Champion Swimmers to Meet
Today In Boston.
Series OF Three Races for One
Mile I'm Charles River.
RECORD TO BE BROKEN

Series Of Winning Records.

Boston, Aug 13.-Ioey Nuttall the
worlds champion swimmer. who arriv-
ed in Boston few weeks ago on his
way to the St Louis fair. has post
poned his visit there since he managed
to get on a match race with James Nc
Cusker, the American champion The
Lowell swimmer has always maintain
ed that he was stale when he met Nut
tan for the championship some years
ago. as he had just taken part and won
n hard race previously. For that rea-
son he has sought a second match.
In this his desire is to be gratified,
for after some weeks of haggling over
details match was arranged to be
held in the Charles river at West Rox-
bury Saturday afternoon The Ameri-
can swimmer is better at long dis
tances than in sprints. and he was
holding out for a fve-mile race Rather
than not get on a match he accepted
Nuttalrs terms, which was for series
of three races, all one mile or less IN
length
That NuttaH is the peer of any swim
mer on the other side of the Atlantic
there is not the slightest doubt Ever
since he started his career he began
lowering records year after year. he
was only II when he won his nrst
fessional in 1883 his first race was for
the 1000-yard championship challenge
cup. In that race he met several noted
swimmers, and not only defeated them.
but made new records for various dis
tances throughout the race.
Nuttall has always been ready to de-
fend his title against all ocmeKS to Eng
land When Cavill, the Australian
champion, went there he found Nuttan
too fast for him. Many of the existing
records today were made by Nuttall in
match races or in attempts to lower
previous records made by himself.

Spruce nnh Pine

1t has been found by the Danish
Heather improvement society that in
planting trees on barren, sandy coast
stretches spruce will make an excellent
growth on these waste areas in the
immediate vicinity of mountain pine,
even if the soil is practically free from
food materials. The root system of
the spruce trees has only poor de-
velOpment to the side where there is
no mountain pine while to the side
where such a tree stands a strong root
system is developed that intertwines
with the roots of the pine, often COM
ing in immediate contact with these.
There appears to exist a relation be-
tween these two kinds of trees which
is of benefit to- both. If the pine is
cut down while the spruce is still
young, the latter will die or make a
sickly growth. If, on the other hand,
it is not cut until after several years,
the spruce will not only survive, but
appears to grow faster than would
have beer the case if the pine had been
left standing.

medicinal and drug plants. The plants

In the field and includes in this exhibit
the most valuable member and one of
the most worthless from the farmers
standpOint-namely, corn and couch
grass, the cornstarch and silk fur
nished by the former being used in
medicine, and the running rootstock of
the latter, a source of much trouble to
the farmer, also possessing medicinal
properties.
Golden seal, a native plant for the
root of which a great demand exists
and which brings a good price, will
also be found here as well as another
plant which has caused a furry in the
market on account of short supply
namely, the Cascara sagrada tree, the

Soft Corn In Beef Making.

Having investigated the feeding
value of soft corn in beef production
the Iowa experiment station arrived at
the following among other conclu-
SiOnS:
That soft corn grown on the college
farm in 1902 and containing 81 per
cent of moisture at the beginning of
the test, pound for pound, on a water
free or dry matter basis, was fully
equal in feeding value to mature corn
grown in 1900 when used for fattening
cattle.
That cattle fed on such soft cofn
made nearly as heavy gains and finish
ed equally as well as those fed on md
ture corn grown in 1900.
That when soft corn similar to that
used in this test could be purchased for
80 cents per bushel, the prevailing mar
ket price, gains on fattening cattle
could be made at cost of 3.O3 cents
per pound less than when mature
corn, costing 80 cents per bushel the
prevailing market price, was fed un-
der similar conditions.
