AGAIN LOWERS THE RECORD
Lusitania Clips seventy-two Minutes
From Former Mark.

New York, Nov 8--The marvellous
record established less than month
ago by the giant turbine Cunarder
Lusitania, when she cut several hours
from the passage time across the At
lantic, already has been broken. The
lAusitania still retains the title of
queen OF the seas, as it was she her
self that esta blished the new low mark
and incidentally she added several
new records to her credit. These in
.clnde the best single days run, 61S
knots, made Nov. s.; an average Of
more than 600 knots for every full
day and an average hourly speed of
24.25 knots for the full 2,781 miles.
On her last voyage the Lusitania
covered the distance in days. 10
hours and SO minutes. The voyage
Just ended over the same course was
completed in 4 days, 1S hours and 40
minutes, thus clipping one hour and
twelve minutes from the previous low
mark And this was done in the face
of conditions none TOO favorable. From
the start the weather was stormy and
on the last two days, when the big
steamer was on the home stretch
where. the greatest burst of speed
might have been expected. she drove
straight into the teeth OF strong
wind, high seas and occasional sharp

not to permit swearing. smoking, to-

MONEY FOR THE NORTHWEST
New York Banks Will Render All Pos
sible Aid.

+
sible Aid.
New York, Nov. Now that the
monetary strain has been lessened To-
cally the New York banks have begun
preparations to ship all available cur
rency to the Northwest to aid the
movement of crops. While there is
concerted action among the city bank
ing institutions to meet the demands
from the crop country the individual
banks also will send all funds that can
possibly be spared.
Estimates of the amounts that the
New York banks will send to the
Northwest within the next six weeks
vary. The Chase National bank and
the First National bank have com
menced to ship daily sums ranging
from $4,000 to $4,000 to banks along
the route of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific railroads.
James j. Hill held conference
here with officials of the Chase Ma
tional bank and other institutions, at
which he asked that the Northwest be
given all possible assistance. He was
Informed that, while the local banks
could not furnish the usual amount Of
money for crop moving, they were
anxious to do all they could to expe-
dite the shipment of cereals to the
seaboard.

culturist IN charge Of the experiments
being conducted in Arizona. New MexL
co and Texas. arrived in San Antonio
recently In various experimental sta
tions in the arid land districts the cul-
ture of figs. dates and olives is being
conducted. says the San Antonio Ex-
press
Mr.. Mason declares that southwest
Texas is an ideal country for the Gull
ture of dry land olives, and the annual
yield of olives may become one of the
most important crops of the state
Rocky dry land, which is considered
unfit for the cultivation Of crops, is
the kind of land needed for the culture
of the olive
The department of agriculture has
improved specimens of the dry land
olive from northern Africa. where it
is grown extensively These plants
have been grown in different sections
OF the southwest, and at the Laredo
experimental station the department
has met with exceptional success
The dry land olive which makes
the finest oil. may be raised to better
advantage in Texas than in Caffor-
MIA, said Mr.. Mason In certain sec
tions of Africa this crop is almost the
only support of the people. There are
three plants that seem to thrive in 4
desert. barren soil where no otlr.E
plants will grow. They are the fig.
the olive and the date palm. Arizola.
Texas and Mexico can grow enough
dates to supply the markets of the
world
THE cultivation of figs has been neg
lected in Texas, although there is. a
market for the fruit at your door, and
success is assured The agricultural
department has been carrying on ex-
periments with Arabian dates of the
finest quality. and we find that they
may be grown here with great sue

San Antonio. The rocky hills sur
rounding this city could be turned into
olive groves which would be immense
~ profitable. The district surround
ing San Antonio is ideal for the culture
of this olive, and San Antonio could
supply the country with olive oil.
THE dry land olive was introduced
to this country from Tunis. in north
ern Africa. Although that country has
an average annual rainfall Of only nine
inches, olive growing is the principal
industry. Thousands of tons Of oil
are shipped every year and are sold
at fancy prices in Europe The Unit
ed States is a great consumer of olive
oil, and all that is used here is import
ed. This immense trade can be
brought to southwest Texas IL the peo-
pie will plant olive trees on what they

ject, SO interesting indeed that it has
attracted the attention of a host of the

on hygiene and many different opin-

least, all are agreed. This is that the
right kind Of a breakfast is essential
A perfect breakfast is impossible

crisp, vitalizing, whole-wheat food.
In making Malta-Vita the whole of
the wheat after being cleaned, is thor
oughly steamed and cooked in abso-
lutte purity and then mixed with malt
extract, a powerful digestive agent,
which converts the starch of the wheat
into maltese, or malt sugar. Maltese
is great food and the weakest stomach
digests and assimilates it without eff

wafer-like flakes the matted wheat is

healthful food in the world. Always
ready to eat. All grocers, now 10 cents.
