Roads and Cities Were limit ly Salt and Ineense Salt and incense were the chief economic and religious necessities of the ancient world, and most of its great commercial routes were established because of them. One of the oldest roads in Italy is the "Via Salaria." The salt route from Greece to the mouth of the Dnie-per led to the same salt pans that supply the Far East today in nor-mal times. It can be said that London was built by salt, for the first settle-ment on the banks of the Thames owed its origin to the fact that there rested the pack-train- s carryi-ng salt from Cheshire en route to the shores of the channel for ex-port to Gaul.

KMGURES from the nation's rac tracks are sufficient evidence tha' norse racing has lost none 01 ns popularity. With the season about half gone for many of the major tracks, bet-tin-totals are high enough to indi-cate that Just about every record will be broken In 1914. The present betting: spree Is unprecedented In t American thoroughbred history. Just seven years ago the pari-mutue- l tracks totaled a fancy t28,000,000. That amount was even greater than many an enthusiast hud predicted, but the follow-u- p has been little short of phenornonal. Each year, since 1!)38, the betting handle has Increased. In 1939 it mounted to $291,000,000, and In 1910 climbed to $108,000,000. Racing of-ficials thought that the 1943 mark of $703,000,000 would stand for quite some time, but with the 1944 sea-son slightly more than six months old, It is obvious that all records are to be shattered thoroughly. Heavy Gains Reported The country's biggest tracks are operating on a colossal basis. New York, Chicago, New England, Cali-fornia and Detroit all report heavy gains. More than a billion dollars will have been wagered by bettors before the season's end. It should be remembered, too, that this total is the legalized betting at the tracks. It has been estimated that at least an equal amount is wagered with illegal handbooks throughout the nation. When New York's season passed the halfway mark as the Saratoga meet opened, indications were that by at least (400,000,000 will have been wagered, and the state treasury enriched by tome $27,000,000. The New York estimate Is based on the assumption that the second half of the season will be compara-ble to the first. When the Empire season ended, marking the halfway point, the total betting for 96 days (97 were originally scheduled but races were cancelled on came to $208,038,623. If the second half of the campaign equals the first, the total would reach $416,077,246. And there is every reason to believe that betting won't fall off at any of the major tracks. During 1942 the average Detroit racing fan bet $26.96 every time he went to the Fair Grounds to aid in the improvement of the breed. In 1943 this average went up to $33.50. But in 1944 the average jumped to $39.04 and Is still mounting. Neiv York Average However, New York continues to stay ahead in matters of horse rac-ing. During the racing at Jamaica, It was figured that the fans averaged $72 a day. When the New York races were shifted to Belmont, the average jumped between $92 and $100 a person. Race track operators are quick to realize that such huge figures may in time work against them in the form of increased taxes. They have attempted to solve this problem by making huge contributions to war relief agencies. During 1943 these war relief con-tributions totaled $8,618,480.86. According to John N. Sabo, Detroit turf editor, more than $160,000,000 ia invested in race tracks, horses and big breeding farms. The estimated value of the horses racing in the United States today is $55,000,000. "Actually,"' Sabo writes, "under present-da- y high prices of thorough-breds, the total is greater. Horses which cost $1,500 two or three years ago now are unobtainable at twice that figure. "A good Indication is the racer Pericles which William A. Hellis of New Orleans purchased for $06,000 as an untried yearling. The 'Racing Sky It wasn't so long ago that racing officials were having more than their share of trouble. The sport was being condemned quite widely as a wartime luxury something that could be eliminated from the national scene without loss to mo-- , rale. The tracks were making big , money. And they were a bit slow j about contributing their share to war relief organizations. The contributions made by the tracks have been impressive, but not out of proportion. Racing is big business and extremely profitable. The sport not only can afford to be generous, it must be generous. It is too dependent upon the public' good will to be anything else. SPORTS SHORTS Cleveland sport fans have donated $15,000 to a fund to provide playing equipment and free medical care to sandlot ballplayers in the city. The president of the newly formed Pacific Coast professional football league, J. Rufus Klawans, got his start playing under A. A. Stagg at the University of Chicago in 1909. The first no-hi- t, no-ru- n game in the American Association this sea-son was hurled by Walter Brown of roledo, to defeat Milwaukee, Brown walked four men. WW A V MCEA IT WAS the belief of Rudyard Kip- - linjj that "the female of the spe-tic- s is more deadly than the male." fn sunnnrt of this nnirle he intro- - luced the she-bea-iie lioness, the le cobra and sev-eral other entries from wild life, where nature is in !ts raw, or primary itate. Trainer Ben Jones ho has a filly named Twilight Tear under his di-rection, backs up Kipling. For Twi- - Graniiant Rice light Tear is easily the top three-yea- r old of 1944, a thoroughbred who could have won Hie Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont going away. As It is she las only won 11 straight races, the $80,000 Arlington Classic. All of this, however, doesn't prove that the "female of the species" is even close to dominating sport. I (till believe Babe Dldrikson, who la st least first class In 14 major sports -I-ncluding basketball, golf, tennis, iwimmlng, diving, football, base-ball, boxing, running, high jumping, lavelin throwing, etc., might be too itrong a combination for any male. M least she was 10 or 12 years ago. But it is sad news to report that the ladies are still behind the best tf the males when it comes to rank-ing them, game by game. For one xample we might take up golf, a tame that lacks any form of body tontact. I don't believe the best woman golfer that ever lived could come within 10 or 15 strokes of Byron Nelson, Jug McSpaden or Ben Ho-ga- n In a medal test over a championship course. Joyce Weth-tre-d has been the best. But I doubt (hat even Joyce Wethered could break 300 under such conditions, where the best pros are anywhere from 275 to 280. Certainly such stars as Babe Dld-rikson, Patty Berg, Helen Hicks, etc., could never meet this pro pace. Women Tennis Stars In the game of tennis, we might move in Bill Tilden against Helen Willi and Suzanne Lenglen. I know that Bill Tilden has always felt that he could beat either 6-- 6-- He has played against both often enough to feel that his judgment in this respect was sound. I doubt that either Helen Wills or Suzanne Leng-len could ever have gotten a game from Tilden when all were at the main peak. Certainly no woman sprinter has ever been within 10 yards of Pad-dock, Wykoff, Jesse Owen or the faster males, in a hundred yard or 100 meter dash. They would all be still farther back from the 220 to the mile. They would ba outclassed in the high jump, the hurdles, the broad jump, In baseball, football or basket-ball. The women have continued to break swimming records, month by month and year by year. But they are still well back of every mascu-line mark from the 100 yards to swimming style may be. The facts are that so far the wom-en can't yet play games on a par with the best of the men. In their ranks they have nothing to com-pare with the she-bea- r, the tigress, the lioness, the female cobra, or Twilight Tear. But here is a peculiar slant. In the jungle the female of the species ts even tougher than the male. But it is different along the highway of civilization, if there is any such high way left. Looking to the Future For all of this, it is amazing how far women have advanced in every form of the sport in the last 20 years. Their improvement has been a bril-liant epic. This includes golf, swim-ming, tennis and other games where they at least have a chance in physi-cal ways. Only give them a little more time. For example, taking each t the top, Babe Didrikson would have been outclassed by Dempsey, Tunney, Bronko Napurski, Ty Cobb, etc., in their major sports. But she would have outclassed them at golf, tennis, swimming, diving, jumping, basket-ball, and several other major enter-prises. . Just how long it will take the women to produce a Twilight Tear, a female better than all the males, is another argument. But if it can happen to a horse, why not to a hu-man? It might be. The "female of the species" is at least upon her way. Football Odds and Ends Five football scouts, early start-ers, write me that Walker of Chi-cago and Vale, is the best college football player in the country, not even barring the pick of the many stars at Annapolis and West Point. It seems that Walker is only 6 feet 2 or 3, that he only weighs 220 pounds, that he is fast and rugged and happens to like the game. For 'the sake of Howie Odell, the Vale coach, I hope he is even better j than the scouts think be is. Howie ' deserves it- Fly-Sizc- tl Powerhouse Can Operate Machinery One of the smallest electric mo-tors ever built is no larger than the ordinary housefly. The tiny powerhouse, weighing a quarter of a pound, not only runs itself but operates other delicate ma-chinery as well. Product of the ingenuity, pa-tience and skill of a Nebraska man who worked on it three years, the motor is composed of 58 parts of gold, silver, copper, brass and iron. Try cutting the outside leaves of cauliflower into inch-lon- g pieces, and, when done, creaming with white sauce. When making feather mattresses and pillow ticks, dampen a bar of laundry soap and rub all over the inside of the ticking. ThU ore-ven- ts the feathers from working out through the cover fabric. Here's a tip to facilitate mend-ing large holes in sweaters. Place a piece of netting under the hole, then darn with matching wool. The netting serves as backing and makes a better darning job pos-sible. If you have a dog, cook him some cornmeal in the wafer in which vegetables have been :ooked. Divide the dog's daily ration into three meals, instead of two. He does not get so hungry then and does not eat so fast. Pack all apples individually in newspapers before putting in a barrel. They keep better this way. flang a geod-size- d bag in the sewing room to receive scraps from sewing to be used for weekly mending. Most light bulbs have a life of from 1,000 to 3,000 hours. You will save bulbs and electricity by turn-ing them off when not needed. Use good quality bulbs of the right size for your needs. A 100-wa- tt bulb gives more light, costs less to buy and less to operate than two tt bulbs. Buy lights with the proper voltage rating for your current. Try keeping the peanut butter jar upside down on the pantry shelves between trips to the ta-ble. The alternate turning it re-ceives this way helps keep the oil distributed through the entire jar.
