One of the chief reasons for our

results from labor expended upon
them, and when we have them in

landowners combining, and a COM

to lay out the drains where the drain
bitches must be graded to a nicely,
to secure the maximum of capacity
Tor the tiles. Where large amounts
of tile are to be used and the proper
grade of clay is available. it will
probably pay well to purchase a good
tile machine and make those needed
within radiusaof ten or fifteen miles
at some central point, thus saving
freight charges, which add very
largely to the cost of the tile. The
writer knows of several places in the
Central West where tile-making
plants are located and the farmers
within radius of ten to fifteen miles
take millions of the tiles right from
the yard, the hauling being done at
times when other team work is not
pushing. Ten years ago 3-inch tile
could be purchased at the yards at

Drainage in the Hill Country.
Let us run up-country a little way,
now, into the Piedmont country (the
section, by the way, that the writer
expects to live long enough to see
become one of the great live stock
producing sections of America), and
have look at the springy hillsides,
the little cat swamps, the low, wet
valleys between the hills, the swampy
creek and river bottoms, etc., with
which this section abounds. Up here
in my own county want to see many
million feet of tile drain laid within
the next few years. That little mar
row valley full of springs and cut up
in every direction with deep bitches
is going to become the finest land on
your farm, brother farmer, when
strings of tile have taken the place
of the deep bitches and lateral drains
have tapped every wet weather

THAT breezy defeat handed the

badly for the Tigers, as did h weather.
From now on you can expect a different
story. They played good ball yester-
day, aside from the first and Sec

The mere fact that the game was
played in fiv e minutes more than an
hour shows how speedy both teams
travelled. 1t is a safe bet that the Iron
Man vas not warmed up properly, for
in the second inning, with two out, he
walked Mckinley. Following that a
single and a pair of doubles were in
order, and n was by u old friend
Jimmy Mullen. There will be no game
tomorrow but a double bill Saturday.
While Mckinley got away with 1t he
didn't seem to have a whole lot. How
ever, whenever the Tigers hit the ball
the wind kept it long enough In the
atmosphere for the Leafs to judge 1t
properly. Well, today is another day.
