they cannot see him in action they

There is not much meat in the dis
patches about Willard for the ring
side followers. No one would deny
the champ his just share Of the little
iron men for his feat of defeating
Johnson is worthy of q substantial
reward. But between one night
stands the big white champ might
take.a night off now and then and
display his abilities to fight hungry
public.
And perhaps the unpopularity Of
Willard as stage favorite will force
him into; the ring. again sooner than
he expected. There is little doubt
that Willard is not making a howl
ing success of his circus stunt on the
footboards. He is not as we'll adapted
to that kind of pastime as some for
mer boxer-actors were. And If press
reports can be credited Jess himself
cares little for the glare of the foot
lights. He wants the limelight but
the reflection from the little lamps
bores him.
Areturn to the ring would hardly
endanger Jess newly won title. No
one is within several years of besting
him in tistic argument. At least,
not from surface appearance. Some
one may develop as rapidly as did
Jess himself and humble the western
fight king, but the chance of this oc-
curing is remote. Jess had been
plugging at the boxing game for four
or five years before he accomplished
the "white hope" dream of the ring
side sports.
The champion is expected to fight
about every second week. The pub
lie thinks of him as fighting man
and to hold the affection Of fight fans
he must fulfill their expectations.
That attitude accounted for Jeffries'
great popularity. Jeffries wanted to
fight every man big enough to stand
up to him. Stage work should be a
by product of champions real work.

fighting ability as mercenaries was
doubtful
General Botha judged the temper
of the cOuntrymen correctly and
there was no internal trouble after
he marched out of the Boer colony.
The fact will give Botha his page in
history more than any other circum-
stance in his career. The British
troops outnumbered the Germans
to l. The circumstances of the cam
paign in German Southwest Africa
are not like it to increase anybody's
military reputation. Victory was
too inevitable for them.
/ Genius Demonstrated. ...:-
General Botha's genius is demon
strated by the fact that he carried the
war into German territory at all;
only a statesman of iron qualities
would have risked marching his
troops from the homeland after so
recently putting down civil revolt.
The circumstances gives Botha a
place among the few great leaders
revealed by the present war.
Most successful offensive by the
Allies along the western battlefront
during the present year has been in
progress during the last week. Be-
tween Arras and Nuve Chapelle, a
distance Of 20 miles, about 100000.
French and British troops have been
trying to bend the enemy's front to-
ward the first German line of COM
municatiOns.
Lost Many Guns.
The French: troops, who have been
operating from Arras northward
along 10 miles of twisting roads,
have pressed forward between one
and three miles. The terrain recov-
cred from the Germans fully COM
pensates for the recent German sue
cesses before .Ypres. The Germans
have lost more than 100 large and
small guns, besides several thousand
prisoners. The inability of the Ger
mans to hold their positions is prob
ably due in part to the employment
of newly trained troops. If the
French can break through the Ger
man lines, these troops will be in
difficult position. The presence of
veterans will :be required to avoid a
disaster, unless the Germans rectify
their lines by a long retirement.

Proper Ways for Selecting
and Caring for Seed Corn

Blacksburg, Va, Nov. l..-E. r.
Hodgson. associate agronomist. Viz
ginia Polytechnic Institute and Vir-
ginia Experiment station. has this to
say about the selecting Of and car
ing for seed corn:
while shucking time Is not the best
time to select seed corn. 1t Is next to
the best. / believe and am pre-
pared to cite authority. that the best
time Is when the corn is standing In
the field. for then one can pick his
corn from a certain height from the
ground. which Characteristic he wishes
to maintain through subsequent gen
erations: but this time and opportu-
nifty which we speak OF as best has
passed for this year, and l wish now
to call attention to the next best
method.
Select corn as YOU shuck it by
throwing the best corn in a pile to
itself; this corn which you have set
aside should be about ten times the
quantity you will need for seed, for
1t will fool you when you examine
ii closer at seeding time. Some of
the best ears apparently viii cure up
poorly. and some of the indifferent
ears will cure up we'll
Now how are we going to care for
this seed corn in oruer to terminate
a high percentage next spring? Are
we going to throw II in pile in one
corner of the corn crib or barn? Most
empha tically not. This seed should
be well cared for and many excellent
ways are recommended In the mid
die Atlantic and Southern States any
way is good which will afford cover
and allow free passage OF air around
each ear. The string method is very
good; also the pole method. both of
which are within the financial reach
OF all
This Is proba bly, the cheapest way
OF ell and is ore of the most rapid
in procedure. Simply take a piece of
binder twine and fold 1t the desired
length. Put an ear OF corn at the
fold and tic IL there. This will he the
bottom ear when the string is hung
up. Next, place an ear of corn on top
of The first ear and tie it. and so on
until the string is all used up. AS ]
nave said this corn should DE hung
up where it will be sheltered and nave
plenty of air This is an excellent
method also to keep the seed from
attacks oS rats and mice.
This method is little more ex-
pensive than the string method. How
ever. the cosr becomes very small
when considering the number of years
one will last, Simply take a piece of
timber two inches wide bv four inches
thick. any length up to eight feet.
Drive two rows of twenty-penny spikes
not to be closer to each other than
four inches. This will allow plenty of
air space when there is an ear on
each spike. Next back four OF these
spiked timbers up TO each other and
spike them together placing them on
base for self-support.

X-RAI HELPS BODY

New York. Nov. l9.-The beneficial
effect Of the x-ray in cancer cases Is
apparently not due TO the effec It of
the x-ray on the growth itself. but
to its action in intensely stimulating
the production of lymphooytes, va

Institute staff
DR. Murphy recently made series
OF four experiments upon ats 10 de-
termine whether the rays acted fav-
orably on the erowths themselves, or
merely aided the natural forces Of the
body to fight the growths.
The rats waicn Ar. Murphy took for
his experiment were all cases of xpou-

had not been deliberately infected
