GRAPEFRUIT KING
TO TRY VELVET BEAN
AS NEW COVER CROP

A new cover crop will be tried out
by J. W. Reed, the grapefruit king,
who has just received enough "Velvet
beans" for 60 acres, which is the size
of the Reed grapefruit orchard west
of the city, where the seed will be
planted. after being inoculated.
The Velvet bean is the greatest for
age crop in the Southern states, being
to that part of the country what In
dian corn is to the North. Mr.. Reed
is expecting great things from the
bean by reason of the nitrogren it is
said to put into the SOIL
"This Velvet beam, he said today,
twill produce so pounds of nitrogen
to the ton of the forage harvested,
AS it is said to yield five tons to the
acre, that would mean $50 pounds Of
nitrogen to the acre. The one thing
this soil of ours in the valley seems
to lack is nitrogen, which may be
gathered from the fact that our al
falfa is getting shorter every year.
This would indicate that the soil lacks
something, and that something is
nitrogen. Alfalfa takes AZ pounds of
nitrogen out of the soil to the ton.
and if it has the bacteria on the
roots it puts that much or more back.
but if it hasn't the bacteria, it robs
the soil. By irrigation we seem to
have killed lot of this bacteria"
The Velvet bean has a color and
shape somewhat similar to the
castor bean. The vines are said to
grow 60 feet and more in length. Mr..
Reeds experiment will be watched
with interest.

That the United States will be rep
resented at the Antwerp Olympic
Games next summer in certain
branches of sport not heretofore par
ticipated in appears probable in view
of early activity shown in this direc-
tior. One Of the latest proposals in
wolves the entry of an American rugby
football team in the Olympic compe-
tition which, according to unofficial
dates, is scheduled to be held during
the closing weeks OF August.
According to Pacific Coast advices
the material and partial financial back
ing for such entry is available from
among the players of the universities
of Stanford and California. 1t is un-
derstood that Stanford University ath-
letic enthusiasts have expressed a
willingness to help finance such team
and that the nucleus for the colnbina-
tion can be secured on the varsity cam
pus with additional material from
among the teams which represented
America in the Inter Allied games il.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-Selection of a
chairman of the National Baseball Com
mission to succeed August Hermann,
who rendered his resignation Yesterday
probably will be made at the joint ses-
sion Of the two major leagues to be
held here February II, John A. Heyd.er,
president of the National League, an
nounced tonight.
The committees Of the two major
leagues, appointed year ago to select
man for the commission chairman
ship, are expected to present their
recommendation at the joint session,
he said.
"The man chosen to lead the COM
mission should be independent enough
to reach out after any player, club
owner or official in baseball who brings
the game under suspicion or disrepute,".
Heydler said.
Hermann was good man for base
ball, but the time has. arrived for a
change. The game demanded it. The
men interested in the sport realized it
and are determined to make progress.
Baseball must be kept clean. and the
man who heads the commission will
have the responsibility of seeing that
this is done. Gambling must be
stopped"

Yale Faces Columbia ON
Local Court and Dart

By Ray Mccarthy

Teams in the intercollegiate Basket
ball League will swing into stride to-
night when Yale will meet Columbia
here in the opening league contest for
these ives, and Dartmouth will play
at Princeton. The Tigers already have
won one game in the series, defeating
Cornell in the first game Of the sea-
son at Ithaca by score ~of 25 to 10.
After tonight Penn will be the only
quintet which has not played q league
game.
In as much as the six teams are
about evenly matched this year, the
outcome Of to-night's issues will be
Princeton are favored by majority
Of the experts TO be the contenders for
the title, but the followers of Yale
and Cornell arc quite optimistic over
the chances of cheese teams Both have
shown much promise in the game 8
they have played with teams outside
the league and will bear watching.
Dartmouth, despite its poor showing
on its trip through this section this
week, has demonstrated splendid posi-
bilities, and the opinion prevails that
once the team gets going it will prove
strong competitor in the league
race. Columbia has shown nothing to
date. and unless it takes decided
brace Is doomed to bring up in the
rear Of It's five opponents

The fact that Penn, Cornell, Yale
and Columbia have gained two legs on
the Hoppe Trophy (thc cur viii 20 per

three legs on it, adds interest to the
struggle for supremacy this season.
Princeton and Dartmouth have yet to
gain top honors. The Tigers have
come close several times and appear
to have an excellent chance to win
this winter.

gin at $3.50. In the afternoon, at 1880,
