In a southern city, big business In

The result is that business on the side

but Sherley Is chairman. and thus
his plan may perhaps be regarded
as that OF the administration. His
idea Is TO create an oficial budget
committee under the rules Of the
house, consisting OF the chairmen Of
all committees in the house dealing
with appropriations; this COMMITTEES

sion and 10 estimate the amount OF
revenue likely TO be raised for the

the committees leaving the commit

how the allowance Of each shall be

Fitzgerald, who has a sort Of Tam

surround himself with an enlarged
appropriations committee and con-
troll all the appropriations himself.

The following extracts from an ar

There were q number OF prac-
teal suggestions for winter feeding:

tree. bags crocheted OF twine To I'LL
with suet and fresh pork and suet
tied on the branches OF trees. For
the farmer there was a brush and
weed piles forming a place TO feed
and shelter the quail. and thus keep
these valuable birds from being Inn
prisoned under deep snow and sleet
and there frozen and starved: and

shelters are used in large numbers

There were a dozen large water

prove that the quail OF Michigan
