MoNTGoMERY'S STOCK SHOW

Twice as many entries have already been made for the second annual fat stock show to be held in Montgomery this year as were entered last year, and the premium list is considerably greater than last year. There will be premiums for boys and girls clubs as we'll as for the more ambitious dis plays of owners of large herds. The management of the coming show de- clares that it is not to be inferior to the time-honored shows held yearly at Louisville and Nashville. Alabamians are prepared to accept this statement from their own knowledge of the re- markable progress that has been made in the beef cattle industry in Alabama. They have seen at their fairs during the past few years growing proof of what has been and is being done for improvement of the beef as we'll as dairy herds of the state. They have seen the specimen cows, heifers and bulls that have been raised in Ala bama.
 It is well to have these shows to teach people more and more about their state and they also serve as stim- ulus to other men to engage in an in- dustry that has proved success. The cattle industry is second to none in placing the Black Belt back on its feet and making it again one of the richest farming sections in the coun- try. There are more cattle in Wilcox county than in any other county in the state. That purebred beef cattle thrive in Alabama and that they are raised here at less cost than in the West and North has been more than established. Alabama should be and eventually will be one of the greatest producers of beef cattle in the coun- try.

business is not valid, provided the reg ulations are conceived in the full light of scientific knowledge and suc- cessful application elsewhere. The public health is the controlling situa- ton, and no dairyman can be permit ted to continue to sell milk known to be potential source of danger, or produced under conditions certain to taint the product.
 On the other hand, progressive dairymen have discovered that sani- tary plants and proper handling of the milk are profitable and not a hardship. A modern, sanitary dairy policy is as necessary to the welfare of the dairy business as it is to the conservation of the public health No one who has ever run a sanitary dairy would voluntarily revert to the old, insanitary method. Instead of fighting regulations designed to im- prove the quality of their product, dairymen should welcome such a re- gime and cooperate with it. The result would be of benefit to all con- cerned

President Harding, In one of his western speeches, referred to the "ever- mounting" cost of state and municipal governments.
 And yet it Is easy of demon stration that the federal govern ment imposes a greater burden on county and municipal governments combined.
 There can be no question but that American people pay bounti- fully for the privilege of having officials make their laws and put them into operation.
 W. N. Doak, vice president of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, In public statement, cited these figures:
 Cost of maintaining federal gov ernment $4,666,671,954.
 Cost of maintaining AS state governments, $1,00S,540,232.
 Cost of maintaining 253 govern ments in cities of more than 30,000 inhabitants, $1,6SS,296,052.
 Cost of maintaining governments in all towns and cities of from 2,5oO to 3O,Ooo population, $481,- 2S7.O59.
 Cost of maintaining governments in 12,905 incorporated communities of less than 2,500 inhabitants, $123,147.6S7.
 Cost of maintaining county gov ernments in the 4S states, s592,- O6S,972.
 Total cost of government, 1921. ,46O,011,5S7.
 MT. Doak was arguing against federal control. management or op- eration of the railroads of the country. The enormous cost of government, he contended. would be greatly increased were 100000 railroad employees added to the federal pay rolls.
 In that event, he continued, the number of employees would be 100000, with probable total dependency on governmental mu- nlficence of 20,0O0,000, or for each five people in the United States. one would be an adjunct of the government.
 Does railroad labor believe in federal ownership control or oper- ation?" asks MT. Doak.
 My answer Is, No None of these Is desirable, and resort to neither should be had unless hope could be lodged in no other method"

THE FIRST CITY MANAGER

Announcement that OnafIeS F.. Ash burner, city manager of Norfolk, Vir- ginia, has accepted an offer from Stockton, California, of similar po- sition at salary of twenty thousand dollars year is interesting, not only because the people of a smaller city are willing to pay large salary to put their municipal affairs on a busi- ness basis, but as an evidence of the growing popularity of the mana ger system. Mr. Ashburner was the manager of the first American city to adopt the plan. It was Staunton, Virginia, with a population at that time of about ten thousand. While Dayton, Ohio, was the first city of considerable size to adopt the mana ger system, Staunton had been oper- ating under the plan for some time previously.
 To give some idea of how com pletely the city manager plan can be divorced from politics, it may be men toned that Mr. Ashburner, a level headed business man and experienced engineer, was an Englishman when he became manager of Staunton. > The city owned and operated the light and water systems, which were rundown and losing money. The manager re- habili Ia ted them and put them on a paying basis, bailding up surplus in the treasury after reducing the rates. He constructed paving at about sixty per cent. of what the al dermanic administration had been pay ing, made large Improvements in streets and other public projects and, in short, operated the city on busi ness basis. His salary was wise in- vestment, because he earned several times the amount for the taxpayers. Springfield, Ohio, much larger city, recognized his worth and offered a large advance in salary. Thence he went to Norfolk at another large in crease. His salary there was ad- vanced on his record of economy, and now he, goes to Stockton at still higher pay.
 It may seem surprising to some that city the size of Stockton should pay twenty thousand dollars year for manager. Yet if he drives poli- tics from the administration of the city and puts it on a business basis, as he did in the other places he has served, he will affect a saving for greater than his salary. The substi- tuition of business administration for political pull will be a public benefit that is cheap at the city managers salary. Getting the business man to interest himself in municipal affairs, as the manager plan has tendency to do, is a large asset to any city. Much depends on the man holding the managers job. If he successfully fights the politicians, he will make a record worth to the city far more than it costs. Furthermore, the cities served have not, through the attendant economies, suffered deprivation of any public facilities or conveniences, but rather have been supplied with them more liberally than before.

Dreams of the Vessel of Blood

DTeiAIhS Ol thC esScI ol DtOO0
 An experience in the hospital awaits the woman who dreams of a vessel filled with blood.
 You may remember that I have given you various interpretations of visions connected with blood and bleeding, but at no time have I mentioned a bowl or other ves sel filled with blood, and 1t Is to this particular dream that I will devote my attention today. The vision most ordinarily foreshad- ows an operation of some sort. This may be an unpleasant thing to know. but it has a great re- deeming feature; the woman who dreams thus may rest assured that she will come through much healthier and stronger than she has been in years. This interpre- tation refers most particularly to seeing such a vessel stand upon 8 chair or table or on the floor.
 If the dreamer holds the ves- sel herself, a relative will be ta- ken to the hospital. If 1t is held by another person, either relative, friend or stranger, then an ac- quaintance will be taken i'll and the only connection the dreamer will have with the incident will be her frequent calls upon the patient.
 In general way, this dream is classed among those which will materialize inside of a year. Some interpreters claim that If it appears to be summer when the vision visits you. the incl dent itself will develop in the winter; and if it seems to be win ter, trip to the hospital will be made during the warm weather.

large part of the matter selected for treatment was too narrowly restricted in its interest. Another mistake was the devotion of so much space to per somal characteristics and achieve merts. A magazine to succeed must have a widely distributed circulation. Hence the importance of scope that includes variety and matters of gen. eral interest. "The Southern Literary Magazine" enters the field at a seem- ingly favorable time and under encour- aging circumstances. It is hoped it will be successful medium through which much literary talent of promise may be developed, and the South's con- tribution to our national literature emphasized.

- b.------- UNETHICAL LAWYERS

lUItSJ
 Birmingham is in the midst of the periodical excitement usually occasioned by the discovery that not only some attorneys indulge "unethical practices" but that that part of the ethics of the le- gal profession which declares am bulance chasing is unethical has been a dead letter in the Bir- mingham bar for many years" Judge Fleetwood Rice of Tusca- loosa made that statement be- fore an investigation committee from the county court of Jeffer- son county and as result the bar association is going to get busy" again to see what can be done about 1t. It Is either ethical or it is not, to solicit business Ambulance chasing" as it Is called. It is either demoralizing and a disgrace to the profession, or 1t is honorable and ought to be authorized in the rules of practice. The organized profess sion ought to say plainly and un- equivocally which 1t Is. ethical or unethical, and then see that the rule is enforced. The profession is losing caste and public confi- dence under the present lackadai- sical method e er&1rcing a fee bss 1uss."

WANT SANITARY MILK

Several municipalities in Alabama have come to realize the importance of a pure milk supply in maintaining the public health. Montgomery, Tus- caloosa and Gadsden have recently di- rected their attention to this subject and have prepared ordinances far more stringent than those generally in{ force, except in Mobile and Bir- mihgham. Many dairymen protest the regulations as imposing an unjust burden and expense upon them, but public sentiment usually upholds the municipalities in their efforts to pre- vent the illness usually traceable to impure or unprotected milk. The ar gument of the dairymen that proposed regulations will drive them out Af
