FAMOUS AUTO DRIVER
K.l ED ON ATLANTA TRACK
The remains of A1 Livingstone,
one of the great auto drivers of
America, are awaiting funeral
arrangements. The end of the
career of this noted driver came
T, la;,"’afternoon, when, be for ■
th< eyes of his sister. Miss Ma
|)le Livingston, and his wife, he
was hurled into the air from his
Natio a' racing car and dr shed to
the track on the Atlanta Speed
way, where he was picked up by
his teammates, his head crushed
and in an unconscious state, death
resulting several hours later. Ho
v. us going Ho miles an hour whe i
a tire hurst, throwing him 2<>
feet in the air.
A spirit of friendly rivalry be
tween Livington and his team
mates had existed ever since
their arrival at the Speedway af
ter the noon meal Tuesday, and
it was largely due to this rivalry
that the “Dirt Track King,’’
a name which Livingston had
won for his daring feats on road
cour s and speedways, attempt
ed to better the best time made
dur y the afternoon's practice.

that they take no thought of the
great possibilities of perfect living in
the country.
MONEY IN SEED GROWING.
Enormous Increase In Quantity Pro
duced For Commercial Purposes.
According to Joseph A. Arnold of j
the t’ulted States department of agri
culture, there is profit in raising high
grade seed. Seed crops of sweet coin,
garden peas and beans of good quality
are in ever increasing demand, and
the quantity needed yearly lias be
come so large that the seedsman is
obliged to have the major portion of j
his slock grown for him by others. J
Within the past few years there has.
been an enormous increase in the j
quantity of seeds produced for com- j
men ial purposes. This has been due |
in large measure to the development
of seed growing and handling as a
business. There are now nearly a
thousand seed firms doing business in
the Fnited States. One of the largest
of these uses buildings with an aggre
gate door space ut more than sixteen
acres. This space is much larger than
was occupied by the entire seed trade
of the country only fifty years ago.
The quality also has vastly improved.
One of the most encouraging (level- j
optneuts in the growing of ganley veg
elnbles is the increasing recognition id
tlie practical importance of using pure
and uniform stocks of seed vv hose va
rietal characteristics adapt them to ;
distinct local conditions and market
requirements. Another consideration ;
is the fact that the growing of seed
crops of these vegetables can be un j ;
dertaken without any radical change ■[
in farm practice or material in- reuse ;
iu farm equipment. These conditions |
make this industry well worth the at
tentkm of farmers who are located
where soil and climatic conditions un
favorable for the best development ol
such seeds.
However, tlie raising of these vege
tables for seed crops Is not i-oeoin
metided for all eiivutnstan.es even
w lieu soil and climate are suitable jl
The farmer w ho contemplates under
taking seed crop farming will do well
to'consider thoroughly the many ele
ments which cuter into profits. Seeds
men are often aide to place contracts
for growing seed at very lon prices,
even lower than that at which grain
of tlie species cun Ik* sold on the mar
ket. Such a condition might be due to •
any of several causes, but usually
rests on au overstipply or a demand
for Hit Inferior product. The general 1
tendency uow. however, is decidedly
in the other direction, and both se,*!
dealers and seed growers can do much
by eo-o|a-ration to further this tend
ency.
