Grand Forks Wins.

The game of ball between Grand
Forks and the home team, although
somewhat one-sided, was in many
respects a good game. Aside from
the fact that Flanagan was hit
rather hard, the home team played
in hard luck otherwise the score
would have been much closer.
Grand Forks commenced to
score in the first inning. Ball
reached first on a passed ball, w.
Hanarhan made a single, followed
by a two base hit by Mcneil, and
before the side was retired, three
runs had been scored.
Grand Forks also made one in
the second by an error, a sacrifice,
and a single and two in the third
by clean hits.

advanced a base on Ovens single,
and scored on single by Flanagan.
In the fifth Flanagan was touched
up for four hits, and two errors

NOTES OF THE GAME.
Joe Foubert had a finger badly
hurt in the preliminary practice
which seriously interfered with
his playing at first.
Hartly's all around playing was
admired by everybody,
Grand Forks third baseman is
nearly strong enough to break in
to the league.
Reuter- made a great catch of a
foul back against the grand stand,
Mcneil and Ball the battery for
Grand Forks played a good game.
Gerard made a sensational catch
in deep left field and cut off two
runs.
It is a cold day when Ware does
not get a hit.
Grand Forks first baseman
bubbles over with good humor.
Sullivan was hurt in the 18th
inning and had to retire from the
game.
It is no disgrace to be beaten
by Grand Forks. They play the
game.

bricks and so arranged internally that
the eggs, placed in mud constructed

straw, are constantly under the at

is employed by this man, not even a
thermometer. He knows from expert
ence and his own feeling how much
heat is needed, and he systematically
turns the eggs several times each day
until they are developed into peeping
chicks.
"These Matching establishments exist
throughout middle and upper Egypt
and in a season bring fully 100000
chickens into the world that grow up
to be scrawny, unattractive fowls. The
industry is thousands Of years old and
seems conclusively to settle the ques-
ton Of a chickens maternity by allo-
eating that parentage to the hen laying

by which eggs are purchased outright
