the organization of hog club at that
place. The invitation came from Fred
II. Jones, president of the Southern Cat
tlemens association.
In extending the invitation to Birming-
ham through the Food preparedness bu-
reau, Mr.. Jones stated that the cattle
and swine growers of that section of Ala
bama were anxious to establish trade re-
lations with Birmingham and wanted the
people of this city to meet them for the
purpose of discussing market conditions.
Sumter and adjoining counties have de-
veloped in recent years into very active
cattle and swine counties, some of the
finest cattle and swine in the country
being raised there.
One dealer in Northport in Tuscaloosa
county, has built up a large business in
the last two or three years in cattle and
swine, buying from the farmers in that
section and shipping to Chicago. He in
spects every animal purchased and when
it goes to the packing house company 1t
bears his guarantee. 1t is said that out of
several cars of swine shipped by him to
a Chicago concern recently only one was
below the guaranteed grade. AS a result
of this he gets the top prices for every
animal he sells.

The city detectives have been quite
active in the past in searching trunks,
bags and bundles in the Terminal sta
ton baggage room suspected of having
liquor in them, according to General
Baggage Agent w. L. Huggins. up
until a short time ago the detectives
came up frequently, but they haven't
been coming around very often lately"
said Mr. Higgins. They are always
nice about it and. inasmuch as they
bring a blanket warrant along. l am
authorized to permit the search"
The method the detectives use In
looking for liquor in the baggage room
is to get a blanket search warrant.
shake the trunk or bag up and down
and If anything inside "guggles" like
booze" they open the baggage and look
around. For the purpose OF getting in
trunks and bags the officers carry
along a huge bunch of keys. In case
they find no liquor in the suspected
baggage they, of course, lock it back
up, but if any of the 'pizen" is discov-
cred then the guilty container is car
ried to the city hall.
OF course. they make mistakes, like
all human beings. For instance, the

hands with the men whom General
Edwards decorated with crosses OF

governors. 1t is said to have been
one of the best divisional parades
that ever occurred in the New Eng
land states. Many prominent men
from the state whose names were
not learned attended the division re-
view.
General Hale in speaking of the
decorating of the state colors said
the fact that some of the other or
CARNATIONS did not get decorations
did not mean they were not entitled
to it, but that they did not have stan
dards to decorate. He made splendid
mention of the, 101st Ammunition
