On the whole the Nationals have
more than lived up to predictions thus
far this season. Tonight they hit the
road for a month and their real stuff
will be shown to all. Manager Grit
nth believes his team will make a
fair showing because of their fighting
spirit and in this he has the con-
currence Of every fan. The fighters
win in everything, boys.

game from the Tigers.
Milan's catch OF Moriarty's fly, MAX
ing the third out in the ninth, was
beautiful to see, the little fellow going
far into right field for the smash, which
might have caused trouble.
Bob Groom pulled bone stunt in the
eighth by not running out the play
when he forced Mcbride. AS a result
he was doubled up. However, even
Manager Griffith was doZing and evil

Sam Crawford just can't seem to do
anything with Bob Groom's curve ball
and looked very weak yesterday. How
ever. when Sam gets started. he's 60
ing to make up for his recent weak
ness and many good pitchers will suffer.
Davv Jones was up four times and
reached first three times. Twice he hit
safely and Henry's error let him reach
second in the fourth. Davy's right arm,
though. was strong enough to stop
Moeller from scoring the decisive tally.

Eeedino the Dairy Calves.

Feeding the calves the proper food
Is one of the important features OF
dairying where the dairyman raises
his own cows. No progressive dairy
man will be willing to divide the but
ter fat with the calf very long. He
will be anxious to put the calves on
skimmilk and concentrates as soon az
possible, because he can get more for
his butter fat than his concentrated
feeds are worth.
The calves should have a good pas
ture. where there are water. shade and
fair grazing. The young animals will
need exercise as we'll as grass and wa
Der, and the pasture will be the place
for them to develop rapidly.
Bran. shorts. rice bran, cornmeai.
etc., may be used. The young animals
will soon learn to eat good hay. silage
and grain. all Of which should be used
In the ration.

come cold have found it best to house
the colt. A SIZED closed from the wind

A cornstaIk field as soon as it Is
ready gives ample roughage and fine
place for them to run. but this in itself
Is not sufficient. COrnstalkS and
straw pile afford a good place for ex-
ercise but will not produce a good
sized drafter. Grain is essential to a
large growth. couple of hundred
pounds on a draft horse mean a con-
siderable increase in the selling price.
Grain fed literally to growing animals
means just that much more size when
they are mature.

WOODROW WILSON
A BALL PLAYER.
Good Pinch Hitter, but Too Lazy
to Practice.

"Woodrow Wilson was fine base
ball player, but too darn wrapped up
In reading to come out for practice"
was the musing comment of Governor
Glenn of North Carolina at Baltimore.
Governor Wilson and l were college
mates" said Glenn. I'VE studied and
played together against rival colleges
on the diamond for two years at Da-
7idson college, North Carolina. After
ward Wilson went to Princeton, and |
went back to the pillow.
Wilson was good ball player, but
he was too COMPOUNDED slaZy to make a
star. When the team would be called
out for practice we'd have to go to his
room and drag him from his book.
when Wilson wanted to play he
was a star. He played left field, and,
while be had an awkward way of run
ming, he covered lot Of ground and
was the best pinch hitter on the team
His only trouble was that he cared
more for history than for Spalding' S
rules

ESSENTIALS IN
SHEEP RAISING.
Pure Water Necessary to Main
tain Health In the Flock.

1t is absolutely essential that sheep
be provided with the very best OF
drinking water A sheep does not like
filthy water. and 1t will suffer thirst
great while before drinking it. The
sheep does not always know what Is
good for it, however, and will drink
out of pond or from sedgy brook
where Turk all kinds of insect life
which do great damage to the sheep
later on.
We, have observed all our lives that
where there is the least parasitic dis
ease among sheep they have the purest
water to drink says the Farm Progress.
Pure air and water are two essen
tials in sheep husbandry, and. while
they may temporarily thrive without
them, they will more surely do so If
they are provided. The following we
find correct: Water from sandstone or
slate rock is generally pure and may
be used with safety.
| If food is that which supports the
| life of an animal and increases growth
and weight, then the water must be
food, and it's condition is to be thought
of precisely as we think of the solid
food. We think very much of the
quality of the solid food, but mostly
| anything is drink which is water.
whatever its condition may be. This
