tenn which must atrophy down 10 the
normal again between seasons. And
the fatigue incident both to hard
training and to hard play is acknowl-
edged by physiologists to be damags
ing. IRRITABLE heart" is one OF the
effects of football. Nearly all foot
ball players, says Professor James, OF
Illinois, have weak hearts and are
more liable to diseases of ether forms
than men who exercise moderately.
Another objection urged against tha
game is that it admits Of no participa-
ton on the part of the majority of
the men in our schools. Only hand
full may play; while all the rest look
on only. Thus even if the game were
beneficial t. the prayer, it can not
benefit the horde of non-players-
less it does so physically.
And this leads us to the other side
of the question. Is it not true that
football furnishes a wholesome stin1u-
lus to the germ of grit and stamina
that should be nourished in every
American breast? Are we not becom-
ing effemiIliate and 'etfete" fast
enough without crushing out every
possible means of preserving what lit
tie elemental gameness we may have
left?
There are two sides to our problem;
but mo middle ground. For you can't
reform football. Whenever you reform
it sufficiently to render it safe, you
annihilate it, kill it absolutely.
Football is fascinating because
fierce and deadly. So the question re-
mains: Is The gama worth the candle
shall the gridiron stay Or shall it
go?
One or two of the leading colleges
of the country have forbidden the
game, but it remains to be seen what
the others will do. O.

Twenty of the most promising

This is the prophecy of conserva-

Medical Record. During the year just
ended 19 lives were lost and 400 athle-

Football" says former President
Elliott, of Harvard, ''caUses an unrea-

men who play football several seasons

serious, and Of the twenty or thirty
picked players who play hard through
out a season, hardly a man escapes

AID the serious injury may now

Commenting upon the twenty that
will be called upon to meet death
during the coming season, the writer
in the Medical Record says: ITO all

frightful thought that the finger OF
Fate today marks out these unknown

PRUNING FRUIT TREES.
Clemson Extension Work-Arti-
Gle g..

SlcMSOU EAtcNSlOu "VA -AA -
Gle 81.
X y y X IL .
Now is the time to begin work OF
getting fruit trees in good condition
for their work the coming season and
pruning should be the first operation.
Before attempting this work the work
er should know what to do and how to
accomplish the object sought. The
main objects of pruning are to thin
out superfuous growth, make the tree
symmetrical, to rejuvenate old trees
to thin the fruit and to protect the
trees from diseases and insects.
Thinning Out Superfluous Growth.
In pruning we should always aim TO
secure a low open head to ADMIT a
free circulation of air and abundant
SUNLIGHT. Remove all broken and dead
branches, thin out where growth IS
too thick, and remove all water
sprouts.
Pruning for Symmetry.
To form a symmetrical tree it is best
to begin at planting time as soon as
branches are formed. Select the three
branches which are to form the frame
work of the tree so that they are even
" distributed up and down and around
the trunk. Avoid having branches
coming out opposite each other on the
trunk, for this makes point of weak
ness. After the tree is considerable
size it is harder to give symmetry to
it, but by judicious pruning the tree
can be balanced up by removing
branches where there are too many on
one side and encourage branching on
the other side.
Rejuvenating Old Trees.
By removing the older portions or
cutting out portion of the branches
we stimulate growth in the remaining
portion, and thus rejuvenate the tree.
Where large branches are removed the
cut should be made near the branch
that is left in order that the wound
will heal rapidly. To prevent splitting
or tearing of,the bark cut part way
through the branch from the lower
side and then saw from the top a.short
distance in front of the under cut.
Then cut off the stub as smooth as
possible, saving clear through from
the top. Large wounds should be COW
cred with a coat of thick lead paint or
coal tar to keep out water and disease
germs.
5 Pruning to Thin Fruit.
To thin fruit of apple or pear cut OH
some of the fruit spurs. Always re-
move the old spurs and those on the
inside of the tree and on the trunk and
larger branches. To thin peaches cut
of from one-third to one-half of the
length of new wood and remove some
of the branches where they are crowd
ed. Peach buds are found on the sides
of the past seasons growth.
Pruning for Protection.
By removing all decayed fruit anc
decaying or dead wood we remove the
source of Infection in many cases. This
pear blight of apple or pear is kept
in check by cutting off and destroying
the affected parts. AS the disease en-
ters the blossoms on the fruit spurs
these spurs should be removed from
the trunk and large branches, because
the latter would soon be diseased ant
could not be removed without seriou:
injury to the tree. The pruning i'm
plements should be disinfected afte
cutting off a diseased branch. Thi
can be done by passing through ;
fame or dipping in solution of car
bolic acid or corrosive sublimate.

make the presidents trip one of safe
ty and pleasure.
On the last big trip there was a
track walker every half mile on the
roads over which the president tray-
eled through the Rockies. At every
switch a man was stationed for hours
before and until after the president S
train had passed. At terminals ev-
cry railroad detective available was
placed on duty subject to the orders
OF Mr.. Wheeler. Every time the pres
ldents train ran onto a new connec-
ZION the private car of some of the
railroad officials, containing either
the general superintendent or the
president, and sometimes both, met
the president and had the car hitched
on to the presidents train. This al
ways assured right of way for the
train, although it was running as a
section. President Taft has travelled
close on to 100000 miles since he
was elected. Lucien Wheeler has
travelled fraction over 100000
miles ahead of him. Mr.. Wheeler
Will not risk an estimate of the num-
Der of miles he has travelled as part
of the presidents guard and his ad-
vance agent. With Jack" on these
trips are three other secret service
men who have had as much presi-
Dental duty as he They are James
Sloan, Richard Jarvis and Joseph
Murphy. All have been in the SER
vice about the same length of time.
James Sloan is chief of the white
house force. Jarvis and Wheeler are
members of it, and Murphy is a mem
Der of the Boston district and is de-
tailed to travel with the president
and substitute at the white house.
All these men have records for doing
things. All are young, keen and act
i've.
1t is certain that President Taft
is the best guarded president the
country ever has had Each trip he
is better guarded than the previous
one. This is so because Wheeler and
Sloan perfect the weak points of the
previous trip. 1t is almost safe to say
the president will complete his trip
without running any danger, unless
it is from a railroad accident, and ev-
cry precaution is taken to prevent
that from happening.
