sets into that and Is held by brace
attached to the car frame. In this
way 1t is well out of the way of any
one trying TO enter the ear from the

There is an all enclosed Pannard,
with a Holbrok body, which has no
entrance at all from the left side.
This is smooth and continued
panelling. There are two depressions
in the running board on that side,
In tandem, so that the spare tires
are carried, not side by side, but one

Siamese coupling in between, which
helps to support both tires equally.

Manager Davis did not give tbs
names OF the players who have been

that this data would be forwarded at
an early date, together with the
names of other players who shortly
are to be signed.
From the tone OF Manager Davis
letter 1t is evident that he is having
no difficulty In signing up men, And
he writes that he Is signing nothing
but youngsters, and there Is always
the probability of selling them to the
big leagues He does not believe In
getting old men. as he realizes that

from the sale of good youngsters.

flowing action of the blood through
the veins, especially at the pont where
the vibrator is applied.
The system Of imparting this vibra-
tory action to buds and blossoms has
been worked out and patented by
Herman L. Darling of Delta, Colo. It
comprises the installation in the tree
Of a small electric motor having a
trembling rotary motion and con-
nected by transmitting wires to an
electric current.
During the months of April and May
when the orchard is subjected to sud

vibratory trembling motion Is i'm
parted to all limbs of the tree, trans
mitted to twigs and bulbs and this
motion starts the sap to circulating,
invigorates the buds and strengthens
them against the killing effects of the

UnfaxorabIe Soils.

Clay soils are unfavorable to vege-
tation because the soil is too close and
adhesive to allow the free passage of
air or water to the roots Of the plants.
1t also obstructs the expansion Of the
fibers of the roots. Sandy soils are
unfavoravle because they consist of
particles that have too little adhesion
to each other. They do not retain
sufficient moisture for the nourish.
ment Of the plants. They allow too
much solar heat to pass to the roots.
Chalk soils are unfavorable because
they do not absorb the solar heat, and
are, therefore, cold to the roots of the
plants.

"STARVE THE FLY" IS
FIGHTERS SLOGAN.

Chairman Edward Hatch, Jr., Of tn,
American Civic association said durin.
a convention in Baltimore, THE slo
gan swat the fly should be changed t.
'starve the fly"
Mr.. Hatch is right. Adults and chill
dren may alike be banded In a crusade
to kill as many flies as have the temer,
ity to show themselves. But unless
the breeding and feeding places of the
insect that forgets to wipe its feet are
broken up the campaign will be In
vain-at least 1t will fall far short OF
success.
The thing is simple factor in the
arithmetic Of science and health. II
there are no places for flies to feed.
If there are no places for flies to breed.
there will be no flies to Kill The new
remedy has the virtue OF getting right
down to cases The "swat" formula
Is only q palliative.
The new warcry is an important one
In that ii touches the fundamentals of
sanitation everywhere. England is ~
most fiyless country. And England
gained that enviabie reputation not so
much by swatting the fly as 10y taking
the sy's meal ticket away from him
and at the same issuing Il close order
against the places In which II is wont
to breed
There IL no good reason why any en-
terprising town. county or state. iea,
GUS Of its health. should not follow II
similar course. 1t sounds spectacular
to tell how many flies you have slaugh-
tered during tie course Of n day. 1t Is
pleasant TO have their scalps dangling
so to speak. at your belt. But unless
you have nullified its means Of sus.
tenance and broken up its homestead
rights the few you have killed will
be REINFORCED by millions of others
just as deadly and just as aggressive.

KEEPING BROOD sow HEALTHY
Preferable to Keep Animal az Near
0sass or Vegetable Diet ~ Poe
slble-Roots Urged.
(By r. q. WEATHERSTONEA

By r. q. wEATHERsTONE)
Grass and vegetable matter are the
most natural foods for pigs, although
they will eat and can digest q great
variety of things. The nearer q SOW
can be kept to grass or vegetable
diet the healthier she will be, and this
system is preferable to dry. rich foods
consisting mainly Of grain, barley or
other meals.
Bran is most useful when grass IL
not available, but where 1t is not DOS
sible to give sows a grass run, lucerne,
tares and other green forage crops can
sometimes be substituted.
Roots, except that mangels must not
be given at all freely as narrowing APP
proaches or the pigs are almost GER
tain to be born dead, are useful and
where there is large garden 1t will
provide great deal of vegetable stun
that can be advantageously employed
for in-pig sows-stuff, too, that would
be otherwise wasted. Large quantities
Of dry grain, and especially corn and
barley, must be avoided as too heat
ing; and hotel waste, butchers offal,
refuse-indeed animal
matter in any form-are also bad, and
may, 1t Is said, be an exciting cause
of cannibalism.
When at grass or getting green
forage or garden stuff, few old beans
or some dry corn may be given once
or twice q week.
The food for the in-pig SOW for the
last week or 30 Of her time should
be as nearly as possible that on which
she will be fed for three or four weeks
after she Is narrowed. A well-known
breeder says:
I'VE have ceased to give barley or
other meal to our sucking sows until
the pigs are at least a month old. Our
newly farrowed sows are fed sharps,
or what Is locally termed thirds, mid
dlings, ETC., and varying amount of
bran, determined by the richness Of
the sharps, the number of the litter
and the age Of the SOW, also condi-
ton" His recommendation for feed
ing the in-pig SOW is: Vegetable food,
with little dry grass, beans, peas or
corn until within a week of farrow-
ing"

PROTECTS BUDS FROM FROST
Colorado Man Conceives Idea Of PIac-

Cause Vibration.

A recent invention relates to a new
system Of motor operated tree vibra-
ton for saving buds and blossoms
from frost.
The new system aims to create in
fruit trees a movement of the sap to
the buds and blossoms that tends to
vitalize them enough to resist the at
lacking blight Of frost. This move
ment of the sap might be called a
capillary action, and can be likened
to the gentle exercising action of an
electric vibrator instrument on the

Books were books in the. '7Oc
They were bought only after much
discussion in the family circle, only
after the gentlemanly book agent
had stayed to dinner and awed and
delighted them all with his easy,
graceful manners, his deep knowl-
edge of the ways of the world and
his accounts of travel in far places

The book had to be in keeping

THE AFTERMATH OF CHRISTMAS

After the Christmas wreckage of
family has been swept up and de-
posted in the broken glass and
china barrel in the basement, the
question arises how much common
sense was displayed in the gifts of
the season.
There is very general testimony
from merchants, as far as the pur-
chases for the use of adults go, that
the tendency is toward more sensi-
BILE gifts than formerly. There are
fewer penwipers, fancy blotting
pads and gaudy handkerchief boxes,
and more books. chairs and china.
In the case of children, however,
the fake mechanical toys that were
sold in this country for this season
would make mountain. Aeroplanes
whose tail feathers merely buzz
buzz around in the air, steamboats,
and railroad and fire engines that 20
to the junk man after being wound
up a dozen times-the people still
go through all the pummeling of the
Christmas scrimmage to get them.
Think it over. Next year let's
buy things that will at least last un-
! til New Years.
