AT THE RACES
Late special-sMALL DEVIL
Second at Agawam Park

The coming Saturday is Futur-
ity Day. j. K. G. Lawrence, sec
retary of the Coney Island Jockey
Club, conceived the idea Of the
Futurity.
Early racing clubs of America,
those of the SOS and '70S, used
to foster special races between
the products of breeders and own
ers. Breeder Jones might be
positive that a colt or filly by his
imported stallion Nero could beat
any offspring of Breeder Browns
stallion, The Fiddler. The argu-
ment would wax hot and heavy,
ending up by Jones betting Brown
anything from champagne din
ner for a hundred friends to a
cash wager as high as $4,000. Con-
ditionS of the race were that it
would be run next year, when the
current crops of the stations
would be two-year-olds, distance
would be set, and the two
breeders need not designate their
color-bearerS until the day of the
race.
Such races featured the
breeders, the men who were doing
most to foster and improve the
breed Of American thoroughbredS
going to enormous expense in i'm
porting the finest blood of English
and French stud farms.
j. K. G. Lawrence reasoned
that If breeders got such a kick out
of seeing their colts and fillieS
triumphant over those of rival
breeders, that rather than confine
the competitions to two and three

bentrieS, the idea should be made
a sort of jackpot.
So in 1885 Lawrence devised a
race in which brood mares were
to be entered and their offspring
in the year 1886 would do the rae
ing in 1888, when they were two
year-oldS. First nominating fees
were made low, they still are, and
they mount as the race draws
near. For instance it cost C. v.
Whitney $40 to nominate the dam
of Red Rain, $50 more to keep Red
Rain in when he was yearling,
500 to keep him eligible at two,
and if he runs on Saturday an
other thousand dollars as starting
fee.
The first Futurity produced a
pool close to $45,000-in 1929 it
was around $125, ,000-this Satur-
day it will be in the neighborhood
Of 100000. And all but $25, 900 of
that is the money Of breeders and
owners.

Furniture Workers Earn So
Weekly in Canada

Ottawa. (ILNS). Skilled work
ers in the furniture making industry
Of Canada have been getting as low
as So, $4 and $5 week, according to
evidence before the Royal Commits
sion investigating business practices.
The excuse given was that the in
dustry was on the verge of collapse.
But at one time the industry was prof
table enough to facilitate tremen-
dous expansion and over-capital-
ization.
Plants going into liquidation have
been bought up for a song, permitting
sharper competition. In general the
industry has sought to support dead
weight Of overhead by smashing down
wages. It now wants the aid of the
government to enforce codes of fair
competition.

Fogs Form Near Surface
of Earth From Moist Air

Fogs are special type Of cloud
which forms on or near the surface Of
the earth from sudden condensation of
moisture-laden air which carries some
impurity on which the moisture can
condense, says an authority In the Chi
cago Tribune. An ideal condition for
the formation Of fogs exists at the
Banks Of Newfoundland. There the
warm air over the Gulf stream meets
the cold air that accompanies the cold
Arctic current coming past Greenland.
The presence of salt spray in the air
adds the last condition needed for
dense fog.
The infnitesimal drops Of water that
compose a fog vary from two twenty
five hundreds of an inch to one TWEEN
ty-five thousandth OF an inch In diane
ter. Raindrops are much larger, but
never exceed one-fourth of an inch In
diameter. When they tend to grow
larger they are soon forced to break
up as they fall through the air. Rain
drops cannot fall through still air at
a speed greater than "a feet a second.
It Is fortunate for US that the size
and speed OF raindrops are thus nat.
urally limited, or we might be pelted
with buckets Of water falling with the
great speed due TO gravity and the
height Of the cloud above the earth.

Compass OF Vision

1.-THE eyes not only have the power
Of adjustment for distant and near
objects but also have a compass of
vision" DR.. Hyman Cohen explains In
''The Function of Sight," In Hygeia.
When looking straight forward and
without moving the eyes or the head
one can see certain distance upward
and downward, to the right and to the
left. The area In space fronting the
eye when so looking is called the visual
field.
In some species the visual fields
Of the two eyes are distinct; that is
there is one field on each side. In
man, because the eyes are placed for
ward. the visual fields are In front !;
they are two horizontal, egg-shaped
areas with the ends overlapping across
the nose. The sense OF depth and per
spective is given by the overlapping"

Guffey Coal Bill Urged
AS Benefit to Consumers

Washington, D. c. (ILNs)-Henry
Warrum, general counsel of the
United Mine Workers, told senate
interstate commerce subcommittee
that the Guffey coal bill would protect
consumers despite probable wage in
creases.
Warrum quoted government reports
to show the valuable Pittsburgh coal
seam would be exhausted in 100 yeares
and said that on this basis the con
servation features of the Guffey bill
demanded its passage.
Guffey's bill would make the bitum-
nous coal industry a public utility and
divide the country into "a production
districts. Each district would re-
ceiye a yearly production quota.

should be further defined in order to
clarity the legislative purpose and to
guide the execution of the law, thus
profting by what we have already
