States, mainly for the reason that it i; the home of the mellolotus and alfalfa MT. Allen has the Italian bees, the besl and hardest honey producers in th' world. The apiary is in charge of J. Fit Hurt, who got his training under J. M Jenkins. the we'll known apiculturist oi Wetumpka.
 From 50 to 100 pounds of honey is taker from each hive a year and most Of it is sold at the highest market price In Bir. mingham and Montgomery
 MT Allen also has on this farm the largest herd of Hereford cattle in Ala bama. He has 10 fine registered animals. He has been dipping his cattle for live years and it Is kept clear of cattle ticks. His loss from Texas fever has not been 1 Ter cent during the five years This Is wonderful record when the environ ments for the period named are taken into consideration.
 But this magnificent farm is entirely enclosed with a strong wire fence sup ported by heavy cedar posts. On the farm is 25 miles of this fence and the herd is kept entirely isolated from other cat tle
 A modern silo houses green salad for winter feeding.
 Mir. Allen is not a specialist. He grows everything on the farm that will grow itl this climate and soil. He believes in diversification and intensive cultivation.
 Here Is what his manager, A. M. Col line, did last year: He took piece of ground that had grown up in Johnson grass and planted 1t to cotton in 1909. Last year he planted it in corn and eul- tivated it according to the government instructions. He gathered 90 bushels of corn to the acre and this only one year from a wild crop of Johnson grass.
 A large acreage is planted to all kinds of fruit trees. There are 1900 pecan trees from to years old, and 800 fig trees There are also hundreds of peach, apple, plum and other fruit trees. He has recently planted 20,000 catalpa trees for forest and timber. The farm is stocked with duroc Jersey hogs, fine chickens and 800 homer pigeons
 This one of Mr. Aliens farms is one Of the finest in the black belt of Ala | bama
 Many of MT. Aliens friends look upon il as one of his toys but his smile was more than wise when I asked him if i was an expensive luxury
 It is fact worthy of consideration that 800 acres of this farm sold before the war at $l00 per acre in gold. Int average price of these lands today is iron $l5 to S35 per acre
 MT. Allen has another farm in Virginia and another that he has but recently bought near Mount Pinson in Jefferson county.
 MT. Allen is one of the best long dis l tanee farmers in Alabama.

Loving Cup for Fitts

Immediately preceding the call for Pres ident Abercrombie to toast, Dean BUCK Oliver of the college of law, with an elo- quent speech, presented J. H. Fitts, treas urer of the university with a loving cup on the part of the university alumni by whom Judge Fitts Is cherished as the ''best and strongest friend of the institu- tion." Judge Fitts responded with deep- ly worded appreciation of the token, and was straightaway followed by President Abercrombie, the next to be introduced by Postmaster Weatherly.
 President Abercrombes toast was antic ipated by the gathering with unanimous and continued applause In a brief sur vey of the progress of the university dur ing the past ten years Dr. Abercrombie took occasion to allude to remark from Secretary Anson Phelps Stokes of Yale university, who recently visited the uni versity for a second time. Dr. Stokes said before the Alabama Educational associa- tion at Mobile, following his visit, that the University of Alabama had achieved more progress edueationally within the past ten years than in all her former history of 70 years S retrospectiye

MAYOR TOZIER is
AT HIS OLD JOB AGAIN

All Salem is jubilant because of
the liberal manner in which the mer-
chants and manufacturers are taking
hold of the arrangements for Pion-
eer Day at the State Fair next Mon
day Mayor Lachmund has prepared
to issue a special proclamation de-
claring half holiday in Salem next
Monday that great honor be shown
those sturdy pioneers who have done
so much for the stability of Oregon.
Every motor car owned in Salem is
to be at the disposal OF the pioneers
for tour Of the city and adjacent
country and this feature Is directly
under the management of the Salem
Board Of Trade.
From the reports which are re-
ceived by Albert Tozier, mayor of
the tented city there will be more
than 5000 of the old pioneers and
their descendants present when Plo-
neer Day is celebrated next Monday.
Campers have reserved the spaces
they have used for years and some
requests have come as far away as
Maine. All intend to make the semi
centennial home coming one of the
greatest that was ever held and the
Salem business men are working like
Trojans to aid the special committees
appointed by the Salem Board of
Trade to work out the details of the
great day.
There will be lots of special at
fractions for the old pioneers in
cluding an old fashioned bonfire
which will precede the opening of
the big Wilson fireworks spectacle,
All the materials are now on the
ground for the giving of the pyro-
technical exhibit and all that is
needed now is the arrival of the
hour to touch of the first bombs
which are to signal the beginning of
the big aerial spectacle such as has
never been seen in Salem before.
In addition to the big racing pro-
gram of harness running and stee-
pie chase events, there are to be
several band concerts, free vaude-
Vile attractions, the massive Parker
carnival shows, pigeon races and ex-
hibitions of fancy shooting and bees
by experts who have been specially
engaged for the work in which they
are most expert.

He OFFERS
REWARD FOR
MURDERERS

Determined, if possible, to solve
the mystery surrounding six murders
committed in the state within the
last seven months and bring about
the apprehension of the guilty par
ties, Governor West today announced
that he would offer a reward of $4,000
in each case, and recommend to the
next legislature that the sums be
paid, should any one be successful in
bringing about their arrest and con-
viction.
The governor was prompt to make
the offer by the recent murder Of
Mrs. Daisy Wehrman and her three
year-old son at Scappoose, and also
by the fact that the murderer of the
Hill family and Barbara Holzeman,
of Portland, Is still at large. The
murder in both these latter cases
was similar to that In the Wehrman
case, the murderer in both having
violated the persons of the women.
The other murders for which re-
wards are offered are the Philomath
and Coble murder cases, aud the Nc
Culloch murder in eastern Oregon.
In view Of the fact that there is no
appropriation made for rewards of
this character, the most thIt the gov
ernor can do is to offer a reward
contingent upon an appropriation be-
ing made by the legislature upon his
recommendation.

Climate Failed
Medicine Cured

II has been absolutely shown that rest,
fresh air. and good food do help many
persons suffering from tuberculosis. But,

that the disease is seldom more than

this disease again and again often
these cures have been effected where the
surroundings were not ideal, where no
intelligent care was taken of the patient,
where money was scarce; good food ana
good cooking unusunl-yet cures resulted.

break and without a Jar and in the
pleasantest possible manner. At
one time a thrill ran through the

big boulder on top OF the high,
rocky bank and but for the heroic

there might have been a fatality.

it from crashing into the crowd be-

NEWPORT
CLAMBAKE
WAS GREAT
BUSHELS OF CLANS AND CRABS
POTATOES AND SALMON-AND
A GREAT CROWD TO PARTAKE
AND ENJOY.

The annual clambake given by the
people of Newport last Sunday was
a greater success than ever. About
1900 visitors and excursionists we're
served with the delicious biyalye
which is produced on Yaquina Bay
in unlimited quantities already salt
ed, peppered and seasoned to the
queens taste when it is taken out of
the water. About 800 went over on
the Southern Pacific special excur-
sion train and were brought back in
the evening to the satisfaction of
everybody.
A platform was constructed and
the bake was made on the New
port Beach inside the jetties just be-
low the city, under the shelter of
the high wall Of rock that rises
about 200 feet, giving complete shell
ter against the wind. A good side
walk leads to the clambake and
everybody could go and come while
the home band played delightful airs.
Many of the crowd took in the surf
bathing during the afternoon and
not even a light mist that fell in
terfered with the enjoyment of the
occasion.
The clambake was made in a pit
lined with rocks from the beach
about 10 feet wide and 80 feet long.
These rocks were heated with an i'm
mense fire of beach wood, then COW
cred over with about six inches of
seaweed. On this layer of seaweed
were placed 80 bushels of clans,
four barrels of crabs, five bushels Of
green corn, 10 sacks of potatoes and
about a thousand pounds of salmon.
These edibles were covered with
another layer of seaweed and then a
tarpaulin spread over the whole and
made air tight around the edges with
rocks and sand
Frank Blattner, Ed Stoker and
Mr.. Bateman assisted in making the
bake and when all was ready the
band played a patriotic air. DR..
Carter delivered the address of well
come and Grand Chief Bake Master
Priest uncovered the clambake and
the serious business began. The
clambake was served to the people
from two lines and they presented
paper plates at two long tables
where they were served in cafeteria
style by a committee of the follow
ing ladies:
Mrs. Lee Williams, Mrs. c. H.
Harding, Mrs. w. Il. Rich, Mrs.
Chas. NJ. Wynant, Mrs. Pentheness.
Miss Helen Anderson, Miss Pearl
Satterlee, Miss Isabel Ewing.
After each plate was heaped up
with the hot steaming delicacies,
shell was filled with melted butter
and a dressing for seasoning the
food This sauce is the finishing
touch for a clambake and to say
that the whole was served with per-
fection is only telling the truth for
the hospitable ladies and gentlemen
of Newport.

the business mems meeting was

1t is probable that the cases will

Thirty officials refused to pay the
fines and as they trooped through

said:
IF you come back here again, you
will all get good stiff fine"
Later it was stated that the Off

that the vehicle tax will be collected
despite the courts decision that it
was unconstitutional.
