tain the Pennsylvania. tradition. Eby will surely be a member of the Amer ican middle-distance relay team and will probably score, individually, in some of these events, probably quar- ter and half mile at which he special iZes.
 Eby is a unique phenomenon. AL body, our former Olympic champions,
 though he classes with the once great
 Mel Sheppard, Hillman. and Light and the peerless record breaker,
 'Ted" Meredith, Earl has a running style which is the direct antithesis of
 these stars. Sheppard, Hillman,
 Lightbody, and Meredith were run
 ners of smooth, rythmical form. Eby
 is not. He is a 'tplugger" pure and
 simple. But he gets there just the
 same which is the dominant idea in
 track competition after all.
 Eby doesn't conserve his efforts. He pushes himself all the way in a. series of determined jumps He has more power and stamina than any of the above mentioned ce.ebrities which
 accounts, more than anything else, for his astonishing achievements. Eby couldn't last the limit and register the time for the event that he does had he not. Despite his seemingly cumbersome plugging technique Eby covers ground in remarkable time. He combines a sort of "super jump" at the finish which no one would think him capable of. One of his most brilliant performances, re- gently, was in the college medley event in the Penn relay games. Run- ming on a track far from fast, Eby, out for results although the race was ''cinched," hung up a mark of 1 min
 ute 54 4-5 seconds for the half mile

HARVARD SECOND
 CREW TO COMPETE

Cambridge, Mass, May 27-At a meeting of the Varsity crew squad last night it was decided that liar yard would be represented at the American Henley regatta only by a, second crew. The Varsity oarsmen decided not to make the trip, as they are to break in new sheM for the race with Yale and did not care to take the boat with them to Philade1- phia on account of it's newness. Dr. Paul Wilmington was appointed head coach of the Harvard freshman crew, and will prepare the Crimson young sters for the coming Yale regatta.

RED sOX DUST THE
 INDIANS FROM LEAD

Since early in the season the Cleve- land Indians showed the way in the American League race, but yesterday Speaker and his men had to drop back They've been playing well, but the pace in the East has been a tri1e too hot for them
 The Boston Red Rox, whose ability to stick at or close to the top has been a distinct surprise, yesterday busted the Clevelands from first place, took that proud berth themselves and sent the Indians back home in second place.

'"Ted'' Meredith's worlds record for this event made July 8, 1912, 1 min ute 521a seconds. Meredith's Olym- pic record for the 800 meters (about six yards short of our half mile) IS 1 minute 51.9 seconds. .-..-.-
 Experts claim that Eby has not yet reached the pinnacle of his run ming form and that ultimately he will eclipse even Meredith's world records. No better place and time in the world to do this than at Antwerp this sum mer, Earl! Remember there is MT. Rudd, of Merrie England.

Sumter County, TickFree Turns to Pure Bred Cattle

FOR years the cattle industry the South because
of the prevalence of the cattle fever tick Ian
guished Not so long ago the state, assisted by the
United States Department of Agriculture set about
to stamp out this pest that had made cattle growing
unattractive because of the burdensome and costly
quarantine against their shipment. On December |,
county and pronounced it tick-free
With the lifting of the tick quarantine cattle
raising took decided impetus in Sumter county.
Knowing the ban had been lifted, steps were taken
by progressive farmers early last year for the i'm
portaton of some of the finest registered animals
to be found in the country, which came about in
good start toward becoming the leading fine cat
tie county in Georgia.
Following preliminary work in this direction
done by George 0. Marshall, county agent, dairy
cattle expert was brought here, and it deter
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-08-10

mined to adopt the Jersey breed as most suitable for
the needs of the community. Seventy-fve progress
sve farmers of the county were banded together
into Sumter county bull club and they purchased
four of the finest sres they could find All of these
animals, registered, are from dams producing at
least 10000 pounds of milk and 500 pounds of but
ter fat per year. Some of the members also import
ed registered COWS with which more quickly to de-
velop high grade herds, while others mated good
cows which they already owned and which had
records as high grade mixers. The result has been
that in only little more than one year there are
many calves of finer breeding than ever before
Sumter county farms, and the number will increase
many fold as time goes on.
An example of the increased value of the stock
already resulting was the offer recently received by
member of this club of $50 for calf the day it
was born.
The first object in building up our herds ;"
said County Agent Marshall, was that every farm
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-08-10

home might be adequately supplied with milk and
butter After that there will soon be plenty of milk
and butter for SALE but the home comes first and
we believe this to be big step toward raising the
standard of living in the farm homes of this
munity.
Profits are soon to be coming in, too, for it
will not be great while until buyers from else
where, looking for high grade stock to establish
herds in other sections will be coming in here and
buying up surplus ANIMALS at fancy prices
these buyers never go to communities where good
animals are scarce scattered, but always go
where they plentiful. This means that our cat
tie will provide us with another money crop
With increased cattle culture has come inter-
est in permanent pastures, which are too few here
but can be readily grown Much Lespedeza was
planted this year and there will be considerable CAL
pet grass sown this fall both for permanent pastur
age. A number also planning to plant combin-
alton of carpet grass and white clover
