Raising Lots of Hogs

"Coosa and Chambers counties sell lots of hogs" said l.. T. Wells of the Auburn extension service. The production Of hogs for market is becoming popular and profitable in east Alabama. Counties that have never before sold any hogs are reai- izing the possibilities of this branch of the live stock business.
 "Coosa county farmers sold car of hogs on March Il for s2219. These hogs were handled through cooperative sale conducted by County Agent s. M. Day, assisted by the marketing division of the extension service The hogs were excel lent quality, and farmers were well pleased with the sale. Another sale is being planned for April l. Chambers county farmers sold three cars of hogs March F, for s6200. These hogs were sold in sale similar to the one at Good water, County Agent W. MFSellcrs plan ming the sale. The hogs were graded by representative of the extension service and would compare favorably with hogs from any other section of the south, and show that farmers in east Alabama can produce as good hogs as can be pro- duced in any section.'

were being rapidly undermined by contact with European conditions. Meddlers of both sexes caused acute distress to parents who had sons in the American army, and to other rel atives and friends, by circulating stories which had little or no basis of truth.
 General Pershing, supported by an aroused public sentiment in America, put a stop to the activities of most of the scandal mongers. Their state ments were speedily proved untrue by the glorious record made by our sol diers in battle, but as soon as the armistice was signed, sensationalists and professional faultfinders got busy again. It is gratifying to know that none of the more serious allegations made have been substantiated. Even Brest is not as bad as it has been painted.

x # # A NYE-RILEY ANECDOTE
Edmund H. Eitel, in Harper's Magazine
 for March.

Edmund H. Eitel, in Harper's Magazine for March
 Among the many comical stories Ri- ley told of his experiences with Nye was the history of a book called Wye and Riley's Railway Guide, which gave them a broad personal and legal eXper- fenced with publishers. From their first tour in 1886 their fancy ran riot with the idea of comic railway guide for just such poor, ill-fated travellers as they themselves proved to be, for the man, as they wrote in the introduce ton ,"who erroneously gets into a car which is side-tracked and swept out and scrubbed by people who take in cars to scrub and laundry"
 Wye and l." Riley used to say, thought little book made from our readings might perhaps stanch long, felt public want. In fact, we grew en- thusiastic as our eyes swept the pros pect. Nye, indeed, thought there was money in it. I remember that in his optimis, he wrote: Let :,s inaKe some money, be Gosh, and put it in our in- side pocket. It feels bully" Riley point in the story.
 Well, we went to Chicago to look for a publisher, and there we found one, Ketchem & Sknem who had sign on the door, Drop Mss. here. We dropped ours and went away feeling pretty good"
 Riley then told of long wait, dur ing which they wondered whether the manuscript would be accepted; then how glad they were to find the book on sale at the news stands, and finally now they paid visit to the publishers to inquire, timidly, into the matter of roy alties. The door was locked. Some months later, in response to their let ters, came an invitation to a banquet given by the publishers in their honor. Hopefully they presented themselves. "As We filed in to dinner, Nye whis- pered to me, Think they'll hand us checks with the cigars? We'll when the cigars were passed at length, the publisher at the head of the table pushed back his chair, put his finger tips on the cloth, beamed on us and said:
 Gentlemen and publishers, we have met to do honor to our two illustrious humorists tonight in an unusual way. We appreciate their humor, especially that which has made our book so suc- cessful. And in token of our appre- citation We now present to them 100 |, shares apiece in our great company. m!-I believe that is allr Tt was all. Nye and I hoped at first for the best, but neither of us secretly could find any market for our shares, and the company never paid any divi- dends before it went out of business"

Example of Atlanta Spirit

''The various war activities arc be- ing followed up by drives based on the methods found efficient in putting Uncle Sam's wishes over the top,' said J. Mercer Barnett, land I think it emi- nently proper for the various denom- nations to try them out in their mis- sionary campaigns, but as one who feels that he has done his full share in public work, I can sympathize with kinsman of mine who was recently asked to put aside his many duties in Birmin gham and come to Atlanta and give a month of his time to head a pub licity committee. He looked upon it as in keeping with what is technically known as the Atlanta spirit which asks for what it wants and because ot its much asking does get much"

Charges Against Army
 Shown To Be False
innocence.

A MOTHER canard has been ex- GN ploded by Major General Treat, commanding the American troops in Italy. Sensational charges were made that members of the 332d infantry were undergoing great hardships and suffering, even being forced to steal in order to get food, and that drunk enness was prevalent among the of !. ficers.
 From the time the first unit of American soldiers set foot on Euro pean soil reports have been circulated in this country reflecting on our troops. If they were not debauched themselves, their officers were brutal incompetent and dissipated. Our sol diers were not getting enough to eat, they were not sufficiently clothed, ,hey lacked shoes, blankets and the bare necessities of life. Their morals

LATTER DAY CROAKERS

From the New York World.
 Tho onnonents of league of nations are now engaged in painting ghastly nictures of the downfall of the repup- lie should the United States enter into a compact with other self-governlns nations to make a temporary peace nsrmanent. They are probably just as earnest and just as wise as the oouo'- CTS and the croakers of 11ss. Modern civilization is a record of poneicd' progress. and political progress pc longs to the men who look forwaro' no, to the men who look bachward- to the men who take counsel of cour- age. not torthe men who take couhsei of cowardice

Work of Farmers League

'T was so impressed with the accoun. of the Farmers Protective league as written up in The Age-Herald," said Judge N B. Feagin, that I sat down and wrote President Joseph o. Thomp- son, asking him if possible to have the addresses put in permanent form, and I am glad to know that this is being done I am sure that out of the discussions and talks much good will chance to get at tie object and the real need of the work sought to f,be done to limit the production of cotton and encourage the diversification of crops"

Damage in EufauIa

T was glad to get letter from ons of my sisters living in Eufaula that the damage in a property way was not as great as first thought said the Bluff City.
 "As soon as the wires were up call ed up my brother, Cliff A. Locke, to get first hand account of the cyclone from him, and while the town was grieved over the loss of some of it's the people were bravely facing the re- mobilization of the desolation every where in evidence as the result of the storms fury"

WHISPERS REAPPEARING

From the London Chronicle.
 A notable feature in masculine ap- pearance is the increasing fashion of whisIers. At present they are only small affairs of the Albert variety, made popular by the prince consort. The whisker is no longer than two fingers breadth, but there is no tell ing what dimensions these side pro ducts of the war may assume.
 1t is an army fashion, just as boards were an after growth of the Crimea. The present whisker originated among officers whose right arm. stiff or im- paired/ through wounds, cannot be raised easily to the level of the ear, and so prevents clean shave to tho top of the cheek.
