HOW RACERS FINISHED

speedway Park, chicago, June 29.-
Dario Resta. Italian motor racer, is
the speed kind of the world. He drove
an automobile for 500 miles at pace
faster than 1t was ever driven before.
He shattered world records, won
prizes aggregating $4,000, fought his
way to supremacy over twenty rivals,
and crossed the tape an easy winner
of Chicago's first auto derby, which
was held on Saturday.
The performance opened the fastest,
safest automobile race track in the
world-the Chicago speedway.
In his Peugeot French racing car,
Resta travelled the 500 miles in five
hours, seven minutes and twenty-sev-
en- seconds. His average rate of speed
throughout the race was 97.6 miles an
hour.
Once In a hair-raising squirt that
spread the silence of fear over $4,000
spectators, he circled the two-mile
course at the speed of 107 miles an
hour.
Every one Of the ten winning cars
that followed Resta to the finish line
made better time than the worlds rec
ord established at the Indianapolis
speedway on Memorial day by Ralph
De Palma.
Porporato, another native of the
land that once held all the high speed
chariot records, finished second. He
drove hard race in his English rae
ing car, the Sunbeam special. Travel
ing at the rate of 96.5 miles an hour.
he devoured the 500 miles in five
hours, ten minutes and fifty seconds
He won the second prize of $4,000.
The first American to receive the
checkered flag was Rickenb acher who
sent his American-made racer, Max
well special, across the line for third
place. An average rate OF 95.S miles
an hour brought the foremost Ameri-
can racer $4,000 prize money.
Grant, in another Sunbeam car,
earned fourth place and prize with a
wonderfully maintained speed of 50. 6
miles per hour In making his remark
not once at the pits. This veteran of
the speed course stopped neither for
gasoline tires. repairs, water nor food.
With his gas tanks empty in the
last half of the last lap Of the long
grind, he coasted in across the line
and smashed the worlds nonstop COM
petitive record, The performance is
startling to all motordQm.
Earl Cooper and Gil Anderson, In
their Stutz bulldogs, finished fifth and
sixth with respective averages Of 949
and 94.4 miles per hour.
The Sebring, which was the last car
in the money. travelled the distance at
an average speed of 90.3 miles an
hour, higher by mile than the old
worlds record
Neither death nor injuries to either
racers or spectators occurred

THE RELIEF OF THE BELGIANS.

There are few more inspiring stor-

the Belgian people when they faced
famine conditions as a result of the
war, says the Post Express. The
task is still unfinished, but $70,000,-
600 worth of foodstuffs has been sent
through the marvelously efficient or =.

food, without which Belgium would
have starved, has been but a part of
the work The Commission organ
lied both finances and industry in
the stricken country and estabishe /!
a banking and commercial trading
institution through which money and
credit were exchanged for provisions
The direct contributions in monev
and food sent by Americans amount
to nearly $10,O00,000.

year of nearly % per cent. increase
over last years yield shows a percent
age OF gain of from 10 to to Is per cent
more than the rate of gain in popula
ton during the same period.
This increase in grain is in part
matched by large increase in the
number of hogs In the South, although
the effect of the big grain crop will,

rot find full expression in the in
crease of hogs until next year. The
gain in the South in the number OF
hogs as compared with September OF
last year runs from 2 per cent in
West Virginia to 20 per cent in South
Carolina, with gains in other South
ern States running from 4 per cent,
5 per cent. and per cent. up TO 10 per
cent. The Increase of 20 per cent in
South Carolina is not exceeded by any
other state in the Union, and is equal
ed by only two.
This increase In grain and meat
production, added to the advancing
price for cotton, with increasing de-
mand, is bringing about a spirit of op-
timism which has not been seen
throughout the South since the be-
ginning of the war.
