WOMAN SENATOR
 GIVEN PRIVILEGES
Mrs. Felton May Never Take Office, But She Is Allowed
 Secretary

Washington. October 1B-(spsciai} Senator Curtis of Kansas, chairman of the rules committee of the Senate, decided today that while in all prob ability, Mrs W. H. Felton would never take her seat as Senator from Georgia, she was entitled to score .tsrial assistance, franking privileges and an office in the Senate office building.
 The decision was reached following the designation by MrA Felton of Miss Sarah Orr of Dublin. Ga. as her secretary. Miss Orr served in similar capacity to the late Senator Wat son.
 Senator Curtis intimated also that the Senate would agree to pay the funeral expenses of the late Senator Watson in full. Because no member of the immediate family of Senator Watson was in Washington when he died, the ergeant-at-arms did not deem 1t necessary to charter pri- the remains and the office force of the deceased
 He thought that a baggage ear, under the circumstances, would suf- flee. Mrs. A. L. Dytle, 1t Is satd- chartered a private car at her ex- pense. There is little doubt but that the Senate will pay all expenses.
 The impr ession is that the incident resulted from a bit of stupidity on the part of the sergeant-at-arms.

Lack Of Suitable Quarters
 Defers Location Here of
 State Branch Laboratory

have not yet been made for the open ing of the laboratory at Birming- ham," safd pr. Welch. "The state health department Is very anxious to place 1t at Birmingham at once in order that the benefit may beiobtaned by physicians of Jefferson county and that section of Alabama. The city has kindly consented to the use of quarters in the city hall, but 1t will be necessary to make alterations and renovations which will cost ap- proximately $3,00o. It will not be possible to establish the laboratory until these changes are made. It is better not to have a laboratory than to have one which cannot do the work which should be done.
 'I trust that some arrangements may be worked out without delay whereby local authorities will pro- vide the funds necessary for the ai- terations and renovation. As soon as this Is done the state will establish the laboratory as provided by the in- ternational health board. which is furnishing the funds to the state as portion of It's contribution to the campaign for the protection of the health of the people of Alabama"

COTTON PICKING
 IS ALMOST OVER
Short Crop Seen by Hooton. Farmers Selling and Pay
 ing Debts

Montgomery. October 15.-(speoiaL) Cotton gathering season has prao- ticalIy ended in south and middle Alabama and with good weather the north Alabama crop will be gathered during the next two weeks, accord ing to the weekly summary of mar ket conditions issued today by F. O. Hooton. supervisor of the division of markets of the state agricultural de- partment. Cotton is going upon the market in large quantities, which ia an indication that the farmers arc anxious to llquidate their indebted ness. Mir. Hooton said 1t now ap- pears that the supply of cotton will be 2,000,000 bales short of the ordi- nary consumption.
 The cotton seed market has been very active during the week and the price has advanced S5 a ton. Mills are now offering s40 ton delivered and are exchanging cotton seed meal for cotton seed on ton for ton basis.
 Peanut Crop short
 The peanut market has opened in south Alabama with the price of Spanish nuts ranging from $70 to S7b a ton. Mir. Hooton said if the prioe of peanut oil advances with cotton seed oil there Is promise of an active and stronger market. Recent esti- mates are that the states corn crop will fall short 1b,300,00o bushels as compared with last year and It's pea nut crop will be short about 2,S7O,o00 bushels. Mir. Hooton said this in- formation indicates shortage of food crops, that Alabama will be forced to buy corn to make another crop and that higher priced feed stuffs will result.
 The states syrup production will be shorter, also. Government reports indicate a shortage of 2.5o0.o00 gal Ions in sugar cane syrup and 100000 gallons in sorghum. The shortage will bring better prices for the prod ucts during the year. according to MT, Hooton's prediction.
