Too many buffalo babies.
Bison herds heard about the anti

Result: 500 bison calves year, and

This is exactly what DR.. Nelson
wants the government to do-buy a

Congressman yelling of Utah has in

HIGHER AN DLOWER

Many American cities are studying
traction problems. Stockholders want
higher dividends. Straphangers want
lower fares. The travelling public has
come to believe that fares cannot be
low while dividends are high. forget
ting that what has made high fares
necessary has not been high dividend
rates as much as ii has been any kind
Of dividend upon stock of very wat
cry texture
Peter Witt. Cleveland traction ex-
pert. believes it quite possible To as
sociate high dividends with low
fares.
He means high dividends upon
money invested. and not on water
pumped in.
Witt has a traction suggestion well
worth considering when arranging the
foundation for street railway fran
chise. He suggests that the dividend
fare schedule be linked together: the
lower the fare the higher the dividend
allowed
This would compel traction officials
to exert their finest managing ahili
ties, their best organizing talents, the
most scrupulous economy, and the
finest efficiency TO keep the rate OF
fare low. They'd profit thereby in
higher dividends
Under the present system the high
er they can boost the fare the larger
will be their dividends.

 the most spectacular play of the game,

 Alabama early in the first period by
 ringing long-range beauty. r McGauley and Hudson played well for
 Alabama, while Hall was exceptionally
 good al ringing. Leake, Kennedy and
 Dorroh, who were sent in in the second
 half, injected fresh vigor into the game
 which had begun to drag somewhat.
 Mccullough played stellar ball for the
 visiting five, registering a pretty long
 distance goal near the close of the game. The beautiful team work that has char acterized the Alabama squad in it's pre- vious games was considerably in evidence in tonight's encounter.

Central Cage Team
 Meets. Tuscaloosa

Central High school will play it's first basketball game Of the 1921 season Sat urday night when the Crimsons clash with the Tuscaloosa High school lads in the gymnasium of the Athletic club.
 Uniforms were given out to eight can didates for the team last week and these eight men at present compose Coach Meyers varsity squad. The men to re- ceive the uniforms are:
 Anderson. Stubbs and Copeland, for wards.
 Iawley and Carlysle, centers.
 Sacs, Goldstein and farrell, guards.
 In addition to these eight men, there are numerous others who are on the verge of being promoted to the varsity squad. When they become more ardent at pass work and team work in general, Meyers will most likely revise his var sity squad entirely.
 The game Saturday will probably be played in the afternoon. so the Crimsons can stage their football banquet that night.
