SOCIETY IN NEW YORK
ny MARGARET WATTS DE PEYsTER.

New York, June 25.-(SpeciaL )-Just as society became wildly enthusiastic over automobiles so has 1t become wild over aviation. With such fashionables as Ed win Gould, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Col. John Jacob Astor and Courtland Field Bishop excited over the polite possbfli ties of the aeroplane, 1t is no wonder that society has trailed behind For weeks Hampstead Heath has been the Mecca for a string of monogrammed automobiles bearing crowds to watch the work of the bird-men. It was this same infatuation for the flying fad that de- tcrmined the Wright brothers in their project of opening school of aviation in Newport this summer.
 The aeronautic microbe is spreading rapidly. To some extent horses, yachts and automobiles are forgotten or merely used as the occasion arises. Million aires are fguratively falling over them. selves in their frantic haste to possess one of the sky machines.
 Visions of aerial race courses are filling with roseate hopes the' minds of the propagators of sport
 For upward of year aviation has been keen fad with the nobility of Europe. Americans who have been abroad-that Is, rich Americans-can now discuss the various dieffrentiates of the plane and propeller with great success.
 The international aviation meeting on Long Island in the fall will be the most fashionable outdoor sporting event ever held in America. Yes. bar none in this sweeping assertion. It will mean great influx of foreign nobles which will add further social prestige to It. l daresay all the American princesses and duchesses and countesses--or many of them-will come over for 1t. The Vanderbilt cup races, so far as the social side is con cerned, will be completely and wholly eclipsed Aviation costumes are being planned even at this early date. Some of them rather odd, but then they are fashionable.
 Practically every cottage at Newport is now occupied. The season promises to be up to the old gay standard The Casino will be closed to those who are not members, except on Sunday nights. when band concerts will be given and an admission price will be charged. The Casino will also be opened to the public during the lawn tennis tournament and the horse show. The veil of exclusive ness however, which was 50 apparent last year will be in effect all summer
 feature of Newport will be string of polo poniees at the stables of The Breakers, the owner of the ponies being Harry Payne Whitney. who was instru- mental in forming the American polo

Can we grow vegetables and fruits successfully in the Birmingham dis trict, and especially in Jefferson coun ty? The United States soil survey of Jefferson county says we can. In fact this high authority asserts that the greater part of the 719,360 acres of Jefferson county is well adapted to truck farming and that a great deal of the various soils will produce a high quality of fruit, soil like the Clarks- vile stony loam, of which there are 73,664 acres in the county.
 If, however, any further proofs were needed we have them in the most con- vincing form in the vegetable farms now situated in the outskirts of and near our city, and the few orchards seen here and there, the latter of which

the farm he now cultivates and which contains 51z acres In April--only two months ago-yet today the entire o1s acres are covered with a great variety of vegetables, cabbage, beans, beats. okra, cucumbers turnips. etc, ripe for mark eting; his receipts from the sale of these vegetables at present amounts to from $20 to $25 per week. This case gives ample testimony of what good man can accomplish with our lands and also the great fertility of this type of soil-the Decatur clay loam. There are over 21.000 acres of this soil ill the county, good deal of it being found in close proximity to the city. Witt such evidences as these we will have no trouble to induce a good many of the desired class of people 10 settle here, after we make known to them what we have here and then go after tn em.
