non, was appointed to raise $3.50 to be
used for the expenses of the Corn
Show on October 8, for the entertain
ment of the National Fox Hunters
| Association, and for carrying on the
| fight for the location of the govern
ment nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals.
The members of this committee will
select another member to aid them in
the campaign. The motion that caused
the appointment of the committee was
adopted unanimously.
The committee will start at once to
raise the funds. Members said that
they expected little difficulty in secur-
ing the necessary funds, as the people
Of the city were fully aware of the
advantages that would result to the
city on account of the enterprise
named. No funds will be raised for
dance, as this will be taken care Of
by the young people.
A motion, made by Eugene Anderson
and seconded by John w. Fry, was
adopted authorizing the secretary OF
the board to write to the Board OF
Mayor and Aldermen urging them to
keep the paved streets clean and the
dust down. Mr.. Anderson said that
the board had promised to keep the
new streets in good condition, and
they had not done SO. He stated that
the old streets in the business portion
were cleaner than the new ones.
John W. Fry told the Board of Trade
what had been done toward providing
entertainment for the fox hunters and
for the holding of the greatest corn

that sixty dollars worth OF premiums
had already been donated and that the
board would have to put up about one
hundred dollars in money premiums.
He said that a greater crowd would
be here on October than on Fox
Hunters week He enlisted the active
cooperation of the board with the men
actually promoting the show.
County Agricultural Agent o. L.
Farris said that the corn exhibited at
the show would be almost perfect. He
said that no other section of the state
had ever attempted anything of the
magnitude of this show. He said that
Tuesday afternoon he had brought into
the city one hundred twenty-five ears
of the best corn he had ever seen
grown, and that this corn is only an
indication Of what would be exhibited
at the show.
The applications for membership Of
several men were accepted.
