has been content to stay around New
York, where only ten-round no-deci-
sion affairs are permitted, and where
he is in little likelihood to losing his
title.
A majority of boxing critics in New
York pick White to beat both Welsh
and Shugrue in twenty-round affairs.
The Chicago boy possesses something
that neither Welsh nor Shugrue has
shown-a punch. The champion and
Jersey City boy have shown great
skill as boxers, but neither demon
strated that he had a wallop that
Guild put a man away.
White landed snappy left on Shu-
grue at times in their last meeting in
New York that Jared the Jersey boy
badly. Had he not played a wait
ing game White, it was thought,
might have scored a knockout over
Shugrue. -

GRADING SEED CORN.
May BE Graded Better Before Ears
Are SheIIod Than Afterward.

May BE Graded Better Before Ears
Are sheIIed Than Afterward.
Seed corn may be graded better be-
fore the ears are shelled than after
ward. The United States department
Of agriculture specialists in corn inves-
LEGATIONS consider it difficult to grade
shelled corn satisfactorily.
If the seed ears vary greatly as to
size of kernel they should be separated
into two or three grades according to
size of kernel. These grades should
be shelled separately, tested in the
corn planter and numbered to CORE
spond with the number on the planter
plates that are found to drop them
most uniformly. These arrangements
can be completed before the rush Of
spring work begins. ss= ~ H.. ~
The first operation in properly she'll
ing seed corn is the removal of the
small kernels from the tips Of the ears
butts. The former are less productive
than the other kernels of the ear The
round butt kernels are as productive
as the other kernels of the ear, but do
not plant uniformly in a planter.
Smelling seed corn carefully by hand
is profitable. The greater the acreage
planted the greater the profit. Into a
shallow pan or box each ear should be
shelled separately, rejecting any worm
eaten or blemished kernels. If the
supply from the one ear appears good
and contains no poor kernels it is pour
ed into the general supply and another
ear shelled in the same way.

(By Tim Sullivan)

Mike Gibbons was just too popular.
That was the only source of the peck
of trouble into which the boxing
phantom" slid, partly, perhaps. be-
cause he is his own manager. But
whether it was because he was his
OWE manager or not, the fact re,
mains he had too many dates. He
was scheduled to meet Eddie Nc
Ghoorty of Oshkosh, the man who
licked him once, at Hudson, on Jan.
lS, and three days later he. was to
meet Jimmy Clabby, the Hoosier, at
Milwaukee. Mike said he was afraid
he would be shy the necessary pep
for both meets and he got Mike Col
Inns, promoter of Hudson fights, to
call off the McGhoorty affair. Col
Inns, who still protests that Gibbons
told him to arrange a fight" some
time after Jan. 49," consents to this
Plan because he thinks that if Glib
bcns ticks Clabby at Milwaukee, it
will be an added attraction for the
Hudson fight.

maggot from placing eggs about the
stems ct the plants has been demon
strated. but in spite of it's effectiveness
this method Of protecting cabbage has
not been generally adopted by truck
growers. Tar pads will protect early
cabbage from the pest at a cost of
about $40 per thousand plants
Truck growers. who are subject to
losses by the cabbage maggot. are
urged by the New York agricultural
experiment station to test the tar pads
experimentally as basis for more ex-
tensive operations against this pest.

The Cabbage Maaaot.


The cabbage maggot is the principal
handicap in the production Of early
cabbage and caulif10wer. The insect
is present In most communities where
early cabbage is grown and OCCASION
ally causes extensive damage to this
crop.
OF the insecticides that are employed
to destroy naggots about the roots of
the plants carbolic acid emulsion has
generally been regarded as the most
efficient. Tests with the emulsion at
recommended strengths have demon
strated that it will prevent the hatch
ing of the eggs and is fatal to the
younger stages Of the larvae. 1t may.
however, cause injury to young seed
lings and is not safe remedy for the
treatment Of plants recently set in the
field. III ~

Kansas SiIo Census.

Kansas SIIo Census.
Kansas has 7,137 silos. This is some
thing like f1fty-one silos to every coun-
ty in the state. but there are twenty
one counties having less than a dozen
and several having no silos whatever
within their boundaries. Five of the
rich Kansas counties have more than
200 silos and are reporting constant
Increases. The silo is changing the
sky line Of the Sunf1ower State, and
1t Is changing other things as well.
For one thing the stave, pit, brick,
concrete and other forms of silos are
helping to make Kansas one of the
really prosperous states of the Union.
1t might help for the agricultural au-
thorities in other states to make a
census similar to the one just complet-
ed by Kansas. Comparisons are some
times stimulating.-F Progress.

Strong Early Plants.

If very strong, early plants are de-
sired. they must not be crowded in the
cold frame after they have been re-
set from the hotbed or greenhouse.
Cabbage plants should stand about one
and one-fourth inches apart; tomato
plants, two inches apart the first trans
planting and four the second. Lettuce
should have about two inches each
way in order to develop the strongest
plants.

Tommy Gibbons is getting fat.
He has passed the 40 mark, and
with. milk and eggs and nothing
much to do, he may break into the
heavy class. Mike Gibbons, his
older brother, who taught him the
game, and is now his manager, has
just refused a meet for him with
Jack Sullivan of Buffalo, N. Y, on
Jan. II. Anyhow, the Gibbons family
have enough dates this week. :

Sito Paws For Itself.

Thousands of farmers and scientists
add their testimony and proclaim pos
itively that the silo pays for itself III
one year. that it doubles or even quad
ruples the value of the feed crop. An
acre Of good silage will keep ccw or

Chicks From Double YoIked Egg.
Sometimes. double yolked eggs will
hatch. One Illinois farmer had twin
chicks from one grown together by the
tips of il right wing and a left one.
One chick lived to maturity. Usually
the double yolked egg fails to hatch.

+ ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Chop every old, useless and dying
tree out OF the orchard. keeping mem
orandum of the number of trees thus
removed and putting in an early order
for others. ....
Wood ashes are good fertilizer for
trapevihes. They, will supply the nee
essary potash for them. and if the
same amount of poultry droppings is
added to- the. ashes the undesirable.
rank growth that too much ashes some
times cause will be kept down.
Currants need little protection ex-
cept from deep SHOWS. which some
times break down the branches when
setting in the spring.
Watch the mulched Strawberries
The mulch may be too heavy. and i,
warm. muggy weather prevails there
is danger of injury. s.
There is no 1one who ought to have
q better garden than the farmer who
has allsthe land necessary with teams
and usually help to care for it.
Cold frames. hotbeds, greenhouses
and mushroom caves are all used for
forcing rhubarb, but. lacking these. one
may utilize an ordinary root cellar.
