Babe Ruth, the demon slugger of the
Boston Red Sox, crashed out his 22d
home run yesterday. Only three more
and he will tie the world s record made
by Buck Freeman. He has another
month in which to do the trick, and in
dications are that he will set a mark
to be aimed at for many years. Babe
slammed out homer Saturday and two
yesterday in games at Detroit.
a new world S record in the pole
vault was established in Chicago Satur-
day by Frank Foss, Chicago athletic as

As soon as the plants wilt they are no
longer dangerous as a source Of infec-
ton. In damp regions, however. care
must be taken to gather up these
plants and burn them or otherwise de-
stroy them. lest while lying On the
ground they sprout and so spread the
disease.
Appearance of Mosaic Disease.
II is difficult 10 describe the appear
ance Of Sugar-cane mosaic verbally.
and this is one of the reasons Why the
federal authorities are using bulletin
with coIored Illustrations By means
OF this bulletin anyone can readily as
certain the exact appearance Of infect
ed plants. This disease is al infectious
chlorosis. similar in many respects TO
the mosaic disease Of tobacco, cucum-
Der, bean, tomato and potato. Seen
fists have come 10 the conclusion that
some virus Is responsible for the ap-
pearance Of all new cases. and that the
only source Of Infection Is some other
infected plant Experiments in Porto
Rico and elsewhere have repeatedly
demonstrated that cuttings from In
fected stalks viii invariably give rise
10 infected plants. The shoots seem
TO be mottled as Soon as they appear.
Therefore. the use OF diseased stalks
for planting results In & wider ciStri-
button Of the disease and insQres the
survival of the virus even in the ab-
seBce Of secondary infections.

j German professor in whose fam
liz q young Englishnan was living
when the war broke out has NOW sent
TO the boys father bill which the
London papers find amusing. The stu
dents departure, on the outbreak Of
hoSilftlrs, was hurried. as can be
imagined. and he was for long quite
busy as q soldier and officer fighting
Germans Now his proud parent is re-
minded that not only did the boy owe
something for board when he went
away. but that he had made what Gus
tom counted q contract 10 continue

half year. Also. he requested 10 remit
English money. which the German pro
fessor prefers, evidently. 10 that of his
