The much talked ot boxing match between Bud Anderson and ReL Wlti son which failed to materalire some time ago due to the failure of both principals to como to a satisfactory agreement, may be pulled off after all as word was received yesterday from G. M, Anderson, the millionaire moving picture magnate who is Wat son's manager stating that he Is now willing to match Watson against An derson for Labor Day, September" 2. Anderson who has been oa a hunt ing and fishing trip In the vicinity of his home town. Vancouver. Wash., the past three weeks has been noti fied, but as yet no word has been received from hlra. If the Anderson-Watson match can 1e secured Manager Frankie Edwards will cancel the several other matches he has1 had In view, as the Anderson Watson bout would prov a great attraction and would no doubt be a record breaker in point of attend ance. Watson Is a high class youngster and is rated as one of the best, bis last appearance in the ring being a month ago when ho met Frankie Burns in a hard 20 round bout Abe Label who lost a ten round decision to Bud Anderson was knocked out in eight rounds by Watson several months ago. DARROW'S ACQUITTAL HP HE acquittal of Clarence Darrow of the ehnrgo of bribing a jury, was to bo expected from tho cvmoneo presented in the ease. The testimony given against him was not of a character to warrant conviction and the prosecution was unable to convincingly prove a motive. Tho case had all the earmarks of having been trumped-up to discredit and besmirch tho defendant and to bring odium upon the causl- of organized labor which he represents. For years a bitter fight has been waged in Los Angeles by organized employers to deny their employes the right to organize. Blind partisanship and inexcusable violence has characterized both parties. Persecution and starva- i V J1 1 J it : 11 1 non wore me tactics on mo one smo ami violence aim dynamite on tho other. So bitter has the strujnjlc boon that it is doubtful if those concerned are able to view the situation except through the highly colored bunders of prejudice. More accusation was accepted sis fact and found implicit belief among, those whom passion had blinded. The. state made rather a poor case. Tho unsupported word of a confessed accomplice and crook, evidently secretly employed as a spy to betray those whom he pro tended to serve, was the main reliance of the prosecution and it was not difficult to discredit such testimony. The boasted evidence Detective Burns lould.y asserted he had gathered, like much of tho great detectives brag, proved uiuit ana u luster. Barrow was employed to save the lives of the iUcJNamaras. This he accomplished, evidently without having had to resort to bribcrv. But it does' not excuse liimor deluding the people of the country into a belief m uie innocence ot tho -UeNamaras and reaping thereby an immense defense fund from the pennies of the poor.

O'Gara The time is near at band when those, who wish to grow cover cropB in their orchards should be considering the matter. It has been shown during Iho past two or three years that cover crops are not so difficult to grow as bad always been supposed. It has been found that the geat secret of suc cess In obtaining a good cover crop depends upon the time and manner of seeding. In the past, cover crops havo been put in too late in tho season and broadcasting the seed has been the regular practice. It has beon found that to get results one should drill the seed as early as the latter part of August or the first week in September so as to take advantago of the usual early September rains. If the seed is drilled In the ground to a depth ot two and a half to three inches, there is less danger ot the germinating seed being injured by the drying ot the surfaco of the soil as would be the case in broadcasting where "a great deal of the seed would not be placed at a uni form depth. If the first rains are heavy enough to reach somowhat bolow the drilled seeds, germination is assured, and a rapid penetration of the roots to a greater depth will take place. Furthermore, the deep root sys tem secured by drilling will place the roots at a safe depth so that they Will not be affected by the cool and frosty nights of the fall and early win ter. This latter factor alone is of very great importance, and should not bo overlooked. "Why Cover Crop Are Needed With the system of clean cultivation practiced by tho fruit grower, there Is a constant demand upon the soil for plant food, but nothing Is ever permitted to return. The humus content ot the soils becomes depleted and, in time, the trees are unable to secure tho requisite amount of plant food necessary to produce a crop. Of course, commercial fertilizers may be a'dded, but they are always expensive. Under our conditions 'it is Impossible to. secure barnyard manure in sufficient quantities, therefore there remains but oho method to pursue, namely, to grow the humus in the form of cover crops. After all, this is nature's method of improving the physical as well as the chemical condition of the soil and it is certainly the most economical one. Since cover crops may be grown during parts of the year when tho trees are not using the available plant food, tho land may bo made to grow two crops annually cover crops and fruit crops. These crops aro not competitors, but rather co-operate in the production of the main crop, name ly, fruit. In the true sense of tho word, a cover crop is one which should be returned In Its entirety to tho soil. It Is a mistake to think that a cover crop may be grown between the trees and then harvested as a hay crop.' Of course, there is some return to tho soil through the stubble and roots of the cover crop, but under our conditions n practico of this sort not only removes plant food but has a tendency to remove too much moisturo from tho soil. i (To bo continued.)
