Life is but baseball game.
The worlds the playing field;
We work and strive the best we know
The most earned runs to yield.
Errors and missed chances.
And hard flies we let fall.
Just help to make up better play
The game of life's baseball.

INDIAN COTTON PICKERS
Red Men Come to Valley to Help Gather Crop. Cotton Price
 Takes Downward Turn.

Forty-two Indian cotton pickers have arrived in the valley from Ari- zona and are work in fields in the vicinity of Calexico. Another band of seventy-five is expected to arrive to- day, and some Hindus are coming down from the north in few days. There will be work enough in the fields from now to the end of the year for all the pickers now in the valley and for several hundred more. One dollar hundred pounds was the rate of wages agreed upon by the growers as fair when the industry was started That is twenty-five per cent. above the rate paid in the south, and expert pickers can make good wages at a dollar a hundred The Indians and Hindus will receive that rate, but if growers think they can afford to pay more to white laborers, there is no reason why they should not do so.
 Up to last Thursday night, 316 bales of cotton had been turned out at the Fl Centro gin. The present average is about 15 bales a day, which is less than the full acpacity of the gin. The Calexico gin was started last Monday, but no report of it's output has been received at the office of the company. The Brawley and Holtvilfc oinc aro aho,1t roodv fo boo;p 0,oro tions.

Paper Company FOresters Cruise Eaton
TimberIaRds on st. CrOix.

While the Eaton timberlands on the
st. Croix river have not yet been sold
to one of the largest paper companies,
as reported, it is more than probable
they will pass into the hands of paper
interests before the SHOWS of the com
ing winter have left the banks of the
river to the eastward. The Eaton tim
berlands, of great extent and value,
are among the richest in the State.
The growth Is heavy and in many sec
tions of the holdings no saw or axe
has ever been introduced. 1t was
made known in the Office of H. F. Ea-
ton & Sons, Calais, recently, that
about 100000 acres of this land are
now being cruised by paper company
foresters, and that the complete esti-
mate will have been made by the first
of December. On this timberland the
St. Croix Paper Co. interests have an
option until the early part of the
according to the option, it will include
all the Eaton business interests on the
ST Croix river, including the lumber
mills and valuable water power priv
ileges at Milltown and at the Union.
If this sale is made, and it is almost
sure to be concluded, it will mean a
new epoch for the st. Croix valley,
9nd especially for the city of Calais
That city, which has seen the gradual
decline of a once flourishing lumber
business, will become paper town,
and in all probability the saw mill
will become hing of the past Sew
eral years ago the International Pa
per company built large and finely
equipped pulp and paper mill at
Woodland, seven miles above Calais
and since that time rumor has had it
annually that the company was about
to purchase the large Eaton timber
land interests. There has never been
an option until now, however, for the
Eaton concern, of which Hon. George
II. Eaton, State senator. Is the senior
member, has positively refused to en-
tertain the idea of becoming separat-
ed from its holdings. Now that the
International Paper Co. Is in fair
way to secure this large tract of tim
berland 1t Is undoubtedly its purpose
to erect another large paper mill
probably at the Union, a part OF
Calais. Down east people will await
the verdict with interest, for the de-
cision of the company will mean much
to the future of the interests of the
community.
