VASTLY DIFFERENT
Carpenter Refused Offer to

ian Listens to Advice of
Grant Hugh Brown.
BY II. c. HAMILTON.
United Press Staff Correspondent

New York, March 10.-Governor
Whitman's action in barring Les Darcy
from participation in boxing contests
in New York would be extremely popu-
lar in Australia, according to editorial
comment on the young mans departure,
printed in the Melbourne Argus reach
ing here. The Argus of Feb. said
LES Darcy, the young boxer who esa
capped from Australia a few months
ago in order, it is alleged, to avoid
military service, is q living example
of the man who fights and runs away
and lives to fight another day. Darcy
has been matched to fight Mccoy in
New York next March and his share of
the purse will be $4,000. 1t is to be
hoped that while Darcy is In America
he will take steps to secure naturaliza-
ton in that country. In even American
eyes Darcy must cut poor figure.
CARPENTER DIFFERENT.
ut is interesting to compare him
with that great boxer Carpenter. When
approached recently with an offer to
box in Australia, Carpenter replied
proudly:
"I am soldier Of France
HE may box at a charity matinee in
Paris occasionally, when on leave from
the trenches, but large purses and the
applause of the stadium have no at
traction for him while the war lasts.
He is too proud to avoid fighting the
Germans"
LESSON FOR HAWKINS.
Mick Hawkins, Darcy's trainer,
probably could Gull a lesson from this
editorial. When Eddie Kane went to
Goshen and received a rebuff from
Darcy in efforts to get the Australians
agreement to fight in Milwaukee, Haw-
kins made himself conspicuous by his
contempt for Australia and America
Hill be daown to the window to see
We owff," he told Kane when chatting
him about the probability of being sent
into war If the United States joins. "Ye
en- see him not fightin'."
Darcy expressed no such sentiments,
but 1t is unfortunate he should be\ con-
nected with a man who is so free in his
criticism of his native land. Hawkins
also had few facetious remarks to
make regarding this country. His
Characterization of Uncle Sans army
was expected to be laughable, but it
failed to rouse an answering smirk
from Kane and accompanying newspa-
permen. The joke had no point with
them.

FEEL AWE AT CRATER LAKE
Marvellous Sheet Of Water Inspires All by It's Standardization
 Almost Fascination.

Crater lake has been known to in snire reverence ia visitors who claimed to feel little or none at sight of the Grand canyon. It is difficult to imagine anybody who would remain untouched by the canyon, which is probably the most magnificent natural spectacle in the world but if such person exists, he might still feel the spell of Crater lake.
 For Crater lake has the charm Of simplicity. of a direct beauty that grows after the shock of the first view. The canyon, if anything, is too grand; 1t seems to have been built and eolored for the amusement of the gods and is likely to oppress too impressionable hu- mans after q time with an uncomfort- able sense of their own unimportance and insignificance. There is something very different in the placid breeding beauty of Crater lake.
 Crater lake can be described in q few words. Ii is cliff-walled body of sparkling water, held high in the air in tlIe cup ol Ndicdno ln;ll HaS FellFeu from active business for To these many years. Also, it is blue-exeeedingly blue, blue beyond the habit of earthly water. At times it looks like a patch of tropic sky seen In the early morn ing. The only item in the character istics of Crater lake bare inventory fails to include is it's peculiar attrac- tion that is almost fascination. The 1ndian5 peopled it with all manner Of gods and spirits, anG it is easy to see why they did so. It takes more than chemical combination of hydrogen and oxygen to give out the peculiar atmos- phere of mystery and unreality that hangs oyer the sunlit turquoise waters.

credit even of quotation marks. Here are few of them that will be recog- nized as old friends:
 ''The short and simple annals of the poor.''
 Rich with the spells of time.''
 "The paths of glory lead to the grave"
 And freeze the genial currents of the soul.''
 "Fur many a flower is born to blush unseen and waste it's sweetness on the desert air"
 ''Some mute. inglorious Milton, some Hampden guiltless of his country's blood"
 Hands that the rod of empire might have swayed."
 "The applause of listening senates 10 command.
 'The noiseless tenor. of their way"
 Far from tie madding crowds ig- noble strife"
 Fen in our ashes live their wonted fires"
 A youth to fortune and to fame unknown"
 ''To wade through slaughter to a throne.'
 The inspirational influences of the poem have been far-reaching, says the Kansas City Star. Thomas Hardy's most famous book-and the best or his earlier novels-"The Madding Crowd" derived it's title and perhaps it's inspiration from one of the oft quoted lines of the elegy. It is told of Daniel Webster that when he was being driven to the capitol to deliver his reply to Haynes he was heard by one of his companions to murmur over and over again as he rode along the words: "The applause of listening senates to command" It will also be remembered that Wolfe, the conquer or of Quebec, read this poem i'll his tent the night before the battle on the Plains of Abraham and said:
 T would rather be the author of that poem than the conqueror Of Que bec."

HE NATION NEEDS
 FRUIT PRODUCTS
Orchard Work in May and June Is Very important-cultivate Or
 chards Until August.
By ]. s. Knox, Horticulturist, Exten- sion Division University of
 Arkansas.

The nation needs Arkansas fruit products for food and every orchard ist in the state should take precaution not only to have large crop, but the best crop obtainable. Good fruit can bs secured only by proper care and by continuing the orchard work in May and June Possibly there is no other season of the year when the work in the orchard is of greater im- portance than it is during these months.
 This being the case, it is all 1ni- portant that we should cling to our orchard work and see that the fruit trees have the attention which they merit. Just as long as our or chard work is made a sideline and neglected when the real farming sea son comes on just so long will we ne harvesting a crop of diseased CT wormy fruit that will scarcely bring returns sufficient to pay for the haf- vesting and packing. There is only one way to grow first class fruit and that is to take the best of care of the orchard. If we fail to continue the spraying and cultivation through the growing season We have very poor chance of gathering a crop of good sized and perfect fruits. The ques- tion is often asked, Can I afford to spray my orchard three or four times each season?" As an answer to this question l would simply say, Ask your neighbor who has tried it?"
 Spray Thoroughly.
 Continue the spraying of the stone fruits, such as peaches, plums and cherries with. the S-S-50 or self-boiled lime sulphur solution adding 1 1-2 pounds of arsenate of lead paste to each 30 gallons of the solution The fruits have grown considerably since the last application and, consequently, it is not so we'll protected as it was. In doing the spraying, remember that only the portion of the fruits covered by the solution will be protected against the raVages of the insects or diseases. This being the case it can be seen that :thoroughness is one of the great factors in spraying. You cannot do the work thoroughly with out some Of the solution dripping from the trees so don't worry about that. It is usually during this season Of the year that brown rot and scab

Don't Let Bitter Rot Destroy
 Your Apples.


 The work in the apple orchards will consist in the spraying for control of codling moth, scab, blotch, and canker worms. FNtunate1y, we can combat all of these with the same so- lution Use about 1-2 gallons of the commercial lime sulphur solution and four pounds of arsenate of lead paste to each 100 gallons af diluted spray. This work also must be done thor oughly and for best results additional of two to three weeks. About the middle of June the bitter rot of the apple is likely to show up in many or chards and for this reason it proba- bly, will be advisable to make one or two applications of the 4-4-50 Bor- deaux mixture solution. There seems to be quite lot of this disease in q great many orchards over the state and when an orchard is once infested there is nothing that can control it except thorough and systematic spraying.
 In practically all of the vineyards over the state there can be seen num- tars of mummied fruits still hanging on the vines. These were destroyed in many instances by the black rot fungous and could have been saved by spraying with Bordeaux mixture of strength of 4-4-50. The first applica. ton should have been made just after the berries set and others follow at about three weeks interval. Two pounds of lead arsenate paste should he added to each 50 gallons of the above solution for the control of the grape eureulie.
 Cultivate Orchards Until August.
 Keep your orchard cultivated dur ing the summer or at least until Au- gust. when a crop of peas may be sown for cover crop and for the pnr- pose of adding more organic matter to the soil. If you have eowpeas. pea nuts. soy beans or potatoes planted in rows between the rows of trees it may help to defray the expenses of cultivating the orchard These. hop- ever, should be fertilized so that they will not draw too heavily on the soil Keep after your orchard work. It will surely pay you.
 A number of excellent bulletins treating of the different phases of orchard work may be had by applying to the Extension Division, University Of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Ark.
