EASILY ACCOUNTED FOR.

Causes of the at Present Small Difference in Fielding Averages of the Two Big Leagues.
 The statistician who weekly, at prob. ably great labor, complies a lot of in- teresting record and average tables for the Boston Globe, talks convincinrly of the causes of the now slight difference between the fielding averages of the old and the new leagues. Says he:
 "All ball-players know the difference between fielding behind an effective pitcher and one who deceives the bats man but little and gets killed As batting averages go up fielding averages come down. As rule perfect fielding goes with light-hitting contests.
 ''I had occasion to make similar re- mark year ago when an analysis of the records for the first half of the sea- son of 1889 indicated that the batting was heavier and the fielding was corre- spondingly poorer than for the season of 1888.
 "This fact wants to be noted when comparing the records of the two leagues. An infielder's position in the Players League, owing to the great in. crease in the batting, is much harder to fill acceptably than the same position in the National League. should like to sec McGarr, the cannon ball cater wrestling with the ball that Billy Nash sent down to Deacon White in Satur- days game.
 Another fact must be borne in mind. The Congress street grounds are not as even and level as a parlor floor, and all though Tim Manning has done all that a man could do, it is impossible to get turf infield in good shape in one sea- son. The South End grounds are twen- ty years cid and the infield is nearly perfect"
 What the Globe says of the Boston team and ground will apply with equal force to every other club in the Play ers' League except Buffalo, where there is no conflicting club and the team is playing on ground at least couple of wears old.

Bodily Weight of Males and Females at
 All Ages.
 The average weight of the male in fant at birth is 2 pounds; that of the fe- male is not quite 6N pounds. The maximum weight (14O1S) of the male is attained at the age of 40, that of the fe- male (nearly 124 pounds) is not attained until 50, from which ages they both de- cline in weight, the male to an average of 12716 pounds, the female to about 100. The full-grown adult is nearly twenty times as heavy as a newborn infant. In the first year the weight is tripled; afterwards the growth proceeds in geo. metrical progression, so that if 50 in- fants Tn their first year weigh 1000 pounds, in the second year they will weigh 1,210 pounds; the third, 1880 pounds; in the fourth, 1,464 pounds, re- ,maining very constant up to the ages of Il and 12 in females and 12 and IA in males, where it must be nearly doubled; afterwards it may be continued and will be found nearly correct up to the ages of IS and 19, when the growth proceeds very slowly. At an equality of age the male is generally heavier than the fe- male, except towards the age of 12, when the average weight in both sexes is about the same. The male attains the maximum weight at 40, and begins to lose 1t very sensibly about 50. At 80 he has lost about 1S2S2s pounds, the stature having diminished about 2. 75e inches. Females obtain their maxi mum weight at 50. The mean weight of a mature man is 1o4 pounds; of an average woman o4 pounds. In old age they lose 12 to 14 pounds. The snean weight of both sexes in old age Is that which they had at the age of 19. Chil- dren lose weight during the first three days after birth; at the age of week there is a sensible increase; after 1 year they triple their weight; then they require six years to double their weight again, and IS to quadruple 1t At maturity the full-grown man is threx and one-half times taller, and weighs 20 times more than he did the day of his birth.-St. Louis Republic.

AoUATIC sPoRrS.

Hanlan and Hamm had a quarrel at Kansas City recently. Hanlan called Hamm a dirty tramp and no gentleman which nearly led to blows. John F. Cummings seat with the Bradford crew has been taken by an. other member in response to demand from the members of the crew and off, cers of the club.
 George Hyslop, of Toronto, at Mon. treal defeated Benedict, the crack swimmer of the Montreal Swimming Association, for the championship of Canada by over twenty yards. The Superior Yacht Club, of Milwau- kee, has elected these officers for the ensuing year:-President, c. l.. Catlin: Hlce-President, N. B. Hanson; Secretary, Charles N. O'Hare; Treasurer, John A Bardon.
 The sculling race between John F. Parke, George w. Van Vliet and Charles Saenger, of the Vesper Boat Club, of Philadelphia, at Eagles Mere, on Aug. 25, resulted in victory for Parke, who beat Van Vliet by third of a length. Saenger finished three lengths in tho rear.
 Dr. Charles B. Penrose, treasurer of the Examining Board of Pensions, and Robert Ralston, both of Philadelphia. swam down the Delaware river from Philadelphia to Chester, a distance of fifteen miles, August 25. The men swan for wager, Dr. Penrose winning in five hours and five minutes. MT. Ralston's time was five hours and thirteen min uteS.
 The well-known professional oarsman, Jack Largan, had a very close call the other day on the Harlem river. While speeding in his new paper shell between the Harlem and Madison avenue bridges his boat suddenly struck floating log and was overturned. Struggle as he would, Largan could not extricate his feet from the straps attached to the stretchers. He was fast growing ex. hausted when Oliver, the boat-builder, put off in boat to his rescue and brought him ashore.
 Dennis DonoLue, of the Nautilus Rowing Club, of Hamilton, Ont, who was disqualified by the executive com mittee of the Canadian Association of Amateur Oarsmen, claims to have been unjustly treated by the committee, and says that he will have nothing more to do with the association. Donohue has lostonly one race, and has helped to win two American championships with the Nautilus four. He will now enter the professional ranks, and would like to make match with Casey, of Boston; Joyce, of Springfield, Mass; Corbett, of Chicago, or Rodger, of Saratoga.

BEETS AS FOOD

For MIlch Cows-InterestingE ExDeriments Made at the Ohio Agricultural Experi-
 ment Station - A Comparison of the Efficiency of Commercial and Green Manures on Wheat.
 A bulletin of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, now in press, gives the results of an experiment in feeding sugar heets to milch COWS, made during v winter, together with sum TWO similar experiments, one "..... . the station in 1889 and one by the farm department of the Ohio State University in 1879.
 In the last named experiment eight cows were kept under test for eleven weeks; in 1889, twelve COWS for eight weeks, and in 1S90 twelve cows for nine weeks, the COWS i'll each case being weighed daily, as well as their feed and milk.
 In each of the three experiments the COWS ate more hay and more total dry matter when fee'iing on heets than on other foods (hay. meal and bran in 1879, corn silage in 1889 and lS.)O) and in each case more milk WIS gwen from the beets than from the other fools, but it is not yet demonstrated that the increase of milk was produced economically.
 For twelve years records have been kept on the farm now occupied by the station, which shows that the average yield of beets over this period has been nearly sixteen tons per acre, against an annual yield of about fifty-five bushels of shelled corn per acre.
 But crop of fifty-five bushels of shelled corn, with it's fodder, will con- tain nearly twice as much dry matter as civfnnT nf ments indicate that whether fed dry, as corn meal and dry fodder, or as corn ensilage, the dry matter of the corn crop will be found about as effective, pound for pound, as the dry matter of the beet crop.
 It is possible to raise much more than sixteen tons of beets to the acre. One crop of two acres is reported at 3715 tons per acre, and smaller areas have given still larger yields, but such crops require very rich land and thorough cul- ture. Whether it is possible to produce pound of dry matter in beets as eco- nomically as it can be done in corn is not yet definitely settled, but the proba- bilities are against it.
 COMMERCIAL AND GREEN MANUREs FOR
 WHEAT.
 In an experiment. made by the North Carolina Experiment Station, a series of plots was laid out in such manner that one end of each plot should be on land on which COW peas had been previously plowed under. and the other end on land without peas. The whole was sown to wheat. and kainit, acid phosphate and cotton seed meal were applied to the several plots, singly and in combination. two plots being left without any fer tilizer
 The result was that on the land which had had no fertilizer the highest increase of any of the fertilized over the un- fertllized plots was four bushels per acre tor 800 pounds cotton seed meaD, while on the green manured land the increase from the pea vines was from six bushels at the least to fifteen bushels per acre, averaging ten bushels.
