1909 finds him behind the bat again or ne chooses
70 spend his time on the coaching line, St LOUIS
will ind his services Of much value. and It IS prop
able that the Cardinals may have higher place
in the pennant race
In place of Bresnahan the Giants get Raymond
Murray and schIei. Bugs Raymond IS a young
pitcher and the only department of the game IA
which he held first place last season was IN Wlo
pitches Of which he made nine He played IN
fortv-eight games, fifteen OF them and lost
twenty-five This record Is not as poor as II
seems on the surface. for Raymond was with
miserable team-n fact, the laughing stock OF tne
League Five of his games were shutouts and ne
famed 145 batters during the season HIS neldlns
average was .93s but. like many pitchers. he Is
weak with the bat. ending the season with an
average Of .189. McGraI undoubtedly thinks ne

season his batting average was .2S2 for 15 games.

of the time Murray played in centre field and the
rest in right field He is not an especially good
fielder his average being only -s15. Perhaps Nc
C,rszT intends to use him In left field. where the
Giants were especially weak this year.
Schlei is not in a class with Bresnahan az a
catcher He has mons of Rogers ability as
leader Schlei is steady catcher, with nothing
fashv or sensational about his work. Last year
he PLAYED in eighty-eight games for a fielding
average of .962 and q batting average of go. or
81 points below that of Bresnahan. If McGraW
intends to depend upon Needham, Schlei and Snod-
grass FOR his catchers, many believe that he will
have q weak collection of backstops. but there
were those q year go who found fault with Nc
c,raw's trade with Boston only TO learn when the

Statistics give evidence that one of
the big leaks for which residents OF
agricultural communities have to stand
good results from the loss sustained in
the hauling of produce to market over
bad roads, Being one of the necessary
items of expense. that of hauling is
sort of taken for granted. little account
being given by the average farmer to
the annual tax which he pays under
the head of hauling expense. On roads
which are likely to be bad in spots
from ton to a ton and half is a good
load for the average team Where
roads are in first class shape hard and
smooth. and vehicles of sufficient ca
pacity this load could be increased
from 60 to 100 per cent with virtually
no increase in cost of moving. This
matter is one in which every grower
OF stock or produce is vitality interested
