Always keep the very best. earliest
hatched and thriftlest birds for your
eggs producers and breeders. Most
farmers are in the habit Of selling their
earliest Matched and best developed
birds to the hucksters because they are
In good demand and bring a good price,
not thinking that such actions will
very soon produce evil results, because
breeding from late hatched pullets and
cockerels for a few years will very
soon degenerate a flock of good birds.

A Chicago seed firm has a new wrin-
kle in what is called seeded string"
This is nothing more or less than a
tissue paper string filed with seeds Of
different garden plants. In place now
of planting seeds by guess out of the
hand one can just lay a string of let
tuce or radish in the furrow and cover
IN less time than it takes to tell. The
rows can be kept straight in this man
ner and cultivation made easier, it is
said.

The man who tested his corn thor
oughly before planting will not only
get a larger crop at cribbing time, but
will derive satisfaction every day he
cultivates the crop, from the fact that
he himself and the land he works are
realizing a fair return on the degree
of fertility and effort that are respect
lively invested.

If there are any draughts OF air
along the floor of the barn or stable,
the cause may be the openings near the

Sell the COW from your dairy herd

In using tarred papers for roofs, con-
sideration must be given the fact that
unless the paper be securely fastened,
so that the wind can not get under 1t,
the roof may be destroyed during the
prevalence of a very high wind. Paper
roofs are excellent, provided they are
properly put on.

Everything possible should be done
In the orchard and garden during the
fall and winter. A good knife or prun-
ing shears should be carried SO as to
thin vines and trees whenever an OPP
portunity occurs. Old wood needs to
be taken out and the new wood shaped
for the following year.

The Cincinnati National Team
Is At Athletic Park This
Afternoon.
A GOOD CROWD is OUT.
CAPTAIN JEsSUP AND. BOB
EWING ARE OLD TIME FRIENDS,
STARTING THEIR CAREERS AT
THE SAME PLACE.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
eyes of Richmond fandom are directed
toward the worlds base ball champion
ship series in Chicago, a large crowd
is at Athletic park this afternoon wit
Messing the game between the Rich
mond aggregation of ball tossers and
the Cincinnati Reds. Cincinnati arriv-
ed in Richmond with a strong lineup,
but Notwithstanding tbs, the local
team was hopeful. Before the game
Capt. Jessup made the assertion that
Richmond was going into the game to
win and local fans hoped to see the
high score chalked on their side of
the ledger. Weaver could not be in
duced to return to Richmond for the
Cincinnati game and Richmond pre-
scented the same lineup as it did last
ed to be in center field.
When Bob Ewing, the famous
Red pitcher arrived in Richmond to-
day there was warm greeting be-
tween him and Capt. Jessup of the To-
cal team. Both men started their car
GERS in the base ball world at Wapa-
koneta, O., several years ago. Jessup
at that time caught Ewing and they
were great friends. Ewing while sit
ting underneath the grandstand one
day told his comrades that some day
he would be pitching in a big league
and all his teammates at that time
would look up to him and eagerly read
in the newspapers accounts of his sue
cess lie being said in jocular vein
the matter was then taken as joke.
Ewing bears a scar on one of his
binds where Jessup once cut him
with a knife while the two were scuffl.

Chicago Oct. S.--The opening game
of the worlds championship baseball
series today will probably be played
under a clear sky, but with a tempera-
ture too low to be entirely comfortable
to spectators. According to predic-
tons a stiff wind will blow across the
diamond from the northwest and the
mercury, which fell sixteen degrees
Monday afternoon, will probably stand
in the fifties.
That a record-breaking crowd will be
on hand to witness the contest is evil
denced by the enthusiasm everywhere
apparent, the games being the chief
topic of conversation on every hand.
Reserved seats have all been sold
out for weeks, and the grounds were
thrown open at noon to care for the
rush for the remaining seats.
Pitchers Selected.
Three pitchers on each side will be
depended upon by their clubs, accord
ing to present plans for the series.
Manager Chance figured upon using
Overall in the first game, Pfeister in
the second and Reulbach or Brown
in the third, returning Overall
for the fourth game if he pitches good
ball in the opening contest. Lund-
gren and Fraser will be held in reserve.
Hugh Jennings, manager Of the De-
troit team, planned to start the strug-
gle with Donovan in the box. George
