pervised the culling on March g. At that time we had 500 hens We culled 240 non producers, leaving us. 36o. We sold the culls for s242.4 For the month of February we sold eggs to the amount or S121.19. Our feed cost was s132.92, giving us g. loss of S1lT3 with the $500 hens, eggs averaging 35 cents per dozen On March and for the balance of March we had only 260 hens which of sl1.73 with the 500 hens, eggs sold for $130.51, feed cost $47.54, leay- ing us a profit of sS2.97, price of eggs for March averaging 29 cents per dozen Our hens at this period are still laying heavy for the season and we are making a clear profit instead of loss as before the cull- ing took place"
 Mir and Mrs. wilmes say: Our Plymouth Rock hens were not laying enough eggs to jusIiry keeping the whole flock so we asked Mir. Luce to come out and look them over. The feed was all right SD the fault lay with the boarder hen. Mir. Luce then showed us the method used to de- termine laying and non-laying hens. We culled the flock that night. From a flock of 100 hens we cuIled out 32 and put them into the fattening pen. The next day we gathered the usual amount of eggs and have continued to do so from the flock that was left after the culling. The gain m our saving on feed is quite an item
 The Glendale Commercial club has placed advertisements in the six lead ing poultry journals of the country. It is the aim of the secretary to do al fin, hi +r, q T. ley as a poultry center. With more producers and commercial poultry men in the business nere, ors,aniza tions for storing and marketing of eggs would naturally follow and make conditions better for all poultrymen. It has been said many times and truthfully in regard to this valley, that a living can be made from five to ten acre tracts. How better than with poultry? Glendale is doing all possible to bring in successful poul trymen from the outside who have some money, enough to pay cash for their small tract of land. to equip 1t with fences and buildings and to start with some stock. Mary new ideas will be learned through the experiments of the Glendale station. Better housing, artificial lighting, and other late ideas should be adopted here.
 Mr. Luce of the local station has given us his opinion of this district for poultry raising:
 After many years on the Pacific coast in connection with the poultry industry, I am firmly convinced that TO section of the Southwest is bet ter suited for the purpose of grow ing poultry and turkeys. This val ley has an almost ideal climate, with long growing seasons, winter con- ditions unequalled anywhere, ease with which labor can be performed raising of green feed all seasons of the year and feed stuffs as cheap as any section of the country, hous- ing problems readily solved, freedom from diseases and excellent soil with a dry atmosphere for sanitation. seems to me to make for a poultry mans paradise. If poultry raisers in this district will put forth their efforts in the right way, we can see no reason why they should not suc- ceed.''
 The Commercial club of Glendale is preparing an attractive poultry fold- CT which will be ready for distrib- ution soon.

One Of the romances Of the British
peerage of the story of how Lord Ed
mund Talbot, who has just been
named Lord Lieutenant and Governor
General OF ireland, missed becoming
the premier peer, the premier duke
and the premier earl of the British
realm, as we'll as hereditary earl
marshal and president of the College
Of Heralds. As a son of the 18th
Duke of Norfolk Lord Edmund stood
for years in the position of prospec-
tive heir to the title held by the aged
18th Duke of Norfolk. The direct
heir was the only o of the Duke,
an afflicted youth who was born
deaf, dumb adm blind, as well as an
imbecile. At the age of % the young
man died, leaving Lord Edmund as
next in line to the great titles and
estates. But when nearing his Goth
year the Duke of Norfolk took a sec
cnG wife and several years later a
son was born to the couple. BY an
odd coincidence this son, who is now
the 12-year-old Duke of Norfolk, hav-
ing succeeded to the title upon the
death of his 'ather in 1917, was born
on the birthday anniversary OF Lord
Edmund.

INVESTIGATION IS
 URGED BY STRIKERS
Statement Says Unions Prln- cipIes Based on Law 0b-
 servance, Not Violation

J. Floyd Davis, acting secretary local division 186, Order of Railway Conductors, submits the following statement regarding the recent At lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic wreck:
 "The press of date contains statement concerning a wreck on the Atlanta, Birmingham and Allan tic at Cascade crossing, about eight miles out of Atlanta. in which En- gineer Morris was killed and three colored men injured. Eleven cars and engine were derailed and dam aged. Receiver Bugg stated that while he had not received official report of the wreck, he had been informed that it was caused by dyna- mite, and he would request Cover nor Hardwick to extend military protection to the Atlanta, Birm 'ng- ham and Atlantic railway property and it's employees. We have no in- formation as to the cause of N,the wreck but we do know that every time a wreck has occurred on the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic railway since March 5, an attempt has been made to create the impr ss- sion in the minds of the public that the trouble was caused by the atril<- CTS. or their friends. It is unneces- sary to say we disapprove of anyone, at any time, under any circum- stances, contributing in the least to the case of wrecking train; such conduct is reprehensible and mex cusable. We deny any responsibili- ty for the protection of anyone en- gagged in the commission of crime of this character, but we feel sure that the strikers are innocent of any connection whatever concerning this wreck.
 The policy of the organization in this and other strikes has been to proceed along the lines of decent. honorable and orderly conduct, and in no instance, to our knowledge, have the strikers on the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic railway acted contrary to this policy. We do not believe there is a single an- archist among the ranks of the At- lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic strikers. On the contrary, we be- lieve all the men and women now on strike have faith in American principles and institutions, and. if

necessary. like their forefathers are willing to make sacrifices to inain- tain and keep sacred these princi- ples..
 "Governor Hardwick has offered reward of $500 for the apprehension, arrest and conviction of the person or persons who wrecked this train, and expressed the hope that all the responsible leaders of organized la bor in the state would do all in their power to assist him in his efforts in this case. I desire to assure the governor of the hearty cooperation of my associate officers, the Allan ta Birmingham and Atlantic com mittee and myself In his efforts to maintain the majestey of the law and peace and dignity of the state. "The principles of the orgaaiza- tion connected with the Atlanta. Birmingham and Atlantic railway strike are based on law observance, not law violation. We hold that no man or set of men are above the law. and that all who hold to con trary opinion and commit crime should and will of necessity even u- ally be held to strict accountabil- ity at the bar of public justice.
 U. M. LARISEY. ''vice President order of Railway Conductors. Acting Chairman of Joint Officers Committee"
 The following telegram was sent to w. P. Borland, chief United States bureau of safety, Washington:
 'Tn the interest of the safety of the public, we, as representatives of the recognized standard railroad la Dor organizations at Atlanta most earnestly urge that the United States bureau of safety make an immedi- ate and searching investigation of the numerous accidents ahd hazard of accidents reported to have csHt- iy occurred on the Atlanta.

WANT INTEREST ON COUNTY MONEYS IN BANKS OF STATE

 or Against

bill requiring the treasurer
 of every county in the state to
 place county funds in deposit
 taries which will pay interest on
 the money Is being prepared and
 will be submitted to the Alabama
 legislature at it's special session
 which will probably be held next
 month. according to R statement
 of John c. Arnold. member of the
 legislature from this county.
 Thousands of dollars are being lost annually by the various counties in the state, 1t Is stated, as q result of their county treasurers failing to re- quire interest on county funds depos- 1ted in banks throughout the state. The general law being considered is for the purpose of giving the coun- ties the same benefits from interest on their money that individual de- positors receive from these banks.
 Governor Approves
 Gov. Thomas D. Kilby has ex- pressed himself as being In favor of this county obtaining interest on it's money, according to information in the hands of MT. Arnold, and he has indicated that he will lend his en- couragement and assistance to the passage of such law if a special session of the legislature is called.
 The bill requiring M V. Henry treasurer of Jefferson county, to de- posit the county funds in depositaries where they will draw interest is be- ing prepared by Mir. Arnold, and will be sponsored by him at the special session. Within the past few years several efforts have been made to pass a law to secure interest on funds Two such bills have been introduced in the legislature, but failed of passage in the senate. A bill of this kind was introduced in the legislature in 1919 by w. E. Dick son, seeking to compel the county treasurer to obtain interest on county money. He also led the fight for its passage on the floor of the house. It was passed in the house but in the senate it was allowed to die in com mittee. The same bill was again in- troduced at the special session of the legislature in the summer of 1920, but met with the same fate.
 At Special Session
 MT. Arnold will sponsor the bill when 1t is again introduced, as Mir. Dickson, who first introduced it, has resigned IToin lHo JSiiSi Soi SOuHs' delegation to accept place on the jury commission and to make the race for the city commission at the election.
 Mir. Henry, county treasurer, de- clares he has no intention of secur- ing interest on county funds until there is a law authorizing him to do so, as he does not care to assume the In the absence of such B law. Although there is no law recurring the treasurer to secure in- terest on county funds, there Is none to prohibit his doing so, it is pointed out.

DO YOU REMEMBER


 The great mass meeting held the next day after the cyclone swept through this city along or near Avenue l, killing people and destroying homes?
 How the rooms of the Conner cial club were crowded until standing room was at a premium ?
 How. when the taking of the collection for the relief of the sufferers began, the contributors called out their names and amounts faster than the secretary could possibly take them down, and names and amounts of con- tributions were written on the backs of envelopes, on scraps of newsprint paper the newspaper men were using to report the meeting, and any other paper that was available, and these papers passed up to the secretary's desk many of them with their money pinned to the papers?
 Who is it that remembers that meeting, whose heart does not throb with pride in his people at such a manifestation of fellow feeling and humanity?
