Future Of Draft Horse.
".Sl we can do in predicting the flu
ture of the draft horse business is to
read the handwriting on the wall" was
the statement of Prof. G. s. Gay. OF
the University of Minnesota, in speak
ing OF the future of the draft horse.
SIN view of the present market Condi-
tons and the low prices there is some
question in regard to the future of tho
draft horse. Ono thing Of greatest i'm
portance Is that We. as horse breeders,
have lost what they call in the army
morale Many people have cold feet
Mr.. Cav said that lowans had done
more than any other people to steady
the draft horse business He spoke OF
the effect of the high price paid ) ~
Iowa breeder for Farceur us ste" <
the horse market thruout this par, IT
the country. No one. he said would
pay that price unless he had locke !
thru the situation and WAS sure OF a
return The influence Of the tractor,
the city motor truck. and tn" army
horses have all had their effect" II"

Garden Club Campaign Launched
The campaign for garden clubs next
summer is being launched this week
at the special short course being given
for garden club leaders. Nearly fifty
club leaders are in attendance at thus.
Among the men who arc speaking be-
fore the short course arc r. W. slim
son, of Boston; J. A. Linkc, of Indian
apols, and Y. J. Newbill of the United
States department Of agricultur2.
Washington, D. c,
Much interest was shown by short
course visitors in the talk on price fix
ing by II. G.. Wallace. editor of Wal
laces Farmer, at the farm manage
ment meeting in the morning. After
discussing just what is being done Mr..
Wallace issued warning against pos
sible damage from wrong price fixing.
"PrIcc fixing in terms Of dollars and
cents is bad was the opinion Of Mr..
Wallace prices must bear a direct
relation to the cost of production. That
is the only fair basis. Fix the pric"
OF hogs in relation to the price OF corn.
When $3.50 was established as the price
of wheat, it may have been hiEh
enough. but it is way too low now.
IF we don't adopt a constructive at
titude toward price fixing, we will face
q world famine withn-thc next eighteen
months" declared Mr.. Wallace. our
CORES pondencc does not lead US to be-
licve that Iowa farmers Increased the
number Of hogs bred this fall. The
farmers do not feel that they can make
money under present conditions.'

BIG LEAGUES ON
JOB AS USUAL

Today finds General Crowder's work
or fight" order in full force, but the
big leagues have games scheduled Just
the same. In spite Of the provost mar
shai's edict that all sports come under
the head OF unessential activities and
that professionals in sport must take
up other work the leagues are determ-
ined % keep going. There has been
no decision as yet In the case OF any
major Lacquer, though several minor
league players have been ordered by
their draft boards TO go into useful"
occupations.
Parnham and Shannon OF the Balti-
more club both have been ordered out
OF baseball and they have followed or
ders without putting the cases to a
test. Should a similar order be Issued
TO a major league player organized
baseball Immediately viii make an ap-
peal. The case will wind up with
President Wilson, and there the
leagues will get nothing but a square
deal-Nvith malice toward none and
for all.
In connection with the attitude OF
President Wilson toward The major
leagues we heard last week OF HIS hav-
ing written 10 Secretary Bruce Of the
National Commission TO the effect that
nothing would be done 10 disturb the
big organizations until the season Is
over. Whether such a letter really ex-

regulations are properly observed.
Although not included In the naviga-

addition 10 the regular government boat

peatedly complained that power boats
have entered ths forbidden zones along

Issued by the collectors OF customs.
This applies TO boats propelled by sail

OLD SPORTS GO
INTO GREAT BEYOND

Last week saw the passing OF two
prominent figures In sport OF the old
days-Matt Allen, the "kid glove train
er," who worked for James r. Keene,
Senator Hearst, Diamond Jim Brady and
George Ehret. and Ed Kearney, known
both in horse and pugillstlc circles. Al
len was SO, while Kearney was j65.
or Allen II may be said thai a mis-
take broke his heart and sent him 10
the Last Harbor before his time. Last
winter Allen suffered an accident which
injured his head and hurt his memory.
While acting as orlcial timer at Bel
mont Park on Friday, June 7, Allen
credited Penrose with having run flve
furlongs In 81 is seconds-rather un-
believable time. Timers In the stand
caught the "jackrabbh" in worse than
one minute. Printed doubt OF the time
issued by Allen hit the old man hard
He grieved over Il on Saturday, took
sick on Sunday and on Monday did not
appear at the track. That was the end
OF Allen.
Kearney was the man 20 whom Jim
Corbett probably owed his heavyweight
championship. When Corbett went TO
New York with run down heels, trou-
sers on the ragged edge and a chance 10
fight John l.. Sullivan for the title II
he could set backing to the extent OF
$4,000. he met mostly rebuns and
broad grins. The very idea that Cor
bett wanted to night the reigning king
excited little but mlrth. and Corbett
was fast giving up hope. Finally he

New York Athletic Club, interested.
Kearney took Corbeit up 10 box the
late Mike Donovan and was assured by
what he saw as well as Mikes words
hat the young man really had a chance
against the mighty John L. So II came
about that Kearney put his name at the
.op OF the list OF Corbett's hackers.
With such a name heading the list, the
rest was easy. 90 Corbett got his back
ng, his chance and the title.
