prizes won at the Olympic games at
Stockholm by James Thorpe, the Car
Isle Indian, will be awarded to the
men who finished second in the events.
The international committee of the
Olympic games so decided today or
motion of the American delegates.
The Thorpe case came UP in a pri-
vate session of the committee. Thorpe,
who after the game at Stockholm, con-
fessed to professionalism, was the win

Viking Ship offered by the Emperor of
Russia to the winner of the ~decanthon
and the rome ust of the king of
Sweden, offered by the king to the win
ner of the p~entathlon, both all around
competitions These trophies will now

r. Bic of Norway, respectively.
The committee unanimously adopted
the British proposal to send congratu-
lations to the American Athletic union

the case. All the delegates regret the
Thorpe affair, but praise the Amer

LEONARD WON GAME
An Interesting Game of Baseball Mt
Leonard ON Saturday Last.

The Dakota Business colleg baseball
team journeyed down to Leonard on
Saturday and were taken into camp by
the leonard bunch to the tune of is to
5. The game was never in doubt from
start to finish as the Leonard boys
plunged into the game with a ven
geanc and cleaned up nine scores the
first inning. Dab pitched a fine arti-
Gle of ball, getting fifteen strikeouts
and not allowing a walk, only five hits
being registered off his delivery. Neil
son of the business college pitched a
heady game, but was poorly supported
and he was touched up for nine hits.

at present Will De staged DeIOre wv
froth's San Francisco club next Satur-
day afternoon. ,
This contest is especially important
in the eyes of ring fans, because the
man who energies victorious will be
the one selected to meet Luther Nc
Carly, reigning; champion, in a title
bout either in Frisco or in Los An
geles on July A., "
On past performances Smith is like

the sporting element of the coast, be-
cause the doughty. sailors ring record
is more consistent and more impress
sive than that of the long, lean giant

Gave MeCartyT Fight.
Willard's chief basis for recognition
lies in the fact hat he once gave Nc
Carly a hot 10-round argument in New
York city in the days before Luther
had won his title. Some critics went
SO far as to say that Willard clearly
out-classed McCarty and that in a
longer bout Willard would surely have
disposed of his man, The more con-
was a good draw.
Smith is the pugilistic meteor of the
day. He has waded through the crop
of ambitious white hopes like a. scythe
through a field of wheat and his rec
ord is studded with *. o.. signs against
some admittedly good huskies. Smiths,
last notable feat was a knockout

TREES FOR DRY LAND FARMS
Land Should Be Given Thorough cuI.
tivation Throughout Growing Sea-
son az for Corn Crop.

(By Il. o. LONGYEAR. Colorado Agri-
Sex cultural College.)
The following species Of trees have
been found to be best adapted to our
climatic conditions for unirrIgated
land:
Broad lexf species-Green ash.
white ash, black locust, honey locust.
box elder, Russian olive. American
elm.
For evergreens. the native western.
red cedar. and the yellow pine. The
latter species should be nursery
grown stock. The red cedar, however.
can sometimes be obtained from the
foothills.
Land for these trees should be in a
good state of cultivation. If possible
by having produced several preceding
crops. The smaller sizes of nursery
stock three to four feet in height are
better than larger trees. II planted
when the soil is moist, 1t will be neces.
sary to use water. For a windbreak
or shelter belt, plant in rows with the
trees eight feet apart in the row and
in rows ten feet apart, allowing the
trees in one row to alternate with
those in the next. Give thorough cul-
tivation throughout the growing sea-
son as for a crop OF corn. Protect the
trees from prairie fires and live
stock.

SMALL BOY PLAINLY DRESSED
Perfection Of Cut and Workmanship
Demanded, Though Materials Must
Bo Ineonspicuous.

The clothes of the well-dressed
small boy grow palmer and palmer:
though more attention Is bestowed
than ever before on their perfection
of cut and workmanship Linen. per-
Gales and galateas are the best choice
for play frocks or sailor suits, and for
the formal costume. white serge or
mohair. or heavy white ottoman silk
may be used. A little boy OF six, who
has big brown eyes and dark hair
bobbed off in the familiar Buster
Brown style. has had made for sum-
mer wear six silken suits, all in the
picturesque sailor style, with very full
blouses over very short knickers.
Two Of the suits are of white tub silk
and with these go flowing sailor ties
Of black silk. One suit is of blue
and white tub silk and is accompa-
MED by dark blue tie; another suit
of tan and cream silk has tie Of
warm amber silk. A gala suit is Of
red and white tub silk. with red
necktie and white collar embroidered
with red anchors. The suit de luxe.
however, is one of white faille silk,
embroidered on collar and sleeve with
white chevrons and having tic OF
pale blue surah.

checked he'll run over the ball and
carry his rider out of the zone OF
play. A pony that will twist and turn
as though on a pivot and then break"
and race at top speed and stop in
stantly at command is the ideal polo
mount. His value is beyond price
There are many poloists who can
not afford to maintain large strings
of ponies and hire a trainer. Most OF
these men have from three to six po-
niles In their string. They place the
ponies In a public training stable. The
cost is $50 month for each pony.
These public trainers hire stable lads
TO exercise and take care OF the po-
nies. One boy looks after four ponies.
The actual cost of feed for a pony ID
$lz month. s
Some of the expenses other than
those of buying and maintaining the
ponies. cost the players many dollars.
The balls. made of light willow. are
furnished to the Polo association at
ten cents each. One firm has con-
tract to furnish the polo associations
with 10000 balls. The mallets are
worth from 50 to $3.50 each. The
heads of the mallet are frequently
broken in the game or during practice.
1t costs dollar to replace the heads.
The helmets the players wear cost
from 81 to 81 each. The riding boots
are worth from SIS to $25. The rid
ing breeches cost from IS to $12.

EFFECTIVE MULCH FOR CORN
Sprinq-Tooth CuItivator Is One Of Best
Implements for Work During
the Dry Seasons.

The most effective mulch for corn in
dry season is one about three inches
deep. made by small shoveled, shall
low. running implement that will
leave the ground practically level.
A spring-tooth cultivator with six or
eight shovels on each gang is one Of
the best implements for dry weather.
or one-horse garden plow after the
corn Is too large to work with the or.
dnary cultivator. If other implements
are used, they should be run shallow.
so as not to disturb the corn roots at
a time when they are SO badly needed.
These small-toothed implements
leave loose, dry layer OF soil on top
for mulch, which acts like blanket
thrown over the ground and keeps the
water from being lost by evaporation.

FLAX IS NOT "HARD" ON LAND
Idea Gains Acceptance Because Of Two
Reasons for Decreased Produc-
tion-Moist Soil Best.

It has long been thought that the
growing of fax was hard on the
land" This idea has no foundation in
fact; nor Ia there any reason for ad-
herring to it. The idea has gained ac-
ceptance because of the two reasons
for decreased production. One of these
is flax-wilt, fungous disease, which
kills the young plants and saps the
vigor OF the older ones. The other Is
the meager root system Of the flax.
which demands goodly amount Of
available plant food. For these rea-
sons. fax will do best upon a soil in
which there is a large percentage of
organic matter; a soil well supplied
with moisture and free from fax-wilt
disease; and these condit.ors are
largely under the control Of the far
mer.

bred for that purpose. In 1876. when
the first games of polo were played
In New York, 1t was possible to buy
ponies for prices ranging from $35 to
500. Mr.. Herbert once bought pony
for $35 that afterward developed into
crackerjack and his value scared to
ton. Nowadays ponies suitable for
polo cost from $500 to $4,000 each.
When Mr.. Whitney prepared for his
campaign in England in 1909 he spent
$3.50 for ponies. Since then he has
added many more to his string and
has spent at least $4,000. 1t will be
seen by this that he has expended in
the neighborhood of $125,000 for po-
nies alone. One Of his ponies cost
him $4,000. This was the high-water
mark paid for any pony. but many
good ponies have cost $4,000. The
duke OF Westminster has spent in the
neighborhood of $125,0OO for his ag-
gregation Of ponies. The ponies that
were made up In large part of those
owned by Mr.. Whitney and the duke
of Westminster. Several ponies. how
ever, have been donated for the use
of the players by various Americans
and Englishmen who are interested in
the game.
at takes several years Of hard
training to make pony suitable for
pole playing. He is usually bought
when three years of age and for two
years is taught the elementary parts
OF the game, such as not to shy at the
mallet. to follow the ball, to break"
quickly and to obey the slightest touch
Of the reins on his neck. Most ponies
are trained SO that the rider may
guide them by simply touching them
on the right or left side of the neck
with the reins.
Many persons not familiar with polo
consider the fastest pony the best
pony. This is an erroneous idea
While speed is an essential qualifica.

less If he does not know the game
thoroughly and is not subject to in
