Batting Averages Of Hrattleboro Athletics.

The Brattleboro Independents have
made arrangements to play two games
with Northfield Labor day on the North
field diamond.
Bondville will be here again next
Saturday, and the game will be called
at 4. The attendance last Saturday was
the largest at any game this season eX-
cept on the afternoon of Memorial day.
The hard-fought game of last week, with
victory seemingly assured snatched from
Bondville, will make all the fans anxious
to see the crack team from up the line
have another try at the Athletics.

the hose cart will be Bert Caldwell, j.
Walker, I. Walker, ]. McCaughern and
Sam Currier This team has made fast
time in practice and hopes to get a share
of money against the speediest hose COM
panies of the country.
Two games have been arranged for
Monday, Labor day, with Keene as the
opposing team. The series between Keene
and the Athletics stands two victories
for each club, and there will be nerve
straining for victory at the next two
meetings, Cooley and Ellis will pitch for
box for Keene in one of the games The
playing will begin at 1890 and $50.
Dan Riley will be in fast company in
the sprints at Athol Labor day. Metz of
Turner'S Falls, who is coaching the Athol
hose team, will have a try in the dashes.
He is 10-second man and 1t Is claimed
the watch has been held on him under
that figure.
The winning Saturday was nape-of the

Ond the team apparently faced forlorn
hope with Cooley at the bat, as he
had previously struck out. Cooley
caught squarley Evans's intended drop
just before the break, and the result was
one of the longest drives seen on the
grounds this season. Cooley had been
pitching finely. and he rose to the ordeal
in just the right way to win his own
game. Evans, who pitched so we'll for
Bondville, is a brother of James Evans

Bondvllle's cherished hopes for the
championship of Southern Vermont rose
high last Saturday on the island when, in
the fifth inning a dazzling display of wild
throwing by the Athletics gave Bondville
three runs. But aspirations vanished in
the ninth when a three-base meteor flew
from Coley's bat, Swimming the distant
horizon of left field, and bringing IN the
run that broke the tie and won the game.
The fun began when the Brattleboro boys
took the stick. Although Evans is one
of the best pitchers they have faced this
season, the first round netted the local
players three clean hits-a single by
March, and doubles by Davis and john
son-resulting in runs for March and Da-
Wis. The next two innings were fast and
steady, marked only by lucky one-hand
catch by the Bondville second baseman,
spelling L. Aliens hit In the fourth
Johnson returned the favor by a double
quick, back-action catch, squeezing
Evans's close centrefield fly, although his
long reach caused him to fall. II.
williams made a clean drive to right field
that looked good for third base, but was
put out in attempting to make 1t. In
the fifth with two men gone j. Williams
made a single, reached second on L. AL
lens wild throw to first and arrived at
third on a passed ball. Bush drew base
on balls and stole second. Wheeler hit
hard and touched off the pin wheel; the
Bondville players circling the diamond
while the infield INDUCED in a shooting

With the bases cleared, Cooley allowed
only one hit during the rest of the game
and struck out eight men. The Athletics
tried hard to score in the eighth but fail

took the bat in the ninth. Johnson reach

TO SATISFY JUDGMENT

AT Paloa, Kan, the domestic irfelicity
of John Smith and his wife, Dora, caus-
ed Sheriff Thomas Redd to depart from
his usual routine of duty and to adopt
the role OF farmer. He and his deputy,
Anthony English, have been threshirg
to collect Mrs. Smiths alifnony. About
two years ago the troubles Of the
Smiths. who lived on farm in Marais
Fdes Cygnes river bottoms, six miles
southeast of here, began. Mrs. Smith
fled suit for divorce on the grounds
of extreme cruelty She was granted
a divorce and given share in the
property However, her husband was
loatl to give up any of his possessions,

force the collection. The court order
ed the sheriff to levy on the wheat crop.
After hearing Smith was allowed to
keep 100 bushels. With his deputy,
Sheriff Redd began to thresh. They
got along very we'll until a horshoe
concealed in one of the sl,eaves Of
wheat broke the concaves of the ma
chinery, which caused d delay Of two
days. Finally the machinery was re-
paired and rs bushels were tfreshed,
WHICH was only enough TO pay the costs

VALUE OF DRAGGING
PLOWED LANDS SHOWN

Gundy Center, Ia, JAM 2o. TO The
Forum: AS 4 am Interested in the
success Of North Dakota, wish to call
attention to the practice which has
been followed in some sections thar
has proved Of great value to the farm-
.ers. This may not be as important
ito the Red river valley as to the por-
lions outside OF ii. Many of the good
farmers scattered all through the cen
Itral west have learned in the last year
that good and thorough farming pays
..doirble for the extra labor put upon
.plowed land and one cf the most I'M
.portart features Of this work is to drag
all land as soon as plowed. whether the
-piowing is done in the fall or in The
spring, and also to drag the land at
least twice as much at the time of
seeding as heretofore. In conse-
qience Of this practice they often get
double the crop that they otherwise
would obtain and some times the in
crease is even larger and there is no
more expense 10 harvest the double
crop.
"A friend of mine, who has four sec
Etiors, tells me that he stops blowing
early enough iii the afternoon to drag
Ahat day all the land that has been
plowed, and he does this in order to re-
tain the moisture, as it gives dust
mulchirlg on top which prevents evap-
0ration. Your farmers may be try
ing this to some extent, but + know
from what have seen, that it is a
very desirable practice and / there
fore send this note to- The Forum, real
izing its extensive circulation In the
state, ii the hope that the suggestion
may prove Of value and your state be-
come even more noted than it has been
in the pasts for good farming and sue
