Crops in bad Condition

You can hardly pick up paper
without seeing a string of suggestions
as to what the farmer can plant at
this season for CROP" said Circuit
Solicitor Joseph r. Tate. However,
there are no advices as to how the
farmer is going to get his land in shape
to plant anything. That is the main
issue now. There seems but little
chance for another planting or another
crop as long as it continues to rain
every day.
Il believe farmers are in worse con-
dition with their crops than they have
been in many years. While there are
many farmers who did not have their
crops washed away, yet in these in
stances they have been prevented from
working them for such length of time
until they are badly grown up in grass
and weeds"
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1916-07-28
Social Ardor Somewhat Dampened

The prolonged rainy season seems to
have played havoc with a good many
forms of endeavor," remarked o. D. Will
son of Birmingham, land it is to be
hoped that there will soon be cessation
of wet weather.
"a damper has been thrown over
many forms of outdoor recreation, and
many persons who are inclined socially
have apparently felt at loss as how best
to entertain themselves at this season
without recourse to the usual forms of
pleasure enjoyed in the open. But with
the coming of cloudless days all uncer-
tainty will cease and gloom, speaking
literally as well as figuratively, will be
speedily dispelled.
Social life in Birmingham is, I be-
lieve, exceedingly lively at all seasons
of the year, but it does not reach its
height until the fall and winter months.
Though society has been rather dull here
of late and with the absence of some
of the buds from the younger set at
the summer resorts, social activities have
seemed rather slow, but with the return
of clear skies and bronzed beauties from
the beach, all inertia will give way to
the glad whirl of social pleasure One
fete will then follow another with dizzy
speed"

Difficulties of Escape

Il had the pleasure of meeting Cap
tain Paul Koenig of the German sub
marine Deutschland in Baltimore the
other day." said Judge B. NJ. Allen yes
terday. II am keenly interested in the
situation which confronts him in his eff
fort to get away from this country in the
face of the allied warshps lying in wait
for him. However, I believe he will be
able to do it successfully, in spite of
the serious difficulties confronting him
Captain Koenig is a small man, but he is
extremely capable. He shows that he
has wonderful nerve as well as being
one of the most able naval officers of
Germany. In view of the fact that the
water at the three-mile 'limit is very
shallow it will be very difficult for the
Deutschland to make it's escape"

MEREDITH AS A TALKER

From BOX Hill and Its Memories
Keats, Meredith, Stevenson" by Sir
Sidney Colvin, in the August Scribner
Fiction Number.
From the 20 years of his later life dur
ing which Meredith used to make me
welcome whenever I like to come, what
do I chiefly remember? Well. 1 have
never attempted to play the Boswell to
any one, being always, I suppose, too
keen on trying to bear my own part
Nor do I think that any pains could
ever have succeeded in Boswellizing
Meredith. Remember that to make the
one and only Boswell it took the one and
only Johnson: the talker of all takers;
that is, most accustomed to deliver him
self in brief, conclusive, as it were, port
able sentences, each rememberaly laying
down-say rather hammering down-the
law on this or that question of life or
conduct or opinion. Meredith's talk was
not at all of that kind. He was fond.
as all his readers know, of composing
condensed oracular aphorisms like those
of the Pilgrims Scrip in Richard Few
erel:" but these were literary products
the fruits Of hard meditation during soil.
tary walks or in the-study. His talk was
above all things spontaneous, abundant
inventive, leaping and flinging itself from
idea to idea and clause to clause. 1t
ranged from lusty common sense to ex-
travagances of the widest, most voluble
and exulting burlesque fantasy. The
more overpowering of his monologues
sprang sometimes from the mere overflow
of animal and intellectual spirits; some.
times, before mixed company which in
cluded strangers, 1 fear it must be owned
that they gave an impression of proceed
ing from a desire to show off and play
fireworks. l do not think that impression
was quite just. The truth is that Mere
dith cherished an ideal of what the brill
lance of social intercourse ought to be,
which corresponded not at all to the ca
capacities of ordinary persons but to the
quite abnormal and superathleti activi-
ties of his own brain.

THE PLACE For HIM.

The wight who's never known to smile
Any while,
Casts gloom upon his neighbors who,
Spite of rue,
Still find in life some bits of joy
Naught may cloy.
He ought to take himself away
And display
That trouble-freighted face of his,
Doleful phiz.
To those who feel as bad as he,
Nor can see
A single ray of earthly hope
Where they NOPE.

BIRMINGHAM THE PLACE

From the Tuscaloosa News.
In an interview published in Fridays
Age-Herald Oscar Wells, president of the
First National bank of Birmingham,
urged full cooperation on the part of the
bringing the rural credits bank for the
southeastern states to Alabama. Mr..
Wells is of course working to get the in
sttution for Birmingham, but he takes
the position that if other Alabama cities
are going to make a fight for the bank
they must all work together first for the
state and decide later which city is to
be the favored one.
The attitude Of Mr.. Wells is as COM
mendable as his advice is sound. He is
not trying to block the efforts of other
cities in the state which may try to Sc
cure the bank; though setting forth Bir-
mingham's claims, he makes it clear that
that city is willing and ready to work
first of all for Alabama.
This commonwealth certainly does not
want to see repeated the folly that char
acterized the efforts of some of the cities
to secure the federal reserve bank.
When that contest was going on, certain
cities actually gave their Endorsements
to places outside of Alabama when Bir-
mingham was making a spirited effort to
obtain the prize 1t may be that this di-
vision was not responsible for the fact
that the reserve bank was located in At
lanta, but it certainly did not help this
state any.
So far as the News is concerned, it be-
lieves that Birmingham is the logical
place for the rural credits bank, and also
that Tuscaloosa will lend it's support to
Birmingham claim. 1t is true that Biz
mingham does not lie in the agricultural
belt of Alabama, but it must be remem-
bered that the region to be served by
this bank embraces all of the south
eastern states, and Birmingh ham does lie
near the centre of this division. But be-
fore we get into an internal wrangle over
location of the bank all Alabama must
pull together to bring it into the state

Eel Paso, Texas, Sept. 1.-TWO
hundred lawyers of West Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona, will take ad-
vantage of the low railroad rates in
effect in October on account of the
meetings of the International lrri-
CATION Congress, the International

hotel as the place. The association
will be formed in the morning and

Reservations for 200 banqueters

Besides the leading lawyers of the
