JOHNSON'S PRAISE
Of The FARMER

New York, July 16.-President Ban
Johnson, of the American league, IS
saying some nice things about the
Highlanders' new manager.
Frank Chance is the man of the
hour" began Ban. HE is slowly
building up a winning team. I was
surprised to learn he had traded Hal
Chase for Borton and Zeider but I
believe the deal has benefited both
teams. Chance could have had
Fournier instead Of Borton but he
chose the latter, and l think his judg-
ment will be v~indicated as soon as
Borton begins to bat, as / know he
can. Zeider is a wonderful inside
player. If Comiskey had his own
way, Zeider would not have left the
White Sox, but there was friction be-
tween Zeider and Callahan and the
manager carried his point.
"The Athletics seem to be making

Olympic champion fancy diver.
He Is after the national outdoor
title, which is regularly competed
for off the lofty thirty-foot tower
Last summer he lost it by default
to j. F. Dunn of the New York A.
c., but previous to that he de-
Tended it successfully for several
seasons, and unless the youthful
McAleenan, the indoor holder, can
take his measure, there is every
prospect of his scoring once more.
The national contest will be un-
usually important this year, be-
cause in view of the beating of
Adlerz by Gaidzick the winner
may justly claim the worlds
championship. 1t is rumored that
the big event will be held in
August. Several clubs have ap-
Piled for sanction to hold it, but

Leach Cross. the ghetto champion OF
New York, whose real name is Louis
Wallach, is after Willie Richie for a
fight for the lightweight champion
ship. His careful fight with Bud An
derson, the young western terror, who
was looked on as a conner, has placed
him among those entitled to a fight
for the lightweight championship. 1t
is possible that he and Richie will be
signed for Labor day.
But If Leach got the championship
he would have to do some clever dodg-'
ing to hold it. Jack B%ritton, who has
beaten him, would take it away if they
met. Packie Mcfarland, too, would
take it away If he could get down to
the proper weight.
Cross has a heavy straight right
hand punch, which carries a knockout.
He also has a powerful left nook. If
he lands on Richie he will win. But
there are not many fight experts who
think he Would land.

FACTS ABOUT SOY BEANS.

Nanley Champl1r. Asst. Asronomlst.
Like clover and field peas. soy beans
are nitrogen %gatherers and thus sup
pty the soil with an element needed
as plant food. They will stand some
what more frost than corn, but will
not stand hard frosts. They thrive in
hot dry weather If there is sufficient
moisture in the soil to permit Of
growth.
The Ohio Experiment Station claims
that the hay Of SOY beans is equal to
alfalfa. 1t requires considerable care

r.,t.ler large and juicy. The crop 10

be sown just after corn planting and

raises them will be able 10 do it with
OFT crowding the work at such times.
They are smooth and SOW readily

sown in drill rows in distances apart

Huron Efforts so far made in the

Those who refuse to complete their

they still will be eligible. OF course,
to vote at the general election.
In Turner county and in the Black
Hills country. where some active reg
~istration efforts have been in progress,
much trouble has been experienced in
getting voters r~econciled to the ne
cessity of giving their party afilia-
tons. Where approached and urged
to register. the voters would express
a Willingness to do SO. and things
would be moving lovely until the point
came to designate party preference.
Il know what my party preference
is now. but ! do not know what it
will be 80 days from now is the
substance Of frequent objections
made.
Many voters are inclined to over
look the fact. apparently. that the
primaries are purely party affairs and
that the division CT forces. therefore,
is reasonably logical. Confusion and
misunderstanding on this point is ex
pected to give unusual Importance tc
the Independent column in the cleo
