TWO SCHEDULES PREPARED.
President Young Completes Work on
a Three and Four-Trip Circuit.


President Nick Young, after long and
careful consideration, has completed two
schedules, one for three-trip and one for
a fOur-trip circuit Mr.. Young says that
in arranging these schedules he has en-
deavored, as far as possible to avoid long
and expensive Jumps as mileage is one of
the largest expenses attaching to the busi-
ness, and after n careful review of his
work he cannot find where he can make
any improvements in that regard. He be-
lieves that an analysis of the schedule vii:
show that the assignments are as just and
equitable as possible. and believes the
schedule will be endorsed by all the mag
mates II is well understood that the
plum -picllers'' cannot have their choice
OF the orchard every year. These favors
alternate, and consequently all the clubs
must expect to get some bitter with the
sweet and look pleasant.
