With the bat Sisler was in class by
himself. for no college hurler bad any

a batting average of .543 for his entire

feature about his stick work was that
in only two games did he fail to make
a hit. and his career at Michigan ex-

SOY BEAN TAKING ITS
PLACE AS MAJOR CROP

The soy bean is rapidly taking
systems of the corn belt. replacing
oats to a considerable extent and TAX
ing part of the corn acreage, says the
Department of Agriculture. Although
primarily used for forage. pasture and
ensilage, the growing of seed during
the last few years has become a very
profitable industry. The production
of seed has now increased to the
point where the supply greatly ex-
ceeds the demand for planting.
County soy bean associations. grow
ers. county agents and extension Of
ficials, notably in Illinois and India
ma. have concerned themselves in the
development Of commercial outlet
for the seeds, it is noted. Several
mills in Illinois are interested in the
possibilities of that bean as source
of oil and meal. Two mills in Hi
nois have planned to use about $780,
900 bushels this season, it has been
reported to the department, while
other mills are planning on a small
Ter scale:
The department inspectors have
found considerable acreage put to
growing of the soy bean in the north
ern and corn belt states, showing
considerable increase. The possibili-
ties of using the bean for oil and
meal are ascribed by officials as the
reason for the increase. Such a com
mercial outlet affords the grower an
other cash crop as corn and wheat, it
is said
The various ways in which the soy
bean and its product are utilized in
the United States indicate a ready
market for the commercial production
of soy bean seed, the department cir
cular declares. Soy bean oil is large
~ used in the manufacture of soaps
and paints, and it is also used in the
manufacture of lard and butter sub
stitutes, linoleum and printing ink,
and as salad oil. The cake or meal
is superior cattle feed and of high
value for human consumption.

ATTACKS OF CH|CGERS
MAY Be REPELLED
BY USE OF SULPHUR

Popular belief TO the contrary, it's
only in a figurative sense that CHG
gers get under your skin. The little
kill-joys of the summer picnic in the
woods are right there on the surface
all the time. and it's Just because they
are too small TO be readily seen with
out magnifying glass that the vic
tim thinks he has been burrowed into
or entered by way of his pores.
This is one of the new lights
thrown upon the pest by Department
Bulletin $50, Studies on the Biology
and Control of Chiggers. prepared by
II. +. Ewing, specialist in mites, and
now issued by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
The chigger doesn't make his pres
about on the victim so fast that even
when he is spotted under a magnify
ing glass it is almost impossible 10
catch him. Evidently. he tries TO see
how far he can go, for it has been de-
termined that tight pieces of dress,
such as garters and belts, limit the
altitude of operation. Almost total
immunity has been secured, by wear
ing top shoes and tightly wrapped
leggins. Low shoes are particularly
favorable to the acquisition of CHG
gers. When a ehigger finally decides
to attach himself, he climps down by
inserting his feet under the skin, and
then the trouble begins.
Much protection can be had from
chigger attacks by properly clothing
the legs or by the application of re-
pellents either directly on the skin or
on the under garments. For this pur-
pose. sulphur has been found TO be a
sovereign remedy. busting the legs
with sulphur has resulted in total i'm
munity in most instances, and SINH
lar treatment of the stockings has
proved equally effective in keeping off
the mites. Infested areas may be
freed of chiggers by busting with sui
phur For this the use of so pounds
| to the acre is recommended. On
lawns the use of sulphur is unneces-
sary, as chiggers will disappear OF
themselves if the grass is kept cut
short
Chiggers can be best destroyed on
humans before they become attached
or very soon afterwards. After an
exposure to chigger attacks the skins
and ankles should be examined with a
hand lens. even before any itching is
felt Applications of a thick lather of
soap, commercial alcohol, or any of
the lighter oils have been found to
kill the larvae quite readily Sulphur
acts slowly, but if applied with SOAP
and allowed several minutes to act
should give good results.

as that which the company now has
in view would greatly. If not entirely,
relieve the congestion OF automobile
traffic. which has broken all records
during the present summer, because
the local ferry is of far greater con-
yenience TO persons travelling TO and
from the Eastern Shore, especially to
Maryland's only ocean resort. Ocean
City. AS previously told in these
columns, the ferry company has
greatly reduced its financial indebted
ness, and by selling the General Lin
coln, the expense of getting the New
York boat would not be much. Fur
thermore. with the big increase in
business this year, there is every
prospect for a successful future for
the ferry line. This makes the fourth
summer that the ferry has been in
operation.

that the boat under consideration will
be examined further before final de-
cision as TO its purchase is made.
