The Barons came within one run of tieing the score in their part of the first inning. Stewart was walked by Thweatt Stevenson hit hot one to Blades that went for safe hit Stew art advanced to second on the tap Barnhart doubled to right and Stew art galloped him. Exit MT. Thweatt; :; Goodbred takes the mound. Bernsen popped up to Blades. but Ellis damned out a clean hit through short, scoring Stevenson. Barnhart was caught off third and tagged out at home when he attempted to make the platter. Grif- fifth grounded out ending the scoring for the Barons.
 After that first inning the Chicks landed on Herbst right and left and scored one run in the second. one in the fourth, four in the sixth and three in the ninth. It was a walk-away.
 The Chicks supported Goodbred in splendid style and although they made four errors these came al tipes when an error or so didn't matter. H3schoff, in right, robbed Peters, Baronial catcher, of two probable extra base hits by long running catches. :,

FARMER AND GOOD HIGHWAYS
Has Become Hard Working and Vot-
ing Enthusiast for Improved Roads
Because Of Many Benefits.

The biggest booster for good roads
in the country today is the farmer. A
few years ago he felt that the portion
of his taxes used in the construction
of permanent highways represented a
benefit only to the motoring tourist
and the city automobile owner, writes
II. w, Slauson in LeSlie's. The farm
er argued that he was paying for
their pleasures, and the result was a
superstition against the good roads
movement.
Now, however, when the farmer
finds that his land has trebled in val
ne: when the merchandise for which
he has telephOned in the morning can
be delivered by noon of the same day !;
when the market for his own produce
Is brought hours nearer; when the
winter and its following spring thaw
possess no terrors for him all this
because of the improved highway
which makes his farm only suburb,
as 1t were, of the nearest city Ire
naturally becomes n Woodworking and
hard-voting enthusiast for good roads

Farm labor Is scarce this year, and
yields are likely to suffer unless avail
able labor is utilized to the best ad-
vantage.
Unnecessary or misdirected cultiva-
ton is always a serious waste, but it
is particularly so when man power
is not adequate to crop requirements.
Make all labor count at full value.
In cultivating the corn crop, say spe-
cialists, use two-row cultivator If
possible. 1t consumes only half as
much man labor as a one-row cult
vator and only one-fourth as much as
the half-row cultivator or double
shovel.
Cultivate when cultivation is need
ed, but refrain when it is not needed.
Cultivation may be waste of time
or actually injurious under certain con-
ditions. Cultivation by hard-and-fast
rule is likely to do more harm than
good. Government corn specialists

give the following general principles
as to time and manner of cultivating
corn:
Cultivation Has Three Objects.
There are three main purposes of
cultivation-to store moisture, to de-
stroy weeds to warm the soil.
Keep the soil surface loose and open.
This will let the rain soak in quickly
and reduce waste. In fair weather It
will prevent the subsoil from drying
out. A properly cultivated surface
soil will send moisture, laden with
plant food, up through the corn roots
and stalks to make ears
Every weed in cornfied is an en-
envy. 1t drinks up moisture and con
sumes plant food that should go TO
make corn kernels instead of weed
seed. Destroy weeds when they APP
pear. Attack them. if possible, in fair
weather. You will then have the sun
as a powerful ally.

Evaporation of moisture lowers tenn
perature. A wet, evaporating soil sur
face is cold. A dry soil surface is
warm. 4 loose soil surface dries quick
ly and the blanket of loose, dry soil
then checks evaporation, drinks in sun
shine, and becomes warm.
Watch your soil-its condition
should determine when to cultivate. Do
not let cracks form. They are holes
through which valuable moisture es-
capes. Do not cultivate when your
ground is dry or wet enough to form
large clods. Clods tie up plant food
so that the corn roots cannot use it.
Watch Soil and Plants.
Do DOT waste cultivation. Cultiva-
ton may be actually injurious when
your soil is so dry and hard as to
break into large dry clods.
Failure to cultivate promptly when
1t is needed to prevent the soil from
becoming cracked, hard, or weedy will
materially lessen the corn yield
In addition to watching the soil,
watch the plants. Their progress de-
termines how you should cultivate.
While the plants are small, cultivate
as deeply as the condition of the soil
makes necessary. If your seed bed
was not we'll prepared before plant
ing, deep cultivation when the corn is
small is desirable. Get your soil into
open condition so that the corn roots
can reach out for food.
After the plants become foot high,
shallow cultivation only should be
given. The roots have spread out close
under the surface of the soil and
would be injured by deep cultivation.
Never cultivate deeply close to corn
plants after they are a foot high. Such
cultivation will break feeding roots and
cause injury to the plants.
Conserve Labor and Land.
Corn is the main support of the ma
ton. Grown in every state of the
Union. it exceeds any other crop in
| acreage, production, value, and multi
| plicity of uses.
When land and labor were abundant,
| production could be increased to meet
| increasing demands by planting more
| acres to corn. But the demand for
corn is still increasing while available
| labor is decreasing. The only way to
increase production is to make each
acre yield more bushels of corn.
The average yield of corn per acre
in the United States is about ~ BUSH
els. With good seed, fair soil, and
timely, careful cultivation, the yield
can be doubled, the specialists say.
That may be too much to strive for this
year, but proper methods should enable
you to obtain, with limited labor, as
good yields as you formerly grew-un-
less, of course, you have always fol-
| lowed the best cultural methods.
