BIRMINGTIAM'S NEW CITY
 BEAUTIFUL DEPARTMENT

these plants alone will not produce fruit unless some plants bearing staminate flowers are planted with them. It will be best to plant two rows of pistillate plants to one of staminate.
 October to November
 The plants do best if they are set out from early in October to November 1 Set out this time. they get well rooted and make good growth during the fal and winter, and will yield some fruit next spring and full crop the following sea son. If the plants are to be cultivated with a hoe, they should be set out two feet each way, and should be confined to single crowns. The runners and new plants are produced at the expense of the parent plant, and this tax on the energies of the latter diminishes their capacity for producing fruit. The removal of the runners as fast as they grow will in- crease the yield next year. Before setting out the plants, about half the length of the roots should be cut off unless they have been previously. pruned.
 Varieties
 Excelsior, the earliest variety Helflin s one of the most popular varieties follows excelsior, and Heflin's Early, Klondike Hoffman, Brandywne, Bismarck, Howell and Enormous are all good varieties. Hov- erland and Candy are probably the best late varieties.

Every home garden should have a small patch of strawberries. Fresh luscious strawberries, plucked from one's own garden are very acceptable additions to the spring breakfast.
 Method of Propagation
 Strawberries are not difficult to grow, if the plants are planted properly and given the necessary subsequent attention. They will grow on any good soil. but they succede best on a fertilef sandy loam containing an abundant supply of humus The soil should be prepared deeply and liberally fertilized with thoroughly routed stable manure. Phosporic acid and potash applied with the manure at the rate of about 300 pounds to the acre will insure the production of strong, healthy plants Fresh stable manure should never be used for fertilizing strawberries In the south.
 ia Propagation
 Strawberries aK best prepared by means of rooted plants, which are usually runners from the parent plants which take root at the sides and the middle of the rows on which the plants are grow ing. The plants can be obtained from any reliable nursery It will be best to get in orders early so that good plants may be obtained. Be careful not to get all plants that bear pistillate flowers, as

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, October 15--(Special)-A call for a public mass meeting to consider the cotton situation has been issued here and 1t will be a preliminary to an effort to get the bankers. merchants and farm CTS to pull together in the present cotton crisis. Financial ruin faces great many farmers if they are compelled to sell their cotton at prevailing prices and 1t is a recognized fact that something must be done to help them hold a large Iortion of their crop for the return of normal conditions. The buy-a-bale move nent has relieved for the present some of the smaller farmers but the cotton that has been cared for in this manner is a very small per cent of the distress cotton in sight.

Federal League Forces Minors to
Tie Men They Sell to Major
League Contracts
DAVID HARUMS OF THE
GAME ARE BUSY NOW
Only = Week Remains in Which
to Grab Players From the
Verdant Bushes
BY RALPH u. YoNK Err.

These do be busy days for the
David Harums OF the major and min.
or leagues.
These are the days when the buy
ers and sellers and traders OF the
big and little leagues must close the
sales OF players they have started
or allow the players to go to the
draft.
The drafting season comes Sept.
10. No player can be sold by minor
league club after next Wednesday,
which Is 20 days before the drafting
period. II the minor league clubs
have material TO get rid or rney must
close the sales for il before Wednes-
day or allow their men to go 10 draft.
The majors must close the purchases
OF the; players they want before that
time or take chance on getting
them in the draft.
The draft is big lottery In which
the major leaguers draw for the
minor leaguers they want and then
pay various prices for the men they
get, the prices varying according TO
the class Of the league from which
the men rise. Players drafted from
the three Glass AA leagues, Interna-
tional, American association and Pa
cific Coast, bring $4,000 each.
In ye olden dayes this time OF
the year brought announcement at
ter announcement OF the purchase OF
players by the Detroit club from the
minor league clubs In order to pro
tect, the players they wanted and
could secure at the price they felt
they could pay But because Of the
Federal league such announcements
this year are few and far between.
Among the players whose purchase
has been announced are Jacobson, the
Chattanooga outfielder: McMullen,
Tacoma third sacker; Cunningham, a
dence pitcher.
The names OF these players we're
given out by President Navin only
after they had been attached to con-
tracts with the Detroit club. Nothing
makes an announcement OF the pur-
chase Of . player official nowadays
but that players signature on the
Contract Of the club to which he Is
sold.
The signing OF players for major
league clubs has been taken out or
the hands OF the majors and placed
IN the hands OF the minors by force
of circumstances. In former times
\ the majors used TO buy a players re-
lease and then sign him. Now they
Insist that he shall be sold TO them
already signed up.

There Is In Chicago the remnants

four still to struggle for the hundred

One has notched 101 on two coca

casual golfers who play once or twice
