PLUMBERS ON
ANNUAL OUTING
Baseball Game Was Feature
of the Occasion.

So evenly matched were the base
ball teams composed of members OF
the Plumbers Steam and Gas FIT
ters' local, No. 27O and their guests
at the unions first annual clam bake
Saturday afternoon that the game was
drawn out into twelve innings and
not won by the Plumbers Union un-
til one of the grandest contests aver
seen at an outing became a thing OF
the past. The score was 10 to IA.
The winners were a bit adverse to
going home with the bacon, as they
claimed it was nothing short of seti-
uuette to allow their guests an OPP
portunity to cinch the w~ell-played
match. But the visitors thought and
felded differently so the union
chaIked up the larger number OF
runs.
This game as said was in connec-
ton with the unions first annual out
ng at Pine Grove. The married and
single men took a crack at each other
early in the day and the latter won
hands down by the score of 70 to y:
1t was easy. ]. J, Kelly umpired
this game while A. J. Grottene and
F. Hurley oficiated IN the second
game. The second game lasted one
hour and thirty-five minutes and the
score was diligently preserved by
Charles Buchan.
Two ball games were not all the
sports enjoyed during the afternoon.
John p. Moylan won the 100 yard
dash: Thomas Wilbur ambled home
in the fat mems race and William
Buchan romped away from a large
ield in the sack race. The judges

PUBLIC OPINION
Editor EVENING NEWS:

EullOf ENE NING Nv

Fourth Ward Democratic Association
in Friday nights edition, I would say
that the same endorsement as re-

from time to time been extended to
other Democratic candidates by this
Association, without comment. The
use of the S~ecretary's name, at the
time was implied by his consent to
have the communication sent to your
paper.
P. S.-We are at times compelled
to use this method of doing business
for the reason we seldom have our

few. Whatever was the cause last

SPINNERS WAR ON EXCHANGE
Relations Between Manufacturers As.
ISOLATION and New York lnstitu-
tion Disrupted.

The American Cotton Manufactur.
ers' association has declared war on
the New York cotton exchange, and
the relations between speculator and
spinner, which have been strained for
several years, are completely disrupt
ed. II other means fail 1t is proposed
to invoke congress to compel the ex-
change to conduct its operations on
q basis less favorable to the wiles OF
the big manipulators, who have dom
mated prices and the distribution of
the staple with an eye solely to their
own advantage. President Marsh OF
the exchange admits that it's affairs
are conducted In the interest of cotton
merchants rather than manufacturers
or any other class engaged In the
business, says the Washington Post.
The association has no quarrel with
the New Orleans cotton exchange, un-
der the rules Of which the worst prac-
tees tolerated In New York are pro.
hibited, but the operations on the lat
ter exchange are so much greater than
on the first named that the unfortu-
nate effects are practically UNIVERSAL
ly felt. Persistent price misquotation
Is the principal source of complaint
and as this trick of the ticker crowd
works out to the loss of the manufac.

point against the exchange would

Window Decoration.

Sometimes a room on which its
owner has spent much time and
thought may have its tasteful effect
decidedly lessened by the fact that II
Is at the back of the house. The rea.
son for this is that many back win
dows have not an attractive outlook.
This disadvantage has been overcome
by a clever girl who can paint. She
has decorated the lower sash of the
windows in harmony with the room.
It requires only a moderate amount Of
skill in painting, but more artistic
taste. The work is done with oil
paints and flower design is used.
A specially effective flower to use
for this purpose is the water lily. but.
OF course, it will have the right effect
only when it fits into the decorative
scheme of the room. In using this
design the glass must be painted with
waving lines Of green and greenish
blue, to represent the water, with the
lilies and their leaves resting on its
surface. This is very pretty in q
com with green and white decora-
Ions.

TO: COOPERATE IN BUYING
Farmers Begin 10 Realize Importance
Of Studying Every Field and Mix
ing Fertilizer.

A number of progressive farmers
have made up combined order for
commercial fertilizers unmixed in the
form of nitrate Of soda, muriate of
potash and acid phosphate. The first
order Of this kind was sent last year
and everyone realizes that they can
save money by ordering in this way.
They also are beginning to realize
the Importance of studying every field
and mixing the fertilizer for that par
ticular field and crop, which can be
done by mixing at home. Some have
had great results by using nitrate of
soda on the meadows early in the
spring when the grass is just starting,
and we have learned that we must use
more potash to stiffen the straw SO
that oats will not lodge so badly.
When one has: these chemicals sepa-
rateiy he can run experiments of his
own and learn a great deal about the
needs and requirements of the soil In
order to get the largest crop yields.
