Homeseeker. Settle T, aI,n.u.

The crop diversification campajgn is one or the greatest enterprises that has ever been undertaken for the up- building of this state" said W. N. Malone. Splendid results will fellow. The campaign will prove not only a good thing for the farmer, but 1t is impressing upon the business men of the cities the fact that as thrives the farmer so thriyes the merchant and manufacturer. Eyeryb ody knows that all wealth comes out of the ground, but many men have failed to appreciate the Importance of cooperation between the Cities and the rural districts.
 "Thousands of homeseekers from ether states have settled in Alabama within the past few years, but the tide Of desirable farm settlers will be much greater from now on, for the crop di- versification campaign is an excellent advertisement for Alabama. It may be of interest to know that within the last 10 years something like 690 fam lilies from the north or west have set tied in Limestone county aloue. It should not be long before homeseekers are coming to this state by the thou sands"

Horseback Riding for Health

"The time is coming when doctors will prescribe horseback riding as a treatment for the bad flyers of good flyers, who ride in automobiles, but do not take enough exercise walking o, otherwise" said man in middle life.
 Take 1t from me, that of all the things I have tried for a sluggish, tor pid liver, a horseback ride-not one but several--will bring happier results than any physic. Not only that, bu. it is an excellent tonic for nerves as a very common ailing in business and social life is known.
 The eXportation of thousands of horses for use in the European war Will greatly advance the price of good horses, and even plugs will relatively reel the results of exhausting our sup ply of first-class animals, as il will come to be Hobsons choice, 'you'u nave to take what we have for many purposes
 And saddles and brides are nuch higher, even the 'government stores stocks are held much higher by deal CTS who purchase at government sales 1 am told by a local dealer"

Enlightened 2 Missouri

Bills for improving Missouri dogs are being viewed favorably by the leg islature of that state, justly famed as the "houn' dawg" state. The St. Louis Dispatch wants to know why some attention is not paid to the cats of Missouri. The question is a pertinent one and might be considered by other legislators besides those in Missouri. For instance, if the "solons" of Alabama would devote some of their time to "cat and dog legislation, instead of devoting all of it to perpetuating statewide ''drouth," they would win the regard of great many people who now hold them in little esteem.
 Alabama does not need state cat tery, as proposed in Missouri. At least, nothing of the sort should be established until our educational sys- tenn is improved and certain other backward tendencies of the state are corrected, so that eastern newspapers monwealth to use as horrible ex- ample"
 However, both the cat and the dog are destined to be with us more or less permanently and attention is be- ing paid to these four-footed friends of man by farsighted legislators. It is proposed in Missouri that the own CTS of dogs pay yearly license of $1 be devoted to state kennels where su- perior breeds of dogs may be devel- oped, eliminating in the course of time CUTS of low degree. New Jersey is figuring on a cat tax of S1 a year, per capita, which would doubtless re- suit in a quick reduction in the un- necessary cat population. No person in his right mind would pay tax on eat that he did not deem necessary to his welfare and happiness. Recourse to deep water, chloroform and other means of snuffing out cat life would be extensively made, with the re- suit that only such cats as were in a sense worthy to live would survive.
 State kennels and state catteries are not vital to the future of any state, but in a welter of freak legislation" laws of this kind would be preferred to extreme measures directed against the liberty and happiness" of citi- zens by legislators in Kansas, Ala bama and other states.

Germany's Position Revealed

The explanation by Germany of hel purpose in declaring the submarine blockade on England is the most sig nificant communication from the wal zone since the beginning of hostilities In the course of the note to the German naval attache at Washington occurs this passage:
 Since the shutting off of food supplies had now come to a point where Germany no longer had suf- ficient food to feed her people, it became necessary to bring England
 to terms through force.
 How significant this admission is, IS easily apparent. Despite the as- sertions that Germany had enough food at hand for year scarcely six months after August the need has be- come so direful that she is forced to confess it to the world. It is the first confession of weakness from the Ger mans and memorable indeed must have been the pressure that forced it.
 This reveals where the British fleet has been and how efficacious has been the blockade undertaken by England at the beginning of the war. The whole weight of the British empire has been resting on the neck of the German people.
 England will not accede to Ger many's proposal to permit foodstuffs to enter. As we'll ask cardplayer to discard the ace of trumps. On the contrary, England will tighten her grip on the Teuton throat, nor will it be relaxed until the dove of peace has settled on stricken Europe.
 That this will be costly is not to be denied. Germany can and doubtless will work havoc with British shipping, but that by the use of submarines she can seriously disarrange the food supply of the United Kingdom is hardly to be believed. The English blockade of the German coast will be much more effective than the German efforts and the latter is destined to learn this to her cost.

Telephone Manners

"The telephone has certainly become most important factor in cosmopol-
 itan life" remarked business man. and each year it's use becomes more varied and extended
 This public utility is indeed a bless
 ing to the business man and to the
 home, and all progressive communi- ties appreciate it's service But like all modern improvements it is some what complex; and patience and intel ligence are required for it's effective operation.
 Heads of business concerns who wish their organizations to become really efficient should make sure that everyone, from the foreman to the of-
 flee boy, acquires the knack of answer ing the telephone in satisfactory man rer. In fact. I believe that telephone courtesy shows to better advantage in the business world than any otLer ac- complishment that may be acquired The volume of business done in this
 manner certainly justlfies extra effort in acquiring a pleasing style of telo- rhone use. Indeed I believe good tel
 ephone manners of employees is one of the best assets that any business or ganizatiOn can have"

From the Chicago News.
 No man favors expansion-of his bald spot.
 But a girl never thinks she is too young to marry.
 A wise youth passes up the doll and marries a girl who can broil steak.
 You may learn something by trying to teach an old dog some new tricks.
 Any old thing that goes against the grain of porcupine gets the worst of it.
 Every time a man picks up few cents worth of experience he drops dollar.
 Although women are great bargain hunters, cheap man appeals to none of them.
 Handsome is as handsome does, and the handsome woman usually does as she pleases.
 Cats certainly have their divinely ap- pointed use in this world, but as vocalists they are failures
 Occasionally a fool man marries wom- an because she has more sense than he has-and he is never allowed to fore>et it. At the age of three score and ten a man may realize how little he knows-al- though his wife could have told him many years earlier.

A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING

From The Cleveland Plain Dealer
 The auto owner: No, I don't want your book. I would much rather forget my car troubles than perpetuate them in black and white.''
 The book agent: But this little book is universally handy, don't you know. It's not merely a record, it's a lot of other things. I don't suppose there S anything that could happen to an auto- mobile without some one of these de- partments covering it. You see, there are headings here for virtually every thing. Take look at it."
 "A heading for everything, el? Don't you believe it. Here, suppose I'm driv- ing a car along country road Sun cay afternoon. A parachute jumper goes up in a balloon from a nearby recreation park He swings off with the parachute and drops down squarely on my auto top and crushes 1t. What's the heading for that financial item, eh ?''
 Just a minute, sir. Here you are. Put it down here, sir. Overhead ex- penses. ''

Making the Farm Attractive

The public schools of Alabama will observe one day in March as Better Farming Day"
 The crop diversification campaign which has aroused high degree of enthusiasm throughout the state will result in more profitable farming and better living conditions. Diversified tion in the long run will add greatly to the net income of the farmer. The problems involved in diversification will be worked out successfully with the aid of experts provided by the government, the agricultural imple- ment manufacturers, the state con- missioner of agriculture and the Polytechnic institute at Auburn; but every practical suggestion from any source for bettering farm conditions will be welcomed by every husband man and every one interested in or ganized effort for increased produc- tion per acre.
 In setting aside day as Better Farming Day." March 12, State Su- perintendent of Education w. F. Feagin has done a good thing, and in a bulletin sent to the teachers of Ala bama he urges a general celebration in the public schools. MT. Feagin asks for Suggested programme" which shall include discussion of improved farming methods-methods whereby the earning capacity of the tiller of the soil may be increased.
 For many years past there has been steady tide of population from the country to the city. The rapid growth of large cities at the expense of the rural districts has been widely dis cussed by statisticians, political econ omists and sociologists, to say noth- ing of the plain business man and the average farmer. Most boys raised on farm and sent to college have, after graduation, settled either in large city or in a manufacturing district.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-02-17

eral New York pastors spoke of the proposed revival and referred in glow ing terms to the Rev. Sunday. The Rev. Christian F. Reisner, pas tor of Grace Methodist Episcopal church, was of the opinion that Sun day would bring the most abundant fruitage in New York that one man ever gathered. He said:
 "Smug religionists are positive that Billy Sunday can be successful every where else and yet fail here. That settles some church workers into ex- cused loafing. Our churches have gone to seed on rhetorical sermons and quartet music. New Workers respond to straight from the shoulder Gospel preaching as readily as any people on earth.
 "Too many churches have become bloodless machines through orderli- ness. When Billy calls folks mutts, Holsters and tells them to beat it, the sleep rhythm is broken. Results show that his language carries conviction to the hearts of the people. That is all language is for anyway"
 MT. Welch in protesting that Sun day was not grafter told of some of the revivalist's large charities.
 In all big cities sentiment will be found divided on such questions as whether or not outside talent" so to speak, should be secured for nonsec- tarian revivals, but the majority usu- ally decides in favor of the revival specialist.
 Billy Sunday will be invited to New York and virtually all the evangelical churches will unite in supporting his work while there
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-02-17
New York to Have a Revival

It is generally agreed among the Protestant pastors of New York that a revival of religion is greatly needed in that city and discussion is now in progress as to organization and campaign methods. Many prominent ministers desire to have Billy Sunday as the central figure, but not few want to see a revival with MT. Sunday left out,
 The Rev. Charles w. Welch, pastor of the Park Avenue Presbyterian church, believes there are ministers in New York able and ready ito in augurate and carry to a successful issue such a revival as would pene- trate to every corner of this city," and he believes this could be done without the assistance of Billy Sun day or any other imported agency"
 "Of course, we need revival of re- ligion both within and without the churches" continued MT. Welch. "A member of the committee which ar ranged MT. Sundays advent into Phil adelphia said the other day that re- vival was already in progress in Philadelphia before MT. Sunday ar rived.".
 Mir. Welch suggested as leaders for . city-wide revival Dr. Jowett and Dr.. Coodell, both noted divines and popu- lar pulpit orators. Last Sunday sev-
