 NO FIGHT ANTICIPATED
 That there will be no well organized fight against the dozens of appropriation bills now pending before the senate ana house is the belief of those who have watched the opposition. The money to take care of the increased appropriations is available or will be, from the general revenue bill, and the enemies Of the measure knew what the purpose of the administration was in attempting to raise more money during the next four years
 It is the plan of the two houses to work at least three days during the coming week and three days the following week. This will consume the entire time of the 1919 legislature. and two weeks from today the 1919 legislature will De a thing of the past if present plans are carried out.
 Lawmakers will not be sorry to see the gavel of each house announce sine die adjournment They have been here now more than two months, and It IS evident that they had rather be in thelr hysnoe towns attending to personal ar fairs than in Montgomery debating ques- lions relating to state affairs. Ihey reel that they have performed thelr opliga- tions, and that personal matters whlch have been neglected many weeks shouio receive their attention.
 NIGHT SESSIONS PLANNED
 At least three more night sessions Will he held during the six legislative days. Local bills only will be disposed or. Eighty -four bills of local nature were disposed of on Wednesday night, put during the day at least two dozen were introduced.
 There is one more day of pleasure tor -lan ,ad hnfnra fheV good bye to Montgomery. ihe house already has accepted the invitation or the business men of Mobile to visit the states only seaport before leaving the city. The invitation was accepted tor next Saturday, but the senate had n2t acted on it. It is now agreed that only 1 a few legislators would stay over TOT a Saturday trip, and an effort IS to De made to change the date for next Thurs day. The matter will probably come up again on Monday-the forty-fifth Legislative day-and the date changed from Saturday to Thursday. The dele gation of Mobile in the two houses IS anxious to have all members visit the Gulf City, but there will not be 1ull attendance if the invitation is accepted for Saturday. Many desire to go to their homes on that day.
 Efforts will be made during the week to amend the Craft s25 100000 bond is- sue bill, which has been approved by the senate and by the house commit tee of the whole. The house committee on Friday voted to report the bond is sue bill favorably, but the right to amend it was reserved. Just what these amendments will be is not known. The measure calls an election 90 days fol- lowing final adjournment of the leg islature for the submission of the bond issue question to the qualified voters.
 The senate amended the bin so as to require the construction of at least 30 miles of road in each county. This l amendment insures each county getting benefits from the bond issue. The bonds

Necessity For Extra
 Session Eliminated
Will Be Possible for Legislature to Dispose of All Bills During Remaining Six Days of
 Regular Session
Ny WILLIAM l.. GoRMLEY

Montgomery, September 13.-(Special) Efforts of the administration leaders in the legislature to eliminate the neces- sity of an extra session in 1919 have been successful, and on the fftieth legislative day the general assembly will be ad- journed sine die by Speaker Merritt and Presiding Officer Nathan L. Miller.
 Until the general revenue bill was fin ally enacted during the past week there tration that it would be necessary to have an extraordinary session, and at that time there were a score or more i'm portant general bills up for disposition. However, by sitting as a committee of the whole on Thursday and Friday the house members transacted important matters that otherwise would have had to be attended to on & legislative day.
 The senate has number of important bills, the majority being those taking care of financial matters for the various schools, colleges and departments of the state government but during the re- maining six legislative days these will be disposed of.

Carrigan-Erckert
 Company Formed

A. J. Carrigan of Columbia, Tenn. and S. J. Erckert of Birmingham announce the formation of the Carrigan Erckert Co., which will manufacture the Pony Brand Mange and Eczema treatment.
 We believe we have a wonderful proposition in this remedy" said Mir Erckert yesterday, and we propose to do everything we can to create a na- tional market for it. It is highly com mended for diseases of the human head and body and is invaluable as a stock remedy. It is already in use in vari- ous parts of the United States and Canada.
 Birmingham needs just such indus tries as we propose to establish in this new remedy and we, therefore, feel that we will receive all the encouragement that can be given until the merits of the remedy become as widely known as they are entitled to be. The treat ment will be on sale tomorrow by all Birmingham dealers. Doster- Northing ton Drug company will be the distribu- tors.

CLASSES ID
 BE FILLED AT "Y
Improvements Will Be Made. Various Classes Are /Of-
 fered to Members

Everything in the line of athletics will be offered during the fall and winter sea- son at the Y. M c. A, and judging from the amount of enthusiasm shown by members. our gymnasium will be packed at all times,' said W. W. Abell, director of athletics of the Young Mems Christian association
 "A number of Improvements are be- ing made to take care of the large num- Der who will vail themselves of the opportunity offered by the association, and it is highly probable that all classes will be practically double that of last season."
 That the "Y" fully expects a heavy de- mand for the facilities offered in the gymnasium is attested by the extensive improvements and additions that will take place within the near future. Ac- cording to the plans of the association set forth by Mir Abell no means will be spared in offering the public all the lat est convepiences available.
 The fact that the association will be called on to handle a vastly increased membership this year, because of the presence of the younger men who in the past have been in service, has i'm pressed the management of the need for additional apparatus and other improve ments.
 The same high standard of efficiency will be in operation this year in the gymnasium. Special stress will be laid on inter-class competition. It is planned to have each individual class represent ed by teams in various recreative games. All classes will start September g.
 Schedules of the various classes to be conducted are as follows:
 Business mems classes, Monday, Wed resday and Friday at 12:30 clock.
 Younger business mems class, Monday. Wednesday and Friday at 5.15 o'clock.
 Busy mems, Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 630 o'clock.
 Young Mems classes. Monday, wednes- day and Friday, AGO to o'clock.
 Boys classes
 Intermediate class. Monday, Wednes- day and Friday, 4:30 to 5 o'clock.

HEALTH APPROPRIATIONS

tJ
 Appropriations for health work fol- low:
 Fiscal year beginning October 1, 1919, s90,000 (cut from $100,000 by the house caucus on Thursday); fiscal year be- ginning October l., 1920, $125, 5,000: fiscal year beginning October 1, 1921, s150, 900, and a like sum for each fiscal year thereafter, the payments being made monthly.
 Some of the drastic features of the health bill are shown in the follow ing sections, which relate to barber shops:
 No barber shall use for the service of any customer a comb, hair brush, hair duster or any analogous article that is not thoroughly cleaned, nor any mug, shaving brush, razor. shears scissors, clippers, or tweezers that are not thoroughly cleaned or that have not been sterilized since last used.
 Every barber immediately, after using any mug, shaving brush, razor, scissors. shears, clippers, or tweezers for the service of any person, shall ster- iliz the same by immersing them in boiling water for not less than a min ute, or, in the case of razors, scissors, shears and tweezers. by immersing them for not less than 10 minutes in wood alcohol or denatured ethyl alco- hol of a strength of not less than 65 per cent.
 NO barber shall use for the service of a customer any towel or wash cloth that has not been boiled and laundered since last used.
 Every barber shall cleanse his hands thoroughly immediately before serving each customer.
 No barber shall, to stop the flow of al, r;r1 unless the same is used as a powder or liquid, and applied on a clean towel or in similar sanitary manner.
 No barber shall use a powder puff, a sponge, finger bowl for or in the service of a customer.
 "No barber shall permit any person to use the headrest of any barber's chair under his control until after the head rest has been covered with q towel that has been washed since having been last used, or with clean, new paper.
 "No barber shall shave any person when the surface to be shaved is in famed or broken out or contains pus, unless such person be provided with a cup razor and father brush for his in dividual use
 "No barber shall undertake to treat any disease of the skin. No person shall use a barber shop as dormitory, nor shall any owner or any manager of a barber shop permit such shop to be so used' Another revolutionary change in the present law relates to the inspection and operation of all stores, where food and other commodities are sold. The state board of health is permitted to tell storekeeper how to run his store and if said store owner refuses to op- crate acording to the regulations of the board he is subject to a heavy fine Closing of a store or restaurant for violating the regulations is permitted l by the state board.

is to be done against the wishes of the recess committee that made an in- vestigation of the school system, in cluding the special investigators of the United States department of education.
 Strength of the general health bill, opposed on the ground that it will give the state board of health and state health officer power which should rest with the people, was shown during the past week when the house caucus voted 10 favorably report the measure. The bill will be subjected to close inspec- tion, however, during the coming week The fight will be centered on those sections which make the state health officer all-powerful in enforcing health laws of every city, town and county in the state.
 Subsection of Section 5 provides that the state board of health shall have authority to draw up rules and regula- tons, and that these rules and regula- tions shall have the same force and effect of law" and shall be enforced by the same courts-that now enforce all state laws. Persons violating the reg ulations are guilty of misdemeanor and each days violation or failure con- stitute a separate offense
 Another section places with the courl- ty boards the power of making laws and enforcing them. Violation of county board regulations also is a misdemeanor and is punished as such

AMENDMENT NECESSARY


 1 AMENDMENT NECESSARY 1 The Port of Birmingham corporation will not be a money making concern. It is not intended to be. It is the pur- , pose of the organizers of this corpora tion to get quick action against the time of the inauguration of service by the new boats and barges, about Janu- ary l. Bills are now pending in the legislature authorizing Jefferson coun- ty and Birmingham and Bessemer and
 possibly one or two other municipalities in the county to lend their credit, or
 to build. acquire. own and operate river terminals and transportation lines This authority. however. rests on a constitutional amendment proposed in a bill introduced by Senator West, which
 has passed the senate and is now pend
 ing in the house. It would have passed the hose few days ago except for an oversight at the time. It will probable
 be called up sometime tomorrow during
 the hour set Aside for the consideration of local bills
 But with the vote on the amendment
 authorized it will be at least three
 months before the election can be called and still further time will be required to complete all formalities, 50 that, with the amendment ratified by the voters of Alabama, it will be six months and perhaps longer before Jefferson county or Birmingham can issue the bonds therein provided for. Following
 the ratification of the amendment the
 question of issuing the bonds would
 have to be submitted to the voters of Jefferson county.
 The Port of Birmingham corporation
 therefore became necessity in order
 to prevent delays that might ultimately
 defeat the entire proposition. The plan
 decided upon by the organizers of the
 Port of Birmingham corporation, it is
 stated, contemplates the sale of suf-
 ficient shares of stock to pay for ter
 minals and equipment immediately
 necessary and to begin business with
 these.
 Just as soon as the county issues
 bonds the outstanding shares of stock
 will be purchased by the county, the
 holders being paid cost plus interest
 up to the date of such purchase.

the Community EROM time to time mention has been made in these columns of the growth of the livestock industry in Alabama. The latest bulletin of the state department of agriculture contains interesting facts re- garding this departure from the one-crop system so long prevailing in the state
 This information is contained in four items one deal ing with lambs another with goats the third with cattle shipments, and the fourth, wool.
 From Greene county big cotton county, in the west part of the socaed black belt, where up to few years ago practically nothing but cotton raised reports of several sales of lambs for shipment to packing houses outside of the state Farmers in the neighborhood of Bolgee shipped carload containing l5O lambs one day and day or two later second load shipped by other farmers from the place
 Hale county, adjoining Greene on the east reports four sold at average of 17a cents pound and Marengo, to the south of Hae reports two carloads shipped and another lot of Hampshire lambs aver aging 67 pounds, which sold at S16.75 per hundred weight.
 Lowndes, also, reports innovation in the movement of cattle from the farms to the railroad loading stations Instead of driving the cattle through the country as heretofore the farmers large trucks into which the cattle loaded and moved by night from the farm to the railroad thus obvatng the long drive through dusty and dry country and in hot weather which tired the cattle and caused them to lose weight By means of the trucks the cattle transported from farm to railroad in short time and without the loss of any weight.
 Baldwin and Escambia counties report the sale at Amore to Mobile brokers of 30000 pounds of wool at average of 58 cents pound which neted the farm CTS $17 400.
 Part of this wool from Baldwin county the home of Dr. Homes representative in the legislature who the author of bill intended to protect the sheep industry of Alabama Under the provisions of this bill all dogs must be muzzled and the owner must pay an annual license which will be used by the state to rei- buse for the loss of sheep through the depreda tions of the dog.
 If the Holmes bill is passed will give biz impetus to the sheep industry of the stae It is backed by the Birmingham Civic association and other organizations in the state interested in the development of the live stock industry in the sate It is stated that there are thousands of dogs running at1arge in the state and the damage they do annually is incalculable.
 While the boil weevil and the continuous rains through the past cut the cotton crop in ha the increase in livestock has than overcome this oss and at the end of the year the stae no doubt will be richer by millions of dollars than it was year ago.
 One black belt cotton farmer who raised over 300 bales last year states that his yield this year will not be much than half that amount yet the money value of his entire crop will be greater this year than last of the fact that he raised other things than cotton
 This recalls the story of negro farm hand who instructed to kill boil weevils. He was on the job but short time when he related to his employer he
