AND 1T ENDED THERE.
Beckett assumed his chiu-pro-
truding attitude in his fight with
Carpenter and the Frenchman
landed solidly on the point. The
tight ended then and there. Joe

their fight but because Moran is

effort for Frank to reach him.
When he did the lights went out
for Joe and the entertainment was
over.
The fact that Beckett has been
Knocked out by Carpenter and
Moran has created the belief that
the Englishman has a glass jaw. But
l imagine that the glass jaw label
would be hooked onto any fighter
living who put out his chin in the
same inviting fashion as Beckett
did. For il is an established fact
that no man lives who is abso-
lutely imperviOus to solid smash
upon the vulnerable point of the
jaw.
And that's the very spot which
Beckett not only leaves uncovered
hut which he sticks out no that ii is
an almost unmissable target.
HE MIGHT CLIMB.
If Joe ever acquired the trick
of buryinG his chin somewhere i'm
the region of his neck and hunchcd
his shoulders so that there would
be no further protection for his
chin. he might climb to heights in
pugilism. For I believe that Beckett,
basically, is game and that he can
take all the ordinary head punish
ment and body pounding that is
necessary for man who aspires to
ring greatness.
Beckett Is slow in movement and
slow in thinking. There is nothing
brilliant. nothing snowy. nothing
spectacular about his work. He is
rather fearful and savage looking
sight when the gong sends him into
action and the expression on his
face is the tip-off that he is there
to fight with everything he has got.
But Joe. owing to the fact that
nature didn't endOw him with sneed
and that he himself has more Gr
less spurned teachers. hasn't much
more than strength in his punches
and considerable ruggedness

That the popularity of radio is
spreading throughout the public schools
in this city was especially noted Tues
day. A reporter for Every Evening,
accommodating throughout the cleo

the radio bugs was surprised at tho
larEe number Of amateurs following
the game. During the course OF one
hour following the close Of the school

mated that nearly four hundred
school children. mostly boys between
the age of fourteen and eighteen. ap-
piled for the various parts OF the
radio apparatus.

each purchase follows a bombardrnent
OF questions relative to the home
manufacturing of the radio instru-
ment.
How far can you receive? This
among the amateurs.
To avoid answering this question,
one electrical supply store on Orange
street. between Ninth and Tenth
streets, has posted the following:
How far can you receive? That's
a bone-head question. Its like asking

GROWERS WARNED
ON USE Of SPRAY

FORT VALLEY, Ca, April Is
the Georgia peach belt are at loss
to know why so much injury to
peach twigs has resulted this year
from the use of lime sulphur during
the winter for the control of the
San Jose scale. Complaints of this
trouble have been received during
the past three months by the gov
eminent laboratories here from
peach growers in practically every
community of the peach belt and in
most cases the injury has resulted
from liquid lime sulphur when used
at the recommended strength of one
to eight.
After a thorough investigation It
was found that the injury in ma
jority of these orchards had resulted
from applying the winter spray too
early, and that the lack of entire
dornancv of the trees when the
spray was applied caused the trou-
BILE.
The temperature during November
and December was abnormally high.
Only one night in November did the
temperature go down to 80 degrees,
and only two nights in December
did the mercury descend to the freez-
inS point. Even though peach trees
had shed their foliage the weather
during those two months was sucn
that entire dormancy was impossl-
bic. Furthermore, a great deal OF
summer pruning was done last year.
a practice that growers were eau
toned against. In orchards where
the trees had been summer pruned
this too would have a tendency to
throw the trees into new growth,
causing them to go into dOrmancy
very late, if at all. Late cultivation
also induces late dormancy. Yet, IN
view of all these factors a tremendous
amount of winter scale spray was
applied during November and De-
cember, when the trees were not en-
tireIy dormant, and as a conse-
quence a great deal of last year S
growth has been destroyed on &C
count of spray injury.
Dormant scale sprays can be ap-
piled with safety in the north short
| ly after the foliage falls; however,
in our latitude this cannot be done
unless there is enough cold weather
and light freezes IN the late fall and
early winter to force the trees into
| entire dOrmancy.
Growers are advised to pay par
| ticular attention to weather condl-
tions is the fall to determine the
! time to start with the scale spray.
! The Caust:c materials necessary to
produce mortality of the San Jose
scale will injure the previous sea-
sons growth of the peach tree un'
less it is entirely dormant. Atten-
ton is also called in advance to the
very bad practice of summer prun-
ing of peach trees which was starr
ed last year by some growers. Leave
this operation also until the trees
are dormant, and avoid throwing
them into late growth, and also in"
terfering with the food celebrating
machinery Of the tree when it is in
active operation nourishing the fruit
buds for next seasons crop.
