De Palma Adds
More Records
To His String
Gets Them All Up to Twenty
Miles, With Packard Ayi-
alton Engined Machine;
Goodyear Cords OH Mount

Ralph de Palma and his aviation
a lot more to the records for speed
smashed down on Ormond Beach. After
cleaning up the onemile and the kilo-
metre record on Lincoln's Birthday De
Palma picked out some other marks to
dlsplace and did up a fine lob on
Sunday and Monday last.
He made a mile from a standing
start in 1888 seconds. The old record
was 20 seconds. Then he went after
some longer marks. He covered two
miles in 1854 seconds, as against 51.2S
seconds, which was the old standard
Five miles were reeled off in min
utes ABB seconds, nearly so seconds
better than the former record. Ten
miles We're covered in minutes $3.50
seconds. This bettered the old time
of minutes ID seconds.
The fifteen and twenty-mile marks
were made with a turn. In the fifteen
mile event De Palma had to slow down
TO thirty miles an hour making the
turn He covered the distance in 6
minutes 1885 seconds. He did not
slow quite so much for the twenty
miles. Here he came down to forty
miles an hour, skidding around the
bend on two wheels and making the
onloOkers on bridge at the turn feel
sure De Palma was going to overturn
the car. He did not loiter much, as
the time Of minutes $500 seconds
for the twenty miles shows.
The remarkable speed performances
of De Palma were made possible large
ly by the tires that were used. His car
was shod with Goodyear cord straight
side tires, and the performance of those
tires speaks volumes for the develop
ment of the cord tire in the GOODYEAR
factories at Akron
The ordinary fabric tire would not
stand the strain of this high speed, so
the cord construction was gradually
developed to meet these tests. The
racing tire such as De Palma and other
speed kings use is the ordinary Good
year cord construction, the only differ
ence between it and the cord tire sold
TOR passenger car service being in the
tread, which is made a little thicker
for the racing tires. The carcass of
the tire is IDENTICAL
The straight-side principle in tire
construction is another of Goodyear's
contributions to the motoring world.
It's simplicity and ease of application
are the great advantages of the
straight side tire as against the
clincher formerly used. and in racing
the fact that it prevents pinchng Of
the tube is another big thing

1000 Persons Interested

Since the automobile show in New

Company of New York, inc. has re-
ceived more prospective purchasers at
It's showrooms than during any equal
period IN that firms history.
@t the passenger car show the Mar
mon company sold, at retail, twenty
Marmons and thirty-four Hupmobilcs,
and, what is more important, started
negotiations with upward of 900 pro
spectlve buyers, which is an indication
OF what IS happening in the industry
Naturally enough, most people with
thoughts of purchase like to look over
car at their leisure, examining it
from every angle away from the crowds
and noise of show. That is ono
reason why the Marmon companv's

Matching, makes its way down the

frequently so numerous ms to be pack

produced. Overwhelming is accom-
plished in the flaXseed stage.
Destructive to Wheat.
The Hessian fly feeds chiefly on the
wheat plant, and In smaller measure
or barley and rye. The oat plant is
immune. The effect is that If infesta-
ton begins while the wheat Is young,
the plant grows without stem and be-
leaves. If infestatlon comes after
jointfng has begun, the straws break
over and the wheat falls before har-
vest.

Named for Mercenaries.
The Hessian fly is not native OF
America and nobody knows whence
it came or how. 1t was noticed In
Ito on Long Island, N. Y, In the
vicinity of the place where LORD
Howe's army, largely Hessian mer-
cenaries, had camped three years be-
fore. The popular belief was that
the Hessians had brought the insect
over in the straw used by them as
bedding on board ships. Thus came
the name-and that guess is as good
as any as to how the fly got here.
All that can be authoritatively said Is
that 1t arrived from some transatlan-
tic country some time after the middle
Of the eighteenth century.
The Hessian fly is one-tenth of an
inch long, of an obscure dark color,
and appears much like a very small
mosquito. 1t lays glossy red egg

Why DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp Root is a strengthening medI-
cine 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.
