Attention
Farmers.

Why remain in the north
and stay 10 doors six months
in the year consuming what
you false during the other
six monthsp
Go south where you can
work out doors every month
in the year, and where you
are producing something the
year round. II you are q
stock raiser you know your
stock are now "eating their
heads off" and, besides, have
to be protected from the
rigors Of winter BY expensive
shelter. sf' = y
Economical stock feeding
requires the combination Of
both tlesh-iorming and fat
forming foods in certain pro-
portions. Alabama and
Florida produce in abundance
the velvet be1n and cassava,
thefrst q flesh producer, and
the latter 3 fat producer, and
they are the cheapest and
best fattening materials
known to the world.
More money can be made
and with less labor, In gener-

that conflicting thoughts Of gratitude
and duty have caused me to hesitate
as to the time and manner Of dec

seem necessary or proper.
TN the midst of II all and in full
view of every consideration presented.
I have not for a moment been able,
nor am now able. to open my mind to
the thought that in any circumstance
or upon any consideration I should
ever again become the nominee Of my

Team Averages,

When the Departmental League inaugu-
rated Its first season last year the PLAYERS
opened fire with high averages and kept up
the clip the entire season. Much specula-
ton was INDUCED in as to whether the
limit had been reached or If even better
figures would be strung up the following
season. That the first years work was
only a sort of trial spin may be seen from
the following comparison of the first sea-
sons averages for thirty-six games with
the present figures: Last year Bum led
with 1S5 average; Lord second 1874; Leim-
bach third, 1S3, and Garrett fourth 1S1
These were the only men over 1SO and only
eighteen were ITO or better while at the
present time twelve players are over $50
and thirty-three are In the 10 class
Hardie started off last Monday with $40
for set which was high for the week, and
pushed his average up from 191 to 1872. a
Lead OF five points over TONY Rice, who
has been promoted to the "reguars'' and
who relegates BILLY Crist to third place.
Meyers was not in his best form and fell
off slightly In average. He drops from
third to fourth, and Helmerichs from fourth

SIX DAYS CYCLE RACE.
Big Crowd Witnessed Exciting
Spurts.


Thousands of noisy people crowded Madi-
son Square Garden. New York, last night
and amused themselves by shouting at the
professional cyclists who are riding around
the saucer-shaped track in seemingly
ceaSeless whirl.
The race was enlivened early yesterday
afternoon by sprint, perhaps the most
sensational part of The race. Breton OF the
French team was on the track. and Con-
tenet, his partner, was at the side or the
track ready to relieve him. Hedspeth was
also ready to succeed Dove. George Lean
der was setting the pace, which was the
slow. monotonous grind with which the
greater part of a six-day race Is worked
out. Suddenly Dove shot ahead of Leander.
and Breton, who was well to the rear,
pulled his wheel up on the curve at the
Fourth avenue bend of the track and down
the incline into the lead.

HANLoN FOR WASHINGTON
American League Said to Be After
Managers Services.

Joe Villa, sporting editor of the New York
Sun, has been acting as the mouthpiece of
the American League in the east for the
past three years. He stands very close to
President Johnson, and for this reason the
following article taken from this morn
ing's Sun, is very important:
When the base ball magnates of the Ma
tional League convene at the Victoria Ho-
tel today for their annual meeting they
will be surprised to learn, no doubt, that
their great rival, the American League,
has a coup on hand of big proportions. Ban
johnson was in Washington last Saturday
where deal was put through some time
ago by which 7. j. LOTUS got out of the
Senatorial club. 1t is the aim of the Amer
lean League men to bolster up it's affairs
in that city prior to the believed inevita-
BILE combination with the National League
looking to the formation Of twelYe-club
circuit.
How would Edward Hanlon. former
manager of the champion BaltimoreS, and
at present manager OF the Brooklyns fit in
as the owner and manager Of the Wash
ington American League club? This is not
an idle question, but The Sun is in posi-
ton to say that the plan has been dis
cussed by several of the biggest men in
the American League, with the result that
a definite proposition of some sort may Dc
made to Hanlon at any, moment THOSE or
the American League who want Hanlon
say it would be a paying venture to give
him the Washington club, lock, stock and
barrel, gratis. Washington has never had
a winner. and with Hanfon in control there
the argument is set forth the American
League would strengthen its weakest
point Hanlon has been receiving salary
of $4,000 a year from the Brooklyn club,
in which he holds 10 per cent of the stock,
but he Is not under written contract.
