By vEDDER G ARD

EVE hate to mention the fact
IWI because It may call atten-
ton to something nobody is
thinking about yet. Still, the
matter of which we speak is better
settled at once than to wait I'M
til few days before the bout is
to be held. There, it's out.
What we are trying to say is
that before Floyd Fitzsimmons
up at Michigan City goes very
far with the Dempsey-Greb
plans he had better find out
what the Governor of Indiana
thinks about it.
Dempsey once before tried to
fight in Hoosierdom when Gov
ernor McCray was at the head of
things. You all know what hap
pened. It is likely to happen
again
There is no doubt but that a
Dempsey-Greb setto would pack
'em in. 1t would be a great bat
tie. The drawback to the whole
affair is a State law against prize
fighting.
1t seems as though heavy
weight champs are not con-
sidered boxers. They are fighters.
Which may come pretty close to
the truth at times.
Greb appeared in an Indianapo-
lis ring. But if he is matched to
meet Dempsey it will be differ
ent affair. Just where the dell
cate distinction is made is rather
@icult to understand. The minds
. public officials are unfathom-
able in some instances, not be-
cause of the depth, but because
of the cross currents.
We hope that the promoters
plans are not allowed to go on
until a few days before the bat
tie and then official taboo sud
denly spring from clear air.
If the bout is thought to be
within the law let the fact be
known. If it is to be frowned
upon also let that De knoWH'
WO of the worst clubs IN
the major leagues knocked
the two leaders out of their
top berths on Thursday. The
Braves broke even with the Giants
in a double bill, thus putting the
Pirates back on top. Pittsburgh
defeated ST Louis.
The much maligned Yankees
downed Washington, while Phila-
delphia was nosing out a victory
over the Boston Red Sox. All of
which means it is necessary to
bring out the diamond bromide
once again-You never can tell in
baseball.

loum, the treatment, though just rs
simple, is quite different. Printed limo
leum is made of the same materials as
inlaid linoleum-cork, oxidized linseed
oil and burlap. The designs. how
ever, are printed on the surface in
heavy oil paints. The linseed oil in
these paints and the linseed oil in the
linoleum base form an excellent bond.
Nevertheless. the designs. if left UNI
protected, will not wear as long as IN
laid iinoleum.
So we varnish or shellac printed
linoleum. Vanishing, however, is far
better than shcllacking, and cheaper,
too, when wear is considered. Care
must be exercised in selecting the var
nish. Use only n good, clear grade OF
waterproof varnish, Us the cheaper
varnishes are likely to scratch easily
and turn white. The varnish should
be applied evenly and allowed to dry
for a day at least before the floor is
used. Put two coats on new linoleum.
Afterwards the varnish need be To-
newed but once or twice year. ac-
cording to the wear on the floor.
ANY linoleum maker will be glad 10
furnish you with n list Of varnishes
and wakes best suited for your limo
leum floors.

PLAN FRUIT TREE PARK
In CENTER OF GARDEN CITY

CRYSTAL CITY, Tex, Nov. %.
An important contract was entered
into at Crystal City, during the past
few days, by r. II. Posey, of La Feria
and the Crystal City Chamber of Com
merce, when arrangements were conf
pleted for Mr.. Posey, who conducts
nursery in the Rio Grande valley
to boautify a plot of ground in Crys-
tai City with citrus fruits, date palms
and other semi-tropical plants.
The plot of ground chosen for the
location of the park is centrally 10
Gated, in the main part of town and
is on either side of the S. A. U & G.
railroad.
The trees will be shipped in Febru-
airy and will be planted under the
supervision of Mr.. Posey who will
have charge of them for a year.
Spurred by the action taken by the
Chamber of Commerce many other
citizens are taking an interest in the
growing of citrus fruits in commercial
quantities and this coming spring will
find q number of farmers planting
from one to five acres, while nearly
every home owner in Crystal City has
purchased n few trees, the most fav-
ored being oranges, lemons and grape
fruits.
Citrus fruits have been grown on n
small scale, for ornamental purposes

New Plant Will Help
Reduce Construction
Costs Here.

Mining gravel and sand from its pit
at rate of $50 yards q day, the
North Loop Gravel Company's supply
will last for 25 to 80 years, states j.
II. Rodgers, of the company. The COM
pany has just completed new sand
and gravel crushing and washing plant
over a 17-acre deposit of this forma-
ton, eight miles from San Antonio on
the North Loop road.
The formation is from IS to % feet
thick over the entire 17-acre tract. Be-
low this gravel are several hundred
feet of solid rock. which can be blast
ed and crushed into gravel and sand
in future years. The gravel is free
of clay and other undesirable forma-
tions.
The Federal Export and Supply
Company, 80 Russell building, have
been made exclusive sales agents for
the gravel and sand.
A barbecue will be held at the for
NAL opening of the plant at an early
date.
The plant is under the supervision
of E. V. Biles. Mr.. Rodgers and r..
L. Stewart, also connected with the
company, are local concrete con-
tractors.
Completion of this plant means an
other source Of supply to material
men and contractors of San Antonio.
1t facilitates further time and money
saving in building costs because its To-
cation eliminates the necessity of long
hauls and rail shipments.

in yards and gardens, for several
years.
Action has been further stimulated
by the fact that two citrus fruit ex-
perts have been in the community re-
Gently. One of these men is from
Orange County, California and the
other from the Rio Grande Valley of
Texas. After a rigid test Of both
climate and soil and a thorough in.
spection of the fruits now ripening,
they do not hesitate to state that
the Crystal City country has all of
the qualifications required for the
growing of citrus fruits, and to en-.
courage the planting of trees in COM
mercial quantities.
This beginning of growing Of citrus
fruits is believed to be one Of the
most important movements ever start
ed in this community and is looked
upon rs the beginning of another
great industry for this part Of the
Winter Garden District.

PROPER CARE WILL MAKE
FLOORS LAST GENERATIONS

Il think I'll shellac my linoleum
floor this week. remarks one woman.
"Shellac?" queries a second house
wife. "They say waxing is all that
linoleum floors ever need" Still a
third voices the opinion that, REALLY,
I'm sure you'll find varnish better
than either shellac or wax. 1t pro-
tects the pattern, you know"
And so it goes-each opinion diff
ferent, and none of them wholly cor
rect. Yet the proper care of modern
linoleum floors is simple. Further
more, if given this simple care q
linoleum floor should last for genera
tons without showing any signs of
its age.
In the first place, the treatment
of your linoleum floors depends upon
the kind of linoleum you have in
your home. If it is inlaid linoleum,
it should never be vanished or
shellacked. The colors and designs of
inlaid linoleum 90 clear through to
the burlap back. The pattern, there
fore, can't be scuffed off and needs
no heavy protective covering such as
varnish. 1t does, however, require
an occasional waxing, say once or
twice a year, to keep the floor surface
lustrous and bright and to make clean
ing easier.
This wax should be applied sparing-
ly and should be rubbed in well. a
paste wax, which you can rub in with
a heavy cloth or with a weighted brush
which can be bought at hardware and
furniture stores. will give your floor
a soft, non-slippery sheen. Liquid
wax, used on a piece ofscheese cloth, is
ideal for occasionally touching up the
"walked-on" places, spaces in front of
the doorways and closets.
