ASHVILLE
By JOHN INFER FIREMAN

Ashville, May 2S.-(SpeciaL State Su- pervisor of Vocational Education J. B. Hobdy and Prof. R. E. Ledbetter, rural school supervisor, will be present at the St. Clair county board of education which meets at Ragland tomorrow. About 50 of the 90 tick eradication dip ping vats for St. Clair county have been constructed under the provisions of the act of the last legislature. The first vat at Ashville was opened for public use this morning. This is one of the counties that afforded some opposition to the eradication law and resulted in an at- tempt to contest the law. The proceed ings are now in the hands of the courts,
 Estimates have been made that while the cotton crop for St. Clair for this year is from to 10 per cent increase above last year that it will mean about normal crop. The cotton is coming t:p in good stands. The fields are clean and it is neither suffering from lack of rain or sunshine. Farmers of this county have diversified more in their farming tban any year heretofore.
 The centenary drive of the Methodist church here finds the local Methodist church much above the allotted quota of sl570.
 Probate Judge Perkins McClendon is supervising the buying of materials for in provements of the St. Clair county jail here in order that it will meet with the approval of the state prison inspectors s re recommendations. Sanitary conditions will be improved in accordance with the present plans.
 Miss Agnes Hit, assistant state home demonstration agent, is expected here to assist Miss Martha Weir, county home demonstrate agent, in the campaign which will cover the county. The hrst demonstration is to be at Ashville to- morrow, after which the county demon stration work will be taken up. The State Highway commission has notified Judge Perkins McClendon that the trucks authorized by the federal board have been shipped to J. w. Gwinn. president of the board of revenue or Jefferson county, and the three tWo-ton trucks allotted to this county for road buildng purposes will be ready in the near future.
