A Dry Season

The weather conditions
throughout the Northwest
have been such this spring
that it is apparent a short
hay crop is certain and the
farmer and stock raiser must
begin now to consider the
question of feed for his cat
tie the coming fall and win
ter. The surest, and in fact
the only substitute for hay
is corn fodder, and to get
i the best results from fodder
it should be fed in the form
of ensilage.
The farmer who has silo
need not let the prospect Of
a short hay crop worry him,
as a few acres planted to
corn will provide abundant
feed, or the best kind for
his live stock.
To the farmer who does
not have a silo, we say get
busy and prepare to con-
serve the products Of your
fields
A stave silo is not expen-
siye, is easily erected and
will pay for itself IN one
year

JOHNsON'S SPEED MISSING.
Famous Pitcher of Washington Is Not
Showing Up Well.

Famous Pitcher of Washington is Not
Showing Up Well.
Walter Johnson of the Washingtons
is nothing like the pitcher he was last
year. He neither looks nor pitches as
he did during the campaign Of 1910.
nor is he apt to until he RECEIVERS his
vitality. His recent sickness has left
him weak, and he shows 1t in his
work.
That terrific speed which made John
son a great pitcher is not apparent this
season. Els work is only ordinary
these days, and he is being hit harder
than he ever was during the former
three seasons he has been q member
Of the Washington team.
He may show a fash now and then,
but that consistent effectiveness which
made him famous is lacking, and It
might be good policy to allow him sew
eral weeks rest
The work that Johnson is now doing
Is forced, and a pitcher who forces
himself is always In danger of fnjur-
ing his arm, and 1t Is against such a
calamity that McAleer should guard
himself and his club.

INAL INTER-CLAss STANDING.

In the only extra inning game Of
the inter-class series the juniors de-
feated the freshmen yesterday after
noon on the copper works diamond,
taking the long end of the 4 to 2
score. For the second time the 1912
aggregation will have their numerals
engraved upon the silver cup which
records the inter-class baseball cham
pion each year.. 1t took the elder
classmen ten long and hard fought
innings to turn the trick and even In
their half of the last stanza the
freshmen threatened to score Koch
made a long triple in this frame but
the next batter struck out and Peter
son relieved the Junior followers
with a short fly to right field which
was taken care Of by Hardiman.
CARTS, who twirled for the fresh
men, worked In fine fashion, striking
out eleven men and allowing but
three free passes. The hits which
the 1912 aggregation made were we'll
scattered except in the first and last
stanza when they tailed three of the
four runs. The other run that was
scored by the class champions was
made on errors by Peterson and
Koch. Coley, who worked with a
sprained ankle, gave four free pass
es but only allowed two hits, one be-
ing a triple and the other a scratch
hit which would have been killed if
Coley did not have to limp while
getting the ball. The Juniors, al
though making four errors, gave
Coley good support In the pinches
and some Of the felders also made
put-outs that looked like sure hits.
The game vas the most exciting
eve witnessed on the copper works
diamond, many brilliant plays being
made, a few men being nailed at the
plate, two fast double plays, and
many spectacular catches by Clear,
the willy shortstop of the freshmen
nine. The class champions started
off at a fast clip, scoring a run in the
first inning through a single by
Browning and a long triple by Coley.
"Joe's" hit was a sure homer but
Major, who was running for Coley,
cut second a little too much and had
to return to second before he could
go further. After returning and
touching the midway station Major
ran back to third and reached there
In ample time. This killed the Sec
ond run for the juniors as Levy made
the third out on a fly to the catcher.
The freshmen aggregation follow
ed closely by tieing the score in their
inning and held 1t until the ninth by
half of the second stanza. Finally
the juniors took the lead In the sixth
the score Of 2 to 1. Through a free
pass and an error made by Hardi-
man the freshmen again tied the
score. In the tenth, however, Their
kelson started the Junior rally by
placing a neat single. Kelley was
given a free ticket to first. Then
Major clouted the pill for a sharp
single, scoring Therkelson. Brown

TWO PURITAN
MINES ALERT
Manager Rsidy Of Originals
Expresses His Opinion.

When the new team, the P~uritans,
announced their intention of playing
ball in this section, Manager Vincent
Reidy, who claims TO be the head Of
the original Puritans, took exception
to the name which they had chosen.
He claims that the members of
the new team are former players of
the team which he manages and that
they were released. He says that
they want to get back at the team
because they were dropped and con-
s~equently have formed a team of
their own under the name of the
original team. Manager Reidy's
team do not think the treatment they
have received is fair and offers to
play the new team for a side bet of
SIS any place and at any time.
The new nine say they are fast
and wish to play games with good
teams in the near future. They wish
to book games with such teams as
Roosevelt and the st. Agnes Ly-
ceums, Of New Brunswick. They
will play out of town games. Games
can be secured by communicating
with their manager, Martin Ander-
son.

With batting averages Of .379 and

st. Anthony aggregations report
themselves in the best Of condition
for Sundays first battle Of the series
between these two rivals. There is
no u in the Saints camp to equal
the wonderful average made by Fritz,

but all Of the Saint aggregation are
hitting nearly alike. The lowest
average Of the boys who dwell in the

Gallagher with .296, while there are

SOUTH AMBOY
IN FINE FORM
Ath|eti cs After Scalp of
Morgan Club Tomorrow
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

. " tt%o IL ' v Ss
South Amboy, June 23:-Local
fans are on edge for the game to-
morrow afternoon on Star field, be-
tween the South Amboy Athletics
and the Morgan B. B. Club. Both
teams, haiIing from this place and
very popular among their OWL crowd,
have been itching to get at each
other for some time, but the oppor-
tunity did not offer before.
Maxfeid, the Morgan pitcher, has
twirled some great games this sum-
mer, always receiving fine support by
his teammates. The Morgans have
cleaned up all the fast mines In this
section but local fandom repeat, "the
pitcher went to the well just once
too often"
Atkinson, the pride Of the Ath-
letics, is considered the premier
pitcher of the town but does not re-
ceive the support given Maxfield. He
usually works for the team on Sun
day at Fairhaven, but Manager
Magee will not take any chances on
this all important occasion. Fritz
will do the receiving act.
The Asbury Park A. c. will play
at Fairhaven Sunday against the
local Athletics. 1t Is the first game
of a series. The scores last Saturday
and Sunday were: Athletics, 10;
Catholic Club, of New Brunswick, s.;
Athletics, s; Sterling A. c., Of Sayre-
vile, 0.

Fish Tales

Better put on all the trimmings
that the m%otorboat laws call for, as
the inspectors are busy, and they
are stopping every boat along the
highways and are also visiting the
club houses where they find boats
coming and going. 1t doesn't cost
much to buy an outfit, but 1t costs
a lot to pay a fine.
Ben Robinson, Of Newark, was
fishing Just outside Of the j~etties at
Morgan's station, Tuesday, when h a
heavy storm broke, and while in no
immediate danger, he didn't like to
20 ashore, as the weakfish and blue
fish had started to gather around
the boat. William Gottsleben was
with him and he had several heavy
strikes.
Great Kills is a cove on Staten
Island famous for years as a veal
fish grounds. 1t is protected against
storms and makes an ideal fishing
ground for Newark motorboatmen.
After turning Tottenv1lle, out of Sta
ten Island Sound, there is a fine run
of FIVE miles to the Kills. The rail-
road station on Staten Island is Gift
fords. When the weakfsh are bit
ing there Is no better spot In the bay
to fish for them.
There must be plenty of weakfsh
and blue1sh in the bay, judging from
the reports of the catches made in
the nets. One Of the Raritan Bay
nets landed $50 bushels Of fish
Wednesday night, half Of which
were weakfsh, and another one had
sixty bushels OF weakfish and blue
fish. The fish are not running very
large, but that won't amount to
much If they would only bite SO as
to give US a chance to catch some Of
them.
Gus Wagner, of the Tuesday Club,
has wandered from the straight and
narrow path when it comes to tell
ing fish stories, and we are afraid
that 1t might become a habit, al
though we have thought better of
him In the past. 1t seems that Gus
and several friends were out fishing
Tuesday and, not catching anything.
went ashore to where the nets were
being hauled and bought some blues
and weaks, which they later showed
to a certain gentleman friend of
theirs, claiming that they caught
them off Morgan's. The friend was
down there bright and early yester-
day morning and If he didn't catch
anything Gus will surely hear from
him.
