Petition Is Taken Under Ad- ViSement by State Public
 Service Board

Montgomery. July 11.-(Speclal.)- The public service commission yes terday heard and took under advise ment the stition of the Alabama Ice Manufae # CTS association for an or der dh ling the Alabama Power company to make a seasonal or dit- ferential rate to manufacturers Of ice in this state.
 Stuart Mckenzie of Montgomery and Ben Davis of Birmingham ap- peared for the ice manufacturers, while the company was represented by William L, Martin, general coun- sel R. l.. Ellis of Miami Beach, Fla. formerly of Selma, Ala, was the chief witness for the ice com panies.

STATE FARMERS
 USE MORE FLOWS
Acreage Under Cultivation Is Also Greater Than
 Last Year
By FRED H. GoRMIEY Montgomery Bureau. The Age-Herald, 221-s First National Bank Building

Montgomery, July 11.-(Special.,-- Alabama farmers have increased the number of blows operated this year by per cent over the number run last year, and have increased the numbers of acres in cultivation by 5 per cent, according to report .s- sued by F. W. Gist. federal and state statistioan for agriculture today.
 The following statement gives the estimated acreage planted to the crops named this year, together with the comparative acreage to the same crops last year:
 Corn. 3.636.O00. 1922; corn, 4,o42,- 900 for 1921; per cent. 90.
 Cotton, 2,9s5, 900, 1922; 2,26s,0oo for 1921 per cent, l32.
 Hay s52.o .oo0. 1922; s36, ,ooo for 1927 ger cent, IA.
 Sweet potatoes, 1s3,0O0. 1922; 1Ss.- GOO for 1922; per cent. 12i.
 Number of blows operated, S6s,o90i ger cent, 104.
 The acreage devoted to pasturage this year is about equivalent to that utilized last year, 2,500,000 acres.
 The acreage planted to peanuts on solid acres will probably not all be harvested, if the custom of former years is followed. Last year only 330, 900 acres were harvested for nuts. If the same proportion is harvested this year the gathered acres will be only 25l 900 Nothing definite can be told on this point. however, until harvest Is completed.

Ku Klux Speaker Is
 Heard at GreenuilIe

Greenville, July Especial. )-Dr. T. J. Mashburn, a public lecturer of the Ku Klux Klan of Atlanta, de. livered an address on the purposes of the organization and on the prin- oiples of the order here at the Green vile opera house Sunday afternoon. Dr. Mashburn spoke to crowded house of enthusiastic hearers and was frequently applauded.
 The address was opened with re- view of the stormy meeting of the city commission of Birmingham sev- eral weeks ago when an ordinance was defeated prohibiting parades of masked men in that city. He told of the opposition of the clan, and re- futed many of the attacks that the clan has been subjected to. and de- nied the fact that the organization had anything to do with the whip pings that have recently occurred in the Magic City or anywhere else.
 The speaker outlined the principles of the order and from the applause which followed the announcement of them 1t would be supposed that the ma jority of his hearers were in sym pathy with the organization.

University. July 11.-(special.) - The new Dramatic Club that has been organized among the summer school students under the direction of Mir. Hanlein of Mobile Is making a great headway despite hot wenther and tests.
 MT. Hanlein seems highly pleased with the results so far and the per formances given have met with the most hearty approval of the students.
 The summer school is particularly fortunate in having with 1t some of the Blackfriars of the regular term.
 The club has put on number of comedy acts and one or two one-act plays among which was Suppressed Desires.
 The prospects for success during the last half of the summer school are very promising for by the time tho second term gets in operation the direstor will be able to know more about his actors and actresses.
 There will also be some new plays available by that time and 1t is ex- pected that the club will do even mora than 1t has been doing in the past to break the monotony of the recitation rooms.

DROUGHT IN ELM0RE
 COUNTY IS ALARMING

Wetumpka. July 11.=(Special)- )-- The crops of Elmore county except in very few small areas, are show ing the need of rain and even the cotton crop, which stands dry weather far better than others. Is beginning 10 show signs of the drought and, in cases where the stalks are young or stunted for lack of proper fer tilizer. the prospect for an average yield without rain in very short time is extremely doubtful
 Corn Tn the sections that have had no rain for several weeks, shows up distressingly poor, especially upland corn that has not been heavily fer tilized with nitrate of soda. Corn that was planted late in the dry sec tons seemingly stands no show at all but it is believed that rain, even in the next few days. will bring about wonderful change.
 Gardens are drying up and without rain shortly, little hope for the forth coming of young beans and other vegetables of late planting, Is enter talned.
