THE SPORTING WORLD HINTS FOR FARMERS
The Canada Thistle.

Canada thistles are not eradIcated by
the ordinary system OF cultivation that
Is applied TO corn. says the Homestead.
They may be cut OF three or four
times. but there ls an opportunity IN
the fall for the thlstles 10 make CON
siderable growth. and during this time
the root system strengthens so that
they are ready for business Just as
strong as ever the following year.
There is little danger OF scattering the
thisties by ordinary culture methods.
Where sheep can be kept this Is pos
sibly the most inexpensive way OF get
ting rid OF thistles. because IL Is "A
well known fact that they are con-
sumed readily by sheep. or course It
must be borne IN mind that where pas
lures are good sheep VIII not eat this

kinds OF plants. but when pastures dry

Advantaaes u DRAINING sell.

Concerning the subject OF drainage.
we must not fall 10 notice some OF the
incidental advantages II Affords the
farmer In the FIRST place. IL length
ems the season. because drained ground
dries and warns so much earlier In
the spring II lessons the cost Of pro-
duction. because the farmer can do his
work more nearly when II ought 10 be
done. He can keep ahead OF the weeds
and be master or the situation. IL
obviates the injury TO our fields by
tramping by stock when wet II pre-
vents injury 10 our crops by heaving
OF the ground by frost and by its
cracking open in drying. IL does away.

Although record books dispute the
triple play made by Paul Hines OF the
Providence club IN a game with the
Bostons IN Providence, II. l., May g.
1878. there IS no doubt IN view OF the
evidence OF eyewitnesses like L. III.
Murnane. George Wright and Jack
Manning who were players in the
game, that Hines made the play. The
play was so extraordinary that the
Official scorer failed 70 record Il prop
eriy. and that fact led the late Henry
Chadwick 70 dispute II. The bases
were fun az the time. and. with the
infelders playing I'm. the Boston bats
man hit Texas Lacquer which every
one. including the base runners. felt
sure was safe The men on third and
second ran boue. and the man on first
was almost down 10 third when Hines
made n woRderfui catch. He ran 10
third and by fosiching the base doubled
up the two runners who had gone
home. There the real play ended, but
Sweeney of Providence. seeing a base
runner trying 20 get back TO second.
called 70 Hines 20 throw 10 him. and
this fact led 20 the confusion OF the
official scorer u was OF course wholly
unnecessary to throw 20 Sweeney.
