Berton Braley is perhaps the
leading hunorist poet in America
today. And he so young only
80!
Bert Braley has seen some life
and work. He was born in
Madison, Wis, went gayly and
blithely through the city schools
and graduated from Wisconsin
University by the skin of his
teeth, as he says himself.
He began that funny thing you
call work in 1905 when he went
to Butte, Mont, and landed job
on the Mountain Ethat's the
name Of the newspaper as a cub
reporter. After year, the edi-
tor fred him. Said he would

never be a newspaperman, and as
to his poetry, which Braley had
begun to write, FPoor!P
This made our hero so blamed
mad he went over to the rival
paper, forced himself into a job
and SO eYerlastingly scooped the
Inter=Mountain from day to, day

ognized as the best reporter in
Montana.
But the thing next to his soul
was poetry-mostly- funny poe
try. and presently the big comic
papers in the East and the maya
zines were grabbing off his stuff
as fast as he could write it.

WAREHOUSESOVER
 STATE MAKE MONEY
Only 1 Out of 30 Fails to Sue ceed, According to Re-
 ports at AnnistOn

Anniston. August 22.-tSpeciaL)-Out of 20 or 30 warehouses in the state represent ed at a meeting of the Farmers union at the courthouse Wednesday night the re- port showed that only one of these ware houses had failed to make money. All the rest had declared a satisfactory divi- dend. The managers were represented by managers or proxy, and the consensus of opinion was that the business of the past year had been very satisfactory in- deed, with bright prospects for the future season.
 The farm demonstration work was in- dorsed by the committee in this important project, and larger funds from the fed eral government for the further extension ofuhis movement were asked. Commit tees on good roads, warehouses farm demonstration work and cooperation all made favorable reports.
 The meeting, which was principally of business nature, was largely attended by the farmers from various parts of the state who are in attendance at the an- nual gathering of the association here.

.O'NEAL PREPARES
 CAMPAIGN SPEECH
Governor Will Assist Maine Democrats in Achieving
 Victory in September


 Montgomery, August 22-(Special) )
 Governor o'Neal spent all of this nrorn-
 ing at his home preparing a campaign
 speech to deliver In Maine next month
 where he will assist the democrats of
 that state in achieving victory in
 the election which will be held on Sep tember '. The governor will speak al
 three cities in Maine, at Auburn on
 the 2d; Portland on the Sd, and Au-
 gusta on the 4th of September.
 Maine will be the first state in which
 Governor ONeal will speak this fall in behalf of the democrats of the na- tion. While assisting the party in that
 state to win victory in the general
 election on the 7th the chief executive of Alabama will also set forth the claims of Gov. Woodrow Wilson for the presidency.
 It is probable that Governor O'Neal
 will deliver speeches in a number oi
 other states in the north and west be. fore the November election. He has declared himself in readiness to fol low the dictates of the party leaders in aiding in the national campaign and | it is expected that he will be absent from his office a considerable portion
 of his time during the months of Sep tember and October.
 Governor ONeal will probably go di- rect from the meeting of the bar as- sociation at Milwaukee to Maine, as he is scheduled to open in that state on the 2d
 On account of the governors ab- sence from his office Wednesday morn ing there was little news of interest
 to be given out by any of the attaches of the executive department. The gov
 ernor had several callers, but they did
 not finger long after learning that
 the executive was at home.

 AT BROWNSVILLE Accepts Invitation to Ad- dress BlOunt Voters lsA Saturday
wILMER L. MOORE, pre~

Blountsvile, August s22.-(Speeial. Jon Saturday, August "A, Congressman R. P. Hobson will be at Blountsville to make an address to the people of Blount county and surrounding territory. Considerable interest is being manifested in what he will say to the voters of this district in this, one of his first campaign speeches. Some time ago when he made his an nouncement for senator from the state at large the interest in him and his race became much more manifest, and it has been fortunate thing for the people here that they have been able to get him to come and address them at that time.
 The Ninth District Agricultural school will begin the session on September and the prospects for one of the largest open ings that we have ever had are very bright indeed. Last year the total en- rollment for the year was 16s, and the in- dications point to an opening fully as large as the total enrolment for the last session.
 The outlook for the crops in this sec tion of the county are very encouragine if there is late fall.
