increased class rates. but it decided that Alabama will continue to use the basic rate in the Conner scheduie which has been in effect in Alabama since 1907. This was the full ac4 ceptanee of the proposal of the traf- fife bureaus and representatives of the shippers and puts Alabama in line with the tentative schedules which have been adopted by the Georgia commission.
 Had the railroads won their coH- tention, less than carload shipments would have been taken from the Conner commodity schedule and wou u have been put in separate class tar ifs. In rejecting this proposal and accepting the proposal of the traffic bureaus, the commission held in abeyanee decision regarding the commodity tariffs in oraer that ths traffic bureau may present further evidence to the commission.
 The full effect and importance ot the decision may be understood when it is said that more than 80 per cent of the commodity shipments, intra- state, in Alabama, excepting coal coke. pig iron and furnace material move in less than carload lots. Mem bers of the commission were unani nous in the decision, affirmatiN votes being cast by President A, Patterson and B. H. Cooper and $. F. Garlard. associate commissioners.

early spring is rarely effected. The fungus generally attacks the plants that are skinned or otherwise bruised or injured. When pruning plants the injury should be coated with some disinfeetant, as cold tar or tree paint. About the only thing to do now Is to cut off below the infection and dlsinfect the fresh cut.
 Q. My tomato plants set out over a month ago have never seemed to grow, but are turning yellow and drying up. What could be the trouble2 Mrs. D. R. F. D, 3.
 A. It is most likely the plants were greenhouse grown. too tall and tender. and they could not develop roots enough to sustain the surplus top growth. You might correct by frequent working, but the best plan would be to plant seed now or set out other hardy. stocky plants.
 Q, 1 am sending you curious looking tomato, several of which came up in my tomato plant bed. Could you tell me what it Is? Mrs. S., Wylam.

 A. Nonsense. It does injure the yield Let them make all the vino that they will. Try one shor trow to convince you of the folly of such advice.
 Q. It's been so wet could not save my crimson clover for hay. Most of the heads are now brown. Would 1t still do to cut for hay? C. s., Porterville, Ala.
 A. Crimson clover does not make good hay after full development of heads and should only be used when the feed Is badly needed. Il would probably be best to turn under at once for fertilizer.
 Q. Do you endanger a crop of COW peas by planting seed infested with weevil? ". A, K. F. D., opeonta. Ala

 A. This Is caused by the squash vine borer and very difficult co manage The moth lays the egg about the time the plant begins to bloom and many can be destroyed by hand.

 POWER COMPLAINTS
 CONTRACT INVALID
Local Utility Corporation Will Insist Government Is Honor Bound to Carry Out

 Washington, May 25.-(Special9- Harry M. Daugherty, Attorney Gen eral, rendered an opinion this after noon. In that opinion he agreed with the judge advocate general that from purely legal standpoint the United States was not in honor bound to observe it's contract involving the Gorgas steam plant with the Ala bama Power company. As result of this opinion, it is entirely probable that the House committee on mili- tary affairs will, by majority vote, recommend to Congress an ac- eeptance of the offer of Henry Ford.
 It is learned tonight that the Ala bama Power Company will continue to insist that the Government of the United States Is in honor bound to observe It's contract with the Alaba- ma Power Company respecting Cor gas. In view of such circumstances, it is easily dedueible that the Ala barna Power Company will instigate legal proceedings
 These legal proceedings If extended to the supreme court, which will be the case win result in litigation of at least five years duration. w. B. Mayo, Washington representative of Henry Ford, returned today from De- troit, where he interviewed Henry Ford. He refused to make himself available to newspaper correspon- dents.
 It is known that Mir. Mayo went to Detroit for the purpose of ascertain ing from Mir Ford just what ad- ditional concessions he would make in that his offer for Muscle Shoals night be accepted.
 AS to whether or not Henry Ford would agree to enter into contract with the United States for Muscle Shoals, with knowledge that such a contract would necessitate a 1itiga- tion of five years, remains to be seen.

lowed shortly by the delivery of the opinion. which was submitted without comment The opinion in effect sub stantiated the opinion already given by the acting judge advocate gen eral and made no mention of the moral obligations" General Williams and other ordnance officers declared rested upon the government.

Increase of Population in U. S.

According to DIR. Edward A. Ross,
by the year A. u. 1000, the
population of the United States
will number about 223,000,000.
Extremists are painting vivid pic
lures of our country, pointing out
that the condition of China, Japan,
and India will be rivaled here. They
predict a starving country with too
many inhabitants and too lit
tie space in which to house them
In their minds are scenes Of war,
famine and misery as a result.
On the other hand, John S. Sum-
mer. secretary of the New York So
ciety for the Suppression of Vice,
says: "Overpopulation is not a men,
ace to the peace of the world, because
there is no overpopulat ton. 1t is not
the physical fact bf population, but
the mental and spiritual condition of
people which determine the question
as menace to continued peace"

Leaking Stove Pipes

Weeping stove pipes, from the
joints Of which a tar-like liquid leaks
out, is often a difficult trouble to rem
edy. 1t is due to insufficient draft.
The smoke, moving slowly through
the pipes, condenses. and the LIQUID so
formed oozes out at the joints Of the
pipes. Sometimes having the pipes
on an incline, upward to the chimney,
will cause the smoke to pass along
more quickly. Sometimes raising the
chimney will increase the draft
Some find that little opening in the
pipe next the chimney, with sliding
cover, increases the draft up the
chimney, when open. and so causes
the smoke to pass out quickly. 1t all
comes to this-increase the draft and
the heat of the pipes, and so cause
the smoke to pass out so quickly that
it cannot cool and condense in the
pipes.

Foreign Minister Has Only Four
Hours Sleep

7CurS Sieep
The fact that the human machine
requires sleep is one OF life's TRACE
dies to George V. Tchitcherin. the
Soviet foreign affairs minister Sleep
IS also tragedy to those who have to
90 business with him.
The best hour to have an inter-
view with Tchitcherin is between
midnight and A. NJ. The only hours
he devotes to rest are between S A.
Nj. and monday. The remainder he
spends in work, with short 15-mIn-
ute to half-hour rest intervals, when
he goes to his bachelor room adjoin-
ing his Offices and lies down, possibly
to sleep for a few minutes.
His clerks have a hard time of it,
as they cannot adjust their hours to
his. They are permitted to work "a
hours at a stretch and then have lib
erty for two days
Tchitcherin always is on the lob. ex-
cept for the four hours mentioned.
He has stated that as he grows older
he hopes to eliminate these sleeping
hours. He looks WELL is round faced,
ana but for red eyelids shows no
signs OF his sleep wrestlings
Food also is a material difficulty
with which Tchtcherin battles. He
gets so absorbed in hi work that he
frequently forgets to eat. and when
reminded that he must. he takes a
few bits of bread and butter Some
times he is indsposed. and his doc
tor invariably finds that it is through
lack Of eating. When asked If he
has eaten anything Tchtcherin is I'M
able to remember
