Agnew- Stanley Bills Come up at
Public Hearing.

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 27-The codes
committee of the senate and assembly
today began a public hearing of the
Agnew-Stanley bills, which, If en-
acted into law will put stop to bet
ting on races at the tracks IN New
York
District Attorney Jerome is the au-
thor Of the bills and allied with him
in the endeavor to secure their pas
sage are the organized church forces
Of the entire state.
That the race track interests are
seriously alarmed Is evident by the
strenuous efferts they are now max
ing to have the bills killed in commit
tee and prevent their being reported
to the legislature.

O'DAY OPPOSED
ITO SIGNALING

Frank O'Day. the veteran umpire
lifts his voice strenuously against the
proposed plan Of umplres signaling a
strike and balls with their hands, in
stead of calling them as at present.
He says the plan might work all
right with two umpires, but where the
umpire has to watch work on bases,
keep track of the indicator, and an
eye on everything, he would become
hopelessly muddled If he attempted to
signal the spectators.
Umpire O'Day believes there are
other points which need reforming
much more than the plan of ANNOUNCE
ing balls and strikes, and that II the
spectators maintain any degree of
order they can hear the calls plainly.

"A being connected with the Spokane

New York report says of Hogg:
william Hogg will be called upon
to do much more work this year than
IN previous seasons He finished so
strong and good last fall that he is re-
lied upon to make one of the most
valuable pitchers in the team.
Appreciates His Responsibilities
HE fully appreciates the added re-
,sponsibility-in fact, glories IN it, for
he has written that he will be call to
the good" this year and that it will
not be his fault If the team does not
win the pennant:
Hogg is one Of the earnest pitchers
in the business. He oozes pluck from
every pore. He has most puzzling

deliveries no other pitcher has-that

PRIZE TOMATOES.

Livingston, Prizetaker, Perfection and
Paragon do well, says American Agri-
,culturist.
In the same journal Professor r. L.
Watts writes of the tomato industry in
Maryland as follows:
Tomatoes are grown very extensive
ly in Maryland. Thousands of tons
are used by the canning factories, local
markets are well supplied and large
quantity Is shipped to northern mar
kets The industry is most important
In the Eastern Shore counties, but it is
by no means restricted to this section.
Thousands of acres of sandy and grav-
ely loans in different parts Of the
state produce the finest tomatoes. Gil
matte conditions are particularly favor
able for this vegetable. The seasons
are sufficiently long to SOW the seed in
the open ground and have plenty, Of
time for the crop to ripen before severe
frosts occur in the fall Many varie-
ties are grown for canning factories.
The old standard Stone has numerous
friends; the Greater Baltimore, the
heaviest yielder at the Maryland sta
ton, is successful on many FARMS The
X L is well spoken of by many
gardeners, and large number of other
varieties are grown to less extent.

Best Cows Are Cheapest.

The high priced COW is not SO ex-
pensive as she seems in view of what
she produces. The average cow pro-
duces milk or butter to the value of
$3.50, and she costs $51 year, reck-
Oning that the manure she produces
offsets the care given her. This shows
that the cow does not do great deal
toward raising the mortgage on the
farm. Assuming that it costs no more
to keep a good COW than a poor one,
the figures will show that the good
COW is relatively cheaper. The aver
age COW will produce 5000 pounds of
milk year, while a choice COW will
produce as high as 10000. meaning a
profit of 1925 against the almost even
balance sheet of the average cow,
while Pieterje H., Holstein, has a
record of 10000 pounds Of milk a
year, which would make. a profit of
$1.O5O.-Professor Cooley in American
CultivatOr.

MAIDEN BLUSH APPLE. NJ
[The fruit shows effects of apple blotch.l
vaded area being dwarfed by the ac-
ton of the fungus. further growth OF
the apple results in a cracking of the
fruit similar to that produced by the
spple scab fungus. The cracks range
from one-fourth to one inch In length
and frequently extend almost to the
center of the apple.
In extreme cases crack may almost
encircle the apple. practically dividing
1t In half. and one crack may intersect
another, forming a cross. Fruits only
slightly affected with the disease may
go through the season without devel-
Oping cracks. These are more COM
monty developed shortly before the
fruit natures, though few may occur
thus broken. the fruit becomes an easy
prey to other fungi and soon goes
down in decay. AS rule. the affected
fruit drops prematurely, and the un-
sprayed Ben Davis trees left as checks
in the demonstration blocks at Benton
Vile, Ark, shed so per cent of their
crop some days before picking time.
Infection does not begin to take place
until the fruit is nearly half grown.
The blotch was first observed on the
check trees June &c, and only few
affected fruits could be found on that
date. On July 16 large percentage OF
the Ben Davis apples was affected, and
by the middle of August it was clearly
seen that the crop was practically lost.
1t developed first on fruit on the lower
branches and within the shaded por-
tons of the tree, but finally spread to
almost the entire crop.-W. NJ. Scott.

BRONZE GRASS.
It Grows In Dense Ciumps and Spreads
With RaPidity.

II Grows In Dense clumps and Spreads
With Rapidly.
Bromus inermis is perennial grass,
growing in dense clumps and spread
ing rapidly by underground stems or
root stocks.
Land broken this spring and sowed
to cane, Kaffir corn or corn will make
an ideal seed bed for grass next year
by thorough disking and narrowing,
writes western man in Kansas Farm
er. During the first year the grass
makes but little growth above the
ground and should be kept from being
smothered by weeds by clipping with
a mower until the LIST of July, when
the weeds may be let grow for win
ter cover and to catch the snow
Bronze grass starts very early in the
spring, from one to two months before
buffalo grass, and therefore is a great
aid to the cattle and other stock, as it
comes at a time when they need it
most.
It's Dense Root System.
Owing to it's dense root system
bronze grass becomes SOD bound III
from three to five years This can be
remedied by severe disking every
spring after the second year and har-
rowing with a tooth harrow. Owing
to the fact that Bromus secalinus, or
common cheat seed, is often found
mixed with Bromus inermis or sold as
Bromus inermus seed it would be well
for parties contemplating the sowing
Of bronze grass to secure sample Of
the seed and have 1t examined by some
one familiar with the grass No relia-
BILE seed house sends out adulterated
seed knowingly, and it is my opinion
that the trouble frequently arises from
the farmer sowing the grass on land
already infested with cheat

Great Thinq For Fruit Growers.

1t would be a great thing for fruit
growing If the market would distin-
guish sharply between apples for diff
ferent purposes. Apples that are not
recommendable for dessert may still
be very useful for many other pur-
poses. 1t is not so much a question
of not growing apples of different
grades of quality as Of finding the
proper uses for these grades. l think
it is a mistake at the present time
to recommend that certain apples be
not grown merely because they are
not of high eating quality.-L. FL. Bal

Raaaina Grapes.

If ordinary bags are put on before
spores Of the rot fungus have found
lodging upon the berries, the latter will
be as safe inside as they would be il
the bags were soaked in copper solu-
ton. Yet we cannot expect good fruit,
especially of best quality, if the foliage
is not perfect, says an authority on the
subject 1t is just as necessary to pro-
tect the foliage from disease as the
fruit; hence we do not see how bagging
can entirely take the place of spraying.

The Shorthorns.

Perhaps the best claim to the qualifi-
cations of the two purpose breed is
possessed by the Shorthorn. AS is we'll
known, there are two distinct types,
one which is fair in milk production,
but excellent in beef, and another toll
erably good in beef, but valued most
for heavy milking qualities. In this
country the beef type is more COM
mon, while in English dairy sections
the Shorthorn dairy strains are very
