dress was to the point and was appre,
ciated by all dairymen present.
We might add that Artt Bros. have
some unusually fine dairy COWS.
They are MIXED four times a day
with an average of SO pounds per
COW each day. This is far above the
average for dairy cows of the United
States.
W. H. Olin. D. and R. G. agricultw'
ist, gave an able talk on silos.
He explained why even the small
dairyman should have silo.
DIR. A. F. Miller was next on the
program with the subject of Alfalfa.
He submitted chart showing that
the western slope has an ideal climate
for the raising of alfalfa, even sur
passing the renowned state of Ne"

alfalfa should be cut at the right time
and said that the old rule OF cuttnf

ROCKFORD DEFEATS
 ROCKVILLE BALL NINE

Rockford, April 11.--(Special. )-Tht Rockford baseball nine won a victory over the RichviIle nine on the local field
 Saturday afternoon in an interesting game by a score of to 1. Only very few errors occurred during the game.
 Allen. pitcher for the defeated team. showed rare ability in pitching, but was -Ioutclassed by Hardy. who pitched for T Rockford. The Richvile sluggers made very few hits off Hardy.
 j At the conclusion of the regular game, the prominent men of Rockford engaged fin a very comical game with the home, team, which was featured by the inability lof Dr. Whetstone, prominent doctor, to stand on his feet while running after the ball, the inability of Judge Stewart, I probate judge of Coosa county, to find and pick up the ball.
 H. ". Pond, who caught behind the bat for the old men, kept up barley with the umpire, instructing him as to baseball rules, which remarks brought < much laughter from the onlookers. Not withstanding this fact. Pond proved to be on his job Rev. J. A. Gam, inas- much as he was the youngest of the bunch on the old mems team, did most of the running. Shurett, on account or his weight, gave up attempting to run. Among the prominent men on the old mems team were Judge G. H. Stewart, 5, probate judge of Coosa county; ". +. |, :Shurett, probate clerk; G. T. Rayfield' circuit court clerk; H. W. Pond, promi- nent lawyer: pr. Whetstone, George Mo Donald, sheriff; Rev. J. A. Gam, ]. H. Mcdonald, J. D. Brown and Ernest Brown F. L. Boyet, cashier of the Rock 8ord hank, acted as umpire.

SPLENDID OFFERING
 AT LYRIC THEATRE

Song and dance constitutes the of- fering of the Homer sisters which is the opening act on the bill at the Lyric theatre for the first half of the week. The act is divided into two scenes with several changes of cos tun es. Both the young women in the act possess. pleasing voices and in ad- dition they dance well. They were awarded a generous encore.
 Vaudeville Etiquette followed the Homers. done by George Lee and Avis Bennett. Mr. Lee is featured as a vaudeville teacher and he pulls some comical stuff, but needs to. slow up a bit and talk less strenuously. Miss Bennett, his partner, is very person. able and proved attractive to the spec tators.
 The trials and tribulations of 8 young suburban couple are brought out in Bungalow Love- a comedy playlet. Les Morgan and Beryl Grey both give fine account of themselves as the couple in question. The lines of the playlet are mostly of the hut morously auarrelsome type. The act ends to applause and a big laugh.
 Two accomplished musicians play on number of instruments in the fourth act. They are billed the Jack Hughes Duo. The banjo and the violin proved very popular. This act got the best encore of the entire bill
 Little Jim's act proved scream, in spite of the fact that it promised at first to be conventional animal act. Little Jim is huge bear, but the in terest of the act was not in the ami nal so much as the fun of seeing soma volunteers from the audience go up and wrestle with him.

The Devils Pass Key" d story of a playwright in Paris, who dramatized his own wife's indiscretions to learn later what he had done, is aside from locale q picture play, typically French. It is French in plot. ideals and acting It is French down to the very smallest detail of production such as house decorations, pictures staturary
 sam de Grasse Una Treyelyn. Clyde Fillmore and Maude George are caste in the principal roles of the production. While sam de Grasse is the playwrig h and the central character of the love theme, Clyde Fillmore takes an out standing role as the young American at tache. who embarrassingly rich, is in Paris for a good time. The good time that the attache finds is one love in trigue after another and yet there is never any manner of apology or retribu tion for his alnours
 And such queer sort is Warren Good wright. the playwright one who loves and dreams while his wife is piling up bills at the exclusive modiste shop. He is short-sighted and impracticable. His wife. acted by Una Trevolyn. is a beau tiful woman who dresses to fill his dreams of her, not reckoning the cost She finds. however. that there is another side to the modiste shop a room, where the women who cannot payN their bills in one way can pay them in another. The events that follow along here are indiscrete but unharmful. but they reach the public, the Paris public, with it $ cruel sense of humor.

 Alabama, are expected to be here during the sessions, which will begin Tuesday, and will continue through Wednesday. Chief interest Monday centered about
 the organization of the postgraduate i course, a feature which has attracted
 much attention throughout the state among the fraternity. Three persons
 prominent in the profession of the north and east have come to Montgomery for the instruction of their brethren of Ala bama. They are Dr. T. W. Mayes of
 Minneapolis Dr. I. L. F'urnas of C1eve- land and pr. Frank F. Mott of Chicago.
 Another feature of the convention will l be lectures on office efficiency It nas
 been no secret in the business world that professional men have not until re-
 cent years given any attention to the idea of business efficiency and that often the finest professional men could hardly do their work because of the disarrange- iment o1 ther o1IlceS. 1ne oental asSo~ citation is attempting to show it's mem
 bers that it is as much a necessity for dentists to maintain their offices proper l 1y and with the latest labor-saving de- vices as for any other office or organi- zation Harry Bosworth of Chicago will lecture to the members of the associa- tion on office Efficiency"

LOEW'S BILL ONE OF
 THE BEST OF SEASON

Lsoew's Bijou presents for the first half of the week one of the best bal- ancAd vaudeville bills that has visited Birmingham in some time. Comedy, harmony and novelty acts are included in the bill which rank among the top liners of it's class.
 Ralph Whitehead heads the bill with character Representations presenting one of the cleverest and cleanest acts which has been at the local house in many months. Whitehead is more or less a stranger to vaudeville, coming to variety from the musical comedy stage. His act was well received
 The three Kanazawa brothers in an act featuring foot balancing displayed unusual dexterity and made a hit Come and Albert clever young man and girl took the audience back to the days when they were in a grammar school Songs and dances featured the act.
 Arthur Sullivan and Cora Hall pre- scented Comedy skit entitled, "A Drawing From Life" which made a hit. The idea of the playlet was unusual. The McMahon sisters occupied the first spot and presented some first-class song numbers, which pleased the audi ence.
 Pauline Frederick in The Mistress of Shenstone" completed the bill, with comedies and news events.
