OUT AT COLLEGE
Forces Make Start Upon
Buildings
ERECTION OF SMALL HOUSES
Marks The Beginning of Active Work
Upon Third DiStriCd Agricultural
COlIege--Mr. BaSSet Here.
Directs Work.

The ring of the hammer and buzz OF
the saw now awaken the echoes in the
vicinity of the Third District Agricul-
tural college in the pretty southern
suburbs of Americus. Work has actu-
ally begun, and soon the handsome
structures will rise majestically in the
heart of the forest thereabout.
Everything is now in good shape to
push forward building operations.
Mr.. J. NJ. Bassett. of Griffin, repre-
senting the Gresham Company. con-
tractors, and Mr.. ] ohm w. SILVER. who
is also alike interested, were busily
employed about the grounds yester-
day.
Already temporary Office building
has been erected and likewise a large
machine shop, with telephone service
established. These are but temporary
quarters and much needed Just now. A
road is also being graded from the col
lege grounds to the Seaboard sidetrack
recently completed there.
This will grea thy facilitate the I'M
loading of building material, which is
now arriving rapidly, carloads of Ium-
Der, brick, cement, lime and other
building supplies required.
Levels were run yesterday by Mr..
Bassett for the concrete floors of the
TWO main buildings, and a start upon
both of these will soon be made.
Everything there in building way is
progressing most favOrabIy, and the
work is going to be pushed rapidly
as the brickmasons are put upon it,
Very soon now the college grounds
will be place of interest to hundreds

WORK WfAKENS THE KIDNEYS!
DOan'S Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service For People Who Work
In Americas.

Most Americas people work every
day in some strained, unnatural posi-
tion-bending, constantly over desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars-do-
ing laborious housework lifting, reach
ing or pulling, or trying the back in a
hundred and one other ways. All these
strains tend to wear, weaken and in
jure the kidneys until they fall behind
in their work of filtering the poisons
from the blood. Doan's Kidney Pills

KILLS CATARRHAL GERMS.
Breathe HyOmel's Medicated. Air And
You viii Soon be Well.

If you have catarrh in the nose, head
or throat, with offensive breath, cough
ing, irritation of the throat, raising Of
mucous, difficulty in breathing, sneez-
ing, husky or hoarse voice, discharge
from the nose, tickling and dropping
night, begin the use of Hyomei at once.
It's healing medication breathed
through the neat pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit, will give
quick relief in all catarrhal troubles,
and its continued use will kill the
catarrhal germs, and drive them from
the system.
By using Hyomei you get in your
own home the same results as though
you lived out Of doors in the Adiron-
dacks or the Colorado mountains. The
germ killing properties of Hyomei
reach the most remote air cells of the
respiratory organs, soothing and heal
ing any irritation there may be in the
mucous membrane, and killing all ca
tarrhal germs.
Here in Americus where Hyomei has
been known and seld, there are many
who freely attest It's wonderful powers,
but the best testimony that can be of
fered in favor of Hyomei is the guar
antee. that Dodson's Drug Store gives
with every outfit they SELL money
back if it fails
The complete Hyomsl outfit costs
but S1.OO, extra bottles, if needed, soc.
making it the most economical treat
ment for catarrh as well as the only
one that is sold under guarantee to
refund the money if it fails tocure.

Already Europe has met the
timber famine and the high price
Of steel and iron by building it's
cities of concrete. The modern
parts of Milan, Berlin, Budapest
and other cities growing at a
tremendous rate are being con-
structed of concrete.
One of the finest bridges in the
United States has just been COM
pleted at great cost across the
Rock Creek ravine at the national
capital. There is not bit of iron
in the whole gigantic structure.
It was constructed al concrete
blocks, and these were made out
Of gravel gathered from the bed of
the gorge.
A new machine for the making
of these building blocks of con-
crete has just been perfected
which will enable three mea to
turn out 600 BLOCKS .. almost any
desired size ia day. a down

applies 10000 pounds pressure to
