Dogs and Cats Menace to Gardens

Several q the residents Of Greene

Home Garden movement and are culti-
waiting their plot of land, find that it
good crops with four or five dogs and
more cats trying to help the work by
digging holes in the middle OF ones

racing around in the garden that she

BUILDING FOR AUTO SHOW COMPLETED Structure Will Be Turned Over to Decorators
 Tomorrow

The contractor for the automobile show auditorium has more than made his word good to the management of Birmingham S first automobile show. scheduled to open here Monday, March 5. The men in charge Of the show demanded of the contractor that he be ready to turn over the structure to the decorators by Febru- ary 20. However, the building is ready for the decorators three days ahead of time, and a crew of decorators will start their work tomorrow morning.
 Before the decorators have completed their work they will have placed in the general stage setting" of the automobile show more flowers than have ever been used in any two shows held in the south.
 The bill for the floral decorations for the Birmingham show, which reaches a surprisingly large figure, provides for 15O gross of flowers, 21, 600 individual blooms, 10000 branches of beech leaves and three miles of smilax. These have already been bought and received at headquarters. and many other decorations and novelties are to follow.
 Then in addition to this comes the ex- pense or importing into Birmingham gross after gross of decorative lamps, and the construction here by special de- sign of hundreds of smaller decorative lamps, electrical effects and /the like. The plan the management has mapped out for the decoration of the mammoth auditorium, which has been erected on the new postoffice site, shows that ii will be the most elaborate floral show ever presented to the people of Birming- ham and Alabama. There will not be g bare spot in the entire 900 feet of space 1 Even the ceilings will be clothed in beau l tiful and expensive flowers
 | Davidson's orchestra has been engaged l to provide the music during the entire week.
 The fact that the automobile show and
 Fashion Week are to occur the same
 week insures the success of both.
