ITALY BUILDING PLANE OSQUITOPESTIS NEARING SOLLTION Dasting Metbod May Do Away| With Ingects ‘Washington, July 21 (A—Hope for eventual extermination of the malaria spreading mosquito and his less dangerous, but pesky brethren is seen by Public Health Scrvice authorities in recent results of air- plane dusting experiments in swamp arcas near Ramburg, S C. These experiments have demon- strated the value of the airplanc in spreading paris green over large marshes and swamps where drain- ge or other methods of cradicu- tion are impracticable. Navy pl with dusting equipment were flown over the South Carolina swamps releasing the poisonous powder over the mosquitoes’ breeding places. At least 90 per cent of the larvae, the investigators estimated, | were killed. | The effectivencss of paris L:ru‘l\\ Be Propelled By 6,000 Horscpower Engines.

ROB ROY MOURNS as a weapon against mosquitoes depends on several facts discover- ed by the scientists working on the problem. The larvae, deposited in stagnant water b the inseets, come to the ce and turn on their sides to obtain food and air. It is therefore irable that the poison used to kill them will flot Paris green, which contains ars nic, will stay dry and rex the surface of water at lc hours. In that time the lar be expected to come to th least once and are almost certain | to receive a death dealing dosec. The method is just as effective against salt marsh mosquitoes against the malari spreading riety, and by repeating the tr ment over a period of years the au- thorities beliove that a nearly 100 per cent destruction can tained. {Disappointed When Presiden Does Not Take Him Superior, Wis., July 21 (®—To b left behind by one's best friend i tough, but when the pal who desert . can |YOU happens to he the president o top Rob Roy's eyes said that and mor trip. as g | VA= heen inseparabl t the camp, joyed taking /in the canoe since their arriva nd the president en. together on the river, soon began to act as though h prac her conditions on the American ! that within scheduled service across the South | Within 25 miles of a fish market for | WHENLEFT BEHIND at |the United States, it is just too much. as President Coolidge stepped from his cance after a morning's fishing | e collie and Mr. Coolidge had | the beantiful white dog with him while fishing. be at- Morning and afternoon found them but the dog 10 60 875 MILES AN HOUR! ] Will Carry 30 Passengers and Wil July 21 UP—Tualy is capable of 5! r e when he arrived on id, will carry elled o c | Mayor Paonessa insiats he and his | cnthusiast.

A car capable of this abnorm- al sustained speed and relent- less tax upon its every part, es- tablishes its value with finality. Breaking these records is inci- dental. But giving buyers a true meas- ure of a car'’s endurance, and what they can expect in long life, continual service, and abil- ity to stand up, is all important.
