BOORDE HAS OFFER TO TOUR THE WEST,
 SAYS I. TOMPKINS|
Local Boxer Offered Contract for Ten Fights in West
 ern Cities

An offer that may mean the making of Freddie Boorde if it is accepted has been made Tommy Tompkins, who is handling Boorde around at the Ath- lctic club these days. An opportunity to tour the west and southwest, taking part in ten fights, has been given the local boy by rather generous offer from bona fide fight promoter of the southwest, one Billy Strange, who while perhaps not so well known in Birmingham is regarded as one of the most prominent figures in boxing out west.
 contract offered Tommy TOmp-
 kins calls for 10 fights by Boorde, with opponents selected by Strange.
 This last clause is the only thing
 in the way of acceptance, states
 Tommy, who wants his say in
 who will he Freddie's opponents. Tommy says if he can have this
 clause changed so as to read, with opponents picked by Strange, but
 with TOmpkins' approval" he will snap the contract up and the in- vasion of the west will he on by BOordc

MINNESOTA is ALL READY
State Gets Chance to Help Save the
Starving Chinese.

otafviIS NnIHSSS.
All Minnesota will have a chance to
lelp fill 100000 empty bowls that
starving Chinese are holding out to-
ward America. All signs indicate that
his state is not going to turn a deaf
sar to the stifled moan that is floating
across the Pacific
With the Hoover campaign for tho
celief OF starving Europe completed.
Harry e. Wilbern, who brought that
1ndertak king to a successful conclusion,
has taken active charge of the drive to
aid the Chinese, and headquarters have
been opened in Minneapolis.
Organizations wiki be formed in
every county ard systematized cam
paigns will be waged for funds in ALL
It is thought that tag days, such as
The money that recently raised $500
In Minneapolis, may be put on in Vari-
Dus cities of the state. Advertising
matter and posters are now being sent
put.
In the meantime, all those who wish
TO contribute to the famine fund, may
send their checks to E. w. Decker,
treasurer, 121 Chamber of Commerce,

In spite Of the fact of declining
rural population, we see a crop in
1920 which, while not the largest we
ever had exceeds that of many pre-
vious years when the farm population
was much greater. This reveals that
machinery and better cultural methods
are averting the threatened evil Of
loss of farm labor, and that we may
have been overconcerned and too fear
full Of the future, says st. Louis Globe
Democrat. Economic conditions have
the world-old habit Of adjusting them
selves. We live in a world of con-
slant change, of new devices to meet
new conditions. The world was never
so sure Of it's ability to produce and
distribute an abundance of food as it
is today. We may be sure that the
resourceful American people will find
ways to overcome the menace of ag-
ricultural insuficiency.

VINCENT AIDS CHINESE
Former Head of University
Pleads for Famine Victims.

DR.. George E. Vincent, former presi-
lent Of the University of Minnesota,
ind now president of the Rockefeller
Foundation, New York City, has raised
lis voice in a plea to people Of Mime
sofa to give literally to the relief of
he Chinese famine sufferers.
The plea is especially effective be-
cause the Rockefeller Foundation is
loing vast amount of relief work in
China. The Rockefeller family, too,
las donated 100000 for the famine
sufferers.
''There can be no doubt as to the
widespread famine, disease and suffer-
ng in China" DR.. Vincent telegraphed
o the Minnesota committee of the
China Famine Relief fund "State-
nents and appeals of the national COM
nittee may be accepted with full con-
idence. Foodstuffs are now available
and transportation in China is improv-
mg so that distribution can be guaran-
iced. The situation is very critical and
It calls for immediate and generous
response"
B. F. Benson, chairman OF the Min
aesota committee, in commenting on
he message said that these few words
from DR.. Vincent proved more than
anything else that has been said of
The terrible need of the Chinese. Con-
:ributions sent to The China Famine
Fund, 121 Chamber of Commerce, Min
leapolis, will be immediately transmit
ed to China by cable.

Former Minneapolis Newspaperman

All Minnesota is taking a personal

known Minneapolis man is playing q
stellar role there.
He is Ray G.. Marshall, former city
editor of the Minneapolis Journal, who
Is working out of famine headquarters
In Picking without any pay. In his 20
years of newspaper work, Mr.. Marshall
has seen suffering and misery in all
forms, but he admits he is stunned by
the situation that confronts the work

1t is estimated, on a basis Of a
QUESTIONABLE study made by the chill
dren's bureau of the United States
Department Of Labor, that $4,000
children we're brought before the
courts in the United States in a year.
OF these, $4,000 came before courts
not adapted to handling children's
cases. Although every state, except
one, had laws providing for juvenile
probation according to Investigations
Of the bureau, less than half Of the
courts hearing children's cases actu-
ally had probation service. The ma
jority of the courts failed to make
adequate investigation Of the child's
home and family circumstances, his
physical and mental condition and his
personal tendencies.

After planting, cut the canes back
to Within a few inches of the ground
to force the growth of the new
sprouts which will bear the. first

Getting an Old Bed Into Good Con-
-. dition.
| -. If you have am old berry patch,
which has been neglected. and no
longer gives satisfactory RESULTS, it
can be very quickly brought back
into good shape by the following
| treatment:
First cut out ALL the old dead
canes clear back to the ground.
Next, cut out most of the new ones,
leaving only one orjtwo of the strong
est in each clump. Those remaining
may cut back lightly between the
plants, addin a good top-dressing Of
| the bone NEAL small handful to
each cQump of canes. AS soon as the
leaves start, give light application
of Nitrate Of Soda, handful to five
to ten feet of row. Work the soil
over two or three times at in tervals
of about ten days so as to be sure
to get out all the weeds, sod and so
forth which may have escaped the
first digging up.
Stretching Out the Game Fruit
Season.
To enjoy the"Cane Fruits'' through
as long a season as possible black
berries and dewberries should be
planted in addition to raspberries.
In general they require the same
culture as that given raspberries;
but, if there is any choice in soils,
the blackberries and dewberries may
be given drier and sander soil than
the raspberries; and they require q
little more room in which to develop.
They may be set from one to two
feet farther apart each way than the
raspberries. E1dorados Snyder and
Mersereau are three of the best of
the blackberries; and Lucretia is the
standard sort of dewberries-the
latter ripen earlier than the black
berries.
A few dozen plants of the various
cane fruits, involving only small in
vestment, will give an abundant sup
ply of delicious berries a season Of
several weeks, year after year,-and,
if taken care of, will occupy very lit
tie space in the home garden.

GOOD THAT LUNCHES DO.

The ideal accompaniment to health
education in the schools, and the dis
covery Of underweight, is the school
lunch. says School Life. In every case
in which school lunches have been
made available, and the teaching of
food values has gone on, too, the chill
dren have made wonderful progress
in weight. Improvement in physical
condition is accompanied by improved
school standing. 1t has been stated by
authorities that the school lunch
without health education does little.
Boys and girls who are taught what
to eat, and then have the opportunity
to eat it, learn the taste of unaccus-
toned foods and carry practical les
son right home, and this lesson is cas-
lily repeated there. Many children
have been found playing school at
home and teaching the value of vari-
Gus foods to their younger brothers
and sisters. When the parents notice
and come to school to find out from
the teacher what it all means, the most
valuable link in the chain of health
for the school child is forged. There
are hundreds Of ways of pointing out
to school children the value of health
habits, and teachers and scholars
themselves, acting on the impulse of
the moment, can achieve great things.
