 ON GALLON OF GAS
Maxwell Car Makes Thirty Miles on a Single Gallon
 of WOcO Gasoline

Driving pr. B. D. sibley's Maxwell, S. D. Baker last Wednesday estab- lished the phenomenal record of 50 miles on single gallon of gasoline.
 Woco was the brand of gasoline used in making this run.
 This 30-mile record is regarded as one of the most wonderful ever made by an automobile.
 The car started from the DeShazo Motor Car company going around Highland avenue, thence to First ave- nue. and out First avenue to the Pin son pike, thence back to the city, the driving continuing uNtil the gasoline was exhausted.
 special certified gallon gasoline can was attached to the wiadshield, after being filled with Woco gaso- line, and a hose conducted the gaso- line into the carburetor All other sources of gasoline supply were cut off
 The test Wednesday with Dr. Sib- ley's Maxwell was in connection with similar tests conducted throughout the United States and Canada under the auspices of the Maxwell Motor Car corporation. Cash prizes totaling s50O0 will be distributed by the corporation to Maxwell owners making the best records.
 Athur Speights, president of the De- Shazo Motor Car company. distributors of Maxwell cars, was elated with the result of the local test. He Is confi- dent that Dr. Sibley will be in the money offered for the longest run on d single gallon of gasoline and that his company has chance for the gold Maxwell economy championship cup

Artificial Milk

From the Popular Science Monthly.
 The science of substitution is becoming a great factor in modern industry. In England an artificial milk is being manu- factured which is claimed to be both wholesome and inexpensive, so that now the market Is not wholly dependent upon the product of the cows The artificial milk Is made from peanuts, soy beans. sugar, water and mineral salts About 400 grains of potassium phosphate or an equivalent of sodium phosphate is dis solved in 200 pints of water at 176 degrees Fahrenheit. Enough sugar is added to give four and five-tenths per cent to the finished product Forty pounds of meal prepared from the nuts and beans Is stirred in. The solution is boiled in a steam ia cketed pan; then 1t is subjected to the operation of a vacuum pan, and lastly it is treated with a culture of tactic bacteria until the required acidity is obtained. After it is pasteurized and cooled small percentage of citric acid is added.
 The milk thus produced may be con- densed and sold in cans or dried and powdered or sold as liquid in bottleS The addition of nut fats will give a cer- tain proportion of cream. By using suf- ficient tactic bacteria the product may
