Once more the pitchers in the Con- necticut league worked a week of famine in hits and every club in the league suffered except Hartford. There are still ten men in the 300 class, but only three failed to lose ground. Rising got back to first place with Maggert tumbling down from his high average of a week ago. Jimmy o'Rourke retires from the league to faster company with rec ord of .31S and in third place Two men improved their average during the week, Simmons of New Haven and Padron of New Britain. Dolan did not play, so his percentage re- mains the same. The list:

Team Batting,

Hartford was the only team to do much batting business last week. and as a result it jumps over the heads Of several teams into first place. Springfield fell on considerably, but at that was able to win most of it's games. In seven contests the team scored twelve runs and yet it won i've, while one was a tie.

roaming in the fields. breathing the
pure fresh air. and then think how
changed are the conditions when they
come to be shut up In tight barns for
such long portion OF the year, It be-
comes evident that the tendency must
be toward weakness and disease. So
II stands us in hand to make the con
ditions just as nearly like those OF
summer as we can, That Is, we should
do our best to give the stock good
feed. feed that shall be nourIshing,
and at the same time plenty Of air
that is free from disease germs
1t must be that great deal Of the
sickness, such as tuberculosis, comes
from breathing the same air over and
over again In the close stables OF our
country.
BY running n board shaft from the
stable very near TO the floor clear up
TO the roof, we may take n good deal
Of the impure air out. You know
that air that has been breathed once
becomes heavier than It is at first
There are loads OF impurity in simply

This pure air ought not to come in
so that the cattle must stand all the

be arranged so that they may furnish

these windows ought to be windows

You will hear some men argue that

seems to me that these men do not
take very reasonable view of the
matter. Just look at cattle that are
not thus cared for. The minute they
are out In the yard they begin to rub,

every fence post or anything else they
can get to, as II their hides were in

And such things pay, for the work the

Roosevelt So Informs Widow In a
Letter.
OYSTER BAY, n. Y, July 10
President Roosevelt has written a
letter to Mrs. Grover Cleveland in
forming her of a proclamation he has
signed changing the name of the San
Jacinto national forest to the Cleye-
land national forest in honor of the
late former president The letter
follows:
OYSTER BAY. n. Y, July 10.
19Os.-My Dear Mrs. Cleveland: II
has recently been my privilege to sign
a proclamation changing the name of
the San Jacinto national forest to the
Cleveland national forest May ex-
press to you the very great pleasure
II gave me to take that action, a
pleasure mingled with a keen sense
of the loss to our country and to our
citizens In the death of President
Cleveland On February %, 1897,
President Cleveland signed the proc
lamatiOn creating the San Jacinto
forest reserve in southern California
The date. February %. was no mere
accident. since the signature of the
proclamation was timed TO coincide
with the birthday of our first presi-
dent.
President Cleveland was one OF
the first TO recognize the need OF for
est preservation. and tie creation Of
the San Jacinto and other forest re-
serves, with a total area of 25.6g6.S20
acres. was one of the results OF his
foresight in that direction Through
out his life he took great interest In
conserving the national resources Of
the nation. and | particularly regret
ted his inability to attend the meet
ing OF the governors in May. because
that meeting was in part the fruit OF
seed he had sown years ago The
name OF Grover Cleveland win al
ways be prominently identified with
the movement TO protect the forests
Of the United States and II seemed
to me eminently fitting that one of
the reserves which he created should
bear his name throughout all time.
Sincerely yours.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
