SHEEP WILL
BE PROTECTED
New Iowa Law VIII Safeguard Them
and Help Boost Iowa as Sheep
Raising
State. /.

Lee county farmers are consider
ably interested In law just enacted.
to become effective July /, 1917,
which puts strict restrictions on dogs
in the rural districts, and which seems
to be meeting with quite general ap-
prevail. The bill, which just became
a law, was drawn with a view of safe
guarding sheep, and is step toward
making sheep raising in Iowa an i'm
proved industry.
One of the main reasons that the
raising OF sheep has been a somewhat
negligible occupation in this state in
the past has been the fact that dogs,
which were allowed to run at will and
at random, made serious inroads upon
droves. With the big advance in the
price OF wool, the sheep-growing in
dustry is more promising than for
years, and many farmers in this part
Of the state, and in Lee county
in particular, are taking up the work
of marketing the wool bearing ami
mails
The new law has a provision max
ing it compulsory for the owner OF a
dog to have an extra fifty cent license
to be procured from the county au-
ditor, and for him to keep the dogs
from running at large between sun
set and sunrise.
The law also makes 1t legal and
within the rights of a farmer to shoot
on sight a strange dog which comes
upon his place. 1t is believed that
these restrictions against the rural
canine will make it possible for sheep
raisers to meet with greater success
than in the past.
The measure seems somewhat Incl
dental and trifling, but. as matter OF
fact it Is not so regarded. and many
farmers are expressing satisfaction
at its adoption on the state statute
books.

BUY SEED CORN
EARLY SAYS BARNEY
state rood and Dairy Commissioners
Gives Some Excellent Advice
to Farmers on This
subJeot.
LAW PROTECTS BUYERS
Grain Must be Properly Labelled,
Telling Where Il Was Grown
and the Name Of
the Grower.
Law PROTECTS BUYERS

IF you must buy your seed corn
this year. do SO early" is the advice
OF w B. Barney. state dairy and food
commissioner.
Buying seed is one OF the most i'm
portant pieces of work that the plant
er has to do. It is not SO easy to buy
the kind OF seed you want as some
suppose. Take your time to it and see
that you get exactly the kind Of seed
you want, to plant.
OF the various reasons for a good or
poor crop, there is none SO completely
under the control OF the farmer as the
seed. Soil, rain, heat and cold, and
seasonal conditions must be accepted
as they are; but the seed is selected
by the farmer himself
The dairy and food commissioner
enforces the agricultural seed laws
of the state, and his inspectors are
now at work sampling the various
seeds being offered for sale by the
Iowa seed dealers. The Iowa seed
law applies only to seed sold in Iowa
and we would recommend that farm
ers deal with Iowa seedmen only, un-
less they are experts ON the particu-
lar kind OF seed that they are buying.
Corn is by far the most important
seed planted by the Iowa farmer and
on it's kind and quality depends the
prosperity of our citizens; manufac-
turer, dealer, laborer, banker and
farmer are alike dependent on a sue
cessful corn crop for their success,
and, a successful crop can never be
grown from poor seed.
Records Of the Iowa State college
show that home grown seed corn will
produce from three to ten bushels
more per acre than imported seed.
Commissioner Barney is urging the
farmer who must buy his seed corn to
select the best seed corn grown in his
own neighborhood and known to be
of successful variety for his locality.
Use Other Tests.
Do not depend on the termination
|test entirely. The termination test
tells whether or not the seed will
grow, but tells nothing about the va
riety or the yield to be expected from
it. These facts must be obtained from
the seller Seed corn is now being Of
fered for sale at prices ranging from
81 to S. per bushel Good seed Is
well worth SIS per bushel. but 1t
should be s. corn II it is offered for
sale at that price. An Iowa citizen
recently paid 500 per bushel for Sc
lected strains of seed corn. The best
corn growers are those who plant the
best seed. One grower has recently
increased his yield per acre from six
ty-five to eighty-fve bushels by more
careful selection of his seed alone.
This year Dairy and Food Commits
sioner Barney has instructed his in
spectors to prosecute all dealers not
complying with the requirements of
the law. Most of our Iowa seed mer-
chants conduct an honest business.
but each year a few dishonest and In
competent dealers sell entirely too
much poor and worthless seed
The law requires that all agricul-
tural seeds offered for sale in this

GAME HAS A BLACK EYE
Even II Governor Whitman Docs Not
Knock Out Boxing, Sport Is
passing From Gen
eraI Favor.
[By II. 6. HAMILTON

limited Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, March 23.-Tex Rick
ard, veteran promoter OF boxing con-
tests, today told the United Press the
end of boxing in New York state Is
SO near he can almost feel it. Even
il Governor Whitman In the opinion
OF Rickard, should suddenly relent in
his ayowed intention OF crushing the
game in this state the sport has been
given such black eye that it never
would recover.
This, Of course. indicates beyond a
shadow of doubt that Richard. stager
OF sensational matches, no longer is to
be considered as factor in moving
for big bouts in this city OF state.
Rickard pointed out the unfavorable
publicity the game has received OF
late and added that no one could ex-
pect the high class and large crowds
OF old to attend contests here.
There is no attraction, no matter
hea great Il the boxing world, the
promoter said, that would be worth
a mans while in New York. The at
tendance would be SO small money
would be lost on any great venture in
the sport. A Moran-Willard bout,
such as staged a year ago, would
not draw enough money to pay ex-
penses and the world knows I lost no
money on that affair"
Richard fastened to add that it is
not his impression that the antics OF
a few Of the boxing crowd In this city
have had any effect on the rest OF
the country. On the contrary, he be
lieves boxing stands on firmer foot
ing in many localities right now
than ever before.
The no-decision feature In many
boxing laws, he believes. takes the
punch out Of the game.

The TslI-TaIe Tone.

Washington Star: Don't let your
tone of voice be a handicap. Unless
you take pains to modulate 4, It is
likely to be.
The manager OF an employment
bureau for high-class ONCE workers
remarked that she could tell more
about her applicants by the way they
spoke than by the way they looked.
"a woman can learn the art of dress
ing like lady, even IL she isn't one.
and even a stupid girl can acquire
taste and neatness in Dress" she
said But it is pretty hard for a
woman without cultivation to speak
as II she had this quality, or for a
brainless girl to put brains into her
manner of speech. I use my ears
more than my eyes in sizing up the
girls who come here for positions"
The same rule would hold good in
sizing up new acquaintances, in So
ciety as well as. in business.

CHANGE FIELDS
Possibility That Georgia Peach VIII
Play in Right Field for
Detroit Americans
This Season.

WAXAHACHIE, Texas, March %
There is possibility that Ty Cobb
will play right field for the Detroit
Americans this season. Manager
Jennings believes that Sam Craw-
ford is through as a fielder and ex-
poets to use Harry Heilmann as the
third man in the outfield. Jennings
says center field is easier to play
than the other gardens and plans to
use Heilmann in that position, while
Cobb is shifted to Crawford's place.

The interest IN voneyball has
grown so fast among the Y. NJ. G. A.

closed last month was such big sue

two leagues for play period OF sew

day, and the other at 6:15 to give
those men a chance who cannot come
earlier In the evening. The former

latter will be church league, and Is
expected to excite much interest.

Point System.
A new style Of counting for points
will be inaugurated in this league,
one point being given for each man
being present, and this number to be
doubled IL the team wins. This sys-
tenn puts a premium on winning with
as large a number Of men present as
possible, the object being to get as
large teams On the floor as can be
played. In case ten men appear on
each side, the side lines may be dis
pensed with. and the wall counted as
boundary OF playing space.
The schedule will be similar to
that OF the last league. each team
playing about two thirds Of all Mon
days and Thursdays. First game at

game about $50.
