From Everywhere.

Kansas and Missouri Valley foot
ball teams hold their final weekly
scrimmage tonight for the weekend
games played tomorrow and Saturday.
The Washburn Ichabods were
scheduled to go through a hard grind
tonight and it was expected that
Coach Gray would make a final selec-
ton of a quarterback before tomor-
row. The fact that Sam Stewart will
have to go into Saturdays game with
an injured arm will make the Icha-
bods almost as weak as they were
when Cooper and Baker defeated
them.
Dope from Bill Hargiss' Emporia
camp is totally lacking, and even the
Emporia papers are saying little about
the condition of the Normal team. 1t
is reported, however, that all of the
regulars will be in the lineup.
h. U. to Oklahoma.
Tonight the K. U. Jayhawkers leave
for Norman, Okla, where they will
meet the Owens Sooners Saturday. The
last secret practice of Ollcotts men
was held Wednesday afternoon, and it
was announced that the whole student
body would be invited to watch to-
days practice.
A surprising shift was made in the
K. u. backfield Wednesday when
Lindsey was shifted from half to quar-
ter, and Fitzgerald, a sub-quarter,
was sent in to fill Lindsey'S place at
half Holt, the Topeka boy who is
now considered one of the best line
plungers on the team has been given
the berth of fullback, and it is being
predicted that he will hold the place
permanently.
Nebraska Bear Stories.
Bear stories are being sent out from
Lincoln to the effect that the Ne
braskans are expecting a hard game
with Ames and are fearful that they
will be defeated by their valley rivals.
Captain Rutherford, who received
bad injury in the Notre Dame game,
is said to be mending slowly and may
not get into Saturdays game.
The Baker university team was
scheduled to leave today for Still
water, Okla homa, to play the Okla
homa Aggies, and members of the
WaShburn team who once battled with
the Okla Romans were extending their
sympathy TO Baker today Inc To-
peka high school team will play the
St. Joe, Mo, team at st. Joe Saturday
Aggies to Columbia.
In Missouri. the Aggies Saturday
will meet an eleven, which, apparent
", is one of the weakest in the Mis-
souri, Valley conference. Missouri mas
been defeated in every game this sea-
son. However while still playing a
ragged game. it was reported that the
eleven showed increased strength at
Ames last week. At Manhattan there
is much confidence of the outcome,
students pointing out that the Agri-
cultural college eleven displayed its
true form in the first half of the game
with K U. last Saturday when, al
though much lighter, it Outplayed and
outgeneraled the university eleven.
However, there seems but little dope
available and conservative critics are
contenting themselves with predicting
q close game.

ST. MARY's is CRIPPLED.
Catholics Will Have Hard Game With
Cooper College Tuesday.

Cooper College Tuesday.
St. Marys Kan, Oct. 2S.-Subse-
quent to the defeat last Friday at the
hands of the Kansas Wesleyans, the
Blue and White hopes have taken a
slump. Frequent injuries to the var
sity men have necessitated many
shifts in the lineup and this fact alone
has factored greatly in weakening the
offense.
St. Mary's realizes that the strong
Cooper aggregation is not to be con-
sidered lightly. The respective rec
ords of the two teams for the current
season is sufficient evidence to indicate
that the ST Mary's chances in the
coming fray are, to say the least,
meager. Indications were, at one
time, superlatively hopeful for a vic
torious season, but the loss of the two
chosen varsity quarterbacks, Ganey
and Bussey, necessitated too rapid
development of their successors, with
the result that the offensive faculties
of the team have been sadly depleted
and the first two defeats may be di-
rectly attributed to this loss.
The ink that has been following
the team all season made itself more
manifest last Friday when Whalen,
guard, and Weber, Lane and Bohn,
ends, were laid up with more or less
severe injuries. Coach ORourke has
been endeavoring for the last four or
five days to strengthen the st. Mary S
line. The result of his endeavors
has been anything but encouraging.
Bohn's injury leaves St. Mary's with
out a punter or kicker of any sort
Although much depressed by the
many miSfOrtuneS taht have befallen
the team, st. Mary'S followers are
hoping that the team will not be over
whelmingly defeated when they meet
the speedy undefeated Cooper eleven

Popular Young Lady Married.

Miss Jessie Harrison Burton,
daughter of Maj. and Mrs. J. L. Bur-
ton of this place, and well-known as
the Putnam county agent of the Girls
Gardening and Canning Clubs, was
united in marriage on Wednesday af-
ternoon to Mr. Herman Dane Collette
of Palatka.
The News is not informed as to the
details of the wedding, except that
the ceremony was performed by Rev.
R. Shull Burris, pastor of the Presby-
terrain church. 1t is presumed, how
ever, in the absence of announce
ments, together with the well-known
wishes of the bride to shun display,
that the wedding was simple, quiet
affair, and that the VOWS were pro-
nounced at the Burton home, with
none but the family and a few init
mate friends present.
The happy couple left the same af-
ternoon for Summer Haven, where
the Burtons have a cottage. They
will remain there until Sunday when
they will return to Palatka to make
their home.
1t is understood that Mrs. Collette
will not give up her work for the
school board, certainly not until at
ter the close of the present school
year. A young lady of rare accom-
plishments and talented beyond the
average teacher, the bride has won
distinction not only in the county but
throughout the state as one of the
most proficient and enthusiastic work
ers in home economics demonstration.
She was born and reared in this place
and the best wishes of all our people
will follow her through life.
Mr.. Collette is a civil service man in
the postoffice at Palatka and has a
fine reputation for honor and gentle
manly department. He is native Of
Georgia.

Citrus Trees Should Be Planted in
December.

The best time to plant citrus trees
is in December. At this time the
trees are as nearly dormant as they
will be and consequently a better
stand can be had. w. L. Floyd, pro-
fessor of horticulture in the Universe
ty of Florida College of Agriculture,
advises that the land which is to be
planted to the citrus grove should
have been cultivated year or two in
some field crop. New land usually
contains enough roots and sprouts to
interfere with the growth and Guilt
walton Of the young trees.
The land should be as well prepared
as for field crop. Plow the weeds
and grass under and work the land
down with a disk and spike tooth har-
row. The trees should be from one
to two years old on two to four-year-
old stock.
Set the trees just as deep as they
stood in the nursery. Prune off all
broken roots and make the hole large
enough that roots may be placed in
without bending. Fill the earth in
around the roots and press firmly.
The tops should be cut back to about
"a inches from the ground. This is
the first step toward the low headed
tree which is best for Florida condi-
tons. If there are any long branches
trim to about three buds.-Agricultur-

PROOF COINS.
They Are Always Struck From New
and Specially Prepared Dies.

and Specially Prepared Dies.
Proof coins have been struck at the
Philadelphia mint for many years, but
at no other mint, to be sold to collec.
tors. A premium of about 10 per cent
is charged when lot includes coins
of all denominations. For minor proof
sets, however. when ordered separate
ly, a little more than double the face
value is charged.
The coins are struck from new and
specially prepared dies on planchets
previously burn ished, hand press in,
stead of the regular steam press being
used. When there is u smooth field
around the raised portion of a coin the
furnishing gives the surface lasting
briliancy that is very attractive.
Our silver coins still have such a
field, but the gold coins, particularly
the s. and $3.50 pieces, and the minor
coins no longer present this desirable
feature. In fact, outside of the lines
being a little finer, proofs Of these
coins differ little in appearance from
pieces struck for regular circulation.
The incused inscriptions on the gold
coins do not harAonize with the field
as did the old raised inscriptions, while
on the minor coins the field is not
smooth, and the nickel has really no
field, an excess of lettering disfguring
what is not monopolized by the Indian
head and the buffalo. The $50 and $40
pieces present artistic designs, but
proofs of these coins are far from be-
ing as attractive as were those of the
old designs pittsburgh Press.

sour scab Attacks Sweet Orange.

Sour Scab AtJackS o"eet oi""SN'
The sour scab seems to be adapt
inc itself to new hosts. The latest
addition to the citrus fruits attack
ed by the pest is the sweet orange
which was thought to be immune. II.
e. Stevens, plant pathologlst TO the
University of Florida Experiment
Station, received specimens, last
spring, of sweet seedlings which were
infected with the disease. 1t was
thought then that some mistake had
been made in the seedlings and turtl-
err developments were awaited. Inc
seedlings were sent from BuloW, Fla.
Mr.. Stevens received specimens OF
sweet orange fruits recently which
were attacked by scab. These came
from Palmetto, Fla. Scab has appar-
emily adapted itself to this new host.
Infestations should be destroyed as
soon as they are noticed. This may
be a variety which is adapting itself
to the sweet orange and If 1t Is des-
stroyed may not reappear. =, :.
The ability of scab to adapt itself
to new hosts is well known. 1t was
probably introduced from Japan on
the satsuma. Until few years ago
II attacked only few citrus fruits
among which were the sour orange,
fine satsuma and rough lemon. A re-
mort from the Florida Station in 1895
Shows that sweet oranges, kumquats,
tangerines. mandarins, the king or
ange. grapefruit and shaddock were
nearly or quite exempt. Even IN
1912 the grapefruit was rarely at
tackled. Now it is severely attacked.
Within the last year reports show
that scab has adapted itself to the
sweet orange-Agricultural News
