AVOID PESTS in
PEAS and BEANS
Large Part Of Loss From WeeviIs
Can Be Prevented by Using
Some Precaution.
INSECTS VIGOROUS BREEDERS
infestatlons Can Be Quickly and Ef-
fectively Stamped Out by Fumi-
cation With Carbon fDisul-
phide or Hydrocyanic Gas.

Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
( If farmers will plant weevil-free
seeds, harvest beans, peas and cow
peas as soon as possible, treat the
crop to kill weevils and store 1t
where seeds can be protected from re-
infestation by weevils spreading from
infested seeds, large part of the
loss from these insects can be pre-
vented, according to Farmers Bulle-
tin 1875, Weevlls in Beans and Peas,
by e. A. Back, entomologist, just is
sued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Copies may be
obtained upon application to the de-
partment at Washington, d. G.
WeeviIs Are Injurious.
These weevils, which never attack
corn and wheat, and but rarely in
fest velvet beans, soy beans or
vetches, are particularly injurious be-
cause they can breed generation after
generation in dried seeds in storage.
During the hottest summer weather
one generation requires only IS to 30
days for development. The average
total number of eggs laid by an indi-
vidual during her life is about 100.
Infested seeds in bulk usually heat,
thus producing temperature and
moisture conditions most favorable
for the rapid development and vigor-
Gus breeding Of weevils.
The belief that adult weevils have
developed from the germ" inside the
seed is erroneous. The small round
holes often observed in seeds are
made by the grubs Of the weevil,
which upon Matching from eggs laid
IN or on the pods, burrow into the
seeds by gnawing hole no larger
than a pin prick. Later the adults
emerge from the seeds.
Stamp Out Infestations.
Infestations in beans and peas can
be quickly and effectively stamped
out by fumigation with carbon disul-
phide. carbon tetrachlori1e, or hydro
cyanic gas, and by means Of heat or
cold storage. Weevils can be pre-
vented from breeding in storage by
mixing dust or air-slaked lime with
the seeds. Concerted action by a
community of growers has been
known greatly to reduce weevil in
festations and is recommended unre-
servedly for consideration in CONNER
cial bean-growing areas.

Quaker City Writer Says Walter
Should Win Twenty Games
This Year.

walter Johnson may be old and
decrepit, as the bards have sung in
recent years, but he did not show
it when he hurled against the Ath-
letics in the opening game" writes
a Philadelphia scribe. He did not
pitch the sort of baseball that once
marked him as the thunder and
lightning of the pitching peak. He
didn't depend on sheer speed.
''Sir Walters principle stock in
trade in these days seems to be a
slow ball. He laid that floater
down on the inside with particular
success against Joe Hauser. AS a
matter of fact, none of the Ath'
letics prodded him with any great
eclat. with the exception of Wild
Matthews and Jimmy Dykes.
I'm the old days Johnson, when
he faced a pinch, would hitch up
his trousers and burn the ball
through with everything he had
Ordinarily, throwing a fast ball
when the bases are populated, is
counting suicide, but not with the
sort of smoker" that used to make
it's home in Walter Johnson's right
sleeve. Those days have gone, how
ever, and the once king OF pitchers
has laid his smoker" aside in
favor Of a very passable hook
and that slow ball.
when johnson, a big, raw youth
came out of Kansas, with nothing
to recommend him but his terrific
speed, the dopesters all said that
he would not last. No man coulc
throw ball like that over any
appreciable time. But Walter

international Opens
Its Thirty-second
Season

The international Leagues
opening was its thirty-second.
The league was organized in
1892. Buffalo and Rochester
are the only cities now in the
league that were members of
the circuit when organized thir-
ty-two years ago. Providence,
Albany, Elmira, Binghamton,
Troy, New Haven, Utica and
Philadelphia were the other
members Of the league in 1892.
Elmira, New Haven, Philadel-
phia and Utica lasted only one
season. Albany and Troy
dropped out after two seasons.

One Stolen Base Is
Credited; Really
Swiped Three

CLEVELAND, April 21.-
The problem of stealing"
three bases and being credited
with only one stolen base has
been demonstrated. Ray Fish,
recruit White Sox outfielder,
stole second in the sixth inning
of the game with Cleveland,
beating Glenn Myatt's perfect
throw. A moment later he
sped for third and was safe
when Rube Lutzke dropped
Myatt's assist. Then he sprint
ed for the plate. Pitcher Ed
wards shot the ball to Wyatt,
but it rolled out of the catcher's
mitt.

original Judgment has proved faulty.
AS a matter of fact, and judg-
ing from past baseball history,
Roger Peckinpaugh belongs in Sec

Manager Bush doesn't make the

This is not a happy camp. Any

The Griffmen are due to close
their first series here today with
the Mackmen. They leave for New
York from North Philadelphia at
GA o'clock and should arrive in the
big town two hours later There
will be real Broadway strolls for
the rockies tonight, and not one
will miss them, either
THAT must be the biggest crowd
in the world said George Adonis
Fisher today, referring to the open
ing days mob at the Yanks' park.
'WelI, not in the world" came
the answer, but still. it's a pretty
good crowd at that
Where in the world has there
ever been a bigger crowd?" asked
Fisher.
Then he was told, convincingly.
Maybe, maybe, but if they had
Babe Ruth over there in England,
they'd have crowds of 2OO,0 and
3OO, 900, that's what they'd have"
concluded the rookie Griffman.
The Busting Bambino is sure q
| big favorite with the young players
coming into baseball. and everyone
here is hoping to see Babe hit one
of his patented home runs, that is,
if it can come when it won't hurt
any. The pitchers alone are against
| having Babe do any of his smuggling
| You can't blame them, either.
| The Griffs have five more games
to play before making their debut
at Georgia avenue. The first comes
today with Connie Mack's rejuve-
mated outfit. Then come four in a
row in New York against the Amer
lean League champions.
The Washington Club will leave
New York at midnight next Wed.
nesday, arriving the following
morning in Washington. and there
will be no morning practice that
day. Morning workouts are not to
be held after long train rides,
though they may be expected at all
other times while the team is at
home.
Manager Bush hopes there will
be no rain to interfere with the
early schedule. He wants his team
to play every day in order to per.
feet its team work as soon ss pos
sible. With new men in the lineup
this is a prime necessity, and the
sooner the gang gets to working
together, the sooner may it be ex
pected TO get somewhere.
Bush's team has not started out
much like a winner, but it has
hustled all the time. 1t has always
been ready to take advantage Of
breaks, If only those breaks would
come. This constant readiness IL
bound to have it's effect sooner OF
later, and the Griffs will begin Il
win their share of games befor,
going West next month.

and there are few golfers who have
not at some time in their golfing
lives thrown their clubs. confess
to the crime-and it is not less
than that-but it happened years
ago and do not think / shall ever

Ny own act occurred on the
fifteenth green at Glen View years
ago. was playing with. Kenneth
Edwards, then one Of the leaders Of
the game.
1 had been missing repeated
short puts and when 1 lost on
this green by missing a very
short one, threw my putter and
IL went high over the telepragil

Francis Ouinet, whose good temper
and patience are marvellous.

they either pick it up, or the 7olfer

remember that nearly lost MY
life once, escaping by an inch a
club thrown by an angry player.
I was very young, just beginning to
play well, and my opponent con.
sidered himself the better player.
1t happened that I had holed
several long puts, and finally
wound up the match by a thirty
footer.
Whiz! came the club past my
head, barely missing me. How.
ever, I have never heard of any
one being seriously hurt in this
way, but it is disgraceful
danger.
In the end golf is a great trainer
and leveler of bad habits. for a
man begins by blaming his club,
but he usually ends by recognizing
the fact that the fault lies with the
man behind it.
BY returning to the question as
to how far a golfer can throw q

standard idea on the subject.
From that experience I deduct that
a played could throw an iron-headed
club about $50 feet and not have to
be a McGrath. I think, however,
that $50 feet would be good
record.
We all know the feeling that one
could throw the club farther than
