these figures show their gross value.
But when they are compared with the

of hands. Once it gets a good start
under irrigation it requires put little

In setting up new sparkling plug
the first thing to be seen to is that the
ends of the platinum sparkling points
are fat and parallel. In cutting off the
wire for these points pair of cutting
pliers is used, with the result that the
ends are left in the shape of broad

are likely to be at any angle to one an
other it generally happens that the ac-
tual sparkling areas are but little more
than equal to the diameter of a very

weak spark is produced. and the

before finding the real cause Of it.

Tim S1urnane, writing TO this weeks

Your Peoria correspondent last
week was wrong when he said that the
Three-Eye league has been allowed to
remain in Glass B. The association
and the national board simply recon-
mended favorable action by the ma
tional commission, and even the com
mission must put the matter up TO the
major leagues for ratification. l can't
see where anyone will be injured if
this league is given the same classifi-
cation they have enjoyed for 10 years.
The national commission believes in
building up and holding the friendly
support of the minor leagues.
Services Rendered Gratis.
Another mis-statement made by
your Peoria correspondent was in say
ing that NJ. H. Sexton was elected a
member of the national association for
a term of five years al a salary of
$4,000 per year. Mr.. Sexton receives
no salary for his high office. In fact,

pensation. Bright men like Judge Kav-
anaugh, Dr. Carson, James II. O'Rourke
and J. Cal. Ewing, give up valuable
time and much legal advice as mem
bers of the board. This work is lightly
appreciated by the smaller leagues,

ciate the time and trouble this base
