RACE over. RAPIDS
OF NIAGARA FALLS
row in Attempt to Pass Through
Whirlpool Rapids.
(By Union Associated Press.)

Buffalo, N Y, Sept. 16.-In tiny pow
er boats racing through the multuous
waters at the rate of mile a minute,
several men will dare death tomorrow
in an attempt to pass through the
whirlpool rapids of Siagara Falls.
The contest will be the most novel,
and probably the most dangerous, ever
arranged for small craft. The winner
will get $1,000 in cash and $500
cup. 1t will be a great piece of luck
if some of the contestants do not lose
their boats, and the possibility of
fatal termination of the race for some
of the daring entrants is by no means
remote.
The course of the race is from the
Maid of the Mist landing just below
the falls, extending down the rapids
for about five miles, between danger
GUS rocks and eddies of terrible force
to Lewiston. The speed attained by
the boats will be greatly accelerated
by the current, and the little craft
will require the most skillful handling
to escape disaster. In order that it
may not be a drifting match, each
boat will>be required to retrace the
course upstream from Lewiston, so
that it may be definitely proved that
the boats power is in working shape.
All of the boats entered are of the
decked or closed type. Several own
ers of open boats were anxious to
compete, but the committee in charge
decided that the dangers would be too

Army ENGINEERS
To PROBE PLAN
It is Thought That They Will be
Against the Deep Water Projects
to the Gulf.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 16.-Four
army engineers. headed by Chief Blk
hey and Mr.. John A. Bogart, consult
ing hydraulic engineer of New York,
will make another examination into
the Lakes-to-the-Gulf deep water chan
mel project.
The examining board will ask Gov
ernor Deneen of Illinois to appoint
representatives from his to dis
cuss plans with the federal board so
as to arrive at terms on which the ma
ton and the state may cooperate
within the boundaries of Illinois.
A joint session is proposed in Chica-
go.
Subsequently the route of the pro-
jected waterway is to be inspected,
the inspection party to travel via the
Chicago drainage canal, the Desplaines
and the Illinois rivers to ST. Louis, at
which point the possibility of erecting
dams at Jefferson Barracks and Com
merce, Mo. will be investigated.
General Bixbey doubts whether the
dams can be erected. He thinks that
Illinois should pay for the dams. the
federal government to put in the locks
needed for navigation
It is believed that the army engin-
GERS will again report on the feast
bility of the 14-foot channel, but de-
clares that commercially at present
the route is not a necessity, because
of the all-water route from the lakes
to the sea, and new route would not
foster commerce.
The next meeting of the Deep Wa
terway Association will be held in st
Louis November 1926.

REMARKABLE YIELD FROM
CUT-OVER PINE LANDS.

McHenry, Miss, Sept. 16.-One of
the most remarkable yields from raw
cut-over pine lands Is from three and
one-half acre sweet potato patch be-
longing to G. U. Porter, near here.
Mr.. Porter cleared his land in Februa-
ry of this year, planted three and a
half acres in potato draws ninety-siX
days ago, and today dug one-half bush
ell of large potatoes from three hills
He then selected from this half bushel
seven potatoes that weighed four
pounds and two ounces. On this land
was put 100 pounds of commercial
fertilizer per acre, and and the pota-
toes were plowed one time. The pota-
to, cane and corn crops here this year
are almost phenomenal, and it is the
first time that the lands have been
put to a test. Heretofore the public
works, such as sawmilling and naval
stores, have engaged the attention of
the people, but now that these indus
tries are becoming less, the people
are turning their attention to agricul-
ture with remarkable success. Mr..
Porter says his three and half acres
will produce this year 800 bushels of
sweet potatoes, which will sell for rs
cents per bushel

great for such a craft Contestants
must also satisfy the committee that
they are familiar with the course.
The first boat to pass over the
course to be essayed by the motor
boats tomorrow was the old Maid Of
the Mist. The attempt was success
full, but for period of years no one
tried to emulate it. Even to steam
craft, with heavy engines, the course
is a dangerous one and few owners
of such vessels have cared to risk
their property in the venture.

She is weary of play,
And she missed her days hap;
You can tell her by the way
She curls down in the lap
OF her mother that she
Is all in very near,
And the morn's look of glee
Has made way for tear.
.
You must touch her with care,
And take care what you do;
There are snarls in her hair,
There is mud on her shoes;
Her dress is all torn,
And the world is awry,
She is weary and worn
And preparing to cry.
She's preparing to cry.
There's a sob in her throat
And tear in her eye,
And sad little note
In her voice; you can tell
She has romped and has run,
And the day has gone well,
But she's in and all done.
And now comes in her dad
He had best stayed away!
She's no heart to be glad,
She's too wearied for play;
There's look from the eye
OF the mother-that's all
And he tippytoes by
To a room down the hall.
But he tippytoes back
With a pillow, and-Bing!
He hits babe a whack
With the cushiony thing!
And the tear in her eye
Is forgotten, and glad
Is her jump and her cry
And she's off after dad.
There's a rush and a romp
And a squeal and call,
And a jump and a stomp

types of the Spitzenburg, Winesap

which difference is Of shape has any
thing to do with quality.
1t might be thought by some that if
the different types of the same apple
have the same quality, there should
be no difference in price. That may
be but it must be forgotten that it is
not the wish of the grower that settles
the price but demands of the trade.
1t is claimed that what is sometimes
called the ''long winesap" sells for
25c more per box than the one that is
nearly round or fat. These demands
may in some cases be based on whims
but these whims may be as memorable
as those of an old colored auntie of
whom l have heard. She would not
wash without cistern water. When
the water failed in the cistern she
required her old crippled husband to
draw the water out of the we'll and
pun IL lhCO LhO cthO uhOh pump
it out again " cause auntie will have
cistern water - The fruit grower
must learn an old Chinese proverb
that was said to be popular with Gen.
Grant. That proverb runs in this
wise, "Whate'er is, isl and that
means that we must often take things
as they are and not always as they
ought to be.
This thing of selecting the best
strains of the different apples is good
thing and cannot be too highly COM
mended but the idea is not wholly
new one. w.. 2. Stark, president of
the American Nurserymen Associa-
ton and one of the firm of Stark Bros.
Nurseries & Orchards Co., Louisiana,
Mo-, some time since wrote Mr.. Lichty
as follows: "For many years we have
given considerable time and attention
to propagating from select strains,
therefore, it is a pleasure to cooperate
with you. Greater attention must be
given in propagation to produce the
most vigorous and profitable trees and
the highest type in each variety pos
sible. We shall be pleased to hear
more of your plans, and shall also be
glad to have your suggestions which
we can incorporate in our recommends
tions as President Of the American
Association OF Nurserymen. [ have
no doubt but other nurserymen can
say the same, but when all is said
about what has been done, there is
much yet that remains to be accom-
plished and this movement will spur
up to greater diligence in that direc-
ton. AS l have before said l can
commend this movement most heart
lily. There is need of it.
One of the questions that is bound
to come up in connection with this
business of collecting and registering
select strains of fruits is this: Is this
select stock pedigreed? What is
pedigree? A good definition is "a
line of descent" The United Editors
Encyclopedia and Dictionary denfies
this word as follows: ''List or register
containing the line of ancestors from
which a person or family is descend
ed. ?" Other photographers give sub
stantially the same definition. The
