EXPERTS SPEAK AT
 ANNUAL LIVE STOCK MEET AT AUBURN
Goode Urges Cooperative Marketing of Beef Cattle. Dr.. Cary Delivers 0pen-
 ing Address

AUBURN, Ala, Feb. 13.-fSpecialo With representatives from many sections of Alabama present the twenty-seventh annual meeting of the Alabama Live Stock association was opened here Tuesday afternoon.
 The opening and welcome address was delivered by Dr. A. c. Cary president of the association, who stressed the economic advant es of live stock on Alabama farms, and also the effect of live stock upon boys and girls.
 After mentioning the economic ad- vantages, pr. Cary said: There is no better training for boys than that of learning how to manage live stock, and this in my mind is one of the main reasons why so many of the leading men come from farms"
 Professor J. c. Grimes, secretary of the association, made very brief report following the address by pr. Cary, and at the conclusion of this report R. J. Goode, Jr, of Gaston- burg, spoke briefly but effectively on the beef cattle situation in Ala bama. MT. Goode told of the ups and downs of beef cattle during the last few years, but added that "The time to get into any live stock busi- ness is while it is at a low ebb."
 Urges Cooperation
 In summary MT. Goode placed emphasis on the fact that farmers in the various communities should grow beef cattle in a cooperative way in order to have carload ship ments, and added that they should breed good cattle, take good care of them, and sell co-operatively."
 Led by pr. Cary and officials of the agricultural college, the live stock farmers made an inspection of the agricultural experiment. station late Tuesday afternoon, and were addressed at their evening session by Dr. Spright Dowell, president of the Alabama Polytechnic insti- tute, and Dr. Frank Willis Barnett of Birmingham.
 The exercises for the second day will begin early Wednesday morn ing and close in time for those at- tending the convention to leave on the afternoon trains for home.
