COUNTY team in
fine CRICKET FORM
OufcIassed AIameda's Weakened
Team in Last Sundays
Contest at Wickets
STANDING OF THE CLUBS
By WILLIAM UNMAcK

The defeat of the strong Alameda
team by the San Francisco county
team caused much surprise in cricket
circles. As the San Francisco team
mad not been performing up to its
standard of late. 1t was hardly ex-
pected that it could put one over on
the leaders in the competition. To
give the Alamedas their due, however
tney did not have their full strength
team, and the lack of Howard's
bowling was easily apparent. How
ever, the county team thoroughly de-
served Its, win. for it's exhibition of
cricket was easily the best of the
day and 1t outclassed the Alameda
team.
Renwick, batting for San Francisco,
showed his true form for the first
time this season. and his inning of 55
not out was fine score.
Inc Alameda batsmen could make
no stand against their opponents at
tack.
The Wanderers outplayed the strong
Barbarians team, though the contest
was close The feature of the game
was the playing of Charlton, who
bowled eight straight maiden overs
The only championship game to be
played today will be between the Bar
barians and the Alamedas at the
stadium wicket. Both teams will have
out their full strength, and the Ala
media men do not wish to be caught
again. Their defeat last Sunday has
considerably altered the aspect of the
championship. and the outcome of the
contest is now most uncertain.
The Wanderers, though they have
lost Stuart, now have a good chance
to overtake Alameda

Hungary At present this European
brush is coming into this country and
being offered to the eastern buyers.
1T does not cost as much to ship
ton of broom corn brush from Hungary
to New York as it does from Hutchin-
son to New York.
"And as farm labor in Hungary can
be secured for 20 cents day, you see
what we are up against out here. Some
Of the growers have been trying hir-
ing Mexicans to pull brush, and they
work cheaper than any other labor out
here. Even this is unfair"
The broom corn buyers say that one
reason the prices this season are no
higher than they are is because of the
competition of European brush. Very
little brush has been commanding
more than 500 a ton. The best prices
paid in the west have been at Sterling
and Mcpherson, where from $125 to
$135 has been paid. Several Reno
county growers get as much as $3.50
for their brush.
But the bulk of the broom corn IN
the Liberal and Syracuse districts is
selling for less than 500.

to Kansas Readers.

Manhattan, Kan, Dec. S.-The annual
chance for the farmers who do not go
TO college is to be presented at the
Kansas State Agricultural college be-
ginning January 3 and ending March
1Aten weeks of liberal instruction on
the vital questions of farming. This is
called the winter short course in ag-
riculture and dairying." Under this
head animal husbandry is included, and
that means about everything pertain
inc to cattle, hogs, sheep, horses and
dairy COWS. It means instructions and
lectures on all the subjects in which
every farmer in Kansas is most direct
" interested. 1t means the big chance

this winter. New things about crops
and live stock, interesting to him be-
cause it helps him to make better
living, will be discussed in the lectures
The short course gives ten weeks in
struction in proper soils for different
crops, planting, cultivating, and mar
vesting: judging of live stock and
grain under a competent instructor;
learning to handle the common tools u
shop and farm; breeding and FEEDING
of live stock and the breeding of crops
of every description. 1t takes up the
study Of live stock, horticulture, for
estry. farm mechanics, poultry and
shop work in relation to one another
and their individual merit.
Some of these things the up to date
farmers of Kansas already know, but
many of them still are mysteries t1

that the instruction, given at a time
when work on the farm is out of the
question, will be invaluable.
But more important still, the short
course gives the farmers a chance tC
meet other farmers from all the coun-
ties of the state, to exchange views and
experiences, and get in touch with new
ideas, new ways of doing things, the
most helpful and encouraging sort OF
social and business intercourse.
Everything touched upon in the
course is necessarily of the most prac
ticab1e value, and that means Of i'm

farmers avail themselves of the oppor
