. 6remen took the measure of their opponents from Thane by a tune of 9 to 9.
 The Thane and Perseverance teams have a little the edge on the Juneau team in the coming games on July 4th Both Thane and Per severance have been playing against each other and against Treadwell and Douglas, each playing several games. The Juneau team, as team, has not played a game. One game has been played on the Juneau grounds, but with split. team, and the practices of the boys have been few and far between. With the edge the others have on account of condition, the contest should be about even, as the Juneau team has better material as a whole than any of the others. Each of the other teams have some good men, but in dividual players do not make strong team.

 Last night Treadwell defeated Perseverance eight to five in the game played at the former place.
 Prospects for the Indiana Univer- sity football team next fall have been given a severe setback by the mobilization of the National Guard for service along the Mexican bor- der.

Harry Carey, who plays the leading part, has several strong scenes. perhaps the strong est being with the governor when he is asked. for a certain consider ation. to turn to evil ways to save the executive.

CULTIVATION IN AN ORCHARD |
Trees, Like Animals, Get Thirsty and
Must Have Water-Orchardist
Must Supply Il.

CBy c. W. RAPP. Department Of Horti-
culture. Oklahoma A and N. College.)
Trees as well as animals get thirsty.
The difference is that animals can sat
isfy their own wants while trees are
dependent upon cultivation. AS long
as there is plenty of rain no tree suf-
fers, but as soon as the weather be-
comes warm and dry great quantities
of water are pumped from the soil.
A big tree requires barrels of water.
Whether or not 1t can get 1t may mean
q good crop or poor one. In many
cases during the past few years It has
meant the life or death of the orchard.
Water is a necessity and the orchard
list must supply 1t. Every gallon evap-
GRATED from the soil during dry year
means a monetary loss. Every weed
is cheating the tree out Of just 80
much precious moisture. Clean and
thorough orchard cultivation is essen
tial to successful orcharding. During
the spring and summer months the or.
chard ground should be stirred every
two weeks. A better rule is to stir
the ground after each rain, and as
often in between as is needed. Such
cultivation will be more than repaid
by the quantity and quality Of fruit,
and, most important Of all. in the
length of life Of the trees.

GUN CAN'T MISS AIM NOW
Italian Officers Invention Determines

Rome. - An Italian noncommis-

vented a special telemeter for anti

For obvious reasons a detailed de-
scription of this wonderful device,
which has been adopted in all the al
lied armies, cannot be given. 1t con-

in which the object fired at, aeroplane
or airship, is reflected in such a way
that the gunner is enabled not only
to determine automatically the dis
lance between the gun and the target
but to calculate the speed Of the air.
craft
The mirror is graduated so that the
distance and the speed of the target
can be ascertained at a glance, and
no time or ammunition is lost. Pro
vided the enemy aircraft is within fir
ing range, and the range of the anti
aircraft gun has been considerably
increased of late, the chances of it's be-
ing missed when the special telemeter
is used are reduced to less than 1 per
cent.
Three out Of five seaplanes were
brought down during a recent air raid
at Ancona and about eight Austrian
aeroplanes were hit and destroyed or
captured few weeks ago at the front.

At present Germany's most serious
competitor is the Swiss chemical in
dustry, very highly developed or
ganization doing 80 per cent of the
worlds trade. Since the war this
Swiss bus.ness has increased consid
erably; hence the German manufac-
turers feel the necessity of taking
steps to gain control of this industry.
In the meantime, however, they have
been doing their best to cripple their
Swiss rivals by preventing them from
getting coal, for which Switzerland is
entirely dependent upon Germany.
