English Referee System.

Eugene CORR. the English referee. who
gave TO Jimmy Wilde the decision over
Pal Moore. has Just furnished an illu-
minating illustration of the methods of
British referees In deciding bouts Mr..
CORR admits that in calculating points
In contest he makes five points the
maximum number to be awarded in a
round. At the close Of round he puts
down on card the number of points
that in his opinion the contestants are
entitled to.
At the close of the last round he adds
the points and gives his decision TO
the man with the greatest number
This system is followed by nearly all
English referees, and is radically de-
Fective. referee who cannot at the
close Of limited bout name the win
rer without the aid of a score card ia
Incompetent. The only fair and reliable
method is to p"t dawn the winner of
Zach round. and give the decision to the
man who has won n majority of the
rounds, Any other system is unreliable
and untrustworthy.
Corri submits Case.
But Mr.. CORR goes furtherrand sub
mits this suppostitious case:
zone man has been winning hand
'iA4Vi9 aiI dlpl6 lilS Inc TO the TWEEN
'ieth round, in a specified twenty round
ontest In the last round. let It be
9rgued that the man who has figured
so splendidly is suddenly knocked down
by chance blow and counted out. The
~clc3 % tho Nati01a, Sporting Club
would, in such a case as that, Justify
4 referee in giving the fight to the ma m
who had so conspicuously proved his
superiority on points"
1t seems incredible Shat any one
familiar with the rules OF boxing could
even suggest that a man who scores a
Knockout in the last round of a bout
should be declared the loser because
his opponent was leading on points at
the time Of the Knockout. The Chance
blow is a flglnent of the Imagination of
defeated boxers.
It is well for boxers who may be
invited to box in England to know what
they may expect with an English ref

POTATO ANTHRACNOSE
FOUND in OHIO FIELDS

A new disease known as potato an
thracnose has been found in Ohio
potato fields, the first report coming
from Vermillion, Erie county. The
potato districts in Wayne county have
also been attacked. Botanists at the
Ohio Experiment Station are now
working on the outbreak to determine
the extent and loss.
The disease is due to fungus which
in the early stages of infection may
be recognized by brown dry tips and
margins of the leaves and by rotten
condition of the stem at the ground,
according to aliss Freda Detmers,
assistant botanist at the Experiment
Station. Such infection spreads
throuh the plant and the entire vine
becomes dry and brown and lies flat
on the ground. The stalk is covered
with minute coal black specks which
are thickIy beset with minute black
bristles.
The infection Seems to be most Sc
we're on the early varieties, as Early
Ohio, Early Rose and Early Six
Weeks. When the potatoes are thus
stunted the yield is reduced from SO
to rs per cent.
The hXpernnent Station authorities
at Wooster ask that farmers, potato
growers and county agents send in
samples of diseased potato plants SC
that the extent OF the new disease
may be located.

FIND GOOD CONTROLS
FOR ARMY WORM PEST

Demonstrations made in the control
of the army worm by I. H. Parks, ex-
tension entomologist, Ohio State Uni
versity, show that two methods are
effective when used promptly to kill
army worms attacking field crops.
These are the "dust furrow" and
poison bran mash" Tests conducted
in Drake county this year show that
the best results may be secured when
both are used together.
A furrow,is made around field as
soon as the worms begin migrating
between the rows of corn and log is
dargged through the furrow to make
the dirt fine and the sides steep and
dusty. The worms are held in the
furrow and when fed the poison bran
mash in the evening, very few live
ones were found the next day. 1t is
necessary to renew the dust furrow
each day during migration of the
worms.
Professor Parks reports that the
most serious outbreak of army worms
in Ohio since 1914 occurred during
June of this year. The worms in the
Ohio fields have usually developed in
rye to which crop the greatest dam
age was done, although, wheat, corn,
timothy and bluegrass were also dam
aged. Army worms were traced
through scattered areas of more than
$4,000 acres in Madison county and
elsewhere, outbreaks occurring in
Champaign and Preble counties. In
all of these sections the worms de-
velop unnoticed on low black land.
The army worms feed unobserveC
much like cutworms, but develop with
such rapidity that the crop is some
times badly damaged before the owner
is aware of their presence. The
worms feed mostly at night, devour
ing blades of grass, corn or grain ant
consume an amount of foliage entire
ly out of proportion to their size
Since they feed at night they are Of
ten able to escape the attention o:
farmers until a serious outbreak ha
developed.

LIMESTONE
SHIPPED BY MOTOR TRUCK

At least four Ohio quarries are de-
livering agricultural ground limestone
by motor truck. A charge of rs cents
a ton for the first three miles; one
dollar, up to five miles; and II to 18
cents per ton mile beyond that dis
tance is made by one company
Charges of from 12 to Is cents a ton
mile are made by other firms. These
concerns find that farmers prefer
such delivery service rather than
hauling limestone themselves and al
so that it has stimulated a big in
crease in the business. On account Of
the somewhat broken and hilly coun-
try surrounding Bellefontaine, one
stone company operating such a SER
vice there, contributes it's success to
the use of a four-wheel drive truck.
With this outfit four tons of stone is
delivered under almost any condition
met.
Experience Of concerns at Colum-
bus, Lima and Piqua would seem to
indicate that ground limestone can
be delivered by truck, where roads are
good, at lower cost than farmers can
haul it themselves.

PAID $100 A DAY FOR
PRUNING APPLE TREES

The increased yield of fruit from
his apple trees paid w. A. Knight, of
Alfalfa, Lawrence county, $100 a
day last spring for pruning 10 rows
of trees in his orchard. The work was
done as a demonstration in co-opera-
tion with the Lawrence County Farm
Bureau and the Agricultural College
Extension Service. The trees on the
10 pruned rows will bear 300 barrels
of apples. Twenty-nine rows adjoining
the pruned part are carrying at the
present time an estimated crop of
1900 barrels.
At current apple prices, Mr.. Knight
figures that, had he. been able to
prune the entire orchard, consisting of
1900 trees, the crop would have been
worth $4,000 more to him than it
now promises. He also reports that
the pruned trees were sprayed with
much greater ease than those receiv-
ing no pruning and that he used sur
prisingly less spray material. The
fruit now ripening on the pruned
trees is of much greater size and
promises to be of better color and
quality than that grown on the un-
pruned trees.

CULLING POULTRY TO
PAY WELL THIS FALL

One-half of the Ohio farm hens fail
to pay their feed bill, says Prof. F. S.
Jacoby, poultry specialist of the Ohio
State University. Unless the Ohio hen
lays from 80 to 100 eggs a year she
is being kept at a loss. On account of
the high cost Of feed, he suggests
that it will pay better than ever this
fall to Gull the nonproductive hens.
Following are few points to be kept
in mind:
In selecting hens to keep over
preference should be given to those
that molt in September or later, fol
they areas a rule-the most per
sistent layers. Such hens may not be
at this time the best looking in the
flock. They are likely to be rough il
plumage with somewhat shlivelet
combs and pale colored legs. These
things, however, are merely incidenta
to the nonlaying and molting period.
Hens that appear in prime condition
at this time are those that molted il
the summer because they stopped
laying early.
Gull all hens that are laying now
If they are not laying now their sea
son is too short.
A width of two or three fingers be
tween the pelvic bones indicate tina
the hen is laying.
A maximum distance between tn
keel and pelvic bones is to be sough
as this indicates capacity for egg pro
duction.
A soft, flexible comb is always de
sirable.

AID WHEAT
WHERE Fly is BAD

The expected visitation of the
Hessian fly this fall makes it the more
important that fertilizers be used
literally on the wheat, according to
Director Chas. E. Thorne of the Ohio
Experiment Station. In the disastrous
attack of 1900 at the Ohio Experiment
Station unfertilized land yielded only
a little more than one bushel per acre,
while land receiving 100 pounds of
acid phosphate per acre produced
nearly IL bushels, which was two
bushels more than that grown where
eight tons of manure had been used.
The acid .phosplMNe starts tfe wheat
to growing quickly so that it is able
to get out Of the way Of the by. Acid
phosphate hastens the early growth
and advances maturity, SO that wheat
may be sown several days later if
acid phosphate is used and yet reach
the haryest "on time"
