Champion Coon Dog Wins His 15-Year-Old Owner $1,000 Stake Kenton, Ohio.—The king of the North American coon hounds is no "high brow.” Unpedigreed and unheralded, a black-and white fox dog owned by 15-year-old J. E. Smith, Franklin, Ohio, became coon hound champion over 160 entries by winning the $1,000 Leafy Oaks stake. Four thousand dog fanciers and lovers of the sport of coon hunting watched young Smith’s willing entry take the first line of elimination event, three honors in the semi final and both of the first three and second line finals in the grand final. Many a distorted face is due to obstruc tion in the nasal passage. Drink between meals every day at least six glasses of water.

ROWAN FARM GLEANINGS By W. G. YEAGER County Agent Rowan farmers are in the midst of harvesting their lespedeza seed crop a crop that developed from obscurity within the past ten years and today will return to the Rowan farmers more money than will the cotton crop i >f the county. Cotton is on about 2,300 farms ind lespedeza on about one thousand arms. The seed crop that will be sold is on about one half of this number. The early yields reported are most en couraging. Ten to 25 bushels per acre covers the range of yields that are coming to our attention. With the fine weather that has been prevailing many of our folks are rush ng the mowing and threshing and are jetting a rather green sample of seed hat will lower the market value. Wise armers would not pull green corn for ;eed corn and at the same time will go nto their lespedeza while it is still *reen (the seed) and start to mow, rake and thresh. A little common sense right here is all that is needed. After the seed is hreshed it must be carefully handled :o prevent heating and lowering the germination. The best practice is to tore the lespedeza crop in the barn >r stack Deiore it is tnresnea tor iu o 45 days and then it may be thresh 'd and stored in bulk with no danger ;f heating. When it is threshed direct rom the wind row the seed should be ackcd and the sacks stood on end with ome ventilation all around the sides. The best sample of seed will be se cured from seed that is stored 20 or >0 days after threshing before it is ecleaned. There will be a market for all 'odder free lespedeza seed and pro 'ably some with a slight amount of 'odder, however it is up to each in ividual farmer to so handle his seed hat it will be of the very highest uality and germination.
