next week. As stated on other occasions, the council unless moved from it's present de- termination, will elect E. c. Crow to succeed Judge Feagin.
 A startling rumor gained ground yes terday to the effect that in order to an- ticipate the mass meetings planned yes- terday in the several wards, and the importunities of the old veterans, the ladies, the children, and other citizens, the aldermanc majority would elect Judge Feagin's successor at it's next meeting, Wednesday night
 The council can take this step in case it sees fit. The code provides that at the first meeting in October or immediately thereafter, the council shall elect a city attorney, a city clerk, and city treas urer, and may elect other officers if it sees proper It was impossible last night to substantiate the report to the effect that the judge of the police court would be chosen next Wednesday night, for those favoring Judge Feagin had heard nothing of it, and those with the ma jority declared themselves uniformed
