A glance at the New England league lineups would seem to bear out this assertion, for with the exception of the shortstop position, at least two players can be found to hit the other places. For pitchers there are Case of Lynn, Jensen and Reiger of Fall River and Ward of Brockton. Lavigne, Weeden and Wadleigh are the catchers, while Wright. formerly with Holyoke and Tom Stankard with Low ell and Brockton respectively, are the first sackerS. Phoenix, formerly with Bridgeport, now with Lawrence, and Connaughton of Brockton are the sec- ond seekers and Weaver formerly with Northampton, is the sole shortfelder. On third base there is Grubb of Hover hill and Kopf of Fall River. The out field produces Pip Rising, Luyster of Lawrence and Williams of Fall River. Springfield Union.

Shamrock IL, the grand champion
steer Of the 1910 international, has
lately made public the following data
in regard 10 this steer and the care
which he received. Shamrock was
calved Jan. 10. 1910, his sire being O

on a nurse cow. being kept in the
barn during the day and allowed the
run of a grass lot at night. He
was fed In addition all the clover

consisting OF three parts corn, two
parts wheat bran and one part OIL

During the last twenty days Of the

sisted OF from nine to eleven pounds
of cooked feed, twenty-five pounds Of
roots ana five pounds OF clover hay,
besides the milk from two cows. The

ton which a beet patch OF the size
requires. 1t ts but fair to say that he
had his nerve with him when he tao
kled 80 large proposition. We found
that OF this tract some land was too
low and wet to give satisfactory re-
suits, while the highest land In the
forty acres was 30 light and dry that
a very poor stand Of beets was the re-
suit. In spite of these drawbacks he
found on "sugaring" or after the last
ton Of beets was aboard the ears that
he had netted 5000 on the years crop,
or net return per acre of $3.50.
While hard to determine in terms Of
dollars and cents, It In fair to say that
the excellent filth in which the field
was left ms N result of growing the
beets was Of considerable value while
tt should also be added that the beet
tops which were fed the dairy cows

BOY And DOG KILL WOLF
Stanley Thompson Hero Of Escapade
With Desperate Wild Animal at
Tenstrike Yesterday.
BRINGS IN HIDE; GETS BOUNTY

Stanley Thompson, the-young son
of S. 3. Thompson, the Tenstrike
merchant, succeeded yesterday after
noon, with the assistance of the
Thompson bull dog, in killing a big
and vicious timber wolf that had at
tackled the dog in an effort to gain
possession of a dead rabbit
The fight between the boy and
dog on one side and the wolf on the
other took place ON the edge of the
swamp at Tenstrike. 49,.
The lad heard his dog graphing
with some sort of an adversary and
ran with his gun. He found the dog
and wolf disputing the ownership of
the rabbit, and although the wolf
was large and desperate the boy ran
to within range and sent bullet in
to the VOLTS carcass, wounding the
animal, but not mortally.
The wolf dropped the rabbit and
made for the woods, with the bulldog
after him. The dog finally made a
lunge, set his teeth in the VOLTS hide
and throttled him to death.
Stanley skinned the dead wolf and
today brought the hide to Bemidji
receiving from County Auditor
George the regulation state bounty

necessary assemble the legislature to

made known. III ~
Nevertheless, it is admitted that
