Pullman farming is
being more generally practiced
through the Palouse country each
season from the fruit, the poultry
and the dairying have done much
to extend the diversified farming
into all sections. The results of the
past few years have clearly demon
strated the advantages Of the diver
sified farm, and a comparison of the
earnings of an equal number Of
acres under equal conditions has
shown the diversified plan to bring
the owner approximately double the
, amount possible to secure from any
single crop.

SEALS LEAVE ONCE MORE
FOR TRAINING QUARTERS
Rainfall Temporarily Delays
Work on New Baseball
Grounds

The 1907 aggregation Of Seals bid
a cheerful farewell to Fillmore street
last evening and boarded a train for
Bakersfield. For ten days they will
go after the hard work at the training
camp. returning here to rest a couple
of days before the season opens on
March 30.
OF course every man on the salary
list of Long and Gleason was sorry
that he did not have a chance to show
the fans what he could do against
McGraw's Giants. Failure in this re-
gard was a bitter disappointment, and
the futile trip to the city involved a
nice item of expense for the local mag
mates to meet, but II is all over now,
and nobody is "hollering."
Long did not go with the team this
time. He has confidence In the abil-
ity of Captain Mohler to round the
stars into form from now on. Long
will be kept fairly busy for the next
few days arranging for opening day.
The rain came down so fast all day
yesterday that it was impossible for
the workmen to do anything at the
new park. The field was a lake, so
when Jack" Gleason had pulled up
there early in the morning he quickly
said goodby and informed the few
workmen who appeared that they
could have twenty-four hour vaca-
ton.
Long said yesterday that the chance
of any team in the league procuring
the services of Pitcher Fred Brown
was slim. Some angel has staked
Brown to q Cigar store in Sacramento.
He also is in line for place on the
Capital City team of the State league,
so he will hardly pass up such an op-
portunity In order to play in the
big league Manager Berry of Los
Angeles doubtless Is not aware OF
this. He left for the south on Sun
day night. confident that he would
have Browns signature to a contract
before many days had elapsed.
Long gave him permission to sign the
young twirler IL he could come to
terms with him. Berry already has
Brown down on his list OF box artists.
Four OF the members of the ex-
ploded Fresno team-Dashwood, Mac
Gregor, Fitzgerald and Garvin-are
still to be placed. The league has paid
the salaries of these men up to the
middle of next month. Unless the
magnates find jobs for them lne quar-
tet will be entitled to draw a regular
monthly allowance Under such cir
cumstances. IL Is not at all likely
that the boys will be idle very long.

BRITT PIN|NG FOR co
WITH CANS Or NELSON
Jimmy Says He Would Like
to Take On the Dane
at an Early Date

Jimmy Britt forsook the solitude OF
beautiful Marin County yesterday and
invaded Fillmore street. Jimmy had
plenty to say, but the principal line
of talk that he handed out was about
Cans and Nelson, either of whom, he
said, he would take a chance against
in a hurry.
Jimmy does not hesitate to announce
that he wants Nelson more than he
does Cans. However. he wanted 1t un-
derstood that he would not shirk a
match with the chocoiate-colored cham
pion. adding that it was his Intention
to fight the latter after disposing OF
Nelson.
Britt is eager for a fight in this city
He will not travel to Nevada II there
is q chance to get on here. He be-
lieves that April or May will be the
proper time for him to show.
This old talk of Cans wanting a
bonus does not go here" said Britt.
Maybe he can get away with 1t in
Nevada, but 1 still stand pretty well
around this town and 1 think that
am entitled to as much as Mr.. Cans
any time we sign up for fight.
IT have said all along that I was
willing to sign with Nelson. Now let
the match be made and everything will
be all right want this light II theirs
is a chance. The people Of San Fran
cisco probably would patronize It more
literally than any other that could be
put on here"
Just what Nelson will say to propo-
sition like this cannot be determined
now. The Dane is taking life easy.
He has all the money and glory he
wants for the present and does not
have to worry about nghting. That his
manager, Billy Nolan, is not In a hurry
to do business with the Britts until
certain financial differences are adjusted
is shown by the fact that, although he
has been In town several days, he has
not called to pay his respects to either
willis or James.
Tex Rickard. the Goldheld pro-
moter, arrived In town yesterday from
the northern part OF the State. Tex is
here on mining business this time, but
he may be able to work UP enough en-
thusiasm to start something in the
fight line.

A well-balanced card has been pro-
vided for Emeryville racegoers today
There is material in 1t for several in
teresting contests, despite the condi-
tion of the course.
Wilmore looks best in the opening
race, with Braggart and Jeremiah as
the likely contenders.
In the second Lord Nelson and The
Reprobate should make a battle royal
of ii. Both are in fine fettle and relish
the going.
Confessor should have no trouble In
winning the third, although If Orchan
comes to life he will be dangerous.
Sheen is the likeliest of the balance.
Watchful may be able to repeat In
the fourth, as Ed Sheridan does not
appear to like a wet track.
The fifth will be the best race of the
day. st. Francis is carrying more
weight than in his recent races, but
is so much the class that he should
win. Several of the contenders appear
to be evenly matched.
Lord of the Forest showed a high
turn of speed in his last race with high
class company. and may be able to
win the closing race.

Many Warned at

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO TIE CALL

STANFORD UNIVERSITY. March 1s.
The regular midsemester swing of the
scholarship ak today severed the con-
nection with the university of five stu
dents and awoke fifteen others to the
fact that only a decided improvement
in their academic standing would per-
nit OF their retention as members of
the student body.

as a funk" and a shade less severe
than a strict probation" were dis
tributed. and coun ntless Smoke ups"
notices of deficiencies In particular SUBJ
jects went through the mall. More
than $50 of the latter were handed out
by Professor Gilbert's committee.
Happily, the ranks of the athletes
were untouched by the scholarship
powers. Since the awful havoc at the
close OF last semester. when point
winners on the track and baseball men
were ''fiunked" right and left, the cam
pus has awaited in fear and trembling
the next onslaught. However, 1t was
given out from the registrars ONCE
this afternoon that not an athlete had
been "hunked" or put on strict pro-
bation," either. of which would have
barred him from further participation
