COMMERCIAL
 CLUB MEETS 5. J. Casse1s Makes Splendid Talk. BOOSTING PLANS UNF0LDED Plea to Develop Home Industry
 Made. Pseposision of sub-Diyiding Crest PIsntations Into Smaller Farms For whIte rmmlsrant. i.
 Again Discussed.
 

Two dozen men, "got together for Montgomery" according to their avow- ed purpose, last night at the meeting of the Commercial Club. It was an informal gathering in a way. but en- thusiastic withaI, as much so as any of the more largely attended meet ings.
 A feature of the evening, and one that bids fair to become an institu- tion, was talk by s. J. Cassels on the cotton seed oil industry, branch of commerce in which Montgomery is rapidly taking the lead in the South
 It was shown that there is an eff fort on foot. promoted by cotton seed oil men, to have oleo-stearine. an im- portant ingredient of the cotton seed lard, placed on the free list, whereas 1t Is now subject to 25 per cent. ad valorem duty. By the elimination of the duty, it was shown by Mir. Cas- sells. the price of the compound lard can be reduced greatly, to the bene- fit of the consumer. as well as to the manufacturer.
 this club will be asked to draft reso- lutions re equesting the elimination of the duty; though I think that the ef- forts of the cotton seed men will be successful, so much have they worked, without the aid of the interested pub uc."
 The packers, he told, are holding up the cotton seed lard manufacturers on the oleo-stearine, because of the duty. If 1t is eliminated, he said. and thus introduced without the extra expense, then the consumer of lard. which body includes practically every living per- son. Is benefited.
 The compound lard. he told, is made of cotton seed oil to the amount of 80 per cent. and with oleo-stearine to the remaining percentage.
 Cotton seed oil, It's value, the va- rious uses to which 1t can be put; the growth of the industry entailed in It's manufacture. were all outlined by MT. Cassels.
 He told that in the past seventeen years the output of cotton seed has increased 400 per cent, and the manu- facture of the oil has increased more than seven thousand per cent, because of the growth of the industry--an in- dustry. as he said. which means much to the cotton growing South. The demand for the cotton seed products is rapidly growing. likewise. he told. so that the farmer gets for his seed at present from SIS to $40 q ton as against SC seventeen years ago. More than $se, 100000 Is the value of the South's output of cotton seed oil each

MAKING SUNSHINE
It Is Often Found in Pure Food.

The improper selection of food drives many a healthy person into the depths of despairing Illness. Indeed, most sickness comes from wrong food and just so surely as that is the case right food will make the sun shine once more.
 An old veteran of Newburyport, Mass. says: "In October%I was taken sick and went to bed, losing 47 pounds in about 60 days. I had doctor after doctor, food hurt me and I had to live almost entirely on magnesia and soda. All solid food distressed me so that water would run out of my mouth in little streams
 T had terrible night sweats and my doctor finally said I had consumption and must die. My good wife gave up all hope. We were at old Orchard, Me, at that time and my wife saw Grape Nuts In a grocery there. She bought aome and persuaded me to try 1t.
 T had no faith in 1t but took 1t to please her. To my surprise 1t did not distress me as all other food had done age I was well on the mend. The pains left my head, my mind became clearer and I gained weight rapidly.
 T went back to my work again and now after six weeks use of the food am better and stronger than ever be- fore in my life. Grape-Nuts surely saved nv life and made me a strong hearty non, 15 pounds heavier than before I V as taken sick.
 Both my good wife and I are will H. 2 to make afiidavits to the truth of this"

UiscussiOn of Call for Extra Legisia-

 Birmingham. June S.--(Special) )---An- other meeting of the headquarters com mittee of the Alabama Anti Saloon League will be held in the next few days when a report will be received from special committee on legisla- ton, composed of T. 0. Ratliff, Rev. l. H Mccoy and Judge Samuel D. weakley, as to the various forms of Legislation to be taken up in the ex- ira session of the Legislature anent prohibition.
 There is much speculation as to1what form the activities of the league will take before the extra session which ts to be called by the Governor.
 1t is learned that some of the prom inent workers fear that 1t would be crowding matters to ask the Governor to Incorporate the prohibition cons1tu- tionaI amendment in his call, since 50 many matters to be attended to have already been announced.
 The extra session cannot continue more than thirty actual working days. It may be possible that the committee will recommend that certain measures designed to strengthen the present laws be pushed. The constitutional amend ment may be left until the next regu- lar session.
 The Citizen. the official organ of the Alabama League. will hereafter be pub lished as weekly instead of a monthly. Rev. Brooks Lawrence, the Alabama agent of the Anti-Saloon League, is the editor of The Citizen.
