Designs New
Racing Craft
London—The famed speedboat
racer, H. Scott-Paine, despite the
severe lickng he took from Gar
Wood in Detroit, has not given up.
The lure of swirling waters still
holds him.
He is now working on a speed
boat for the British Air Ministry
on a design which he calculates
will revolutionize existing theories
of naval architecture.
Although the greatest secrecy is
being maintained, he has revealed
that in many essential respects the
new boat is based largely on the
design of Miss Britain III.
This is the craft he used in his
race against Gar Wood and in which
he recently broke the record for a
single-engined motorboat with a
speed of 100 m. p. h.

Develop Pullets’
Body Before The
Laying Begins
The proper feeding of chicken?
during the period of early develop
ments is of vital importance in
determining their future laying
capacities, so tests at the Branch
Station farms near Willard and
Swannanoa during the past five
years have proved.
"One of the most critical periods
in a bird’s life is that between the
time it goes off the starting mash
and the time iris placed on a laying'
mash diet. The feeding should be
such as to bring the birds to bodily
maturity at approximately the same
time they start laying, and not be
fore,” says Roy S. Dearstyne, head
of the State College Poultry De
partment. "After the birds start
laving, most of their food goes into
egg production and very little, if
any, goes to skeleton growth.
Hence, a bird that starts laying be
fore it has reached full growth is
liable to remain undeveloped and
will seldom have the stamina need
ed by heavy producing hens’’
Dearstyne makes the further
observation that too great an
amount of protein in the food be
fore the laying period is apt to start
the pullets laying too soon An ex
cess of Srbohydrates or a feed oL
ceral chops alone are conducive to
too-early laying A good feed
should have the proteins and carbo
hydrates well balanced
A mash containing 15.1 percent
protein, of which 4 percent was
animal protein, fed along with the
regular scratch feed was found to
give the best results in the experi
ments conducted with Rhode Island
reds and White Leghorns. Fed on
this diet, the birds reached sexual
and physical maturity at approxi
mately the same time
OUTLAW GANG IS TAKEN
Wanted for murders and bank
robberies in the middle west as well
as for prison break in Indiana and a
jail delivery in Ohio, John Dillin
gcr, outlaw chief, and three of his
men walked into a trap of officers
at Tucson, Ariz., last week, and
are held as fugitives. $100,000
bond required for each.

Begin Taking Cardui
Today If You Suffer
Like This Lady Did
"WHEN I was a girl, I began tak
ing Cardui,” writes Mrs. Maggie
Stanfield, of Crandall, Ga. “I was
very irregular for twelve months.
Nothing did me very much good
until my mother began to give me
this medicine. Then I got all
right, stout and well.
"After I was married, I was in
bad health. I began taking Cardui
again. I was troubled with my
back a lot. Was awfully restless.
I could not sleep well. I just
weighed 90 pounds when I began
taking Cardui. I improved rapidly.
Before long I weighed 126 pounds.
I felt fine. I was able to do a
good day’s work.” •
Cardui is sold by druggists here.

Next time you suffer from Gas

Pains; That Tired Feeling, That

Alka-Seltzer
The New Pain-Relieving, Alka
lizing, Effervescent Tablet
Watch it bubble up, then drink
it You will be amazed at the
almost instant relief.
It is called Alka-Seltzer because
it makes a sparkling alkaline
drink, and as it contains an
analgesic (Acetyl-Salicylate) it
first relieves the pain of every
day ailments and then by re
storing the alkaline balance cor
rects the cause when due to
excess acid.
After trying many brands of
medicines—so-called relief for
fas, and all of them a failure,
gave up hopes. By chance I
tried Alka-Seltzer—I am more
than satisfied. Geo. Bennett,

IQN BOARD THE BYRD FLAG
W SHIP, JACOB RUPPERT: Jan.
14 (via Mackay Radio). Ice, water
or air. It’s all the same to Admiral
Byrd! I mean that no matter what
conditions the elements confront us
with, the Admiral has a way of
combatting them.
Take last Thursday, for example.
Op against an almost solid wall of
closely packed ice sheets and not
knowing whether there was open
water beyond to which we might
force this steel ship, without dam
aging her plates in our quest for
a rear water door to Little America,
1 Admiral Byrd decided to find out—
jy the air. And he
:ertainly did just
hat thing!
At 3:30 in the
norning of Janu
iry 11th, he and
rune, Bowlin and
Peterson, took off
n the Condor, in
perfect sunshiny
jFpnthpr frnm
! Capt. Allan Innei
j Taylor, Our Dot
Expert
-Lat. 69.50 South
Long. 152.21 West
and flew for two
i hours to Lat. 71.45 South and re
turn. Part of the time they were up
7,000 feet, scanning the horizon fifty
miles away. And what they saw
1 decided the Admiral in his plans
1 and sent them scurrying back to
; the Jacob Ruppert. As far as they
could see to the South there was
ice, ice, ice, getting heavier and
thicker all the time. No back door
there so we must continue skirting
the pack the long -way around to
our future home—if it is still there
when we arrive. Believe me, this
whole proposition is getting more
interesting, if that’s the word, every
minute. The plane operated perfect
ly, as usual, and so did its fuel and
oil, despite the terrific changes in
temperature they have to endure.
So mark that flight down on your
map in blue pencil. That’s three
now—Dec^21, Jan. 3 and this one.
! When thfS flight started we e
i hot—40 degrees Fahrenheit. A tew
i hours after the Condor returned, we
were in the midst of a swirling
snowstorm the Admiral had spotted
j from the plane when they were
i only 480 miles from Little America
I and we were bundled in our heavy
| coats. The Admiral reported:
"I saw no land. It is pretty safe
to say that no land exists any near
I er than the coastal fronts of King
' Edward VII and Marie Byrd Land.
, There may be, however, a few low
islands, nothing more. It is just
ice-covered ocean.”
On your club map you will notice
there is an enormous gob of undis
covered land indicated by a broken
line from the 117th to the 152nd
meridians. Well, Admiral Byrd’s
three flights along the 117th, 150th
and 152nd meridians tell why it will
never be discovered. It isn’t there!
By the time you read this, the
Admiral, with two or three com
panions, may have made one of
the most dangerous flights in his
tory. He told me about this several
months ago, as a secret. This trip
will be to Little America. There
they may settle down to wait until
the Ruppert or the Bear, or both,
can crush their way in. Or it is
now possible that he may fly back
to the Ruppert. At Little America
1 they will study the terrifying ice
j ridges which Dr. Lincoln Ellsworth
has reported to us as a possible ob
stacle to getting our supplies from
the ships to the base and perhaps
do some exploring in the Condor
or the big Ford trimotored plane,
.left there in 1930, Which they tell
us is all safe and snug—as yet! —
with its big supply of cached gas
oline.
If they land anywhere except at
Little America, with its three wood
en houses and its two 70-foot radio
masts which Ellsworth says are
still standing, the Secqnd Byrd Ant
arctic Expedition may’ spend its en
tirp timp pparnhinp’ fnr Arimiral
Byrd and his two or three fearless
companions. Wouldn’t that be some
thin’? They’re taking three months
supplies of food, in case—
" Commander George Noville tells
me he hopes to make an exploration
trip of 800 miles or more with the
three tractors we’ve brought. More
work for yours truly and more to
write about. I could write ten books

It is complained that people
don’t pay their bills as they ought
to, but they say they would be
glad to do so if someone would lend
or give them the money.
Many sections complain of ex
