EXPECT RESULTS FROM CLUBS
Beautiful Sections Are Hailed
With Much Enthusiasm.

The beautiful mile idea, we I'M
derstand, originated In the mind of
Billie Maltby, the manager of the
club, who is actively engaged in work
ing out the details of the club. In
u opinion he has conceived an idea
which is going to result In great good
in the building of better roads, better
homes, and the making Of a better cit
izenship. The idea is taking root in
other sections, and we would not be
surprised to see beautiful mile"
clubs organized all ove Alabama with
in the next IL months. The idea will
be carried into the towns and cities
and beautiful street. clubs will be
organized. Everybody will wan to
live on a beautiful mile" road or a
beautiful street" And, in the Ian
guage of the Birmingham News, Billie
Maltby has started something which
is going to keep the eyes of the public
on the original beautiful mile club.
They are going to see what it does
and how it does 1t. Here's hoping
that they come up to the full expec-
tations of those who are looking on

Matters on Which Prospective Citizen
Will Do Well to Satisfy Him.
self Before Locating.

In the opinion of one who has given
much thought to the question of civic
betterment along various lines, the
following points should be settled to
his satisfaction before decision to
make a home in any town is definitely
arrived at:
Llving-Can we live reasonably and
we'll In that town? Are the best of
modern c~Onveniences available for its
misunderstanding. gas. telephone,
ETC.? Are the housing and shopping
conditions favorable? Rents, taxes,
and prices fairf Hotels good? Home
and truck gardens and dairy products
plentiful?
Accessibility-Can we go and come
easily? Does the town have adequate
railroad connections and train serv-
Ice? Street car. lines? Interurban
lines? Well-marked automobile routes
and h~ard-surface roads?
Business-Can make good use of
capital In that town? Are there bank
Ing facilities? Manufacturing inter-
ests? Up To date stores? Good ship
ping facilities? Favorable labor con-
ditions? A prosperous farming ter
ritory? Active cooperation among
business interests?
Employment-Can 1 get n job in
that town at fair pay and with good
prospects for the future? Can I count
on cooperation from organizations
making it their business to help in
reduce and establish new commercial
interests and to welcome new cit
liens?
Progressiveness-Shall 1 find that
l am In a town having u progressive
city government, active civic organ
i~zation, modern fire protection, and a
pull-together spirit in everything-a
town with a future?-L. N. Flint,

eiIiboards In the Cleanup.

The cleanup campaign fostered as a
preparation for the American Legion
convention is progressing well. Indi-
vlduals have taken hold in good shape.
People are cleaning up their yards and
painting their houses. That is about
as far us individuals can go.
Now it is up to the city to take a
hand in the Identification program by
banishing the billboards from the resi-
dence districts. Nobody has a right to
damage his neighbours property by
setting up a big sign across the street
from n residence. or next to n resi-
dence. Nobody has n right to damage
the community by introducing glazing
signs or "A boulevard or into n resi-
dence district.-Kansas City Star.

munity II 10 Easier to Dispose Of
the Surplus Stock.

A market is established which, be-
cause of the availability of large num-
bers of animals, attracts those who buy
large consignments. Under such cir
cumstances all surplus stock may be
disposed of to better advantage, and
cooperative advertising also may be
used effectively. In addition, bulls
may be bought comparatively OF ex-
changed with facility, thus very mate
rally reducing the cost of service In
the herd.
Any necessary additions to the herd
can be obtained, without expense for
travel. from nelghbors' herds with
whose history the buyer Is thoroughly
familiar. These advantages apply not
only to the breeder OF purebred cattle,
but also to the owners of grades.
In this country there is a very wide
range of conditions, as TO both to-
Biography and climate. On rich, level
pastures all breeds thrive, but on
rough. hilly land, where pasturage is
scant, they do not show equal adapt.
ability. In the extreme cold OF the
North, with Its long winters, different
resisting qualities are needed as com.
pared with the almost tropical heat In
the southern parts of the country.
In the United States -four breeds of
dairy cattle have attained consider.
able prominence, namely the Ayrshire,
Guernsey, Observation-Disclosures and Jer-
sey. These breeds have been devel.
oped carefully for a long time for the
purpose of dairy production, and In
consequence each transmits Its char.
acteristics with regularity to Its of.
spring. Certain distinct features dis.
tnguish zach breed from the others,
but all possess ability as milk pro
ducers. There is, of course, consider.
able variation In the characteristics
of individuals within each breed.

bottle of Tanlac got her up, on the
second bottle she commenced keeping
