Many Waterfowl people went to
the twin cities last week to witness
the auto races. The time was slow,
compared with the Indianapolis and
Chicago races. Earl Cooper, in a
Stutz, won first, making an average
3speed of about sc miles an hour. An
derson, also driving a Stutz, was only
Ia second behind at the finish. The
most noted drivers met with acct
dents early in the ace and had to
withdraw. In this connection it may
be said that the highest known speed
at which an automobile has been
driven is 1929 miles an hour by Ar
thur Deray in Belgium in 1918. Bob
Burman won the worlds fastest mile
race, straightaway, in 1911. making
a speed Of 141.73 miles an hour. The
greatest two-mile record was u in
1914 at a speed of 111.9 miles an hour
The fastest speed any WATERFOWL
man has ever made, so far as known,
was with a Ford, coming down Bat
tie Mountain, in Colorado, going at
the rate of 750.999 miles a minute
at least, so it seemed to the driver.
A two-year-old bull saw the thing
coming, and thought it was a comet
and got out Of the way. For real
speed, there's nothing like the Battle
Mountain track-we've tried it.

Mr.. and Mrs. F. f. Tracy returned
last week from an extended sojourn
in Colorado and other western points.
They spent the greater portion of the

journeyed to San Diego and other
California points. Mr.. Tracy, con

sentative, said that conditions in the
west are greatly depressed and per
haps never more SO than the pres
ent. So far as Colorado is concerned,
throughout the greater portion the
fruit crop is a failure this year, ow-
ing to spring frosts. In the Grand
Valley, in which Grand Junction is
situated, there is no tree fruit ex-
cepting in the upper portion thereof
that is, none that can be really
considered a crop. But the people
Throughout the west live in hopes and
are endowed with dauntless courage.
Some of the finest people on earth,
in his opinion, reside in the west,
especially in Colorado, in Fruita and
vicinity. While the climate in Colo.
RADIO is delightful, and the people are
gracious and whole-souled, both Mr..
and Mrs. Tracy think that South Da-
kota is good enough for them.
