Plant Fall Vegetables

The latter part of September
and early part of October bring
thoughts of fall vegetables. The
principal vegetables which can be
planted during this time are men,
toned by Prof. w. l.. Floyd of
the University of Florida College
of Agriculture.
Snap beans may be planted in
the field or garden. Lettuce and
cabbage should be planted in seed
beds and later transplanted. Sow
In rows about six inches apart so
that they can be cultivated. Tur-
nlpS, carrots, parsnipS and radish-
es can be sown in succession ev-
cry ten days or two weeks so that
fresh supply can be had contin-
uously. Bermuda onion seed for
the january crop should be sown
IN September, These may be sown

sion Division. A dark, sandy
loan is probably best, although
they will do well on a gray sandy
well drained soil. Low soggy
land should be avoided.
The land should be plowed deep
but not so deep as to turn up the
sub-soil. Use the disc harrow
freely, prepare a good bed, and
cultivate well until time to set the
plants. Drill in 800 pounds of
fertilizer to the acre Is to 20 days
before the slips are transplanted.
There are two systems of set
ting the plants. In the single
row method the SLIGHTLY ridged
rows are placed three feet apart
and the plants about ten inches
apart in the rows. In the double
row method the rows are four
feet apart and the plants ten or
twelve inches each way. Plants
set during early September will
begin to bear fruit during the
early part of the winter. How
ever, unless some means is provid-
ed for watering them it is best
not to risk setting them so early.
A week of hot dry weather will
likely kill them.

A BUSY Board

Not long ago the Board of Health
inspectors ordered mufflers on the
city ROSTERS and fixed a curfew rule
for cats. Now they are after the
New York honey bee. They want to
take official precautionary measures
to prevent citizens from being stung
on their way to work or on any ex-
posed surface. There are upwards
of a hundred bee keepers in this city,
and roofs of some of the sky-scrapers
are used as apiaries. So long as the
busy bee keeps strictly on his job the
inspectorsdo not care. But pickings
have been had in the Horticulture
sections, so some of the bees swarm
ed to one of the candy foundries
here and settled down to work in
the chocolate and molasses taffy Sec
lions. Candy girls say they cannot
pack chocolates with neatness and
dispatch if they are surrounded by
bees. 1t interferes with the natural
buzz of conversation. So 1t is likely
the health inspectors will recon-
mend a muzzle in the form of hoop
skirt to be worn by them.

confined to the big leagues is shown
by records compiled from the minor
leagues of various classifications be-
In a list comprising twenty-five
lagues of various classifications be-
low the majors, the records show
that more than half reduced either
the salary or players limit or both
during the past winter. In no case
was there an increase over the 1914
regulations in either the player or
salary limit.
Reductions in the number of play
ers to be carried ranged from two
to five per club which in the case
of six-club league aggregated from
twelve to thirty. The monthly sal &.
airy roll dropped from one hundred
to eight hundred dollars per month
per club. with the average ranging
close to five hundred. Taking five
hundred dollars as general aver

mile sweepstakes, to be run on the
Indianapolis Speedway today. Of all
the big races of the year, the 500
mile event is looked upon as the one
most likely to furnish the fastest
speed and attract the biggest crowds
Last year more than 100000 people
saw Rene Thomas drive a elage to
victory at the rate of STAT miles
per hour. Thomas will not be
among those who will attempt to
exceed that record in this years

Thomas, last years winner, re-

is estimated that the winner this
year will receive a much larger sum.
In addition to the money prizes,
there are several valuable trophies

Baseball Vernacular
AS She's Spoke
In Australia

The following description of {
I baseball game, played recently il
Australia between native and Ameri
can resident mines, gives an excel
lent idea of Antipoden baseball yer
nacular:
"The Americans mounted the DO,
first, sending Marie, to face the at.
tack. The pitcher treated him with
respect, allowing him to walk to the
first. Casey followed, and Hearn.
den's error enabled him to reach
second in safety. Caswell then threw
wildly at first bag, and before the
ball was recovered Marie and Casey
had sprinted across the plate. Tuck
er meanwhile had made good on the
diamond, but Braggs fly, which was
muffed, gave the fieldsman an op-
portunity of cutting the runner out
at third. Bragg consequently scored
on Browns hit to the country, max
ing three runs for the innings. Aus
tralia sent Hearnden to the box
first, but put-out at first was reg
istered Comber followed, and
Mares bad throw saw him safely
landed at first. Colby then came
with brilliant hit right out to left
field, bringing Comber home. Spiller,
who had been missed by the catcher,
made his way to third and a passed
ball completed the distance for him.
In the next term America could not
get off the box, and then Australia
made determined effort to draw
level in the succeeding term. Hearn-
den brilliantly smashed to the left
garden for two-bagger, and a pass
ed ball completed the journey for
him, and the scores read all. Spill
er was indulging in daring pilfering
on the diamond, and a well-judged
steal gave him second base, from
where he was sent flying across the
plate on Golby's clout, which Casey
allowed to get past. Colby had
reached third when Lambert went in
to bat, and the Leichardt player
brought him home on fine outfield
hit, which produced two bags. Cas-
well ten brought Lambert home,
four runs for the session."
