CAREER RULES ON
 COURT ATTENDANCE
Opinion Regarding Collection
 of Witness Fees
MAKES REPLY TO BROOKE
Deputies and Witnesses Entitled to Attendance for Only One Day and Mileage According
 to Opinion

Montgomery. April 6.-(Special.) )- Attorney General A. M. Garper has ruled that deputies and witnesses are entitled to only one day and one mile- age in attendance upon court, even though they appear in many cases. The inquiry came from H. Y. Brooke, ex aminer of accounts. who has been at work in Birmingham, and IS checking over a number of accounts of county officers. Gambling and prohibition cases have come up in large numbers to which this rule will apply.
 The opinion follows:
 Hon. H. Y. Brooke. Assistant FIX.
 aminer of Public Accounts, Birminy-
 ham. Ala:
 Dear Sir--I have your communication Of the 18th inst, requesting me to ls>e you my opinion as to the proper construction of section 6667 of the criminal code of 1907. dealing with the fees of state witnesses when sub roenaed in more cases than one and are In attendance in such cases on the same day.
 It is clear from the language of sec ton 0oOS lndl witnesses III cases are only entitled to $1" for each days attendance and the pre- scribed mileage. The fact that wit res for the state may be in attend ance in more criminal cases than one at the same tiSe does not operate to change the meaning of section 6653. No other reasonable construction of section 6659 can be reached and when section 66s7 is construed In the light of the plain meaning Of the former
 section an interpretation cannot be given to the latter section which would authorize the issuance to witness of two or more per diem compensations for the same day. though such wit ness may have been in attendance Tn several criminal cases on the same day. witness would he equally justified in claiming additional mileage for each day during which he was in attendance g upon court on the same case. This would be manifestly outside of section GG59. The contention pressed upon you would be equally so. The expressions 8 lat the same time" and while so at tsng," found Tn section 666Y relate | to the period or time-the number of days-a witness may be in attendance concurrently in lnore than one cria,. l. inal case. and the evident purpose of this section iE to provide the manner in which he may claim per diem com
 pensation for each day when he is thus | in attendance upon court. In the con- struction of section 6667 regard must | he had for the general provision m section 6659. which limits tie compen- sa ton of a witness in criminal cases | 'to S1 per day" Very truly yours, >r ALEX. M CAR BIER, Attorney General.

 The ovation which was accorded to Colonel Mallory hero was begun long tefore the appointed hour for the epeaking In the lobby of the hospitab,e ~Jasper Inn a reception was held im- nediately prior to the speaking. For even an hour Colonel Mallory held forth iu this cozy den. while eager citizens Of Jasper dashed through the rain soaked streets to do him honor At his side stood that dauntless democrat and beloved Alabamian.

It was he. likewise who introduced the speake 10 the crowd assembled at the court fouse. And the ex-state auditor and present judge of the law and equity court of Walker did himself proud in the discharge of this duty.

 - An "all star" cast was present with Colonel Mallory throughout the day Anxious to show their distinguished 9uest the honor due him. many ot Jasper's prominent citizens rallied around him and during the hour of 1he reception presented to the candi- 1ate the citizens of the county.

In the spring Of 1903 farmer in
Wisconsin made an extensive expert

land which had not given satisfactory
yields the preceding year. For this

phosphate. using it on oats seeded to

pounds per acre. The result of this
experiment is given in the following

What to Feed tho Calf.

Say what you please. raising a calf
by hand is not natures way and is not
so good. but the difference in cost is
supposed to make up for defects.
When the calf sucks. it gets a tiny
stream OF milk that is: well mixed with
saliva. which flows copiously at the
same time. This saliva is very neces-
sary to digestion. 1t is really more
important than the butter fat that is
skinned out. Milk may be too rich
in cream for the calf.
II the calf drinks its milk 1t takes
it too fast for the saliva to mix with
it properly: hence the digestion will
not be perfect. but is there no way
to improve the usual drinking meth
cd? There Is. at least to some extent.
1t is to feed small quantity OF milk
at a time. say. about pint. This
gives time for saliva to collect in the
calfs mouth between drinks. and the
effect is much better.
