The Field and Farm recommends the
culture OF the Scuppernone grape The
variety is exempt from blight and dis.
ease and has not been disturbed by birds.
This grape is extensively grown in the
Carolinas and from it a superior quality
of wine is made for domestic use. The
vines are grown on arbors and are never
pruned. Each year the arbors are ex-
tended and in those states it seems al
most incredible to believe how much
ground an old vine trailing over an arbor
will cover and the quantity of grapes
grown thereon.

Thanksgiving Reflections.

In most OF our lives there are days
that stand out distinct and swe t; but
among the recollectious which last, few
are sweeter than those which cluster
about Thanksgiving.
Back in the old home, especially In
in New England, where, in America,
Thanksgiving day first saw the light, it
meant more than turkey and mince pie.
1t meant that the "spare room" under
many an old roof tree was ready for the
grand gathering OF uucles, cousins and
grand children; and from garret. where
hung savory herbs. to the cellar with its
rows upon rows of fruit jars, its barrels
of apples and cider-every where were
signs of preparation. 1t also meant a
time of rejoicing for the lean turkey and
runt pig, for none but the plump and
juicy would be allowed to grace the
table on that auspicious day.

Such a crowd has not gathered in
years to witness a baseball game as
that which filed League Park yester-
day, overlooked into the grounds from
the grand stand, and sat in carriages
which were doubled banked about the
fences. And for the first game it
might as well be said that seldom has
such a contest been played and GER
tainly never has any individual player
put up more brilliant game than that
which is accredited to Barney Joy.
The day was a baseball occasion, for
there was little wind, the sun was
warm and the ground conditions were
good The continued working upon
the field has brought League Park into
fine shape and never once during the
two contests was there an occasion
when a fault might be laid against the
surface of the playing grounds. The
people seemed to realize that there
would be a record breaking attend
ance upon the games, and they appear
ed early and despite the fact that the
last game was not OF the highest class
a great crowd waited TO see its agoniz-
ing close.
The II. A c. team beat the Elks by
seven to three, after game which was
dotted with bright spots here and
there, and yet had in it as well some
things which had been better cut out.
Joy had no business TO run down the
line to bump into Perine who was try
ing for foul fly, and was properly out,
and as well, IL there had been rule for
it, might have been taxed S25 for the
offense Again, at first, there was
little mix-up which was not TO the
credit either of the baseman or the
runner, and the crowd yelled over
episodes at second and home. Little |
Ensue had some experiences, not the |
least of which was a collision with /
Cunha. who was Jared until the bail /
rolled from his hand, and Forbes fell |
over Jones like in a game OF leap 4
frog, while tearing past second.
The EIks were clearly off. Two hits
are not enough to win, but it was Joys
good day for he not only held down
his opponents TO that number, but got
Is strikeouts. the unlucky number for
the other fellows, and with one put out
and four fielding assists fattened
score. The H. A. c. team hit rather
freely, and often when wanted, and
the result was that the seven runs were
placed along where they are found

trying to steal second after Jones had
retired with foul fly. Smith hit safely
but died when Kiwa flied out. Forbes
hunted safely and Steere hit to right
but Jones had fallen down right In front
of Forbes and he was still at second.
Lishman got safe hit to left the third
in order without a score. With Tucker
out Wilder hit to left scoring Forbes
and Steere, Wilbur making no effort to
get the drive. Woods was hit by pitch
er again filling the bases, and Lishman
and Wilder scored on Judd's hit over
second. Woods was caught at third
and Castle hit safely in the infield fill
| ing the bases but Robinson was caught
mapping at second, ending the inning
with four runs.
With two men out Gay got base on
| balls and Anderson followed with a
safe hit to right. Wilbur drove one to
left and both men scored. though Rob
inson should have had Anderson who
saved himself by a clever dive under
the catcher.
Forbes opened the fourth with hit
and scored on a double by Tucker who
was caught, for the last put out, at
third on wilder's grounder. The Males
could do nothing in their half and be-
gan the Punahous fifth by presenting
Woods with a base on Smiths error.
After Judd had been given a base on
balls Robinson hit to right and Woods
tailed. Judd scored on Castles fly out
to right, Kiwa seemingly forgetting the
runner. Robinson followed in on
Forbes's sacrifice which added three to
the Collegfans total. The Males could
only drop out in one. two. three style.
The sixth was unproductive for both
sides. For the seventh time the Col
legians faced the Zebras. Castle got
first on Joness error and advanced on
Forbes's hit over which the pitcher and
third baseman stood in conference He
scored on Steeres long fly. Forbes tried
to score on a wild throw over second
but was caught al the lace. Lishmaa

lies. Despite a hit and a base on balls
the Punahous could not score in the
, eighth, nor could Male with only one
hit.
Castle opened the ninth with a long
triple to right, scoring on Forbess hit
a second later. Steere hit and Forbes
scored when Lishman drove one
through Fernandez. Those two made
the total for the winners and the losers
could not do anything in the last half.

the school boards must continue to-

to import teachers by the train load.

WE refused an offer last week to run
profitable display advertisement for
a large outside supply house that is
spending thousands of dollars annually
in advertising to draw trade from such
places as Austin. Not single hard
ware store in this city and only one
grocery house is using the local papers,
and it is notstrange that the big supply
houses catch an immense amount of
patronage from those who have no way
of knowing that they can get equally
satisfactory prices from home mer-
chants. 1t would seem as if it was a
matter of common business prudence
to keep ones business persistently be-
fore the public rather than to have a
large share of it go to outside depart
ment houses. - -

by adding two years to the high school
