Playing of Tacony Against
Hibernians Surprises Fans

PHILADELPHIA. March 23.-The
splendid playing of Tacony on Sat
urday against the Hibernians In the
semi final round of the American
cup competition, which the former
won, 4 goals TO /, even surprised their
most ardent admirers, and It is a
safe wager that they did not antiei-
pate their fayorites winning easily az
they did. The first half could not
have been closer, with both teams
having their fair share of the play,
but In the second period there was
nothing to 1t only Tacony. As this
is the fifth season that the locals
have been in the A. r. A. tourney
and have won the cup once besides
appearing In the final, those who are
not well yersed with their record
during the five years will be sur
prised to know that every team
which has eliminated the Taconys
has won the cup.

Okra. a Valuable Garden CrOp.

Okra is a very desirable addition
to garden and there is no reason
why it should not be grown more ex-
tensively in Missouri gardens. The
pods of this plant are used i'm making
soups and various preparations in
which meat is an important factor.
The best varieties to use are the
dwarf green, long pod and lady-fineer
types. Planting should be done as
early in the spring as possible 1t is
sometimes advisable to start the
plants in berry boxes in hotbeds and
transplant to the garden after all dan
ger of frost is past Or the seed may
be sown in the open after the ground
has become thoroughly warm. The
rows should be 4 feet apart for the
dwarf types and 5 feet for the taller
ones, with feet between plants. Give
plants frequent and shallow cultiva-
ton until they cover the ground. The
pods are often dried or canned for
winter uSa-W. ID. p.

COLLEGE MAN vs.. HESSIAN FLY

A few years ago an attack of the
Hessian Fly such as the one that is
damaging the wheat this year would
have meant total loss. The farmers
would have grumbled about their
luck, held on to their money, and caus-
ed bad year all round.
Now they send at once for the theo-
retical man of the agricultural college
to come to their aid. His theories are
recognized as practical and indis-
the agricultural college its highest aim
has been reached
Prof C. b. Hutchison of the Missouri
College of Agriculture has been a busy
man the last few weeks because of
this very question of the Hessian Fly.
At the requests of the farmers he
has been travelling over the state tell
ing them how to combat the pest. In
some places it is necessary to destroy
the wheat. and he tells how to plow it
under, disc the ground and plant corn
so that a crop may be had this year
In other cases this plan is not the most
practicable or valuable, and i'm each
instance Mr.. Hutchison advises the
farmers just what should be done.
Consequently. this year cannot be
the failure it might have been, and the
money saved probably will amount to
more than the cost of conducting the
College of Agriculture for the year
The school constantly proves itself a
paying investment

Where one lives in the city and has

the bean is a profitable vegetable Ia
cultivate. The common bean H. grown
in two general types. the bush bean
and the pole bean. For the city gar
dener the latter type IL to be recon
mended, as it furnishes more growth
and larger yield. The beans should
be sown in hills. each of which should
contain from three to five plants. A
pole should be set in each hill at the
time the first runners appear.
Since the bean Is subject to injury
by frost, it should not be- planted until
the weather is entirely settled. The
bean grows well only on rich soil and
unless the garden spot Is already of
this type. stable manure should be- ap'
piled in considerable quantity. One

As TO THE HAT OF STRAW.

Approaches the day when the festive
straw hat blossoms forth in all its
glory.
For some time few of the fodder
bOnnets have lodged around the cor
ners searching for enough heat to eX-
cuse their existence. Similarly they
have shown resplendently in haber-
dashers' windows, and in advertising
illustrations. There is no telling how
many have been bought to blush un-
seen when the new owners lost their
nerve. But. alas, such apparel is not
for us.
Oh, hat of straw, We long for thee,
yet We dare not yield to our feelings
for fear OF ridicule. To be sure, some
daring individual must wear the first
one, and some one else the second.
Still others must wear the first dozen.
Let no one be sparing in praise for
these martyrs who sacrifice them
selves for the common veal But in
the ranks of those heroes is no place
for shrinking editorial writer. We
admire, but dare not emulate.
When the hat of felt and its male.
the hard-bOiled derby, have vanished
entirely, if temporarily, and wnen
even the lowly cap makes its last
stand; when the 81 thatched roof
stands forth triumphant; then let us
sneak into clothing store and join
the ranks of the yictors. henceforth to
strut as if We had enlisted in April in
stead of July.

Cucumbers Easy to Grow.

The cucumber is one of the easiest
vegetables to grow. In selecting soil
for the production OF this vegetable a
sandy loan is preferable, but it will
grown on almost any soil that is rich.
If the soil is not in good shape the
best fertilizer to be had is barn-yard
manure, applied in the fall and allow
ed to rot during the winter.
In the spring the soil should be
plowed deep and well broken up. As
the cucumber is very sensitive to cold
no planting should be done until the
weather is entirely settled. The most
common method of planting the Gu
cumber is to put in hills about feet
apart each way, though if the soil is
very rich the hills should be even
farther apart About four to six seeds
should be put in a hill and when
sprouted may be thinned down to
three.
For cultivation a small plOw and a
hoe are the best of tools. Between
the rows the plOw will get all the
weeds, but around the hills the hoe
must be used. Clean cultivation must
be practiced and a good mulch kept on
the soil at all times to prevent the
escape of moisture. When the vines
become very long cultivation must BE-
discontinued. This is generally at the
end of the season when the crop is
nearly ready to be harvested.
For this section the best variety is
some kind of White Spine This has
been used by most of the commercial
grOwers-J. s. II.
