To keep the stomach in good order the best of hay and oats should be used, and a double handful of dry bran should be mixed with each feed of oats. It is best to feed a little less in hot weather than the horse has been accustomed to. Don't overwork. It is the overworked horse that usually gets sun struck. He is not able to do as much in hot as in mild or cold weather, and consequently should not be loaded as heavily, nor driven as fast noi as far. Don't neglect to water often. Horses should be watered every hour or so on a hot day. When a horse begins to pant and show signs of weari ness ho should be allowed to stop in the shade and rest for half an hour, See that the horse is provided with some protection for his head. A driver should no more think of lonving the barn on a hot day without a sponge than he would without a blanket in winter. When stopping to water the horses it takes but a moment to wipe off their faces and heads with the moist sponge, and it refreshes the animals wonderfully. Never let pass an opportunity to leave your horses standing in the shade. Hake your stops periods of rest to your coworker. If your horse ia greatly overheated he should have some light covering thrown over him when left in the shade to prevent congestion. In this hot weather bo careful as never before of letting the wheels get into a rut If in spite of all precautions this happens, jump down and put your shoulder to the wheel. Others will fall in line to assist you and three or four can easily life a wheel out of a place from which it is practically impossible for a horse to pull it. Do not neglect the horse's feet in summer. Many seem to think that as there are no slippery pavements the way is easy. The heat generated in the shoe by constant friction with the heated pavement is trans mitted through the protecting horn of the hoof to the sensitive inner parts and causes creat distress. Take advantage of every opportunity to let the shoes cool off. Never take "steaming" horse3 to the barn. Ict them cool off the latter part of the way in, going very slowly. They should be 6ponged off, watered and rested before being fed. DECOY DUCK IS COLLAPSIBLE SCIENTIFIC NOTES. Violet 'tinted potatoes are Bald to stand highest In nutritive value.

LONE SUBMARINE RESCUE SHIP Germany, Alone of All Nations, Pos sesses Vessel Capable of Dealing With Accidents. The French navy's lack of adequate means to rescue the submerged Plu viose, which was run down recently In the English channel by the Calais Dover mall steamer, calls attention to the fact that Germany alone of all nations possesses a vessel capable of dealing with such accidents. Although Germany has only eight completed un derwater boats, compared with Great Pranks of Some of Our Frisky Students By ADOLPH G. VOGELER Certainly no thoughtful person in his right mind, most assuredly no well-bred student or fond graduate of our glorious American institutions of learning, will for one moment think of denying the civili zing, elevating, spiritualizing influence of the liazings, rushes and initiations of some of our frisky students. No callous, ignorant, prejudiced out side barbarian can ever learn to appreciate the wonderful, far-reaching results flowing from this reformatory work of our earnest student bodies exercised upon each other, supported by equally earnest faculties in their laudable efforts to raise the standard of citizenship. Thev improve morals, develop pontic manners, teach discipline, fos- ter scholarship and learning, promote brotherhood, inclucate self-respect and respect for the rights of others and supreme respect for the law. insure peace, raise the social standard, engender friendship oh, well, what's the use? No mortal mind can ever hope to formulate all the grand things veiling out of these excesses indulged in by our American students in their ebullient enthusiasm and connived at, condoned and fostered by wickedly weak, cowardly or self-blinded authorities in their mad desire to outrival in student numbers. This state of things educates a set of selfish individuals who in sub sequent years in business, in politics and in daily life may utilize their sharpened wits to ride roughshod over everything and everybody in their unrestrained lust for money, power and pleasure. Device Intended to Start Beginner on Piano In Right Way Corrects 1 Bad Habit. One of the most serious things that the piano teacher has to contend with In her pupils, especially the very young ones, Is the tendency to hold the hands at a point on a level with the keyboard or a little below It. It Is essential for good playing that this abould be corrected, and the sooner the better, for If this slovenly habit gets the hold of one, it Is very difficult to change.

Britain's 63, France's 56, Russia's 30 and 18 of the United States, Teutonic thoroughness has already provided a rescue ship, illustrated in the accom panying sketch plan. She Is named the Vulcan and was launched at Kiel In 1907. The vessel, which has a length of 230 feet, con sists of two separate hulls, marked AA and BB In the sketch. These are fitted with engines which give a speed of 12 knots. GG are the funnels. At either end the separate hulls are connected by a deck, marked D, so that viewed from forward or aft the ship presents the structure of a tun nel. A large space, F, sufficient to allow the largest German submarine yet de signed to pass through, Is left clear between the two hulls, and over this are erected two steel girder bridges, with two others connecting them. They are marked EE. These bridges are fitted with a pow erful electric crane, capable of lift ing a weight of 600 tons, and when a submarine has thus been raised It can be rested upon movable girders which can be placed beneath It The ship Itself is more or less a floating workshop. With the excep tion of the men directly concerned In the navigation of the ship all on board are skilled engineers and a number of divers are carried, so that operations can be commenced as soon as the vessel arrives on the scene of an accident.

This expression Is often heard, out on the farm, and it seems to apply to baseball. Look at the case of "Bill" Burns. He was a twlrler on Comls- key's team In Chicago and as such seemd to have no Interest In the game He was known to possess the goods, but he seldom delivered them. Burns is of a family that has money and he doesn't play baseball because he has to earn a living. It was thought, "how ever, that he liked the game. Last year In Washington Burns had some trouble with the management of the Sox, and since then he has been .of little use to Comiskey. So not long ago Comiskey asked for waivers on Burns. Not a magnate in the American league refused to waive. They didn't want Burns. Clark Grif fith, manager of, the Cincinnati Reds, Is a foxy old man., He knew Burns, and he knew that Burns could pitch If he would, so when the American league dropped BUI Griffith grabbed him for' his National league team. What did Burns do? Here's two things: He shut of the Chicago Cubs the first two times he pitched against them. Once with only one hit and the next time with two hits. That's enough for Burns. Now hasn't Griffith added to his right to the title of "Old Fox?" He got Burns for $1,600. carelessness or ignorance of their parents, Like Kilanea, the crater contains would in all probability drink from that ,anie glass, laden with the germs of the dreaded tuberculosis.

Are those farmers ignorant of the fact that there are thousands and thou sands of acres of the finest land on earth, in tlie L nitcd Stales, waiting for the plow? Do they think that by going to Canada they can secure better prices for their products? If -so they are very much mis- taken. There is no country on earth where better prices are paid on farm products than in the United States.. I have a small tract of land, only ten acres, but I know that by grow- ing vegetables and small fruits and by raising poultry a Email family will liave enough to support it through life on even so little ground. I intend to settle down on my piece of land in the fall and as soon as my first crop of potatoes is marketed, for which I expect to receive a return of from $100 to $150 an acre, I will plant orange and fig trees, and between the trees set out strawberries and cabbages.

British Scientist for Several Years In dustriously Explored Atmosphere Above City. With the aid of a balloon a British scientist has for several years Indus triously explored the atmosphere over London, and the results of his investi gations afford a strange picture of the skyward extension of the world's greatest city. Somewhat fanciful and yet with a certain degree of truth, London might be said to be six thousand feet high, or deep, for up to about tbat level the air over the vast town Is unmis takably London air. Between three thousand and five thousand feet above the housetops Is a region where dust resembling chaff, filaments and woolen fiber, such as would arise from tho nughfares and from the sweeping of houses, seems especially to accumulate. At least there Is more thero than nearer the ground. In calm weather aerial Lon don becomes to a certain extent strati fied. From about six thousand feet one can often look down upon the surface of the haze, as if It had a definite limit. Ticket Gives Fare Due.

A fan peppered this question at tho leader of the Ath letics In Detroit one day. 'Oh, I wouldn't say that at all," re plied Mack, in his usual guarded way. "There have been, and are, some great bench managers, and there have been, and are, some wonderful playing managers, meaning by playing man agers men In uniform who get out and hustle, as do Clark Griffith and Hughey Jennings. "Ned Hanlon and Frank Selee were two of the greatest bench managers In the history of baseball. Hanlon won pennant after pennant, and Selee, let's see, didn't he win five flags for Bos ton? Then there's George Stallings to day. He seems to be doing right well. "Then look at the playing managers who have been eminently successful Fred Clarke, Frank Chance, Clark Griffith, Hughey Jennings, Jimmy Col lins, Muggsy McGraw and many others. "There Is, of course, one slight ad vantage the bench manager may be said to possess if he has a good cap tain there are two pairs of eyes watching every play from different angles.

First, you would scour the country for a fast Infield that could hit. Then would come the outfield fast ground cover ing outfielders, who could hit, and run bases. A catching staff would follow, and then the box men would be se lected. In the early stages of the game the pitcher came first and the catcher next One catcher did four fifths oi the work behind the stick, and one pitcher with a sub did all the pitch' Ing. That Is the reason we remem ber such players as Buck Ewlng, Mike Kelly, Charles Snyder, Frank Flint, Charley Bennett and other great catchers, as .veil as such pitch' era as Charley Radbourne, John Clarkson, Amos Rusle, Jlmmle Galvln, A. G. Spalding, Bobby Mathers and other famous box men. Some of the greatest ball teams the game has produced had uo star box men. One can hardly remember who did the pltchlni; for Charley Cornis- key's four-time St. Louis winners. What fan outside of Baltimore can remember the staff on the Baltimore three-time winners under Ed Hanlan? Yet where la the real fan that cannot name the other members of the oriole world beaters? 1 No club In the business has dis played the form for ten straight years that Pittsburg has, and no team has depended less on their pitching staff. Whether the pitchers were going good or bad the Pirates have always held a formidable position, depending on their ability to field and make runs. The announcement that "Red" Rob ert Kelly was absent from the White Sox right field on account of an injury proves to have been not quite the whole truth. The club officials forgot to add that Kelly had been stopped playing with the Sox by order of the National commission. It seems that while at Notre Dame last season Kel ly got tangled up with the Holyoke club of the Connecticut league In some way. He did not sign any contract with Holyoke, but gave that club enough claim on his services to allow Holyoke to protest against his use by the Sox and it was necessary to stop him until President Comiskey can straighten out the tangle Into which the collegian got himself. Negotia tions to that end are In progress. "LEFTY" LEIFIELD TF.LLS HOW HE GOT HIS START AS A BASEBALL PLAYER By "LEFTY" LEIFIELD. iCopyrtglit, 1910, by Jonepli B. Bowles.) The first ambition I ever had out side of owning a new breech-load Ing shotsrun was to become a professional pitcher. I used to play hookey from school In St. Louis and lay for balls outside the fence In order to get Into the grounds and see the old Browns play ball. From the time I was nlna nears old I was playing ball all th time, and hardly had time to go to school. The only reason, I think, that I decided to go to the academy waa that they had a good ball club and I . thought I might get a chance to pitch for them, or play the outfield. I played with half a dozen boys' teams before I finally got to be a pitcher on the Red Stars, which was one of the best ball clubs I ever saw. That season I won' 20 out of 21 games and learned mora about pitching every day. I had a good curve and some Idea of how to us it I think I learned more watching "The" BreltcnBteln pitch than In any other way. I used to study what he was doing and then go out and try the same things onthe hoys against whom I was pitcnmg. wncn I wasn't pitcn- lng I played the outfield, for, although no one who' looks at my average will believe it, I used to be a hitter In those days. After a time I got Into some Trolley lengue games and began really to learn something about pitching. I guess a fellow learns more by making mistakes than he does In any other way. That was the way with me. Whenever anyone beat me I sat down and figured out how It happened, and never forgot those things. Iu 1902 I got to Joplin, Mo., as a pitcher. There was a lot of opposition to my going out before I escaped, but I went and, hav ing gone on my own responsibility, I was doubly anxious to make good, so that the boys at home could not laugh at me when I got back. That summer I think was the hard est work of my life. No one ever studied anything as hard as I studied baseball. There were times when I was ready to run home and go to work at anything else, but I stuck to It. Sometimes I thought I never would make a pitcher. To my surprise I be gan to get better, and get away witb, things because I was doing more think- -Ing about what I was doing. I had hit upon the secret of pitching. I had learned that curves and speed are not everything, and that everything de i ' i t: vim : u on l.now any hull okih satisfied i I !:i '.:l: KtalT? "If we h id one 1' !
