ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We. Interstate, at
EllIpse.
The preparations for the pyrotechnic
display tonight caused a postponement
of yesterdays contest between Navy
and Agriculture.
The diamond was covered with struc-
lures, so that a game was impossible,
Umpire Erwin declaring a postpone
ment.
From the e. me played against Post
office last week, Agriculture seems to
have come back into its old-time form.
Time was when the Farmers were the
pride OF the league instead of cellar
champs.
Manager Stratton, of Interstate, is not
after tomorrow game with the Mall
Fingers. He will use a few more new
men in his lineup in an effort to stop
Postoffice's parade pennantward.
Should he turn the trick tomorrow,
the two leaders would in all proba biIity
be tied In the race when they meet q
week from tomorrow.
That game on the 18th should bring
out the rooters in full force. Each
team has its faithful band of support
ers, and they are already making pre-
parations for some heavy cheering
Two years ago in a similar contest be-
tween Treasury and G. and L., the
Laborites appeared with near band. -
consisting mostly of a bass drum. The
drummer. who is still in the depart
ment, will bring his band out again
next week.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS VS.. Silver Spring.
Owing to the lack of time to schedule
a game in place of the All-Star con-
test. there will be nc game today.
White Haven could not make It three
straight from Southland, going down be-
fore the hands Of the Plumbers, in an
interesting Eine-inning battle. The game
and nineteen minutes being taken to get
in the game.
The thing to stand out most promi-
nently all through the contest was the
fielding of Jack Spaulding, the South
land shortStop. SDaulding was all over
the field. his two banner plays being
seemingly impossible assists on balls hit
over second base. Binsted suffered at
his hands. in this manner, as did his
battern partner. Charley Fletcher.
Grace contributed to the sensational
part in the very first stanza, when he
nabhed Burch's fly with his bare hand
after a spectacular leap into the air.
TBoogy'' LitchfieId. the Southland
SonthpaW, was never In any kind of
trouble, White Haven going out in order
FIVE times. Litchfield famed eight of
the Countrynen and allowed but five
hits.
Carroll's sensational pickup Of a wild
throw by Page while stretched out at
full. length was certainly one of the
most spectacular bits Of fielding exhib-
tied this year.
The schedule for the rest Of the week
follows. several important changes hav-
ing been made July 5, Woodland VS..
Silver Spring; July 6, Woodland VS..
Rraddock: July Z, Silver Spring VS..
White Haven: July S, Emmanuel VS..
Braddock.
The management of the Emmanuel
team has again changed hands, this
time Wilcox, the hard-hitting outfielder,
being in charge. Wilcox has gathered a
team which will consist mostly of De-
rartmental League players. and with
this aggregation in the field, Emmanuel
becomes a serious pennant ispirant.
Although many consider the tail-end
teams out Of the race, this is as yet
far from being 50. Emmanuel, who is at
present bringing UP the rear. has lost
but three more games than Southland
Braddock, and Silver Spring, each of
which has lost six. Should the new
men come up to what is expected Of
them, Emmanuel will soon overcome
this handicap.

0AKES STARTS GOOD |
THING FOR COUNTY;
Meeting Of Citizens Last Night
Make Move for Better
Farming Methods.
Strong Petition to Be Presented
to County Board Asking
an Appropriation.

A splendid proposition for the farm
ers was initiated in this county last
night, when a meeting of the business
men of Oakes at the Commercial Club
rooms took up the matter of securing
for Dickey county share of the $780,
600 recently subscribed by leading
business houses of the twin cities. This
amount is offered on condition that the
counties taking it up raise an equal
amount, to be distributed over three
years, or $50, 900 per year. Only eight
counties can taketup the proposition on
the start, but the matter can be ex-
tended as funds warrant.
The plan is to ask the county COM
missioners for an appropriation here
say $1,000. Then the twin city asso-
citation will donate a like amount,
which will be used towards the super
intendent's salary and the other ex-
penses. There would be six or eight
demonstration farms in the county,
and everything would be done that
could be done with such an appropria-
tion to instill better farming methods
into the county. 1t is something that
would prove of inestimabe value, as
the raising of few more bushels of
grain per acre would pay many times
over the original investment.
Mr.. Mccartney is an enthusiast on
the matter. He has attended several
meetings Of the Association, being one
of its directors, and is very desirous of
getting part of the appropriation be-
fore other counties take it up.
A petition was started by the COM
mittee appointed and largely signed
to present to the next meeting of the
county board asking for an appro-
pristiyn. aiessrs. II. * Johnson: Gus
Strutz and w. H. Bush, have charge
of the petitions here, and will ask
other parts of the county to enlist in
the same work.
The Times will have more to say on
this next week.
