Miss Catherine Brown, Just
Three Feet High, Holds
the Crowd at the
Sportsman's Show.
By FRED HAWTHORNE.

Miss Catherine Brown, four years
old and quite all OF three feet in
height, was the cenCre or interest at
the Sportsmen's Show in Madison
Square Garden yesterday. Miss Brown,
who is the daughter of Commodore
Alfred Brown, of the Volunteer Lie
Saving Corps, the man who swan the
Panama Canal, does diving specially
ali her own in the big tank at the
Fourth av. end Of the Garden.
In common with all headliners IN
any line of endeavor, Miss Brown is
very particular and hard to please, and
the management treats her every whlm
with due Difference.
In the afternoon Miss Catherine APP
peared at the tank with her father and
prepared TO do her specially. Daintily
she discarded her pink bathrobe and
stepped forth in sombre black, with a
vermilion scarf bound about her
naughty head
A nervous young man stepped up
beside Miss Brown and announced that
"the youngest diver and swimmer IN
the world" would do straight dive.
The young miss bowed low TO right and
left, arched her tiny hands above her
head and Shot into the water as though
she were an infant seal.
Next, said the nervous young man,
would be a "Yiddisher" dive by Miss
Brown. A grin rippled about Miss
Browns rosebud mouth as she brought
her hands, palms upward, under her
chin and again cleayed the waters OF
the pool. The audience was cheering
and clapping b. this time, and the
Brown programme was going off de-
liciously, smoothly. But 1t was too
good TO last.
Miss Brown will now do the Annette
Kellermann splash dive said the
young man in black. bowling low before
the piscatorial star.
But, no. Dark clouds gathered on
Miss Browns brow and she pouted and
stamped one pink foot. Commodore
Brown FASTENED 10 her side and held
a whispered conversation with his
oyerbearing daughter.
SAYS she doesn't think she's get
ting enough money, and besides, she
wants il announced as the Catherine
Brown rocket dive" confded Mr.
Brown in a tremulous voice. This was
made known TO John l.. Dorgan, the
manager of the show, who hurried TO
Miss Browns side and agreed abjectly
TO all her terms. Then, and not I'M
til then, did the diving star make her
leap and emerge from tho water TO
acknowledge the plaudits Of the
crowd.
In a public statement issued later
Miss Brown declared that it was not
professional jealousy of Miss Keller
man that prompted her to take the ac-
tion she did, as she harbored no i'll
feelings toward the Australian swim

APPLEBY WINS A
BILLIARD TITLE
Defeats Mathews in Class
C Tourney, After a
Lively Match.
By BRIGGS

Edgar T. Appleby, the Columbia stu

sotion of the tournament. won the ma
tional amateur championship at 49,
Lalkline billiards in Class c last night
a. Dovle's Academy. Appleby defeated
c. p. Mathews, Of Brooklyn, by score
Of 200 points to lS5 after a game that
.aw both men in the lead at different
stages.
Mathews held the lead until the
twenty-eight inning, when his score
read 115 to Appleby's 81. When the
Columbia student came to the table for
his turn, however, he proceeded 10
click off a beautiful cluster Of forty
five points, mostly by clever, close bill
iards.
Although this run put Appleby in the
lead for the first time, Mathews came
right back in the thirty-fourth inning
with n pretty run of twenty-one,
placing him in the lead by two points.
In the forty-first inning, with the oails
in an easy position on the table,
Mathews mad his last opportunity OF
catching his rival. The best he could
do. however. was to add three points to
his total, falling on a simple draw.
Appleby then ran out his total with
an unfinished string of six points, Civ
ing him the championship.

national amateur champion in Class A,
then presented Appieby with the cham

before becoming the permanent. prop
erty of the winner. John I. Doyle also,
presented Appleby with a diamond
stickrin as first prize and gold watch
for the high average of 10. Appleby'5
high runs were as, 20 and % and
Mathews's 81, 81 and 16.
The largest crowd of the tournament
turned out last night to watch the play
for the championship, and many of the
experts predicted that Appleby will
soon be the national champion in Glass

MEN MUST SWIM
OR BE SUSPENDED
Order of New York A. c. in
Clash with Ruling of Amateur
Athletic Union.

The New York A. c. swimmers must
compete in the water events at the
Sportsman's Show in Madison Square
Garden tonight or stand suspended by
the Metropolitan ASSOCIATION Of the
Amateur Athletic Union.
This action was taken by the regis
tration committee Of the Metropolitan
Association last night at a special
meeting in the Garden, at which the
action of the New York A. c. IN order
ing the swimmers not to compete was
oyerruled.
II seems certain that the swimmers
who declined to swim at the Garden
on Saturday night will be on hand this
evening, and in case they do not sus-
pension will follow.
The New York A. c. men entered are
J. A. Zinnoch, Nicholas Nerich, J. c.
Wheatley, A. f.. Downes, George South
and j. II. Reilly.
II will be possible for the men 20
compete unattached by making proper
application and later return to the
New York A. c., and this may be done
rather than make an issue with the
captain of the club by dlsobeying di-
rect orders.

If the radish plants stand too thickly
thin them to stand at proper distances.
The small button radishes need not be
more than one and one-half inches
apart in the row, while the long rooted
varieties should be about three inches
apart. Thinning is often necessary to
obtain roots of large and uniform size.
Beets often come up too thickly and
should be thinned. This operation is
even more important than for radishes.
Parsnips, carrots, satisfy and early
turnips may also require attention In
this respect.
Cultural experiments at the Pennsyl-
vania State college, conducted on a
large scale, show that it is perfectly
feasible to grow potatoes between rows

Bumper Wheat Crop For Kansas.

Topeka, Kan, June 2O.-Another
bumper Kansas wheat crop in 1916 was
predicted by J.. G. Mohler, secretary
state board Of agriculture, in a report
he issued. The condition Of the 1915
crop he estimated at 92.S per cent, on a
total acreage Of S,5S6,3OO. A year ago
the crop estimate was 96.5 per cent on
S,5SO.NH: reage.
A Wh>'t crop second only to the
1s1 100000 bushels yield Of last year
is indicated. Mr.. Mohler asserted the
yield should be about $780, 900 BUSH
els.
Less than 4 per cent of the entire
acreage Of the state-estimated last
fall at S,S7O,OO0 acres-was destroyed
during the winter, and conditions at
this time are ideal for wheat growing.

TO GROW TOMATOES.

Characteristic Of the Good Plant IL .
Strong and Extensive Root.
Many growers of late tomatoes for
canning purposes underestimate the
Importance Of good plants for setting,
says a bulletin recently issued by the
New Jersey State College Of Agricul-
ture.
Under ideal weather and soil condi-
tons very small and weak plants will
live" the bulletin continues. "but the
experience Of several years past in
some parts of New Jersey has shown
that such conditions are not apt to
prevail: hence. in dry seasons and al
ways in northerly localities where re-
planting is likely to give too late a
crop. the strength of the first plants
set is an all important point. Some
planters prefer to run the risk Of los
ing plants, with the intention Of re-
planting such as are lost. rather than
to take a little extra care in produc-
ing sets of the best kind. In the un-
usual season. such as that Of 1914,
such are almost certain to
sustain q loss.
The first characteristic of the strong
plant is a strong and extensive root
system. since with such a root system
there usually goes a stock stem, which
all growers like to have. Crowded
plants annot develop the right kind Of
roots, for the simple reason that they
have not room enough for expansion.
Some growers who aim to get IN early
start by sowing seed in the greenhouse
or cold frame may often lose all they
expect to gain. because they feel COM
PEELED to utilize all the space to the
utmost by crowding the seedlings. In
many such cases field sowing with
more space between the plants would
give as good or better results with
less labor.
ut is the opinion of the experiment
station authorities that transplanting
could be done much more easily and
cheaply than many growers seem to
think. Where transplanting is not
| done. thinning is advised. Growers are
| urged to try the underwriting method
on a few rows this year. as this meth
cd promises good results"

Economy Of the Dairy Cow.

There is no question as to the n
my Of the dairy COW as a producer Of
human food. None of our domestic
animals can produce similar values
from the same quantity of digestible
food. The Holstein COW Maid Henry
produced at the Kansas experiment
station in one year 2,471 pounds Of
milk solids. a prime steer weighing
1850 pounds under test at the Mis-
souri, experiment station was found,
when chemically analysed, to have pro-
duccd in total solids 547 pounds. These
total solids included the entire carcass
of the steer. a very large per cent Of
which cannot be used as food. Every
ounce Of the material produced by the
cow was edible. and the total quantity
was nearly five times as great as that
contained in the whole body of the
steer.

Animal Food For Poultry.

Remember that until the bugs and
