DO YOU WANT $500
Easy Way to Get It Suggested
by Sam Berger, Man.
ager of Jeffries.
MERELY STAY a ROUNDS
Novel Way to Get Material for Rough
Work Before Go with
johnson.

Chicago, March 26.-Sam Berger,
manager for James ]. Jeffries, is going
to work the showman's tactics to get
sparring partners for the big bear
when he gets down to hard work. Sam
is In Chicago now looking for human
punching bags for JEFF, but he will
spring new dodge after he gets into
the Santa Cruz camp.
Berger is going to have standing
offer of $500 for any boxer who will
put the gloves on with Jeffries and
stand up before the big fellow for
four full rounds. He expects there
will be many visitors Of big pugs to
the camp and that some OF them Will
be either ambitious or will want the
money badly enough to take chance
for that purse.
You see, JEFF can't engage in any
real battles, according to the articles
of agreement" said Berger. but we
may have some pretty good little
scraps at the training camp that will
be the real thing. Just as soon as
JEFF gets to boxing well we will offer
a purse for any one who will stand
up in front of him for four full rounds
of three minutes each. Any of the
big boxers who have to nerve to make
a try for the purse will get real
fight, and that ought to be a good
training stunt"
Just now Berger is at loss as to
where he can find a couple OF big
husky fellows who can do rough box
ing with Jeffries day in and day out
He has, however, opened negotiations
with one of the cleverest boxers in
the business to help Jeff in his speed
with the gloves. He had talk with
Joe Choynski yesterday, and while no
definite arrangements have been made
there is a chance that Joe will take
the job.
JefY on Another Hunt.
Los Angeles, Cal, March 26.-Highly
pleased with the weight reducing re-
suits of his recent 10 days outing in
the Tehachapi mountains. Jim JEFF
fries left yesterday for another hunt,
going this time to Mount Whitney,
where he will seek to rid himself of
more poundage during the next few
days. Jeffries does not know exactly
what day he will leave to take up per
manent training quarters at Santa
Cruz. He said that he was waiting
for advices from Sam Berger, who is
in the east. He probably will leave
here, however, on March 3d. the day
after he gets back from Mount Whit
ney.

PLANTING POTATO
Farmers Take Advantage OF
Stretch of Fine Weather
and Get Busy.
SOIL is IN FINE CONDITION
While Rain is Greatly Needed, Fear
One Now Would Bring on
Cold Spell.

The sudden advent of springlike
weather has brought about the great
est activity among the farmers almost
ever known. Dat farming is in full
blast, indeed large amount of it will
be completed by the end of the week.
Potatoes are being planted, gardens
made, sod fields plowed, corn stalks
burned, and some farmers have al
ready begun to prepare their ground
for corn.
Everyone remarks that the soil is in
such fine condition, loose and mellow,
reminding one of the conditions last
year. Even the wet places" are work
able. and can be plowed this early.
Some warm rains would be welcome.
but farmers are dreading a rainy spell
just now, thinking it will bring much
cooler weather. Sure it is that the
grass and other vegetation will not
make much growth until there is rain.
Helps the Coal Pile.
The other thing is apparent also,
the small stocks of coal in the cellars
are not being drawn upon like usual
at this time, and many a man who
thought he must buy more coal will
get along without.
A hasty examination of the fruit
trees and vines indicates that the win
ter has wrought considerable damage.
The raspberry and blackberry bushes
show the worst, many of the canes
being killed to the ground, even the
rose bushes are killed in some locali-
ties. The peaches are always killed,
Of course, but this time the trees are
killed also, the old trees being the
worst hurt, though even that is varied,
some localities reporting little or no
damage when sheltered with timber
or otherwise protected. Strawberries
look to be in good condition. The
warm weather of the past few days is
out fruit buds of all kinds,
and a freeze now would be serious;
that is just what happened three years
ago, when nearly all the fruit was
killed.

END SYMPATHETIC STRIKE
Philadelphia Labor Body Expected to
Call 1t OFF Sunday.

Philadelphia, March 26.-Antici-
pating that the Central Labor Union
at its next meeting Sunday will Off
cially call off the sympathetic strike.
which has been in effect here for
three weeks, union workers in most
of the trades still affected by the
general strike order have arranged
to resume work on Monday.
At the Office of the Philadelphia
National League baseball club it was
stated that the ironworkers will re-
sumo operations on the grand stand
and bleachers.
1t is thought that the Central La
Dor Union Sunday will order all the
sympathetic strikers back to work
and request them to render financial
assistance to the car men.
The committee in a statement is
sued last night says that as a result
of the general strike more than 15.-
900 new members have been enrolled
in local unions.

LIVE STOCK AND THE SOIL
Farmer

The maintenance and increase of the
fertility of the soil transcends all other
industrial problems. 1t is possible and
thoroughly practical to greatly increase
the yield of crops through animal hus-
bandry. The average yield of wheat
in England has grown from IL to IA
bushels per acre two centuries ago to
nearly 80 bushels per acre the five
years. 1904-190S, largely by the use of
animal manure, and by the use of
chemical fertilizers and rich imported
feeds. In horses, cattle, sheep and
swine the United Kingdom has the
equivalent of LA cattle per square
mile, while Illinois has 7S.
Great Advantage I'm Rotation.
Fifteen years continuous culture of
crops at the Ohio experiment station
on plots without treatment, on other
plots with manure, tons per acre, and
on still other plots with 42O pounds
per acre of commercial fertilizer, when
compared with the same crops in rota-
ton, but with the same treatment,
show as the average of the five years,
1904-1908, difference of "a bushels of
corn, bushels of oats, and IL bushels
of wheat per acre, in favor of the rota-
ton. There was but little difference
the first few years.
Manure has been reinforced and ap-
piled to silly clay deficient in phos-
phorus and lime. Part of the manure
has been thrown into an open barn

yard during the winter and allowed to
lie exposed to the weather until April.
while another part has accumulated
under the feet of the cattle until the
same time. The cropping has been a
rotation of corn, wheat and clover.
The average of 13 years results shows
that the manure has not been used
with the highest economy until rein
forced with phosphorus. The gypsum
and kainit were found relatively un-
profitable.
Great Increase In 1O-Acre Fields.
In 1894 four old fields of 10 acres
each were set apart for rotation of
corn, oats, wheat and clover, the corn
being grown on clover sod with ma,
nure or fertilizer, the oats following
without treatment, but the wheat re-
ceiving a top dressing after blowing
and before seeding of to 10 tons of
barnyard manure per acre.
In 1908 the system was changed and
8 to 10 tons of stable manure applied
to the corn land in the fall and winter
A ton per acre of quick lime or two
tons of powdered limestone being ap-
piled in the spring and the wheat re-
ceiving $50 pounds of fertilizer con-
tanning about 4 per cent each of nitro
gen and potassium and per cent of
phosphorus. The outcome of this
change has been an increase in the
yield of corn from a previous average
of 42-7 bushels per acre to ona of

In DEADLOCK OVER
THE CASE OF Killing
National Commission Willing to Re-
instate Him, But Cannot Agree
Upon Penalty.

Cincinnati, March 26.-Johnny
Killing, the famous catcher of the Chi
cago Cubs, was not restored to good
standing in baseball yesterday, al
though he had fondly hoped that the
national commission would remove the
stigma that rests upon his baseball
career.
For several hours the members Of
the commission had his application
for reinstatement under consideration
and about the headquarters OF the
baseball kingpins it was rumored that
the clever backstop would be taken
back into the fold, but would have to
pay a heavy penalty. When the COM
adjourned it was announced
that the case had not been disposed
of as the members had not been able
to agree on the penalty to be inflicted.
