Now. if there happens to be any one in the city who owns a real bucking broncho, or any horse that simply won't behave, said owner can earn S5000 this afternoon dead easy by taking said equine specimen to Wilmington park, provided he throws any one of the Oklahoma Broncho Busters baseball team, which plays there immediately after the Elks pa rade
 The Broncho Busters will arrive this morning and their appearance in full regalia oi the plains will like ly cause comment. A strong local nine has been engaged to meet them and their exhibition of broncho bust ing on the Wilmington park grounds will prove a most exciting one.
 The game will be called after the Blks have finished their parade, so as to give all ample time to get back to the grounds.

 AT THE PRINCESS.

Tumbling acts galore have played the Princess and "knoekabout" come dians have come and gone, but there is one act on the bill the first half of the week that will long be remem- bered by the patrons of this theater. This feature Is offered by the Four Comrades, a quartet of the greatest comedy tumblers that the Princess or any other vaudeville house, for that matter has ever played. They are a riot from the moment they ap, pear until they have finished the last feature.
 Espe and Roth also offer a unique speciality While the former is busy juggling cannon balls and heavy shells that are placed in the larger cannons of the modern men of war. his charming and pretty partner Is demonstrating that she is a com- edienne of note and her songs and wit add merry feature to what the audience last night pronounced a cracker jack" act.
 Dena Caryl is one of those capti vating song birds it is a pleasure to listen to, and her various numbers were encored time and again last ev- ening.
 The two extra reels of pictures are the very latest from the independent manufacturers, and all the other feat ures of the show round out a most pleasing evenings entertainment.

MARKETING BARLEY.

Barley serves as a ready money
crop for most growers and is usually
put on the market soon after thresh.
ing. 1t Is not good practice to put
weather beaten or damaged barley on
the market as the price will be cut
severely even though the feeding quail.
.ity is but slightly impaired. 1t Is far
better to use such injured barley on
the farm and secure both feeding and
fertilizing value from it.
Different varieties should not be
mixed when being put on the market
either as seed or mailing barley.
Farmers should grow but one variety
of barley and that of the very best.
Different varieties of barley when
placed on the mailing floor for sprout-
ing terminate at different periods of
time which leads to a positive loss
on mixed types Of barley, and CORE
spending reduction In price The malt
ster desires a barley Of one distinct
type and this should be uniform in
quality and size of berry. From re-
ports sent to the leading maltsters and
brewers Of the United States, no less
than 95 per cent. Of those reporting
preferred the six-rowed, bearded bar
ley.

FERTILIZERS FOR BARLEY

Don't think what you have received
from your grain is all profit until you
consider what you have taken from
the land
A yield of barley OF 40 bushels per
acre removes approximately SO
pounds nitrogen, 81 pounds phosphor.
ic acid and SO pounds Of potash per
acre. The nitrogen increases the ra-
pidity and quality Of growth; the
phosphoric acid, which is Immediately
available, increases the formation of
plant cells and hastens the ripening
of the cereal and the potash Increases
the starch of the cereal as well as
materially Strengthening the straw.
Some plan must be adopted Of re-
storing these elements to the soil. It
is mere matter Of arithmetic to
know Just what your profit may be
after you have included your cost Of
fertilization. Don't forget this item
in your bookkeeping with each field.
A little attention to soil building will
prove to be your best and most per-
manent investment.

A ROTATION LEASE.
(ey Clarence L. shamel.)

(By Clarence L. shamel.)
The greatest curse of our land to-
day is the year to year tenant, and it
is not altogether the tenant who is to
blame. 1t is the land which is owned
in the cities which Is pulling down our
average, while being robbed of its
fertility. There are thousands of
acres in every county owned by bank
ers, by business men and retired farm
ers which are being blasted by soil
robbery.
Should Improve Farm Land.
These farms are on the toboggan.
We cannot expect a man who may
have to move in a year to help you
build up the fertility of this land.
The remedy is the universal intro
duction of four or five year rota-
ton lease. contracting in detail what
the landlord shall supply and what
work the tenant shall do on every
field each year. and the tenant who is
faithful should be given the privilege
of renewal SO long as he proves true
to his trust

Protested Against Returning to Res
cue Victims of Titanic
Disaster.
SAYS BOAT WAS NOT FULL.
Testimony Refuted by Counsel for
Lord and Lady Duff
Gordon.

London, May 1S.-Lord Merry,
the president of the board of trade
commission, his five assessors and an
array of Great Britain's most bril-
liant attorneys with an audience of
fashionably dressed women looking
on, spent the greater part of the
day during the sitting Of the court
of inquiry into the Titanic disaster
In probing the statement of Charles
Hendrickson, one of the surviving
firemen. Hendrickson has said Sir
Cosmo and Lady Gordon, who
were two of the five passengers in a
partly filled lifeboat, had protested
against returning to the scene of
the disaster to try to rescue some of
those struggling in the water.
After sparring between counsel
and the judge as to the order in
which the evidence should be taken,
it was decided to let the members of
the crew, who were in the boat, tell
their story first, while the testimony
Of Sir Cosmo and Lady Duff-Gordon
would be taken later.
Sir Cosmo and Lady Duff-Gordon
were both in court with their legal
advisers.
Hendrickson was called to the
stand. Sir Robert Finlay was not
present and his colleague put only
"a few unimportant questions.
The witness was then taken in
hand by Henry E. Duke, NJ P.,
counsel for the Duff-Gordons.
Hendrickson stuck to his evil
dence, and although he could not
specify when he first made the state
ment discrediting the Duff Gordons,
Sir Rufus Isaacs, the attorney gen.
srai, was able to prompt him from
dispositions taken at the time of the
arrival of the crew in England, in
which the witness had said "passen-

WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE.

Brewers do not want the price of
barley to be too low. We would
rather pay a liberal price" said a
prominent barley man, and get the
quality best adapted for mailing. If
the price is too low, or below the price
he can get for the same effort in wheat
or corn, or other grain, the farmer will
not pay sufficient attention to the
quality and condition of his barley
We would rather pay price which
will be profitable enough to induce the
farmer to give barley his best atten.

want better quality and are willing
to pay handsomely for the choice yari.

HOW TO TREAT BARLEY SMUT
(By r. A. Moore.)

Grain smut is one Of the worst enc
mics, and you will lose from five to
ten per cent. if you do not treat it
properly before sowing. Most Of the
select varieties of seed barley now
on the market are nearly free from
smut
Repeated experiments have proven
that formaldehyde alone will not kill
both kinds of barley smut, and we
therefore recommend the warm water
treatment. ...-
Hot Water for Loose Smut.
Soak sack Of barley ~ hours In
cold water, let drain for one hour, put
in cask of warm water. not over 1870
degrees Fahrenheit, for a minute or
two to take off the chill and then sub
merge in barrel of warm water held at
constant temperature of 100 degrees
Fahrenheit for six minutes. II you
get the water too hot, even five de-
grees, you will kill the germ and ruin
your seed. Carefully test your Their
mometer by the standard thermome-
ter at the cheese factory or creamery.
After removing sack of barley, empty
on threshing floor to cool and SOW as
soon as possible thereafter, because If
left for two or three days before SOW
ing, barley may sprout. Use gunny
sacks in which to put barley for treat
ment and do not have them more than
half filled as this will allow the pene-
ttration of the temperature readily.
Test Your Thermometer.
sacks the first year. This will give
you enough seed which is free from
smut to plant all of next years crop.
Every farmer should have his own
seed patch from which to select the
best each year for the next years
seed patch, using what Is left for gen.
!eral sowing.
FormaIdehyde for Closed Smut.
Thoroughly mix 16 ounces avoirdu-
,pois Il pint formaldehyde in tank
or barrel containing Sc gallons Of wa
ter; put your seed in gunny sack
and dip it into this solution. Soak it
good for few minutes; take out the
grain and allow it to drain for few
minutes; then empty the grain on
clean floor and cover with wet sacks
or with canvas for an hour. Treat
the grain at least a half day before
sowing. In order to give it time to
dry.
Ii you prefer, you can spread the
seed grain on clean floor and spray
the seed with common sprinkling
can, or still better with small force
pump, which will throw an even spray.
1t should be shoveled over and over
until the seed is thoroughly moistened,
then cover with few sacks or
blanket for an hour. Allow seed to
dry before sowing.
Sixteen ounces Of formaldehyde in
36 gallons Of water will treat 40 to
80 bushels. and should cost 80 to IS
cents. Be sure that the formaldehyde
Is of standard quality.

SEED SUGGESTIONS.
(By Thomas cooper.)

Good seed is essential to the best
yields of all farm crops.
Obtain the best seed from crop
grown on your own farm or in the
vicinity.
Select seed from small grains on the
basis of size and weight.
A good tanning mill properly used
Is the most practical way to select
good seed.
Tests and experiments have proven
that heavy, plump seed will increase
and improve crop yields.
Treat seed to prevent plant dis
ease
Make a termination test of seed to
prevent planting seed that will not
grow.

uNcL- SAM PROTECTS SEEDS.

The secretary Of agriculture of the
United States is purchasing seed In
the open market to determine wheth-
er and how much adulteration is be-
ing practiced by seed dealers. He has
a very simple way OF correcting the
evil when found. The names of the
Offending dealers can be obtained by
application to the department for
copies of circular No. IS. Purchasers
of seed are asked to cooperate with
the department in detecting dealers in
bad seed. 1t is noticeable that the
name of a crooked dealer once pub
lished seldom is published again

LOSS BY SMUT.

About half million dollars worth
of barley is destroyed by smut every
year In Wisconsin alone. If you are
going to treat smut with hot water.
you had better test your thermometer
by that at the creamery. A few de.
grees too hot will kill your barley.
Every man should have barley plot
and grow his own seed. Two or three
acres will be sufficient to devote to
this seed growing

TWO BUSHELS TO THE ACRE

The rate of seeding varies. Prob
ably the most satisfactory results are
obtained by using two bushels per
acre. A very thin seeding is apt to
induce excessive stooling, thus caus-
ing irregular and late ripening. The
value of the grain for brewing pur.
poses depends entirely upon the uni
form rpening and perfect maturity
