COLLEGE TEAM IS
READY FOR PLAY
Augustana Baseball Club Has
Schedule of Eight Games
Arranged.
WITH OUTSIDE SCHOOLS
Four Of the Engagements Will Take
Place on the Rock Island
Diamond

The schedule for the Augustana
baseball team has now been complet-
ID and will be comprised of eight
.ames. four Of which will be played
Ipon the local diamond. April 21 Au-
gustana will journey down TO Aledo
md clash with William and Vashti
or the first rub Of the season. The
1utherans will make their debut on
he home grounds with Lombard Ap-
IL 29.
Augustana's sister college, Gustav
Is Adolphus, from st. Peter. is going
20 invade Illinois for series of three
Dr. four games. They are booked to
appear upon the local diamond May
10 Monmouth and ST. Ambrose col
leges are also booked for two dates
each.
ONLY TWO OF OLD MEN.
The local baseball squad has been
practicing as regularly as the weather
would allow for the past two weeks.
Only two men from last years team
are on deck. the rest having been lost
by graduation or failure to return
and complete their courses The team
will therefore be made up mostly of
recruits. Some good finds have been
made and the indications are that the
Lutherans will have a fairly good
nine.
In the pitchers box the locals will
be strong. Bengtson, the Andover
giant, has showed in the few practice
games that he can deliver the goods.
To find catcher who can hold Beugt-
son is the problem Augustana has TO
meet. If Williams, the husky Rock
Island amateur, shows. up as well in
mid-season as he does now Augustana
will be well fortified In the big mirt
position. George Anderson has done
fairly well for a green man as a catch
er and with a little more experience
ought to make good.
At first base Knute Erickson seems
TO have no opposition whatever. He
is a clean fielder and a good hitter
Herman Larson, captain of the cham
pion basketball five, may push him
for this position. A last years veter- 1
an, Nyden, is slated for shortstop. For
third base there are indications for
fight between Lindahl and Lundgren.
Both are good men.
FOR THE OUTFIELD.
c. F. Anderson and n. Hultgren
seem to have affixed themselves per
manently in the outfeld. They are
both fast performers. The third posi-
ton in the outield will fall TO either
George Anderson or Herman Larson.
The schedule is as follows:
April 21-Augustana at William and |
Vashti
April 2s-Lombard at Augustana.
May 6-Augustana at Monmouth.
May 10-Gustavus Adolphus at Au- /
gustana.
May 13-Augustana at Lombard.

Those who have not already pur.

various kinds of roots make a good
substitute for silage. The writer fed

Considerable labor is necessary to

in the neigilborhood of $40 to $50 per
acre for labor. This is quite an item.
especially IN the northwestern states
where labor is scarce and expensive.
Turnips are good for young stock.

Rye as a Successful
Crop in South Dakota
South Dakota State College

they find rye more profitable in the
long run than either winter or spring
wheat In regions where winter wheat
will succeed, it is much preferable to
either rye or spring wheat because 1t
yields better and brings a higher
price. But 1t Is evident that II winter
rye will make great success in re-
gion where winter wheat fails two
years out of five, and where even
spring wheat does not always succeed,
rye is likely to be a very promising
winter grain. Therefore, l feel justi-
Hed Ia encouraging you to attempt a
small area Of rye. Do not put in too
much. A trial is always more Or loss

T ty In this case to be very slight.
II It Is possible for you to put In
small grain after corn instead OF small
grain after small grain, would urge
you also to do that 1t is very notice
able this year that small grain after
corn was less severely injured by
drought than small grain after small
grain There Is ample reason for this,
namely, that corn requires only about
half as much water per pound of dry
matter as oats, and that corn leaves
more moisture in the ground at the
close of the season than small grain.
Moreover, corn leaves a we'll pre-
pared seed bed for small grain, under
Dakota conditions. In order to pre-
pare for putting In small winter grain
after corn, you can either cut of the
corn and disc the stubbs and drill in
the winter rye, OF you can drill in the
winter rye between the corn rows
some time between August Is and Sep
tenAber 5. Which method you will use
will depend somewhat on time of har.
vestfng corn.

Tip-Burn of Corn
BY Pref. A. N. hume

A number Of inquiries have come TO
the South Dakota State College and
Experiment Station asking about the
cause and probable remedy for the
prevalent "tip-burn" Of corn
1t Is noticed in many parts OF the
state that even in reasonably cool
weather and after light showers, the
top leaves and tassels OF corn plants
persist In drying up and dying. This
phenomenon is not exactly the same
as ordinary firing" of corn.
A good many fields thus affected
have been examined by the Agronomy
Department and number Of infected
plants have been microscopically ex.
amined In consultation with DR. F. w.
Olive, the botanist 1t was at first sur
missed that possibly some fungus dis
ease was affecting the corn fields In
question, but this apparently is not
the case. Neither threads Of fungi nor
bacteria we're found which could ap-
pArently cause the defect Moreover,
plant Psychologists have already made
some study upon the condition mon
TONED and II has been concluded that
the condition Is due to lack Of mois-
ture. Apparently the condition is the
result Of long continued dryness, per
hAps accompanied by some hot winds
FATHER than duo 20 a more sudden dry
ing out Of the ground. The latter con.
dition, namely. the absence Of rain for
two or three weeks is indicated by the
drying leaves. first from below, while
IN the present condition the lower
leaves are green. whereas. the upper
leaves and tassels are apparently de-.
Stroyed.
Since this disease Of corn, for indeed
It Is such, Is physiological and due to
drought, thcre Is no remedy within the
control Of man. Nothing will help It
but rainfall and after the pollen II
killed even that VIM not help much.
