States Agricultural
 Achievements in 1917


 i NT1H HE food preparedness and mar < keting bureau, organized in Birmingham last year, has justified it's existence. It has not confined it's operations to this city, but has done
 much to promote farm interests throughout the state. It is prepared to do even more effective work this year
 Alabama needs an increase in pro-
 ductive population. No state in the lsouth is so inviting to home-seekers of farm or horticultural experience,
 and leaflet being distributed by the bureau tells much in little space about 150 words-that should make
 a strong appeal to desirable settlers. Here are the facts of 1917, and everyone hereabouts should know them by heart and "talk" them: Alabama produced corn enough to meet all the requirements of her population. A larger crop than that
 of Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana or Texas
 Alabama produced more peanuts than any other state in the union. oil af art ip+p the manufacture of oil. Alabama produced practically three times as much hay as her former av- craze annual production. Alabama produced more velvet beans than any other state. These beans are being ground and widely distributed as feed product, and l used as a grazing feed for her own live stock.
 Alabama produced more sweet po- tatoes than any other state; about I two and a half times her former an | nual production. Alabama produced more sorghum | and sugarcane syrup than any other l state, except Louisiana, where the 1 product is mainly manufactured in l large commercial mills. l Jefferson county produced more | sweet potatoes than any other county 1 in the state (9io,OOO bushels). l Why shouldn't Russian soldiers swap
 rifles with the Germans for playing cards? It will be long time before the
 Russians have any further use for rifle on the firing line. | It is probable that medal is waiting
 for the Hun commander who sank the Tuscania. If the loss of life had been greater he might have received two med.
 als.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN EXPECTED

From the Baltimore American. Senator LaFollette expressed himself
 as startled by the tragedy of the rus- cania. The senator is slightly inconsis- tent. Why should a paclfist be startled by the logical conclusions of his the ories?
