There are thousands of acres in
melons grown where I live. Our
growers prepare the land in Decem.

feet and put half bushel or more OF
manure in each check and let 1t lie
until spring to rot. Then they add a
handful of a good fertilizer on this

make up the hill and plant. When a
good stand is secured thin to two
plants. Then scatter a tablespoonful
OF nitrate OF soda around each hill
and cultivate clean. Never prune
the vines at all. In the absence OF
manure, put in the hill about bushel

$4,000 and the injunction is to restrain
the city from interfering with the rail

SHIPS MUST NOT
TURN ON SUBS
Note to Lansing Cautions Observance
Of international Law In Sea
Warfare.

Washington, May 17.-Germany, In
a note presented to Secretary Lansing
by Count Won Bernstorff Tuesday,
warns neutral governments that mer-
chant ships flying neutral flags must
obey the provision OF international
law in regard to their conduct when
stopped by a German submarine and
that they incur danger should thev
turn their ships IA the direction OF a
submarine.
The communication. dated May II
from the German embassy and signed
by Count Won Bernstorff, cites an In.
cident which occurred last January
when a German submarine fired on
the Dutch steamer Bandoeng. This
resulted. the statement says, when the
steamer did not stop upon being sig
nailed, but turned toward the U.boat
at increased speed. The submarine
commander Is said to have thought
the Bandoeng was a British vessel In
disguise and to have opened fire.

VARSITY C|NCRED
CHAMPIONSHIP
Took Second Game Of Series From A.
G. N. College by Score Of
II to 8.

Austin, Texas, May 17.-Munch and
Smith were powerless before the Uni.
versity of Texas Longhorns, and only
after eleven TALES had been counted
Olson went in and stemmed the tide.
The Farmers scored eight times. A.
& NJ. made things look uncertain in
the sixth. After they batted around
once for four runs. Carmichael went
in and escaped with two more. A. &
M. scored twice IN the third. f1igney
and Russell led A. & NJ. in hitting
the former getting two, the latter two.
Ezell, Williams and Keltner did the
star stick work for Texas. Ezell hit
a homer, Williams a three-bagger and
a single and Keltner three singles.
In the second, with the bases full
Williams made beautiful stab OF
Burns line drive and wound up A. <
Ms chances in that frame.
Sellars Thomas pitched pretty
game until the sixth, when, on &C
count Of recent illness, he weakened
somewhat.
The game was very exciting
throughout. The onslaught Of A. & NJ
in the sixth raised the rooters from
their mood Of satisfaction, and from
that inning forward every person In
the grounds, spectators and players
were on their toes. This wound ur
the season for Texas. and gave then
the state intercollegiate champion
ship. The score was II to In favol
Of Texas.

Apparatus.
w. T. Wright. professor OF
physics of Texas A. & M. College, has
designed very simple. unique piece
of apparatus for determining eoef.
ficicnt OK elasticity, or Young's Mo.
dulns. Many different types of APP
paratus for this purpose are on the
market, both foreign and American
make, but they all have Objectionable
features, such as cost. inaccuracy, diff.
nculty OF manipulation. and length Of
time required for the student to make
a test. With the purpose Of overcom-
ing these handicaps. Mr.. Wright
worked for several months last year
ON the unsolved problem and at last
succeeded through the employment OF
a method involving an entirely new
principle Of operation. His apparatus
costs about oneeighth as much as
those on the market. measures &C
curately to one twenty huhdredths
of the inch, and the average sopho
more student can run several tests
with ease and understanding IN the
usual laboratory period OF two hours
After the model had been perfected
Last year, Mr.. Wright had four sets
q constructed In the physics shor
which. since then, have been used by
all Of the sophomore engineers with
entire satisfaction to the instructors
and students. Mr.. Roberts and Mr.
Caldwell OF the Central Scientific
Company. Chicago. have examined the
apparatus carefully and they are In
terested in putting II on the marke,
for Mr.. Wright.
The many attractive features Of this
new device for the determination OF
coefficient OF elasticity. which is Q
standard experiment In the colleges
and universities. will doubtless insur,
Its general use.

EXPENSIVE OFFICE SUPPLIES.

Mr.. II. =. James. local manager for
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany. received yesterday afternoon
two brooms and three pencils from
the head office In Chicago. The
freight on same was si.67. Mr.. James
came over to town and made inyesti'
CATION and found that he could have
bought the same articles in Bryan for
Sc cents. Quite expensive articles for
the telegraph company.
