all the cars sold last year, 60 PEI
cent, or nearly two-thirds of the
number, were purchased by the
rural population.
"of course this also includes
some suburbanites. But their
need is similar to that Of the farm

the motor car is solving it in way
that is most efficient,
There is no doubt that the use

motor car has taught his countless

"A great proportion of all the
cars purchased by farmers last
year were Of the thousand dollar

dicates the opinion of the farmer

Buick Excellence
Result of Lengthy
Development Idea

of Buick engineers in building
Buick cars of unusual value -
value that is brought home with
ever-increasing emphasis the long
er the cars are run.
Buick mechanical excellence
has not just happened. 1t has
taken twenty years to develop the
Buick chassis to its present high
state of efficiency through the
proper design and coordination Of
the various mechanical units.
Great emphasis has been laid on
the design and manufacture of
each part, but always with the
balance and proportion of the car
as whole, in mind.
"The smallest details of con-
struction have received thorough
attention, resulting in the thor
ough consistency of Buick.
"And this result has been OBJ
tanned through the correct rela-
tion between power and load, COM
fort and safety, performance and
durability - considerations that
establish the Buick as an eff
cient machine. Admired for it's
beauty, Buick carries with it that
greater essential - mechanical ex-
cellence - by which it can be ia
vorably judged in the most criti-
cal manner by the buyer"

Expert Says Develop

Lexington, KY, April 22.-The
limit in speed of trotting and run
ming horses has almost been
reached, according to Prof. w. r,
Anderson, of the animal husband
ny department of the Kentucky
State College of Agriculture. I'M
proVement in the future will be
much slower than at any time in
years passed, he said.
Prof. Anderson has been making
special study of record holding
STANDARDIZED" trotters and
Thoroughbred" runners, and bas-
es his conclusions on a study of
records and histories of the ami
mails covering a period of more
than so years.
In 60 years, the record of three

from 2.4O to 2,02%, a reduction
OF S7A seconds, Prof. Anderson

generation, according to Prof. An

many new records have been made
IN the life of a single horse.
Tne gradual Improvement in the
speed OF trotting horses, accord
ing to Prof. Anderson, is shown
n 1914 the prediction was made
clearly by the records of three

made. These are as follows:

For pitching recruits, Motion of Spring

1t is expected that the third base po-

KELLY STAGED A
GREAT FIGHT AND
DESERVED TO WIN
Dummy" Missed Too Many
Punches While KeIIy's Left
lab Was in Form
By MARVIN Mccarthy

In one of the best fights of the season.
Battling" Kelly pulled a great surprise
and defeated Dummy harrington, at
the Athletic club last night. When, at
i the end of ten rounds. of the most
Agruelling battling seen in Birmingham
~ many months, the judges and Referee
Parry unanimously decided in favor OF
Kelly, a great cheer from the spectators
evidenced that public sentiment agreed
with the verdict and that the fans were
satisfied with it.
Kelly staged one of the best fights
seen in Birmingham rings in long time.
The manner in which he countered after
each terrific drive by Darlington, shoot
ing in his swift left jab for point after
point, brought cheers of admiration
from the large crowd which attended
the show. Kelly purely outboxed Bar
rington, although the latter fought
fiercely and sought to stave off defeat
repeatedly by trying for a knock out.
DUMMY" MISSED MANY
Darlington can attribute his defeat in
a large measure to the fact that he
missed many punches. His right cross
always came over with all the force that
Dummy could muster behind it. Usu-
ally harrington would Miss and Kelly's
tireless left would shoot in for a fair
hit Kelly was using a "corkscrew up
ways, down, and in and up. 1t proved
to be most effective blow 1T was this
punch that opened bad cut above Bar
rington's eye in the ninth round that
proved to be "Dummy'ss' undoing. Up
to the ninth Kelly was leading, but by
d small margin and a decisive comeback
by harrington in the two final sessions
would probably have earned "a draw or
might even have won the fight for him.
After Kelly opened a bad cut above
Barripgton'ss eye. following up his adj
vantage, little doubt existed in the minds
of the fans as to who was the winner.
DESERVES CREDIT
Kelly deserves much credit for his vic
tory. He appeared to be trained to the
minute. and his ability to keep out OF
the way of 'Dummys" terrific right
crosses was excellent. Kelly didn't run
away from harrington, either. He stood
UP and, while he didn't exactly swap
punch for punch with Darlington, he
showed no desire to avoid lively little
scrimmage any time Dummy seemed
to be in the mood for little excitement.
harrington fought great fight. a
game scrap, for after the fifth round
he was clearly a beaten scrapper. He
continued his aggressive tactics, how
