PREDICTED FIGHT TIME
IS ONE SECOND SHORT

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. July 22.-A
tick Of the. clock prevented three Ala
bamans from predicting correctly the
length OF time which the Dempsey
Carpenter fight would run. Mrs. j.
e. Fuchs and W. II. Peck. of this city
and Harold Fullmer, OF Leeds each
predicted the fight would last ten min
utes and fifteen seconds. Each miss
ed being correct by one second and
tied for first place in the contest
staged by local newspaper. Sport
critics believe these TO be the most ac-
curate predictions made anywhere in
the world concerning the length Of
the fight.

IRRIGATION IN sIGHTl
DROUGHTs IN MARYLAND WOULD
SEEM TO DEMAND THIS 1NNO-
vATION TO SAVE OUR CROPS.

Because of the long and frequent
droughts in Maryland during this
and former years, irrigation is sug-
gested as the only means by which
crops can be made at all possible.
The numerous small streams, which
ramify Carroll, make this an ideal
county for the introduction OF the
system by which water may be stored
and distributed as needed. The OBJ
lection is at once urged that the ex-
pense OF installation and upkeep Of
the system Is prohibitiye. In all call
culations the estimated costs are for
one year, the theory being that
droughts come only at long intervals
As a matter OF fact, they are almost
annual yisitations, Hence the original
cost becomes small when the bene-
fits, extending over a long, series Of
years, are considered. The late Daniel
Banks, a Baltimore engineer, who
constructed eight irrigation dams in
Nevada and California, declared once
that irrigation could be successfully
introduced on the Eastern Shore OF
Maryland. with which he was famii-
lar, at one eighth the cost In West
ern States while the returns would be
eight times larger The fruit crop in
Maryland has been curtailed this
year almost beyond belief by the
drought according TO s. n. Shaw,
specialist in horticulture for the
University OF Maryland Extension
Service. This viii mean" saws MIR.

pie and small fruit crops throughout
The state. but reports from numerous
counties indicate serious damage 10

The losses incurred by CBrrgg
County farmers because Of tho
drought cannot be estimated. Here
however these questions are peril,
nent
Could not these losses have heen
ayerted by irrigation? Could not q
series n similar losses In former
years been adverisd2 Gamer losses
from the same cause be nyerted in IN,
future?
