FOUR CLEVELAND
GRIDDERS RETURN
Coach Jack Wilce Chuckles
at Glowing Prospects.

Jack Nilce, in his sixteen years az
Ohio Stale football coach, has had his
troubles.
Losing teams are bothersome, and
fans forget the championship elevens
of eight and ten years back.
The triumphs of the past can't salts
fly the rousing appetite of BEAT Mich
igan," "Beat Illinois, in the giant
concrete horseshoe stadium at Co
lumbus.
But as Doctor Wilce previews his
material for the coming season, his
last an Ohio State coach, he can't help
but chuckle in anticipation of the fine
football talent hes getting from Cleve-
land.
Headed by Leo Raskowski, the all
American tackle, the Fifth City bat
TALON contributes more players to the
Buckeye forces than any other city
with the exception of Columbus.
Besides Raskowski, one of the great
est of Ohio State linemen, three other
Clevelanders will return already hav-
ing won their varsity "O"s. They are {:
Howard Kriss, Cyril Surina and Wal
ter Schmidt.
Kriss is the former Shaw high half
back, who will be remembered by
OhiOans for his spectacular run in the
Chicago game last year of 80 yards to
the goal line where he Outleaped two
taller Maroon defenders, caught a
forward pass from Robin Bell and
scored the touchdown which gave
State one of its two Big Ten victories.
Surina is an end, a former East
Tech player, Schmidt, an end who
has been remodeled into guard and
center, played at West Tech, while
Raskowski captained East High in
1924.
Two Cleveland freshmen of last
year who are expected to deliver this
season are Reese Dill, former Lake
wood star, an end, and William Crit
fifth, of Shaw, a 215-pOund guard. Dick
Follett, former East High gridder, is
also expected to bid for an end posi-
ton if he returns to school.
Byron EDy, Harold kruSkamp, How
ard Kriss, Art Huston, George Fouch,
Coffee. Cory, heterogeneous and Nc
Clure are veteran backfeld men re-
turning. The yearlings offer Allen
Holman choice for quarterback.
Raskowski, Young, ALDER, Schmidt.
Schear, Carlin, Cox and Nesser are
varsity linemen returning. Fred Bar
rett is an excellent 215-pound eandi-
date for center from the freshman
ranks, while Griffith, Dill and Re-
boulet are other potentialities.
Ohio State plays only two big Ten
games at home this year, meeting
Michigan and Iowa, but plays Prince
ton in Columbus for the first time.
Three Conference teams to be played
on the road are Illinois, Northwestern
and Indiana.

Boss Was Reading

While cleaning out an old desk in
the office the secretary of a local bust
ness man ran across several Nick
Carter books. Puzzled as to where
they came from, she asked the boss
He gave a startled look as she uttered
the question, and hastily dismissed 1t

and nothing more was said
That night the secretary left the of
fee and had almost reached home
when she discovered that her purse
was missing. Hurriedly she retraced
her steps back to the office and to her
surprise found the door unlocked. She
entered quietly and looked around
There, with his feet cooked up on a
desk and putting away at cigar, was
the boss, eagerly devouring one of the
books she had been ordered to throw
away.-Springfield Union.

Quickly Cooling Cream
After Separating Helps

Iowa cooperative creameries are
generally paying q higher price this
year than last in comparison to the
price Of butter. In reviewing this
situation c. Bechtelheimer, secretary
the Cooperative Creamery associa-
ton, gives the credit to paying added
attention - quality.
When quality is the goal, there Is
nothing that is so important as quick
ly cooling the cream after separating
and before mixing it with older cream.
The next most important factor is
keeping all of the cream in a clean,
cool place until it is ready to be de-
livered to the market.
cooling tank connected between
the pump and the water tank, or con-
nected with a spring, is the best meth
cd of cooling cream and holding the
same until it Is time to market. Tanks
of this kind should be small so that
the water will be changed often.
They can be cheaply constructed and
are worth the price.

Minnesota Needs Back
to Fill Out Good Team

Last years squad leaves us only
a couple of first string ends, first
string tackle and first-string guard"
declares DR.. G. w. Spears, Minnesota
coach. 1--WE have to find right tackle,
center and left guard. If we develop
these men and find couple of ball
carriers TO add to our backfield we will
have fighting chance in our six con-
ference games. Otherwise we will be
lucky to break even.
Minnesota needs big, fast backs
NOR than anything else .'on't know
where they are coming from. Some
of the candidates may develop into
polished players, but with those saw
in spring practice it's about a toss
up. They may come through and they
may not. We are starting the season
with Mr.. If in five positions. and we
may have TO go right through with the
same guy la the same position"

Agricultural Hints
< K z < < < < Z


Conditions are favorable for profits
in market hogs this fall and winter.
1t pays to feed turkeys well from
the time of first feeding until they
are marketed.
The practice of hogging off small
fields of corn Is considered a good one
in most sections.
Some one at Clemson college has
well said that the farmer who makes
hay while the sun shines, also makes
repairs while the rain falls.
An unladen bee can fly forty miles
an hour, while one laden with honey
cannot go farther than twelve miles
in the same time.
1t never pays to produce alfalfa seed
on fields badly infected with sweet
clover. The practice should be to cut
infested fields until No sweet clover is
left.

Life. Touching some things the world
is wiser.
For instance, we are beginning to
understand that training for the race
with Life actually does begin with the
seyeral-times-g reat-grandparen of the
entrant
When our understanding of this
truth reaches the point where we can
remember our forefathers without for
getting our grandchildren we will
have arrived somewhere in what our
doctors of esthetics call culture.
What our doctors of medicine mean
when they speak of culture is some
times something else-and sometimes
not so different.
You know the old saying: People
who are content to rest their claims
to recognition upon their ancestors are
like potatoes: the best part of them
is underground"
Oh, yes, certainly, | agree that it is
good to know the name of the ship
that brought our great-great-great
ones over. am merely trying to say
if we do not keep sharp lookout for
ward our descendants will be wonder
ing what we came over in, where we
came from. and why.
So far as | am informed Life moves
in one direction only: straight ahead.
There seems to be no reverse gear, no
brakes and no way of stopping. Ev-
erything must move forward on the
road which Life travels, or drop out
human things not excepted.
Those silly folk who persist in wear
ing their headlights where their tail
lights ought to be. always make trou-
BILE for themselves and others.
No. you simply cannot make better
time by wearing your tail-light In
front and your headlights behind.
But there are some things about
which the world knows no more today
than it did when it lived in cave,
dressed in skins and ate its meat raw.
Yes. and between you and me. these
things of which the world can never
know more than 1t has always known
IRE the only things which are worth
Lother.ng about.

Get Sweet Glover Seed
From Roadside Plants

There is so much sweet clover grow.
ing on the roadsides and waste places
all over the country that many farm
ers can get a little seed to try without
very much expense by taking the
binder and binding Up few bundles
and then putting them through the
thresher after the oats have gone
through. Some favored few can grow
sweet clover without applying lime
and this is an easy way to find out.
For many purposes, his unscarified
and unhulled seed is more suitable for
farm use than scarified and hulled
seed. Any farmer who wants to save
labor and get his sweet clover off to
a good start in the spring in his wheat
or rye can follow this practice.

Prevent Smut by
Dust Treatment
Method Is Much More Con-
venient Than Use of
Any Liquid.

Ordinary sinking smut of wheat,
or bunt as ii is called in the West,
does not destroy the entire head. as
does loose smut, but 1t attacks the in
terror of the seed and for this rea-
son is often overlooked. The affected
kernels are shorter, more plump, and
darker than the healthy kernels. When
such kernels are crushed they are
found to contain mass of black pow
der-the spores of the fungus that
causes the smut. Wheat that is bad
~ infected has a distinct fetid odor
that is noticeable when it is thrested,
according to report from the state
college of agriculture at Ithaca.
Common Treatment.
The treatment commonly used in the
past for the control of this smut con-
sisted in immersing the cleaned grain
in a solution made by diIuting one
pint of commercial formaldehyde in
40 gallons of water. The immersion
continues not more than few MIN
utes, during which time the grain
should be stirred and the light and
smutted kernels, which float to the
top, should be skinned off. The grain
is then removed from the solution
and should be placed in pile and
covered with sacks or blankets for
two hours, after which time it must
be spread out to dry.
This method should be used If the
grain is badly smutted, but where the
smut is not bad, it may be controlled
by busting the seed with powdered
copper carbonate.
Dust More Convenient.
The dust method is more convenient
than the liquid method, and the grain
is not injured by this treatment re-
CARELESS of when it is done. The
grain is mixed with the dust so that
every kernel is coated, using two
ounces of the dust to each bushel of
grain.
The dust should test at least 80 per
cent metallic copper and should be
fine enough so that 80 per cent of it
will pass through, 200 mesh sieve.
The mixing may be done with a
shovel on a smooth floor; or mix
ing machine, such as a concrete mixer
or a barrel churn with battle boards
in it, will do the job.

Environment and Character

Environment is not the last word
in human life; it does not spell our
fate. Character is wrought to finest
quality in spite of untoward condi-
lions, and often is majestic in its
scorn of circumstance. Were 1t other
wise, the galaxy of genius would not
shine so brightly In the armament of
life. The best environment on record,
the Garden Of Eden, was not ESQ the

Big Variation in Types
of Soils Called Alkali

There is so much variation in the
types of soil called alkali that one is
never sure as to just what to do for
them until some trials have been
made. The most probable treatment
to give them is to apply potash, or
horse manure because of the large
amount of potash it carries.
Probably about 10 tons of horse
manure per acre, or about 200 pounds
of potash salt per acre, applied in the
spring, would make the corn grow on
these so-called alkali places as well as
the trial at least.
