MILK MARKETING
 PLAN DEVELOPING.
Refrigeration, BottIing and Transfer Plant Looms
 Brighter Each Day

With general plans perfected for a milk pool which will include about 1000 cows, officials of the dairymen's association are now actively engaged in signing up individual dairymen. Letters arc being sent out to all dairy farmers urging them to unite in the cooperative plan whereby 1t Is estimated that they will be saved thousands of dollars annually.
 When all the members possible have been secured for the pool, work will begin to equip the central plant to which all members of the pool will bring their milk. This plant will include modern bottling ma chine, refrigeration plant. washing machine and other equipment.
 The dairymen turning in his milk to the plant will receive credit &C., cording to quantity and grade. The milk will then be distributed prompt ly over the city. Instead of three or four dairymen working the same route. one truck from the central plant will cover the same territory.
 The object right now is to sign up as many dairymen as possible" said J. L. Lille. county agricultural agent in charge of dairymen. "So far we have found a ready re- sponse. Dairymen are quick to rec ognize the value of the pool which will permit them to remain at home more and build up their herds rather than spend so much time selling and delivering.'

NEW AUDITORIUM
 PLANS INVITED BY
 CITY COMMISSION
Architects Admit Failure to Build Suitable Structure With Available
 Funds

Agitation which has been burden to the present and the preceding city commission over the proposed muni- cipRl auditorium will be brought to a deciding point Tuesday when bids will be invited for 2 seating ca pacity to accommodate 5000 per sons, following announcement from D. E. McLendon, president of the city commission yesterday.
 Announcement of the decision to accept from any architect other than the six who have conferred with the commission for the past six months came with the decision of the archi- tects that an auditorium with ca pacity of 5000 could not be met with funds on hand and fully equip the building. Equipment alone Is esti- mated to cost more than $30,0o0
 A solution to the building prob lem, it is thought has been reached by the commission with the sugges- ton from q local arcaitect that he would build an auditorium seating 5000 with the funds now on hand and effect saving of SS3,000 to the city provided the city did its own material contracting and erected the building by a special superintendent under direction of the architect whose name Is withheld by the com mlSS1On.
 Another architect, suggesting the cost plus system guarantees to build a 7,500 capacity structure with the same saving to the city as the first proposal, both of the latter es- inmates calling for full equipment.
 Both offers were viewed with pleasure by the commission which
 brought forth the announcement of the intention to invite bids and from the best and lowest to award contract for construction of the au- ditorium.
 The six architects, under the con- tract by the preceding commission, are, 1t is said. required to submit plans which have met with the ap- proval of the commission before any fees are payable under the agreement and as no such plans have yet been accepted, officials are of the opin- ion that others should be invited to submit plans.

NO SILVER LINING IN
 TRADE CONDITIONS
Tells Travellers Bonds and Currency Issue Will Not
 Help Depression

We have nothing to expect in the immediate future for the betterment of trade conditions" declared Henry Upsom Sims speaking before the Travellers club at their weekly luncheon at the Hiilman hotel.
 Mir. Sims pointed out as the prin- oipal reason for the present busi- ness depression, the stricken condi- ton of Europe and the shutting off of Americas trade to a great ex- tent in that direction.
 South America offers no quick gateway for marketing our surplus goods other than that we have all ready explored" said Mir. Sims.
 flood of paper money and float ing of bonds will not aid the de- pression, was the opinion expressed by Mir. Sims who related the efforts made succeeding the Civil war to relieve the crisis by floating great amount of paper money.
 "Too much money in circulation will play no part in restoring things to normalcy." MT. Sims said
 Prior to tho address of Mir. Sims. reports from the various committees on the annual T. P. A.-U. T. c. ball game was made. The game will be played on August 12 for the benefit of the tubercular patients of Jeff ferson county.
 Progress was reported in the or ganization of the teams, although several weeks of hard practice Is ex- pected to put the team in flashy con- dition when they take the field at Rickwood to do battle in their time honored manner of tenacity, leaders of the two teams say.
