FITZGERALD SAYS ALASKA
 R.R. APPROPRIATION IS SURE
Reported That Alaska Northern Offered To Government For Amount Of Bonds
 And Some Cash.

amount of the bonds, which is four and half millions, and for three hun dred and sixty thousand dollars in cash to enable a payment of the out standing obligations. While this offer is not reported officially it is pretty safe to regard it as the truth. The administration has given out no opinion as to what it will do with re- spect to that road but it seems to be pretty generally assumed that it will be taken over. Matters connected with the government railroad are now sizzling since doubt was removed by Secretary Lane as to the immedi- ate construction of the railroad and things will probably move rapidly from this time forward.

VOTE FOR WOMEN
 IS DEFEATED
CARRIED MAJORITY BUT FAILED TO GET NECESSARY TWO
 THIRDS VOTE.

WASHINGTON, an. 13.-AlthOugh the woman suffrage failed last night to get a two thirds majority of the house it received a majority of the votes east. The vote was two hundred and seventy four for to two hundred and four against. This vote has greately encouraged the women who now declare that they will make the question a national issue and con tinue their work until they secure what they are seeking. The debate went on for several hours. It seemed remarkable that the representatives really went into the subject with real warmth and sometimes passion. There has seldom been such interest dis played in recent days as was mani tested by various classes of the com munity. Until the vote was taken the galleries remained crowded

KEITH TALKS OF PLANS FOR FUTURE Thinks Bankers Should Lead Diversification
 Movement
By "Hop''

James Keith, Jr., of Anniston. newly elected president of the Ala Bank CTS association. believes that the south's hope of prosperity is dependent almost soley on diversification of crops. He takes the position that the bankers must not only lead movement to this end. but must become determined that the move ment shall be successful.
 Mir Keith declares that for the prosecu- tion of the work the 5000 appropriated by the bankers in convention will be insuf- ficient.
 'It is my puspose,' he added ito call a meeting of the eight vice presidents in the immediate future, and go over the sit nation with them. We will discuss the best moves for educating the Alabama farmer against raising cotton to the ex- clusion of everything else and ways and means. One thousand dollars is not large enough sum with which to do eff fective work.
 'On diversificaton depends the hope of the south If our Farmers raised what they require for food and cotton simply for the acquisition of a surplus in cash, Alabama would be the garden spot of the world The bankers are planning to es- tabish diversification in Alabama and it must be done as a result of educa- tion."

 Tt is my understanding, he added, that government troops numbering 15oo men will reach Anniston in July. It is probable that they will. remain until late fall. It IS probable too. that the site will become permanent government site and will be used for troops from year to year. The guns to be used in Anniston will be three-inch guns, capable of throw ins a shell five miles,

SMOKE KEEPS FRUIT SAFE
Scientific Orchardists Have Found a
Way to Prevent the Damage
From Frost.

Scientific orchardists have devel-
oped method of spreading blan-
ket of smoke over their trees when
frost threatens, thereby keeping
them warm and saving the fruit.
These men have learned that the dan
ger time for their fruit is upon clear,
still nights when the thermometer is
below 40. When there are clouds
there is little danger, for these hold
the latent heat of the earth and pre-
vent it from radiating into space.
But when the skies are clear the heat
goes hurtling away and the danger
Of frost impends.
So the fruit men have developed
a substitute for clouds. They manu-
facture smoke to take their place.
This is done by burning straw that
is somewhat damp and therefore
smokes great deal as it burns.
Great volumes OF the smoke boil up
and spread out upon the fields. 1t
often happens that many men in a
fruit belt may be burning these
smudges at the same time and that
the whole region may become COW
cred with the smoke. So many a
countryside puts on a smoke blanket
that it may keep itself warm.
Yet this smoke imparts no warmth
of its own to the orchards. It mere
ly serves the purpose of preventing
the radiation of the heat that has
been stored up in the ground since
the time that the sun last shone
upon it.
