BOWLING
FIVE TEAMS TIED IN WOOSTER TOURNAMENT.
  Bostwick Failed Last Night to Down the Required Number s5z-s. of Pins.

Five teams are now tied for first place in the Two-Ma tournament at the Wooster alleys. The teams are Bostwick and Kilburn, Malsch and Olson, Jaeger and Elton, Beardsley brothers and A. Gross and Dubuc. Bostwick and Kilburn had a lead of one game until last night when Bost- wick rolled his three strings of a match which Cook place last week when he was absent. In order to win the series it was necessary for him to roll 654, but he fell more than 1O0 points short, getting 547 for the three strings. Each of the five teams now tied have won five games and lost three. The ties will probably be rolled of by the end of the present week.

Business Men Must Helm.

It is idle to speak of the farmer
alone being able to solve the economic
problem of the south. Let the southern
merchant banker and fnancier pro-
vide the warehouses in cooperation
with the farmer, help him to borrow
sufficient money to meet his present
Obligations, put the cotton in this ware
house, organize this warehouse into
holding companies throughout the
south, have the farmers to give to this
holding company the power of attor-
ney to sell this cotton, let the price be
fixed below which 1t is not to be sold,
says E. D. Smith, president South Car
olina Davision Southern Cotton Asso-
citation. Then he continues: Let sam.
pies be taken and placed where the
buyers of the world can have access to
them, and where these buyers may be
able to place their orders, and thus be
able to dictate prices at which we will
supply the world. Should there be
surplus, from every business stand
point the south should own and carry
this surplus, because the moment that
it passes into the hands of the con-
sumer it becomes means by which
he can withdraw from the market and
be enabled to bear the prices Of the
next crop.

article written by ]. G. McAuliffe. Ha-
rem, Ca, upon burr clover In South
Georgia:
''In the southern portion of the state
burr clover promises to be a great
crop. In Way ne county it is grown in
big fields, and many farmers are afraid
it will take the country. One farmer OF
my acquaintance down there drove me
out to his farm last November while l
was stopping in the little town of Jes-
sup. and he showed me field Of forty

stumps and sowed to burr clover. It
was then two feet deep all over the
place. and hogs and cattle were doing
all they could to destroy it. The
farmers for many farms around gath.

to Keep on farming. In every little
corner that was not closely cultivated
the burr clover showed itself in fine
shape. I told them to plant more Of It
and buy cattle That was good way

them.

The Southern siIo.

After your silo is built what are
you going to put into it?
I suppose corn will stand first, and
sorghum next, writes Charles M. Con-
nor, vice-director of the Florida agri-
cultural experiment station, Lake City,
Fla. Corn is first, because it can be
grown SO universally and is liked by
nearly all the farm animals. Also other
crops, such as cowpeas, velvet beans
and like crops can be grown with the
corn, thus making a more nearly bal
anced ration, and also increasing the
yield per acre. have used velvet
beans alone and made very good sil-
age out of them, but the silage is
black. The velvet bean vines are usu-
ally much tangled, consequently 1t Is
expensive to get them to the machine.
They have q tendency to clog up the
cutter; this, however, may have been
due to the make Of the machine, rath-
er than to the fault Of the bean vines.
Beggar weed makes fairly good en-
silage, but it makes SO much better
hay. that one hesitates to put it in the
silo."

Are You Going to Make soap7

As soap-making time on the farms
Is at hand, I will give the best recipe
I know for good, hard soap: Take
five pounds of grease, one quart and
one cup of cold water, one can of pot
ash, one heaping teaspoonful of borax.
two tablespoonfuls Of ammonia. Dis.
solve the potash in the water. then add
the borax and ammonia, and stir In the
lukewarm grease slowly, and continue
to stir until it becomes as thick as
honey; then pour into pan to harden.
When firm cut into cakes. Grease
that Is no longer fit to fry in is used
for this soap. Strain it carefully that
no particles of food are left in 1t. It
makes no difference how brown the
grease is, the soap will become white
and float in water. 1t should be kept
a month before using.-Cor. Progres'

FARMER AND PLANTER
A SOUTH cARoLlN,lAN,s WAY.
BY Combining a Dairy With His Farm
He Secures Valuable Food for
His Crops.

J. r. Baker, a farmer near Ker-
shaw, S. c., has small dairy in con
nection with his farm. He milks six.
teen te twenty cows and runs an
Lighthouse farm. In his work there
are two things worthy of notice:
Last year on thirty-four acres he
made tcrty-two bales of cotton.
Without the aid of cattle he could
not have made such a crop of cotton.
Raising small grain and forage for
his cattle and mules improves his
land and makes it rich in humus. The
manure from his cattle and farm ami
mails adds to the productiveness Of
the soil at lightest expense.
The second thing worthy of notice
Is that MIR. Baker employs white Ia
boz. He seems to prefer II, and this
plan is worthy of consideration. In
this county it is difficult to hire young
white men to work on the farm.
Stores, offices and cotton mills attract
them. They cannot clear more, but
they like town life better than the
loneliness of the farm. It would be
difficult to hire a half dozen strong,
willing white boys eighteen to twenty
one years old at $12 to $14 month
to work whole year on the farm.
White men cannot be hired. I'M
migrants capable of doing farm work
will come slowly. II localities where
there are few negroes large land
owners should sell small farms to
young white men on time and induce
them to stay in the country. In coun-
ties where there are negroes, they
should be hired unless they have
first-class stock and are good tenants.
Good houses should be built and they
should be encouraged to have gar
den, truck patch and COW. They
should be instructed as to their work
SO that they will go at it intelligently.
If contract is made for a term OF
years it will be better, both for land
lord and laborers. Teach them the
difference between working their
own half-starved mule and a strong.
lively animal, owned by the employ
err Hiring hands the year round
including all wet weather, is most
satisfactory. Next to that is employ
ing hands to work for half the crop.
In that way the landlord can keep up
his lard and control the planting and
gathering of the crop.-Charles Petty.

How to KIN the Cotton Moth.

The proper name of the insect that is
eating the leaves of the cotton plant
in Arkansas is aletia argillacea, which
is a hrownish moth. its four wings
crossed with wavy lines of dark color
and marked with a blush discal spot
and two white dots. It can easily be
destroyed by the use of poisons, not
injuring the cotton nor the person who
applies the poison. Use one pound of
Paris green to every acre of cotton,
mixing ten pounds of common flour to
one pound of the Paris green. Mix well
the flour and Paris green, divide into
two equal parts, put In thin domestic
sacks, tie each sack to end of four

flour on two rows at once going, and
the worm-eating moths will take their
last supper from your cotton plant.
