COMMISSIONERS BREAK
UP YOUNGSTERS MILL
Refuse to Allow Exhibition Match Be.
tween Aspirants Eleven and
and Thirteen.

The hopes of two youthful pugilistic
aspirants, who had planned donning the
boxing gloves to aid in the support OF
terday when the District Commissioners
notified them that the law forbade such
encounters.
The youngsters were Don and Quincy
Shrier, brothers, thirteen and eleven
years of age, respectively, living at 50t
Fifth Street Northwest. Mrs. Catherine
l. Shrier. mother of the boys, wrote to
the District heads. requesting that per-
mission be given her sons to give box
ing exhibition at a local motion picture
and vaudeville theater three nights this
week.
THE boys have been boxing more than
six years" she wrote, land they don't
mind 1t any more than playing. They
have been properly trained in this line OF
work, which has benefited their health
in a marvellous manner. This proposed
vaudeville act is purely a scientific exhi-
bition of four rounds, thus giving the
boys the required rest"
The mother explained that the former
Commissioners had given her sons per.
mission to box on several occasions. Shs
said that her sons used the money OBJ
tanned from their pugilistic efforts to buy
clothes for themselves and their little sis
ter, who was injured seriously last fall
She stated that last winter her husband
was taken i'll and was compelled to leave
the city for two months on account OF
his health. During this period the box
ing brothers made sufficient money to
keep the family afioat until the father
returned to his employment.
The Commissioners, after consulting
the Corporation Cornsel and the Super
intendent of Police, decided that it would
be in violation of the law to grant the
permission. They stated that the law
prohibited pugilistic encounters, defining
them as ANY voluntary fight by blows
by means Of fists or otherwise, with or
without gloves"

hiah Winds In Ireland.

The West and South Clare Light
railway, in Western Ireland, has oc
casionally had its trains derailed by
high winds from the Atlantic ocean.
In order to obtain timely notice oi
the occurrence of such winds the
company has borrowed from the Brit
ish meteorological office a pressure
tube thermometer, which is installed
at Guilty station in charge of the
station master.
This thermometer is fitted with an
electrical attachment. devised in the
meteorological office, which gives a
signal when the wind reaches Ger.
tain strength.
The first signal is given for wind
velocity of 65 miles an hour. Under
such conditions ballast is placed on
the trains to increase their stability
If the wind rises to S5 miles an hour
second signal is given, and traffic is
then suspended.-Scientific Ameri.

tenn is far inferior to that OF grass.
and too. there Is the question of
plenty of exercise and sunshine.
Colts need plenty of exercise and
sunshine to build up strong muscles
and sinews. In the cold weather he is
kept in the stable most OF the time
Kept confined in stall during the
winter his feet are sure to grow
crooked unless intelligent care is TAX
en- of them.
In the summer the natural wear
and tear OF travelling about the pas
ture keeps his feet in ideal shape SO
that very little attention Is required
to keep them of the right length.
AS general thing the milk that a
mare gives during the winter is of
rather an uncertain quality. The
amount of milk mare produces is
not large, even on grass. In the win
ter when she is fed dry roughage and
grain her production Is very small. OF
course this can be supplemented by
the milk OF COW but the feeding Of
cows milk to young foals is a matter

which requires the most painstaking
care and even then the results are
not always satisfactory.
Still another advantage of rearing
spring colts is the fact that weaving
uraIly going dry.
Horses. like other domestic ami.
mails. are highly artificial products,
However, the greatest success is at
tained by raising them as nearly as
possible in their natural state. Plenty
OF green grass, sunshine, exercise and
the added milk production of the mare
are the principal reasons why spring
foals are best.
On the other hand, many farmers
who advocate breeding for fall colts,
claim that they can get better service
out of their mares during the springs
work. On my own farm l have never
been able to see much in this claim.
Grain harvesting are fully as hard
work as plowing and cultivating. Any
fair-minded man will agree that haul
ing a corn binder when the tempera-
ture is around 80 degrees is no suit
able work for brood mares that are
heavy with foal. No matter what sea
son of the year, common sense must
be exercised in the care and handling
of work mares that are heavy with
fcal If one is to succeed in raising
good colts.
1t does not require a great deal OF
skill to raise fall colt If good sense
is exercised in the process. II the foal

If your mares foal in the fall plan
to provide plenty OF room for the foals
to run about and pick bits OF food
here and there as they please. Give
them a little cows milk and encour.
age them to eat when they please
Allow them to run about even If the
weather is quite cold and snappy.
Feed the mares plenty of milk-mak
ing foods such as carrots, mangles
ground oats and wheat bran. Good
care and plenty of good food and ex
ercise will bring the colt through to
grass in fine shape.
Then, when he Is turned out to pas
ture feed him small ration OF dry
roughage until the grass becomes dry
and hard. Grain may profitably be
fed all summer but the hay feeding
may be safely discontinued after the
grass becomes hardened.

PREVENT DISEASES
OF GARDEN CROPS
Foundation Of Success Next Year
Will Depend Upon Pure Seed
and Good Soil.

(By Il. c. STAKMAN, Assistant in Path
ology. Minnesota College of Agricul-
ture.)
If the soil is made sanitary by dis
ease control, large annual loss in
garden crops will be avoided when
the seed is gathered from last year s
crop is planted in the spring. 1t may
be laid down as principle that the
foundation Of success next year will
depend upon the care which is given
to keep the seed free from disease
and to prevent the soil from becoming
unsanitary.
One vegetable which is directly con-
cerned is the potato. The tubers of
the potato plant may be troubled with
a number of diseases. In Minnesota.
the potato scab and the internal
brown rot must be contended with
Both diseases live In the soil and
tubers. and it is necessary that the
soil be free from the disease II next
years crop is to be a large one. II
diseased seed or soil be used year
after year. the yield of the sound po-
tatoes becomes smaller and smaller.
Other common crops which are af-
fected with disease in Minnesota are
the bean, cabbage, onion and beet.
Many of the diseases are SO serious
as to endanger the production of pay.
ing crops. Some of the seed may be
diseased, and yet show no trace OF
disease Bean anthracnose. bean bac.
teriosis and black rot of cabbage are
among the diseases.
To prevent disease from obtaining
hold. spraying should be done wher.
ever possible. II the soil is diseased,
rotation of crops must be resorted to,
Only by such attention can perma
nent success be assured.

QUESTION OF DEEP
FLOWING DISCUSSED
Some Very Striking Increases in
Production Have Been Sc
cured by Method.
(By e. J. KINNEY, Kentucky Expert
ment Station)

(By e. J. KINNEY, Kentucky Experi-
ment Station.)
During the last few years some very
striking Increases in production have
been secured by plowing very deep
ly. On the strength of this number
of authorities are advocating deep
plowing for the south. They advise
from eight to as much as sixteen
inches deep. 1t seems somewhat dan
gerous to the orthodox man to give
such general advice as this until we
have more experimental data to con-
firm its value. 1t is undoubtedly true
that much deeper blowing than is
now practiced in most sections of the
south Is desirable.
No cultivated crop can make its
best growth in a seed bed less than
seven inches deep. Where soils are
so thin that plowing to this depth
Will bring up large quantity of raw
subsoil the depth should be attained
by plowing little deeper each time
instead of taking the full depth all at
once. In this way the subsoil will
have chance to become weathered
and incorporated with the surface
soil
Some advocates of deep plowing
propose to go to the desired depth all
at once. We are not prepared to say
whether they are right or wrong.
However. the safest plan is to try 1t
on small scale at first. Deep plow-
ing is expensive and must show de-
cided benefits II It is to be profita-
BILE Let several join and purchase a
plow for deep tilling and give It a
good trial under fair conditions. This
will be safe and not expensive. 1t is
worth trying. and the experience will
be OF value to other farmers.
1t would be a good thing IL farm
ers trying new methods would make
a practice OF reporting results.

language when he got into such severe

drew on the blackboard her own con-
