 SOMERSET TEAM

The A. G. s. won the pennant of the Railroad league. which league has teams in Birmingham, Chattanooga, Meridian and Somerset, by defeating the team of the c. N. o. and T. P. of Somerset, Ky.
 The Somerset team couldn't hit the Bir- mingham pitchers. The Magic City band furnished music for the crowd of en- thusiasts and the games were thoroughly enjoyed.
 The feature of the first game was the pitching and catching of Baldorff and Bonholzer, and the former striking out 16 men, walking only one and yielding but hits. The A. G. s. team in the first game scored no errors. The second game was without great interest on account of the fact that the Somerset boys were weaker before Williams than they had been before Baldorff Williams allowed but one hit. The two runs of the Somer- set team were due to two successive err

Shallenberger Busy
Rapping Mr., Bryan
(From a Staff Correspondents

LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. 6.-tSpecial Tele-
gram.)-It is the opinion of Ex-Governor
Shallenberger, who was in the city yes
terday, that the democratic party should
get an issue and fight consistently for it
in the coming campaign. lie says farther
that the issue should be one that will be
beneficial to the people-one that will re-
lieve them from some of the weights with
which they are now overburdened.
THE time is past" he claims, when
the voter scratches his ballot because of
a man-issues are what count. The party
with an issue and the party that fights
hard for that issue, IL it is. worthy one,
is the party that wins. Give the demo-
cratic party an issue this next year and
its candidates will be elected all the way
down, and where there are republicans in
the state house at the present time there
will be democrats

THIsTLEs IN DRY COUNTRY
is Positively AIarmlns-Farmers
Should Fight 1t.

The extent to which this pest pre-
walls in dry areas is positively alarm
ing. Where grain crops are grown
take possession of the crop In a dry
year. The possession is SO complete
in many instances and the thistles
grow so closely that they cannot make
rank growth. They not only smother
the grain, but they crowd each other
to such an extent that they cannot
possibly make a strong growth. In
some areas this is true OF whole
fields and of every field in which grain
is grown in dry year such as the
present, says writer in the Dakota
Farmer. l speak not from hearsay,
but from observation.
What Is to be done to meet the
evil? OF course where every farm
grows Russian thistles In an unfenced
country. 1t will be impossible to keep
any farm absolutely free from the
thistles. 1t should be possible, how
ever. to prevent them from doing
great damage.
The summer-fallow will remove
them from the surface soil for the time
being, providing the work Is thorough,
but of course they may roll over the
land and strew seed on 1t the follow
ing autumn or winter.
Land may be plowed Immediately
when the grain is removed. This will
prevent much seed from maturing
that would otherwise mature. and it
mill Mo
carried elsewhere by the wind. The
objection to this lies in the difficulty
found In doing this work at such q
time.
Winter rye may be profitably grown
on such land Preparing the land for
rye will be hard on the thistles. The
following spring the rye may be har-
rowed two or three times. This will be
hard on the thistles and good for the
rye. If winter wheat can be success
fully grown, similar results may be
made to follow.
Growing a crop of corn and caring
for it properly will go far toward
cleaning piece of land thus infested
in single season. Some of the seeds
may live over until the spring. but the
seeds of Russian thistles seldom live
more than two years.
Much may also be accomplished by
narrowing spring grain. The grain
may be narrowed two to four times
with much profit to the grain and with
great injury to the thistles. 1t is not
the purpose in this paper to discuss
the exact methods of narrowing. This
is very effective way of destroying
these plants. II all farmers were to
fight the pest as outlined, 1t would
cease to be seriously harmful.

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

Oats for the brood sows will pro-
duce better muscle for the pigs.
Don't rush matters when loading
fat hogs. A little haste may kill fat
porker.
Pneumonia kills many pigs before
the herd gets used to sleeping in damp
pens or drafts.
The young boars that are to be de-
veloped for breeding purposes should
be selected at an early age.
For the breeding of mules select
mares that have good sized. roomy
bodies and short, strong limbs.
Hang the windows so that the wind
will shoot overhead when they are
open, and not right on the cows.
There is hardly any reasonable
limit on the price a farmer can af-
ford to pay for a good brood SOW.
Frequent change to fresh pasture is
one of the best ways to stimulate the
growth of both the grass and the pigs.
The dreaded gap between fall and
spring pasturing has been successful
ly spanned in this country by the silo.
1t is a good plan to soak shelled
corn for the hogs and If it is ground
before 1T is soaked, so much the bet
ter.
1t is generally advisable to study
all environment of locality before Sc
lecting a particular breed OF live
stock.
Give the young boar as many kinds
of food as can reasonably be provided.
but do not make sudden changes in
his diet
After the pigs have been put into
the fattening pen in the fall they
should be fed all that they will eat
with relish.
If a little rape seed is sprinkled in
with the rye, variety of feed will be
provided, and the hogs will do even
better than upon rye alone.
The special care of the young bears
should commence at weaving time,
when they should be separated from
the gifts and other hogs placed in a
yard away from the rest of the herd.
