AS large and as powerful as Is the
Lusitania, the big liners memorable
trip across the Atlantic did not create
half so much interest as did the voyage
Of the little American steamship, the
Savannah which was the first steam
vessel to bridge the great ocean. The
Savannah's trip was made in the year
1910, and was only intended as an ex-
pertinent, as she did not carry passen-
ger or a pound Of freight. From
financial viewpoint the trip was fail
ure, for, while there were several offers
to purchase the new steam vessel, none
Of them regarded as acceptable.
The Savannah's trip is historic and
was accomplished at great risk. SO
fearful were mariners generally Of the
fate Of the experiment that the COM
mander found 1t impossible to obtain
sailors in New York, and was obliged
to seek them in New London, Conn, the

commanded the Phoenix built for John
Stevens and his son, Robert Livingston
Stevens, in 1908. He took the little
Phoenix on her memorable voyage from
Sandy Hook to Cape May, the first time
a steam vessel had braved the dangers
of the ocean He also commanded the
Eagle in 1913, when that vessel made
her first voyage from New York to Bal
tlmore, and he was associated with the
owners of the New Jersey, when regu-
lar bi-weekly voyages were inaugurated
between those ports. Captain Rogers
was regarded as a person whose opin-
ions on the subject Of steam navigation
were important and valuable, and he
frequently was consulted by steamboat
owners and constructors.
The first long voyage Of the Savan-
nah was from New York to Savannah.
The trip occupied days Is hours, and
during that time the engine had been
worked 411a hours. The vessel left New
York at 10 o'clock on the morning Of
March %, 1910, and arrived at her des-
tination On April 6. at 4 o'clock In the
morning. Arrived at the southern port
the ship attracted a great deal Of at
tention, for it was known that she was
to try for the record across the At
lantic. The revenue cutter Dallas sa-
luted the ship as she entered the har-
Dor, and the bank of the river was
lined with patriotic citizens. whose en-
thusiasm found relief In shouts Of ap-

After showing her PAGES to the citi-

historic trip Is still to be seen in the
National Museum at Washington,
where there are several other relics Of
the daring Captain Rogers. When the
ship was Off the coast of, Ireland, a
British cutter, the Kite, noticed her,

Danger of using Alcoholic Mixtures of
Coal Tar Tablets.
LAYING aside all moral objections
against filling up the system with
whisky or drugs because one has a
cough or cold, the dangerous physical
effects should be sufficient to keep one
from using these strong medicines.
A thoroughly scientific way to treat
cough and cold as well as sensible
method is to breathe Hyomei through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit. The first breath OF
its healing medication relieves the irri.

The best people in Alma always keep
Hyomei in the house during the win
ter months, and at the first symptoms
of a cold or bronchial troubles, use
the remedy, and prevent serious and
lasting illness. The guarantee that
Chas. Rhodes gives with every Hymone

THE senate chamber was occupied
Thursday morning with a he airing for
delegation of forty representatives of the
travelling mems association, in support
of the two-cent fare bill, and in the after
noon the committee listened TO further
arguments in opposition from railroad
representatives, whose hearing week
ago was continued to that date. Accord
inc to the view presented by these officers
the railroad business is very unattractive
from financial point Of view, and gen
eral two-cent passenger rate would
threaten ruin. The general public IS
very skeptical about this, remembering
he constant allurements held out by the
roads during large part of the year for
people to ride at rates much lower than
two-cents mile, and in places carrying
passengers at such rates every day in the
wear. For instance, twenty-six miles fol
twenty-five cents between Detroit ant
Pontiac. where the electric cars have
shown the Grand Trunk that a oue-cen
rate is desirable. IL is like the expires
companies carrying books from here e
California at eixteeu cents for one pound
in competition with U. 5 mail; but the,

THE DAIRY BARN.
Six Ways In Which Il May Be vasti,
Improved.

Six Ways In Which II May Be Vastly
Improved.
There are six ways In which the nv
erage dairy barn can be vastly I'M
proved.
In the first place. most OF the stables
need better ventilation and light. They
need more and better kept window sur
faces and facilities for changing the air
without exposing the cows TO drafts.
In the second place. there should be
a ceiling between the floor OF the now
and the cows. In barns where hay Is
stored over the cows II Is dangerous 10
leave the defective floor without some
sort OF ceiling. The chance of fire u
much greater. and a sanitary condition
OF the stable Is almost impossible II the
dust and hay are allowed to fall
through upon the cows.
Third.-The stables should have good
floors. Cracks In the floor are breeding
places for bacteria. and they catch ana
hold an accumulation Of filth that fills
the stables with bad odors.
Tying the Cows.
Fourth.-Tying the cows can be
greatly improved upon. The old fash
toned rigid stanchion is neither com
Portable nor convenient The cows
should have a small degree of freedom
at least. This can be provided by the
newer makes OF stanchions or by a
chain or halter. The great objection to
the last two Is the difficulty of keeping
the COW clean, and right here Is the
fifth way In which the stable can be
improved Fix the cutters so that they
will keep the cow clean and at the
same time save all the manure. | have
been In barns where the platform was
so short that when the COW would liz
down she could not keep out of thu
gutter. | have been In other stables
where the gutter was simply a coupl,
OF 2 by As placed upon the stable floor
Either practice is bad The best plaI
is to fix the floor in such a way that /
} will accommodate the cows and give
them ample room for lying down com
fortably. Have the gutter about fou
inches deep and BUILT water tight. Thi
saves all the liquid manure, keeps tia
cows clean and makes it much ease
to care for the stables and the stock.
Handling the Manure.
The sixth point which comes to M.
mind at this time is an improved meth
cd In handling the manure. Throwing
IL out of the window is insanitary an'
often inconvenlent. The manure pile
. up against the barn. injuring the pain
and at the same time losing much o
its value as q fertilizer. The othe
plan of shoveling 1t into wheelbarrow
and wheeling it out and dumping 1t Il
the yard is little better. Use some kin
Of a carrier, an overhead one preferred
