MOBILE LID" DOWN
FULLER LIQUOR BILL RIGIDLY EN-
FORCED.
Claim Made That More stores and
Houses Are Observation-Disclosures Of
Tenderioin Drtven to
other Points.

Mobile. Ala, Aug. 2s.--The State Of
Alabama has had one week under the
operation of the Fuller prohibition
Law, termed the most drastic sumptu-
AIRY law ever drawn.
While opinions as to the benefits de-
rived naturally vary, opinions as 70
the enforcement Of the law agree. IL
is being enforced with a zeal that has
never before characterized the EFFORTS
OF law officers.
Even in those cities which opposed
the enactment OF the law most siren
uously, Its enforcement Ia conscien-
tfous. BY this IL not meant that there
are no violations. The dockets OF
the police court prove that wsikey IL
still being sold. but this Is not due to
any negligence on the part OF the
peace officers.
In. the larger cities, as In Mobile,
for instance. the effect of the new
law Is more marked. The large num-
Der of vacant houses, both business
and residences, is very apparent. Not
only the store rooms are vacant In
which the liquor business was con-
Quoted prior to the enactment OF the
law. but the homes in which employees
lived are awiting new tenants as we'll
ON the other hand. the police report
general exodus Of the denizens OF the
tenderIoin. which they consider dis
tinct advantage.
The .'for rent and 'for sale columns
of newspapers in other large cities In
dictate q similar condition.
The officers charged with the enforce
ment of the law have been conscten-
tious and alert. One OF the objection
able features of the measure. 80 Tar
as the police are concerned. is the CIV
ing of power even to enter and search
private houses. Lawyers say that dam
age suits will unquestionably follow ef-
forts on the part of the shrievalty to
avail themselves of the power thus
given. OF course. wher. the evidences
is strong( there can be no redress, but
such evidence Is difieult to obtain with
a search. There seems to be an under
standing among the officers to enforce
the law rigidiy in order that the people
may have a chance to judge of its ef-
fects before the election next fall, when
the constitutional prohibition amend
ment will be voted upon.
That the law has affected hotels is
asserted, and In proof, 1t Is cited that
two of Mobiles finest hotels have
closed their dining rooms because OF
the diverting Of tourist travel to other
States.

The Origin of Wheat.

Kansans know well that this is
the banner wheat state; that it
spends a good portion of every
year hollering" for harvest
hands and box cars. Probably
not so many know where the
wheat came from. 1t isn't ma
tive to Kansas, like the buffalo
grass and politicians, and it's
origin is really lost in prehistoric
times. The native land of Guilt
waited wheat is commonly believ-
ed to be Central Asia, but dis
covery made not many years
ago shows that a kind of grass
found along the Mediterranean
in Africa, and in Western Asia,
becomes wheat by proper cult
walton. Wheat is now the bread
stuff of twelve European coun
tries, the United States, Canada,
South America, and is supplant
ing several inferior grains in
India. The Chinese raised wheat
as early as 27OO B. c., and re
garded it as a gift direct from
heaven. The ancient Egyptians
raised wheat, and attributed its
origin to Isis. The Greeks had
a myth that Ceres gave wheat to
the world. According to the
myth she taught her favorite,
Tripolemus, agriculture and the
art of bread making. and gave
him her chariot, a celestial We
hicle, which he used to diStrib
ute the grain to all nations. An
Gent monuments show the cult
walton of wheat in Egypt before
the invasion of the Shepherds.
Three small grain varieties of
wheat were grown by the lake
dwellers of Switzerland at the
time of the Trojan war. 1t was
successfully grown by the in
habitants of Hungary at the time
of the stone age. In an Egypt
ian monument bearing the date
1859 B. @. az gain of wheat was
found imbedded as proof of it's
early cultivation. In all the most
ancient languages there are
names for wheat, tending to
show that it's cultivation far an
tedates authentic history. Of
course wheat had been common
breadstuff so long before Amer
lea was discovered that it was in
troduced into this country as
soon as white men began to farm
and it came into Kansas with the
first settlers. There are numer
Gus varities of wheat, Darwin
mentioning a Frenchman who
had collected 1922 varities of
wheat Probably not all of these
were distinct species, differing
only in minor points. Wheat is
the worlds most valuable agri-
cultural product today, and with
the exception of corn, the most
productive of the cereals. Most
of the nations of the world raise
wheat, but the United States
leads them all with 634, O87 900

Under date of July I'd and 9th
respectively, the two following
items were published in the
Brownel Courier: Why do the
young people stick to the worn
out fad of charivaring newly
married couples, when it be much
nicer to serenade them instead
of acting like gang of wild In
dams.
Why do bridegrooms stick to
the unlawful fad at treating with
cigars when they know it is
against the law to give away to-
bacco to minors in any form !?
Some will have to be made an
example of. so take warming
Handler in.
1t seems to me that the hand
ed in article" of last week should
not go unnoticed or unanswered.
This article was evidently writ
ten by some fool crank or some
newly married person who has
had to spend 80 cents for treats
for his friends. Having seeu the
practice of charivaring for some
80 years, and go yet with my
husband some times, I have seen
nothing done that was so i'm
proper as to be called horrid or
vicious, and they are always
meant as a manifestation of re
spect, and if the crowd is treated
with just common decency by
the bride and groom, nothing
rough is ever reSorted to. As to
giving tobacco to minors, this
has not been done to my per-
sonal knowledge at any of the
late charivaries so you take
warning and post yourself, Dear
Guardian Angel, before you
break into print. I still have
faith in the young people of
Brownell and such articles leads
to strengthen tx. Y. T.
We have absolutely no comment
to make
