RACING EVENTS SCHEDULED FOR
STATE FAIR.
Stars of the Track to Compete for
Rich Stakes-CIassy Trottlng and
Racing Promised for Show.

The eleventh annual Kentucky State
Fair, to be held in Louisville next Sep
TENDER 1920, promises a celebration
of magnitude, excellence and general
interest that has never heretofore
been eclipsed by a like event, and no
phase of the fair will offer a more uni
versal attraction than the racing pro-
gram which has been arranged.
The Early Closing Events for trot-
tiers and PAGERS, entries for which
closed May Is, includes the unprece-
dented enlistment of 126 contestants, a
roster which is fully 40 per cent
larger than any heretofore recorded,
and which, it is said, numbers some of
the classiest examples of horse flesh
the country can boast.
There are a half dozen stakes for
which these horses will compete, the
first two being $500 trotting events for
two and three-year olds, and the re-
mainder $1,000 stakes for 2:11 and
2:10 PAGERS and 2:14 and 2:2O trot-
tiers.
In addition to the trotting and pac-
ing events, the fair will offer daily run
ming races, with entries including
some of the classiest and speediest
horse flesh then stabling at the Doug
las Park track in preparation for the
fall race meet, which immediately fol-
lows the week of the State Fair.

Feature of Closing Day.

The feature of paramount interest
on the closing day of the fair will be
the Gentlemen's Cup Race. The Brew
ers' Association has donated a silver
cup as trophy to the winner of this
race.
Entries for the purse races for trot-
tiers and PAGERS will not close until a
week prior to the opening of the fair
The purses for these events are $500
each, evenly divided among the trot-
tiers and PAGERS. The list will include
2;12, 2:16, 2:1S and 2:24 trotters and
2:12, 2:14, 2;1S and a free-for-all in
the pacing class.
The entire track program for the
coming fair has been arranged with a
view to variety, and lovers of good,
clean sport and of royally-bred ami
mails may anticipate one of the most
pretentious exhibitions in the history
of the state.
The Kentucky State Fair track is
rated as one of the finest ever laid,
and the recently-enlarged grand stand
offers an ideal mecca for sociability,
as we'll as sporting recreation.
This contest, which is open to farm
boys and students Of any agricultural
college, is splendid incentive to
scientific farming, and there is moth
ing so deeply interesting to the future
bone and sinew" of the state as the
opportunity to demonstrate their prac-
teal knowledge as tillers of the soil
and breeders Of fine stock.
A special donation Of S25 In gold has
been made by ]. B. Bowles, of Bards-
town. KY, in the saddle horse Judging
contest, and ID. H. Ewing & Sons, OF
Louisville, KY. have given S25 as a
prize for the best boy judge OF dairy
cattle.

The dairy industry of Wisconsin has
become the most important branch of
agriculture in the state and as a dis
tinct branch Of farming it is adjusting
itself to the influence of the various
factors-soil, climate, competing enter
prises and location with respect to
markets. The industry is not only
showing a steady increase in the older
settled sections, but is securing a firm
foothold in the newly developed re-
gions of the north
Since 1874, when the first refrigera-
tor car was introduced into the state
through the efforts of the Wisconsin
Dairymen's association of which ex-
Governor Hoard was the moving spirit,
the industry has grown to very large
proportions. To carry the factory
made butter from the producer to the
consumer in Wisconsin in 1909, it re-

each containing 756 60-pound tubs, 10

Wisconsin annually, or nearly half of
the nations supply, much of which is
transported to market in refrigerator
cars. Nevertheless, in spite of their

INCREASE IN FARM PROFITS
Farmers Make Serious Mistake of
Spreading Energies Over Too
Large Area, Says Worst.

fBy J. H WORST, Dean of North Da-
kota Agricultural Col1ege.)
1t requires approximately seven dol
lars per acre to grow crop. This
includes interest on the investment,
cost of seed, wear and tear on farm
machinery, labor, etc. BY adding one
dollars worth of labor to each acre,
there is little question but that the
average profits would be doubled. In
other words, as much profit should be
realized from the one additional dol
lars worth of labor as is now realized
from the seven dollars worth of I'M
avoidable labor and investment. Con
sequently If farmers would devote
one-third Of their land to growing corn
and alfalfa, neither of which interferes
with the time and labor employed in
farming wheat, and put one-tnird
more labor, thus make available on
only two-thirds as many acres of
wheat, they would grow more wheat
than where they spread their energies
over one-third larger acreage. The
corn and alfalfa fed to live stock
would insure them large additional
income, and one that is not often adj
versely Influenced by climatic condi,
lions, while the fertility deposited up-
on the farm resulting from feeding
the corn and alfalfa to live stock
would vastly improve the productive

GROWERS IMPROVING
BADGER POTATOES

Wisconsin is rapidly coming to the
front in the production of high-class
potatoes; and by careful selection OF
seed, proper crop rotation and the
planting of only few standard va
rieties, her growers will annually be
in position to supply the trade with
large quantities of dependable seed
stock and the fanciest of market
tubers. The progress made along
this line during the past two years
is largely due to the cooperation of
the growers in the formation of the
Wisconsin Potato Growers associa-
ton of which James G. Milward of the
Wisconsin College of Agriculture is
the secretary.
Further cooperation of the growers
in the selection of seed stock will be
urged at the state convention of the
association to be held at Rhinelander
on November 20 and 81. Following

SPORTS OF the FARM
White Plymouth Rock Chicken Is
One of Most Familiar.
Another interesting and Valuable 81.
version Is Development of Polied
Durham Breed Of Catt!e-The
Dwarf Tomato Is Another.

(Ry PROF. JOHN WILLARD BOLTE.)
The term sport" means many
things to many people. We each
think in our own language and see
the same object In different colors
from various sides. Sport from the
standpoint of the man interested in
heredity is an unprecedented and I'm
accountable change of character in
the offspring of perfectly normal pa
rents. This change may be slight, or
1t may be absolutely revolutionary,
but if it be true sport it has never
occurred before in the ancestry of
this particular individual.
The new character may effect one
organ or the whole structure of the
individual. There is no way of trac-
ing the causes of the change and no
certainty that it will be transmitted
to the descendants of the sport
1t is from these abrupt spontaneous
appearances of strange characters
that some of our most valuable va
rieties of plans and animals have
come. Perhaps one of the most IA
miliar sports in animal world is the
White Plymouth Rock chicken. This
variety is pure sport derived from
the Barred variety and the pure white
chicks occurred in two or three places
in this country at about the same
time. Fortunately they transmitted
their white color to their offspring and
thus was created new breed, pure
white in color, and true Plymouth
Rocks in every other characteristic
Another interesting and valuable
sport is the Polled Durham breed of
cattle, a hornless breed descended
from the true sports of the Shorthorns.
The first true polled Shorthorns were
born of horned parents, but their Off
spring were usually hornless.
In the vegetable kingdom, one of
the latest sports is the Dwarf Tomato
which we told you about in recent
article. 1t came spontaneously from
tall stock, had full sized fruit in
smaller numbers, and the stalk was
stiff enough to support the fruit. 1t
Immediately became populor and bids
fair to supplant its parent variety for
field use, because it produces more
and better fruit to the acre
Sports without number have oc-
Cured among the flowers and most
of US are familiar with numerous
cases of unexpected new shapes and
colorings.
Many of the finest varieties of ap-
pies and other tree fruits are of spon-
taneous origin, and we credit a num-
Der of valuable grains and field crops
to the same mysterious forces which
we know not.
While giving sports due credit, we
must acknowledge that cross breeding
and careful selection are fully as i'm
portant, if not more so, and they are
much more available to mankind A
great many mutations of character
which are called sports are really
changes due to crossing one charac-
ter with another

market. One of the foremost agencies
in teaching high standards of dairy
practice is the monthly butter and
cheese scoring exhibitions held at the
Wisconsin Dairy school, Madison. The
average score of the whole cream
butter entered at these exhibitions has
increased from 9215 in 1908 to 94.35 in
1918, and butter from farm skinned
cream has undergone a like improve
,ment
In an address before the Interna-
national Congress of Refrigeration at

that the outlook for better grades of
butter and cheese in Wisconsin was
promising, and that SO per cent. of the
exhibits shown each month at Madi-
