Bits of Fact.

Big game hunting by airship is the
very latest form Of sport. Hubert
Latham, the aIrman, was recently in
California, intent upon shooting
grizzly bears and mountain lions
from his monoplane.
The Merino sheep is Australia's
best asset. The estimated number OF
sheep in Queensland at the present
time is 20,040,000. This is an in
crease of nearly 100000 over the
previous year. The amount Of wool
produced in 1909 was 129,66S,s9
pounds. The greatest wool-producing
state in Australia, however, is New
South Wales, where the sheep at the
end of 1909 numbered 46,194,000. The
fleece for the year reached 1,033.S96
bales.

Ban B. johnson caused a furry in
baseball circles all over the United
States the other day when he declared
he was advocating a shorter major
league baseball schedule. The Ameri-
can league chief thinks the games
should begin late in April or on May 1.
Many baseball officials and critics
agree with johnson in this. They are
wondering what action the magnates
will take.
Johnson argued that the training
trips should be shorter and the cham
pionship schedule shortened also. He
thinks the weather is too uncertain in
April to permit of good baseball.
