LIVESTOCK MEN

GRAZING Rates
Houston Stays at Convention
TO Hear Pleas.

CHEYENNE. Wyo,. Jan. 0-The
concluding session of the twentieth an
nual convention Of the American Live
stock association today was expected
TO be one Of the most important held
this year. So vigorous have become
protests by the stockmen against the
proposed increase of grazing rates in
national forests that David +. Houston.
secretary Of agriculture has postponed
for one day his departure for Washing
ton to listen to additional complaints
by the stockmen.
The stockmen contend that the new
schedule Of fees will work a hardship
and drive many OF them out of the
business. The forestry department is
defending the schedule setting up the
claim that since more application.
have been received for permits thar
can be granted, it is evident that the
change is not meeting with much dis
favor except from former ieasers.
The convention will close today with

Counties Reap Rich Harvest From Hire of Their COnvicts

Montgomery, March S.-(Special) )-Ala- bama counties are reaping a bountiful harvest from their short term convicts A few months ago short time convict la bor was begging in the financial market Now companies are pleading for every man who has been convicted of a misde- meanor. It is a sign that companies en- ploying convict labor have more business than they can handle and are grasping at anything which might give them more labor.
 When the depression came at the begin ming of the war in Europe several coun- ties put their short time men on the county roads because no company was willing to pay a price which would make the convicts self-supportng. But condi- tions have changed. The companies have received immense war orders, they are short of men and they are willing to pay the counties good prices for their con- victs.
 In recent weeks the Pratt Consolidated Coal company has closed contracts with several counties and reports are that it is willing to take as many more convicts as it can obtain. Companies employing state convicts have been pleading for more men for several weeks. The de- mand is far greater than the supply and the board of~convict inspectors has been forced to apportion the men among the employers of convict labor in order that each company may suffer portion of the inconvenience caused by the shortage of the class of labor.

DISLIKESf CLIMATE

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 Having been 8 constant reader or your paper for the last year and a> half, am taking the liberty of making criticism Of some of the dope handed out.
 Several times recently l have noted with great deal of amusement some thing similar to the following:
 MT. .......... was in Birmingham today and remarked Today is certainly fine springlike day, and no wonder the people here are such boosters for a place hav- ing such climate as this 7"
 While, as a matter of fact, if there IS a place under the sun having more mis- erable climate, with eternal rain Cor cloudiness) with almost no sunshine (dur- ing winter); and nothing but sun and hot sultry days during the summer, l would like to know where that place is.
 Of course, we do sometimes get few beautiful days here, and perhaps that in a measure accounts for the great "hulla- baloo' raised when we have days like this, being so very few, naturally they are more appreciated than in sections having more even climate.
 My object in writing this is in no sense to be considered as knocker, but in all reason what is the use of forever raw ing over something that doesn't exist here? Respectfully.
