FEED BOXES AND HAY RACKS
Faulty Construction Cause Of Animals
Not Getting Feed Intended
for Them.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
In many instances animals do not get
the feed actually intended for them,
due to improper anu faulty construc-
ton of boxes and hay racks. Many
feed boxes are so shallow and small
that much feed Is wasted as the ami.
mails eat from them. In order to pre-.
vent this waste the feed boxes should
be repaired. They should be at least
1S inches wide and "a inches long and
IL to IA inches deep. 1t is often ad-
visable to feed the concentrates with
silage to prevent waste.
Hay racks should be constructed to
prevent animals from tossing or pull
ing hay under their feet. All hay
racks should have tight bottom to
prevent the loss Of leaves and finer
particles Of hay. The leaves Of hay,
especially of the legumes, contain most
of the protein and are, therefore. that
part OF the roughage which the AMI.
mals need. A few hours work In re-
pairing boxes and hay racks, and at q
very small cost, will result in saving
sufficient feed to maintain the animals
In satisfactory condition.

ly what land Is to be kept in woods and
what is to be cleared for farm rur-
poses. On many farms there are small
areas Improbable for farm purposes
which should be reforested as soon as
the price Of nursery stock and labor
becomes normal. Now is the time to
make the plans for the future, laying
out with the assistance Of the county
agent program Of woodland improve
ment which shall have for its object
the growing on the land available of
the greatest possible amount of the
most valuable or most rapid-growing
trees. Then, as time and labor be-
come available, the plans can be car
rled out. The poorer species Of trees
should be gradually elimHated and
openings in the woodland filed In just
as the farmer replants the failed place
in his cornfeld. A few days spent now
In carefully considering these subjects
will bring ample returns In the future.

PRICES NOT CUT BY
LARGER PRODUCTION
Interesting Figures Given by Bu-
reau of Crop Estimates.
Abnormal Conditions Created by War
and Other Causes Have Imposed
Special Relationship Of Prices
and Value.

prepared by the United States Derart-
ment OF Agriculture.)
1t Is often said that when the farm
er has bumper crop the price is so
low that the total value of the crop
is below that of usual crop. but the
abnormal conditions created by the
war and other causes have imposed
special relationship Of crop prices and
total value to the production of 1913
In comparison with 1917.
In the estimates Of the bureau of
crop estimates 1t appears that larger
production has been followed by low
er price and lower total value only
for barley, cabbage. onions, and broom
corn, while larger production has been
followed by higher price and hence
by higher total value for wheat, buck
wheat, fiaxseed, rice. sweet potatoes,
tobacco, apples, oranges, and cram
berries.
AS Is often the fact, lower produc.
tion Is associated with higher price
and higher total value for oats, hay,
sugar beets, peaches, and sorghum
raised for sirup, but exceptions to this
relationship are found In potatoes and
hops, both of which had lower pro-
duction and lower price.
Rye, cotton, the kaflrs and peanuts,
had higher production In 1913 than
in 1917 and q lower price, but not low
enough to prevent higher total crop
value; whereas these conditions were
reversed for corn and beans, both Of
which had smaller crops and higher
prices, but not high enough to prevent
lower total crop value.

 AMERICANS CUP

New York, Oct 7.---It was an- nounced by Secretary George A Cor mack of the New York Yacht Club yesterday that another. challenge for the Americas Cup had been received from the Royal Ulster Yacht Club on behalf of Sir Thomas J. Lipton.
 The challenge names Shamrock W, which has been in this country since 1914 and asks for a race during the summer of 1920.
 The challenge has been submitted by Commodore J. P. Morgan to the American Cup Committee which con sists of Lewis Cass Ledyard. chair man; F. D. Morgan, c. Oliver Iselin, ". Butler DuYeau, c. Ledyard Blair, Dallas B. Pratt and Greeneville Kane who will make a. report at the next meeting of the club which will prob ably be called at an early date.
 Sir Thomas inaugurated his fourth attempt to lift the Americas cup in 1913 with a, challenge for a. race the following year. The challenge was accepted and the challenging yacht, Shamrock ", was en route to this country under it's own sails when war was declared. Shamrock ". put into Bermuda and later reached this port.

 Last December Sir Thomas renewed his challenge for a series of races to be held this year, but the New York Yacha Club asked that it be with drawn or held in abeyance for at least a year, in view of the uncertain out look existing at that time. Sir Thomas acqutesced in this view, and when he visited this country last March to in spect his racing yacht stated that the postpon ement of the race until 1920 would afford him a, better opportunity to recruit a high-class racing crew for next year..

1904 ONLY YEAR IN
 PAST 15 THAT BIG
 SERIES WAS SKIPPED

The series now on for the worlds fifteenth baseball chamDionship is the fifteenth c1stsa for supremacy between pennant winners of the National and American leagues. A series arrang- ed between the Boston Americans and the Pittsburgh Nationals back in 1903 was the first inter-Ieague cham pionship battle, and the inter- est in that series did not give the least idea that within few years such contests would make LID the sport classic of the United States.
 There was no friendly rivalry be- tween the two major leagues when that first series was played. The American League had forced recogni- tion from the older organization but a short time before John I. Taylor hurled his challenge at Barney Drey- fuss for a championship series. Tav- lor's Boston club, managed by Jimmie Collins. had won the American League pennant, and Dreyfuss' S Pittsburgh club, with Fred Clarke at the head, had been victorious in the National League. But many of the National Leaguers still refused to ad- init that Ban Johnson's organiza ton was of major league caIibre, and al though the leagues were apparently at peace, the feeling that prevailed was anything but friendly How ever, Dreyfuss accepted the chaI- lenge. He was a loser but he had paved the way to the big event which the worlds series have since be- come.
 Then came a year without a series the only break between 1903 ana the war break of last year. In 1904 Jimmy Collins again led his Boston team home in first place, and John NcGraw won his first pennant as leader of the Giants. Naturally, the talk of another series sprang up, ana the Boston club was anxious to de fend it's title of worlds champions After much deliberation an announce ment was made that the New York club, would not play such a series. John T. Brush was then the directing spirit of the Giants, and he had not entirely forgotten the wounds in ficted by the American League dur

PARK, (RGyewl

Those who gathered at the Park theatre last night to witness the per formance known as "Oh, My Dear, were not disappointed, as 8 more clever collection of talent can not be found. There was no choice in the individual performer for each one either danced or sang into the heart of the audience. The chorus was of the kind to give you the effect of stepping into a young wOman's sem mary. Gracefulness and youth were paramount and their ability to show off the pretty costumes caused them to make distinct impression on those present. The show is just crammed full of catchy songs and pretty dances.
 Miss Juliette Day gave a fine de Iineation of the divorcee known as Jennie Wren. She knows how to win over an audience without the Her personality attracts throughout the show but is most compelling when she sings ''Phoebe Snow,' a, very un- usual but catchy song. Miss LOT raine Nanvi1le is another young lady with talent in abundance. She very gracefully danced and sang her way into favor.
 Douglas Stevenson as Bruce Allen by came in for much applause for he had a, fine voice and danced well. As a com edian, Joseph Allen sure did get along immensely with the house.
 The people of Bridgeport can blame themselves that there are not more shows of this kind. It demanded a larger crowd than was evidenced last night. High grade shows can not afford to show here unless better supported. It really rests with the theatregoers if there is to be a, con finuation of these hattar shows.

Rath- CT a novelty is introduced in the girls
 making changes behind transparent screens on the stage. Gildea, and Phillips have a song and nut comedy diversion that took very big last night. Their material is done or jginauy and GiIdea handles himself in the comedy line even better than he did when appearing here at diff ferent times with big girl acts. Law renee and KHst, a, man and woman in a. singing, piano and violin act were the hit of the bill in applause. MT Lawrence has an excellent voice and Miss KHst does some good work on the piano and violin. Wilbur and Lyke have a very novel trampoIine, comedy and song act that went good. Some very clever stunts are done by the male member while a few song numbers are rendered with good re suits by the female. Broken Com -nandments,' with Gladys Brockweu, commanded attention for every min ute of it's run. News Weekly and Screen Supplement were good.
