PRAISE FOR NUTMEGS
Providence journal Speaks in High
Terms of Contest Between Locals
and Steam Rollers.

The Providence Journal, in its Mon
day sport columns contain a story of
the NutmegS-S Steam Rollers game in
Providence last Sunday, makes no at
tempt to take one iota of praise from
the locals for the splendid victory at
Kingsley Park. On the other hand,
Manager Copper, who is also sporting
editor of the paper gives the locals
full credit for their accomplishment.
The account speaks of the game as
one of the finest ever staged in ProNi-
dence, and was won by the alortneSs
of Captain Barnikow. Al no time does
the writer attempt to take any credit
for the victory away from the locals.
That the Nutmegs are wanted back
again next Sunday in Providence, is
accepted that they play clean and sat
isfaCtory football.

BABE RUTH HAS
NOTHING TO SAY
BambinO Will Remain Silent
"FOr a Long Time"

Washington, Dec. G.--l}abe Ruth,
King Of Swats, does not expect to
break his silence on the decision of
Judge Lands deprivinE him of his
share Of the Worlds Series money
and barring him from professional
baseball until May 20, 1922, 'Tor Il
long time"
lie denied last night that he hal
made any statement whatever as Il
result of Judge Landis's ruling, and
declared that he had absolutely
nothing" to say. Asked concerning
short interviews printed in yester
days afternoon papers stating that he
made it clear he would not quit or
ganized baseball, Ruth asserted that
he did not know where they came
from,
when will you be ready to say
something on the decision?" he was
asked.
Not for Il long time. I haven't
said anything and haven't got a thing
to say"
Some of Ruth's friends with him
here yesterday reflected his determi-
nation not to talk and indicated that
he has made up his mind on abso-
lutte silence for the time being. He
declined to state whether or not he
would apply for reinstatement after
May 20, Judge Landis's decision hav-
ing made his further appearance in
uniform conditional upon his applica-
ton. His apparent attitude is that
there are several months before the
reopening of the baseball season, dur
ing which he can think over at
leisure.
Ruth was informed of Judge Lam
dis's ruling by newspaper men while
he was waiting in the wings of the
local theater at which he is appear
ing this week.

WHITE GRUB CAUSING DAMAGE
Reports from All Over County Are
That Potatoes and Strawberry
Beds Are Being Destroyed.

The common white grub worm is
doing considerable damage in Audu-
bon county, according to the County
Agent. Numerous complaints have
come in to the Farm Bureau office
about some worm destroying their
strawberry beds, potatoes and lawns.
Several have reported damages in
the potatoe fields, which makes the
County Agent believe that lot of
fields are infested. They bury them
selves into the tuber eating their
way into the potatoes, which spoils
them for use. In places where a
potatoe field is being badly injured
it would be well to dig the potatoes
up Immediately to prevent further
damage.
In the strawberry beds where they
have caused considerable damage,
they have been eating the roots, and
the plants may be pulled up easily.
because they have cut the plant from
its roots
Lawns have been damaged to some
extent by the grub an spots where
they have worked and killed the
grass, the sod can be rolled up like
carpet.
The eggs are laid in June and
hatch in about two weeks into the
small grub 1t then takes them 2
to 3 years to become full grown
grubs. In July they change to soft,
white pupa. The pupa stage is about
3 to weeks, and in August or Sep
TENDER the adult beetle comes out
but 1t remains in the pupae skin I'M
till spring, when it comes out as a
hard beetle. The beetle feeds upon
the foliage of various trees.
AS allowing land to remain in
grass for several years is conducive
to the increase Of the grubs, fire.
quent rotation will prevent their
multiplication, the grass being fol-
lowed by potatoes, buckwheat, small
grains, or some crop not seriously
injured by them.
AS the beetles remain IN the pupa
cells over winter and are tender and
not fully hardened, deep blowing
early spring will kill large numbers
of them by breaking open the cells
and exposing them to the weather
and by burying and crushing them.
Swine will gorge themselves on
grubs in badly infested land, and IL
confined so that they will thorough
ly root 1t over. will very effectually
rid 1t of them. Flocks Of chickens
or turkeys following the pillow will
catch considerable number Of the
grubs, as do the crows and black
birds. which pay for the corn they
eat by the war they wage on grubs.
The beetles may be Jared from
the trees upon which they are feed
ing in the cooler part of the night
and collected, as is extensively done
in Europe. Lanterns hung over pans
or tubs containing water with a sur
face film of kerosene placed near the
trees on which they feed, will catch
large numbers on warm nights when
/ they are flying.
