Sharkey Unable To
 Knock Out Ledoux

In two sensational 15-round bouts at Madison Square Garden last night before a crowd that packed the his toric arena from floor to dome, Jack Sharkey, the combative West Side bantam, administered a terrific drub- ping to Charley LedouX, bantam champion of Europe, and Joe Lynch and Jabez White boxed a draw.
 The bout between Sharkey and Le- doux was one of the most exciting ever seen in this city, and the West Slider, who pummelled the French titleh older, from start to finish, won by a wide margin, but was unable to score a knockout and registered but one knockdown in the entire 1 } rounds. Sharkey really tired him. self to a walk as a result of punch ing the rugged Frenchman, and it was a mystery how Ledoux managed to remain on his feet to the finish.

DISCOVER TOBACCO DISEASE.
Tobacco Wildfire Found I'm Massachus
etts-DangerOus Disease.

AMHERST. Mass. Nov. 4.-Tobacco
wildfre, a leaf disease of tobacco that
has caused practically total crop losses
in North Carolina. has been discovered
in Massachusetts by experiment station
workers. who are preparing a warning
circular. The disease has been rampant
during exceptionally rainy years in the
South. and i'm 1917 was completely dis
astrous to the North Carolina crop. The
bacteria infect the leaves causing rot.
but in this state the infection has not
reached the stage of rot. having been
observed only in seed beds, as a water
soaked appearance.
Low temperature and wet weather ia
cilitate its spread. Control starts in the
seed bed. and old beds should be ster-
iliZed. If it appears on new seed beds.
the young plants should be destroyed.
Growers are warned to use seed only
from healthy plants and be wary of any
seed purchased.
