TR0TT|NG RACES ON
POTOMAC SPEEDWAY
Large Crowd Favored With
Ideal Weather Witnesses
T.
Some Interesting Sport.

Four races CT three heats each and
two pony races were held at the racing
matinee yesterday afternoon on the Po-
tomac Park speedway under the auspices
of the Washington Drivers and Riders
Association.
The day was ideal for the sport and a
large crowd was attracted by the races.
The first event. a free-for-all, was won
by Arcola, driven by LOTUS, in two heats,
Manuella, driven by Gilbert Hall, win
ming the second heat. Arcolas best time
was 1.O4%. Red Rock and Major Purcell,
who were entered for this race, were
scratched.
Five PAGERS Scratched.
Five Of the original nine entries in the
class A pace. the second event. were
scratched. Harry Madden. driven by Bar
ney Dougherty, won in the last two heats.
Robin Hood. driven by Francis Javins.
won the first heat. with Harry Madden
second. The fastest time In the race.
LOFTY, was made in the first heat of a half
mile by Robin Hood.
DIR. Chase. owned by George Goodacre.
won three straight heats in the class A
trot, In which there were four entries.
among the spectators as to the second
heat which some thought was won by
Gallant Maid. with Francis Javins driver.
but the judges thought otherwise. DR.
Chase's best time was 1.Os1s-in the Sec
ond heat.
Trouble With the Ponies.
The first heat in the ponies trotting
race had to be trotted over because the
little animals came rushing over the
course, some running and some trotting,
as they passed the judges stand. There
was a repetition Of the rules violations
in the second ponies race. and II seemed
difficult to hold the little fellows down.
However, the race for large ponies was
won by Prince. driven by Miss Olive
Brown, and the race for small ponies by
Shamrock. driven by Miss Marion VIII
liams. The prizes were cups donated
by George Goodacre and A. J. Stabler.
Misses Martha Hazard, Mildred r. Hoge
Ruth Curtis and Mrs. Edward Crane were
the judges in the pony races and Miss
Curtis, the timer.
Foxy Grafton won every heat in the
GLASS b trot. which was the final race
of the day. His best time was Ito IL.

I've Stewed Peaches,

Caustic soda strong enough TO eat
away the skin OF an unripc peach
must be anything but soothing TO
the inner man or child. The full sig
nificancc OF this is best understood in
connection with the fact that causiic
soda is used in making many kinds
OF soap: in fact. il is the dirt eating
art nf soap.
II is said that the great majority
OF the canncrics use the lyc process
in place OF the knife-pccling method.
Attempts have been made for some
time to get the Department of Agri-
culture to make a ruling on this
question which would compel the
canncrs who use this method to say
so on the labels of their goods. II
looks now as il the question will be
passed up to Congress for specific
law covering this phase of the pure
food agitation.
The use of caustic soda is impossi-
bic with ripe fruit because it discol-
ors 4 ripe peach so that it will not
pass muster with the users OF high
grade canned fruits. In consequence
this process is possible only with upS
ripe fruit. and green fruit is purpose
ly gathered for canning.
Owing to the absence of any marks
on the cans to indicate the use Of
caustic soda. the only way the Gus
toner can tell il he has purchased a
lyc-process can of fruit is by taste.
Open a can of peaches. wash away
the syrup from a piece OF the fruit.
Then taste il. II it is void Of favor.
woody and pulpy. and has soa"v
appearance, it is undoubtedly the lye-
peeled variety.
The pure food agitation which has
been principally over the question OF
bcnzoa,e Of soda has now taken a
new turn and renewed interest will
doubtless be aroused over this ques-
tion.
Ii is said that in most of the can
ncrics of the country peaches are
stcwcd in rcd-hot caustic soda to eat
away the skins and thercoy save the
cost of knifc-peclinC. the difference
in cost amounting to a cent and a
half or two cents ner cnn.
In the process of this iye stewing
almost all the flavor of the peach dis
appears and doubtless little caus,ic
soda is left on each piece OF fruit as
mcmento of its trip through the
carnery

The Sans Souei's met last week with
Mrs. H. A. Dawley. Roll call was re-
sponded to by each lady present with an
original verse on Rocky Ford. The
tricks the muse had played were certain
ly amusing. The city water question
seemed to call forth the divine affiatus,
almost to the exclusion Of other Rocky
Ford topics. Certainly it is shame that
50 much poetic talent should be hid. like
q light under bushel. in the humble role
Of houseksepsr for mere man.

Ambition Slipping Away.

Bryan women know how the aches
and pains that come when the kidneys
fail make life a burden. Backache,
hip pains, headaches, dizzy spells, all
tell of sick kidneys and warn you of
the stealthy approach of diabetes,
dropsy and Bright's disease. Doan's
Kidney Pills permanently cure all
these disorders.
Can Bryan sufferers desire stronger
proof than this woman's words?

backache and although / used a num-
Der of remedies, was unable to find
relief. had about given up hope of
ever becoming better when friend
