FLOW OF RIVERS.

A report recently published by the
United State geological survey states
that during the 19 years from October
l, 1894. to September 80, 1913. the
average flow of Tennessee river at it's
mouth was $4,000 cubic feet a second
is equivalent to 40,700 ,000, 900
gallons of water a day. During the
39-year period 1S75-1913 the average
flow was even greater than this. The
report gives the daily flow of Ten
nessee river at Chattanooga, Tenn,
since 1874, at Florence, Ala, stree
1895, and at Johnsonville, Tenn, since
1890. It also gives the height of the
river each day at Chattanooga since
1874, at Florence since 1872, and at
Johnsonville since 1876. The report
containing these valuable records is

( OF the governments engineers measur-
ing the amount OF waters passing IN
der the bridge. This is done by Low
ering an instrument, known as a cur
rent meter, into the waite at several
points under the bridge to determine
the speed of the water and by measuT-
ing the depths of the water at the
same points. From such information
the flow Of the river at that particular
time and height can be computed. and
when such measurements have been
made at number of different heights
the flow of the stream at any height
can be determined. Then if a record
of the height Of the river is obtained
, each day from a river gage, the flow
for each day can be computed It was

TIE BASIS OF BUSINESS

Some two years ago ]. P. Morgan
testified that to him character was the
bottom fact in business; that he trust
ed a man and dealt with him primar-
fly on that basis, says Golfers Week
ly. This aroused a great deal OF carp
ing comment, but it always seemed
plain to us that Morgan knew what
he was saying And now we find the
Wall Street Journal predicting the
coming Of a great religious revival as
one result of the European war, and
insisting that this possibility is of in
finite concern to business men. tn
Journal believes that ninetenths of
the evils from which business suffers
can be ended by religious feeling,

There is no higehr type Of citizen

their full share to preserve it in the

facts to which it is we'll to call atten-

the fact that war with Germany should

that of national dishonor and coward

WHY FARMERS BUY AuToMo-
All ES

An investigation by Farm Life, COW
ering seven counties in southwestern
Indiana, shows that twice as many
cars are being sold this year, as COM
pared with last: and that about 70
percent Of the machines going out this
season are being sold to farmers.
The investigation seems thorough
enough to establish basis for the
whole country. The licenses issued
by the state were first considered.
running about $4,000 against $4,000
for the same date in 1914. The deal
ers were interviewed as we'll as more
than seven hundred farmers.
Farm Life declares that not only
are average farmers buying machines,
but that every fourth or fifth man
interviewed, if he had no car. is plan
ming to buy one-this year or next
if his crops and live stock ventures
turn out according to his reasonable
hopes.
Is this unusual investment in auto
mobiles by farmers a sign of pros
perity?
1t is attributed by Farm Life large
ly to the decrease in the price OF ma
chimes, and the need felt by the farm
er for time saving and pleasure CIV
ing vehicle. In no instance was it
found that the farmers neglected
their f1ocks and fields to go joy-riding:
on the contrary, the machine owners
We're prosperous and happy.
A machine helps to keep the boys
and girls on the farm, it does away
with the loneliness OF rural life by
making a suburbanite OF its owner,
ana puts the town and the country in
closer touch, both in social and a
+ Isiness way.

JUNEAU, Alaska, May 24.-Ihe
citizens of juneau, the capital of

decision by Federal Judge Jennings

where In the pelvis or In the nerve trunk or
to neuralgia, and tt is characterized by Sc
we're pain. IL very often follows lumbago;
some cases are caused by tmpacted feces
pressing upon the nerve. Sciatica attacks
women more often than men, children
being very seldom affected, and between
the ages of 80 and so the disease IS most
common. GOut and rheumatism seem to be
the active causes OF the disease which is
therefore called scfatic rheumatism

important thing TO relieve. Counter trri-

benefit. Cold applications have proven of
value. However, have found Anti-kamnta
Tablets to give the most prompt and last
