AUTOS MAY RACE
ON ICE COURSE

circular cinder track on the ice at Lake
Harriet looks good to the auto enthusiasts of
the city. Such track would give the drivers
three-mile course upon which to speed their
machines without the slightest danger of teams
Or pedestrians, and the proposition is regarded
with favor by the owners and dealers. : q
Such track could be used as a race course,
and by keeping down the number of entries the
danger of accidents could be reduced to mini
mum. There has been considerable dispute
among the advocates Of the different types of
autos over the speed value of their respective
cars. road race has been proposed, but found
to be impracticable. The ice track would offer
a fine opportunity to settle all disputed points
1t is probable that if such a track is installed
some enterprising dealer will offer a cup to be
competed for in matinee held on alternate
Saturdays The lake is under the jurisdiction
of the park board. but there is little question
but that its permission to install track can
be obtained Manager Held of the street rail
way company was asked If the company would
lend its assistance, and said that he would take
the matter under consideration. Ri. Smith,
secretary of the club, is in favor of the pro-
ject, and prominent dealers are backing it and
will push the matter at the next meeting of the
Automobile club. -

A JAIL BREAK AT DOUGLAS IN YAQUI RIVER VALLEY
CROPS REPORTED BEST EVER HAD-MAcHINERY NEEDED
 FOR HARVEST.

Mir. A. L. Hench, who owns a farm on the Yaqui river, some thirty miles from Fronterss. was in Douglas a few hours yesterday afternoon, re- turning to Fronteras this morning on the NacoZari train. Mir. Hench is en- gagged extensively in wheat faysng on the Yaqui river and is also engaged in wheat harvesting with machinery for hire. IL was to get some necessary repairs fer his machinery Jliat he came to Douglas. Mir Hench says that the wheat crop of the Yaqui river country was never better than it is this year. easily harvesting twenty-five bushels to the acre. He gets $2.50 per acre for cutting the wheat anl leaving it in windrows and has more to cut than he can handle. All of this wheat crop is threshed out by horses tramping over it and there is a lamentable lack of machinery in that country. A good threshing ma chine with horse power would make fine money as they would get ten bushels out of every hundred for the threshing and wheat on the YaQui is never worth less than four cents per pound, or $40 per bushei. Mir. Hench is of the opinion that big money can be made in agriculture all along the Yaqui TOT many years 10 come and would like to see some active, up-to- date Americans come into to that part of Sonora and begin farming
