PROTECT TREES FROM
RAVAGES OF RODENTS

Barking dogs. don't bite, but Bit
ing mice and other rodents do bark
and may bark fruit trees to such an
extent that death or severe injury
will result. Orchardists, therefore
should take steps now to prevent
such damage by wrapping trees, says
w. G. Brierley, horticulturist, Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul.
Wire screen of one-fourth inch
mesh, commonly known as hardware
cloth, makes about the best and
cheapest wrapping in the long run,
Mr.. Briefly says. This material may
be obtained in rolls, Is inches wide,
which will be about the right height
for the protectors. Strips two feet
long may be cut and placed around
the bottom of the trees and fastened
by means of loops or wire at top and
bottom. Strips of the above length
will make wrapping approximately
eight inches in diameter and these
may be left on the trees for several
years. Wood veneer may be also
used. Care should be taken to get
the protectors about an inch down
into the ground so that mice cannot
get under.
Wrapping of newspaper, burlap OF
building paper may be used to fur
nish protection, but these have to be
removed in the spring. Mr.. Brierley
however, warns specifically against
the use of tarred paper as both the
tar and the gases which it gives of
are injurious to trees and may dc
more damage even than the rodents.
Where rabbits, particularly jack
rabbits, are very troublesome they
may be trapped, while mice may be
killed by poisoning. For making a
poison bait, many Minnesota or
chardists have had good success with
the use of squash or pumpkin seeds,
chopped or cut into pieces and soak
ed in a solution of strychnine. The
chopped seeds are placed in tin cans
drain tiles or other small containers
underneath the trees where the mice
can get at them. This keeps the
bait away from birds, poultry, OF
farm animals, as we'll as protecting
it from the weather. If squash OF
pumpkin seeds are not available
wheat or other grain kernels may be
used for making the bait.

Hogs are supposed to be so consti-
tuted that they can not economically
digest dry hay or fodder, but alfalfa
is an exception. Hogs will not eat
alfalfa hay readily at first, but after
becoming accustomed to it they relish
a limited quantity, especially hay
made from plants cut at an early
stage. Alfalfa hay added to the
grain ration reduces the cost of gains
and is good for the hogs.

MORGAN BUILDING WAS
THREATENED BY FIRE

The Jensen Furniture Store in the
Welter building at Morgan caught
fire from a defective chimney last
Thursday morning. The building
also was occupied by the Lattman
barber shop and living quarters up
stairs. The fire department came to
the scene and with the use of chem
ical made quick work of smothering
the flames. Mrs. Welters of Marshall,
who owned the building, had no in
3surance, but Mr.. Jensen was insured
and secured settlement for the little
damage that was done.

Schmeling In Bad
With Commission

NEW YORK, July q. U.H)-lhe
New York State Athletic Commis'
sion means business where the al
fairs of Max Schmeling, German
heavyweight, and his retlnue Oh
managers are concerned.
This much was plain today, rot
lowing the action of the state body
in revoking the licenses of Schmei-
ing, and two of his seconds, Joe
Jacobs and Will McCarncy.
The commission is plainly irritat-
ed over the high handed manner OF
the invading boxer, and its action
was taken as an indication that
"hands off, is the safest policy
for any and all who might be inter
ested in the Uhlan.
James Farley, chairman of the
body, stated yesterday that similar
action might be turned on any per-
son or organization attempting to
deal with Schmeling, which appears
to be little less than threat to. re-
woke the license of Madison Square
Garden should that organization at
tempt to proceed with its plans for
the Schmeling-Jack Sharkcy bout.

FIGHTING SPIRIT
OF CUBS MAKES
THEM WINNERS
H0rnsby and cCarthy in
Van When 1t Comes To
Inspiring Players.
BY WILLIAM J. DUNN
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, July 27. W.H =
Fighting spirit as well as batting
strength has kept the Chicago Cubs
in the pennant race this year, al
ways within striking distance or on
top of the heap.
Since returning to their native
pastures on the north side of Chicago
last Tuesday, the Cubs have won
four straight games and only one,
the first, was taken without the me-
cessity of fighting for lost points.
Yesterday the Cubs were seven
rms down at the end of the second
inning with Philadelphia disad-
vantage large enough to discourage
any team. Chicago rallied with
five runs in the third and six more
in the fourth to take a lead they
never surrendered.
Thursday Chicago played and beat
New York, s to 5, an had to come
from behind to turn the trick. On
Wednesday their four run lead was
wiped out when New York staged a
seven run rally in the seventh nning.
The Cubs, however, just kept plug
ging along and picked up the four
1uns necessary for an to victory.
The presence of this fighting
spirit is one of the most encourag-
ing factors in the Cubs pennant
fight this year. In years past the
Chicago Nationals have been wont
to stay in the race until mid-season,
and then curl up and fade from the
picture.
When Chicago acquired Rogers
Hernsby from Boston in the famous
mid-winter deal with the Braves
critics declared that the batting
power The Rajah would bring to
Chicago would be just what was
necessary TO make a pennant win
ner of that team.
Hornsby, later events have show
ed, has been in no small sense res
pogsible for the success of the Cubs
this year, but his worth must be
estimated in more than celd batting
figures.
The great hitter is also an in
spirational team-mate. He has sue.

eight scattered hits and won a shut
cut victory, 9 to 0. Bill Dickey, his
battery mate, clouted two home
runs.
The victory failed to improve New
York s standing in the league race,
however, for the Athletics took q
to | decision from the Chicago
White SoX to maintain their 1OE
game lead.
Cleveland took an early lead and
won from Washington, to ,. Miller
held the losers to seven hits. De
troit checked Boston, to ], Carroll
holding the Red Sox scoreless for
eight innings.
The Chicago Cubs overcame Il
seven run lead to beat the Philadel-
phia Phillies, Is to 10, at Chicago.
Philadelphia scored three runs i'll
the first and four in the second in
ming but Chicago eountcred with
five in the third and six in the
fourth, coasting home, to an easy
victory. Chuck Klein hit his 3lst
homer of the season for the Phils.
Pittsburgh held three run rally
in the ninth to beat Boston, 9 to S.
Grantham hit a homie run for Pitts
burgh in the seven with the bases
filled.

New York lost its fourth straight
game of the western trip at st.

what proved to be the winning run
in the seventh.

MEHLH0RN GAINS
 MUCH PUBLICITY
Being Left Of Ryder Cup Team
 Is Least Of His Worries

New York. Feb. 21 R-Being left off the Ryder cup golf team is one of the least of Wild Bill Mehlhorn's worries. The wild shooting golfer whose non&inclusion on the team of professionals who will go to Eng land in April to compete against the pick of the British pros drew 50 much comment that he has discov- cred he has gained rather than lost by the decision of the selection com mittee.
 Naturally Bill is not entirely pleas ed that be was not included but he has discovered the bright side-that his gain in valuable publicity has more than offset the disappointment. Bill unburdened himself at the golf show yesterday.
 What have I losto" he asked. Merely inclusion on the Ryder cup team. What have l gained? The at- tention of men who never would have heard of me otherwise.
 Suppose I had been selected as my golfng performances warranted"
 he explained. 'It would have meant that I was member of the Ryder cup team, nothing more. l would , have been one of the eight golfers l selected to compete against eight golfers from England. My name
 would have been mentioned along With inc ot her members of the tea m and I would have been lost in the shuffle of Farrells, Sarazens. Ar. mours and other golfers.
 Now since I have not been picked for the team I have had more pub licity. I came to the attention of fol.
 lowers of golf who knew before only my name and very little of that. Coli clubs offered me jobs; my own club Fenimore. took up the cudgel fo, me. The men who wrote golf came l to my defense, treated me royalty and seemed to regard me as a hu'
 man being and not bad fellow" Bill admits that he was disap D. pointed when he first learned of hi: I exclusion from the Ryder cup team i but since he has discovered the
 benefits of it he has decided to take
 that part philosophically and make i the most of the position in the spot
 light it has brought him.
