Many Yearn to Return.

In addition to the eighty-six boys
regularly chosen in the essay con-
tests held in each county of the
state, and the thirty boys who will
attend the Minnesota fair as repre-
sentatives of the Morris School of
Agriculture, thirty other boys will
pelong to the 1914 Farm Boys
camp. The possible membership of
the camp this year is thus increased
to las. TWenty-six of the third
group of boys have been chosen from
the congressional districts as units.
According to the terms of this con-
test, announced last year, two BOYS
from each con gressional district who
attended the 1913 camp were to be
eligible to the 1914 camp in case
they competed for this honor by
writing an essay on 'My Experiences
at the 1913 Farm Boys Camp" In
a similar way one from each con-
gressional district who had attended
the 1912 camp was to be given a
chance to go this fall. Though a
greater number could have gone, on
ly twenty-six qualified.

PLAYS Child's Trick.

Charles DAILY, former manager of
the Athletic. club baseball team
ought to be given Feather medal
for his "heroic" action towards the
baseball boys last Saturday. Be-
cause he couldn't have his own way
he took the bases and suits away
from the boys and locked them up.
This action almost delayed the game
and Charles seemed extremely jub-
liant over apparent results. Quick
action on the part of Acting Man.
ager Brandon and J. K. Given, of the
Fourth of July committee, brought
some homemade bases to the
grounds in time for the game,
Friends Of Mr.. DAILY were astonished
beyond words at his action and dis
loyalty to- the team and the associa-
ton. He even went so far as to or
der first baseman Berrigan to take

Daily claimed belonged to him. 1t

The Danger Of Wood.

The excessive and wasteful use Of
wood in buildings is largely responsible
for fires. and wood is used because Of
it's apparent cheapness.. Ultimately
wood is a high priced building mate
rial, since it's true value In the first
place is much higher than the selling
price and its durability is so much less
than other materials. The failure to
renew forests and the sacrifcial price
at which wood is sold. representing
only the cost of getting it to market
and not the cost Of reproducing the
forest crop, has resulted in the erection
Of large number Of buildings of an
intlammable and quickly deteriora ting
nature. 81. . ... g. ~ I.

PLANT THAI IMPROVES SOIL.
The Sugar Beet Increases Yield Of

How sugar beets improve the fexi-

all crops grown In rotation with them
Is explained In the National Magazine
by Truman G.sPalmer. who has spent
the past ten years in studying agricul-
tural methods In Europe and America.
The sugar beet being a deep rooter,"
says Mr.. Palmer, "a prerequisite TO its
culture Is that the soil be stirred to a
depth OF ten TO fourteen inches. The
tender beetlet having to undergo the
shock OF thinning soon after 9 comes
up In order to leave but one beet to a
