ELEVEN SELLERS OF
"OLEO" REPORTED
Lunch Room Keepers Plead
Ignorance of LaW-District
Attorney Has Cases.

Proprietors of eleven Washington
lunchrooms are to be hailed into the
Police Court for alleged violation OF
the District pure food law. charged
with serving oleomargarine for butter.
If the recommendations of food inspec-
tors made to the District Health De-
partment are carried out. Several OF
these cases. II became known this art
ernoon, have been referred to the DIS
trict attorneys office.
Prior to this action, hearings were
given the proprietors by officials OF
the Health Department. Several OF
item. it was stated. frankly acknoWi-
edged that they have served oleomar-
sarlne to their patrons as butter, not
knowing it was in violation of the law.
The position of the department is. now
ever. that It cannot accept plea OF
ignorance of the law as an excuse.
1t was said today by an official or
the Health Department that no III ef-
fects are felt by the average consumer
from the use of oieomargarine. There
is no law against its sale II the consul
mer is not deceived or the oleomar-
"a rine misbranded. Lunchroom owners
who specify "oleo'' or "butterine on
their menu cards are safe from prose-
Cution, but those who do not are liable
to a fine of 500 for the first offense
and a fine of 500 or years imprisont
ment for each subsequent offense.

LOCAL REAL ESTATE is
VERY FINE INVESTMENT

That the retail district is bound to spread
out and build up goes without saying,
as already retail merchants are beginning
to feel the need of larger quarters to meet
their rapidly growing wants. 1t is safe
to say that any property in the central
part of the city will give "a good return
on the investment if improved or held
for few years.
Birmingham already has pay roll of
81 100000 per week and with the compile
ton of the wire plant at Fairfield this
will be largely augmented. The number
of inquiries that are received almost daily
for factory sites shows that the influx of
manufacturers has not ceased. There are
two influences at work that will mean
much to the future of the district First
The Alabama Power company has in
course of construction a hydro electric
plant that will furnish over 100 600 horse
power daily that will be available to the
industries of birmingham. This power
will be furnished at a very much reduced
rate and will prove a great factor in
inducing manufactures to locate here.
Second, the Tidewater road is now build
ing to Tuscaloosa where it will connect
with barge line that will give the ship
pers OF this district an outlet to tide
water. This will bring a relief in freight
rates and give to Birmingham a water
rate on freight. These two undertakings
are the most important improvements to
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-06-18

Real estate Is the nearest possible in
Nestment that offers permanency of value
and unless the property is badly located
or is inflated in value the purchaser
stands little or no chance to lose Prop"
erty in Birmingham has increased in
value with the growth Of the city but
the increase has been healthy. due to the
fact that the city's growth has been of a
phenomenal and permanent nature.
The Birmingham district is destined to
be one of the greatest industrial centers
In the United States. Well advised real
estate men put the population of the
district at 100000 at the next census.
Whether or no these figures are excess
sive the fact remains that the city is
growing steadily and the growth of the
district from a manufacturing standpoint
Is also steady. The basis of the growth
of the district is its natural advantages.
The deposits of iron and coal within a
radius of 20 miles of Birmingham are
sufficient to last for several hundred
years and the saving of freight on the
fuel and ore alone offer inducements that
few cities in the world can match. City
property at present is being held at
what some authorities consider a high
price, but tho steady demand for central
property seems to refute this contention.

the Birmingham district and will have
the greatest effect on the immediate
growth of the industries now located
here.
This all bespeaks progress and where
there is progress real estate never drops
in value. The demand for factory sites

, erty central property will increase In
value in like ratio.
The Birmingham district lies in val
ley about 20 miles In length. This val
ley Is comparatively level. the natural
tendency is to go along the lines of least
resistance and 1t is only a short course

will have a decided influence on the up
ward value Of suburban property. Fac
tory employees have to have shelter and
the natural tendency is to live as close
to the place of employment as possible.
Already as fast as new additions are
added to the city they are built up and

 Chairs u"" an Irullllr,i taste. For many centuries men @ut along wit hout them. In Africa he na- lives squat for hours in a posi- ton which would give an .Aneri- can athlrt" seven varieties of cramps. In Japan the people knecl and sit on their heels. The Turk sits cross-lcgged on rug, and the ancient Roman. when Siuffing himself with costly foods. lay on a marble bench and prop ped himself on one elbow. All this proves that man can get used [" most anything if he tries. Doubtless tn" first people who used chairs rnuId only sit in them for a few minutes at a time without getting shooting pains on the inside of their knees.
 Chairs are a great necessity in American and European homes, and although some slight effort has been made. in society. to cdu- cate people to the buffet lunch and the stand-up reception, man finds lit very difficult to exist for more than an hour without making an inverted figure [ of himself. as Ssisted by the four legs of chair The only people who have no use for chairs are the housewife with four children and tha s6-a-werk sales girl. The only use a busy wife has for chair is to dust 1t in the morning. while if the own er of a great store were to find sales girl sitting in chair dur ; ing business hours. he would have her arrested for treason.
 Chairs enable a man to com- pose his thoughts and curve his backbone comfortably over his work. But they can be used to ex- cess. Many a man buys a S2O0 desk and a S60 swivel chair, with comfortable. arms. and then fills the latter until liver and kidney trouble carries him off amid the woe of his family and bankers. On the other hand, many man considers himself born with the mission of filling any old chair which happens to be empty. These men live from chair to chair and also from hand to mouth, while the vineyard calls in vain for workers, and their wives cannot earn much money, because they have to deliver the washings themselves.
