The oldest industry in the world is
the gathering Of salt. 1t has been
manufactured in Italy, the real home
of the salt industry, for the past a.
500 years. In some countries salt is
so scarce that it is obtained through
the ashes of grass and and species of
palm and other plants. Salt has been
the cause of wars and at various
times has been used as currency by
uncivilized tribes.

Attempts Nonstop Trip, Chicago to
New York-Finished Monday
Winds Hinder Speed-Dark-
ness Overlook Her.

Binghampton, N. attempting a
nonstop flight from Chicago to New
York, Miss Ruth Law, guiding a
Curtiss biplane of the military scout
type, shattered all American long
distance aviation records for sin
gle flight Sunday, when she flew
from Chicago to Hornell, NJ Y, a dis.
lance by railroad of about $50 miles,
lettering by about 100 miles the rec.
ord made by Victor Carlstrom on No.
vember 2.
Cross Wind Cuts Speed.
A delayed start and cross wind
that cut down her speed and forced
her to descend to replenish the gaso
line supply, were responsible for her
failure to reach New York city. Miss
Law said after her arrival at Bing-
hamton at 1920 o'clock Sunday after
noon.
Previously Miss Law had never
made single flight longer than 25
miles. Her machine, small biplane
has spread Of wings less than hall
that of the Carlstrom machine. II
was not specially designed for the
occasion.
Miss Law covered a distance OF
about 1856 miles in six hours and SO
minutes, time being deducted for the
descent at Hornell. The first 662
miles, the distance by rail between
Chicago and Hornell, was made with
out stop.
Delayed at Start.
Miss Law left Chicago at 1925 a
m. eastern time. She had expected
to start before that hour but was
delayed by experiments with the car
burator for an hour and a half In
the time thus lost the aviatrix might
have covered the remaining distance
to New York.
At the outset of her flight strong
wind blew toward the east. Aided by
this she made an average speed Of
100 miles an hour at an altitude OF
about 5000 feet. During the last zoe
miles, before the stop at Hornell, a
sharp cross wind blew, with the re
suit that her gasoline tank was soon
emptied. She glided two miles into
Hornell at 2:07 p. m.
After replenishing her supply Of
gasoline Miss Law flew the remain
der, III miles to Binghamton withou
nlishap. Here darkness overlook he
and she was forced to descend. Sh'

Regarding the
- Interstate Fail

A short time ago the HERALI
proposed thru it's columns that 6
meeting Of the stockholders Of
the Interstate Fair association
should be called to revise the by.
laws, so that the annual meeting
and election of officers could be
held earlier in the year. Since
that time we have interviewed
several OF the business men Of
the city and officers of the asso-
citation, and, with few excep.
tions. they seem to favor the
idea.
AS mos of us that are inter
ested in the fair know, building 5
will be needed. the race track
will Iced more work and there
are numerous other matters that
will necessitate much more tim e
than ALLOW ed by the date that is
now set for the annual meeting.
Another matter is that Of the
fair circuit which was mention
ed in the HERALD last week. We
do not think that any action
should be taken in this mater
without the consultation Of the
stockholders. and further some
thing Wi. be done in this regard
before the meeting in June.
Under he present y-laws, the
officers term consists of more
time after the fair than before.
We think that this should be re-
versed. The HERALD editor, as
one Of the stockholders Of the
Fair association requests that the
Of The association hold
a meeting and discuss the advis-
ability Of the plan mentioned
above and if in their opinions it
is best, to call a meeting of the
stock holders for some time this
month to revise the bylaws.

city. three hundred head of heif-

This movement of young cat
tie into the country at the pres

that can be done for the farmer.
At the present time there is
much feed to be had that will be
wasted unless fed before spring
and since until the past few
ysars there were few breeders
in the country, it is necessary to
get the young cattle from the
outside.
The cattle are sold on time to
ADvCne that wishes to feed. and
this gives the man with a sur
