NEW RULES TO GOVERN . COLLEGIATE BOXING Chicago, Aug. 30.—A set of rules to govern boxing in the colleges has just been drafted by a ‘special com- mittee appointed by the National Col- lege Athletic association. In Octo- ber there will be a meeting of repre- sentatives of all the colleges thru- out. the country, when a boxing lea- gue will be organized. A board will probably be selected that will have charge of appointing referees and judges, as in football. The rules that will govern college boxing are mostly along the lines that governed the sport at the war camps. One of the innovations, how- ever, will be to have the referee out- side the ring as in England.: There’ll be two. judges. Each bout will be three rounds of two minutes’ dura- tion. . A fourth round may be ordered in event of a disagreement =k IVINS WINNER OF . GRAND AMERICAN Cleveland, Aug., 30.—Breaking 99 of 100 targets, Albert L. Ivins of Red Bank, N.

MAY DUPLICATE LOST OR UNFIT VICTORY MEDALS The Adjutant General has been authorized by the war department to issue duplicates of the Victory medal to enlisted men in the service and to sell- duplicates at cost price to officers, warrant officers and men out of the service upon preserftation of satis- factoty evidence that the original medal was lost, destroyed or rendered unfit for use without fault or neg- lect “upon the part of the person to yhoin it was awarded. No' such’ sales or issues will be made however, until the supply of medals on hand is eufficient to fur- nis}x— them without delaying the issue of ‘the originals. It is also desired that all persons interested be in- formed that there is no law on the statute books which authorizes the issue’ of the:Victory medal, original or duplicate,‘and in ‘making such fs- sue the.

CANMMATE (By United Press) Marion, O., Aig. 30.—Despite the opportunity afforded by his middle name, Warren Gamaliel Harding has entirely escaped having a nickname, so far as anyone in ‘Marion can dis- cover. Many years ago a few boy play- mates called him *“Doc” because his father was a doctor, but the nick- name never stuck. Harding’s secretary, George B. Christian, Jr., calls the candidate “Gov.” Harding was lieutenant gov- ernor of Ohio once. ' Harding refers to himself impersonally as “the can- didate.” - . . SR Mrs. Harding calls him “Warren,” reporters address him as “Senator,” and all visitors trying to be original greet him as “the next President.” THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER | director of the Minnesota Agricul- " BEMIDJI CASH MARKET ‘QUOTATIONS.

The early plowing is especially desired where noxious weeds are present and where there is a large amount of vegetable matter, such as stubble or other waste mater- |- ial to decay. “Frequently there are pieces of land that are benefitted by plowing twice during fall season. A further beneficial effect of fall plowing is the destruction of the nests of insects and crop residue bearing plant dis- eases. 'hese advantages, coupled with the time saved in preparing the land in the spring for planting, are sufficient to warrant farmers in mak- ing a special effort to get all of the {land plowed this fall. ““There is no bad effect from early fall plowing, therefore, the earlier plowing is begun the more can be done before the fall freeze-up”’ CHANGE OF CROPS FOUND DESIRABLE Crop, rotations have been advised by experiment station authorities for years. It has been counted as good practice, says Andrew Boss, vice director of the Minnesota Agricultur- al station, to rotate crops ever since market, | . the days of Roman agriculture. Nu\; merous investigations in several of the states give statistical evidence that yields may be materially in- creased by following a good crop ro- tation. The farm crops section of the di- vision of agronomy and farm man- agement at University Farm has re- cently presented some figures which show that an alteration of crops is desirable. Where a systematic rota- tion cannot be followed, changing from one crop-to another gives bet- ter yields than continuously raising the same crop on the same land. Where oats were alternated with corn at University Farm a 25 per cent increase was secured of oats grown continuously. Wheat follow- ed by corn gave a larger yield of oats than if oats and wheat were al- ternated, showing that the cultivated crop has.a benefiicial effect on land intended for o Oats +alternated « MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 30, 1920 with wheat gave an increase in yield over oats grown continuously. Wheat zave considerably better yield when alternated with oats than it ~did where wheat was grown continuous- ly. The results indicate:clearly that while a change of crop is not so bene- ficial'as a good rotation, there is & decided advantage .and an increase in yield from most of the crops when alternated with some other grain ¢rop - or a cultivated crop. Tl Indications are, says Mr Boss, that from 15 per cent to 25 per cent in- . crease may be expected by alternat- ing ‘or rotating the crops.
