a very small number OF seeds, II any.
Both In spring and In fall the leaves
are injured by the least touch OF frost,
and heavy frost is always fatal. The
cowpea withstands moderate shade
sufficiently well to be valuable YIN
orchards. In heavy shade the plants
are usually much attacked by mildew.
The cowpea succeeds on practically
all types Of soil. 1t does apparently
quite as well on sandy soils as on
heavy clays. but will do better than
clover or alfalfa on thin soils or soils
that are poor In lime. No other
legume can be grown so successfully
and on such variety Of soils under
adverse conditions as the cowpea. A
very rich soil is not conducive to the
best results with this crop. On such
soil an abundant vine growth Is
produced, while the yield of grain Is
small. Poor soils will produce little
growth Of vine, but will generally
yield good proportion Of seed. Clay
soils will not produce a heavy yield
the first year. but the crop will sue
coed much better the second season.
It may be said that the cOwpea will
do best on good corn land, but will
thrive on all types Of soil that are
well drained, properly lnoculated, and
moderately rich.

SEALING OF SILO IMPORTANT
Satisfactory Plan Is to Husk Ears
From Last Few Loads, Tramp
~ and Moisten Well.

Proper sealing Of the silo Is essen
tial in reducing the amount Of waste
silage. An easy and satisfactory meth
cd is to husk the ears from the last
three or four loads of corn that are
to go into the silo. and run only tie
stalks and leaves through the cutter.
When these last loads are tramped
and soaked with 20 to 30 barrels of
water, the top will be well sealed and
there will be only thin layer of
waste. Moreover, there will be no ear
corn In this waste. because 1t was
husked out and made available for
other purposes.

ears on stalks standing singly with an
unusual amount Of space around them.
Preference should be given the plants
that have produced most heavily In
competition with full stand Of
vigorous plants. A well-balanced stalk
bearing two good ears will usually
be found to have produced as much
seed as any other stalk. Both ears
are equally valuable for seed, even
though one may be much smaller than
the other.
In the central and southern states,
all other things being equal, short thick
stalks are preferable. They are not so
easily blown down, and in general are
more productive than slender ones.

Lime should always be applied to

mend that It be applied in the fall.
When 1t is put on the land, however,

1t should never be plowed under be-
cause 1t is carried downward In the

Something Burning,

aware of most unusual odor. Sit

Committee to Name
Defending 4 To-day

THE line of defense to be thrown
about the historic Davis Cup,
emblematic of the last word in the
science of tennis, will be announced
to-day by the cup committee of
the Lawn Tennis Association of the
United States. The committee are
George T. Adee, Robert D. Wrenn,
Beais c. Wright, Samuel Hardy and
Harold Fl. Hackett.
The naming of William T. Tiiden
is a certainty. His defeat by Vim
cent Richards Will have little in
fuence with the committee. II will
probably be regarded as one of
those twists of fate which occur in
the career of every champion.
The American representatives in
the singles lie among William NJ.
Johnston, Watson NJ. Washburn.
Vincent Richards and r. n. Will
lianis. The other selections will
probably be Washburn, Williams
and Johnston, the judgment of the
committee being based on their ex-
perience as internationalists.
The Kinsey brothers, of Califor-
MIA, are favorites for the defense in
doubles, although Williams and
Washburn appear to be the best
team in the country.

In the second set the Californian
came back surprisingly, sweeping
through six games in row as she
smothered returns at the net and
scored Placement aces with beautiful

as though Miss Goss was going to
lose her confidence, and with it the
match, but she soon set these fears

reached So by brilliant work both
from back court and st the net. The
sixth game was hard fought by both
before Miss Goss won, and then she
took the seventh for 4-3. Here Miss
Browne showed her courage again by
winning the eighth to square the
match but it was her last victory, Miss
Goss taking the next two for the set
and match.
AS MISS Browne left the court she
said to her conqueror:
