Chas. Keith has always had great
reputation as a gardner, says the
Brookings Press, but this year he has
eclipsed himself on his speciality
tomatoes. He still has ripe tomatoes
from his own garden, fresh ones aud
not canned, which IL pretty good for
the first of December. When the
frost threatened last month he took
his tomatoe vines into the cellar aud
placed them on a self, where the
green tomatoes have been ripening
ever since, If he is in a hurry he
picks a few and puts them in a sunny
window upstairs, where they lipen in
a few hours.

KAVANAUCH WINS
IN HIS CONTENTION
Protested Against Negotiations for
Purchase of Pitcher Watts By
Little Rock.

Cincinnati, o., May 3.-In announcing
two decisions by the National Baseball
commission 1t is announced that THE
commission holds that ineligible players
cannot be reinstated as national agree
ment players without prior punishment
or fine; nor can negotiations for their re-
lease be entered into by clubs in which
such players belonged until they have
been properly reinstated..
This decision was announced because the
name of Player Broderick of the Harris
burg team, who had violated his agree
ment with the Brooklyn club, appeared
in the list of players for whose release
Brooklyn tried to negotiate.
The protest of President aI<vanaugh of
the Southern league, against negotiations
between Brooklyn and the Little Rock
clubs for the purchase by the latter of
Pitcher Watts is sustained. Watts was
drafted from Little Rock and partly
paid for by Brooklyn and President KAY
anaugh maintained that the National
league team had no right to dispose of
Watts services until full title to that
player had been secured and the COM
mission declares this contention to be
correct The Brooklyn club is said to have
acquieseed in both decisions.
