OLD-TIME DISTILLERY
One Relic of the Past Is
Still Busy Producing
Com Liquor in
Alabama
Alabama has one thing no other state has—
that is the only corn whiskey distillery of the
old type so prevalent a few decades ago. In
this case the seeming lack of progress is
real progress, for by the old method the dis
tiller got only two and a half gallons of liquor
from a bughel of torn, and it was considered
to be a generally healthful and palatable bever-
• age. ‘X
Hy the newer modern method the distillers
act? what is knowu as u cooker to their equip
ment, and boil out the last drop of juice from
the corn, getting as much ns five gallons to
the bushel. But the quality Is said not to be
as good.
This old-time distillery is busy every day
turning out corn liquor for people who prefer
the old-time article.
“Yes,” said Mr. Moore, proprietor of this
old plant at Girard, Ala., "we are satisfied
to do it In the old-fashioned way, because we
turn out so much better article. No, we charge
no more than the others.
“Oh, yes,” w<‘ fill mail orders and pay the
express, too. Of course, unless a man really
appreciated an old-time superior corn liquor,
we don’t care for his trade, for we sell about ail
we can make.
“However, anybody that wants to try some
of our Good Stuff Corn Liquor can send $H.OO
for 4 honest quarts. Address ‘Aloore’s Distil
lers Bus. GireriL Ala.’ ”—tAdvt.)
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 20—A
noble address was delivered this neon
by Senator Hoke Smith before the Na
tional Conservation congress, which is
in session in Washington. The senator
addressed himself to the qonservation of
the soil of the councry, through farm
demonstration work, and urged the
broadest consideration of problems per
taining to agricultural production and
to rural life.
Senator Smith’s speech held the close
attention of the delegates to the con
gress and many of his statements were
greeted with applause. He first laid
down the broad proposition that “our
greatest national assets are farm lands
and the men who cultivate them,” and
declared that they have received very
little consideration from the national
government.
COULD CLOTHE THE WORLD.
"The soil of the United States prop
erly cultivated Could furnish the raw
material to clothe the people of the
world and almost to feed them,” said
Senator Smith. “But proper direction
has not been given to placing before
the people accurate and scientific in
formation as to plant foods and soil
preservation; as to seed selections and
~t?rop rotation; as to the many things
which have been and can be accurately
ascertained through the investigating
bureaus of the agricultural department
and through the* *work of the agricultur
al colleges and exDeriment stations.
“The national government has spem
four thousand, five hundred million of
dollars for pensions. It has spent a hun
dred million to promote the improvement
of the soil and for the betterment of ru
ral life. In 1912 four hundred and forty
million went to the war, navy and pen
sion departments, while Hbout twenty
millions were spent In the interest of
agriculture.
BACKBONE OF EXISTENCE.
‘Farm products In the United States
are the very backbone of our national
economic existence. Take two crops
alone, the great staple for food, both oi
man and animals, is corn. We produce tt
crop worth one billion six hundred mill
ion dollars annually- The people of tne
world are to be clothed by the use or
lint cotton. We produce a crop worth
eight hundred and fifty million dollars
annually and yet the variations in the
quantity produced per acre, even thougu
the acre is naturally of the same char
acter, demonstrates the fact that when
the highest degree c skill is applied our
corn crop could easily be doubled and
bring to the country over a billion and
a half of foreign gold annually. Our cot
ton crop could be produced on one-half
the acreage and leave the balance for
over variety of agricultural products
which the human race requires Our tax
ing system has been used to foster man
ufacturing industries, while the price oi
the products of the farm have been reg
ulated largely by foreign markets into
which our surplus crops have gone.” y
TO INCREASE PRODUCTION.
Senator Smith thep urged the broadest
consideration of those problems which
pertuin to agricultural production and to
rural life. He pointed out that there
were practical ways by which both
could be vastly improved, relieving the
necessity for the constant cry “back to
the farm.”
For increasing the net product, de
creasing the cost of production, and les
sening the tendency toward large owner
ships and increasing the opportunity for
tenant^ to become land owners, he
named five.
First, co-operative demonstration
work conducted by the state colleges of
agriculture and experiment stations and
national department of agriculture, fur
nishing trained demonstrators In every
county in every state of the union to
put in practice in co-operation with the
farmer all the scientific trusts that have
been or can be discovered.
Second, the complete development of
the market division in the agricultural
department to teach the best modes of
preparation for and marketing of crops,
and to bring the consumer and producer
closer, together.
Third, an efficient parcel post.
Fourth, improvement of country roads.
Fifth, the creation of organizations
co-operating with the farmer to facili
tate the purchase of lands actually to
be used by individual farmers with
plans for annual payments upon loans
made by which the annual payments
would cover not only the interest, but
the principal and result in actual own
ership of farms by the largest possible
number of individuals.
Senator Smith called attention to the
fact that already the market division
had been created and properly sustained
in a few years work would be of al
most inestimable value. He commended
the parcel post as improved by the re
cent orders of the postmaster general.
He stated that he believed the na
tional government would soon show a
much deeper interest in road building
and that the subject of facilitating the
acquirement of lands by the small farm
er would be considered in the near fu
ture, and he hoped for valuable results*
COLUMBUS FAIR OPENS
WITH LARGE ATTENDANCE
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
COLUMBUS, Ga., Nov. 20.—The Co
lumbus Fair, Poultry show and Corn
exposition was formally opened for the
week yesterday under most flattering
auspices and splendid weather condi
tions, with a large attendance from
many sections of Georgia and Alabama.
The big show is being given under the
direction of the Columbus Poultry as
sociation, with C. R. Medley as presi
dent and, John S. Jenkins secretary.
There are numerous daily features, in
cluding horse racing, motorcycle racing,
ostrich racing, the State fair midway
and Gentry’s Dog and Pony show.
Friday is to be Governor’s day. Gov
ernor Slaton Is scheduled to deliver an
address and the public schools of the
city will turnout to have a part in the
exercises.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20.—Dan
I O'Leary, seventy, recently hiked into
this city from Portland, about 800
ruiles.
Since 1874 O'Leary has walked 101,-
857 miles—“and 1 still have more gaso
line in my tank,” chuckled the veteran
pedestrian.
“I would like to walk any man of
my age in the woild,” challenges
O’Leary. “Weston preferred. For the
last forty years on my birthday I have
been walking as many miles as I am
years od This little trip from Port
land was only an exercise gallop. It
was beautiful all the way—roads per
fect—weather elegant. I figured it
would take sixteen days, but I came in
nineteen hours ahead of this. First five
days I averaged sixty-three miles per.
Then I dropped down to fifty-three,
which was good going itself.”
In 1876 in a hall here Dan O’Leary
walked 500 miles in six days. Later the
same year he defeated Henry Schmehl
in a six-day contest here for $2,000 a
side.
After that he walked all over the
world, England, France, Canada and
Australia. He defeated Weston three
times. In London in 1880, in a six-day
match he beat Weston twenty-seven
miles, creating so much excitement that
parliament adjourned to watch the con
test.
His last strenuous match was at Cin
cinnati in 1907 when he walked 1,000
miles in 1,000 hours, a remarkable feat
for a man of any age.
O’Leary would walk a mile then rest
the rest of the hour and walk another
mile and so on until he had done the
thousand.
“I always keep my feet in first-class
condition,” said Dan. “By using sand
paper I file off any growth, and my feet
are soft and smooth. I file my toe nails j

HAWAIIAN FISHING LAW
(By Associated Prosa.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—-Eight Jap
anese living in Hawaii have brought
to the supreme court a case to test
the constitutionality of Hawaiian fish
ing laws, prohibiting the catching of
certain fish with seins.
The Japanese allege congress re
served to itself the right to regulate
the taking of seafish within the terri
torial limits of Hawaii and that the
territorial government is without pow
er to pass such regulations. The
Hawaiian supreme court held that the
loc-1 government could act until con
gress enacted regulations.
WILSON WANTS CONGRESS
TO KEEP ON WORKING
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—At the

about an adjournment of congress by
any of the leaders, and that the presi
dent was opposed to an adjournment,
as he wished continuous consideration

CONGRESS MUDDLED OVER
ELECTION OF SENATORS
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—The ap
pointment of Frank P. Glass as senator
from Alabama confronts the senate with
a double phase of the direct election
muddle, as Blair Lee, recently elected in
Maryland, was chosen at an election au
thorized by an act of the legislature
passed before the direct election amend
ment to the constitution was adopted.
The senate steering committee has tak
en up the question of emergency legis
lation to provide machinery for the di
rect election of senators.
A settlement of the Alabama case in
favor of Mr. Glass, according to many
senators, would at once be antagonis
tic to the claims of Senator-elect Lee, of
Maryland.
“Mr. Lee comes wijth the indorsement
of a public election,” said Senator Vard-
>aman, a member of the senate commit
tee on privileges and elections. “The
spirit, if not the letter of the Pw, has
been complied with.”
STRIKE OF 350 MAY ROB
150,000 OF THEIR JOBS
(By Associated Press.)
NEW YORK, Nov. 20.—One hundred
and fifty thousand clothing workers in
New York City face idleness within
forty-eight hours because of the strike
of a single union of 350 men.
The striking organization is the
cloth examiners and spongers’ union.
Every yard of cloth converted into
clothing in New Y r ork passes through
Its hands. The factories are now in the
midst of the busy season, and it is said
that the supply of cloth on hand is
scant. The strikers demand an increase
of wages, averaging 15 per cent and a
reduction, of 10 per cent in working
hours. They rejected all offers to com
promise.

Doctors Said He Had Dropsy.
Some time ago I had an attack of
grippe, which finally settled in my kid-
nejrg and bladder. I doctored with the
doctors, and they claimed I had dropsy.
I tried other remedies and got no relief
from any of them. My condition was
such that I was unable to work for
about two months, and the annoying
symptoms caused me a great deal of
trouble and pain. I was hardly able to
turn over in bed. Seeing one of your
Almanacs, I decided to give Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp—Root a trial, and after taking
several bottles was able to resume my
work again. I cannot say too much in
praise of your Swamp-Root, as the re
sults in my case were truly wonderful.

OMAaaA, Neb., Nov. 20.—Josephus
Daniels, secretary of the navy, was a
guest of honor today at a luncheon giv
en by the Omaha Commercial club, and
delivered an address devoted largely to
the history of the great region west of
the Mississippi.
Mr. Daniels reverted to the fact that
soon after the cession of Louisiana to
the United States by France, war broke
out between the latter nation and Eng
land. He expressed the thought that
had not this territory been acquired by
the United States it would have been
promptly seized by Great Britain and
might today have been a part of Canada.
The several attempts made by Presi
dent Jefferson to explore the territory
acquired was that he recognized the
value of early development of its vast
resources.
