HIS DEAL

Minneapolis, Mimi. March 10.-LeS
Darcy, Australian middleweight cham
p1on. will make his first fight in this
country in Milwaukee ring. This was
the information handed out today by
Frank Mulkern, Milwaukee promoter,
in Chicago. Mulkern is the man who
made the match for Darcy and Mike
repudiated by the Australian, who
claimed Timothy O'Sullivan had no
authority to sign articles for him.
Il received a telegram froin New
York today stating Darcy would come
west in three days to go through with
the match with Gibbons at my club"
said Mulkern. The action of Cover
nor Whitman prohibiting him from
boxing in New York has had its eff
feet on Darcy and he is now ready to
talk business. for he can fight in Mil
waukee but cannot swing a glove in
New York. Darcy has already arranged
for a meeting with Eddie Kane, man
ager of Gibbons. at Goshen, N. Y, on
Friday, after which he is coming
west" .a 4-s
Mulkern declined to say anything
about the amount Of money that would
be paid Darcy for boxing Gibbons, but
tho chances are the Australian will be
asked to show for less money than he
originally was offered. His end will
amount to $4,000. it generally is be-
lieved.
That the governor of Wisconsin will
not follow the step taken By Governor
Whitman in barring Darcy as a slack
er was indicated by Mulkern.
Il have sounded out things" said
Mulkern, land do not LOOK for any

Timely Home Gardening Hints Series
when to Plant Vesetabes)
(oHce Of information U. s. Department of Agrieulture)

Washington, D, c.. March 10.-The
garden specialists of the U. S. Depart
ment of agriculture divide vegetables
into two classes-"warm temperature"
and cold temperature" vegetables.
When peach and plum trees are in
blossom, they say, it is time to sow
in the open ground such seeds as let
tuce. radishes, parsley, beets, turnips,
cabbage, carrots peas, and onions. The
wrinkled peas should not be planted
until later. as they are more liable to
rot in cool ground than are the smooth
varieties. When the apple trees bloom,
it is time to plant the heat-loving
vegetables such as cucumbers. beans,
sweet corn, pumpkin, and squash.
This is an old but excellent rule.
The quickest crop to mature is the
radish. lettuce. turnips, peas, beets,
and beans usually require from six to
nine weeks, corn from eleven to
thirteen weeks, and potatoes from fif-
teen to sixteen weeks to mature.
Lettuce is to the garden what the
hay crop is to the field-always need
ed, and gives some of the best re-
turns. A rich sandy loan, with SUM-
cient nitrate to stimulate leaf growth
and intensity the chlorophyll or deep
leaf color of the plant, and a suf-
fiency of soft water keep the crop
crisp and fresh. Much the same plan
is practiced with cabbage, except that
it does not require so much water.
/ Beans do not require very rich soil
and it is safe to plant them on the
very poorest patch. Snap beans may
be grown in rows between the orchard
trees.
The lima bean requires q rich,
moist soil, but does not seem to de-
prive the land of It's. productiveness.
Lima beans have been grown on the
same fields in California for many
years.
Cucumbers, squashes, and melons
require rich soil, and the cucumber
profits by the application of fresh
horse manure. Sheep manure will
hurry plants along more rapidly than
most chemical fertilizers.
The specialists believe that If the
general principles they have outlined
are followed. 1t viii be profitable for

Duluth, Mimi, March 10.-Duluth
will have real league baseball this
coming summer If the plans Of certain
promoters in various cities of the old
Northern circuit can carry out plans
on which they have been working for
several months and which were an
nounced for the first time in last
evenings Herald.
Grand Forks. Virginia, Winnipeg,
Duluth. Superior and Fargo have al
ready been nominated for berths and
representative men from each of these
towns will gather in Duluth in the
near future to talk over the plans or
formation. 1t is said that all of the
magnates are eager to bring matters
to a head at as early a date as pos
sible SO that players can be signed
up and all necessary business matters
incident to launching the circuit can
be arranged so that the first games
can be played in May.
If the proposed league should come
to a successful issue there is a pos
sibility that new ball park will be
placed in West Duluth, where all of
the local games will be played. For
several months a number Of West
Duluth business and professional men
have been planning on taking over
a long time lease on certain vacant
lots in that section Of the city, where
baseball can be played in summer,
football in the autumn and an ice
skating rink be established in the
winter. It was expected that the lease
would have been closed before this
but there has been a slight hitch which
will probably be wiped out in the
next few days so that the promoters
can go ahead with their plans.
Winnipeg Will Pay.
That league baseball will pay in
Winnipeg this coming season is

the series proves to be an inter-
sectional contest. In other respects
there are few novelties, the Pacific

leagues will stage the shortest PEN
nant race. The list Of opening and
closing days as announced to date
from official or semi official sources
are as follows:

where the monetary value of the crops
raised in the backyard garden Is
not important, the gardener and his
family must credit to the patch the
health and enjoyment they gain from

out that from the community point OF
view it is the duty Of every home

getting rid of a patch of weeds in the
