It is Just as true that John Joseph McGraw would never have been the greatest manager of all time if he had acted like a Girl Scout were opOpponents ponents to him and he made no ' exceptions. Indeed, no small part of his fame came because, when engaged in giving and undivided attention to a feud, he often went far afield to assure the camp followers and the distant kinfolk of his enmity. Once, for instance, his ancient Chicago foes were in town for a series. That was in the glowing baseball year of 190S and feelings were running high anyhow. When the Chicago baseball writers arrived at the Polo Grounds press gate they saw a notice pasted there. It stated simply and starkly that, by order of J; J. McGraw, they were not to be permitted to enter the park. Perhaps this did not serve any useful purpose in deciding events upon the field, but I am not so sure about it.

Krueger, Extension Agricultural Engineer, New Jersey Agricultural Experi-meStation WNU Service. nt In early spring when the ground la saturated with water and drainage la Impaired by frozen subsoil, the advantages of a septic tank over a cesspool or dry pit for sewage disposal are easily recognized. Cesspools located In open gravelly or sandy soils operate freely in disposing of sewage but this free movement often causes contamination of nearby water supplies. Cesspools located In tight soils soon seal themselves and become Inoperative. Septic tanks, on the other hand, are water-tigand of a size sufficient to hold the sewage long enough to Insure bacterial digestion. There Is a second digestion chamber where the effluent undergoes additional digestion and aeration and from this chamber it is dispersed by means of a field tile disposal system laid underground In areas removed from the water supply. Septic tanks will operate from four to ten years, before removal of materials becomes necessary. Septic tanks may be purchased ready-mad- e or they may be constructed In place. Construction does not present any difficulties to the average workman and the cost of materials for t a tank Is generally lower than the price of purchased units. A frequent mistake Is the installing of septic tanks which are too small. Tanks should have an approximate capacity of 100 gallons per person In ht undl-gestib- le farm-buil- the family. Pruning Peach Trees in View of Obtaining Growth Peach trees can be pruned successfully at any time during the dormant season. Some growers prefer to prune early in the fall In the belief that the wounds are well healed over by spring before the sap flow starts. Others claim that spring pruning is best owing to danger of freezing the wood during severely cold weather. Their theories, however, are hardly borne out by tests. There is one distinct advantage to late winter pruning as compared to early winter pruning. If one knows there is no chance of getting a peach crop because of excessively low temperatures during the winter, a different method of pruning can be used than when there Is a probability of having a fruit crop. If It is known that owing to extremely low temperatures there will be no fruit, the trees can be pruned more rigidly with a view to obtaining a maximum tree growth, whereas if there is likely to be a peach crop, one can prune with a view of obtaining a maximum yield of peaches. At any rate, pruning should be done In time for the spraying for leaf curl. A tree that has been well pruned is much easier to spray and less spray dope is needed to spray it Missouri Farmer.

Turning them out must be a tremendously hard job, because they deal with the national political scene, and any producer of farces will tell you you cant burlesque a burlesque. In other words, you cant be very funny on a subject which already is so much funnier than anything you can think of and thats what the fellows at Washington are up against This business of trying to be comic is a serious business anyway, especially since all comedy Is predicated on distress. A fat man falling down makes us laugh because he suffers both In spirit and flesh.
