A GREEN, DEEP POOL,

From Down the Year, by c. Du Fay
 Robertson.
 A little pond lies over here to the left where we can just see a glmmer of green ish silver. The water lies low among rushes and coarse grass, and the green falling upon the smooth surface makes it look like some kind of fairy alloy that has the sheen of silver and the green of the rush. l have seen green gold, but never before have I seen green silver So We have found something more rare than You cannot see the sky in this little pond; i; the grass and rushes have crowded up and into the very water so that you can see only their green reflection. If We could, somehow, put our heads out on the end of a pole and turn them so as to look straight down, we would see the sky then. and an amazing deep sky it would be. But, unfortunately, the heads are fas- tened, and it is not safe to get one feet wet at this time of the year, and we have no wading boots But no matter. A green deep pond is more striking than a blue deep one because it Is not so common The frog hushes as we approach, and ufi- less you are prepared for it-there That Is what l was going to tell you He was in the grass right at the edge of the water and stayed there until our big. clumsy feet dumping down, threatened to crush him. Then he leaped, sprawling through the air, but diving cleanly head first into the water.

New Era in States Agriculture

When the farmers of Alabama be- gan to turn their attention to food crops on commercial scale in addi- tion to cotton a distinct advance was made in our wealth producing agricul- ture; and now stock raising is an- other branch of husbandry that is be- ing started and one that promises large returns.
 The boil weevil menace put the cot ton farmers on their mettle and the result was a diversification of crops. Three years ago more corn was planted than in previous years. All falfa was found to be highly profit able, and other crops, hitherto neg lected, began to be cultivated.
 But owing to improved methods of cotton farming the boil weevil has not played the havoc that was feared, and Alabama's cotton crop this year will be, if not the largest, not far from it. The pest, therefore, brought valuable compensation in that it caused the farmer to raise more hay and corn and by using more and bet ter fertilizer to make bale of cotton to the acre instead of bale to three acres as in other years.
 There has been a wonderful in crease in the money value of Ala bama's crops as compared with few years ago. In 1907 the value was extimated at $1OO,0OO,OO0. Last year the crops brought approximately $2OO ,OO0, ,000 It is probable that there will be a still further increase in the money value of Alabama crops this year.
 It has been demonstrated that beef cattle as fine as Kentucky or Ten nessee raises can be grown in this state, and within four or five years Alabama beef will be widely known for it's choice quality.
 At the rate agriculture is progress ing it will not be a great while before Alabamas farm products will be worth, with good weather conditions, $500, ,000, ,000 a year.

From the Mobile Register.
 crats are said to be urging the President to consent to an adjournment of Con- gross by August 1. The majority of the House democrats are backing the pro- posal
 The opinion is generally expressed that boom crops, the installation of the new banking system and favorable action by the interstate commerce commission will result in renewal of business activities if there is temporary surcease from the menace of national legislation such as Is under consideration in Congress. Further more most of the members are anxious for personal as well as political reasons to get back to their homes. They have been there almost continuously since March f. 1913. It is also pointed out that the members should have an opportunity to get on speaking terms with their con- stituents before the election.
 Much sympathy Is felt for the House members, for they would have completed MT Wilson's legislative schedule long ago. The House is held up by the interminable debate in the Senate, where political fence building is all the rage at the present time
 No one can tell what President Wilson will say, however. He appears to regard duty as religion. Long hours of work and broiling weather in the hottest town on earth seem to have no effect upon his devotion.

THE BIuE GRnTT0

Naples Correspondence Washington Star.
 For moment after entering the grotto it seems to be all that the enthusiasm of preceding visitors has printed it. The light from the entrance gives the water a marvelouse blue tone impossible to de- scribe, and the oars are as of silver. But the boatman quickly makes the round of the room and Is soon back near the opening, where already q dozen other boats are collected. while more are enter ing.
 The biueness fades as the grotto fills Away back, opposite the entrance, a can dle is burning, and two youths in negligee stand specially on a ledge waiting to be bargained with for a dive into the water for lire. This is reputed to be a re- markable phenomenon, the boys body showing silvery in the refracted light be- heath the surface But, 50 quickly are we rowed around that there is no chance to ne egotiate for the dive, and almost before We realize that we nave been inside of the famous grotto azura' of Capri we are lying down again in the bottom of the boat. the oarsman Is pulling at the chain and we have popped out into the sunlight. Our visit has tasted just six minutes.
 Obviously. it does not pay to visit the blue grotto in the height of the Neapoli- tan season. Probably it Is well worth the time, trouble and most of a special visit to Capri of two or three days, hiring of a small boat to make the giro" and en- able one to see the blue grotto at an hour when it is not crowded with boats and also to visit the other grottoes.
