REAL HOME BARGAIN

l built this home few years ago at a cost of S4SO0, at which time the lot (50X200), cost $2500. In response to an offer made by me yesterday for a client, the owner, who has moved from the city, wired me, Will take $4S50 for my home'
 Here is genuine bargain if ever there was one offered in Birmingham. The house is splendidly built, in perfect condition; has three bedrooms and small room suitable for single bedroom, and sleeping porch. There is $2500 6 per cent mortgage now on the property, with about four years to run, which can be assumed as part purchase price. This home fronts south on 18th avenue, being east of 18th street, south.
 Anyone interested in buying home will trade for this place upon inspec- tion.

NEW BLEACHER SEATS

Birmingham will be expected to show the old spirit. Last year over 12,000 att tended the opening contest This year, with additional bleacher seats, the crowd will swell to at least 15,000 people. No passes will be good on that day.
 All civic organizations will be lined up in the movement, and the fact that the title of Birmingham as the best base ball town in the circuit is at stake, will be spread wide and far. Other plans will be announced later.
 The campaign will be continued vigor- ously from now on The workers have but seven days to pull the crowd. The slo- gan, which was announced several days ago, is Pack the Park"
 There wasn't a big crowd of fans at the meeting yesterday, but the ones who were there certainly did display the pep A continuance of the same spirit practically cinches the trophy for Bir- mingham Let's hope it will.

 STORES NOT TO CLOSE
 The proposition of securing the mef- chants to close on the opening day was freely discussed. It was decided not 10 urge the merchants to close their stores altogether. but to allow as many of thelf employees as possible to attend the game Owing to the fact that all manufacturlns firms are running fun force, it is also thought that none of the big companies car be expected to close.
 Heretofore, an exceedingly large mum Der of stores, wholesale houses and manu- featuring firms have closed on the opening day in order to permit their employees t. attend the game. This year, an effort will be made to line the same firms up again, but not necessarily close their doors.
 It was the sentiment at the meeting that Atlanta would be the town -Jirming- ham must beat in order to win the tro- phy. President Baugh, who recently re- turned from Atlanta, brought the word that Atlanta is working harder than ever before, and Birmingham must turn out a larger crowd than last year to agaln cop the hOnorS in his opinion

say that he prefers the Imperial Valley to the crisp
of the winter atmosphere On the other hand Imperial
Valley doubtless the warnest spot in the state in mdWn

The richness of the soil here would feed thousand pecan

shipped east from the Valley long before sections
have started listing for similar products There hundreds
hundreds of valleys the United States but it is in
conrovertbe fact that the Imperial Valley is better known
abroad than half of the others The East and Middle West
depend entirely upon this valley for their early vegetables
It's cotton is recognized without peer and the production
is unrvaed 1t is region capable of caring for population
of half million. 1t is lmitess in potenales and each
year wonderful strides being made for increased and
intensified production.
