or sprouts. When these sprouts have
developed roots they may be removed
from the tuber cutting and planted,
and the cutting will then send out
new sprouts. This practice is en-
ployed to ecure a maximum number
of sprouts from a small stock of po-
tatoes.
Root Cuttings
May be used in the propagation of
many plants which show a tendency
to sucker and such grasses as John
son, Bermuda, etc, horse radish is
also propagated by root cuttings.
Plants in nature reproduce their
kind by seeds, spores, rootstocks.
stolons, suckers or rootsprouts, bulbs,
corns and tubers. Man has developed
several artificial means of reproducing
plants, such as cutting, layering,
grating and budding. We have al
ready described reproduction by seed
and most plants reproduce by seed.
Spores
Plants of the fungus and mushroom
varieties are propagated by spores.
Rootstocks
Grasses and plants which develop
rootlets in all directions from the
parent plant, and throw up the stems
of new plants at intervals. johnson
grass and Bermuda grass are good
examples.
Stoions
Plants which throw out trailing
branches or which in turn
take root at their ends or at joints.
thus producing new plants, of which
the strawberry is an excellent exam
pie. Blackberries and raspberries re-
produce in a similar way as the tips
of the canes take root when they
touch the ground.
Suckers and Rootsprouts
Many bush fruits and roses repro
sent up from lateral roots. Outside
of bush fruits this method is not ad-
visable.
Bulbs and Corns
A bulb is really a bud which forms
at or just beneath the surface. They
may be divided into two general
classes: (1) Those composed of scales
which are more or less narrow and
loose as in the lily and (2) those com
posed of more or less continuous and
close fitting layers as in the onion.
Small bulbs or bubbels develop around
the large or mother bulb. Bubblets
are small bulbs borne entirely above
ground as in the Sets of onions,
corns resembles bulbs but are solid
throughout as the tulip, gladiolus, etc.

Attempted burglary of Kahului
Store was frustrated early Friday
morning when the night Waterman
on his rounds about / o'clock discov-
cred a faint light within the building.
He aroused Manager Kirkland and
Messrs. Church, Walsh and Jacobs
who proceeded to investigate. Quietly
they surrounded the building and
Church and Walsh went in through
the door to the office. AS they en-
tered the store the burglar ran back
and broke a window in the rear but
seeing Kirkland and Jacobs outside
he turned away and mysteriously dis
appeared. The Waterman had also
stepped into the store and it is
thought the thief slipped out of the
office door through which Church and
Walsh had entered. Lying by the
window through which the burglar
had entered was found a watch and
a bottle of perfumery.
A fatal accident occurred on the

 A DARK HORSE
That Is the Dope Handed Out iby the Football Author ities Already.

SEATTLE, Sept. 15,IUniversity of Washingtons football team will be the dark horse of the 1921 Pacific Coast Conference race, according to football authorities at the local in stithtion.
 Enoch Bagshaw, the new coach, has big job ahead of him this sea son, for seven members of the 1929 varsity will not be back. BagshaM however, hopes to build up a team which will better the record of the 1920 eleven, which did not win one conference game.
 Two veteran tackles, Bill Ingram and Zeke Clark. will be the nucleus for the Washington , line. In the backfield Ray Eckman. 1921 captain, will be the pivot of the team. Eek man, although not very big. ranks as one of the fastest players in the con ference. ,.
 There is talk that Clyde Coleman, a big colored halfback, who started on Seattle high, school team sev- eral years ago, will be out for a place Coleman is a powerful play CT and very fast.
 For quarterback, Johnny Wilson, llnderstudy to Bob Abel, is being con, sidered, Wilson is a good kicker.

K|LBANE TO DEFEND FEATHER
 WEIGHT TITLE NEXT SATURDAY

CLEVELAND Sept. 15,-1t will be age when Johnny Kilbane, feather weight champion of the world, de- fends his title in the ring at Dunn Field here next Saturday afternoon Johnny Kilbane, who has made for tune in the ring. is 32-not decrepit old age, as men in other lines judge it, but for the ring an old, old man and one who gives evidence of the fact that his best fight has probably been fought.
 Opposing him. and fighting for the glory and the opportunity for big money that a champion brings, is. Danny Frush, of Baltimore, youth of P, who has been climbing the heights of pugilistic fame in spec tacular fashion and who was so anx- ious to make this, match that he agreed to fight for $2,500-little more than training expenses while his wary and experienced opponent re- ceives $65,0OO- win, lose or draw.
 The battle willTbe fought 12 rounds to decision. Frush must make sl3S pounds ringside, which is four pounds above the weight made by Kilbape when he wrested the title from Abe Attell nine years ago. .
 Sports writers and sports authori ties generally say Johnny kilbane is going back. His fight of few months ago with Sammy Jacks seemed to bear out this statement; for, while Johnny toyed with his Op ponent and won easily, all agreed after the bout was over that the scrap was made-to-order "set-up' for the champ. Critics, however point to his fights with Benny Val ger, who is said to have outpointed him at Newark last year; and Frankie Brown and Andy Chaney are both given credit for outhitting him. but the margin in each instance was close, and there were many who maintained that he won.
 In Frush Kilbane meets tall rangy lad, with two good hands and good head and with enough speed to enable him to move fast both of fensively and defensively. He has gone through the featherweight di- vision like cyclone and has vic tories to his credit over such lads as Andy Chaney, Xii Julian, Artie Root Johnny Pope,' Freddie Jacks,4 Artie O'Leary, Joe Leonard, Tommy Noble, Eddie Wallace and Texas Kid.
 Kilbane, however, is extremely con- fident of winning 'Ill be champion long time yet says Johnny, with

his Irish smile, but other champions have been just as confident and nave been dethroned He's better boxer that is unquestioned-but can he last 12 rounds?
 Danny Frush, the "Limehouse Knight who hopes to wear the laur- els after September r, is considered Ia very workmanlike performers fellow who knows his job and does lit well.
 He is not given credit for the speed for which his older opponent was at one time noted. Johnny is marvel of grace and springness in the ring, but Frush. is different, kind of a fighter. He goes straight at his man and stays with him, de pending upon his legs only to carry him out of immediate danger when the opposing attack ,Waxes hot. He always seems to be moving toward his man. He fights in the Leonard style. F.sr.a efay1f4iE- The referee ana two judges will ronuef ucClSlOu II 'lHc UUut 6OSo ehC limit
 The Frush bout marks Kilbane's return to the ring after a long period of comparative idleness. The show is being promoted by Tommy Mc- Ginty and Sammy Deutsch.
 Kilbane was induced to meet FrusA after long barley with various rro- motors. McGinty finally landed the match by, outbidding the opposition. and Dunn Field will house one of the largest fight crowds in the i.is- tory of boxing in Cleveland, if the advance sale is an indication of in terest in the bout.
 Frush will make 126 pounds for the champion, who will enter the ring at catchweights. The bout will be the 86th kilbane has fought in defense of his crown since winning it from Abe Attell nine years ago.
