secluded spot with men who will see
that fair and square deal is given,
and fight it out until one or the other
declares through his friends that he
has had enough; then they shake
hands and return to their homes sat-
isfied with the decision. How much
better this course is than the gun route,
every fair-minded person will admit.
One found the words for life" written
on his heart, behind prison bars, with
perhaps a family who was forced to
move from the scene of the murder, to
endure privation all their days, to
change their name. and the name of
their children, to hide their shame in
some remote corner of the earth. The
other shows new-made grave where
oblivion is written over the quiet scene
where is laid the victim of one who
failed to consider the results of unpre-
meditated gun play.

AN ARGUMENT FOR
THE MANLY ART"

Brisbane Walker, the news writer
who gathers in lots of money monthly,
IS working overtime trying to say ev-
erything bad about the man who is a
'prizefighter. He throws a stone at ev-
eryone who has any use for such a
lowdown thing as pricefighting" and
gives Bernard Shaw great dig by stat
ing that Mr.. Shaw only thinks he is
civilized. But the great American pub
lie gets the most of his venom, be-
cause they really go to see these fights
and pay exorbitant prices to see. men
pummel >each other until one or the
other has gone down to defeat.
Mr.. Walker, with all his wisdom, has
oVerstepped the mark and completely
lost sight of the object behind the pad
,ded circle.
There can be no denying that the So
called manly ar" has done more for
this country, to lift it out and away
from the era of the gun, than almost
ANYTHING one can mention. In the ear
ly history of our country the ready gun
answered all questions and settled all
arguments. If man had difference
with his neighbor, one cor both were
buried, families were estranged, whole
sections were allied against each Other,
teuds were started, and the graveyards
grew fat, and chaos reigned over the
whole country. To own gun was
considered the proper thing; to use it
was considered a manly thing. To
learn how to use gun so that he could
get the drop on his man, was the es-
sence of manhood. In those times there
were few or no fist tights. mol That
was undignified, to use ones fists To
spoil your enemy's face. in a square,
stand-up fight, to see who was the bet
ter man. and let the matter be settled
for good, was the sport of brutes; and
no real man would think of such a
course to settle his troubles. But lat
er we find that the custom has gained
favor in certain parts of the country,
and we found to our amazement that
men became so clever at the game of
self-defense that they gave exhibitions
throughout the country spreading won
derment wherever they went at the
marvellous dexterity of the antagonists,
and the game of the squared circle"
became a plaything of the young men
Of the nation. Now. when real men
have quarrel they go forth to some

TREAT POTATO SEED
TO PREVENT SCAB

Irish potato growers for market or
home use should treat all potato seed
with formal.dehyde before planting to
prevent potato scab, according to
George L. Tiebout, horticuturist, Lou
isiana State University. The scab d.
sease causes the rough, pitted spots on
the surface of the potato and detracts
a great deal from the appearance of
the tuber as well as reduces its market
value. Very badly affected seed with
the surface more or less covered with
deep pits is not suitable for planting
even after treatment and growers
should not buy such seed.
The solution to be used in treating
the potatoes is made by mixing one
pint of commercial formaldehide with
thirty gallons of water. The seed pota-
toes are then soaked in this solution
hours. This should be done just be-
fore planting and before the potatoes
are cut. Formaldehyde can be obtain
ed at almost any drug store. Growers
planting small amounts of seed can
make up solution in the proportion
Of one ounce of formaldehyde to two
gallons of water. Five and one-haIf
gallons of the solution will cover a
bushel of potatoes.
Further details regarding the potato
scab are given in Louisiana State Uni
versity Extension Circular No. s which
will be sent free on request.
