panels of gold, which shine gloriously in the sun and can be seen for miles. The golden panels mark an entirely new use of terra cotta. It is a we'll known fact that in a certain slant-light gold loses it's luster. In the Union Central Building this difficulty is over come by an undulating surface; the face of every gold terra cotta tile Is irregular, so that some part Of it, no matter from what direction the light comes, will always shine brilliantly.
 Terra cotta is absolutely freproof and is permanently durable. With the exception of hard burnt brick, terra cotta is less affected by fire than any other material. Another property of glazed terra cotta is that the hard surface is impervious. All that a glazed terra cotta surface needs to re- move any accumulation of soot or dirt

Cincinnati. Ohio, (SpeciaD The 1 Site of the city of Cincinnati was orig inally covered with an extensive sys- tenn of circumvallations and molrde Almost the entire area now occupied by the city was utilized by the mysteri- ous builders, in the construction of em- bankments and tumuli, built upon, the most accurate geometrical principles, and evincing keen military foresight.
 Nearly every one of the leading classes of mound builders was repre- sented. The chief work was probably sacred enclosure, known originally as the Brighton Hill Mound, upon which has now been erected the mag nificent new building of the Union Central Life Insurance Co.,, which has nati about which one now hears so much
 
 years has proudly claimed the title of the Queen City of the West" is now celebrating the completion of this new building, rising 535 feet from the base ment to the top of the lantern, or 495 feet above the sidewalk of the street upon which it fronts. It is the most conspicuous landmark for miles around and is the first object seen by the traveller entering the city. From whatever direction he comes he sees this white palace towering hun- dreds of feet above the other surround ing buildings, like an everlasting monu ment to the progressiveness of a great city. It is 34 stories in height, or, in cluding four stories be4ew the side walk, -3S stories in all. To give an idea of the immensty of this building compare with it other skyscrapers which are considered the largest in the world:
 L. c. Smith Bldg, Seattle. .465 feet high The Union Central Bldg,
 Cincinnati .495 feet high Bankers Trust Bldg,
 New York ...540 feet high Singer Bldg, New York ... .612 feet high Metropolitan Tower,
 New York 700 feet high Noolworth Bldg, New York 75o feet high
 As work of art the Union Central Building rivals the European cathe of proportions combine with it's bril- liant coloring to produce a building which is a pleasure to the eye and one which commands universal admira- Sdon and approval. Credit for this is due to the President of the Company, Jesse R. Clark, and to the Asso- .ciated Architects, Mr Cass Gilbert, of New York and Messrs. Garber and Woodward, of Cincinnati.
 This building is a fitting successor to the other famous buildings which formerly occupied the same site, namely, the old postoffice of Corinthian architecture and the old Chamber of Commerce Building in the Romanesque style The Union Central Building is . reproduction of the Italian Renais- sance and yet it is well adapted to the needs of modern office building. The exterior of the building, up to the top of the fourth story, is of white Vermont marble with heavy rustica- tions. Above this, the surface is of terra cotta. the basic color being dull cream, varying in tone.

Il is not entirely out of the question
Old breeders and those who have had
experience in the showroom matters
feel that they have been quite sue
cessful in holding a local show as
above indicated if they can pay small
premiums, pay hall rent, pay the
Judge and come out without being in
debt. In fact, many go as far as to
agree to give $40 each to meet any
deficiency that might arise, and. feel
that they have made a good invest
ment if it does not cost them more
than that amount. The question very
naturally arises Where does the
profit come in? The breeders Of ex-

points of each and why pure bred
poultry will pay them so much better
than "dunghills" The chances are
that the next year you will have a
much larger exhibit at less expense
in proportion. Six or eight good work
ing, e-awake breeders can hold
show better than rs careless ones
each of whom expects to have some
one else to do the work. The poul-
