race he has taken part in this year has resulted in close finish-on most occasions, too close for com- fort.
 Jockey Must Labor
 Scouts task of bringing Granville down under the wire first has not been easy. The horse has won only under the hardest sort of riding on the jockeys part. The decisions the Granville Stout combination drop ped this season might possibly have been averted had the jockey taken to the whip earlier or continued to force his mount to the utmost every inch of the last furious drive down the stretch. There were occasions when Stout might have started his bid sooner but that's merely second guessing. The fact is that Granville has proven he can run if he wants to. Scouts job is to make him want to at all times.
 Stout should know the horse bet ter than anyone else. Certainly he has had ample opportunity to get acquainted with Granville And under Stout Granville has not run a really bad race all season.
 The wholesale fouling on the part of the jockeys at Saratoga, the ex- hibition in the running of the Travers being a fair sample, calls for severe disciplining by the stew ards. Several jockeys, consciously or unconsciously, have hindered other mounts with the free use of their whips. The riding in general has been altogether too rough to do the game any good.
 Turfmen agree that it is about time the ruling body took steps to stop these unfair tactics. The evil is certain to grow until it is cut down with few stiff sus- pensions.

SPORT SLANTS

Jockey Jimmy Stout passed up a flock of tempting offers last win ter to remain with Sunny Jim Fitz- simmons. It proved to be a wise decision, for it gave Stout the chance to ride William Woodwards Granville in all his big engage ments. And since the son of Gall lant Fox is well on the way to clinch 3-year-old honors of the current season, Stout is destined to earn an important place in turf dom's hall of fame.
 Things did not break any too well for the Granville Stout com bination early in the season. They did all right in a cheap overnight race at Jamaica which served as Granville's 3-year-old debut, but ran into trouble in the Wood Mem orial when Teufel, with Eddie Litz enberger up, beat them by nose. In the Kentucky Derby Stout was tossed when Granville stumbled shortly after the barrier went up. Stout allowed Ira Hanford to pick his mount off with Bold Venture right under the wire in the Freak ness. Firethorn won a nose de- cision over Granville in the Sub urban Handicap.
 Granville found himself in the Belmont when he caught MT. Bones at the last 16th pole and beat him by nose in another close decision. Then came the Arlington classic, just about the only race which Granville won by a comfortable margin Here he held 2-length margin over Mir Bones. In the Kenner Stakes, Granville went back to his old ways and came danger ously close to being beaten by Memory Book.
 Told Elm in Travers
 In the Travers Stakes Granville gained nose decision over War ren Wright's Sun Teddy after hay ing been fouled several times en route. Granville ran a great race to win the Travers. He just about convinced everyone that he was the best horse of his age, performing like real champion where horse with less courage would have quit. Aside from the fouling which hind cred Grahville's progress there was the muddy condition of the racing strip to contend with.
 Granville was never considered a good mudder but in the Travers the game son of Gallant Fox show ed that he could run under any conditions. The track at Saratoga was in just about the same shape as it was on the memorable oc- casion few years back when Gall lant Fox lost a decision to 100- to-1 shot, Jim Dandy, in the Trav- CTS.
 Granville, like Gallant Fox and most of his get, is notorious loafer when in front. He will run his head off to catch the other horses in the field bus once up with them he is satisfied to ease up and stay with the leaders That is the main reason why almost every

Questions Pertaining To
Agriculture and Home
Problems Confronting Farmers and
Homemakers Answered BY
University Farm

I have q COW which fails to breed.
Is there any special feed, tonic or
| medicine which I can give her TO
make possible fertility?
There is no special feed, tonic or
medicine that will induce fertility
in any animal. Sterility Is the result
| of various causes, and without a
careful examination Of the animal
it Is impossible to state why the
COW will not breed. Only through
the skill OF, competent veterinar-
ian can you obtain definite infor-
nation as to the cause Of the
trouble with your COVE. p.
Fitch, Division of Veterinary Med
icine.
I am short on grain and wish to
know of some concentrates, reason
ably priced, with which I may sup
plement my feeds. What do you re-
| commend?
On many Minnesota farms con-
centrates will be needed to supple
ment a shortage of grain If animals
| are to be profitably fed. Cane mo-
lasses, beet molasses, beet pulp,
bran and middlings are deserving
of consideration for this purpose at
present because of a rather liberal
supply of these feeds with a conse-
quent advantage to the consumer
in purchasing. One pound of each
of these feeds can be considered as
having very nearly the same feed
ing value as a pound of an average
farm grown grain mixture.-W H.
Peters, chief Division Of Animal
Husbandry.
What Is the best way to find true
north and south for placing line
fence?
If you are not trained survey
or and do not know how to operate
transit, you will be unable to find
true north and south without the
aid of surveyor and the instru-
ment. If all you really want Is ap-
proximately true north and south,
cut a long, straight slender pole or
strip of board, about 16 to 20 feet
long and set it up perfectly plum.
Then see that your watch has ex-
act standard time, and on a clear

Rough Fish Removal
Contracts Approved

Applications of commercial fish
ermen for winter rough fish re-
moval were approved last week by
the State Conservation Commission
and operations will begin as soon
as ice begins to form in Minnesota
lakes.
Rough fish will be removed
principally from lakes in the south
ern zone.
Commercial fishermen must post
a bond of not less than $1,000,
which must be approved by the de-
partment of administration and
finance and by the attorney-gen-
eral.
Fishermen are required under
terms of their contracts to remove
all rough fish and turtles. Rough
fish that are unmarketable because
of their small size may not be re-
turned to the water but must be
buried or disposed of as hog feed.
Game fish. may not be taken at
any time. However, in the case of
certain shallow lakes game fish are
transferred to deeper waters.
OuIihS luc past tlIcc years, Tic
state has received an average of &c
per cent of total proceeds of COM
mercial fishing. According to
George Weaver, superintendent of
fisheries, the states percentage of
earnings is increasing steadily.
All seins used in commercial fish
ing must be approved by Mr..
Weaver in order to insure a maxi
mum take of rough fish.
An average Of approximately g.
100000 pounds of carp, buffalo, and
other rough fish are removed from
Minnesota lakes each winter. About
$4,000 pounds of small, unmarked
able rough fish are turned over to
various charitable agencies.
Although not widely used as food
in Minnesota, carp is very much in
demand in the eastern part Of the
country. Most of the rough fish
taken in Minnesota are shipped
out Of the state.

CHRISTMAS
CUSTOMS

Authors of Britannica" des-
cribe mistletoe as a parasitic
shrub appearing as a bush," but
they were ever wont to be sto-
ically inclined toward sentiment.
Christmas draws near and the
mistletoe has figured in mans
observance Of this day since
Medieval history. From German
and Morse mythology the Gus
tom of hanging the mistletoe
was carried to England, and
from the Mother Country we
Americans have revived the
custom.
The green little sprig was said
in German and Morse mythology
to bring happiness and safety to
those whose home it graced so
long as it did not touch the
floor. That is the reason we
hang the mistletoe." Morse
mythology explains that Balder,
the god of love, was awakened
with dire dreams for his life.
His mother, fearful, sought pro-
lection from every living thing
on the earth with the exception
of one-the lowly mistletoe.
Loki, a jealous god, learned Of
this and killed Balder with
shaft from the mistletoe. It has
signified love ever since. In
England it signified friendli-
ness and good will; and when
two enemies met at Yuletide I'M
der the mistletoe, they were
made friends. That's the reason
you kiss your "gal' under the
mistletoe-if you can find any.

Whether you are an experienced
skier or skater a beginner or q
person who likes to go out on a
winter day or evening just to
watch the others tumble in the
snow, your fun depends first of all
upon your comfort. Until this year
designers of winter outdoor toys
placed so much Importance upon
fashion that the warmth and &C
tivity requirements Of the garments
were almost forgotten. This seas
on, however, the designer who has
not wind and waterproof materi-
ais, who has not taken the easy
action points of the garment into
consideration finds that women
who know their fashion news will
have none of the garment.
Things to remember when buy
ing skit suits; Navy and black are
the two most important colors.
Wear them with bright colored or
white accessories. Be sure the ma
terial chosen is wind and water
proof. Many gaberdine snow-suits
are being selected by those who
know. Plaid Innings are ultra
smart. Longer juackets are COM
ing back. Hooded parkas with
lunch box pockets are the rage.
Trousers are built high around the
waist and fit snugly through the
hips. Plus fours are coming into
ski fashion.
Paris dictates plaid flannel or
wool tailored skirts to wear with
ski suits. Plain colored but bright
woolens also are good. Knit baby
