FLORENCE NORMAL
TEACH MARKETING
Rural Department Will Give
Four days Course Free
to Farmers

Florence. November 4-(Special.) 1.-THE
rural department of the Florence Normal
school is offering a four days course of
study and lectures in the marketing of
farm products, beginning December Il
and running through December Is. This
is the first definite course in marketing
to be offered to the public by any insti-
tuition of learning in the state.
The general principles and methods of
marketing will be discussed every day.
Each days work will also deal with mar
ketilg certain class of farm products.
December 12-Grading and marketing of
cotton.
December 13-Marketing poultry, eggs,
cream and farm butter.
December 14-Marketing live stock.
December 15-Marketing fruit and truck
crops.
The average farmer knows but little
about our complex system of marketing.
Very few efforts have been made toward
standardizing farm products for the mar
ket. There is practically no cooperation
among the farmers and, if possible. less
between business men and farmers.
Realizing these conditions, the normal
school has planned to offer annually this
course ins marketing to assist our farm
ers in learning the how, the what and the
when in marketing. This work will not
be given in an antagonistic spirit to-
ward any previously established system
of marketing, but an earnest effort will
be made to bring together every year the
leaders from all classes of people who
produce, handle or consume farm prod
ucts for the purpose of studying how we
may systematic and economic all along
the way from the producer to the con-
sumer. -
There will be no fees charged for the
course.

S Sanitary, Convenient,
NOn-Wasteful and Ser
viceable
For the Best Results the
Mash Must Not Be AL
lowed to Form a Compact
Mass
by ROBERT ARMSTRONG
Expert POultryman and Writer

Almost every progressive poultryman
agrees that the use of dry mash is the
most generally satisfactory method of
feeding chickens, from the two-day-old
chick to the mature fowl. The dry mash
is usually kept before the birds at all
times, consequently it is essential to keep
the feed clean and sweet, easily Access
sible to the fowls, and in receptacles that
are convenient for the attendant to re-
plenish. number of practical designs
for feed hoppers are described in this ar
tcle with instructions on how to build
them.
Successful, experienced poultrymen
have long since realized the Importance
of feeding their flocks balanced ration,
which is to say, food supply composed
of various ingredients, carefully proper
toned to meet the fowls bodily require
ments No one grain is a complete ra-
ton, and even if such grain were to
be had it would be unwise to feed it eX-
clcsively because it would tire the appe-
title chickens taste Graves variety
the same as the human appetite and if
sufficient variety is not supplied the
fowls appetite becomes jaded and it fails
to eat in large enough quantities to main
tain a high state of productiveness.
When planning system of poultry
feeding two other factors must be given
careful consideration: First, the cost of
the ration, and second, the amount of
labor involved in placing it before the
birds 1t is conceivable that a ration
might be adopted that would give an I'M
usually heavy egg production, but costing

be placed outdoors they must be proof
against wind and rain and if rats and
mice abound the hoppers must be fitted
with some means of closing them against
these pests at night.
Next to keeping the contents clean, the
most important feature about a mash
hopper, and one that is frequently over
looked, is some provision to prevent the
mash from going "fat'-that is, COM
pressed into solid, compact mass, either
by it's own weight or by that of heavy
grid, such as is frequently installed to
prevent waste. The mash must be light
and flaky or it will not be relished by
the fowls. Chickens will eat a mash that
is compressed, of course. just as we hui
mans when put to necessity will eat dis
tasteful or poorly cooked food, but they
will not eat it in large enough quantities
to meet the demands of heavy egg pro-
duction.
In the three types of mash hoppers il

all of which may be said to be automatic

quantities of mash. and at the same time
distributing it In light, flaky condition
To accomplish this it will be noted that
the meShod of distribution is from the
bottom, and that the greater part OF the
weight of the mash above is supported
by the V-shaped sides of the storage
compartments. In figure l the mash is
stored in compartment "a; it passes
through the opening B." into space
on either side designated as &c" whence
it is eaten by the fowls. Only small
quantity of the mash accumulates in &C.
consequently it is bound to be light and
flaky, since there is no weight on 1t from
above The mash stored in A will not
fall through the opening 'B' except as 1T
is needed.

be used indoors, in which case 1t is not
necessary to build the platform nor the

Much Activity Marks Clos
ing of the Amendment
Fight in Alabama
educational amendment

''Will the educational amendment
carry?"
That is the question being asked by
practically every person in the state, who
is interested in the educational welfare
of the many thousands of children who
receive their early training in the public
schools.
OF the five amendments to the constitu-
tion to be voted on Tuesday, the educa-
tional amendment, providing for local
S-mill tax for each county desiring to in
crease their school facilities, is consid-
cred the most important. Following a
closeup campaign Monday, the matter of
Alabama's educational needs will be put
squarely up to the voters. The question
remaining to be solved is viii they vote
Yes for the 3-mill school tax amend
ment?
1t is generally conceded that the
amendment will carry by a safe ma
jority, but, like all other measures ii
has opposition, and opposition that will
mean work to overcome. There are those
whom the workers in favor of the amend
ment say are opposed to its passage be-
cause they do not know what it means
to them, their children and the educa-
tional uplift of the state.
1t has been pointed out that if every
young man and young woman in the
schools and colleges of the state would
use their efforts today and tomorrow TO
influence friends who are undecided in
the matter, that the effect probably
would be enormous. There are thousands
of friends of the boys and girls off in
college that have not had the opportunity
of hearing this amendment explained,
and through letter from the boy or girl
in school, a vote may be cast for educa :
ton.
There are hundreds of young men and
women in the educational institutes OF
the state working their own way to
higher education and IDEALS In most in
stances the roads over which they must
climb are rough, strewn with many rocks
of disappointment. The state should help
these worthy young men and women, and
by the passage of the amendment they
will receive help, probably not them, but
others that are coming on behind.
Educators and professors have con-
tended that a child's primary education,
if properly given, is worth more in the
after years of life than the college edu-
cation. For to get through college, the
primary training must be had. Statistics
show that the educational facilities OF
Alabama are far inferior; that in no
state is there more illiteracy than in
Alabama. The supporters of the amend

I have seen many teachers with all
vitality gone becase of their work. They
have come to me at the end of the day,
tagged, spiritless and yearning for sym
pathy.
Parents have scolded pupils have tan
talized, and an unappreciative public has
had no word of communication. On one
occasion remarked to one of this kind:
you know you have As young weighing
ones. Christ, the Master Teacher, had
only Il, and they were u grown men.
Yet of this small number one was a
complete failure.
Then, too, if you have done all you
could, 1 wouldn't bother further about
Johnnie, who has been tantalizing you.
If God is satisfied to have the little fell
low act SO terribly, why, would drop the
matter"
So. while those who build the Parthe-
non, st. Peters, and the Kremlin are to
be honored, and while those who take
colors and create beautiful pictures and
those who take sound and make glad the
earth with song, all are to be remembered
as great benefactors of the race-yet, he
who works in stone or color or sound is
not to be compared with him or her who
works in finer material, the souls of peo-
pie. Bramante Christopher Wren, Ra-
phael Handel Phidias, all were genluses
of great rank, but they cannot compare
with Christ who worked with the ma
terial of human nature and forever
crowned with grandeur the profession OF
teaching.
The discouraged teacher is always at
that period of life where her illusioned
youth is no longer embracing everything
with an exuberance.- Her intellect IS
clearing and her illusions are becoming
destroyed. She has come to the period
where she is thrown more and more upon
herself.
Now, if she is of the noble spirit va
riety she will give over all stupid re-
sentiment OF course her pride will per-
NIT dsdain but she must, for the sake
Of here and hereafter, fall back on that
very thing which she must come into
contact with daily, namely, human joys
and human sorrows. And these are al
ways new with poetry, pathos and humor.
For it must be remembered, as someone
somewhere probably has remarked, that
while the self-elect despises the herd, IL
is Christ, the God-elect, who dies for it.
It is refreshing to read Henry Ward
Beecher'S noble tribute to the teacher ana
his and her work:
THE older l grow the more feel that
though a mans work in the school does
not show Immediately, though there is
less ostentation and less publicity about
it than about almost any other work. and

Cut Trees With Dynamite

From Engineering Recoru.
Instead of an ak and saw to re-
move the tops of trees that are to be
used as masts in logging operations,
dynamite is used to shoot off the tops.
After the branches have been re-
moved. a rigger climbs the tree, with
set of irons, to the point where it
is necessary to cut off the top. Here
the trunk is usually about 10 inches
in diameter. The rigger ties a string
of dynamite cartridges, fastened end
to end like sausages, around the trunk
at this point, inserts a blasting cap
with about 20 feet of fuse in one of
these sticks. lights the end of the fuse
takes place. The tree top jumps into
the air with the explosion and the
trunk is left ready for attaching the
rigging for dragging in and loading
the logs

ATHENS GIRLS TRY
TOHEAD OFF COLLINS
Halloween Is Celebrated by
Student Body Before
1t Comes

Athens, October 4.-(Special. )-Hallow-
cen was celebrated at the college Satur-
day evening in order to get ahead of the
witches, COLLINS and ghosts, but in spite
of all they were there ahead of every
body. The dining room and assembly hall
were both very deliberately decorated the
juniors having the hall in charge. After
the students, all in white masks, had
filed into the dining room, the faculty,
also masked, came in and performed their
stunt before the spirits partook of
earthly food once more. Then there were
individual stunts and each table had it's
own stunt. The different tables We'd with
each other to see which could get up the
most original and appropriate one, and
many showed surprising ingenuity. After
supper the usual Halloween feats were
done, with fortune telling and apple bob
bling. Then came a goblin reading, fol-
lowed by the appearance of six fantastic
red COLLINS who swooped and whirled
about among themselves and among the
unmasked spirits to very weird music.
There were abundant refreshments dear
to the school girls heart Everyone was
loud in her thanks and appreciation to
those who put their thought and time
into all this fun for the pleasure of the
co1legefamily
The school has been especially favored
lately in having visitors at the chapel
hour. Among others who conducted the
exercises within the last 10 days were;
DR.. I. f. Hawkins of Decatur and Rev.
c. I. Hudson of Athens. Both made in
teresting addresses.
Rev. and Mrs S. O. Kimbrough of Tan
ner were weekend guests at the college.
President and Mrs. Glasgow are in Bir-
mingham this week attending the north

Episcopal church, south.
Miss Leona Sheriff of Limesone county
has entered college this week and was
heartily welcomed.

DRY MASH A BIG SAVING
Dry mash, a mixture of various ground
grains and by-products is the most eco
ncmicai feed, not alone from the feed bill
standpoint but in the labor involved IN
placing 1t before the flocks. And It also
sa.es considerable wear and tear on the
fowls digestive systems In the absence
of teeth the hen was given gzzard for
the express purpose of grinding soma
foods, yet 1T is generally considered TO be
more econon icai to have part OF the
grinding done by power ml!stones-
heavy egg yield is an intensive process
hence it must be assisted in every way
possible
Still another virtue OF the dry mash is
tho positive assurance that the fowls are
eating properly balanced ration, pro-
