a game, that | was not working and
working hard. I watched every move
the pitchers made, saw how they
pitched to certain hatters, studied the
hatters as they came along, and by
watching how different pitchers pitched
to them began to learn things. Every
time a pitcher came along and did
something that I thought would help
me I studied out how he did it. Many
mornings, before the rest Of the club
came out TO practice, / would get a
ball and go to work hard, trying to
learn the trick / had seen some other

three years TO get my balk motion, and

not call it a balk. I learned that
trick from Clark Griffith, and | used

No one knew what I was up to, |

in practice I was pitching to batters,
and Just for practice ] tried the mo-
tiop a few times. Comiskey came run

again. Then he had me do it again,
and that afternoon I went in to pitch,

had to work hard to get good spit
ball, although pitching it came natural
for me. After I learned it and got 1t
under control 7 worked for long weeks
teaching it to do tricks. Then ] was
ready. 1t took three solid years OF
hard work and waiting and study to
make me a pitcher. IF 7 had not been
willing and ambitious to stay up in the
business I still would be shooting
around the minor leagues.
That is the way a ball player must
do If he is going to get above the
this because I think some of the young
fellows do not understand the import
ance Of working and constant studying
OF every part of the game. I want
to say. too, that the period of working
and studying helped to develop me as
man as well as ball player.
A player must put all his heart and
all his brain as well as his feet and
hands into the battle, and work all the
time. If his heart and mind are not
in the game, he is not a winner. A
fellow must forget everything except
that ball game, that one batter who
may turn 1t, and think and work to
win and keep up with the progress OF
the game.

KILLING DUCKS FOR MARKET
Two Coed methods Are Being Sue.
eessfuiiy Used by Some Of the
Largest Raisers.

There are two methods OF dressing
ducks for market. by dry picking and
by soal6ing. Both of these methods
are good and are being successfully
employed by the largest raisers. Some
have preference for dry picking
AID Others for scalding. and IT be
comes only q matter of taste which
method is used. When birds are
dressed by scaIding. they should be
dipped several times. or until the
feathers come out easily. The back
should be dipped in the water first.
After scalding, wipe them as dry as
possible with sponge and pick the
breast feathers first.
A bird when dressed for market
has left on 1t the feathers on the
wing. the tail feathers and the feath-
ers on head and neck. The legs are
left on. and generally. the birds are
not drawn.
The process Of dry picking is con-
sidered the simpler of the two meth.
DDS, and one who Is accustomed to
the work can readily dress three dog
en- birds a day. The picker's outfit
consists of a chair, box for the

feathers and a couple Of knives, one
knife being dull and the other being
sharp-pointed ard double-edged for
bleeding. The bird is taken between
the knees. the bill held open with the
left hand. and a cut made across the
roof Of the mouth just below the
e, es. The bird is then stunned by
striking its head against a post or
some hard substance. The picker
seats himself In the chair with the
bird in his lap, its head held firmly
between one knee and the box. The
feathers are carefully sorted while
picking; the pinfeathers are thrown
away and the body feathers with the
down are thrown into tne box Care
should be taken about this. as the
feathers from each bird will weigh
about two ounces and will quite pay
for the picking.
The dull knife and the thumb are
used 70 remove the long pinfeathers.
| and this should be done without tear
ing the skin The down can usually
be rubbed Off by slightly moistening
the hand and holding the skin tight.
Often some OF the pin feathers can
not be taken out without tearing and
disfiguring the sixth: when such is the
case they should shaved OF. Seven
or eight minutes is all the time neces-
sary to dress a bird
After the birds are picked they
should be carefully washed and
pumped by placing in a tank or bar
rel of ice water. They are hardened
in this ice water and given round
ed and full appearance.
They are then packed in barrels
or boxes and shipped to market. The
first or bottom layer Is packed with
backs down: layer of ice is then
placed over them, and all other lay
ers are packed with the breasts
down. la. err Of ice being ever each
layer of ducks. The top Of he box
or barrel is then rounded of with ice
and covered with burlap. A barrel
will hold about three dozen birds.
