The ball game between Bax-
ter and Scammon, at this place
Sunday, was not played, on ac-
count of the Scammon team not
coming. The train which the
team was to come on was delayed
at Scammon by a freight wreck,
and by the time the wreck was
cleared away it was thought it
would be too late for a game.
A large crowd was out to the
park to witness the game, and it
was a badly disappointed crowd
which came back to town, after
the train came in without the
Scammon team. Tickets were
given out at the gate for next
Sundays game between Galena
and Baxter.

BATTLE ROYAL In BUFFALO
Germans Win From Oregons In Hot
Game By Close Score of
% to 20.

The Buffalo Germans can still lay
claim to the basketball championship
of the world, although they had to
struggle desperately to retain their
laurels in the game with The Oregons,
Wednesday night. The score, as tele-
graphed to Dallas yesterday morning,
stood 23 to 20, leaving the Germans,
by the scant margin of only three
points, the possessors of the title they
have held for years.
Few teams entour have ever before
had the temerity to match themselves
against the redoubtable Germans and
the Dallas five has certainly done
amazingly we'll, considering all cir
cumstances-fa better in fact than
any of the teams that have preceded
it and defeat of that sort is one over
which neither the players nor their
supporters should feel dismayed.
From Buffalo, the Oregons will
swing back unto the second half of
their tour, playing in Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois, and the states of the Middle
West.

WOULD CUT DOWN ACREAGE
James Myer Believes In Concerted
Effort of Hop Growers To
Reduce Yield.

Speaking from a growers stand
point, James W. Myer, prominent
hop man of Polk county and owner Of
100 acres Of fine hop lands, recon-
mends that the growers of the Will
lamette valley use some concerted
action and plow up portion Of their
fields.
IL know of several yards that are
being plowed up" said Mr.. Myers,
"and I myself have plowed up Is acres
Of hop lands. I do not believe it
would profit a farmer to quit the hop
business entirely. I think that would
be mistake, but if every hop man in
the county would cut down little on
the size of his crop the market next
year would show more than enough
difference to yield a monster revenue.
81 think in Polk county there are
altogether $50 acres which have been
plowed up and there will probably be
more. There certainly should be a
big amount of work in both counties
for the personal benefit of the hop
growers. Statesman.
