Mountains
(of Butterfat)

FINE
CREAM
THE MOUNTAIN
Hundreds of thousands of farmers daily have butterfat to
sell. In the counties, even the states, where most is pro
duced, there is surplus. This surplus must be sold to faraway
consumers in the cities.
MANUFACTURE
Swift & Company, with its more than 100 produce plants
and many buying stations, buys for cash. The next step is
processing in a modern churn. Swift makes the Anest grades
of butter and packs them in attractive style.
TRANSPORTATION
Then distribution. Butter often rides a thousand miles to
reach a purchaser. Swift & Company ships in carload lots to
a nation-wide market, in which thousands of salesmen dig
up and foster demand.

J the Lesson - Sermon In all
Churches of Christ, Scientist, on
Sunday, Sept 10.
Among the citations which com
prised the Lesson-Sermon was the
following from the Bible: “Every
good gift and every perfect gift ia
from above, and cometh down from
the Father of lights, with whom
is no variableness, neither shadow
of turning” (Jas. 1: 17).
The Lesson-Sermon also includ
ed the following correlative pas
sages from the Christian Science
textbook, "Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures", by
Mary Baker Eddy: “Spirit is the
life, substance, and continuity of
all things. . . . The substance. Life,
Intelligence, Truth, and Love,
which constitute Deity, are re
flected by His creation; and when
we subordinate the false testimony
of the corporeal senses to the
facts of Science, we shall see this
true likeness and reflection every
where” (pp. 124, 516).
LOCAL THFATRE WILL SHOW
ELGIN NATIONAL ROAD RACES.
A sound picture of the Elgin Na
tional Road Races will be shown at
the Oasis threatre on Friday, Satur-
day and Sunday, under the auspices
of the Rohrman Motor Company.
According to A. F. Rohrman, this
picture is a real thriller. The race
was held over an 8-mile course with
innumerable sharp turns and curves.
The following was taken from an
Illinois newspaper:
DETROIT, Michigan—All previ
ous records for the famous Elgin
National Road Race were shattered
when a Ford V-8 won the Joseph
Weiden hoff Trophy Race for stock
cars of American manufacture in
the 203-mile grind at Elgin, Ill.,
last Saturday. The race was con
ducted under the rules of the Con
test Board of the American Automo
bile Association and was sanctioned
by that organization.
The winning Ford V-8, piloted by
Fred Frame, Indianapolis Speedway
champion last year, lowered the
mark set in 1920, in the last pre
vious running of the race, by Ralph
DePalma, famous race driver, in a
high-powered racing car. Frame’s
average speed was 80.22 miles per
hour. DePalma’s record was 79.5
miles per hour. The Ford V-8 ne
gotiated the 203-mile course in 2
hours, 3 2 minutes, 6.1 seconds.
Fifteen cars were entered, Includ
ing Fords, Chevrolets, a Plymouth
and a Dodge. Fords took the first
seven places in the event. The Ply
mouth finished in eighth place. The
other cars either were forced out of
the race by mechanical failures or
were flagged when the race was de
clared finished.
The highly consistent performance
of the Ford V-8 cars finishing in
the stock car race is revealed by
the race records. The difference in
elapsed time for the race between
the first and seventh Fords to finish
was only 6 minutes, 35.6 seconds
and the difference in their average
speeds for the course only 3.33
miles per hour.
