teresting freak stories in the history
of'roadmaking.
Whem the special geological report
or the scientists attached to the
United States Geological Survey was
submitted to the U. S. Government
Engineers, before construction work
was started, nothing very remarka-
bic was noted, except the statement
that, for 'three-Quarters of a mile
along the proposed river route, there
was a seemingly impenetrable noun
tain of glass running sheer down to
the river.
Road construction was started in
other parts Of the immense domain,
while the engineers prepared to at

a survival of the Cretaceous and sub
sequent Tertiary Periods might have
been yesterday in the history of Vel
lowstonc. whose story goes back to
the first cooling of the earth's sur
face.
Giant blasting powders and heavy
charges of dynamite were used, with
as little effect on the adamant glass
wall as a wooden mallet. Finally,
when all the usual methods had failed
surveyor with the engir eering party,
who had formerly been a glass blower
suggested heating the mountain, and
spraying it afterwards with water to
make it disintegrate.
Since the standard methods had
proved unsuccessful, the engineers
were inclined to think this idea might
he practicable, Accordingly great logs
were hauled and piled along the base
of the mountain, and fires started
along tho three quarter mile section
of the proposed route.
Energetic crews piled logs on the
fire for several days, and after the de-
sired heH had been registered, the
intrepid engineers directed the spray
ing of the mountain face with water
from the river below.

Farmers Today Are
Buying More Cars

The farmer is again coming into
the market Cor the best cars.
A recent far-fung research by one
of the ablest organizations in the
country gives answer that farmers
will re-cstablish their preponderance
as automobile buyers by the time the
crops are marketed this year.
The Bureau of the Census count
shows that there were 2,146,200 pas
sengcr cars and 10000 trucks on
farms three years ago. The general
increase in registration in a farm
state since she period would indicate
that the present farm registration is
well over 100000.

The Better Way

HEALTH TALK No. 9

When we advertise the fact that
our patients recover their health,
we are not indulging in boastful
conversation.
In this series of health talks,
which have attracted much favor
able comment, we have simply
tried to put over the big truth,
as an incentive to induce YOU
to investigate-for our mutual
good.
Our patients talk more forceful-
Iy for us than these messages, There,
fore, if we can persuade YOU to
act upon their testimony, we viii
have accomplished the one big pur-
pose behind these health talks.
The thinking person viii agree
that there can be no better proof
of our claims than the testimony of
patients who have recovered their
health through Chiropractic, after
all other methods have failed.
Investigation will not only con-
vince you that Chiropractic is
right, and just as applica ole in
YOUR case as it has been in hun
dreds of other cases like yours, but
il will stabilize our claims, justify
this advertising, and prove to you
that ChirOpractic is really the bet
