"Mr. Truman is making a mis-
take" Thomas asserted "A fact

KIRKMAN IS
KIWANIS GUEST

Chief Petty Officer w. A.
Kirkman, honorably discharged
veteran of 81 months service
with the navy in the Pacific
area, spoke before the regular
Wednesday luncheon meeting of
the Hardin KiWaniS club at the
Chuck Wagon cafe.
Chief Kirkman explained
why it was necessary to disguise
the movements of the fleet in
the early days of the Pacific
struggle, and described some of
the methods used to camouflage
ships so that the japanese had
difficulty identifying them, or
even knowing their location or
type.
The speaker also told of some
Of the Japanese atrocities and
said some of the Japs who per-
petrated them had been edu-
Gated in the United States. He
explained that the type of en-
envy made conventional tactics
unWise, and spoke highly of the
ability Of the present fleet Of
ficers, especially Wild Bill
Halsey to innovate methods
which have proven very success
full.
Chief Kirkman gave much
credit to ground troops, and
spoke of the adverse conditions
under which they must fight
He also praised the commanders
and men of the submarine SER
vice and said they had never
received the credit due them
for the havoc they had created
in enemy shipping.
In conclusion, Chief Kirkman
called attention TO the large
area occupied by the Japanese
in China and predicted that our
war in the Pacific would not
be over with the invasion of the
Japanses homeland.

ARGENTINE SEED
NOT GOOD HERE

Large importations of unad-
apted Argentine alfalfa seed
are moving into this country,
according TO the Seed Produc-
ton Programs committee of
the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture. This seed Is being dis
tributed in the north as well
as other sections, and its USE
| may lead to failures or lower
production.
The large movement of Argen-
tine seed, the committee said,
! appears to be due to a shortage
of domestic alfalfa seed and to
the wide dltterential in price
between Argentine seed and
domestic seed.
The seed committee suggested
that the short supply situation
in the United States could be
relieved somewhat if less seed
were retained on the farm by
! growers for sowing after 1945,
Had yield per acre this year
been only average instead OF
the lowest on record, seed pro-
duction would have exceeded
the record 1889 crop by more
than seven million pounds
There is ample acreage in the
United States to produce more
than enough seed in 1945, if
weather condition are about
normal. In the meantime, how
ever, supplies of domestic al
falfa Sc are being augmented
by imports.
Experimental results indicate
that when planted in the Uni
, ted States north of the 38th
degree of latitute, Argentina
alfalfa may diSastrously winter
kill, depending upon the sever
ity of the winter. The expert
ment stations at Fallon, Neb.,
, Manhattan, Kan, and Beltsville,
Md, are located just above the
38th degreet of latitude and
severe winter killing of Argen-
tine alfalfa has occurred at
each of these stations in recent
years.
Furthermore, Argentine alfal-
; ia is very susceptible to the
serious 'bacterial-wilt' disease.
Because of these limitations,
the federal seed act has requir-
ed STAGE 1926 that all importa-
tons of tbs seed be stained 10
per cent orange-red.
1t is of especial Importance
not to plant Argentine seed in
production areas in this country
where it would affect adversely
the hardness and disease-re-
SlStance of domestic seed by
cross pollination and mech
anical mixture. The orange-red
stain makes it easy to identify
this unadapted seed, it was
pOined out.
I'm portat ton and distri-
button within the United States
of Argentina alfalfa seed was
restricted to south of the 38th
degree of latitude during the
past year. On Nov. 13, 1914,
these restrictions we're removed.
The removal of restrictions
does not mean that large guam
titles of Argentine seed are
needed or that there is any
change in the recommendation
regarding its lack of adaptation

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY DOUG STEWART

It's too early to even hazard a
guess as to what effect the new AZ
regulations will have on baseball,
but here's one thing you can bet
on.
Everyone connected with baseball,
from the bat boy up to the club
owner, will follow the lead of the
horsemen, in cooperating with Uncle
Sam one hundred per cent.
If it's necessary to halt baseball
in order to win the war, then club
owners and players alike will will
ingly close up shop and take jobs
in war plants, or anywhere else
where their services are needed to
speed the day of victory.
However, it must not be forgot
ten that baseball fills an entirely
different position than horse racing,
in the field of sports.
While racing is one of the nations
favorite pastimes, baseball stands
out as the national game, beloved
by kids and grownups alike.
You can find plenty of men in
our Armed Forces who have shown
very little, or any, interest in horse
racing, but you would be hard put
to find even a handful of service
men who are not interested in base
ball.
1t must also be remembered that
baseball players have toured the
battlefronts of the world, cheering
up the men in service and have
proved just as popular as the movie
stars.
l sincerely hope that baseball will
be able to continue. but 1 repeat
that, if it is necessary to call halt
until victory is won, then everyone
connected with the grand old game
will comply cheerfully. Baseball
players bawl out umpires, fight over
salaries and argue with each other,
but they can be counted on
to cheerfully make any sacrifice
necessary to speed the day of VIC
tory.

Bowling

With the holiday season over, all
leagues are back in action and judg-
ing from some of the scores 1 have
seen, the layoff seems to have sharp
ened the eye of quite a few.
In the Business Mems League, j.
O'Brien of Tri-State came through
last week with a single game of
1853, tying the seasons record.
Harry Carper of st. Mary's Lea
que turned in a neat 1872 game,
while A. Kriz of the Pangborn
League scattered the pins to the
tune of a 142 game.
In the Sunday School League,
Harold Jones of ST. PauIs y. B.,
came through with a swdll ISL
game, while in the women's divis-
ion, Irene Wingert of the Pansies
proved she was no SLOUGH when she
rolled 119 game to top the divis-
ion for the night.
And talking of women bowlers, l
see where one of the girls in the
Women's Democratic League, V.
Shove, rolled single game of 113
and also copied high three game
for the might with 312.
