County option is BETTER THAN

FIGHTING A BRUTAL GAME"
Nothing in Common with the College

Nothing In Common with the College
Sport, a X. U. Professor Says.
Lawrence, Kan, July l6.-Dr James
Naismith professor of physical educa
ton in the University of Kansas, and
director of gymnastics, said today that
lie saw absolutely noting to uphold
in pugilism. He li'Seued prize figuting
to cock fighting and bull lighting, and
said that any comparison OF such a
sport to college athletics was made
ignorance. In view of the fact that
Professor Maurice parmlee of the de.
partment of sociology and economics
recently pointed out the physical ben.
etits of pugilism, the statement of Doc.
tor Naismith can only be taken In
direct refutation of what the professor
of sociology said.
"Pugilsm has nothing in common
with football or any of the college
sports" declared Doctor Naismith.
for in these any injury to the play
ers is incidental and not a necessary
part of the sport. Pugilism, however,
should be classed with cock fighting,
bear batting and bull fighting, for the
common aim is to 50 injure the com.
Blatant that he is unable to carry on
the contest.
"The aim of pugilism and the great
desire of every pugilist is to be able
to deal such blow to an opponet that
he will be rendered unconscious. This
often results in conclusion of the
hVpip aud IL nv. n q min in
jury. This is shown by the statements
of fighters, who assert that a man
who has once been knocked out IS
never the same fighter again
ut is hard to see how a contest en-.

of any benefit to the individual or

and each had to destroy the other or

our commercial life. is the square
deal for every man"
Doctor Naismith then pointed out
that it was pretty hard to see how a
man is to get any kind of a square
deaI' if another is willing to knock
him unconscious in order to obtain
the big end of purse. He said that
it was impossible to eliminate these
evils so long as there is money at
stake.
"A comparison between such a sport
and college athletics must surely be
made in jest or in ignorance" he add
ed, for the whole aim of the students
and the faculty of the university is to
do away with just such evils from our
college athletics"

ARMY WORMS ALARM FARMERS
Doing Much Damage to Crops in vi.
cinity of WatertoWn.

WATERFOWL. S. d., July 16.-The APP
pearce of vast hordes of army worms
in Deuel. county is causing by far more
crop alarm than the dry weather.
Practically every acre of timothy in
the county is said to be ruined and
the pest is beginning to work on the
wheat fields. Sections of Hamln and
Clark counties also are reported at.
tackled by this crop destroyer.
Farmers in Deuel. county were at
loss to account for the loss of their
timothy until one discovered the vast
number of worms, and sent specimens
to Professor SEVERN, entomologist of
the state agricultural college at Brook.
ings. Here they were recognized at
once, and most vigorous measures
were taken to protect the remaining
fields.
Thousands of circulars have been
issued giving instructions how to pro.
tect fields not yet ravaged by the
pest. These circulars have been now
placed in the hands of every farmer
as far as possible, and the plan Is to
have every farmer in each of several
counties adjoining those affected thor.
oughly acquainted with the best way
to fight the worms.
Professor SEVERN advises blowing
two or three parallel burrows around
the fields not yet destroyed, turning
the dirt in the direction the advance
of the worms is expected. In these
burrows dig postholes every fifteen
feet, and six inches deep. In it's for.
ward march the worm will not climb
the vertical side of the furrow until
it first moves literally in search of
an easier way. In the lateral move
ment it will fall into the holes, where
it may be easily killed by crushing or
by a dash of kerosene.
The worms will destroy a field OF
wheat in few hours and move to the
next field in regular formation, habit
from which they derive their name.

HERE'S A HOT WEATHER MENU.
Prof. Ellen II. Richards of Boston, Ad.
vised Against Meat Diet.


Boston, July 16.-Those Bostonese
who can are sitting in the Atlantic
ocean these days to keep cool. AS for
the rest, here are the instruction of
Prof Ellen H. Richards of the chair
of sanitary chemistry at the Massa,
chusetts Institute of Technology, the
only woman Instructor on the staff:
Eat as little as you can, just bare
ly enough to keep you going.
Keep as quiet as possible.
Don't drink too much at meals.
Use ice water freely, but put your
hands in it instead of putting it into
your mouth.
Eat no meat, no sugar, little fat.
Eat vegetables, fruit and especially
bread and milk"
Good milk and bread-you can't
finding anything better to eat on these
roasting days" Mrs. Richards explain
ed, you don't want to eat sugar and
sweet things, because they give you
heat so quickly. Alcohol gets into
circulation in two or three minutes af.
ter you drink it, and sugar in about
five minutes. Starch takes a half or
three-quarters of an hour to get into
circulation, so after you eat starchy
foods you have time enough to cool
off before they get into the blood.
"Cut down your eating about two
thirds. Yes, l really mean this-eat
about two-thirds less than you eat
in cooler weather. What we eat for
any way, in large measure is to keep
warm. When the temperature is at
60 degrees, we need to eat enough
to keep the temperature of our bodies
at 90 degrees. But when the outside
temperature is 90 degrees, need eat
only enough to make up the remaining
eight degrees. Eat just as little as
you can. Fruit, that is good fruit
not decayed in the least-is splendid
for the hot weather menu, and there
is delightful variety of fruits in the
market at present.
Don't eat meat Or, if you feel
that you can't get along without it,
eat light meat such as veal or chick
en-. Cheese, you will find, is better
than meat these hot days and Just as
satisfying.
Iced drinks are not harmful, if you
take them in moderation. Be sure not
to drink too much iced stuff at meals
And don't drink it too fast.
"Put your hands In ice water in
stead of drinking it. You will find
this much more refreshing than TAX
ing 1t into the mouth. Keep as quiet
as possible in hot weather and try
this hand and wrist cooler. You will
be astonished to find how comfortable
you get through the sultriest hours.
ell tell you some other dishes that
eat in these warm days. For the
breakfast the bowl of bread and milk
does nicely. Then, for lunch, say
two bananas, with a roll and butter
and little cheese. Since a banana
is rather tasteless, squeeze the Juice
of a lemon over 1t. This makes an
extremely refreshing dish. Bananas
by the way, are both cheap and highly
nutritious. The food value of bananas
is like that of potatoes. For the third
meal of the day-the hot meal which
almost everyone wants at least once
in twenty-four hours-try cooked vege
tables. For instance had sweet po
