NESb|TT ID CALL
 DISTRICT PRIMARY Democrats Probably Will Call Primary In Fourth to Name
 Congress Candidate

Montgomery. February 26.-(Special) W. D, Nesbitt, chairman of the state democratic executive committee. Is ex- pected to issue a call during the next few days for meeting of the state democratic executive committee for the purpose of arranging democratic pri- mary in the Fourth congressional dis trict, which will select a nominee for congressman as the successor of Con- gressman Fred l.. Blackmon. deceased.
 It became known today that Chair man Nesbitt has been in correspon- dence with various democrats of the Fourth district and has obtained their views which are unanimous in favor of a primary. AS no district democratic executive committee is in existence. the call for the primary must be is- sued by the state committee. Demo crats want primary in order that all forces of democracy may be unified in the special election which Governor Kilby will call for the selection of a congressman. Republicans cast two- thirds as many votes as the democrats in the November election and 1t is feared division of democracy in tho special election might result in the election of republican.
 Maj. Lamar Jeffers of Anniston. who will be candidate for the democratic nomination. came to Montgomery to- day and conferred with friends. He left at 6 o'clock for his home. going by way of Birmingham The only other candidate for the democratic nopina- tion is s. F. Mcdonald of Sylacauea.

How Much Is Manure Worth?

From the County Agent in Farm Life.
 One of the reasons for starting the ac- count on the special crop this early is that the grower can keep exact account of the loads cf manure put on the field and also the time 1t takes to put these on. In this crop account, no allowance should be made for guesswork as to the number of loads hauled or the number of hours 1t look to apply 1t. Just how much ton of manure is worth varies considerably with the rate of applica- tion and the crop upon which 1t ax placed. A ton of manure is worth more when put on lightly than when put on heavily. It is also worth more when ap- piled in rotation than when applied to one crop growing successively on the same field. M
 These little points on fertility arc well worth remembering because in the courss of year they freluently mean added income to the owner. A ton of ordinary manure figured on the basis of the fer tility which it contains at the prices which have ruled for the various Als- ments. is worth about $265. However. in the crop income which it produces. ma nure may be worth more or 1t may hs worth less.

CHURCH WIDE SURVEY HOME
MISSION WORK

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 1s;-Rev. A.
C. Sumbrennen, city survey secre--
ts.ry of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, with headquarters ct
Nashville, Tenn, has worked out a
scinetific and practical plan for
making church wide survey Of con-
ditions. throughout Southern Metho-
dist territory in the United States
According to Mi Sumbrunnen,
the result of his survey will be pre-
scented to the general conference at
its approaching session in May,
1922, in the form Of a memorial
asking that a great campaign OF oc-
cupatlon be planned and the next
ten years be devoted to strengthen
ing the home mission work. The
survey was prepared at the request
OF home mission secretaries who
felt that one Of the chief difficulties
in dealing with the home mission
problem was due to lack of infor-
m;ttlon as to needs, where they were
located, and how to meet them.
Through the home mission otflc-
ials, the general conference will be
asked to make proper legislation au-
thcrizing an intensive campaign IN
home mission fields which shall have

FOR its objects first, bringing up to
100 per cent efficiency all the work
in the territory now occupied; sec
ond. to occupy adequately the I'M
reached territory within the bounds
Of the Southern Methodist Church.
Mr.. Sumbrunnen says, "Tnis pro-
gram should extend over the next
ten years. We must know. all our
fields, as to buildings, men, and
money. There is too much waste
land both in city and country. Our
ideal is that every parish, charge
and district line. Shall touch every
other parish, charge and district
line: thus in time eliminating the
great unreached areas, within our
connection"

TO RULE ON WAGE CUT
Rail Unions Names Committee oil
Five to Receive Reports.
100000 Employees at Work at Re-
duced Wages Under Labor
Boards Decision.

Chicago-Final decision as to wheth-
er the 100000 railway employees of
the country who started to work for
reduced wages, shall accept or reject
the $400,000,000 annual wage decrease,
which Vent into effect Friday, win be
referred to a committee of five repre-
senting is railroad unions.
Executives of the union reached this
decision and instructed the committee
to receive reports from the various
group meetings now in Chicago and
formulate general recommendations to
the union membership.
The committee is composed of B.
NJ. Jewell, president of. the railway en-
ployees' department Of the American
Federation Of Labor: e. H. Fitzgerald,
president of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way and Steamship Clerks, Freight
Handlers, Express and Station EN-
ployees; L. E. Sheppard, president of
the Order of Railway Conductors; E.
Marion, president of the Order of Rail-
road Photographers; and W. F. Krider,
president of the International Brother
hood Of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen.
While union leaders voiced general
dissatisfaction of the rail workers to-
ward the United States labor board
decision authorizing a wage cut, there
were predictions that they will vote to
abide by the order with some formal
protest, these being based on the fact
that the union leaders have the author
ity to do so, and with their knowledge
of industrial conditions, will not advo-
cate swelling the ranks of the unem-
ployed.
A decision on their part to order a
walkout would in any event, not be
final, as such an order would first be
submitted to a referendum vote OF
many organizations that have not yet
voted on the question.
1t is definitely known by referen-
dums taken in the railroad department
of the American Federation of Labor
that the majority Of the rank and file
of rail workers are against the IL per
cent wage cut.
