 This brings us to the election. Although there were four candidates the great body of voters were not satisfied with the nominations and many so called dark horses were suggested.

It will be of interest to Alabama to know that tho design for the official china has been submitted by Mrs. Cantrell, and money promised for this is ordered paid to her on demand. The design for the platter is beautiful. It has for a center the Confederate seal. the four Confederate flags, and two likenesses of Jefferson Davis, one when a youth the other in later life The border is made of the seals of the II seeding states and the houses occupied by President Davis. Each state decides on the design for her own plate, and these, with the platter, will form the set of Confederate china.

| To those who have seen housewives of New Orleans and Baltimore and some other old cities which delight to continue scene presented on Fourth avenue be- , tween Twentieth and Twentyfirst streets Tuesday will be especially interesting. The new market project is to have it's first trial on that occasion and it is hoped ! that the support of the women of the city will be secured so that it may be the beginning of a great market place. Many housewives and women who are interested in big civic movements are an- ticipating the success of the venture and anxious to give it every encouragement. It is a fact well known that the purchase of fresh vegetables and fruits is not a question that may be settled entirely by the expenditure of money. So little en- couragement is given to the farmer that his apples oftentimes decay on the ground and his vegetables fade because the mar ket price and the small demand make him feel that it is not worth while to at tempt to sell his produce. Meantime the housewife is using more or less stale pro- duce. The street market promises to solve the problem both to the advantage of the l farmer and the consumer. and if the
 women of Birmingham will but make it
 a practice to motor or drive down in the
 early morning and do their buying for
 the day, there will be an improvement in
 the healthful freshness of the vegetables
 used on Birmngham's tables and in the ease with which a variety may be se- | cured in season.
 A woman who is able to see the advan- tage to both the consumer and the home grower and to discuss the market project with the experience both of the house. keeper and the farmer is Mrs. Barnes Morgan, who may be called Birming- hams woman truck farmer. Every one who knows this attractive matron knows that her hobby is her farm-13 acres of land on the Twenty-seventh street road which she has had in cultivation for three years and has superintended entirely unassisted She employs the constant services of one man, with the added assistance of several day laborers during the time when the gardens require weeding. The farm has been financial success since the first season, and besides has given her pleas ure and entertainment, according to her statement.
 When approached on the subject of the home growers market yesterday Mrs. Morgan smiled brightly and said. Why,
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-11-26

1 yes, I think it great thing for us farm ers.' I shall have my wagon there Tues day morning from to 10-the hours that it will be open-with my man in charge, and I shall be there myself to witness
 the success that I hope 1t will prove. I
 hope every woman in Birmingham will
 market there. The constant complaint of
 housekeepers is the inability to supply a variety of foodstuffs for the family; with the encouragement to the farmer which a free market brings, there will be more vegetables produced and 1t will be easier to secure them while fresh. And that is
 a. great boon. I did not realize until l
 began raising my own vegetables really
 vegetable appetizing'
 What will you have in your wagon Tuesday," Mrs. Morgan was asked, and when she said Onions" 1t ap- peared that as a vegetable vender she was to be somewhat limited as to va riety But" she continued, T shall also have a quantity of sweet pota- toes. I have rather specialized this fall with onions Yes I am rather given to specializing, though I always have the usual mark etable vegetables as well. Last spring I sold my violets one day for wedulng-all that we could gath er--and they brought me $7.50. I also supply the Gold Lion tea room with vegetables and eggs and the famous pies, too, are made during the season with apples from my place. My apples i, have been quite source of revenue , with me"
 Mrs. Morgans resourcefulness was again evident when she mentioned the project which Is occupying much of her attention at the moment-the cul- ture of mushrooms. These she is grow ing in her barn in town. "I cannot show them to you now,' she said, be cause they are under glass, but ar Christmas time I expect to have quan- titles of them.'
 This is enterprise, truly-a woman who conducts a successful farm, a small patch of ground" which moro than pays it's expenses and who yet has time and energy and willingness to devote to charity and civic mat ters Her work for the Creche this fall and for free park concerts and for other worthy projects requiring energy, enthusiasm and brains, make one know that she is a very rare woman, one who combines practical ideas with the most attractive graces of womanhood.
 That she will be in the market place Tuesday watching the sales from her farm is an evidence of her progressive ness And there Is an altruistic spirit, too, in her eagerness for the success of the market projects. as she wishes for the easier and more systematic arrange ments of the housekeepers to be ef- fected.
