BASEBALL THE WORLD GAME
American Sport May Complete Con.
quest of Globe-Reeent Contest
In London Is Cited

Products Of American farms and of
American manufacturers are found In
every corner of the world. Is this
country going to achieve another con-
quest of the same sort in regard to
sport? Are we going to make our
great national game universal and es-
tabiish baseball as a permanent in
stitution in every civilized nation and
in some that can scarcely claim to be
civilized?
The recent triumph of baseball in
England suggests the question. Two
of our best professional teams have
toured the world, and their journey
has been a triumphal progress. At
one game in London, according to
press reports, the attendance reached
the astonishing total of 10000, and
everywhere the crowds which have
witnessed the contests have been
worked up into a state Of excitement
quite foreign to the average British
throng of spectators at a sporting
event 1t is said that of recent years
no such enthusiasm has characterized
the emotions of the spectators at even
the most important OF the cricket
matches; and this fact, it seems, ought
to convince even the most conserva-
tive of Britons that as sport for the
delectation of onlookers, baseball Is
superior to the game which more than
any other has assumed the character
of the British national sport.
1t is gratifying to know that Ameri-
cans can make better goods of vari-
GUS sorts than any other people in the
world and can sell them at profit in
foreign lands, outdoing all competitors.
1t will be almost equally gratifying.
perhaps, If Americans have invented a
game which is SO very much better
than any other game that foreign coun-
tries throw their own games into the
scrap heap and adopt the American
game instead. That would be a unique
triumph for the genius of the Ameri-
can people. That we may actually
witness it before very long seems at
least possible in view of the success
of baseball in England, following upon
an almost equally striking success at
tanned by it in Japan.-Charleston

WELL-EoUIPPED WORK SHOP
Much Time and Money Can Be Saved
by Making Repairs at Home on
Fam Machinery.

A well-equipped work shop is con-
venient it is economical; and it is al
most necessity to the successful
farmer. Just how far the farmer
should equip his shop will depend on
the extent of his farming operations
and his ability in handling tools
The average farmer, with adequate
tools, can do all the ordinary repair
ing on his farm machinery.
AS rule. the farmer can do his
own repairing much more quickly
than he can so to the nearest shop
and have a mechanic do the work
The farmer may not be able to make
repairs equal TO those made by a
trained mechanic, but the economy Of
time may be Of more Importance than
excellence.
Breakdowns are most frequent dur
ing the busy season. and much valua.
bic time is sacrificed going to some
distant shop. In many cases perma-
nent repairs can be made at once. and
in most instances temporary repairs
can be made at the farm shop, pro,
vided the necessary tools and supplies
are available.

GROWING SUGAR BETS
CLIMATE AND SOIL MUST BE IA.
KEN INTO CONSIDERATION.
Plant Does Remarkably Well at High
Elevations From Fact That II Ia
Injured Very Little by Frost
and Hailstorms.
(Ry c. S. KN1GHTN

Experience has shown that the
sugar beet reaches its highest develop
ment in the north temperate attitudes.
Although the conditions of tempera-
ture must be taken into consideration
In selecting localities for the growing
of sugar beets, yet in addition to the
thermal conditions must also be
studied those of rainfall or water sup
ply.
The sugar beet requires a certain
amount of moisture in order to pro-
duce its normal crop. This water may
be supplied by precipitation in the
usual way by irrigatcn, or else the
soil must be of that particular quality
which will allow subterranean moist
ure to reach the roots OF the plants.
The porous and sandy soils adjacent to
rivers sometimes furnish a sufficient
amount of subteEranean moisture to
produce a good crop in connection
with the rainfall
In general. beets Fequire four or FIVE
months OF growing weather for their
successful production. In the West
where the moisture is applied by irri-
cation, the crop may be harvested at
a certain stage, thus making the con-
ditions ideal. In the eastern sections
of the country, where the moisture Is
applied by rainfall. a second growth

may occur after maturity, caused by
rain, which greatly reduces the sugar
content of the beet.
The sugar beet does remarkably
well at high elevations from the fact
that it is injured very little by frost
and hailstorms unless they are too
severe or too early. Profitable crops
OF sugar beets are, however, seldom
produced above the elevation of 5000
feet
Probably the best soil for sugar
beets is good, deep clayey loan with
sufficient sand or silt to allow it's be-
ing easily pulverized Since the sugar
beet is deep rooted it necessarily re-
quires a deep soil. The low, wet soils
are poorly adapted to this crop. as
they are wet and prevent any rapid
development in the early stages Of
growth, and the later growth con
tinues beyond the time of maturity
low quality. resulting in a low sugar
content Soils which have a hard pan
formation within 10 inches of the sur
face should never be used for beets
since they greatly interfere with root
growth. and also have a tendency to
lose moisture.
Stony and gravelly soils should be
avoided, since they are incapable Of
holding water, and stony soils prevent
the proper development in form Of
roots, which is essential for the high
est quality of beets. Sandy soils which
have a tendency to blow should never
be used. as the young plants are fire.

The sugar beet requires a deep. mel
