ANOTHER ORDINANCE ON WATER QUESTION Not Allowed to Cut Off Supply for Bills of
 Past Quarters

owing to the fact that the Birming- ham Waterworks company now is cut ting off water, 1t is alleged, where con-
 sumers are refusing to pay disputed water bills of past quarters, the city commission yesterday passed an ordi- nance making such action unlawful. If is contended the water company can cut off water for refusal of con- sumer to pay a current bill but for a bill in arrears such cannot be done. The illustration Is used that if man rides a street car to a given point and does not nav his fare then gets on the cAr to ride back and ofOers to pay his fare back he cannot be elected from the car
 because he did not pay his fare going out.
 The ordinance is as follows:

RidiculeS Mr. Lusk'S Plans
 For Courthouse EleOdtOrs

Tt was suggested that such unlimited
 progress up and down might overtax the
 capacity of the present courthouse struc-
 ture The grain elevators in Guntersville,
 from which baliwiclS the senator halls, are
 peculiar and from their motion he may
 have gotten his idea. Or could the sugges-
 ton may have come from the disposi-
 tion of some members of the legislative
 to go up in the air at the beginning or
 the session and never come down down till the close. Airships go up. prices rise. our
 hopes are elevated and fancy flies with no limit of it's flight. However, the result of human observation is that all that goes
 up must come down
 Prices fall hopes are shattered and gravity will bring down the airship, and facts call back the fancy of the most ar dent reformer; and we believe that the courthouse elevator that goes up will, of necessity, come down.
 | Tt was in his search for judicial reform l that the senator discovered our elevator, and while we are unable now, to see any connection whatsoever between the two.
 we must have faith that at some day in the not far future we will find enrolled upon the records of the Alabama senate a bill purportng to give the people of Bir- mngham and Jefferson county an ideal | judicial procedure, and an unprecedented uplft to every condition of life and untold happiness to countless thousa nds. all 'ba sed upon and arising from the single proposi- 1 ton that the Jefferson county courthouse should have two elevators. one that would go up only and one that would go down only"

The interview of Senator John Lusk anent the elevator service at the court house, as published in The Age-Herald yesterday morning, caused much comment among the court officials It will be re- called that the senator and others of the reform now in session at the Motion hotel visited the courthouse of Jefferson county Thursday. Mir. Lusk suggested that new courthouse was needed and gave his views on the elevator service.
 A prominent county official, who is so modest he did not want his name used, in discussing the matter yesterday. said:
 ''The power and aptness of some minds to at once recognize deficiencies in any of the workings of this life, and to be able forthwith to suggest the remedy, never ceases to be a wonder to the ordinary mind The people of Birmingham and Jef- ferson county have ridden or avoided the elevator of their courthouse, with a real ization of it's inadequacy, but without the
 Senator Lusk of the legislative judiciary committee came, saw, rode and without a moments hesitation solved the problem. He said, There should be two elevators one should go up only. one should go down only Just how far the one going up only should go he did not say, nor how far down the 'one going down only should go.

points of Fourche Mountain Poultry Farm. The grounds and houses are frequently sprayed with lime and the roosts are whiteWashed and rubbed with coal oil Open front houses are used exclusively. In some cases can vas is dropped during cold weather, but it has been found that the houses which were not protected with glass or canvas contained the healthiest fioeks.
 The poultry houses are both large and small, always being proportioned to the size of the flock which they are to contain. Fancy breeding pens con- tain only a male and a dozen hens. The large commercial f1ocks of 500 layers to a pen, of course, have no males. All select males are kept in separate inclosures, from which they are sold for breeding purposes or sent to slaughter if they fail to come up to requirements.
 Mir Radcliffe combines utility with show points, in so far as these do not conflict in actual practice. He has succeeded in breeding f1ocks which conform to the best show types and which yield the highest number of eggs.
 Experience on the Radcliffe farm shows that for egg production eggs should be matched during March, April and May Earlier birds will mott before they begin laying and will be drones all winter, and later matched birds will not lay before the following summer, as rule. Special hatchings for breeding stock are con ducted during fall to insure early molt- ing the following fall.

NOTICE TO CONFEDERATE
 SOLDIERS.

As your county Jerk I wish to call the attention of all old soldiers that the law which formerly excluded old soldiers from a pension, who were worth $400 or more was changed atthe last session of the Legislature so that the following conditions obtain:
 You are allowed $500 worth of per sonal property and your homestead. In the country this homestead may consist of 160 acres of land or $2,500 in value. In cities it cannot exceed one acres in extent or more than S2,- 800 in value.
 My object in calling attention to this is that many worthy old soldiers may not be aware of this law and would miss this pension on account of not knowing it. 1 shall be pleased to reneder any of them any assistance l can if they will call on me. Remem- Der that the pension board meets the first Monday in July and you should get in your applications and proof at once if you care to make application.
 With best wishes,
 Herbert s. Turner,
 County Clerk
