Sanitary science has OF late mauo

Is the recommendation that it is as

Everyone. whether ailing. sick or

water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the stom-

The board of revenue will cut salaries,
pay rolls and expenses and then adopt
budget system for. the county. This
may be done at the meeting this morning.
1t is practically certain to be done be-
fore December /.
Neither the board nor any of its menu
bers has given any intimation to the pub
lie of it's intentions, but it is known that
many caucuses have been held, at which
these matters have been fully discussed.
1t is said that the board is in full &C
cord and agreement on drastic retrench-
ment policy.
Salaries, it is stated, will be cut all
down the line; jobs will be eliminated
wherever possible.

TEXAS AND PACIFIC
SHIPPING RAILS

Officials OF the Texas and Pacific
railroad are in Birmingham looking
after arrangements to ship 1900 tons
of steel rails. which were recently
purchased here, to its lines in the
west.
Purchasing Agent Irwin and J. B.
Burke, assistant general freight agent,
are attending to the shipments. The
rails are being conveyed to the Texas
and Pacific lines on equipment be-
longing to that railroad.
The order for 1900 tons of rails is
regarded as a rather large order in
asmuch as, at the prevailing prices of
rails, it involves over $3.50, 6V1.
The steel will be used in. improve
ment work in the west. Both officials
have headquarters in New Orleans.

BOARD OF REVENUE
PLANNING BIG CUTS
Salaries, Pay Rolls and Expenses to Be Trimmed
All Down Line-Members Have Been Busy
Studying Countys Financial Condition
and Will Adopt Budget

lures of the county cut to the very bone, "
said an official who keeps in close touch
with the situation. t'The new board has
gone about its business in a very earnest
careful and business-like manner. They
are making no fuss or furore over what
they are doing and are not advertising
what they intend to do. The first thing
they did was to call for statement of
the countys condition financially. This
they are going into carefully and thor
oughly. They will adopt a budget con-
sistent with the countys condition.
IT expect to see this board of revenue
put into effect a retrechment policy that
will make that $4,000 salary cut of this
first board of city commissioners look
like the height of extravaganza.
The board may also appoint all of it's
officials and employees at its meeting to-
day.

night during Electrical Prosperity
w eek" A score or more of floats will
be Illuminated and decorated for the 'oc-
casion. An effort will be made to get
the merchants to use an extra amount Of
lighting while the show is in progress.
THE main purpose of the electrical
show will be to educate the people on
electrical equipment said Mr.. Davidson.
THE many advantages of electrical APP
paratus over the more antiquated style
of necessities in the home are evident.
Few people realize that there are thou
sands of appliances built for practical
uses that cannot be duplicated for eff

USE OF LIMESTONE
| WILL NOT LESSEN
| BUILDING BEAUTY
New POstOffice Bids Must
Be Kept Within the
S715,OOO Limit
100000 TO BE USED
FOR THE FURNISHING
Total of $1,2OO,000 Appropriated for
Postoffice, But Nearly $400,-
600 Was Spent for
the Site

Birmingham new postoffice will suffer
no detriment so far as physical beauty
is concerned, by having limestone trim
ming substituted for marble in the exte-
rior. according to Custodian John d.
McNeel, and local architects.
While the marble trimming would be
more expensive it would color just as
quickly as the limestone according to
Mr.. McNeel Marble will be used in the
interior trimmings, according to the new
Specifications, and the only change that
will be made under the new bids Will be
the substitution of limestone for marble
on the exterior trimming.
FINE GRAIN STONE
The limestone that will be used in the
trimming is fine grain stone, some
what like granite, and practically the
same as the trimming on the old federal
building 1t is understood that Indiana
limestone will be used on the new build
ing.
All new bids for the construction of the
building are expected to be in Washing
ton within three weeks or a month, and
the starting of the building will be de-
layed very little, according to Mr.. Nc
Neel. 1t is understood that the depart
ment at Washington will simply write
to the contractors who have already bid
on the building, and ask them to submit
new bids, substituting limestone for mar
BILE on the exterior. There are about rs
contractors who have bid on the building,
the only local concern being the Carroll
r,Io1ro Co,c+r,,otiop cor,,nanv
TWO YEARS TO BUILD
Work on the new building is expected
to start early in the year, according to
Mr.. McNeel, and the building is expected
to be completed and ready for occu-
pancy within two years.
1t is understood that the bids for
the new building must be within the
s715,OOO limit. Although $4,000 is now
available for the building, between
$4,000 and $1O0, 900 of this amount is to :
be expended for furnishing and equip
ping the building. Out of the original
appropriation Of $1,200,0O0 nearly $780,,
600 had been spent for the postoffice
site.
1t was decided by the department at
Washington that the substitution of lime
stone for marble in the building would
make it possible to get the building con-
structed within the estimated time,
whereas were other appropriations asked
for. the building would perhaps be de-
layed indefinitely.

100000 TONS OF
IRON IN MONTH

The pig iron production in the Bir-
mingham district during October was
over $4,000 tons.
In order to produce such an amount
of pig iron, the companies operated at
full capacity. At this monthly rate
the companies would make more than
100000 tons during the present year.
Should this total be attained. the
1916 tonnage would exceed that of 1915
by 100000 tons.
With the car situation becoming bet
ter daily, the iron manufacturers are
looking forward to a great year in
1917, with their output generally sold
out until July and orders for delivery
during the last half of the year being
offered daily. Spot pig iron is now
quoted at $23

Henderson declared. there Is no re-

Christ Is the example for all the

divine. Consider when the devil took
