More Information About Stump
Burning.

H. w. Sparks, superintendent OF
demonstration farms for the state
college, offers some good suggestions
in regard to the new method of stump
burning. He states:
"In the removal of stumps from the
logged off land by the charcoaling or
char pitting' method. observe care
fully the following points:
81. Special efforts to get good
burn
2. Seeding to produce sod and
pasture.
3. Arrange the wood and kindling
so as to secure a successful start.
4. Cover the wood and kindling so
as to conserve the first heat with
tight collar around the stump at the
upper end of the wood and kindling.
The collar should be loose at the
bottom in order to admit necessary air.
'5. After successful firing is ac-
complished. give such attention as
will prevent the breaking out of fire,
the burning of the charcoal and the
escape of heat, all of which will cause
the loss of the active agent in the
production of charcoal.
SO. Open up the pit to consume
charcoal when it is not wanted.
81 Advantages: No expense other
than labor, or, no disturbance of

Meeting railroads have announced that
they will sell tickets for one and one
third the regular rates. Those who
attend the convention should in buy
ing their tickets to Aberdeen, get a
certificate from the ticket agent; this
certificate, when presented to the
ticket agent at Aberdeen, entities the
holder to return ticket for one third
the regular fare. From present in
dications the convention will be
lively one. There is decided diff
erence of opinion among good road
advocates as to just what kind Of roads
should be built at the expense of the
state. Some favor on main trunk
lines; others think that the farmer
is the man to be considered, and that
to helpThim he must be given good
roads to and from his farming section;
The automobile man cries for main
trunk roads; the small road is to him
only a secondary consideration. But
there is merit in both arguments, and
the man who wants to see Washington
have good roads should not fail to at
tend the Aberdeen meet. The Good
Roads Association is urging every
editor in the State to boost for
delegation to the convention from his
particular section.

method for removing the stumps,
where conditions are favorable. This
method consists of the application of
the art of charcoal burning to the
stump. AS a preparation of this work
l suggest to those wishing to clear
their land, that better Roadway can
be made by slashing the tract to be
cleared as early as possible after the
foliage is all out, being careful to
bring everything to the ground in
such manner as will produce condi-
lions Favorable to good burn. To
assist in producing this condition,
suggest that the use of little powder

the bark from all the stumps to
facilitate the drying out process, then
firing at such time in the early fall as
to secure the best burn with due re-
gard to safety. eat this time l suggest
the sowing of such grass seeds as seem
to give best results after the fire is out
and the ground is cooled, in the dry
ashes and the soil, where they will re-
main soft until the rains give sufficient
moisture for generation and growth.
This is especially desirable in loose
soils, as the grass in short time will
make sufficient sods to materially
assist in banking and covering the
fires. The grass will also make some
pasture If the clearing is not COM
pleted ready for cultivation during
the first season.

international Matches For Cup to Be
Held Aug. "a and 81.
The English invasion OF polo play
ers will take place during the latter
part of August, and the matches for
IN all probability be played on the
grounds of the Meadowbrook club,
westbury, N. Y The dates suggested
by the Polo Association of America are
Aug. "a and 81, while in the event of
a tie third date will be agreed upon.
This agreement of the Polo association
committee was cabled to Major Green,
manager Of the birmingham club, Full
ham, London, recently, and was in re-
ply to a cable from the birmingham
club asking for positive dates for the
international matches.
The official announcement OF the
dates insures the most interesting polo
contests ever witnessed in the coun-
try. While the visiting team will not
be a thoroughly representative one, it
will comprise several of the strongest
players in the birmingham club, which
is the strongest in England. The team
will consist Of the Earl of Rocksavage.
Lord Wodehouse and the twin broth
ers f. o. and r. n Grenfell, with the
Duke Of ROxburghe as a probable sub
stitute.
The American representatives Will
in all proba bility be the same that
captured the cup st birmingham last
year. The team are members Of the
Meadowbrook club and consist of
Harry Payne Whitney. captain; J. NJ.
and Lawrence Waterbury and Dew
ereaux Milburn. All these players are
IN good form, and little concern is
felt as to the outcome of the matches.
The English team will be under the
management of Captain E. B. Miller,
who replaces Captain Lloyd, who
failed to organize a challenging four
from Nottingham.
There will be three foreign polo
teams here this year. In addition to
the Old Etonians, n team of Irish play
ers Will play a series Of friendly
matches with the eastern clubs and
join tourname that may be open
to them, while E a Gill Of the Rane-
lagh club is to bring a team Of Eng
lish players to take part in the Point
Judith Polo club tournament in Au-
gust, but, as with the Irish team, the
Britishers are only out for sport and
fun.

Each one Of these things once had a
separate and distinct meaning to the
batter or the runner. Jennings Sim
bly, couldn't stand in the coaching box
today without going through his rig
marole. What was once a vital thing
now has become a fixed habit in his
playing life.
Hans Wagner's motions on first base
when he seems to be doing the Eek
tension" as gymnastic dancers call 1t,
meant something once. He either
wanted the batter to bunt or to let
the first one go by. Now Hans uses
it without noticing. 1t has grown to
be part of him.

POINTERS FOR BUYER OF AN AUTO

can make a car unsatisfactory. 1t is
the wise maker who proves thoroughly
the worth of each feature before in
cooperating it in the product offered
the public.
The public has a right to know and
demand proof of the actual and com
parative worth of a car.
The results of rigid contests auto
matically grade cars and prove their
worth. The history of a car-what 1t
has done-is the surest basis for deter
mining what it can be depended upon
to do.
Strenuous contests are telling cri-
terion. as keeping constantly at it is
what shows up the weakness of ma
chinery.
Various kinds of contests have their
peculiar value. which is good so long
as the results can demonstrate in a
practical way what the buyer of a
car. the man who puts up his money
to support the industry, wants to
know.
Results are guideposts not only in
the buying Of motorcar. but results
reveal the foundation upon which an
industry and the special brands must
stand. II will be taken for granted
that all contemplating buying are in
terested to know that the gui6eposts
tell what they want to know.
There are three classes of cars
speed, hill climbing and durability. The
class that appeals to you most must
be guided by its past history in the
different classes.
