Under the terms of the contract
which the Utah Consolidated Mining
Co. entered into late in 1908 for the
smelling of it's ores for period of
years, the company should commence
this month to ship its ore to the new
Tooele plant of the International
Smelling & Refining Co. now nearing
completion. The contract runs for 10
years from April 1, 1910, and provides
for the daily treatment of 1900 tons
of ore at cost which we understand
is $3.50 cents per ton less than that
charged at the Garfield smelter Of the
American Smelling & Refining Co.

pevlin as a wonderful third baseman
and a hard hitter. AT the same time
Roger Bresnahan came to the front as
q great catcher as well as hard hit
ter. That wonderful increase in play
ing power with veterans like Donln,
McGann. Dahlen, Browne and Gilbert
to back them up, sent the Giants to the
top like q shot
Chicago followed on the heels of the
Giants as champions from the sudden
development of Miner Brown as IL
great ritchor- lie had worked in st,
Louis before, but had never been re-
gar,iod Az u wonderful artist in the
box. Then .Johmnv tvers suddenly
poked his head above all others AS a
second base9nan and a thinker ON the
base lines. Joe Tinker was on the 9TH
cr side Of tile diamond to hold him in
balance. ITp went the Cubs, and to-
ward the end of the season the PEN
nant became easy. A trade also helped
Chicago, in that it gave them Stein
felot NJ third ana Sheckard in left
field. These two veterans held things
safe while the youngsters forged to tile
top.
Pittsburg rose the first time on the
shoulders of Hans Wagner, Tommy
Leach and Fred Clarke. With the same
men on the team it fell. Their return
t, the championship last season was
the result of the Sudden and uneX-
pected development Of younger tai
ent. Johnny Miller filed the gap at
second base. Hyatt came forward as n
great pinch hitter ana Adams stepped
out as a pitching marvel. Toward the
end of the season Adams practically
carried the Pittsburg team on his
shoulders. In the early part of the sea-
son he was used as 4 game saver.
What he did during the worlds series
is well known.
AS q further proof of the assertion
that it is the development of young
Sters that brings a team out of the rut
we might point to the Boston Ameri
cans, From the bott0m they came up
on the shoulders Of Speaker. This
youngster proved himself one of the
best hitters that ever broke into the
big leagues. and il was que 10 this
sudden development OF strength that
the Boston Americans began to climb.

Mike Kelley. formerly n member of the
Augusta team of the New England
league. will again manage the St, Paul
team the coming season. Three years ago
Mike managed this team and landed the
pennant of the American Association
A falling out with Owner Lennon led him
to seek new fields with disastrous re-
the tail-ender in the Association for the
two seasons following his departure
The situation led Mr.. Lennon last season
to patch up his differences with Kelley,
and again secure the services of his old
manager. 1t was difficult problem that
Mike faced but he succeeded in pulling
his team out of last place and landing
1t fifth in list of eight clubs. He ex-
poets to do considerably better the COM

st. Joseph, Mo-, Feb. 25.-During
the past few months about a hundred
families from the night rider districts
of Kentucky have moved to northwest
Missouri to take up the cultivation of
tobacco. About two years ago extern
sive experiments proved that this sec
ton is adapted to tobacco culture. Last
year two million pounds of tobacco
was raised in Platte county and about
500, 900 in Cay county. During the
present year thousands of acres of to-
baeco will be cultivated and Kentucky
families are moving here to teach the
native farmers the best methods of
culture. At present Weston, Mo-, is
the center Of the tobacco business
Hundreds of tobacco barns are being
built and many farmers are growing
five to ten acres. The average profit
is about $500 an acre. Dearborn, De-
kalb and Maryville are other tobacco
centerS.
