The shot is made most of the time with backhand return, and generally is used to return a high bounding ball from the opponents paddle.
 The wrist is snapped so that the paddle meets the ball full when parallel with the net. Tn this way littlespin is put on the sphere--but it doesn't need any, for it's speed is generally effective enough.

he would return soon to Washington
to continue the negotiations. 1t will be
the Russian envoy's first trip home
since his appointment here. Conse-
quently, he will discuss several other
questions with foreign Office officials.
Troyanovsky's visit, it was said. is

5000 MILLION
IN RELIEF SEEN
WITHIN YEAR
By WILLIAM S. NEAL
International News Service

The bill prepared by the Ad-
ministration to carry out PreSl-
dent Roosevelt'S emergency relief
program would provide potential
fund of 5000 million dollars for
expenditures next year, Represen-
tative John Taber (R0 OF New
York said today.
1t was drafted by the Budget
Bureau after the President asked
Congress to provide 1922 million
for relief and public works pur'
poses, and was never made public.
The huge total, Mr.. Taber ex-
planned, was the result of add
tional authorizations contained In
the measure.
These included the 1000 million
dollars in debentures which the
RFC may issue, about $500 mil
lions in allocated but unSpent
public works funds, and between
400 millions and 500 millions OF
economy program savings which
were impounded by law.
This, it was said, is in addition
to the $40 millions for public
works and relief 285 millions fol
the CCC, and smaller appropria'
tionS asked by the President.

Legume Hay Desirable

Legume hay is very desirable feed
for brood sows, since it is good filler
and supplies vitamins and a consider
able amount Of mineral matter. Such
ration is inexpensive and very well
adapted for the brood sow during the
period of pregnacy. A week or so
after narrowing, more grain should, Of
course, be fed. In fact, during the
nursing period, the sows should be CIV
en- all the grain they will consume, and
until the pigs have been weaned, the
grain ration should contain about s
per cent of the trinity mixture. Hay
should not be fed at that time, be-
cause of its bulk. Always give the
sows free access to salt, and supply
an abundance of water. See that they
exercise by letting them run in pas
ture or stalk field during good wealth
er. Provide clean, dry bed for them
at night.-Wallaces Farmer.

New Strains of Alfalfa
Culture Being Developed

Three strains of alfalfa nodule bac-
terra, capable of fixing more nitrogen
and producing a somewhat greener
color in the leaves of the alfalfa plant,
have been added to the stock from
which the Wisconsin college of agricul-
ture is preparing it's alfalfa seed Gull
lures
These strains, recorded in the lab
oratory as pedigree numbers 1911, 100,
and 113, were carefully tested in
greenhouse trials last winter when
they proved to fix more nitrogen and
to stimulate the production Of higher
yields Of hay than most other strains
tested.
incubation tests in these green
houses show that while most root no.
dule cultures found in the soil Of fields
which have grown legumes are helpful
to the plant, some are less beneficial
or even actually harmful. Before any
strain of inoculating bacteria is used
for the preparation of culture in the
laboratories of the university agricul-
tural college, it must first have proved
to be beneficial as shown by green
house and field tests.

Rotation Plan to
Foil Chinch Bugs
Locate Legume Crops So as
to Isolate Small Grain,
Corn and Grass.
BY A. L. Lang. Asst. Chief Of Soil Expert
ment Fields University Of Illinois.
WHIT gervica

BY A. L. Lang. Asst Chief Of Soil Expert
ment Fields, University Of Illinois.
WNU Service
Threatened with the heaviest chinch
bug infestation ever recorded in the
history of the state, Illinois farmers
should consider revising their rotations
as means of partially protecting
their 1884 corn crop.
By this is meant the location of le-
gume crops in the rotation so as to
isolate the small grain, corn and grass
fields where the chinch bugs are prone
to breed and feed. It has been proved
that legumes are distasteful to this
insect pest, and separating the bugs
''favorite" crops with legumes Is sug-
gested as one of several control meas
ures. Furthermore, the addition Of
one or more legumes will improve the
fertility Of the land on which they are
grown.
A five-year rotation supplying this
dual purpose may consist of corn, oats,
clover, corn and soybeans. In this
case, not only is 60 per cent Of the
farm in legumes, but 80, per cent Is
in cash crops. One crop of corn Is
completely set off between two le-
gumes, which in many cases will pre-
vent serious damage from chinch bugs.
The fact that the oats field will have a
spring seeding of clover may deter
rapid multiplication of the insects in
this crop, If the clover gets a strong,
early start.
When wheat is grown with maxi
mum of corn, rotation Of corn, corn,
beans, wheat and clover can be
planned. An important feature of this
combination is that the small grain
crop, which is always the early breed
ing ground of the chinch bug, is iso-
lated from the corn crops by legume
on either side. With a good, growthy
spring seeding Of clover in the wheat,
this crop is not susceptible to the bugs.
Where a four-year rotation of corn,
oats, wheat and clover is followed, a
protective revision would be to substi-
tute soybeans for the oats. This
would carry the Isolation advantages
of the wheat rotation above and, with
good stand of clover in the wheat,
would keep IS per cent, of the land in
legumes throughout the growing sea-
son.

Lesssening the Distress in
Hay Fever

VOU are hay fever victim.
You have tried the pollen ex-
tracts and find yourself one of the
number not helped by them.
You have heard about the air cham
bers or air rooms where victims may
spend number Of hours day free
from the irritation of the pollen that
Is in the air, but there is none of these
chambers in your vicinity or you are
unable to afford the time and money
even If there were.
What can you do to lessen the irrfta-
ton from hay fever?
There is no question but that some
of the preparations sold by your drug
gist will give you some relief. Most
of them contain adrenalin, and some
have some pain killing preparations
mixed with the adrenalin.
Is there anything else you can do to
help carry you through this trying time
until the frost brings relief?
Hay fever sufferers have found that
Il they keep themselves in good con-
dition physically, paying strict atten-
ton to their diet and to intestinal
movement, they get great measure
of relief from the hay fever symptoms.
Diet is most important. 1t has been
found that an acid diet aggravates the
symptoms in great many cases, so
that while acid foods must be eaten
they should be eaten in smaller guam
titles during the hay fever season.
This means that cereals, meat, eggs,
fish, coffee and tea must be cut down
butter and sugar kept at their usual
amounts; and vegetables, fruits and
milk increased.
The bowels must be kept active by
the use of fruits and rough or coarse
vegetables. In some cases very small
doses of epson salts-a half tea
spoonful-every morning has been
found helpful.
No one ever dies of hay fever but
1t is a very miserable ailment during
the weeks it exists, and until cure
is found for each case, following the
above suggestions may be. of some
help.

That Body
Of Yours
By
JAMES W. BARTON, M. d.
Natural Defenses of the Body

Natural DefenSeS OF the BODY
A LTHOUGH man has wonderful
A brain, there are a number OF
things done by the body to protect
him that are not directed by mans
will.
Something irritates the nose and
sneeze removes it. Something irri-
tates the throat or bronchial tubes
and a cough sends it up and out of
the body.
Some food or other substance, placed
In the mouth, is irritant (acid) or
likely to interfere with free move
ments of the parts and Immediately
there is great flow of saliva or the
mouth digestive juice. This dilutes
the substance so as to be less irri-
tant, or if it disturbs movements it
is washed away.
If an offending substance gets down
into the stomach, it is usually quickly
thrown upward and outward by the
walls of the stomach.
Similarly with the eye. Although
It is set in a bony socket, and has a
quick acting curtain (the eyelid) to
shield it from harm, little substances
do get into the eye. When this hap
pens the tears flow abundantly to
wash the substance out.
However, as DR.. Walter B. Cannon,
Harvard, points out, there are other
processes going on in the body which,
while they do not act as quickly as
sneezing, coughing, vomiting, and the
flow of tears, are protecting you all
the time from various troubles.
Something rough rubs or presses
the skin and a callous is formed which
serves both as a cushion and as a
shield.
If the skin is broken, little blood
vessels appear in the clot which fills
the gap, and the surrounding skin
reaches out and fills the gap, with
only a whitish scar remaining.
In a person living at or about sea
level the number of red corpuscles is
about 100000 to the cubic mill
meter, whereas If they go to live in
high mountains, $4,000 feet, the num-
Der slowly increases to 100000, thus
providing more oxygen which is now
needed.
If the need continues, the blood
forming organs in the marrow of the
long bones become more active and
the blood is thus enriched until the in
divfdual comes down to the lower al
titude again.
Then there are the white corpuscles
of the blood which attack and kill
harmful organisms that enter the
body.
The above are just few of the nat
ural defenses of the body.
Surely we are fearfully and won
derfully made.

Feeding SmuttY Corn

Silage which is made from smutty
corn is harmless to cattle, according
to animal husbandry authorities at
South Dakota state college. During
the course of an experiment at this
station, cows were fed large amounts
of smutted silage. These cows gained
265 pounds during the feeding period
of &c days, and all were in a thrifty
condition. In general appearance the
cows were more attractive at the close
of the trial than at the beginning.
