There is a modern village of the name, but the site of the ancient Marathon is occupied now by a town called Vrana. Along with neighboring towns, the old Marathon belonged to an ancient Hanseatic league called the Tetrapolis. This league claimed a very early origin, legend carrying It back to the time of Theseus, and it survived until after the Fourth century B. C. The plain of Marathon is famous as the scene of the decisive battle in which Miltiades led the Athenians and Plateans to victory over the army of Darius under command of Datis and Artaphernes in B. C. 400. The Greeks numbered about 10,000, while the Persians had a much larger force. But the invaders were put utterly to rout with heavy loss, while the Greeks lost only 192 men. The great mound in which the remains of these dead were placed is still conspicuous on the plain. The battle turned back the eastern invasion of Europe and saved Athens; and, according to Athens; and, according to tradition, a Greek runner sped without stopping from Marathon to Athens bearing the tidings of victory. tra-save- d . will attend the tenth annual convention of the organization at the Hotel Utah, January 14, when issues vital to the contractor and allied industries will be taken qp.

Nearly 7 thousand turkeys, three carloads, averaging fifteen tons to the been shipped from this station to the eastern markets. of Thin Cream. With so many farmers turning to milk production and so many dairymen to cream production it is natural that creameries have been complaining ' about thin cream. The main fact to remember is that it is batterfat alone which determines the amount of returns to farmers selling their cream to creameries. Many patrons have the idea that a large amount of cream should return a correspondingly large pay check, forgetting that they are paid only for the butterfat in the cream, or the butter made from the fat The skimming of a rich cream Is a decided advantage to the patrons In more ways than one. Not only does it make a considerable saving in hauling but a greater amount of skimmilk is retained for use on the farm. Taking a herd of ten cows with an average yield oL 4,000 pounds of milk testing 3.5 per cent, the total milk pro- -' duction will be 40,000 pounds and the total butterfat 1,400 pounds. Where the separator turned out a cream containing 20 per, cent butterfat 7,000 pounds of cream, containing 1,400 pounds butterfat, would be sent to the dairy, leaving only 33,000 pounds of skimmilk. Where separation produces a cream containing 40 per cent butterfat the same amount of butterfat, that is 1,400 pounds, will be sent to the creamery. This leaves 36,500 pounds of skimmilk for use on the farm. This represents a saving in hauling of 3,500 pounds of milk and it gives an additional supply of 3,500 pounds of skimmilk for use on the farm. car,-hav- 'T stuffy nostrils, pr 'soothe irritation by use of Mentholatum in nose.

Poor Policy to Reduce Quality of Herd Sires With present low milk and butterfat prices we hear some talk of using beef bulls on the dairy herd. This is a practice that is too often adopted by short-sighte- d dairymen when the price of their product begins to discourage them. The result inevitably is that when prices do come back this dairyman has no good young dairy cows coming on to replace the old ones which must be eliminated. He finds himself then in poor position to compete with the dairyman who has continuously built up his herd. A study of any large number ol herds will profitable reveal that this goal has been accomplished In most cases by the use of high-clas- s herd sires over a long period of time. The dairymen who will forty-secon- 1828-19- ). MercolizedWax Keeps Skin Young one-ha- lf ot ot .

Successful Farming. Important Dairy Points Maintaining satisfactory prices for farm products is certainly to be included as an Important function in the economics of dairy farm management. What Is a satisfactory price to one farmer may not be a satisfactory price to another farmer. Quality of product and convenience to the consumer in its distribution are Important factors in persuading him to pay a satisfactory price. Farmers cannot force consumers to take a given quantity of a given product at a given time and at a given price unless that that price also suits consumers. And so it Is Important (1) that we strive to reduce the costs of producing feed crops; (2) that we strive to fo more work better with less labor costs; (3) that we conserve our capital Investments; and (4) that we do the best we can at supplying consumers with that quantity of our products for which they are willing to pay satisfactory prices.

Feed good cows at the lowest possible cost per pound of fat. 7. Make possible the fitting of sup' ply to market demand , 8. Adjust the feed requirements of the herd to the crops produced. 9. Provide an incentive for the herd owner to do a better bit of work.

Primitive prototypes of Yales invention were in use lu Mesopotamia and Egypt as early as 2000 B. C. These were huge wooden affairs requiring cumbersome keys, as we may gather from the Biblican passage (Isaiah 22:22) And the key to the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder. This key, or muftah as it ' was and still is called in the East, is a stick of wood from 15 to 30 inches long, 2 to 4 inches broad and 1 to 2 inches thick. Into the face of one end are set a number of wooden or iron pegs about an inch long. These pegs correspond with as many holes in the wooden bar or bolt which locks the door and can only be lifted when these pegs enter the holes and lift a corresponding series of pins which drop home by force of gravity and keep the bar locked until pressed up by the key with its pegs. Such huge keys opened the way into the mighty palaces of Ninevah and Persepolis and Thebes. admitted to hundred-gate- d Today in miniature and more refined fashion, the small key that enters the cylinder lock pushes up the little brass pins inside and permits the opening of the door.
