ENLIST YOUR BOY IN CORN
CLUB WORK THIS YEAR.

Although a large number of South
ern farm boys took part in corn club
work last year, there were not half as
many as there should have BEEN Many
farm boys now have bank accounts
that they started by selling corn from
their prize acres. but there should be
twice as many happy. ambitious South
ern farm boys with such accounts.
And why not your boy among them,
kind reader? So now. with the reali-
zation that the possibilities or corr club
work have not been touched. every
farmer should resolve that his boys
and those of his neighbors will be en-
rolled in the clubwork this year.
The number of boys enrolled de-
ponds not on the state agents in
charge of the work. but on the parents
in charge of the boys. Your 20 NAV
notice the prize offer and yearn TO
enlist in the work. but he usually hes
itates and fails to contest for the
prizes unless he is encouraged by his
parents at the proper time.
Another thing that will help is COM
munity support. Why not have your
Local Farmers Union or farmers cIQp
offer prizes for the best yields of corn
made in your neighborhood? Nearby
merchants might offer prizes also. IN
fart with the cooperation of armer
n business men, there is hardly a
community in the South that could not
offer a creditable list of prizes in q
tion to those offered by the states.
When YOUR local corn club has been
organized get some men who are good
corn growers to make talks before n
boys on corn growing. Let your boy
know that the money made from ms
prize acre will be his, less perhaps d
usual charge for rent, and thus let M
bition and friendly rivalry start in the
bows of your community a desire to
pYceI and to possess real money OF
their own. When the boy gets the
money the sale of his corn brings, it is
impossible for him to be a loser ana
he will gladly enter club work.
IT Is impossible to estimate the pos
sibilities of corr clubs for doing good
! nthe South if neighborhoods VIII only
take hold Of the work.-ProgressiVe

THE COST OF A SOW.

How much does it cost to keen a
brood SOW a year? Did you aver fig
ure it?
At an agricultural short-course
school at the University OF Wisconsin
featuring pork production, pigs and
pork products were On display. Around
the walls were pithy instructive DOS
tiers. One said. eff it costs $25 per
year to keep a brood SOW and she has
ten pigs, each pig costs $3.50 when it
isSbcRn" IF she has eight they stand
you at 1928 And so On down to four
pigs costing 1925 each. 1t brought
out a thought worthy of attention at
this time of year when the spring pig
crop is soon to arrive. If we are 60
ing to feed a SOW to raise pigs she
will be a better business proposition
if she is busy and working full ca
pacity.
Nothing can be done now to regu-
late the size of filters narrowed this
spring but the per cent raised is very
largely in the hands of the owner. The
feed from now on has much to do with
the thrift OF the SOW, her milk supply
an dthe vigor of the pigs. The most
of the development of-the unborn pigs
is in the month preceding narrowing.
Tt takes feed with protein and ash,
blood and flesh and bone-making ma
teriaI. Alfalfa will furnish much of
this, but protein hay or pasture should
be fed all through the year so the SOW
can have a working supply il it is to
be depended upon. Soy beans and
clover both furnish. cheap protein;
there is nothing better than mill;
tankage furnishes mor protein for the
money if protein must be purchased,
and if it cannot be h~ome-supplied it
should by all means be bought.
1t is quite noticeable that the man
who is on hand and looking after de-
tails at narrowing time is the lucky"
hog raiser. His SOW is put in. the pen
she is expected to occupy some time
before. the pigs arrive-she is at home
in the place.
Will you try putting the pigs in a
basket as soon as they are born and
carrying them to a warm place for
two hours? The, SOW viii not worry
and the pigs will not suffer but get

,PUTs MONEY IN THE GROUND

Potato growers have often quoted
this rule: Cheap seed. dear potoes;
dear seed, cheap potatoes. Which be-
ing interpreted means that when pota-
toes are cheap in the spring a large
area will not be planted and they Will
be dearer in the fall, and vice versa
We are asked whether that rule. VIII
apply this year, whether dear potatoes
will induce so many to plant that they
will be cheap next fall; or whether the
extraordinary prices now prevailing
will not reduce. the acreage to such an
extent as to result in a small crop
next fall. We don't know having IN
memory no prices like the present and
no past experience OF which to base
a prediction. But the opinions and
observations of growers are sure. to pc

Clarence Lane
Stars In Real
Football Game

Clarence Lane, one of the best
short distance swimmers in the world
is a real football star. Kamehameha
did not use the young amateur this
season On account OF the fact that
they did not want to take any chances
with their star norman. But Lane
had his chance after all.
The Seniors and Juniors staged a
match on Saturday afternoon aud the
Juniors won out by a score of I'd 0
on fluke run. The Juniors were COM
posed of members from the first team
with the addition of Lane at quarter
back. Lane bucked the line, ran the
ends and proved to be a real star.
Weston Dover played quarter for
the Seniors, and showed some of the
work which made him a star last
year. The lineup of the Seniors was
as follows: Hussey, |. e.; Richmond.
l. t.; Cobb, I. g.; "Sneaky Spiral
Kane, c.; All Kou, r. g.; Fuller, r. t.;
MCGUIRE, r. e.; Dover. q. b.; Groves,
!. h.; Dawson, r. H.; Gohier, f. b. A
strange part of the whole proceeding
was the fact that some Of the Seniors
had never played before, but put up
a good brand of football throughout.

Y. N. win Have Hard Fight in
Game With Fort Kam.; Town

Honolulu football fans will have an
opportunity to watch two real games
Of football this week when the Y. NJ

the Town Team clashes with the Isl
Infantry. It Is a case of take your
choice either way.
In the Saturday game the Y. NJ. c.
A. is a big favorite, but they were al.
so big favorite In the last game, SO
this will not have any direct effect
on the play But the Y. NJ. players
must not overlook the fact that the
Fort Kan crowd has a real football
team, and perhaps the best coached
team In the islands.
Well Coached
This team is coached by Captain
Meyer, a former navy star. He has
worked up a series of plays which
should work to advantage against the
Y. NJ. In Lewis, Stoddard. McVey and
Irwin, the Fort Kan team has a real
backfield. Lewis is the speed burner
of the squad and is expected to show
something against the Y. NJ. aggrega-
ton. McVey is an excellent line
plunger. while Stoddard can bit the
line and run the ends. Irwin isn't as
fas. a. Davis, the y. M. quarter, but
he is a heady player and gets a lot
out of his team.
Urban is one of the lest ends in the
islands and Cantele and the big cen
ter are really good players. The "I''
team will perhaps, have the advan-
tage in the line, but Coach Meyer is
expected to frame a strong defense
against Lewis, Whitcomb and the
other stars.
In the Sunday game the Town Team
and 1st Infantry are expected to put
up a strong fight. The teams appear
to be about evenly matched, and the
1st Infantry will make an effort to
make up for the defeat at the hands
of the Baby REGIMENT.

Especial ar.BuIietiu oor sspoud encs.)

OAHU COLLEGE, December A.
Punahou Academy spent q short
time after chapel exercises yesterday
morning in celebrating its fifteenth
consecutive football championship.
President Griffiths made a speech, in
which he, summed up the factors that
contributed to the seasons success
and then he reviewed the advantages
that accrue to such a school as Puma
hou from winning a football cham
pionship.
Mr.. Griffiths spoke Of the lack OF
undesirable features during the past
season. He was glad for the high per.
sonnet Of the team, and for. the manly
way in which the players-though al
ways fighting hard-conducted their
sport.
"Dud' Pratt's leadership was spoken
of and it was brought out that all the
teams hold Pratt in very wholesome
respeCt-a fact which is emphasized
when it Is remembered that Punahou
has not lost a game when Pratt has
been with the team.
Coaches Midkiff, Bergman, Silver
man and Marsh came in for a share Of
the credit. Especial note was made
of the fact that the two midget teams,
Bluffs" and Blues" will be able to
furnish excellent material for the
teams Of the next few years. This ma
terial will be very much in demand,
for by graduation or by operation Of
the notorious "four.year rule" Puma.

men are: w. Akana, H. Alexander, o.

and Kee Kork Zane.
The work Of making a team next
year will be particularly difficult.
There are left Of the veterans only

who will be available for next year

Except where for trade reasons ad.
vances in price have been made neces-
sary, sporting goods will cost no more

ticles by the war tax law passed by
congress and signed by the President
early this month. The tax on sport
ing goods is per cent Of the selling
price to be paid by the buyer, and
there Is a further tax Of / n per cent

Of the prominent sporting goods deal

dozen will continue to sell at that
price and the same holds true for all
other goods. However, in the case OF
more expensive golf balls the price
has been raised from 50 a dozen to
SO dozen by one dealer. This ad-
vance was made necessary, however,
because of the high cost Of rubber of
good quality, and had been announced
6efore the law went into effect.
Another firm, one of whose special
ties is footballs, has advanced the
price OF its best football from S. to SIS.
and not because the price of pigskin
