Cold WaUe of Past Week Destroyed
 Strawberry Crop Near Montgomery

The cold wave of the past week has destroyed the early strawberry crop round about Montgomery. The pro- longed period of balmy weather pre- vious to this had been so favorable to the growth of plants that, ten days ago, the beds were In full bloom and large berries were already ripening But the frost reeked quick havoc among them. It iB further likely to bring about a severe reduction In the spring crop. for 1t is generally believed that an entirely new crop wlii have to blossom.
 Mir. NJ. c. Scott, one of the largest truck gardeners met with a heavy loss. He had seven acres of strawber- rles which were just ready for market when the frost fell and, In a single night, wiped out the work of several months. The day before the cold wave struck the state. he had picked thirty quarts of splendidly -sized berries. Ev- erywhere in hls field there was a most luxuriant crop, and he expected to bring 6 large number of crates to the city this week. owing to the profu- sion of berries the price would have been particularly low for this time of the year. Ar. Scott says that Il is i'm.

 At Cuba, this County, the people have suffered a great loss by the cold wave the loss Is estimated to be &i.O00 to S2,000.

possible for him to tell the effect of the destruction of the early crop upon prices during the spring.
 Other early vegetables. suffered. The green peas, which were rapidly matur4 Ing. were hard hit. The oldest crop, planted In December, was very heavily damaged. The younger one, much less so. cahbages were also killed so gen- erally that a new lot must be set out. Other vegetables that were uncovered are so frozen as to be made utterly worthless for market.
 Fortunately, one of the largest to- mato producers, south of Montgomery, had his plants under sheets, and was able to save them from the frosk. Ills crops have been made unusually vRl- uabls for Northern markets, owing tha blight given to tomato plants else~. where through the excessive cold.

Michigan Farmers
 InUestigate Alabama

A. f 90 often decimates the Western herds the fact that grass grows green here practically the year around, and the exceptional freedom of stock from dis eases that affect other sections has greatly impressed the committee.
 While cattle have been. discussed by them q great deal, hogs are also taken In consideration largely because of the adaptability of this climate for that branch of the stock business. The presence in Middle Western cities of packing houses and the ready access to these markets for the stock product. and also the facilities here for the erection of packing houses, the enorm- ous and lavish room for this business, Is making lasting impression on the men from Michigan.
 Sheep raising with them is also an Important question and when they were told of the success of several Michigan farmers already established in Aiabarma who are raising sheep ex- tensively, they expressed the deepest interest. MT. Dave explained to them the position the Southern cities are taking on the dog question, which has been the stumbling block to sheep raising for so many years. That this dog law will eventually spread. and at no late date, to the counties, Is fore
  gressive men of the State.
 The plan of the stock raisers now conducting q sheep industry in Ala bana Is to use half of their land for sheep one year, then shift the sheep over to the other side where plenty of food Is found for them on the farmed land, while the pasture of the sheep, formerly used. is found to be highly fertilized and In splendid con- dition for planting. This reciprocity between the agricultural and stock raising industries is said to be the key note of success for boths and they go hand in hand
 Mir. Dave has sent out hundreds of letters referring to this subject all through the West. and has received as many replies. the trip of the two gem tlemen now touring the State being re- sponstble partially to this work of the Commercial Clubs secretary.w
 The visitors will remain in Mont gomery a day or two studying railroad facilities and then will continue their trip on through the State. visiting farms and farmers and getting in touch with the general farm situation as practically conducted. They were sent out by . farmers union of Mich- igan to collect information and later report, the coming here of the West. ern farmers depending to great ex- tent on what the report is.

PROGRESS AT PANAMA
w. The Cost Keeping System
By Frederic J. Iaskin.

Isthmus. and then reloaded for Amer ican and European points. This Is the line of traffic of '.forty-nine" re- yersed.
 One Of the most interesting show ings that will be- made during the present calendar year is how much 1t will cost to lay concrete at the lock s and spillways on the Canal. The es- inmates have been on the basis of ss per yard of concrete. Arrangements are being perfected for laying this concrete at 0atun, and 1t now seems probable that the locks win not cost more than the s50.0oo,o0o estimated for them. By the end of the present fiscal year nearly every detail of the work will have been guaged by the cost keepers. and 1t win then be pos sible for the commission to take the public Into its confidence and give it q close idea of what the ultimate cost of the canal is going to be- It has developed that there is more work to be done than was estimated when the efs3.0o0.000 limit was fixed. and that the estimates of unit of cost for the various materials encountered were wide of the mark. In many in- stances the cost has been less, in others 1t has been more.
 The data gathered by the canal cost ROcpaA8 SyotCnA 0AEAh6 tnG bHtialnk of the big waterway. will continue one of the most unique records of the work. From 1t the government will be able to better arrive at reasonable compensation for the performance of contract work in the future. It has generally been held by army engineers that they could do given piece of work cheaper than contractors. and many experiences are cited in support of that theory,
 As the nation seems to be standing on the threshold of tine greatest era of deep waterway development the world has ever known. 1t Is not i'm. probable that the canal plant may be brought home after that job is done. to be used on deep waterways at home. Of course this is mere speculation. but if the showing at Panama Continhes as remarkable as 1t has been, such a course is not improbable.

TOoLATE FOR ARMY ANEuvERS
ZEPPELIN AIRSHIP DELAYED,
BREAKING PROPELLER.
Reaches Mergentheim, However,
Before Crowd Disperses and Gives
Exhibition for Emperor.

MERGENTHEIM, Germany, September
1s.-Contrary to expectations, the Zeppe-
lin airship did not put in an appearance at
the German army maneuvers before the
exercises had come to an end. After leav-
ing Frankfort Thursday afternoon the
Zeppelin III broke a propeller. This made
necessary landing, in which slight dam
age was incurred. Repairs were made
and the airship continued its progress, but
when it finally appeared yesterday after
noon over the rear guard of the Red
army the maneuvers were over. The dir
igible. however. met the Gross airship
over the point where Emperor William
was criticising the maneuvers before the
assembled commanders, and the two ves-
sells circled about for several hours.
The operations Of the Red and Blue
armies were concluded without any de-
cisive result as, in order to prevent the
Blue army from being overwhelmed by
the superior numbers of the Red the
general staff invented q neutral state and
an imaginary army to cover the BLUE"
rear.
Emperor William Is highly pleased with
the marching performances OF the south
German troops.
Capt. Samuel G. Shartle, the American
military attache at Berlin, has been an in
defatigable witness of the maneuvers. He
went out each day in q motor car to En-
peror Williams headquarters and rode
out from there on a horse placed at his
disposal by his majesty.
