BIRMINGHAM IRON
 HEADED FOR JAPAN
5000 Tons of Pipe Going to Improve Nippon Resi-
 dence Property

A cargo of 5000 tons of cast iron pipe,
 manufactured by the Birmingham and
 Bessemer plants of the United States
 Pipe company is headed for Tobio Ja-
 pan.
 It is moving by freight train from the shop to Jacksonville, Fla There it will load on vessel of the Emergency Fleet Corporation
 i Southern ports have been we'll sup piled by allocation of vessels to their waters. The result is considerable move- ment of Alabama products far afield. Including this shipment to Tokio, the United States Pipe Company will have moved 1i,UOO tons of gas and water pipe from it's TOUT southern factories far afielG within thirty days. The first was o,VVU tons Of water and gas pipe for the Pacific coast via Mobile and the Panama canal. The second, now in progress. IS a duplication of the first. The Jackson Vile shipment is the third. Special haste is being made with the Jacksonville shipment because on Mon day the l25 per cent increase in export rail rates on iron and steel products in the southeastern territory goes in effect. Dhis rate was promulgated by the South eastern Tariff Association April 1.
 Southern ports have entered protest and
 Birmingham iron and steel manufac-
 turers have done likewise. High hope is
 still felt that the interstate commerce
 commission, at the eleventh hour, will
 suspend the new rates.
 The new order raises the export rail
 rate on pipe to Pensacola and Mobile from $l.69 to $3.7O. The result will be the accordance of distinct a lvantage to northern ports.
 Under the new and higher rate. the United States Pipe Company, which have access to tidewater at New York and Philadelphia, may be called on to manu- facture the pipe for export which is now manufactured at Birmingham Bessemer. Chattanooga and Anniston. Northern

nicotine solution at the rate of one tea sroonful to one gallon of water.
 For unusually severe attacks. these pro- portions should be increased somewhat.
 There are many other good spray ma terials on the market For the purposes specified, the ones mentioned have been found satisfactory.
 If one cubic inch of ordinary laundry soap, or fish oil soap, is dissolved in a little water and added to each gallon of the spray, it will stick to the plants bet ter.
 In manipulating, if the insects are put in can containing water with little kerosene on top, they will be destroyed.
 The poisonous bait recommended for cutworms may be made by adding a tablespoonful of molasses and two tea spoonfuls of arsenate of lead. or one of Paris green, to quart of bran. and made into a dry mash. It should be sprinkled around the plant It should be kept away from chickens
 Tbe liquid sprays may be applied by means of an atomizer hand spray pump, but good compressed air sprayer, as shown in the cut, should be a part of the equipment of every garden. A 'dust gun is a convenient apparatus for apply ing dust spray to the part of the plant affected. Thus in spraying turnips for plant lice, if the spray is not applied to the under side of the leaves where the lice are, it will not be effective. The ex- tension rod on the compressed air pumps make this possible.
 No one need fear any harmful results to anything except the insects in ap- plying the above poisonous materials in the ways mentioned. It is recommended I owever that poisons be not applied with in one week of the time the vegetables are to be used.

pipe shops in Philadelphia and at other northern points will have a similar ad- vantage on export business.
 On foreign business Alabama shops have the competition of shops in Great Britain, France, Belgium and Sweden. A high export rate adds to the acuteness of that competition.
 Finally, Lynchburg, Va, pipe shops will have an advantage for export move ment under the higher freight rate, be- cause the new ruling does not extend to that territory.
 The new export rates apply to all iron and steel products and. therefore. effect every iron and steel manufacturer ill Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee.
 In case the interstate commerce com mission fails to suspend the higher rate, the Warrior river will become a pro nounced factor in export movements oa account of the 20 per cent freight differ ential via that route. O. L. Bum, man. ager of the traffic bureau, has called attention to this.
 Under the circumstances. rush work at Birmingport and in securing the full quota of the new transportation equip ment is more earnestly sought by in dustrial interests than heretofore.

Preventing Insect Damage In Home Garden
supervisor of Gar dening. Ten

Preventing insect damage is always better than trying to stop such damage after it is started IL is easier, cheaper and more effective in every way.
 As general preventive measures, the following will be found helpful:
 L Flow or spade in late fall.
 2. Rotation
 8. Keep the garden clean of trash or anything that will harbor insects.
 4. Pull and compost all remnants of plants. Burn if diseased.
 5. Hand-pick or otherwise remove and destroy the first appearing insects of any kind when this is practicable In this way enormous progenes will usually be destroyed.
 While the above measures will reduce the number of insects considerably, it will not get them all. Below is given a brief table suggesting means of controll- ing ten of the more common insects. Much more could be said about controll- ing these pests. For more complete in- formation, the reader is referred to Far mers' Bulletin No. S56, Control of Dis eases and Insect Enemies of the Home Vegetable Garden" It may be obtained by writing to the United States Depart rnent of Agriculture, Washington D. c. The state experiment station at Auburn will give advice on this subject to those applying for it.
 The srsenate of lead referred to the table is a poisonous white power recom- mended for destroying biting and chew ing insects. Like other poisons, it should be handled with care. It should be used at the rate of a tablespoonful to one gal lon of water for the liquid spray If ap- piled in the dust form, one part of the Rrsenate should be mixed with five parts of air-slaked lime.

 WITH STATUS OF
 O'NEAL CAMPAIGN
Bondurant Says Bryan's Coming Will Emphasize States Disapproval
 VOlstead Act

we are entirely satisfied with the status of the short term senatorial coAtest today" said George r. Bondur- ant chairman of the O'Neal Jefferson county campaign committee, yesterday.
 Daily evidence is presented to the public that the consei va.ive vote of the state, the old-tme Jeffersonian de- nocfacy is so'idly behini Gu, candi- date. Such leaders as General Harri- son, General Fucker, General Weath- CTS, of Confederate army idme such legal minds as Judge Henry D. Clay ton, Judge DeGraffsareid and J. J. Willet, and such business men and farmers as M B. Wellborn. president of the United States reserve bank; John A. Rogers, B. A. Rogers and hum dreds of others. have made public their higA appreciation of the fitness of Elm met O'Neal, and offer assurances of his election.
 Not only these, but poopla of all classes are daily coming to cur head quarters with the cheering words: 'O'Neal is a winner AS far as the human eye can see and the mind fore tell. We are assured that there is strong basis for these statements and that O'Neal is to be the chosen sue ccssor of the lamented Ban<nead.
 The coming of MT. Bryan to Ala 5ama has centralized the issue upon O'Neal. and all states of the union more than ten in number--whsre de- mccracy has spoken. including MT. Bryan's home state, have repudiated the doctrines for which MT. Bryan con- tends and have established beyond the pui view of a doubt that MT. Bryan and his doctrines as usual are out of har- mony with the democrati. party. The ps ople of this state disapprove of the Nolstead force bill and demand it's modification. Jefferson county will give C'Neal 5000 plurality and the state will give him majority of the votes cast.
 The verdict of the electorate of Ala bama has been determined. It will be rendered on Tuesday. May II. and it will read thus; 'O'Neal for the United States Senate"
