Whhe the state department has said nothing relative to the Bryan address, 1t Is said to be true that the adminis- tration would be pleased were nothing done to disturb the friendly relations between this country and the other coun- tries or the world MT. Bryan's speech was labeled. Enduring Government It was prohibition speech and an endur- Ing government, in the opinion of the speaker, was one which obeyed the law irrespective of its dislike of the law.
 A FEW INSULTS
 Regarding the alleged conspiracy on the part of other countries to interfere with American statutes. MT. Bryan said: !:
 The third matter to consider in con- nection with enforcement is that other nations should respect our right to make our laws as we please, and to enforce them as made At present the Canadian territory adjoining us on the north and the British isles near our eastern coast and Cuba and Mexico, our near neighbors on the south. are being used as the base fer conspiracies against our laws.
 "Bimini, for instance a practically worthless island, 10 miles from the Flor ida coast, has been converted into depot for intoxicating liquors, which are sent out from there to various points between Savannah and Key West The British government derives millions in revenue from liquor taken into Bimini for no other purpose than to smuggie it into the United States
 'Caada Cuba and Mexico, through their revenue laws. profit from the sale of liquors destined for the United States. Such conduct can hardly be regarded as friendly, and cannot be defended when the case is brought before the bar of conscience. None of these nations would for moment think of allowing their flag to protect band of pirates who preyed upon our commerce, and our nation would not be long in registering pro- test.

the man? Are we more concerned about trade than about morals?"
 HUGHES IS LAUDED
 This was construed as a suggestion to the state department to force England to stop smuggling on the part of it's na- tionals into the United States He con tnued:
 Are we more indignant about the loss of merchandise than about the invasion of our homes by an enemy that has been oatlawed by constitutional act? This question must soon become an interna- tional matter"
 It was regarded as tantamount to an injunction to the Secretary of State, Do your duty, MT. Hughes" And then MT Bryan followed that suggestion by a compliment
 We are fortunate in having as Secre- tary of State man who has shown by bis judicial decisions and by his profess sional conduct that he is not in sym pathy with this lawless traffic"

CONDEMNATION OF CAR

The case of the state vs, a five-passen- ger automobile seeking condemnation for illegally transporting liquor from one point to another in the state was tried in circuit court today before Judge J.. c. B. Gwin. The case aroused a good deal of interest on account of the evi- dence and the decision rendered in con- nection with it. Although 1t was proven that there was whisky In the car, two officers having seen 1t placed there, it is stated, still they could not prove the car had transported the whisky, since the men had been arrested before the car started, so it could not be con- demned.

For Good of the Community

nau no occasion C0 worry over the price of cotton last fall or has now His cream stood and stands for cash at every week end. He sees money flowing into his pocket as milk issues from the COW.
 The Selma creameries paid out S275,- OO0to the COW owners of Dallas county and vicinity last year. This is more than 6 per cent on S4,500,000. It is the same to these COW owners and milkers as though they had good securities in that amount safely invested at per cent.
 Very recently the Selma creamery shipped car load of condensed milk to the Anheuser-Busch company, New Or leans, Tn a car attached to a passenger train That much has this young industry grown. When plant turns out stuff that goes by the car load on fast express sched- ule to faraway places, 1t may be said to have arrived.
 The Tuscaloosa creamery is younger, but working out the same all-around bene- fits in that county Where there were two farmers with cream separators supplying this creamery, there are nov twenty-five. Over fifty herds are contributing the daily milk supply. Any man may engage in the business. Some of the herds include only three and four cows.
 The number of owners and of cows is increasing month by month. Of course this is the case This is not a country where man either in city or country turns his back on good coin of the realm obtainable in cash at the end of each week.
 The state farm attached to the insane asylum at Tuscaloosa has next to the largest herd To that extent this institu- tion supports itself. Business conduct of other state institutions will enable them also to partially or wholly support them selves. Paths of usefulness extend every where.
 A Tuscaloosa bank bought twenty-five purebred cows recently and offered them to the farmers at cost on easy payments. Did the offer go unaccepted? Not by any means One hundred farmers wanted the cows. The bank will bring in another car load to meet this demand
 Is the bank altruistic? Yes; but altru- ism is the highest form of common sense Each farmer who milks these cows and gets the money for the butterfat from the creamery will become bank depositOr He will not forget the bank which enabled him to get the COW that made the money to put in the bank.
 The same bank is doing another service for the farm. It is offering hundred set tings of eggs of purebred strain to as many farm girls and boys. The idea is to cultivate the raising of the type of fowl that is worth it's feed, that lays more eggs than the scrub chicken and weighs more when it is slaughtered for market.
 Up in the Boaz section the, average grown hen now sent to market is reported as weighing three and a half pounds against former average of something like one and half pounds. The increase in weight has come from the crossing of purebred stock with the native as we'll as the cultivation of the purebred stock it. self
 And that is how whatever is good per- colates through an entire community The Boaz farmer is making more money with more eggs and larger birds for market and he buys more at the stores. In Tusca- loosa the creamery is making money, the farmer furnishing the milk is making
