it's private property, and to read it's dd- vertisemonts one would think that it was through pure benevolence they operated q [ all.
 Through tonight's News Commissioner Weatherly has stated again his claims in favor of the contract and in closing says that the question as to whether not the new rate is just to the people, is for eign to the purpose of his Investigations and that it is the fact of reduction and the equity of application which he is endeav- orng to ascertain. To me, it seems that MT. Weatherly is getting a little off the subject as the general dissatisfaction of the people is not in the fact that the large consumer ges a bigger discount but that in return for what the city is giving the company giving nothing.
 But, be all these things IS they may, as has already been brought to the notice of the public, the city can only request and not demand concession from the com panv but in the case of the present con- tract no concession has been made. The is giving absolutely nothing in re- turn for it's 10 years of guaranteed serv- ice for what reductions have been made would have come as necessity anyway within a short time. The question is, are the people of Birmingham to sit still and let the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company do absolutely as it nlaces. or are they going to rise up as men and repudiate the contract given way by the commission.

CAPITAL. REQUIREMENTS
At Least a Little Cash Needed Even
 in the Lemonade Business
From the Washington Post.


 Hey. Bill. can you change five centsr'
 So one youthful amateur lemonade mer- chant from his place of business on the edge of the sidewalk calls to another boy in the same business half way down the block
 When hot weather comes the enterprise ing small boy gets his mother to make up a bucket of lemonade for him and puts in "a chunk of ice, and he sets a couple of soap boxes on the sidewalk and lays a board across and puts the buckets and a couple of glasses on that. and then he stands and shouts Here y'are Ice cold lemonade, cent "a glass;"
 Whatever he takes in is all. clear profit, because his mother furnished the stock in trade, and it would seem as if all tie boy had to do now was to take in the money and drop it into his pocket But really something more is needed.
 Even if a man had a store full of goods given to him for nothing. he would still need little ready capital to meet t.e current demands of business, and though on a smaller scale this is equally true in the amateur lemonade business. Without an available reserve one Is liable to bo hampered right away, as had happened in this particular case of the boy that was just holering to Bill
 The first customer that came to him was a man who offered in payment Q nickel, and as it turned out the boy didn't have cent of capital to fall back or. not a cent; he was doing business on less than shoestring: and so he had to hol- Ter to the next boy to get change for I5 cents.
 With this transaction completed the boy did have one cent and if the old two- cent coins were still in circulation and one of these had been offered to him lie could then have made change with ne. trouble at all, and probably before the day was over he was able without calling for help to make change for g nickel.
 But still this all goes to show that In the amateur lemonade business, as in any other, to do business right It Is nsces- sary to have little money reserve to draw on, to start the business going aud to handle 1t as it comes along.

about fifteen acres of his orchard from
the late freeze last spring by the use
of fire pots. When the cold wave
left Medicine Hat last spring the
weather man at Council Bluffs tele-
phoned to Mincer to look out for it.
Mincer Immediately got his fire pots
ready and wired to Kansas City for
4 car of crude oil. He was ready for
the cold wave when it stuck. For
about two weeks he kept the oil pots
burning night and day for the greater
share OF the time. BY this means the
temperature in the orchard was kept
above the freezing point all through
the danger period. At times the tenn
perature inside the orchard was "a

sntire cost OF keeping the temperature
above freezing for two weeks was
$500 for the Is acres. or about $3l

WHY DOES FENCE WIRE RusT7
II You Know, NJ. L. King, Of the State
Agricultural College, Wants TO
AA2e from You.

II You Know, M. L. King, Of the State
Agricultural College, Wants TO
Hear from You.
Did you know that the bottom wires
of a fence seldom rust as badly as
those higher up? Do you know why?
NJ. l.. King, of the Iowa Experiment
Station, is studying the problem Of the
rusting Of fence wire. He has found
that wherever the wires are covered
with grass or weeds or vines they do
not rust nearly 80 badly as when they
are entirely exposed to the air. Near
Ames there is twelve year old fence
that is partly covered with hop vines.
The wires under these vines are as
good az when first, put up. Those in
the other parts Of the fence are very
badly rusted with the exception Of
the bottom wires, which were pro-
tected by the grass.
II there are any other such cases
in the state Mr.. King would like to
hear of them. Write direct to NJ. L.
King at Ames, Iowa, and give him
any information along this line that
you may have. Mr.. King 10 going to
devote considerable time to this prob.
lem and hopes to devise some practi-
cal methods Of preserving fence wire.

AN AmEs HEN MAKES aoop.
"Frssh Eggs Every Day" II the Other
Iowa Hens Will Follow

Aer Example, :
4 hen at the Iowa State college
poultry farm has laid 230 eggs during
the past year. She isn't SO very much
Of a hen either-to look at. No feath-
cred legs nor rufded topknot. Just
plain ordinary Plymouth Rock hen.
But she was right there on the nest
230 days out Of the year. Two hun
bred and thirty fresh egg breakfasts
who wouldn't keep hen for that!
Those 23O eggs weigh Sc pounds. or
more than eleven times 40 much a.
the hen herself. At an average price
of rs cents dozen for the eggs. the
hens work for the year amounted to
$4.75 Her feed cost . dollar and
half. A net profit Of 1926 a year
isn't 80 bad for q hen. Some men
don't do 30 very much more than
that. Four hundred hens like this
one would give yearly profit Of
$1,000. There are q great many men
in Iowa to whom = salary Of that
size would look pretty big. 1t might
be hard to find four hundred hens
that would lay 23o eggs apiece dur
ing the year, but four hundred hens Of
any kind scratching around in the
back yard would add a. right COM
Portable chunk to anyone's salary.
Al a matter Of fact, eggs from 4
hen like this don't have to be sold
for Is cents dozen. They are worth
that much apiece for Matching pur-
poses. Cockerels out Of her are worth
$40 each. and are cheap at that.
When. Iowas 23,000,00O hens get to
laying 200 eggs apiece every year, in
stead OF Ga a. at present, the cold
storage trust will be put out Of bust
ness, and We can have fresh egg
for breakfast every time We happen
to feel like 1t. Such an increase in
tho egg producing ability of the Iowa
hens would add between thirty and
forty million dollars q year to the in
come of the state. It won't come all
at once. Of course. but with 4. few of
these Iowa State College hShs to set
the pace, the rest of the Iowa biddies
will soon be hunting for q record to
cackle about.
