C.I. Youth Gives Germans Novel Farming Lesson Deep in the heart of occupied Germany a thriving sample of Indiana In-diana agriculture provides a novel lesson in American farming meth ods for people of the war-ravaged country. A Midwest home demonstration demon-stration agent and a G.I. youth on occupation duty pooled their efforts and ideas to show nearly 100 German Ger-man youths how to be good farmers while augmenting their meager diet by using vegetables grown by themselves. them-selves. Pfc. Birch Bayh Jr. of Vigo county. Indiana, is the American soldier and Miss Mildred Schlosser is the home demonstration agent who are responsible for the project Bayh, 19-year-old Hoosier farmer, qualifies as an able instructor by virtue of his past record. Two years ago, as a contestant in the annual production - marketing contest of National Junior Vegetable Growers association, Bayh was tilling a seven-acre plot on his grandfather's farm, where he raised crops worth more than $1,677. The crops were so good, Bayh sent a special batch to his father, Lt CoL Birch Bayh of the U. S. army, then stationed in China. In the national contest, Bayh's efficient operation rated so high he won the Midwest regional NJVGA title and a $200 scholarship from $6(00o in c vided annuauy In contest awards pro- by A & P food stores. Using this fund to augment his savings, Bayh entered furaue university where his studies were interrupted by a call to army duty. Later he was assigned to the German Ger-man occupation forces. Impressed by the soil near his station in that country, and encouraged encour-aged by seeds sent as a gift to him by Miss Schlosser, home demonstration demon-stration agent and NJVGA advisor of his Indiana club, Bayh quickly recruited nearly 100 youngsters in his area and started a garden project proj-ect He divided his land into 45 individual in-dividual plots with two children assigned as-signed to each. The young growers were given a series of lessons in American methods, tilling, planting and weeding. The results of their efforts are already evident, with a bumper crop of tomatoes and corn well on its way to maturity. Most of these products are new to the youths, but they indicate that they'll eat them with pleasure. Bank Bulges Again-With Again-With Golden Wheat . CENTERVIEW, KAS. - The once-thriving Centerview State bank, which was liquidated 15 years ago, again is bulging with deposits -but this time the money is in the form of golden wheat. Because of a shortage of granary space, A. B. Francis and his son, Raymond, leased the brick building which once housed the bank and have filled it with wheat Frederick Nagle of Berks county, who rented the land for from $5 to $10 a year in present money complied com-plied with the spirit of the deed. He built a log home so substantial that it lasted and was used as a dwelling dwell-ing piace until this year.

A. r Contouring Reduces Soil and Vater Loss Reclaim Waste Land by Half -Moon Shape Fence By C. W. GEE Pioneers who settled Ohio and laid out their fence lines along the true points of the compass would have been shocked bv a land transaction which recently took place in Logan county. Morgan Connor deliberately deliberate-ly added 1.37 acres to his farm nonr Bellefontalne, Ohio, in order to make his fence lines crooked. Having adonted manv soil conser. vation practices recommended by the U. 8. soil conservation service, among which were contouring, his yield had been increased. By this method he reduced water run-off and cut soil loss to the minimum. A fence had been erected on a 32-acre 32-acre tract along the north side of the Connor farm. The fence ran according to the compass. When Wiley Connor returned from the military forces, father and son decided de-cided to reclaim several acres of waste land, which Included an old barn lot near the north line and bisected bi-sected by a small ditch. Unable to plant the land to berries ber-ries on the contour because of the straight fence line, the two moved the fence. Now their line fence follows a half-moon shape which would have aroused the horror of the early Ohio settlers. Connor, however, how-ever, Is not concerned with guiding his life and farming activities by the compass. Ha is concerned with saving his top soil. Two diversion ditches have been constructed and six acres of trees planted. KNOW YOUR BREED Minnesota No. 1 By W. J. DRTDEN Minnesota No. 1 Is not a hybrid hog, it is a new strain more highly inbred than most existing breeds. A cross of the Danish Landrace and Typical Minnesota No. 1 and I cross barrow. the Tamworth, matings were first made in 1936 at the University of Minnesota. The new breed is long bodied and short legged, with a full ham, light shoulder and a light strong bone. The ears are rather large but thin and of good quality. The breeders have been selected upon the basis of performance, i.e., fertility, survival, sur-vival, rate of growth, economy of gains and body conformation. A new breed, Minnesota No. 2, also is being perfected at Minnesota. Easy Method Used For Dipping Pigs A simple arrangement for dipping pigs at vaccination time, devised by Dr. J. O. Black. Nebraska veterinarian, veteri-narian, is shown in a c companylng drawing. One side and end of a SO gallon drum has been opened at the left In cutting the drum turn the sharp edges in and down so the pigs will not get injured when getting get-ting out The drum is placed out side the pen where vaccination is to be done. After each pig is vaccinated, lt is dropped over the fence and into the drum on its back. The pig will turn over in the drum and jump out and drum will be ready for the next pig. Soil Packing Reduces Productivity of Land "Plug your soils as you would a watermelon," is the advice of many soil experts. This will give you a chance to see compactions that arc holding down yields. Modern heavy equipment and short-sighted cropping crop-ping practices have robbed the soil of its organic matter and ofter packed it according to Middle West Soil Improvement committee. Permanent Per-manent remedy is regular use ol deep-rooted legumes. 0bF .rrr"- fir .r.yfl i V ! 1, " ; , -' ,4 r , - - t, 1 DOCKY GRAZIANO, the Dead AV End kid from Brooklyn, Is now middleweight champion of ths world.

The onlj active division w have left ! His profession U J prize fighting, which is the lowest form of making a Graziano living. And tha toughest But it is still his profession. And it is a profession pro-fession that demands certain important im-portant qualities before you reach the top. As we understand the case, Bra-clano Bra-clano was barred in New York by the district attorney's office, with Eddie Eagan of the boxing commission com-mission forced into a position h was never too keen about Graziano' Grazi-ano' s main offense was a matter ol politics. Too many were looking for headlines. This is a normal situation. situa-tion. As we have said before, Graxiano la not a likeable or a lovable character. char-acter. But he has proved that ha can fight. He doesn't wear a tie and his manners leave much to be de-aired. de-aired. But, he can nail yon and hurt you, and that happens to be his trade. The main answer is that right now Graziano Is the middleweight champion of the world. There is no one even close to Joe Louis in tha heavyweights. There is no one even close to Gus Lesnevlch or Ray Robinson Rob-inson in their class. They are three Robinson Crusoes on a desert Island. But, outside of Tony Zale, Graziano Grazi-ano still has LaMotta and Cerdan left, and one or two others. He happens hap-pens to be in the flstlo land flowing with milk and honey. And, I believe, be-lieve, he has earned his place to make one of the big killings of hie game. He proved both his ability and his gameness against Zale. He had to hurdle the handicap of their first fight where he was accused of taking tak-ing a quick powder. He was being beaten again when he came from behind to win. He had to show double dou-ble courage here. . Hans Wagners Successor In lining up baseball's all-time stars, you run across one spot that has only one guardsman. Back of the bat you have Mickey Cochrane, Bill Dickey, Gabby Hart-nett, Hart-nett, Johnny Kling and back in the dim past a great catcher remembered remem-bered as Buck Ewing, a master.. In the box we have Cy Young, Walter Johnson, Christy Mathaw-son. Mathaw-son. Old Pete Alexander, Carl Hub-bell, Hub-bell, Rube Waddell, Lefty Grove and others. At first we have George Slsler, Lou Gehrig, Hal Chase and Bill Terry. At second there are Eddie Collins, Col-lins, Pie Traynor, Art Devlin and Bill Bradley. In the outfield we have Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Trls Speaker, Joe Jackson Jack-son and Joe DiMaggio. But at shortstop we come to a big, shuffling, bowlegged wonder by the name of Honus Wagner. Wagner Wag-ner has been so far in front of all other shortstops as an all-around star fielder, hitter and base runnerthat run-nerthat no one else has been offered of-fered in comparison. Such names is Herman Long, Hughey Jennings, Travis Jackson, Dave Bancroft and Marty Marion have been given their share of acclaim. But none of these has been even close to Wagner. The Flying Dutchman led his league seven years. He was a .350 bitter. He could steal from 45 to 55 bases a season. According to John McGraw and Ed Barrow, two of baseball's smartest, Hans Is the greatest ballplayer of all time. Who Comes Second? As both put it, "Wagner was a great shortstop a great third baseman base-man a star outfielder a good ratcher one of the greatest of all altters and base runners." Wagner still stands alone at short But who is the seconl choice? Who belongs closer to Pittsburgh's Pitts-burgh's brilliant star? Our guess is Lou Boudreau of Cleveland. Boudreau has had to carry the extra burden of handling I losing ball club. In this respect, ne has done everything you could ask with indifferent material. Year after year, he has been a brilliant Infielder. And this season he has been among the leaders of Jie American league at bat For some odd reason, outside of Wagner, few shortstops are .300 litters. Boudreau Isn't Wagner, but he is at least close to a grip on the No. 2 rpot at the agile art of short-Itopping. short-Itopping. He was born In 1917, and entered oaseball In 1933, with the Three Eye League, after two seasons at the U. it Illinois. Before the year was up, Cleveland grabbed him. He has keen hitting around .333.
