Shontz, the Dallas twirler, has so far
made the best record in the Texas
league. He has won seven out of nine
games Houston is the only team in the
league to defeat him, that aggregation

sition in excellent shape and is good
batter.

pitcher on the Bronchos' staff. He is
terror TO every team in the league.
He has the staying qualities. This was
shown in the Il inning tie with Gal
weston. Although it looked as if the
Branches were beaten he held on and
in the ninth a rally tied the score. He
then pitched faultless ball until dark
ness stopped the game.

season, in the way of fines and sus-
pension, which are calculated to hold
the boisterous player for while.

San Antonio, caught on to the Temple
band wagon. That team went up the
spout and he landed for berth with

form and has been called to Houston's

is important in demonstrating how cas-

saved.
Mr. Mincer has twelve acre orchard
which Is famous. He says that at least
80 per cent of the buds are not in
jured. Oil pots were used, one to each
tree, the fuel being crude oil.
Saturday night, in forty mile gale,
with the temperature outside down to
% degrees and with rain and snow fall
ing, temperature above freezing was
maintained in the orchard.
To-day Mr.. Mincer said that while a
few buds were injured, he estimated
that 80 per cent We're green and crisp,
and he stated that if nothing further
happens he will have the finest crop
on record. y
One block Of the orchard that was
not protected by fire pots was killed,
and an examination of other orchards
shows the buds are black and wilted.
Mincer has sufficient fuel for several
nights and more coming, and is pre-
pared to continue Indefinitely the work
Of keeping the temperature above

GRAINS NOT MUCH DAMAGED.
Secretary Wells Says Gold Wave Came
Too Early

Des Moines, April 20-According to
the opinion OF George A. Wells, sec
rotary of the Western Grain Dealers
Association, only slight damage to the
grain crop Of Iowa resulted from the
recent cold wave. Attic few farmers
in Iowa have reported small damage
the majority of the reports are opti-
mistic.
That the fruit crop in Iowa was Sc
verely damaged was confirmed by re-
ports received yesterday at the local
weather bureau. Practically all the
fruit trees in Iowa were in full bloom
before the arrival of the cold weather.
This gave the frost an opportunity to
reach the heart OF the buds. Little
hope for the fruit crop is entertained
by the farmers and fruit growers in the
state.
