G. w. Bergman a Fighter

But G. w. Bergman could play
the business game himself, even
when he had no cinch At the time
we are thinking of, Frank Reno was
the collector of tolls, and the year
1884. If we have it right, Mr.. Ber-
ryman told Mr.. Reno that his stock
and the stock of Lyman & Wallace
was about equal to Mr.. Buntings
stock, and If they wished to they
could reverse Mr.. Bunting's orders.
He told Reno that if he, Reno, want
ed to hold his job he would have
to take orders from C. w. Bergman
as we'll as from Charles Bunting.
And this is the order he slipped to
Reno: II am pulling for Danilson
& Stevens, and will send you Or
ders to pass two outfits that are Gus
toners of theirs for every one you
pass that is customer of Bunting's.
So now if you want to hold your job
just see to it that the Danilson &
Stevens customers cross when the
order is presented"

Frank Reno the Goat

In the words of the westerner,
Frank Reno had a heck of a time.
But other complications were set
ting in. AL Creswell had sixteen

toner of Bunting's, but was playing
the same game Bunting was. He was
whipping both ends against the
middle" and making Bunting dance
to certain music when Creswell play
ed, and Bunting was getting tired Of
it. Creswell knew several things that
he declined to forget, and every time

Beets, Politics and Progress
Sugar Out Of the Air
By Byrd Trego
CHAPTER V.

Sugar Is extracted from the air.
1t appears to come from the ground.
but the chemists tell us the sugar
beet has a way of getting it from
the air, and 1t does it thru the leaves.
Beets do not grow without leaves.
If something happens to take off the
leaves, as a hail storm, the beets
do little If any growing after that
unless they rebuild the leaves.
The pulp of the beet comes out
of the soil; so do the tops. When
a beet crop is harvested, the tops
usually remain in the land, the main
root body goes to the factory. the
sugar is extracted from it, and if
the pulp is returned to the farm,
practically everything is back in the
soil as it was before, only there is
more humus than in the former ex-
istence. The sugar that was ex-
tracted from the sliced beet came
from the air above the
beet field, so the loss to the soil is
~ oAIASoAiy nOSukuS.
Return the Beet Pulp
If the pulp is not returned in
some form, then there is loss to
the soil, and to maintain it, there
must be some form of fertilizing.
The Utah-Idaho Sugar company has
been following the practice of fur
nishing pulp to feeders under very
unsatisfactory conditions that placed
it in the hands of very few beet
growers, and very largely into the
hands of such large firms as the
Austin Brothers in this and adjoin-
ing counties, and kept it from getting
back in the large measure to the
farms from which it came. Every
plan that has been suggested for
remedying this condition has been
combated by them, and they have
persistently encouraged the prac-
tice that concentrated it in the hands
of the big fellows.

Fighting the Beet Growers

The Independent company put in
superior equipment in many respects,
and the evidence in the investigation
showed that the representatives of
the Utah-Idaho Sugar company did
everything they could to make the
farmers and beet growers believe
that this newfangled machinery was
made only to sell and to keep UP
appearances in a stock-jobbing
scheme, and that it would not make
sugar and was never intended for
anything else than camouflage. 1
have had assurance from leading
men in the Utah-Idaho Sugar COM
pany that none of these things were
done with their authority nor by
their consent, and as they are per-
fectly truthful men, it appears that
they have lost control of their en-

Return Pulp to Soil

This paper has advocated the
change of delivery of pulp so that
as it Eassed out of the factory it
might be dumped into the freight
car ready to be hauled back to the
beet dump from which it came, in
| similar amount, and that dumps be
built so that it could be dropped
into suitable Dits where farmers
could haul it to their individual
| farms all over the territory from
which the beets were produced The
sugar men say this is not practical,
and probably it is not, but | shall
continue to declare that it is not
equitable to keep on handling it the
way it has been done and it is not
practical to keep up the fertility of
the farms where beets are grown
and the use of the pulp is denied or
prevented by conditions that make
it Impossible to get it, The Beet
growers Sugar company at Rigby re-
turns to every grower the amount of
pulp that his beets make, and they
are working on plans to make it
possible for the growers to get it
transported. The pulp is considered
the pri-ate property of the grower
instead of the property of the fac
tory. They have fleet of trucks
and trailers with portable loading
machinery which they operate in any
locality to speed up transportation.
The evidence submitted in the in
vestigation of the federal trade COM
mission at Rigby showed that the
Utah-Idaho Sugar company combated
them in every way they could with
view of keeping them out, and by
speeding up construction of beet
dumps where they had been refus-
ing to build, they were able to keep
men from contracting with the indie
pendent company and increasing
their production of sugar beets and
sugar even while the government
was asking everybody who could to

Delegates Attend Meeting of Birmingham
 Gadsden Society

 More than sixy-five delegates from northern Alabama Presbyterian churches attended the Birmingham Gadsden Presbyterial society meeting in Ensley yesterday. An an-day ses- sion was held and besides the regulai routine. of such affairs pageant de- picting the sufferings of the far east .ern countries was given by the Grace chapter of, the Westminster Guild
 Reports from all the societies were rniformly of an encouraging nature, not only have financial pledges been met to degree unheard of before, but more members are joining all societies of the churches than in former years. Some of the women's. societies reported as much as loo per cent increase in membership.
 . Westminster Guild and Missionary Society entertained the delegates at noon with an old4fashioned hot dinner The following were elected officers of the Birmingham Preshyterial:, Mrs. E. r. Mims, president; Mrs. T. J. Dusen- berry, first vice president; Mrs. J M. Broadly, second vice presidents Mrs. s. R. Ransom, recording secretary. Mrs c. F. Lewis treasurer; Mrs. Reavis O'Neal, secretary of literature; Mrs. 'Dugger. corresponding secretary; Mrs. Alexander. Y. P. secretary.
 Rev. L. F. Brubaker addressed the gathering on "The 1nterchurch World Movement and the New Era and ex- Ilained that more than s4o.000,000 of the S6o.oo0,M to be used in church ex- ransion work had already been raised. and that the goal would no doubt be reached in a short time.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Shall We Drink whitewash?

To the Editor of The Age Herald
 I make no charge, but I merely re- peat what has been told me by a re- sponsible citizen, once connected with the health department.
 if what he says is true. and facts seem to bear out his Statement, tiien the health officer should be impeached for using his office for persona finan- cial gain; in 'Pasteurizing the citys milk supply, in order to put upon the mar ket a friends mechanical deviee; for causing extra expense in .hc nurehas e of m,lk. which is nearly out of each already. and greatest crimo of all for robbing the milk of 40 per cent of it's cream, in order to reimburse those wao loan the Pasteurizing plant to the people, this 10 per cent to be made mp inso butter and sold to the pubic for the private profit of the owners of the plant. This, while the city drinks de- vitalized Blue John" instea of ricn, pure milk.
 If our people wish to drink real milk, they should investigate this matter. If they are too unconcerned to care, they viii probably in the end get lime and water, which making good whitewash, might be mistaken for milk. Yours re- spectfully. LOUIS A. WEAVER.

75 STILL OUTFITS
 WRECKED IN MARCH
Houston County Had, One More Still Than Shelby,
 But Smaller Output

. seventy-five complete stilling outfits and ten additional stands with full equipment of beer,.tools and accessories. were destroyed by federal raiders in Alabama during the month of March, ! Thirty seven arrests were made. and sixty-fiEe prosecutions secured.
 Houston county contributed ten stills, leading all other counties in number, while Shelby furnished nine with a total capacity seven times that"of tho ten found in Houston
 Southeast Alabama furnished a much greater proportion than during the pre- Nious month, but fin general the stills found there were small as compared With the larger commercial types found in the central part of the state.
 The federal prohibition director for Alabama stated that in making these raids and in the enforcement of the law, the federal officers. have had the cooperation and assistance~of the state and municipal authorities, especially the sheriffs throughout the state of Alabama. Likewise the federal officers are assisting the state authorities wherever they can do so in regard to enforcement of the law. The result is that the state, county and federal au- thorities so far as the director has been informed, are working in unison, and in this way have been, and will be in the future, of great assistance to each other in the enforcement of the prohibi- ton laws throughout the state.
 The foregoing statement was given cut by the fedefal prohibition director for Alabama. in regard to the work of the federal law enforcement officers during the month of March, 1920.

 UNDERWOOD CLUB

Washington. April 20.-(Special)- Senator Underwood late this after noon greeted the officers of the un- derwood Club of Washington, an or ganization which came into being dur- ing his absence He thanked the offi- cers for their services and expressed qualification when informed that among Alabamians in Washington there was none desiring the election or either of his opponents. He promised to meet with the club. and deliver an address next Monday evening
 Today the members of the club mailed 4,000 copies of the following letter to their friends and relatives in Alabama:
 T am writing to request you to vote for Senator Underwood May Il. In urging the worth of Senator Under wood, l do not speak in Encouragement of either of his opponents
 'I am not a partisan or factionalist in Alabama politics. I have been in Washington long enough to become aware of the necessity of each state sending it's ablest men to the Senate. Especially is the necessity pressing in this moment of national unrest, out of which it is possible for a revolu- tion to come.
 Tn Washington, by all people, from whatever section of the union they may nave come, senator OnqerW0Od IS regarded as big man who takes a broad, just and statesmanlike posi- tion on all paramount issues. He is clean. and honest and honorable. and caps all his virtues with an ability which has made him a leader and given him the title of the representa- tive south'erner in Congress-
 T know that he reflects great credit on our state and our section of the country. And 1t is as an Ala : oamian who loves his state that I write this letter.
