"• Miller It isn't Enough to say that most athletes are honest. This applies to baseball, football, basketball and boxing. In another way it applies to racing. .We mast go beyond this rating. In 1919 there wfere over 400 honest ballplayers -- yet there were eight j players who came near wrecking i the game. Judge Landis and Babe Ruth saved it. The professional gambler, as a rule, is smart, smooth and intelligent, although there are exceptions. He knows human nature and its weaknesses. > And he has cash to offer.

They make up in numbers what they lack in size, and riddle the , leaven with small holes. Injured leaves turn yellow or brown ^ and dry. Newly set transplants and seedlings may be severely stunted or even killed. Tomato, potato, egg- plant, and pepper are favorites of the flea beetle, and cauliflower, broccoli, cabbaee, radish, and qfner plants'are often injured.

I know practically every boxing writer and official around New York. In a ten-round cbntest I've seen two able boxing writers disagree entirely on six or seven of the ten rounds, and both disagree just as violently with the three officials, who in turn were disagreeing with one another. 4 Field Drainage . • If a field has a wet* spot, a tfraintfige ditcli can usually be plowed mil and graded in the time it takes for the field to dry out.
