The South's Wheat Production

The south's oats crop exceeds that of last year by 51,000,o00 bushels, but in wheat production there has been a falling off this year.
 The Baltimore Manufacturers Rec ord presents the wheat and oats totals for 1915 and 1914 and it is seen that the decrease in wheat is in states out, side of the cotton belt, while in the cotton states where crop diversified ton is the practice, there has been appreciable increase this year over last. In 1914 Alabama raised only 403 900 bushels of wheat. This years harvest yielded 1,O31 ,oo0 bushels two and half times as much as in 1914. Georgias s wheat crop amounts to 3.279, ,00O. as compared with 1, 1,694,00o bushels in 1914 Arkansas produced 2.130. .000 bushels of wheat. Tine Texas yield is 2O,743,000 bushels, Last year it was only 14,066,O0O bushels. Mis- sissippi is one of the few states that neglects wheat almost entirely. In 1914 it produced only 13,000 bushels and this year it was only little more than double-27, ,000.
 In Kentucky the decrease was from 12.54O,O ,O0O bushels in 1914 to S,991,0 900 bushels in 1915, and in Missouri it was from 49, ,333,00O in 1914 to S7,4oS,0o0 in 1915.
 Oklahoma had a bumper crop last year and this-47, ,975. .oo0 bushels in 1914 and 46,555,000 in 1915.
 Wheat can be grown profitably in Alabama and it is believed that the acreage sown next fall will be greatly increased. Alabama's oats crop this year totaled S,S45, 900 bushels-a little more than last year. The crop di- versification enthusiasts should not rest until Alabama produces as many bushels of wheat as it does oats.

Crops and Business Conditions

The federal reserve boards report on crop and business conditions throughout the country, by reserve bank districts, shows a marked im- provement on the whole as compared with the report issued in the spring. Crops in some sections have had a backset, but the yield of grain and cotton will average we'll.
 The New York Reserve bank re- ports increased activity and better employment of labor in many indus tries. Bank deposits have increased and collections are fair. In Pittsburg and Cleveland the large industrial plants are booming, but the best average of prosperity is in the Minne- apolis and the Kansas City districts. Minneapolis is center of unusual ac- tivity and Kansas City is not far be- hind it.
 Indications point to further inn provement with the approach of autumn. It will be reflected in general trade as well as in industrial opera tions.
 Here in the Birmingham district the industrial situation improves steadily. Several iron furnaces, long idle, will resume operations this month, and In August the pay rolls total will be appreciably larger, it is estimated, than it was just before the European war started. With bountiful crops in Alabama the fall trade outlook here abouts is exceptionally promising.

est upbuilder that Mexico has ever had.
 He made of the republic strong power and, being constructive and resourceful, he was always advancing its material interests and promoting its general welfare. But in Diaz the presidential habit became a consum- ing passion. Had he been willing to retire from office after serving his people with distinction for a long period, he would not have felt the necessity of fleeing his country and living abroad.
 Mexico has not known what stable government was since Diaz was forced to abdicate. A few of the Mexicans who knew General Diaz in the early days of his presidency will recall his masterful strokes of policy employed in stabilizing a government that had been little more than chaos. He was truly great man and his memory will be sincerely cherished by his old partisans.

Stopping the Visitors

This is the sentiment of John Dead en of Des Moines, Ia., according to press dispatches which tell of the un- usual method employed by him to ob- tain -surcease from the annoyance of uninvited guests.
 With the Iowa state fair coming on MT. Deaden got out an injunction preventing Mrs. Jane Latham and her two children from the country to visit his family, so the dispatches state.
 The supposition that Mrs. Latham has been regular annual visitor at the Deaden home during the fair time, is justifiable.
 Also the incident offers sugges- ticp to others who may be frequently the viaitms of the uninvited guest. There are a few ple-fortunately they are few-who will descend upon defenseless kinfolk or acquaintances, unannounced and without any regard
 
 to the convenience of their hosts, merely because it suits their purpose, or saves hotel bill. Occasionally it is country people who do this, but just as often it is the city family which camps indefinitely in the country home.
 A sense of obligation of the host compels the average family to extend every courtesy to the guest, even though unwelcome, and it is rare in deed that any have the courage to frankly state the true status of af- fairs.
 But now that the sturdy Iowan has

Consumptives in the West

The United States public health service states in a recent bulletin that 10000 consumptives annually go west to die. It estimates that the tubercu- lous population of Texas and New Mexico exceeds 50,000, and from 20 to so per cent of the families there have some member who is afflicted with the disease. There are more than 2000 consumptives at Albuquerque, more than 5000 at Fl Paso and more than $500 at San Antonio.
 The situation of these unfortunates is bad enough when they have means or friends who will care for them, but a large number are sent from other parts of the country by private or public charity and not only arrive at their destination in dying condition, but penniless. This puts a burden on the taxpayers of resorts, which they are beginning to resent. Los Angeles has been conducting a campaign to keep consumptives away, and the statement that the climate of Los An geles is not beneficial to them is quite true. Climatic conditions in parts of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas are, however, ideally suited for such in valids.
 The educational propaganda to keep consumptives in the advanced stages of the disease at home is having some effect, but large number of tuber- culous patients die in short while after reaching the west. In the early stages of the disease the climate in certain parts of the west is highly beneficial and cure may be confi- dently expected, but there is no hope for those who wait too long. Forty six per cent of all deaths occur in thirty days after arrival. Other patients die on trains.
 Competition in the resort cities makes it almost impossible for con- sumptive to get work and this is an- other fact which charitable organiza- tions have to reckon with. No doubt, the increasing burden laid on the population by health seekers is hard to bear without protest, but humane motives triumph. Unfortdnates are always cared for and private charity Is extensive.

Cotton Crop Forecast

In the spring some of the large cot ton growers predicted that this year S crop would not exceed 10000,000 bales. This estimate was based on the sup posed reduction in acreage and on the reduction in the use of fertilizers. But conservative observers of ex- perience in cotton statistics forecast 12 ,000 00O to 13,000 O00-bale crop. A prominent Birmingham man, whose business brings him in close touch with the cotton farmers and who has been very successful in previous fore casts, published in The Age-Herald about two months ago his estimate of the 1915 crop. It was 100000 bales He has never changed his figuresN The governments forecast, an. nounced yesterday, calls for crop of 12,500,000 bales. The agricultural de partment seldom misses it far, and it is an interesting fact that the Bir mingham statistician and Uncle Sam are so close together now.
 The reduction in this years cotton acreage is stated by the department to be 5,S71 ,00O acres or 15.7 per cent 
 as compared with the 1914 acreage.

A Beautiful City

'T have had occasion to visit Bir- mingham frequently and every time l come here I am impressed with the city, both as business center and as a place of attractive residence districts, said Dr. l.. Brand of Maysville, Ky.
 "Birmingham has bustling ways and is much like a progressive northern city, but I am told that nearly all the executive officers of the big industries, virtually all the officials of the big banks and a large majority of the popu- lation generally are southern born and reared.
 As for the beautiful landscape effects here, no city in the south and few any where in this country can be thought of as in the same class Birmingham is d city of rare charm indeed"

Military Preparation

Since the beginning of the war there has been much talk of increasin 2 tho American army and navy" re- marked Douglass Wingo of Birming ham, who is preparing to enter An aapolis.
 This, of course, is of great interest to all of the fellows who look for- ward to military or naval career. It is true that no decided step has as Vet been taken by the government to- ward increasing our land or sea forces, hut the matter of preparedness is now receiving special attention by those in charge of military affairs. One of these Indications is that the government has recently notified reserve officers To- cated in different parts of the country te' hold themselves in readiness fer active service in case of need. Another is the appointment of extra training officers for military and naval schools
 q am taking a course at the Marion Institute and was very much interested to learn that the government had ap- pointed a special army officer to take charge of instruction there.

Militnry property Relng Returned

The activity of the military authori ties in prosecuting in the federal court all persons with military property if their possession is having marked ef- feet in causing such property to be re- turned to the several armories of the city, said Capt. J. V. Evans.
 While for the past year but little property has been taken, there is yet some that is unlawfully in the posses sion of civilians. It is remarkable that men willing to buy government proper ty can always be found, especially when such buyers cannot but know that the seller has no right to dispose of it, However the convictions in the state and federal courts already reported and with other cases pending which believe will result in conviction, will in my opinion have a decided effect on buyers and sellers in the future

FOURTH OF JULY TETANUs

Frcm the Pittsburg Post.
 The American people have cason to
 congratulate themselves over at least
 one achievement. and that IS me rapid
 disappearance of Fourth of July tetapas.
 While the total casualties of the glor-
 ious day are less than sdarter of what
 they were five years ago. the deaths from tctanus have shown a much greater re-
 duction. In 1903 there were AT Foui tn | of July victims of that dread maad5. ill 19as the number had been reduced to 130. 1 while from last seasons celebration there were but three This is life conserva- | ton in the true sense of the term "Why not entirely eliminate the disease this year?" asks the United States public health service.
 | The blank cartridge wound IS tha great i cause of Fourth of July tetanus. When
 driven into the tissues the wadding carries
 with it innumerable bacili, and the ab- SOFT ton of the poisonous products given
 off during the growth of these organisms produces the disease. The bacln thrive only in the absence of oxygen. It is for this reason that the physician enlarges the wound of inlet and after removing
 all foreign material, dresses the injury in suci. manner that development of the organism is inhibited In order to accom- plish this it is usually necessary to admin ister 8 general anaesthetic. Anti-tetanic serum is of great value as a prophylactic measure. but it should be given soon after the receipt of the injury.
 Parents should realize that Fourth of July tetanus is easy to prevent, but ex- tremely difficult to cure. No blank cart ridge wound is to trivial to receive careful medical attention. However slight the injury might appear summon a physician
 and at once adopt energetic measures. Reliance upon home treatment may prove disastrous and result in the sacrifice of life. In 1903, before the widespread rec ognition of the possibilities of preventive treatment, one case of tetanus developed
 to every four blank cartridge wounds re- ported in 1914 there was but one case to
 every 40 such injuries. This is the meas
 ure of the success of preventive treat
 ment
