MISS AGNES NORRIS
laid special stress on the necessity
for physical well-being in order to
| accomplish life's work with success.
You must have a good body to do
things. Efficiency meant good
blood and good physical body.
Those nations and those people who
had marked the pages of history
with great accomplishments had
been of high physical development
as we'll as mental. That the effici-
! ency that came with physical health
and strength would give to women
more time to work with the leagues
II and unions; more time for the ac-
II complishment of good things.
A very pleasant feature of the

TWO DIARIES. SELL
 CERTIFIED MILK
Jefferson County Milk Commission Places Stamp of Approval
 on Diaries

The Jefferson county milk commission granted a months permit to Frank L. Moses of Shades mountain yesterday to sell certified milk, making two Birming- ham daries now retailing. this quality of milk. The first dairy was the Cloverdale and now these two compose the daries that have the privilege of printing upon their labels, Certified by the milk com mission of the Jefferson County Medical society,"
 After a careful investigation and in spection of the premises, employees, stock and facilities used by the Moses dairy, the commission will allow certified milk to be sold in this city from this dairy for the month of November The mem- bers of this commission are City Health Officer Dr. Robert Nelson City Bacteriol- ogist and Chief Meat and Milk Inspector iE. M. Duncan five members of the Jeff ferson county committee of health. Drs. T. D. Parke, J. Ross Snider, Frank Lup- ton, T. D. Talley and R. M. Cunning ham.
 Certified milk, which is more expensive than the ordinary product, is sold chief ly for babies, young children and invalids, whose sole diet consists of this. The following are general rules set by the milk commission for certified milk:
 The commission will allow maximum of 15,000 germs per cubic centimetre, which must not be exceeded. This standard must be attained solely by scrupulous cleanliness, proper cooling and prompt de- livery.
 The milk "certifed'' by the commission must contain not less than per cent of butter fat, and must have all other char acteristcs of pure whole milk. Milk must not be sold as certified more than 24 hours after it has been drawn from the COW.
 "Certified' milk must not be delivered to customers before 6.30 a. m. during the months from April to october, nor before ' a. m. during the rest of the year, and bottles must be placed in the ice box by the person making the delivery or de- livered direct to some responsible person OF the premises.

ANOTHER CHANCE
 FOR WEATHERLY Some Discrepancies in the Prices of Sweet Potatoes THE BESSEMER CASE Every City Has Nearly the Same Trouble, Where Produce and
 Consumer Get the Worst
 of the Deal
THE BESSEMER CASE
BY WALTER HARPER

Washington. october 31.-(Special)-On the eighth page of Saturday morning Age-Herald I read in a special from Bes- semer, Ala, that the farmers at Besse- mer have a large surplus of sweet pota- toes that they cannot sell because the price is so low. They claim that they cannot get more than 50 cents per bushel for them.
 Turning to the market page of the same issue of The Age-Hera I find that sweet potatoes on Morris avenue are quoted at 90 cents per bushel. I will wager the nice fat job I have that the Birmingham consumer is paying within a dime of 50 ceYts a peck for sweet potatoes The Birmingham consumer is paying no less than Sl 50 bushel for his sweet potatoes.
 Now I am shooting off at long distance, but there are conditions here in Washing ton and I have known the conditions well enough in Birmingham to feel satisfied that am stating a truth. There is some thing wrong in all this.
 Dr. Harvey w. Wiley recently made the statement here in Washington that the profit realized by the middleman who delivers milk in the District of Columbia Is larger than the entire cost Of produc- tion. In other words, the retailer gets more profit than the price that is paid the producer. |
 If we must pay Hgh prices for food stuffs, the producer should get the benefit. The cantaloupe for which the grower gets less than cents should not cost the con sumer in Washington p cents Yet this was the cast last summer. Somebody IS getting a big and unreasonable profit.
 The business men of Birmingham should see to it that Jefferson county growers are given the preference in the purchase of home grown products
 Birmingham and the district need all the food crops that can be grown on the lands. There will never be an overpro- duction if Birmingham buys stuff that is grown at home in preference to stuff that is shipped in from other states and sec tions.
 The Birmingham Chamber of Commerce has devoted great deal of talk attention and work to the encouragement of the development of the trucking industry in the district The movement can never be successful if the merchants buy stuff from other states and the home producer is not encouraged with the best prices that car be paid.
 It would be interesting to know how many car loads of sweet potatoes were shipped into Birmingham from other sec tions of the countrv 5fgfur f past week and for wi m1r= thar rents per bushel was 43is 7ile at 1er sweet potatoes were r1tting n lte 'e because the grower c1Gad pot raaf1 than 50 cents.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Lemuel P. Montgomery
To the Editor of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor or The Age-Herdld.
 The writer of the editorial, Names of Alabama Counties" was evidently mis- led by typographical error in MT. Rob- erts' article on the same subject for he wrote: Surely Lieut.. Lemuel P. Mont gomery of Tennessee got "a big memorial
 when the capital county was named in his honor.'
 The only regiment of regular troops with General Jackson at the battle of the Horse Shoe was the Thirty-ninth regi- ment of infantry, commanded by Col. Williams, Lieut.. Col. Thomas Hart Ben toI Maj. Lemuel Purnell Montgomery.
 After the battle had been raging for some time, Jackson ordered charge on the breastworks of the Indians. which was very galantly executed, and Maj. l.. P. Montgomery of the Thirty ninth was the first man to spring upon the breastworks, where. calling upon his men to follow. he ref eived ball in the head and fell dead to the ground.
 General Jackson was warmly attached l to Major Montgomery, and to prevent his | body from being mutilated, had it buried, | nie earth leveled above 1t, brush burned upon the grave and army wagons driven | over it.
 1 Years afterward the citizens of that vicinity. with a military escort, disin- tered the remains of Major Montgomery ! which were identified by negro. who was | with the Indians in the battle, by the bullet hole in the forehead, and with sol emn ceremonies buried the remains in the
 fort yard of a residence in Dudleyvile | Ala. 1 Wilcox county was named for Lieut. Joseph M Wilcox of the United States army because he was killed in canoe | fight with the Indians at a point in ths
 Alabama river now within the boundarie. of Wilcox county.

NEW RAILWAY FOR CHATTANOOGA A New Street Railway Sys- tenn and Interurban
 Connection

| Chattanooga, Tenn, October 31.-(Spe- cial )-That Chattanooga is to have With
 in one year not only new street rail-
 way system, but moreover interurban connections with Dayton, Tenn. Dalton, Ga, and other nearby towns, is now prac- tically an assured fact. The local trac- ton addition is an absolute certainty ana
 only a drastic change in the plans or 1 C. E. James and the capitalists who are building the lock and dam at Hales Bar,
 Tenn, at a cost of s6,00O,oOO will prevent the completion of the interurbans. The articles of incorporation, issued to | c. E. James and others, have already
 been received from the secretary Of state and only the assured action Of the city commissioners in allowing the franchises upon the streets and thoroughfares' With in the corporation limits delays the actual | inauguration of the work.
 The new system is one of the many exploits of the syndicate of eastern cap- italists who are simultaneously building the lock and dam at Hales Bar, creating new manufacturing and residence sub urb. and also a complete summer re- sort upon Walden's Ridge, in close prox- unity to the famous Interstate club. One of the branches of the practically assured system will scale the historic heights of Lookout Mountain and thus
 interest all tourists and travellers. The present method of ascent by the incline
 now in use, with S5 per cent grade. has dong Injured Lookout Mountain as sum- mer resort. It is the plan of the new company to run its regular service cars directly to the summit by means Of circuitous route, which will be unequaled in the world in a scenic way.
 The new. system is one of the many advantages which Chattanooga anticipates as the result of the tremendous deve-
 opment of hydro-electric power in this section. Local capitalists feel confident that the huge northern syndicates who are developing the 300,000 horsepower in close proximity to this city will bodily remove here manufactories and concerns to utilize the current.
