ASK ROAD MACHINERY
Selma Delegation to Appear Before
Highway Commission

Selma, May 16.-(Special.) Judge w. M
Moughon, Morgan Richards and. e.
Frank Cothran went to Montgomery to-
day as a committee from the chamber
of commerce to appear before the state
highway commission to make application
for some valuable road machinery which
the federal government will distribute 70
the counties through the commission toI
road building purposes. 1t is understood
that five carloads of this machinery, con-
sisting of tanks, scrapers, plows, etc.
left as a legacy from the war, have been
received in Montgomery and will be as
signed where it can be utilized to the
best purpose in road work.
A combined application will be MADE
by Dallas Montgomery and Lowndes
counties to secure an assignment OF the
machinery for use on the Selma Mont
gomery road, which is said to be in al
most an impossible condition. That por-
ton of the road in Big Swamp bottom
has bene put in fine condition, but there
is stretch of the road between Benton
and the bottom which is cut up and
washed out to such an extent that auto
mobiles are again being forced through
Autaugua county between the two cities.
If the machinery can be obtained it will
be put into service at once on the Ben
ton road to make demonstration OF
what it can do.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
HAS IDEALISTIC IDEAS

Washington, May ESPECIALLY Harry
M. Daugherty Attorney General, is ad-
mittedly a practical politician. And yet
he has idealistic ideas
For instance, he tells newspaper cor
respondents that much is wrong with
American methods Of criminal prosecu-
ton and punishment. He says that ne
can find reasonably large percentage
OF inmates of criminal institutions whom
ne would trust as far as he would trust
any other individual. And he stands for
separation of the hardened" and the
hardening" in penitentiaries so that the
latter might be saved while hope OF
salvation remains.
But he is very much of a politician. He
does not deny it. For instance, when he
made an Oklahoman, Dyches by name,
warden of the penitentiary at Atlanta,
he permitted it to be understood that In
no other way could he settle a republi-
can dispute in Oklahoma regarding pa
tronage. Dyches, incidentally, was a
protege of Jake Hamon, one of the lead
ing lights in republican national politics
until an accident removed him from the
scene.
And again, Mr.. Daugherty did not
hesitate to appoint Perry Howard. a ne
gro of Mississippi, assistant Attorney
General. with the assignment to special
ize in claims against the government.
There are perhaps other lawyers more
expert than the Henry Lincoln Johnson
of Mississippi, who could have been per-
suaded to accept this lucrative position
But the negro, in the opinion of Daugh-
erty, is a political factor Of growing i'm
portance.
Incidentally, 1t Is admitted that Daugt-
erty Is right. Since women votes the
negro voters of Ohio number $4,000
When democrats spot republicans that
many votes in a single state, their eff
fort to win the state is seriously handi-
capped.
So Perry, who calls himself and by his
political brethren is called Colonel"
gets the job. Henry Lincoln Johnson OF
Georgia will get one, too.

Weekly Lumber Market
Report from the Chicago
American Lumberman

While there has been some de-
crease in the total volume of orders
booked, this decrease has not been
sufficient to affect the strength of
the market and in fact is due to some
extent to the growing shortage of
grades and sizes in most demand.
! Buying by the retail lumbermen con-
tinues fairly heavy and the industrial
trade is still picking up. The vol
ume of home building which is al
ready under way assures the purchas-
ing of lot of lumber by retailers
this fall. Consequently the fall out
look for business is considered good.
Prices have shown a decided firm
ing up tendency, especially for South
ern pine and Douglas fir. During
the last two weeks many grades of
these two woods have advanced from
So to SIS thousand feet. A big de-
mand for lath has developed and this
item is regaining some of its lost
ground. While prices still are very
low they have shown some material
advances.
Retailers generally are seeking to
AGCp NACI1 SLOCh wei assorted Out as
low as possible and consequently are
buying in raixed cars rather than
straight cars. This tendency is
slowing up the volume of orders plac-
ed because in the Southern pine ter
ritory. and in the Douglas fir terri
tory, the grades and sizes in most de-
mand are scarce and purchasers in
many cases have to go from mill to
mill before one can be located which
will book the order. It is customary
for the volume of buying to be fair
~ heavy at this season and for Ium-
Der prices to advance under the pres
sure of this buying. so that the pres
ent situation is nothing unusual. Re-
tail dealers report a great many in
quries already received for 1922
business and every indication is that
the year is going to be a very ac-
tive home building year; consequent
ly all divisions of the lumber, trade
are optimistic.

forbidden Fruit" at
Magic Theater Oct. IA

Cecil B. DeMille has produced an.
other great classic of the motion pic.
ture screen, story of one of the
deepest problems that can come into
any human life-with solution that
will appeal to the finest sensibilties
Of either man or woman. It is an
other story of married life in which
wealth clashes with poverty, duty
with love, honor with desire.
Tense and dramatic in every mo-
ment of its length, this production
will hold you in the grip of its magic
power from the instant the charact-
ers are introduced, until the great
problem of the principals is solved
solved in a terrific climax that will
take your breath away.
Mr.. DeMille has invested "Forbid-
den Fruit" with more lavish and beau
tiful scenes and settings than any
other picture he has produced. The
gowns are remarkable for their beau
ty, and the production is in every
sense a feast for the eyes. 1t is a
dramatic triumph, and it gives food
for thought.
This feature will be shown at the
Magic City Theater Friday, October
IA; admission lie and 33c.

the Chinese ring neck is recommend
ed because of the fecundity of the
species, their hardness and the gamey
qualities Of the bird. It is the hope
Of the Conservation Department that
farmers generally will enter upon this
profitable sideline of farming, be-
cause it will add another important
industry to the state, reimburse the
farmer directly, and indirectly result
in the profit of the entire people of
the state. As the stock increases
there would naturally be some escapes
into the woods, and in time would be
added to the game birds of the state
very important species, which
would delight the heart of the sports
man and at the same time do much
to keep down other farm vermin, and
thus help increase production on the
farms.
The farmer who desires to enter
upon this enterprise can secure from
the dealer from whom he buys the
stock printed directions as to the care
and raising of the birds. or he can
communicate with the Conservation
Department of the State, which will
supply the necessary in
formation gathered from the most re-
liable sources in the country.

A pair Of Chinese pheasants can
