Three methods of training workers for war jobs in England are financed exclusively or in part by the ministry of munitions-training in technical schools, training in instrumental fac tories and training in instructional bays of industrial factories. The last two methods are used in teacning wom- en mechanical processes.

When the curtain goes up on the 1919 baseball season in Sunland, there will very likely be six clubs out of the eight forming the Southern associa- tion of baseball clubs where Sum day baseball may be played. Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga, Mobile, New Orleans and Little Rock will give their fans the great national game on Sun day. Only Birmingham and Atlanta will remain out of the fold.
 This will be a big step forward since last season. and will add much to the league, from a standpoint of patronage and attendance, for in the south the Sunday crowds are what put the clubs on Easy street. and without it some Of the cities have a hard time making their receipts tally with their expenses. Tn some of the Southern league towns hard fights have been made by the club owners and the fans to secure the game on Sundays, and in some cases they have been successful, while in others the fight has been lost and the game may be only played six days in the week.
 Memphis has had Sunday ball for number of years, and the park is al- ways crowded to the limit on the sew enth day of the week. Some of the graybeards sought to kill the game on Sunday here, but were unsuccessful, and 1t is now patronized by the best people in Memphis who see no more harm in sitting at a ball park watch ing a ball game than driving an auto- mobile, attending moving picture shows and playing cards.

INFORMA TON FOR FARMERS
AND ORCHARDISTS
CUT ALFALFA HAY AS
NEW SHOOTS START AT
BASE OF OLD STALKS

Alfalfa that is 10 be used for hay
should be cut when the new shoots
at the crown OF the plant are we'll
started. is the advice Of Prof. a. T.
Wiancko Of Purdue university in
circular No. on alfalfa growing
just published by the extension de-
partment of the university. Accord
ing TO Prof. Wiancko. the new
shoots are a better guide to the
proper time for cutting than the
appearance OF the blossoms.
The new growth appears in the
form OF buds at the base of the old
stalks and these new shoots should
be One-half 10 an inch long before
the crop is cut. Investigations on
this subject have shown that much
alfalfa has been ruined because il
was cut too soon. on the other
hand. letting the new shoots go too
far is also injurious. After the
growth of the plant has been check
ed for any reason. nothing is gained
by letting the crop stand uncut For
this reason, whenever the tops turn
y tllpN Ut lGt crop UGCOlltc StllOuS-
" affected with leaf spot or any
other disease, il should be cut even
though the fresh shoots have not
started.
The best practice TO follow in
making alfalfa hay is 20 NOW il in
the afternoon and the next morning.
as soon as the dew is off. go over
il with a tedder In the afternoon,
il may be raked and the hay put up
in small cocks where il should be
allowed 10 cure a few days before
hauling 20 the barn. A few hours
before the crop is hauled in, the
cocks should be turned over TO dry
out the bottoms. In good hay MAX
ing weather, cooking will not be
necessary and the hay may be load
ed directly from the window.
In this climate. where it is often
necessary 10 make hay during rainy
we Their il will pay to have a set Of
canvas shock covers to protect the
cocks from rain. The expense and
extra trouble are paid for by the
better quality of hay produced.

FARMERS TO GET
PROFITS ON WOOL
Distribution of excess" Will
Begin Soon by Department
of Agriculture.

Collection OF excess profits from
wool dealers IS proceeding. and their
distribution TO wool growers will be-
gin in the near future This an
nouncement is made b. the United
States department OF agriculture,
which is completing the work Of the
domestic wool section of the war in
dustries board. in accordance with
provision Of the agricultural appro-
priation bill.
Reports thus far received show
that excess profits were made by
about 10 percent of the country
dealers. Correspondence with dis
tributing center" dealers, whose to-
tai reports are not yet completed,
indicate that some of them have &C
cumulated substantial amounts of
excess profits on the wool which they
actually bought. Auditing of the
accounts OF the larger dealers is a
considerable task and will require

No Refunds to Consignors
The department calls attention 10
the fact that the regulations of the
war industries board did not per
nit the purchase of wool in the
great wool growing states of the
Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
region except in the case of clips of
less than 1000 pounds each. All
larger clips were required 10 be
consigned. This region produces
about two-thirds of the entire wool
clip of the country, which was about
257,O0O.O00 pounds in 1918. Grow
ers in the eastern states were urged
TO pool and consign their woods and
many of them did so. Since the
government paid the dealers a fixed
commission on consigned wool, CX-
cess profits could be maade only on
that part of the wool which they
bought outright Therefore. grow
ers who consigned their clips should

FOE
OF HOG DISEASES
ThreShing and Harvest Season
Ripe for Cholera and Many
Other RaVageS.

With the arrival Of harvest and
thrashing time and the accom-
panying busy season on the farm.
extreme care should be exercised
by farmers and stock raisers 10 pre-
vent the spread OF hog cholera and
other hog diseases, says DR.. l.. c.
Kigin, extension veterinarian OF
Purdue university. At this time Of
the year, when farmers are going
to and from farms Of their neigh
bors and traffic between farms Is
much increased in general, condi-
tons are exceptionally favorable to
the spread Of hog disease. Con-
siderable loss can be prevented by
the observance of sanitary and pre-
cautionary measures.
That the exercising of such rules
have been effective in controlling
hog diseases has been shown by the
scarcity Of disease in communities
organized to fight its spread. Elk
perience OF the veterinary extern
sion department of Purdue univer-
sity has shown that in spite Of
the fact that cholera and mixed in
lection have broken out time and
again in these communities, so
effective were the simple measures
practiced that the disease was pre-
vented from spreading and in a
short time was completely wiped
out.
The cleaning up of the infected
farm before threshing time is one
of the most effective ways Of pre-
venting the spread of disease to
many neighbors according 10 DR..
KiEin. All loose litter such as corn
cobs and straw should be raked up
and burned and the ground sprin-
killed. with lime. Sunlight, which is
the best germ killer known, should
IN all cases possible be given free
fcction Where the ground is
shaded by trees or fences it should
be sprayed with "A 100 cresol COM
pound 20 80 Of water. Feed trOughs
should be cleaned and disinfected
and all buildings exposed 10 the
disease should have the sunlight ad-
mitted 10 them and De sprayed. Hogs
infected with a disease of any sort
should he placed to themselves and
everything possible done 10 prevent
men who are coming on the farm
from coming in contact with the in
lection. Using the cresol disinfec-
tant on the shoes of persons and

MILK OCCUPIES IMPORTANT
PLACE IN POULTRY RATION

That milk has a value as a part
of the poultry ration was strikingly
demonstrated by the results obtain
ed on one OF the poultry demonstra-
ton farms which are established
and conducted 10y the extension de-
partment Of Purdue university.
one farmer who had been feeding
milk 20 his flock discontinued do
ing SO with the arrival of the sum-
mer months thinking that the
fowls would pick up enough insects
20 make up for the food value that
was furnished by the milk. Almost
Immediately. however. his daily egg
production began falling of until. in
one month. il had dropped of to
one half what il had been for the
month previous. When milk was
again made a part Of the ration. tbs
daily egg production gradually in
creased. As a result OF the milk
fed. the production the following
month was as good as in the spring
months and the extra profit made
more than paid for the milk fed.

NEW CITY COUNCIL SEATED

The new city council entered upon it's duties in the miGst of q vast amount of verbal pyrotechnics at the city hall last evening. following the winding mp of the affairs of the 18th Common Council after short period accustomed by the fact that the 18th Common Council as it is present con- stituted is short enc member the old council having taken no action with regard to the votes cast in favor of Geo. $. Maynard and others for the vacancy in the list of councimanic candidates created by the eleventh hour withdrawal of Chas. w. Lewis on the evening preceding election.
 Owing to the withdrawal of Lewis, approximately one third of the voters wrote in the names of Mr. Maynard, Al Nicholson and Gus Boltz in the space on the ballot occupied by the name of Mir. Lewis. Mir. Maynard received an overwhelming majority oS these complimentary votes and was accepted by the members of the new council as a logical successor to Mir. Lewis. This claim, however. was called into question by Attorney o'Ncill on behalf of F. NJ. 1<iesele, appointed member of the old council, the contention apparently resting on the view that Mr. Kiesele's term was for a period of two years. During tl'e discussion over the legality of MT Maynard's election, City Attorney O. n. Cochran covered wide range of legal rulings tending to show that the action of the voters in substituting Mir. to the franchise laws and constituted a legal election. Mr. O'Neill quoted little law but devoted considerable time to tirade of criticism mainly directed against Mir. Maynard. At the conclusion of the argument the rew council decided to lay the ques- ton of filling the vacancy over until the next regular meeting.
 The 18th Council was called to order Councilmen Lesc1er and Hagcr were
 ,sent but appeared later. Follow ing the reading of the minutes of the last meeting, he retiring city officers read their reports. City Treasurer's Jackson's report was read by City Clerk Grimm and reported an over draft of ST9.l1. The report of the City Clerk disclosed outstanding war rants amounting to SS0S39 with cash cn hand in the clerks custody amount ing to SS0S.14. Following the reports q number of claims and accounts against the city which had received the endorsement of the Finance Con- nittee were read and ordered paid under q suspension of the rules.
 Councilman Milot then rendered a resolution extending standing vote of thanks to Capt. Thos. A. Ross and the crew of the Coast Guard for their voluntary assistance to the Fire De- partment during the past year. The resolution was adopted and a copy of the same ordered prepared for trans mission to Capt Ross. It was then suggested by the Mayor that the 18th Common Council adjourn sine die following the completion of the min utes of the meeting. The council then recessed for a period of five minutes to allow the City Clerk to conclude the minutes.
