Goes Imported Colt a Belated

w by Jerry Carroll, Is finally |
out OF the two-ycar-old |
maiden class. This imported colt
graduated In the last race yesterday,
running over the five-furlong course
in 80 AS, equalling the best track
record for the distance with ono ex-
ception. that being the last time out,
when Matinee Idol beat him. Nut
cracker lost by u nose then, according
to the judges, In what looked like d
dead heat. Matt Allen, the official
timer, hung up .5S 3-5 as the time
OF the race, and this replaced all pre-
vious marks. Before that the best
time for the Aqueduct five furlongs,
recorded at the present meeting by
the way, was so AS. which was made
successively by Lady Dorothy, then
equalled by Royal Ensign a day later
and duplicated by Enhlade. 1t will
be thus seen that Nutcracker has
earned a ranking with the aforemen-

LINING FOR ALFALFA

Alfalfa requires soil that is neutral

acidity be neutralized by lime in order
that the desirable bacteria may thrive

ash often contains as much az 40 pei
cent of lime, while red clover contains
26 per cent and timothy per cent.
Most Tennessee soils are acid. ex

interest to the American nation. Wher
Mr. Samuel H Lever assumed his du

about the price paid for shells. He
says, TT rather developed that the
prices being paid were what had beer
paid before, and that no Information
was In the Department making the
contracts as to the actual cost-as tc
what value you were getting for what
you were paying"
He set to work, with the aid of &C
countants, to determine the cost of the
various shells. The big armament
firms were then confronted with these
costs, with the result that the price OF
shells was Immediately cut down 2E
per cent to 80 per cent.
Next, the Government shell factories
were the subject Of investigation by Mr.
Lever. Quoting again from his state

doing we instituted a cost system ir
