ANNISTON
City Within It's Income-Car Line Ex-
 tension LikeIy-soidiers Encamp

Anniston, September 10.-(Specia1) The report of Auditor John Weaver, who has been working on the books of the city of Anniston, the audit hav- ing just been completed, shows that the city has lived within its income during the past year, from July 1. 1914, to June 30, 1915. The report is now in the hands of Mayor Wikle.
 The extension of the car line to the Anniston Country club by the Alabama Power company at an early date is considered very probable. An ordinance contemplating the extension has gone to it's second reading before the city council and there Is no opposition to the extension. Sewer extensions in this direction are also to be made by the city.
 Batteries A and C. First field ar tllery, Alabama National Guard, which are now encamped at Camp Morgan in this city, will go out on the firing line for a days instructions Satur- day. They arrived in the city early this week and have been kept busy in the camp receiving detail instructions.
 Judge C. S. Leyden, who was recent ly appointed judge of the court of common pleas here, to supplant jus tices of the peace, has qualified for the position. He went before the county oommis sioners this week and secured permission to use the circuit court room. which will be vacated by Judge H. D. Merrill.
 The Calhoun county commissioners made a tour of the county Thursda y for the purpose of inspecting the pub lie roads. which they are now plan ming to improve in all parts of the county. They have built about 40 miles of modern highway In the past five or six years.
 Congressman Fred L. Blackmon. who has been making a tour of his dis trict. states that sentiment is strong in this state for a rural credits bill, and that this will probably be one of the first measures to come before the next Congress.

ONIONS LIKE COOL WEATHER
Plant Will Stand Much Heat After
Making Good start-WlIl Not Keep
Unless Properly Ripened.

Onions grow best in relatively cool
weather and require an abundance of
moisture during the early stages Of
growth. However, they will stand con-
siderable heat after they have made
a good start. and ripen better If the
weather is relatively dry at the time
they mature
This makes them an important crop
in central. and northern latitudes,
where the weather of spring is cool
and moist, and a dry period normally
occurs in August or in early Septem-
Der. However, the season must be
sufficiently long for the onions to ma
ture before the autumn rains set in.
or they are likely never to ripen prop
erly.
Unless properly ripened, onions will
not keep. For northern localities it
is sometimes necessary to use only
the earlier maturing varieties.
The above statements refer to the
growing of ripe onions. Green onions
reach edible size in comparatively
short time, and can be grown during
the normally cool and moist weather
of early spring in central and north
ern latitudes. AS a commercial crop,
they are Of minor importance COM
pared with ripe onions.

sorssH INJURED BY BoRERs
Whole Patches Of Vegetable May Be
Destroyed by Insect In Few Days
plan Of One Farmer.

Some years the Hubbard squash
vine ia badly injured by the squash
borer. The moth lays her eggs on
the outside Of the vine. and In a few
days the eggs hatch into small grubs.
These Immediately bore their way
into the stalk where they live un-
seen and for time unsuspected.
For while the vines grow we'll;
then. as the borer continues feeling
on the inside OF the stalk. the vine
withers and dies. Whole patches OF
squash may be destroyed by these
borers In a few days.
In 1914 one farmer made tests Of
early and late planting. The early
paintings were begun In April and
continued into May. Sweet corn was
used as a companion crop. with the
early paintings to furnish shade for
the squash vines. but every vine ex-
cept one was destroyed by the borers
in all the early paintings.
He made late paintings Of seed
from June 1 to July 20. which was
the last planting of the season. In
order to hasten the development of
the plants as an Offset to late plant
ing, separate hills were prepared.
Holes were dug from eight to ten
inches deep. which we're filed with
rich soil thoroughly mixed with chick.
en- manure. but he left saucer-like
depressions as an aid to watering
the plants in dry weather. This plan
proved very serviceable, as no rain
fell during six weeks Of midsummer.
The plants had to be watered fre-
quently to keep them vigorous.
Notwithstanding the drawbacks of
late planting and dry season, this
crop Of Hubbards was among the best
he had ever raised. Hardly a vine
was attacked by the borers. The
period of squash-moth flying was over
before the plants we're above ground.
