3 SPORTING WORLD
The Desigmer of Shamreek IIL.
Willlam Fife of Fairlie, Scotland, is
the designer of Shamrock III. the new
and third challenger for the America’s
cup built by Sir Thomas Lipton, and
his previous experience in constructing
racing craft should make him a dan-
gerous man for American designers to
oppose. Fife has the assistance of
George Watson, designer of Shamrock
I., and consequently the coming chal-
lenger will represent the highest type
of a British racing machine.
Although many diversified reports
concerning Lipton’s new boat have
been received on this side of the Atlan-
WILLIAM (“‘“WULL') FIFE.
tic, but little is definitely known as to
the details of its underbody. Certain
it is, however, that the vessel is
fashioned on the same general lines
as the Columbia, which Charlie Barr
twice sailed to victory. Shamrock III.
will be built of aluminium and steel,
whereas our ninety footer is to be con-
structed of bronze.
Young Corbett’s Temper.
Young Corbett seems to be very much
nettled and his temper to have been
stirred up by the refusal of two states
to permit his championship battle with
McGovern. When told that Jimmy
Britt, the Californian, had included
htm in his offer to knock him out in
ten rounds or forfeit $5,000, the cham-
pion made this reply: “Britt has been
making all kinds of offers to me. Now,
I'll make him one. I will agree to stop
him in ten rounds for $10,000 side bet
if he will make 128 pounds. I am
featherweight champion. Britt is a
lightweight. He is now matched to
box Frank Erne at 185 pounds at 6
o'clock. I'm fighting men in my class.
Britt would do well to do the same or
keep quiet.”
Slosson to Play Abroad.
When the world’s championship bil-
liard tournament begins in Paris in a
few weeks, George Slosson will be one
of American's representatives. “The
Student” will shortly sail for I‘rance
and upon his arrival will prepare for
the tournament, which will be opened
with the preliminary round on Dec. 15.
The championship event. which has
such experts as Vignaux, Cure, Four-
nie and Gibelin entered. will be eight-
cen inch balk line, two shots in, and it
is expected that another championship
will be played at eighteen inch balk
line. with cne shot in.
Wishard and the Drake Stable.
Enoch Wishard, the noted trainer of
the John A. Drake stable, recently ar-
rived at Lexington, Ky.. to superintend
thie shipping of the Drake yearlings to
Nushville, where they will winter. It
is reported . that Wishard will also
make an offer for the crack colt Lem
teed, imp. Victory—N>Mlertie Reed, which
Owner Wesley Fields says can run a
mile over the Kentucky association
track in 1:40. This feat has been ac-
complished by no horse since Ducat’s
time. [I'ields wants $10,000 for Lem
Reed.
Dan Patch’s Long Stride.
Dan Patch is a tremendously long
striding horse. Actual measurement at
Memphis showed his stride at top speed
to be 20 feet 9 inches. He is also very
Pold going, especially for a pacer. In
addition he has a little lost motion
behind, not being a pure “line” pacer,
but having a slight outward swing in
his stroke that, when all conditions are
not favorable, must surely impede his
progress, if but a trifle.
California Rowing Coach.
Henry Peterson, the veteran Califor-
nian oarsman, who held the world’s
championship in the eighties, has been
signed as trainer fcr the University of
California crews. The Californians
have never made much of a showing
in aquatics in the past, and the em-
ployment of Peterson is for the pur-
pose of booming this branch of sport.
Mullen Refuses Big Offer.
George Mullen of the Detroit Amer-
ican league team has announced that
he has refused to accept an offer of
$4,000 a year which had been made
him by President Robison of the St.
Louis National league. He has signed
a Detroit contract and says he will
play in that city next season.
HINTS FOR FARMERS
fiave @ Rural Phone Servies.
The farmers in the vicinity of Grand
Rapids, Wood county, Wis, wanted
cheaper telephone service, so banded
together amd formed a company for
themselves, says an exchange. An
earnest, reputable citizen acted as
leader, aided by a number of reliable
assistants. They got out articles of in-
corporaticn and a city franchise on the
mutual plan, then divided the work
and procured rental contracts. When
a sufficient number of telephone users
had been obtained as subscribers to
the new stock, a meeting of the stock
subscribers was called and the organ-
ization completed by electing a board
of directors.
Then the projectors tried to get their
machines into the leading business
places. The telegraph company at first
refused to put the new phone into its
office, but as soon as it realized the
old company was defeated it wanted
the new phone. The monthly rentals
never exceed $2.25 for business and
$1.25 for residence phones, less than
half the prices charged in most places
by the old monopoly. Most ;thrifty
farm homes in that section are -anited
by the new farmers’ telephone line.
Every rural community should own
and operate its telephone system. Sev-
eral independent manufacturers fur-
nish the necessary outfit. There is no
mystery about it.
Ilgzgs In Winter.
At a New York state farmers’ insti-
tute the reader of an essay on poultry
gave his method of feeding to get eggs
in winter. Take one part of corn and
two parts of oats and have them
ground together quite fine. To 200
pounds of this add 100 pounds of
ground wheat or of bran and mid-
dlings. To ten quarts of this mixture
add one quart of animal meal and
moisten with skimmilk if you have it.
I'eed this in the morning in V shaped
troughs, giving as much as they will
eat in fifteen- minutes, and gather up
what is left at that time. At noon
give green feed of cabbage, beets or
turnips cut up. An hour later give
light feed of small grains scattered in
chaff or straw. The night feed, at 3:30
p. m., is equal parts of wheat, oats and
corn scattered in the straw. so that
they will work until dark to find it.
Keep oyster shells where they can pick
them when they please. Have dust
bath of road dust or coal ashes for
them and provide plenty of fresh wa-
ter. Use kerosene oil on the roosts
and insect powder in the nests. With
carly hatched pullets or young hens
through their molt this gives eggs all
winter.
Why Do We Plow?
Some one bas said that after we
know the why it is easy to determine
the when and how, therefore we might
ugk, Why do we plow? says L. W.
Lighty. To make a seed bed for the
next crop would be the general reply.
but there are a number of specific rea-
sons. ‘l'o turn under manure, trash or
undesirable plant or sod. If a field is
badly infested with a perennial weed,
setting the earth up on edge, covering
the. top and exposing the roots often
work wenders in cleaning up foul land.
Then we plow to regulate the
warmth, air and moisture of the soil,
to deepen the soil or seed bed, to pul-
verize the soil. If a plow is properly
made. it will not only turn the furrow
slice, but will do considerable pulver-
izing. This is hardly essential in fall
plowing. Only by taking all these rea-
sons into consideration and possibly
minor local conditions can we deter-
mine intelligently when and how to
plow. Plowing is one of the most
tedious and expensive operations on
the farm and is worthy of our careful
thought.
Potato Crop and Prices.
While there is considerable complaint
in parts of New York and Vermont as
to the condition of the potato crop with
advanced prices, yet reference to the
government crop report shows a gener-
al yield throughout the country above
the average. All the large potato grow-
inz states except New York and Michi-
can report a yield per acre considera-
Lly above their ten year averages. This
year's average yield per acre is 95.4
bushels as against only 65.5 bushels in
1901 and 80.8 bushels in 1900. Though
potatoes may be scarce and high in
some localities, yet the heavy crop
throughout the ‘country and the mod-
ern transportation facilities will pre-
vent any marked general advance for
the present.—American Cultivator.
Cowpeas With Corn.
A correspondent of the Southern Cul-
tivator says he planted an early varie-
ty of cowpeas with his corn and again
planted peas when laying by, so that
all through the growing season the
ground was shaded by the peas. The
result was the heaviest yield of the
largest ears of corn he had ever raised.
This brings up a rather new question,
Do cowpeas furnish nitrogen to the
corn growing with them? If this cor-
respondent states facts, there is a
strong presumption that they do and
that the s%ading of the ground also
helps the corn. This is a matter that
should be subjected to a systematic
test.
A Favorable Fall.
Excepting for accident or sickness
there has been but little excuse this
fall: for farmers not getting their work
in excellent shape, says Stockman and
Farmer. The weather in most sections
has been all that could be asked for.
Frost injured but few crops. While it
has been too dry in some places for
best results in seeding, as a whole the
wheat crop has a fair start for winter.
The weather has been ideal for the
feeder, and live stock has had a good
opportunity to make a good showing
for the grain consumed.
FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Reems With Expression.
An expressionless room is no longer
tolerated by people of refined taste,
while rooms that mean something be-
come more popular every day, and of
these the colonial room, the oriental
room and the delft room seem to have
the largest number of admirers. The
oriental room is particularly good when
there are north windows and a warm,
cozy effect Is desired. The colenial
style is not well adapted to small
|
rooms. but under proper conditions it ;
ix decidedly satisfactory, and it appeals !:
strongly to the wealthy, for it usually
represents a large expenditure.
rooms are most attractive in delicate
tenes, and since cheap stuff will not
take the dye in these tones it is im-
possible to produce cheap imitations, a
fact very gratifying to the exclusively
inclined. 1 delft rooms are )
exxily attained by the artistic house-
wife of sn
a real friend in need, for
made wonderfully pretty at little ex-
pense. There are beautiful cretonnes
in delft and white that work intaq the
furnishings most satisfactorily.

signed for almost every style of room. |
And that reminds me. If you can’t
achieve a room with expression, have
a cozy corner and be happy. but don’t
put a Japanese cozy corner into a colo-
nial room. That would suggest a
crazy idea that no room would be
willing to express if it had a voice in
the matter.
Orange Cake.
Beat to a cream the yolks of four
eggs with one cup of granulated sugar, |
to which add the whites of two eggs
beaten to a stiff froth and a half cup of
milk alternately with one and a half
cups of sifted flour into which a tea-
spoonful and a half of baking powder
has been well mixed. Beat well and
bake, in three layers if the pans are
large or four if small, in a quick oven
from seven to ten minutes, try with a
broom straw, and when it comes out
clean remove from the oven. Don’t let
them bake a moment too long, or they
will not absorb the icing. Filling: The
whites of two eggs beaten to a stiff
froth, to which add a cup of powdered
sugar, pouring it in all at once and
beating hard; then the grated rind or
an orange—select one dark in color—
and the juice. The mixture should be
like a thick cream. Spread thickly om
the cake while hot, and to what is left
add enough sugar—about half a cuj='ul
—for frosting to harden. Ice the top
and: sides. This is a delicious cake,
easily and quickly made.

five inches across should be used for

which fastens to stud buttons sewed to

Salmon Loaf.
Take a can of salmon, four eggs beat-
en light, four tablespoonfuls of melted
butter and a cup of breadcrumbs; chop
fish fine and season to taste with salt
and pepper; stir in butter with a silver
fork until a smooth paste is formed;
beat the breadcrumbs into the eggs;
then work all together, form into a loaf
and steam an hour; serve cold, sliced
thin.
To Cleanse Milk Vessels,
Wash vessels which have contained
milk in cold water first and afterward
scour them with hot water and soda.
The use of cold water first insures
greater cleanliness, for plunging at
once into hot water is apt to set the
milk and cause it to hang about the
cans and pans to the detriment of the
milk which is afterward placed in it.
The Gas Stove Toaster.
A toaster for the gas stove is like
any other toaster in the upper part, |
with wires and a tong handle, but be-
low it and with supports which hold
the toaster away from the fire from
one-half to two inches is a piece of
wire gauze through which
flames cannot pass.
Quaint Frames,
Quaint frames can be easily made by
covering an old wooden frame with
very rough sacking and then gluing on
to one side a spray of dried grasses.
Gild or silver the whole, and you will
have a delightfully quaint and at the
same time very inexpensive frame.
