SeIden and GOOdIand Played Ban at
Athletic Park Last Sunday

Athletic Park Last Sunday.
Although the GoOdIand Athletics
saw victory in the air al through the
game they played with Selden at
Athletic Park Sunday. the visitors
nevertheless seemed to play to the
limit Of their ability and pleased eT-
erybOdy. The Selden boys didn't slOp
over or make any grandStand plays
and they killed on many Of our play
ers on way to first base The contest
was like q good little small man
wrestling with a big fellow making
him mind his p's and as or be IN
danger OF being dOWned- Selden
certainly made the Athletics WaUch
out. yet GoOdland knew she had the
game grabbed all right
Pitcher Morehead, foxy, and busy
with his head as with his whip, was
scarcely ever seen TO pitch better ball
than on Sunday He went through
without any Knockout blows from
Selden sluggers, and whenever he had
TO, he made them lay down their bats
at the plate.
Some OF the plays, calculated to
happen, did 50 happen, and the Ath-
letics have really reduced the science
OF base ball TO so perfect practice that
il is enjoyable to watch the machtn-
cry Of their organization GOOdiand
was at bat, had a man on first and
second, and before the pitcher deliv-
cred the ball, first started to run to
second to invite attack Sure enough
Selden began to round him up by put
ting the ball to first base Just then
the man on second started for third
This complicated the attack, the ball
next going to second and then to third
without any result whatever, the play
advancing both men one base. Selden
tried this same game, but lost one
man in the attempt. One pretty bout
in the game was the race Of Trimble,
i tland-and-staTt at third, with the ball,
ny caught sent home from the mighty
arm of Friday in center field. The
runner wriggIed and tTeddled the
earth hard as he could. The ball
meanwhile rushed up on him on the
wings Of the atmosphere. And just
as the ball struck the ground in front
Of Catcher MahOney, Trimble rushed
upon the plate
Chase, Germann-in fact several Of
the Athletes-tried hard to put the
ball over the fence as Motz was not
hard to find. There wasn't a home
run in him, however; and only two or
three times did they make the ball
bump up against the fence. Stewart
made a telling twO-base hit in the
eighth inning, bringing home two men
from third and second.

Under the Yoke.

New occupations for American wom-
en- are frequently described in the
household magazines. Meantime many
women of the Old World steadfastly
cling to their old tasks \ traveller with
good eyes may see in single summer
day in Belgium enough to make him
wonder what are really the boundaries
of "woman's sphere
At five O'Clock in the morning he
may see red-cheekeG old woman, d
rude harness over her shoulders, pull
ing. with a big dog for helper, heavy
cart OF vegetables three miles from
garden to market. The cart holds sew
eral bushels of potatoes, carrots, cab
bages, topped by a great bundle of dew
sprinkled roses; and before the woman
and the dog trudge home with it again,
everything will have been sold.
Our traveller may come upon two
muscular women transferring load of
coal from sidewalk to cellar, shoulder
ing the baskets as easily as men would
do. If he fingers to watch them finish
their task, he will see a girl Of sixteen
swing a wooden yoke over her Shout
ders. and carry pail after pail of water
from the town pump, two squares
AWAY, for the scrubbing clean of the
dusty sidewalk.
Three women toss bundles Of oats
upon high cart, and themselves drag
1t up from the field to the yard, where
the grain is to be threshed, and where
later they will build the straw into
symmetrical stacks.
4 great herd of cows cluster round
the mixers in the field, and from the
group the talk and laughter of girls
mingles with the sharp whistle of the
milk in the pals.
So, in the little kingdom of Belgium
where wages are low and taxes are
sigh-women toll at what we have
come to consider work fit only for men.
But 1t must be said that they do not
look unhappy under the yoke. Perhaps
the freedom of farm and market and
street is really better for their peace

which often makes our more fortunate

OF correspondents in the wheat field for
twenty consecutive days. In this way
thousands of miles were travelled by train
through the wheat district, over 1,400
miles were driven through growing wheat,
and SO pivotal points were visited and
observations made. As result of the
work straight announcement is made
that the wheat acreage is 4. 100000; that
the average yield is 10 bushels 70 the
acre; and that the aggregate crop will
reach 9O,25O,OOO.
Bank statements regarding crops are
usually of a dependable character, and
the figures furnished by the Canadian
Rank of Commerce more than endorse
those given by the Free Press. The bank
estimate places the figures at: Wheat,
81. 81. 900: oats, S0,S54,6SO: barley, IT,
735,790. Wherever a good wheat section
exists in Western Canada there is an ele-
vator Cor elevators) and good shipping
point; and where there is good shipping
point, a thriving bank Tor banks) will
be sure to be in the midst of it; and the
local manager of tie bank, who has the
most accurate knowledge of the farming
conditions and crop results, is the man
who usually does the business. Hence
the necessity for careful crop compilation.
Then, there are others who watch the
growing crop with careful eye-the
grain dealers and shippers, for instance.
Winnipeg has Northwest Grain Deal
ers' Association which is so much inter-
ested in the crop return that this year,
accompanied by the city bankers and a
number of American grain dealers, they
made a tour of inspection through the
principal grain areas by special train. The
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1906-09-20

bulletin of the association sizes up the
situation as follows: Wheat, S7,203,00O
bushels: oats. 75,725,600 bushels; barley,
1873, 335.
This is a lower estimate than either of
the others, but we must consider that it
is railway-tour estimate, whilst the
others were made by men in the wheat
Geld, so to speak; and the circumstances
somewhat favor the correspondent and
the local bank manager, respectively, in
his estimate. But there is one point upon
which all agree, and that is that the wheat
crop Of 1906 is of excellent quality
throughout, that it is characteristic of
Western Canada's grain and will grade
high all along the line. On this point
American grain men such as j. +. Whal-
lon of Minneapolis, Finlay Barral of Chi
cago, Sheriff Brainerd of Springfield, ILL.,,
and others, are particularly explicit in
their statements.
A careful examination of all the fg-
ures at present available would lead us
to believe that the yield will probably be
about 100000 bushels. These figures
may seem disappointing to many who be-
lieved that the increased acreage under
