LARGEST ORDER
 FOR AUTO TIRES
Drennen Company Buys $34,50O Worth to Be Delivered During
 the Summer

Weather Conditions

Birmingham, April 4.-7 P. M)-The pressure continued high over the country east of the Mississippi. and generally fair weather prevailed east of the Rockies. The only rain areas during the past 2i hours are over the eastern portion of the lake region and in the Pacific northwest
 Rather cloudy weather has been general throughout the lower Mississippi valley owing to the veering of the winds to southerly quarter.
 An extensive area of low pressure over lies the western half of the country, it's center of greatest depression being over Manitoba at D. m. This is too far dis tant, to materially affect weather condi- tions in this section other than a prob able increase of cloudiness Friday.
 Temperatures have risen slightly over the country in general. Readings of so degrees or higher occurred in the south west and South Dakota, while temper atures exceeding those of nearly any gulf coast station occurred in Nebraska, the Dakotas and Manitoba, Canada.
 Conditions are favorable for rather overcast skies Friday with practically sta- tionary temperatures.

 Possess Good Health
CITY LIFE IS A BURDEN

When seen recently, Mrs. Julia A. Hill- man of Woodlawn, this city, spoke very Interestingly regarding her experience with the new tonic, "Tona Vita now be- ing introduced in Birmingham by repre- sentatives sent here for that purpose.
 Mrs. Hillman said: For a long time l have been a great sufferer from nervous indigestion and all it's peeuiarities-con- stipauon. kidney trouble, etc., and an exa tremely nervous condition. Anyone who has suffered in the least with these con- dtions will readily know just what l un- derwent l tried several different reme- dies and medicines, as well as having doc tored with several very excellent doctors, but would only be relieved q short time, then the same old troubles would return twofold. l received such wonderful re- suits from the 'Tona Vita that I have induced five other ladies to use it sue cessfully, and have also sent one bottle by express to an Alabama City, Ala, friend, who has been suffering as I suf- fered for years.'
 Mrs. Hillman's case was pure and sim ple nervous debility, which is likely to be found existing in any Birmingham fam ily," said one of the representatives sent here to introduce "'Tona Vita" this morn ins. Half of the people of Birmingham find life a burden and have little real happiness as a result of this modern plague, continued he.
 Such people, and there are lots of them, have uncertain appettes. poor di- gestion. uneasy sleep, little ambition, and they feel too tired for the simplest work most of the time. They suffer from timid- ity, have no initiative. are droopy and haven't enough good rich blood in their veins to make them capable or self re- liant. Their nerves are in such eondi- ton that they imagine themselves afflicted with various diseases at different times. The real trouble with them is nervous debility, produced by the strain Of the modern life they are forced to lead. There is little of this ailment among the peo- pie of the country, the freedom of which permits them to observe natures lml- tations.
 "rona Vita will positively remove this condition. If, it fails to prove satisfac- tory, it costs nothing, as the medicine must do the work or we won't want money for it."
 The representatives who are here intro- ducing "Tona Vita" are giving demon- strations of what the preparation will do. All day long they meet callers at the Collier Drug company, 1O9-l11 North Twentieth street, from a. m. to D. m.

NEW CREMATORY
 FOR WOODLAWN City Commissioner Proposes
 to Erect Plant KILPATRICK DESIGN
Weatherly Resolution to Be Passed at Meeting This Afternoon-Ciyic League Present Statement on
 the Garbage Question

The resolution introduced last Tuesday erect a crematory for the disposal of garbage at Woodlawn will be acted upon this afternoon at the adjourned meeting of the board of commissioners. It is un- derstood that the resolution will be passed unanimously by the board and the work of construction commenced at once. The plant will be built by the city under the direction of City Engineer Walter c. Kill patrick, who designed the city crematory now in successful operation and will be completed and ready for use inside of % days.
 The city commissioners are facing the problem that has confronted thousands of other cities in the disposal of garbage, and think they have met the difficulty in measure by the erection of the Kill patrick crematory. It is odorless and smokeless and inexpensive both in costs of construction and operation.
 Visit New Crematory
 Yesterday President Exum Judge A. O. Lane and Street Commissioner Frank Gafford visited the erematory and found it working very satisfactorily, and as a result of their investigation the city com missioners will pass the Weatherly reso- lution
 Commissioner Weatherly has given much attention to the garbage question and has investigated the conditions at Woodlawn, where the city has a dumping ground. As soon as it was demonstrated that the new crematory was a success, Mr. Weatherly prepared and introduced the resolution that will be acted upon today
 on Sixty-third street on a piece of prop erty owned by the city. The plant now in operation was erected In less than a month and with the added experience the construction of the second plant should be accomplished in less time It will be erected and in full operation long before the hot season commences.
 The Woodawn branch of the Woman s Civic league has advocated the discontin- uanoe of the dumping grounds at Wood. lawn and at a meeting held yesterday prepared the following memorial for the consideration of the board of city com missioners:
 Honorable Board of Commissioners,
 Citv of Jli ry,,i
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-04-05
Memorial Proposed

"The Woodlawn branch of Womans S Civic league begs leave to submit for your earnest consideration and imme- diate attention the following:
 Il. The principal drainage of the town has it's origin in densely popu- lated negro section, east of Sixty frs [ and between Second avenue and the Gate City car line, south. It flows in a northerly direction, across private property. to Second avenue, where it crosses Sixtieth street and takes it's course again across private property to Fifty-ninth street and First avenue Thence down First avenue to Fifty eighth street and up Fifty eighth street half block, where it again crosses private property before enter ing the park. After leaving the park 1t crosses Third avenue, north, between Fifty-siXth and Fifty-seventh streets thence through Il white and negro set tlement before joining Dry branch in the Woodlawn cemetery.
 The sanitary sewerage system has never been extended to the negro sec ton where this drainage has it's origin and the topograpy Is low and flat. The rains bring the accumulated filth from this unsanitary district down through the city and necessarily contaminates every thing with which it comes in con- tact E
 Some years ago, under it's alder manic administration Woodlawn caused the greater portion of this drainage to be diverted into Dry branch by run ming a large ditch east from Sixty second or SiXty-third streets, running parallel with Second avenue, south This ditch has through neglect gradu- ally filled up until it no longer serves it's purpose.
 '1. The city maintains extensive dumping grounds at SiXty-third street and Fifth avenue, north where the ac- cumuated rubbish and garbage, to- gether with dead chickens and some times dead animals. from East Lake Avondale and Woodlawn are assembled This place is breeding spot of great swarms of flies. mosquitoes and eX- tremely offensive odors. The pollution from this reaches over a large terri tory thickely settled with white peo- pie and a negro settlement immediately adjacent. This dumping ground Is within four blocks of the Kennedy school, which has an attendance of more than 300 children. It is within five blocks of First avenue, the main thoroughfare of the city. It Is a plague spot, menace to health and civic development. and to il and the drainage can doubtless be traced the epidemic of typhoid and malarial levers with which we have been af- nicted the past two years. The safety of our entire community demands that this nuisance te abated Immediately, and that this fostering mass of filth be removed before the approach of summer
 "On Sixty-third street and Fourth avenue, north. the city maintains d stable and a place where the eXcretia from the dry closets is dumped into the sanitary sewer The slogan of swat the fly appears to be preached by the city for practice only by it's citizens since this fly breeding place Is left unscreened and unsanitary in the extreme. We insist that this place be screened and every precaution other wise be taken to keep it sanitary. Re- spectfully submitted
