Delaware's Team Returns From Chicaoo
Compete. With Large Institution.

The Della team that took part IN
the Intercollegiate Dairy Judging Con.
test at the National Dairy Show in
Chicago. returned Monday morning.
The following ten teams competed and
Won in the order named. Kentucky. Ohio,
Soutl! Dakota, Nebra ska, Maryland, Kan

York.
It viii be seen from this that Delaw
va, next to the last, defeating only Cor.
nell Last year Cornell had the winning
team. and this year she was last. Last
year kentucky WAS last. and this year
had the winning team with a total score
of 3,S+9 out of a possible 500. The highest
individual score was made by member
of the South Dakota team, whose total
score was l,31l out of possible 1000.
tn" first five teams were very close to-
gether. and the competition among the
last i've teams was also very close. Ken
tucky as the winning team, won most of
the prizes. which took the form of tro-
phies. The sweepstakes man from South

BEST TYPE OF BETS

The following is by Prof. W. II.
Olin in The American Sugar

When the sugar beet industry
became an important one in Colo
RADIO, the farmer felt that this crop
could and should be grown much
like other root crops-for tonnage
and size, Sugar beets We Ching
from II to Ii pounds were not I'M
common and many of our best
sugar beet farmers felt that it was
working hardship and none
tary loss on them when field sup
erintendents urged closer thinning
and the growing of smaller beets.
This year. 1910, all the sixteen
Colorado factories adopted the
sliding scale, paying for the beets
according to the sugar content.
While come farmers objected and
others even planted other crops in
preference TO sugar beets, the farm.
ers who grew the crop found that
this method of remunerati II gave
them an equitable return for good
farming and nearly all will now
agree that the careful beet farmer
receives pay for his lood farming
and will not desire to return to the
Hat rate method of payment"

Al. @. Fields Monday Night.

With splendid aggregation Of
gloom-dispeIlers and with the best
genealogical entertainment that has
been on tour in the southern country
in many years. AL G. Fields Greater
Minstrels make their annual blow to
local followers of minstrelsy at the
opera house Monday night.
Al g, Field has for mere than a
decade held the inside track in the
running of minstrelsy events in Dixie,
but with this seasons show he has
surpassed the most elaborate of his
earlier productions. With originality
as his keynote, the veteran minstrel
staged and mounted the different
"acts" on a scale whose magnitude is
unprecedented on it's minstrel stage
The veteran minstrel has gathered
about him the most talented corps
of comedians, singers and dancers
procurable in the minstrel world. The
great attendance record Of the show
and the lengthy and favorable press
seriticisms. of the performanceare a
grand endorsement of the claim that
AL. @. Filed has collected a star ag-
gregation of mirth- producers and
singers.
The jokes are the new born children
of the god of mirth and not the hoary
offspring Of centuries agone, as is
sometimes the case with the efforts of
burnt-cork artists. What is more they
are handed out strong and swift with
never a cessation of pungency and
never a suggestion of plagiarism.
So far as scenic effects and stage
accessories are concerned. the Greater
Ministries lack for nothing and on Oc-
casions the aggregation approaches the
genuinely spectacular while the sing
ing both in the choral and solo lines
is truly delightful.
All elements of coarseness have been
studiously avoided and the entertain
ment could pass muster at the hands
of Sunday school censors.
Might and morning: Down where
the Cotton Blossoms Grow is the title
given the magnificent scenic first part.
The comedians, singers and dancers
are discovered as the curtain rises, at
work in the cotton field, The melodies
of, the plantation roll snorously from
their Threats. The sun is beginning
to sink dull and red below the horizon
and as the dusk draws down upon
the snowy blossoms, presto! there is
a transformation. The glittering
Garden Of the Fountains Is flashed,
sudden and dazzling to view.
A rollicking celebration Of a
Flower Postwar is in full swing. In
gay and gaudy array the comedians,
singers and dancers and interlocutor
apepar. 1t is a joyous, registering
frolic. Funmakers and vocalists are
in action. The audience is In a scream
of mirth. Then in the midst Of the
whirl of gayety a quick curtain falls.
There is no wait. Up goes the rag
again and Forbes field, the home of
the Pittsburg Pirates, is shown. a
burlesque ball game is in progress and
It is hummer, It gives the sturdiest
baseball fan q rfbache.
Then follow the feature acts" !:
aunt Dinah's Quilting Party" 1.-The
Promanderer Walk" Musical Mus
ings" and "Meximo Ho! Ho!" The
performance closes with an imposing
tableau entitled THE Dreadnaught,"
cleverly conceived and brilliantly
executed scenic and spectacular ex-
hibit.

points. Cables were disappointing and the
weather map was considered remarkably
good for this time of the year. There
was such weekend covering on the short
side as soon as the market opened. but
there was more fresh short selling, based
apparently on reports from the interior
that the crop was still being picked and
ginned in record time and that the spot
demand showed no Improvement. Spot
houses were among the heaviest sellers.
At the end of the first half-hour Of
business. prices were 13 to IA points under
yesterdays close and at low levels for
tho season.
The market showed a week undertone
all the morning and prices ssgged slowly
but steadily without showing any decided
signs Of reacting, even when weekend
realizing of profits by the bear side be-
came heavy. 1t was rumored that two
or more leading operators on the short
side were closing out and leaving their
following to keep the decline going. This
rurnor did not help the market in the
least. At the lowest prices were II to 81
points under yesterdays last quotations
The close was steady at the lowest
