TRACK AND FIELD MEET
OF MCLEAN COUNTY

The Third Annual Mclean
County Track and Field Meet
will be held May 26. The place
for holding the meet this year
has not been. definitely decided
but Will be announced next week
1t has BEEN held for the past
two years at Underwood, and
Washburn would like very much
to- have the meet here this year.
We have a good place for runn-
ing the events and our little
park on the banks of the Mis-
souri, cannot be beaten any
where in the state as a picnic
ground. However, if some Of
the county schools will be kept
from participating because If
our distance from the center Of
the county we are willing to. go
where it is most convenient for
the majority, not lessening one
whit our hearty invitation to- be
the guests Of Washburn, for the
day.
1t is expected that the meet
this year will be a little bigger
and better than ever before for
the indications are that a larger
crowd and more participants
will be there than ever before.
A substantial prize will be given
to the school winning the most
points and probably a medal to
the boy or girl from the local
school winning the most points
for his or her school-Contri-
buted.

HOW -: -:
To Plant and Nurture Seeds
For Your Garden

- OWING PANsY sEEDs.-A i've
- cent package Of mixed pansy
seed will be sufficient to plant
They should be started indoors
in box full of rich soil and be kept In
q slightly shaded place. The dirt
should be damp all the time. In fact,
it is hard to give .pansies too much
water. After all danger Of frost Is
past they can be .transplanted out Of
doors in any place you desire them to
bloom. The north side Of house is
generally the best, because pansies re-
quire considerable moisture and shade.
With a little care they can be made
to bloom until the frost comes In the
fall. It is possible in some climates to
keep the plants alive over winter, but
it is more desirable to start new ones
in the spring.
The plants will soon be spoiled IL not
treated in time. The fungoid disease
is caused by spores, which float in the
air and settle on the plants. The usual
remedies, such as spraying with to-
baccO water, emulsion Of kerosene and
insecticides, will prove Of no avail
Plants confined in rooms which are
not often aired are the ones most like
ly to contract the disease.
Bush Nasturtiums.-Plant in ordi-
nary garden soil. Dig deep and break
up the Jumps Select a sunny place. In
May plant the seeds one-half inch deep
and three inches apart. Water freely
all summer.
China Pinks.-Prepare good bed Of
manure for seeds. Sow in the house
and in early May in open sheltered
bed, eight inches apart.
Phlox.-Sow in the house and trans.
plant as soon as frost is out Of the
ground in a sunny part of the garden.
Plant one-quarter inch deep in good
soil,
Hyacinth Bean "a climber).-Sow in
the house now and transplant in early
May. Soak the beans in warm water
over l.i.A,. .'l;int ol:y ilvI deep in
sunny position. Water freely.
Verbena good for borders).- Soak
seeds few hours in warm water and
sow In seed boxes filed with light, rich
soil. Cover one-fourth inch deep, press
down firmly and water. When an inch
high transplant in sunny place in a
garden in May. about ten inches apart
each way.
Zinnia.-Plant one-quarter inch deep
in good soil and as soon as frost is out
Of ground set in sunny places. Use in
a group or border.

Kid Shieler, Of Frederick, in the sem
windup Of rounds. Marvin worked be-
fore some fistic followers yesterday and
showed that he is fighter of no mean
ability. He fights with both hands, pos
sesses good punch, and is in good con-
dition. He surely will make his opponent
travel to take home the bacon.
Shieler is a rough and ready fighter
and has a good reputation in the East.
Both men will fight from the tap of the
bell There will be three other Ground

MAJOR LEAGUES ARE
ON BRINK OF WARFARE

New York, Oct T.-The American and
National leagues today are on the brink
OF warfare.
Right now It seems that nothing can
avert a serious clash except an apology
from Ban Johnson for his many verbal
attacks upon the National League during
the past two years. And he never has
been known to back down from any stand
he has taken
JohnsOn's most recent criticism Of the
older organization concerning the Mo
Graw incident, aroused John K. Tener to
anger and the National League president
Is quoted as having heatedly said:
Ban Johnson should wash his own dirty
linen before he attempts to do any clean
ing for the National League I won't
stand for any further criticism from
Johnson concerning the operations Of my
league"
The entire National League, II Is said,
has backed up Tener in his reply-attack
upon Johnson. The rnagnates Of the old
league long have been incensed by what
they term "JOhnson's slurring remarks, -
and his most recent utterances merely
have added fuel to the smolderfng FIRE.
There has been much Ill-feeling be-
tween the two leagues ever since the Fed
eral League days
Johnson frequently "panned" the Ma
tional Leaguers openly for their attitude
toward the Feds. They did not resent It
openly then because affairs then were in
too critical a condition to chance a break
between the two leagues that were fight
ing the Feds.
