Colds To Be Taken Seriously

Intelligent people relize that com
mon colds should be treated promptly.
If there sis sneezing and chilliness
with hoarseness, tickling throat and
coughing, begin promptly the use of
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound. 1t
is effective, pleasant to take, checks
cold, and stops the cough which caus-
es loss of sleep and lowers the vital
resistance. adv*

FERTILITY NOT LOST
IN FEEDING ALFALFA
Crop Draws Most Heavily on
Lime and Potash, Resembling
Clover in This Respect.

An alfalfa field will yield on an av-
erage 5000 pounds of cured hay per
acre in one season. This cured hay
will contain about $3.50 pounds of dry
matter. The number of pounds OF
each of the four most important ash
constituents, removed from an acre by
a seasons crop of alfalfa hay, as COM
pared with clover hay, is as follows:
Potash-alfalfa, 206 pounds; clover,
Sc; phosphates-alfalfa, So pounds;
clover, %; lime-alfalfa, SO pounds;
clover, 76; magnesia-alfalfa, 22
pounds; clover, IT.
Alfalfa draws most heavily on the
lime and potash, resembling clover in
this respect, but because of its heav-
Ter yield per season, a greater quantity
of these ash constituents Is removed.
II the alfalfa is fed on the farm and
the manure we'll preserved and re-
turned to the land, but little fertility
is lost. If 1t happens that the soils are
poor in these constituents, fertilizers
of lime in the form of land plaster ana
potash in the form of wood ashes can
be profitably applied
With the aid of nitrogen gathering
bacteria, alfalfa, like clover. can use
the free nitrogen Of the air, still 1t
must not be inferred that fair sup
ply of nitrogen In the soil is unneces-
sary or that the application of nitro
genous fertilizers is always wasteful.
Professor Dyer of England has shown
by careful experiments that the use
of moderate quantities Of nitrate Of
soda has been decidedly remunera-
tive"
He found that in five years, an an
nual dressing of one hundredweight of
nitrate of soda per acre gave an in
crease of nearly three tons Of green al
falfa fodder per acre per year, while
an annual dressing Of two hundred
weight per acre gave an increase OF
four and half tons Of fodder per acre
per year. From this he calculated that
there was annual profit due to nitrate
of a little more than four dollars per
acre in the first case and over six dol
lars per acre In the second case.

GOODYEAR TIRES AT
ANTE-BELLUM PRICES

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.
announce mo war prices on Goodyear
Tires" Mr.. F. A. Sieberling, president
of the Company, thus explains their
unique position.
I'VE advanced Goodyear prices, as
others did theirs, when the rubber
panic came. Almost in a day crude
rubber rose in New York from 90 cents
per pound to much over a dollar.
"The New York supply was too
small to consider. We cabled our
London people to buy up the pick of
the rubber there. BY acting quickly
and paying cash they obtained 1,500,-
600 pounds of the finest rubber.
THAT big supply of rubber is now
nearly all on the way to the Goodyear
factory in Akron. 1t constitutes th>
best of the London supply.
I'VE are using the same grade of
rubber and the same amount of it as
we always have used in these tires.
I'VE are running our factory with
three shifts of men, twenty-four hours
a day. So long as we remain in this
fortunate position on rubber, we shall
supply tire users at before-war prices
to the limit of our capacity"

is anticipated that in ten years from
now the population Of Athens, which
is 100000, will be at least half mil
lion. No vandalism. we are assured,
will be involved in this scheme. The
various temples of ancient Greece
which make Athens so attractive to
the visitor will be more easily acces-
sible.
Very delightful are these temples
and very inspiring. First in order is
the Theseion, the best-preserved edi-
flee of the whole of the ancient Greece
world. The temple has been assigned
to Theseus, to Hercules, and to other
gods. 1t was probably completed by
421 B. c. In the middle ages it was
converted into church and dedi-
Gated to st. George. In the theater
of Dionysos, wonderfully preserved
theater, the center of the dramatic art
of Greece in it's golden period, one is
struck by the frieze round the stage
reliefs of the time Of Nero.
We are struck also by the wonder
full seats that have been preserved,
particularly one here illustrated des-
tined for the priest of Dionysos.
the Olympieum, or Olympieion. Its
10 huge Corinthian columns of pentelic
marble stand out gloriously in the
sunlight. They date from the reign
Of Hadrian, and they once contained
a statue Of that monarch. In 1850 a
Turkish viceroy took one of the col
umns for mosque he was building.
The Diplyon formed the principal en-
trance of classic Athens, and one
drives past 1t on the way to Eleusis.
Here we see the ruins of the ancient
wall, and close by is the burial ground,
the principal cemetery Of ancient Ath-
ems, 1t being the custom to bury the
dead Immediately outside the town
gates. On one of the tombstones we
see bull, and there are many quaint
fragments Of ancient tombs. Some
chambers cut in the rock are de-
scribed by a medieval tradition as
the prison Of Socrates. The Stadion
has been entirely restored. 1t was
originally erected $50 B. c. 1t is in
teresting but had much better have
been left in ruins and a new Stadion
erected elsewhere. We note also the
ruins Of Eleusis. They are merely
drive from Athens and form one of
the best excursions in its immediate
neighborhood. To write adequately
of these wonderful ruins, the home of
the "Eleusinian Mysteries" would
take many columns.
