DAVE DANFORTH.

Lefty Dave Danforth has been
with the White Sox for two years.
He graduated to the big show from
the Louisville Colonies, in the Amer
lean association. where he was a
whizz among the slabbers in 1915,
winning a big majority of his games
and establishing some strikeout rec
ords that got him a COB Of public
ity.
on the strength Of his showing
with the Colonies he was heralded
as a phenom when he went up 20
the Sox, and although he had a
world of stuff his wildness detracted
from his efficiency on the mound
Last year ne won five games for the
Sox and lost a like number. He
was accused Of using the emery ball
by several American league man
ayers. but the charge was never
pressed, though along with a great
many other pitchers he has been
under suspicion since that time.
His work this year has been Of the
in-and-oUt variety though he has
won big percent Of the games ne
has finished. ROwland's method Of
using two and three pitchers in
many a ball game has given Dan
forth lots of work and though he
may not get into the worlds series
against the Giants. he will be ready

probably be among those Rowland

JOE REM
JOE BENZ
by JACK VEIOCK

Joe Benz is brother pitcher Of
Reb Russell, the sensational White
SoX sOuthpaw, and also a brother
in-law OF Russell. but in point of
service ne Is somewhat OF a veteran.
for he is now serving MS seventh
year as a member OF Comiskey's
hurting corps
Benz graduated 20 the major
leagues from Des Moines. where he
was developed by Frank Isbell, the
old Bald Eagle Of the White Sox of
other days. Ivy secured Benz from
the Decatur club Of the Three-I
league, and though Joe was never
rated as world eater in thu West
ern league. Isbell thought so well Of
him that he persuaded Comiskey to
take him on.
During his first three years with
the Sox Benz failed 20 win as good
as 500 percent Of his games. He
was always capable Of working hard,
however. and he saved many a
game for the Sox during the seasons
OF 1912 and 1913.
Within the past four years the
big Teuton slabber has been doing
better work. His best year was in
1915, when he won Is and lost 10
games. He was born at New AL
bany. Ind. in 1897, and played his
first season in organized ball with
the Clarksburg club in the Western
Pennsylvania league He is a big
pitcher. standing six feet one inch
in height and weighing close TO 200
pounds. He has plenty of speed
and when he is right opposing bats

AT THE OLIVER.

Mile. Trixie Raymond, who
comes with Al Jolson in Robinson
Crusoe, jr," is one Of the colony of
artists blown thither by the vicis-
STUDIES OF war. Mile. Raymond is
the premier ddnseuse OF the big

This is her first visit 10 this coun-
try. She was a decided favorite
abroad. all over the continent and
England too. and was just setting
forth from Paris on a tour with her
organization when the outbreak of
the war smashed all OF her plans.
Mile. Raymond is a native Of
Barcelona, but fearing that her
own country would soon be involved
in the struggle. she sought a haven
here. rather than 10 take any
chance at home. Upon her ar
rival she appeared in a series of
benefit performances at the Metro
pOlitan opera house, where ner
dancing attracted the attention of
J. J. Shubert, who Immediately en-
gagged her for the Jolson tour. Mile
Raymond is acquiring a working
knowledge of English and, when
the tour terminates next Novem-
Der. expects 10 return 10 New York.
feeling quite at home amid Ameri-
can surroundings. Mile. Raymond
maintains that the reason Ameri-

with the dance. She insists that all
dramas set TO music, and that each
contains a complete narrative if
correctly Interpreted through &C

KEEP MILK COOL AND CLEAN
Warm Weather 10 Trying on DaIrymen,
but More Especially on Women
Keep Vessels Clean.

The season Is rapidly approaching
when greater care must be taken OF
milk. Warm weather is trying on the
lairyman, but more especially on the
farmers wife, who must care for the
milk from few cows. Preparations
should therefore be made to keep the
milk cool and clean.
The facilities for keeping milk on
the average farm are very inadequate.
Not enough cool space Is available for
the average farm woman, hence she
has difficulties In saving the milk and
ripening the cream evenly.
In the first place, the milk vessels
are important They should be OF the
right kind, with no seams In the pans,
pals, ETC., to harbor germs. There
should be plenty of vessels and they
should be kept scrupulously clean,
aired, steamed and summed OCCASION
ally.
A refrigerator Is almost necessity
on the farm these days. There are
many perishable foods as we'll as milk
to be kept. The cost of refrigerator
is not great when the utility and econ
omy of keeping foods are considered.

MILK FEVER IS BOTHERSOME
Danger Among Cows Appears Great.
est In Late Summer-keep Animal
In Barn and Feed Hay.

Milk fever Is rather serious trou-
BILE with good cows, as 1t Is said that
none but well-bred, heavy-produclng
cows have 1t. 1t seems to be more
prevalent among CRASHED cows.
The danger of milk fever among
cows seems to be greatest in late sum-
mer or early fall, notably June, July,
August and September. The recon.
mendation Is to put the cow In the
barn and feed dry hay about week
before she comes fresh. Three or
four days before calving the cow Is
given a dose Of salts with little GIN
ger. Another dose Is also given five
or six hours after the calf Is born. A
bucket of warm water should be given
the cow two or three times day. She
should not be allowed to have cold
water for some time.

stage for eating has passed.
Scallop or pattypan squashes occur

Summer CrOokneCli is also much plant
ed and is Il good variety. These
SquaSheS have short vines and are
usually called bush forms. English
forms of suAi&"r SquaShcs are called
vegetable n#rrUWS. and can be OBJ
tanned from many American SeedSmen.
There Is also an Italian summer squash
under the name of COcOzelle. which is
offered by few SeedSmen. These last
have long vines, and should be given
as much as eight or ten feet between
hills.
Winter squaShcs such as Hubbard
Green and yellow, Delicious and Bos-
ton Marrow require the cultural treat
ment given above. but should be given
ten to twelve feet distance between
hills. Winter sQuashes should be
stored in a dry place where the tenn
perature does not go below 45 degrees
or 80 degrees +. An upstairs room Is
much better for this purpose than
cellar. The fruits must be thoroughly
ripcned, but not frosted.

Summer SquaSheS are to many an at
tractive addition to the home garden.
They may be planted yet in practically
any part Of the country, and their cul-
ture is easy. Two or three hills will
furnish enough for an average sized
family. They are not fastidous as to
soils, though they, like most garden
plants, prefer warm, sandy loan. The
most important requirements for their
growth are abundance of manure and
good cultivation. The hills may be
spaced five or six feet apart. The
plants will occupy the ground all sum-
mer If the fruits are harvested at the
most disable stage.
SquaShes are tender plants, and cam
not endure the slightest frost, so seed
should not be planted until the soil is
we'll warmed. Ten or dozen seeds are
planted usually in each hill. These
should finally be thinned to one or two
plants. The soil must be stirred by
shallow cultivation until the plants
cover the soil.
There are in use in this country sew
eral types Of these squaShes. They
must all be used while very immature ;

TRANSFERRING BEES.

College Park, July Invaluable
suggestions are offered to Maryland
beck eepers in a circular by G, c. Gale.
of the Extension Service, Mr., Gale
says In part:
"Transferring may be accomplished
IN several ways, but the following IL
suggested as the easiest:
A frame hive provided with one
or two frames OF worker comb
or foundation Is placed on the
stand OF the colony to be trans
ferred, and the latter colony set to one
side and turned upside down. A box
large enough to invert over this colony
is then secured and the bees are
drummed up into 1t by constantly beat
ing on the sides Of the hive with
sticks. When most Of the bees have
gathered in the box they may be
shaken on cloth placed in front OF
the new hive and started running in
by gently smoking them. The queen
must be with the bees II the colony is
to establish itself.
Now the combs Of worker brood
(not the drone brood), in the old box
may be cut out, fitted and tied with
raffia or string into empty frames and
given to the bees in the new hive
Any remaining space should be filled
with frames of drawn worker comb or
full sheets of foundation. The re-
naming wax In the old hive may be
melted up and the hive Itself dis
posed Of.

RIGHT THINNING AIDS TREES
Helps to Produce Marketable Fru"
and Secures Best Selling and Most
Profitable Crops.

Proper thinning helps trees to pro-
duce marketable fruit each season;
tends to avoid danger Of alternating
crops. Secures best selling and most
profitable crops.
Care should be used by pickers not
to break off the fruit buds for the fol-
lowing year. Never allow the orchard
boxes filed with the fruit to stand In
the sun.
Where possible, pick fruit during
the coolest part Of the day.
Picking at proper time is just as
important as any other part of the
work.
Fruit picked too early is usually I'M
fit for food.
Fruit picked too late is usually too
ripe for shipment.
Apples picked after heavy frost DO
not hold up well,
Rain on fruit that Is maturing In.
jures the keeping quality.
Care should be exercised in picking
the different kinds of fruit so the mar
ketable qualities will not be injured.
Proper packing is just as important
as proper sorting, for good neat
pack helps sell the fruit.

ESTIMATE OF DAYS FLOWING
Time Required to Pillow an Acre De.
ponds on Size Of Pillow and Mum.
Der of Horses Used.

Farmers frequently want to know
how much land can be plowed in day
and how much work it requires to
break an acre. Records ut the Missouri
College of Agriculture on 2,122 acres OF
land show that it required 3.4 hours OF
man labor and 90 hours of horse labor
for each acre. OF course, the time re-
CURED to pillow an acre will depend on
the size of the pillow and the number
of horses used. A fourrhorse gang
pillow with two Pinch bottoms will nv
erage about Alp acres day of SO
hours when 1t Is running six inches
deep. The same pillow running eight
inches deep will break quarter of an
acre less. A three-horse sulky with
II or 16-inch bottom will average about
90 acres at six-inch depth, and
about 2 acre less for the eight
inch depth. A two-horse l4-inch walk
ing pillow will break about la acres
day ut six-inch depth and about Z
acre less at the eight-inch depth.

LATE POTATO BLIGHT SPRAY
Work Should Begin as Soon as Plants
Are Six Inches High and Continue
at Intervals.

The weather conditions which favor
the spread of late potato blight are
humid, still atmosphere with a tenn
perature around 70 degrees f. Above
70 +. and below so F. there Is prac-
tically no termination of the blight
spores. Since spraying for late blight
is a preventive rather than curative
measure, spraying should begin as soon
as the plants are six inches high and
should continue at intervals of one or
two weeks, depending upon weather
conditions until near the time OF ma
turity.
The effectiveness Of spraying as
preventive depends upon the thorough
ness with which it Is done. 1t Is essen
tial that the whole plant be kept con-
stantly covered with the mixture If
the blight spores are to be prevented
from finding q place of entrance into
Its surface.
The wheels of the sprayer do not
seem to injure the vines sufficiently to
be source of apprehension, even
when they are large and cover the
ground, as is often the case late In the
season,
