Minerals Assist Chicks
in Building Framework

The science Of feeding growing
chicks has developed by leaps and
bounds during the last few years. The
discovery of vitamins and their rela-
ton to poultry feeding, the Importance
Of clean yards and plenty of green feed
have made the business of growing
poultry more economically successful.
During the last few years more at
tention has been conferred upon the i'm
portance of a new element in the ra-
ton for growing chicks-minerals or
inorganic material. Minerals supply
three distinct functions in the chicks
ration. They go to build bone, which
is the framework of the future puIlet
or cockerel. A good skeleton is one
half the battle, because on it must be
attached the meat and in it must be
carried the organs of reproduction,
which produce the marketable product,
the egg.
Minerals also have been found by
scientific tests to aid materially in the
digestion of other foods. Lastly, min
erals have been found to exercise a
very definite relation in building up a
natural resistance and immunity
against disease.
This is probably accomplished by
keeping the birds IN perfect physical
condition.
What minerals to feed and how to
feed them becomes the problem of the
feeder Of growing chickens during the
summer, so that the pullets may be in
the pink of condition as to size and
vigor for the heavy winter lay.

Fight Weeds for
Vegetable Garden
Often Becomes Unsightly
Weed Patch Rather Than
Productive Spot.

1t is too often the common fate Of
the summer garden in North Caroline
to become an unsightly weed patch
rather than a productive spot adding
to the health and income of the fam
lily.
"We should not allow this to oc-
cur" says Glenn o. Randall, extension
horticulturist for the North Carolina
State College Of Agriculture. "Fresh
vegetables form a rich and cheap
source of those protective foods so
badly needed In the daily diet. These
foods are needed just as badly in the
hot weather of midsummer as in the
vigorous days of early spring, and it
is possible to have a continuous sup
ply of ~succuIent vegetables during hot
weather"
Shallow Cultivation.
To do this, however, Mr.. Randall
suggests that the growing vegetables
must be given shallow cultivation fire.
quently enough to maintain a thin soil
mulch and to kill weeds and grass.
Then, too, the refuse from the spring
vegetables must be cleaned out if dis
ease was present or composted If free
from disease and the space occupied
by this refuse planted to a succession
of vegetables.
Some crops that will Withstand the
hot weather are snap beans, lima
beans, sweet corn, cabbage, tomatoes,
New Zealand spinach and cucumbers,
1t is hardly possible to have a good
supply of the salad crops or green's"
such as lettuce, as they will not thrive
in hot weather; but New Zealand
spinach will help to supply this need.
Late Cabbage Planting.
Mr.. Randall states that it is now
time to plant seed for the late crop of
cabbage, such as the Succession and
All-Season varieties. Plants for a late
crop of tomatoes should also be set
out, using, preferably, the wilt-resls-
tant varieties.
Remember" says Mr.. Randall, "the
consumption Of green vegetables every
day serves as q protection against
sickness by aiding In maintaining the
vitality through the hot weather of
midsummer"

In fact, it. was his hitting pro-

One for the Book.
rD SMITH, of Chicago, widely

- ing and wrestling bouts, is

ming American. In his column the
other day he contributed this zone
for the books"
"The veteran George siler,
greatest of all fight referees,
made a remarkable decision one
night that ever will live as one
of the strangest ever rendered.
It was at the old American A. c.
on the South Side, and if memory
serves correctly the contestants
were Frank BARLEY and Shorty"
Ahearn, a colored boy. 1t was
Bartley's fight by a mile until the
last six or eight seconds of the
battle, when Ahearn, a powerful
hitter, landed one on Bartley's
chin and knocked him cold. Siler
counted six and the bell rang,
ending the fight Bartley was on
the floor as cold as a wedge but
Siler stopped down, seized one of
his arms and raised it in token of
victory. The decision raised a
near riot, but when the spectators
started to think it over, they
realized the justice of the deci-
sion. Siler merely had decided
that a knockdown by Ahearn didn't
overcome the big margin that
BARLEY had attained, and that the
fact that he was knocked out right
at the finish had little to do
with it."

some people, but to Nurmi it
borrows competition. Like a
bird dog, he never knows when
he's tired nor just how long he
can keep on keeping on.
With the last three nights of
this week packed tighter than a
Kansas jury, Nurmi hasn't vet
given out his schedule for the
first three evenings Of next.
He will probably pace a few
taxicabs around Central Park
for practice.
Funny thing about Nurn1i and
his capacity for punishment, he
doesn't know anything about
racing in miles. The only style
of running he ever learned was
the metric system, and oh, how
he loves a long row. of meters.
This European habit of
Nurmi's is causing the race Of

have to rearrange the track so
that Nurmi will be sure he is
running meters and not miles.
His Finnish intellect is un-

Boxing Will Suffer.

DoAtH6 V"As S0AA~A
" OXING will certainly suffer
under a commission start
H. ing in as this one has in
California.
At the last election a State
wide desire was manifested for
boxing bouts of ten and twelve
rounds each. The governor was
ordered to appoint a commission
to handle the sport and he did so,
giving it a back-hand slam at
the same time.
Now it is said in California
newspapers that the new commits
sion prefers the old-fashioned
four-round no-decision bouts to the
ten and twelve-round contest legal
lied by the latest regulations. This
would appear another way OF
hamstringing the 1925 law.
Here's a statement from one
of "Uncle Tom" McCarey's closest
friends, taken from a Los Angeles
newspaper:
"The commission may be within
it's rights in refusing a man of
such sterling character as Uncle
Tom a permit, but the host of
friends boxing has in the State
will surely resent it. McCarey in
seventeen years under the old law
was a leading promoter and an
honest man. Why he and man
of Coffroth's character should be

that will have to be answered
