away all the time. The players were given
a drill In catching and kicking the ball.
taokling the dummy. falling ON the ball
and signal practice. Captain Meizger was
slightly under the weather and did not
get into the work.
The storm considerably upsni the ~'ans
of DR.. Hedges as he intended taking the
men down the coast in launch for am
other lineup.
The signal practice was very poor
Throughout. No one seemed anxious TO
do his part correctly or with any dash
Yesterday morning owing to Wednes-
days slow practice, the coaches thought
best to give the men a rest. Consequent
~ quiz on the new rules occupied most
OF the time These rules are causing the
candidates lots of trouble as they nre
entirely different from the old ones and
IN many places there SO entirely too much
room left open for discussion.
Quite few points have produced long
ana heated arguments. An instance of
this Is IN the marking Of the field. This
point was so thoroughly discussed, with
out conclusion. that several bets were
made to the effect that by the fall of 1904
the game would again be played on a
grldiron and not on a checkerboard.

Those who fear the coming Of San
lose scale among their fruit trees
should benr in mind that this pest-docs
not conflne itself to fruit trees. Those
who may have a collection of Towering
shrubs on their grounds may find it on
some of those bushes. Many shrubs
belong to the same natural order as the
greater number of fruits do, and these
take the scale just as quickly. The Py-
rus japonlca, or fire bush. as many call
It because Of its fame colored flowers,
Is the delight of the scale. On many
private grounds where it had been in
use as an ornamental hedge. it has been
necessary to root It out and burn it to
get rid Of the scale. Osnge orange
hedges have met the same fate. These
two plants are but a small portion OF
those liable to become infested. Every
shrub should be examined at stated
times. The Russian olive. the bladder
nut the towering almonds and many
other nice shrubs have carried the pest.
The scale can be controlled on fruit
trees and on all bushes if spraying is
not neglected. Practical Farmer.

LIKES OLD CAME BEST
Veteran Player Says New Rules Have

"They can talk about the improve

Jesse Burkett but for me. give me
the old days. TO tell the truth. they
have improved the game until IL IS not
baseball any more. and the American
is just as bad as the National League.
in fact neithor can come up TO the old
National League. Take that team OF
ours ia Cleveland Put IL together
again, and it would make these teams
today look cheap, and we had only
thr J. ttCfs az that.
We had good nclders and pitchers.
though. and. what counted more we
had nine men In every game. and never
lost contest rnui three men had been
Pit ont IN the ninth inning. That's
what won games for us.
Nowadays you do not see any such
fighting for a game. The team that
has the luck wins-and that's an there
is TO iL People used TO go TO games
and get SO excited that they Avhooped
her uu from start TO finish. Now the
pitcher is the whole thing and most of
the games are like funerals. The othe,
dag we beat Boston TO 1. and so helm
me, you would have thought you We're
in graveyard Neither team made
any noise, aud the spectators were like
clans II IS not the PLAYERS who are
at fault but IL IS the rules. Give the

rormcr. Tben and NOW.

It is difficult for n progressive farm
er Of the present day TO realize how
farmers Of forty years ago could live
when every farm operation was done
by hand or by use of the crudest con-
trivances. Grain was cut with a era
die. hay with a scythe. Flowing was
done with q metal pointed mold board
stocked at home, and a tree fork and
wooden pegs made the harrow. Grain
was trodden out by horses or thrashed
on rail pens with fails. Then there
were no many toothed cultivators,
weeders or disk plows OF harrows.
Then an acre day was good work in
cultivation or preparation. Now we do
much better work at the rate Of five to
ten acres per day. Now one man can
do the work that formerly occupied five
or more men the same number of hours.
The inventive genius Of man has been
gradually eliminating every form Of
drudgery from farm life.-Exchange.

Peaches win BE Scarce.

j. H. Merriman says that the crop in
Connecticut this season is a failure.
He does not expect the yield to amount
10 over 5000 baskets. He will have
about 200 barrels of apples. At the
Connecticut Valley company's peach
orchard Manager Molumphy said that
the peach yield would be very light. It
would be so scattering that it was hard
to give an estimate, but would not be
more than tenth Of a good crop. It
was so throughout the slate. they
bad more than most orchards. If the
year had been good. he said, the yield
would have been about 100000 bas-
kets with the new trees that would
have come into bearing. - American

Potatoes and Apples short.

With rot in the potato crop, scab on
the apples and Jack Frost on the heels
of the lazy corn crop, farmers have
their troubles this year. We fear that
the potato rot will be serious. The wet

This tribute to the country reared
man is from the st. Louis Post-Dis-
patch: Strange to say, most Of the men
who occupy really important places in
the great cities Of the present and the
men who hold the high political Offices
IN the different states are men who
were born in the country. How long
has it been since Illinois had had a
governor, a secretary Of state. an au-
ditor or an attorney general who was

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Stick to Known Breeds.

The history OF live stock breeding is
largely a history of variation and ira.
provement. New breeds have come
forward from time to time in all kinds
of live stock AS a rule these have
been the result of some iocality's seiec-
ton Of animals adapted to its needs
and their constant improvement. Aside
from the poultry industry. which has
been enriched by q number of made"
breeds. the new breeds have not sprung
from any mans fancy, but from many
mems needs. They were first found
useful by many. then bred with such
,kill and to such uniformity that they
became entitled to breed distinction.
Every now and then we see men COM
ing forward with some new idea in
breeding, the product Of which they at
tempt to establish as a separate breed.
They are rarely successful. An indi-
vidual fancy is not as a rule based on
the broad foundation Of usefulness to
the many. which Is an essential to pop
ularity. New breeders are apt to be at
tracted by these so called breeds and
usually to their sorrow They waste
time and money on something for
which no general demand exists after
they have It. when they might be rails
ing and selling animals whose breed
recommends them to certain extent.
There are now breeds enough to fulfil
the needs Of every land and cline and
breeds that have a heritage Of genera
tons Of selection for some purpose as
assurance of excellence and uniform
ity. Better join hands with the breed
ers and improvers Of these than to seek
"some new thing" which is likely to
show you more about the law of varia-
ton than anything else~-Farm and
