BRISTOL TEAM EASY

N. B. H. s. Quintet Wins By
 Wide Margin-JuniorS Also

With little difficulty, the local High school team walked away from the Bristol High quintet in II to game played in the Franklin Square gymnasium last night, and even after the two forwards, Bunny and Taylor, were taken from the game in the sec ond half and the locals played with a team consisting Of four regular guards and center. the losing team could make no headWay. The first half ended with the score PC to in the locals favor. During that period the line marking the third quarter of the floor, on the local schools side, had been crossed but three times and once after a personal foul had been called. Aylesworth handled the whistles in his usual efficient manner.
 Trouble Is Averted.
 The easy victory for the New Britain High was due mainly to the follow-up game played by both for wards. Jack Bunny had an off night on shooting baskets but for what he lacked in that department of the game he more than made up for in passing and guarding. Burns was the scoring machine for the N. B. H. S., having nine field baskets to his credit. Tn the last 10 minutes of play, O'Connen, the Bristol guard struck Burns while going for jump ball. The referee warned the player and called both men together for an other jump. When O'Connell again struck Burns. the local center shot an egg crate Wallop" that narrowly missed the chin of the Bristol man. Coach Dunn requested Burns to go to the showers to guard against fur thfr trouble.
 In the second half, Brink and Bay lock took the places of Taylor and Bunny as forwards. Itenehan and keefe were sent in as guards, and after Burns was removed Brink went 1 to center and Vibberts took his place at guard.
 F'uncke, the diminutive forward l for the losing team, was the only man to register. The team that is i credited with a win over Hartford High seemed to be dazed at the show ] of speed and trick passes were easily executed by the locals:

HOW TO BLEACH WOODS AND
SILKS
Article Nv.

Neither Javelle nor potassium per-
manganate can be used TO remove
stains from silks or woods, unless
a stain is so bad that the slight
yellowing from Javelle or perman-
ganate is nothing as compared with
the stain. For both silks and woods.
horax can be used, as il is mild
bleach for either fabric. Hyposul-
phite Of soda, which is the "hypo
used in photography, can also be
used for wOolens or silks. A table
spoonful Of chrystals dissolved in a
quart Of water will make a good
rinse To whitcn silks; follow with
clear water. Silk or wool once yell
lowed, is hard to bleach because OF
It's delicateness.
For woods, sulphur fumes al
lowed TO pass through the clean,
wet garment is the best bleach.
Care should be used in doing this
work to avoid fire and not to subject
the worker 70 the danger OF inhal-
ing the fumes. Unless one has IA
cilities for working out OF doors IL
is rather inadvisable 10 attempt II.
A barrel and a sulphur candle make
a good bleaching outfit Place the
pan Of water, in which stands the
candle, down in the bottom Of the
barrel, so that the fumes from the
lighted candle are forced 10 rise
and circulate through the garment,
which is suspended in the barrel
on white strings or strips OF mus
lin. Be careful OF two things; do
not inhale the fumes, and arrange
the garment so as TO prevent fire.
Pale bluing in the rinse water OF
either white silks or woods will do
considerable towards keeping the
white clear and preventing its yell
lowing. Photographers "hypo" can
be used to restore the whiteness 10

OATS
Preparation of the Seed Bed

Less attention ordinarily is given
to the preparation of the seed bed
for oats than that for any other
field crop. In the corn belt, where
oats commonly follow corn, the seed
is often sown broadcast without
previous preparation Of the land.
IL is then covered by disking and
narrowing. Much better results
are obtained, however, by disking
the land before seeding, whether
the seed is sOwn broadcast or is
drilled. A good seed bed usually
can not be prepared with fewer than
two diskings and at least one har-
rowing. If the oats are to be sown
on corn land on which the stalks are
still standing, it is good practice TO
/ break the stalks before disking.
This can be done readily, especially
on frosty morning. by dragging a
heavy pole or iron rail broadside
across the field. The stalks then
can be cut with disk harrow much
better than if left standing. II the
disks of the disk harrow are sharp,
they will cut the stalk into short
pieces, which soon decay. II is
never advisable TO rake and burn
stalks and other trash on cornflelds
that are to be sown in oats unless
the quantity is so great that il can
not possibly be covered by disking.
This humus-making material should
not be destroyed but should be
worked into the soil.
Oats always should be sown as
early in the spring as the land can
be worked, but proper preparation
should not be sacrificed to gain
little time in getting the seed into
the ground. Oats do best when
sOwn in a rather firm seed bed, with
2 or 3 inches of loose, mellow soil
on the surface. This can be OBJ
tanned best on cornstalk land by
breaking the stalks, double-disking
either by tapping half or cross disk
ing, and thorough narrowing with
a spike-tOoth harrow. Tapping
half with a disk-harrow leaves the
surface more nearly even than when
the field is cross disked. The disks
should be set to run 3 or inches
deep. After the seed bed is in good
condition the seed should be sown
and the field again narrowed.
Treating the Seed for Smut
The yield Of grain and the quality
Of the crop also can be materially
increased by treating the seed for
smut. An easy and effective meth
cd Of treatment is TO sprinkle the
seed oats with a solution made by
adding one pound of formaldehyde
10 40 gallons Of water. The seed
should be spread on a clean floor,
thoroughly sprinkled, and shoveled
over until all OF the grain is we'll
moistened. IL should then be cover
ed with blankets or canvas and al
lowed 10 stand for several hours.
II can then be sown at once or
spread out in a clean place TO dry.
The seed will run through the drill
much more readily il dried before
seeding. The rate OF seeding
should be somewhat increased. TO
allow for the swelling OF the seed.
The treated seed should not be put
into sacks, bins, or machinery I'M
less the smut spores in them have
been killed by treatment with the
formaldehyde solution.
