DALLAS PERSONALS The tail-end of one of the bit terest industrial fights in Amerf ;an. business history, is uaobtru cively announced by the advertia. ing of a new phosphatic baking powder under the familiar name of "Dr. Price." There were two kinds of baking powder, the phosphatic and the cream of tartar bases. The latter was high priced; it was the foun dation for the Royal, the Drr Price's, the Cleveland, all which companies finally joined to form the "trust," and some others claimed directly or indirectly tc be cream of tartar products. ' The trust made a furious fight. against the cheaper products. It I took the form of a legal persecu tion, with strong suggestions of cash-inspired action. In the T'": ghboring state of Idaho, i the in roads of a western phosphate Dur ing powder brought about an of ficial scandal that lost ono h'" up official his head, and the phos ph",ors won a Eweepling victory. The cheaper powders have made continued inroads into the busi ness of the high-priced cream ot tartar products that have reso lutely refused either to change their formula or thep prices un til this last move. But they couldn't stand it for ever. The marketing of a Dr. Price's Phosphatic Baking Pow der," is the white flag of uncon ditional surrender. Chemical tests have never been able to prove that the higher priced leav ening was the better, or safer for health and there certainly was a nuge difference in the cost. When the trust was formed, the trade mark "Royal" vraa valued at a million dollars, a letter. It still has a great market value but if a Royal phosphate baking powder were to be shoved on to the mar ket within the' next little while, to give the lie to the impassioned literature for more than 40 years, it would be no great surprise. There was a day, 35 years a?o, when the baking powders were the best national advertisers in Amer ica. They have kept more country newspapers from bankruDtcv than any other single business. They don t do it now. Loganberry harvest was finish ed last week at the Springer yard and at the Sneed & McKenney yard. Several of the farmers have their threshing done. Mr. and Mrs. J. H.

A new sea son's paring record for one mile was established here today when Single G equalled his mark of J:Cy. made in Atlanta last fall The record was made in an at tempt by Si$g G to lower his season's record of two minutes. Single Q, driven by-Ed Allen, Indianapolis, went the first quar ter in 29 H seconds, the half in 5Uij seconds, the three-quarters in 1:29 and the last quarter In 29-4 seconds. With six races In cluding one heat of the 2:10 pace unfinished yesterday on the card the races were decided on the two in three heat plan to complete the program today. Hal Malic ne Winn The fr?e-for-all pace, the fea ture of the get-away card, weut to Hal Mahone, the favorite. Sanardo was forced to pace the last quarter in 2 seconds to win the first heat which furnished the mo3t spectacular finish of the meeting. Pop Geers set the -pace wun hanardo ' throughout and barely lasted to beat the fast com ing Hal Malone. hanardo again set a terrific pace in the second heat but had nothing in reserve when chal lengea by Hal Malone in the strt;tch and was beaten a leneth The third heat was practically a repetition or tne second. Cox and Murphy Succeed Walter Cox and Tom Murnhr. each drove their fourth winners of' the meeting. Cox Was behind Hil da Fletcher, which took the 2:18 trot and Murphy drove Carmeleta Hail to victory in the 2:12 trot. W. A. Collins of Penetanguishene, Canada, owner of Lucy L. was sus pended by the Judges for 30 days! touay ior alleged improper driv ing of the mare in the first heat: of the 2:10 pace yesterday.
