Murray Of Giants Once Roasted
By Fans, Is Now Their Idol
Thatched Gardener Many
Accurate Pegging-Has Saved Giants in Many Game
By W. J. MACBETH.

, doff their sky pieces in admiration has
TO be possessed of great gameness as
well as great merit Probably the best
way to explain Reds" former short
comings is to refer to him as a hard
luck player. When he hit safely in
variably there would be no one on
the sacks. When he famed the bases
were generally full When he booted
one it let in a run or two. usually they
were the fatal runs that decided the
pastime.
But this year is a new page in Muir
rays history. He apparently has out
lived the little idiosyncrasies of the
past. He has been one of the main cOgs
OF McGraW's champion pacemakers,
and If a second pennant is unfurled at
the Brush stadium no one will have
had greater part in bringing 1t to
New York Murray is playing the game
OF his life He IS one of the best pinch
hitters on the team He is one of the best
base runners. Both defensively and Of
fensively he has had more spectacular
achievements than any other Giant
This season he has won more games for
his club and lost fewer than any of his
fellows. In short he has generally been
at his best in the pinch.
The most beautiful part of Murray's
work this year is that he is supreme in
emergencies. No outfielder has cut
down more runners at the plate. No
gardener has instilled more respect on
on the part of base runners in the mat
ter of taking chances of advancing on
long flies. No fielder has taken more
in the balance. 1t takes nerve to play
for what appears an almost impossible
, out when a failure at that out means
a long hit. But Red" has never hesi-
tated about accepting the greater re-
sponsiblity. He has lost some games
by taking long chances instead of play
ing safety, but for every game he has
blown he has saved several The fans
appreciate this fact
Sensational Work Saves Giants.
Murray kept the Giants in the thick
of the fight when his associates were
stale and almost ready to give up the
the Cubs saved the Giants from COM
plete annihilation in the last series in
Chicago. Had he gone the way OF the
rest of McGraW's slipping legion, moth
ing could have prevented the final trip
through the west developing into an
utter rout
Murray should be a big factor in this
falls worlds series if the Giants have
the honor of representing the National
stain attached to his performance
against the Athletics But if he should
fail to reach first in the big show also,
no one would have any license to chide
him. His work this season speaks for
itself There is no question Of game
Eess in Murray's makeup.
Often the greatest stars prove the
biggest disappOintments in worlds Sc
ries. 1t was so for three years in the

This is a distinguishing Characteristic
Of the people of this southwestern
country whose chronological bump for
initiative is so prominently developed
that their hats sit awry on their heads.
This makes US a very progressive
people so much so. in fact, that in a
spirit of resuessness and in an ettort
to move forward we slide little back
ward
This is particularly true of poultry
men. Let new breed OF any kind
appear on the horizon of poultry dom
and they accept as gospel truth the
exa Sgerated claims of the boosters OF
the new breed and think possibly the
half has not been told. They are all
easy marks and are soon separated
from many of the honest dollars which
the true and tried old varieties have
earned for them. They rush into the
market for breeding stock of the new
breed, paying tOpnOtch prices for stock
or eggs OF the new variety, neSlectins
and forgetting the many virtues OF
their faithful friends of other breeds
Now, it is not my intention to dis
parage any of the newer breeds, for
they all have good points, but I want
to be placed of record as standing by
and among those old friends I class
cOnspicuously Pekin ducks.
Indian Runners, a few years ago,
made a meteoric dash within the range
of cur vision and for while IT might
have been thought even faithful ola
Biddy would be relegated 70 the past
except for the raising of a few broll-
ers. AS producers of eggs they seemed
to be done for, as Indian Runners pro-
posed to give US so percent more eggs

care and at the same time furnish
eggs one-fOurth larger and very much
richer. That claim to richness OF
quality is an old chestnut when ap-
over another. Indian Runners are q
valuable acquisition to pOultrydOm,
but that is all and where they have
caused us to neglect the breeding of
Pekins their introduction has cost US
money.
Pckin Ducks Good for Results
In the humble opinion of the writer,
no branch of the poultry business can
be made TO yield greater returns than
the breeding of Pekin ducks for mar
ket and it is hard to conceive of any
line in which could be found greater
pleasure. Stand by Pekins and they
will stand by you, as they have done
since 1873, when the first birds of the,
bred were imported from PeSin, China
They are an Asiatic breed, snow whites
in color of plumage. yellow skin and
bill, shanks and toes are orange, eyes
leaden blue. head long, body long and
blocky and legs short. Males weigh
to 10 pounds and females Z to
pounds. They lay mostly white shelled
eggs, a little larger than those of In
dian Runners and from 125 to $50 per
year. In addition to this egg prOduc-
ton PehnS are wonderful meat pro-
ducers and in the east are raised on
an immense scale by large commercial
duck plants to supply the demand for
younG ducks in the city market.

~ UTFIELDER JACK MURRAY, of
the champion Giants, is bright
~ example of what pluck and de-
termination will do in the face of Sc
yerest hostility Murray is today one
of the idols of the Polo grounds. He
is by far the best outfielder of his
team and one Of the very most valuable
men working for McGraW- At the be-
ginning of the present season Red
Jack was dead one in the estimation
Of the bugs" The enthusiasts were
riding his neck, rough shod, crying lus-
lily for his scalp. And all because the
fiery matched young right gardener
had fallen down in the worlds series
with the Athletics.
Failed to Get a Single Hit.
In the Iamentable worlds series of
last fall Murray was little worse than
any of his fellows. In fact if the
Giants had won out he would have been
accorded big hero. But defeat was
embittered by the thought that Murray
had failed to get a single hit in the six
games played He didn't fail 10 make
an error and that's where the rub came
IN. To make II worse for Red Jack
he was up any number of times in the
pinch; that brought out his sticking
weakness all the stronger.
1t was freely limited after the worlds
series that McGraW would cut adrift
from Murray and indeed Jack himself
expected the ak even after the club as
sembled for spring practice at Marlin
Instead Of Sulking, however, ne got
out and hustled all the harder against
the youngsters who were trying to
break into his preserves If McGraw
had entertained any idea of sacrificing
Red" the notion was soon lost. Muir
ray proved one of his best men right
from the start of the year.
Is Great ThrOTver.
It is doubtful if there is any better
throWer than Jack in organized base
ball The American league has some
wonders. Hooper, Speaker and Lewis of
the Red SoX have deadly arms, one and
all. Ty Cobb is possessed of a Won
derful wing and so is Joe Birmingham
OF the Maps. Maybe some of these can
return the ball to the plate from
deep field as quickly as Red Jack" but
not one of them will make as many ac-
Curate pegs in 10 trials.
His deadly accuracy has made Muir
ray the terror of all opposing base
runners. Even fast men hesitate about
going from first to third on a hit and
run play if the necessary bingle goes
into Murray's yard, while a sacrifice
fly in Jacks territory has to be about
twice as long as to any other section of
the pasture. The unc2nny accuracy of
Murray's wing is responsible for this.
He can whistle the ball with rifle bull
his playing territory right to the plate,
more than nine times out of 10. This
Murray has proved to the satisfaction
of all his opponents, and now they give
him a wide berth.
