Eighty Miles an
Hour Puts Auto
in Side Ditch

What might have oeen tragic
accident occurred on the state high
way Just east OF town Monday
when a big machine driven by lady
whose name could not be learned.
attempted to pass another car, both
OF which were going east ON the
highway near the John Kaeser cor
ner.
The lady is said to have admitted
that when she succeeded in passing
the other car the speedometer OF
her machine was registering so miles
an hour. At that moment a lighter
machine driven by woman also
turned onto the highway from the
side road. The driver OF the racing
car had but one alternative to stri-
king the lighter car broadside. and
she chose to take the ditch, which
she did with extensive damage to
the car. and not a blemish to her
fortunate self.

equaled since the Panama-Pacific

Montana led the world. With a total
of 80 entries in the grain division,
Smith and Peterson, together with
other Ravalli county exhibitors, took
81 prizes, which included a first in
durum wheat, first in early oats, sec
ond in hard red winter wheat, second
in two-rowed barley, and a third in
durum wheat and oats.
Both men are we'll known through
out the state for their excellent grain
and forage exhibits at the Ravalli

won first on grains at the state fair

them this year was a marvel to exhib-
