SOLVE PROBLEMS C. P. Steinmetz, “Wizard of Electricity,” Says Cur rent Will Do Wonders AS MOTIVE POWER In Water and Highway Transportation—Electric Drive on Ships Cited (United Press Service) Schnectady, New York, Feb. 24.— Water and highway transportation, ae well as railways, eventually may depend upon electricity for motive power because of its greater economy and ■ efficiency, according to Dr. Charles, I’. Steinmetz, the "wizard of elec-1 tricity. The famous inventor called atten- , tlon, in an interview with the United Press, to the success of the electric' drive on American warships and the fact that this method of propulsion is being extended to merchant cruft. | As regards automobiles, he said: "When the gasoline engine was first used lor automobiles people protested they would never come into general use because the fuel was not readily obtainable. This difficulty was overcome by the simple process of producing more gasoline and establishing supplies in every part of the country. The use of electric automobiles for' touring will grow in just the radio I that facilities for recharging storage batteries are extended.’ The use of electric engines for airplanes will never become feasible, be-, caus of the prohibitive weight of the batteries, considering their power asl compared witli the power of gasoline, engines of corresponding weight, he I said. Dr. Steinnletz declared that water-1 pewer could never completely replace coal and petroleum products for gen-1 erating electricity, saying that "if every drop of rain which falls in the United States in a year could be i transferred directly into power it! could not replace our present coal con-, sumption." He similarly character-, ized the use of the sun s rays, tidesl and the wind for solution of our power I problems under present conditions as J “dreams,’’‘contending that the expense I • would far outweight the value of the, j power derived. - Communeation with other planets ; by radio was said by Dr. Steinmetz to I ; ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

MARKET AT LOSS / Lafayette, Ind., Feb. 24. —Two hundred nnd t’wenty head of western k.mba fed by the Purdue University h iilturul experJment station were! 'maiknted recently at a. lose of more; than H a head, it was announced. I This loss was said to have/ been ,

i | due mainly to the rapid decline in | market prices of lambs, which showed; I a r,toady drop all during the feeding 11 season. Tho Purdue lambs were bought on I the Chicago market in October foi i|12.25 per hundredweight and were sold on the same market In February, l for DO. The total receipts for the I ( lumini were slightly les thun the or- . iginal cost, which means that all feed, i labor, interest, freight and other 1 items of cost, in haling the, lambs > ! not crediting manure were lost. Eskimos gorge themselves on ber-1 lies during the season when these ' j small i'rulta are ripe.

Just take a dose of Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound. It is effective and pleasant to take. Harry L. Neff. Price Hill, Cincinnati, Ohio, knows it is good for long-standing coughs and colds, too. He writes: "1 had a very bad cough for almost two years. 1 have taken 3 bottles of Foley's Honey and Tur and am almost well. I simply would not do without it in the house. Sold everywhere.
