FARM MACHINERY.

Very satisfactory machines have
been perfected for the harvesting of
small grain, picking corn and digging
and sorting potatoes. but as yet no
machine has been devised which will
pull and top beets. To meet this need
the Great Western Sugar company of
Denver has offered prize for a prac-
teal sugar beet puller and topper. The
motive power for the machine must
not exceed four horsepower per beet
row. The machine must pull and top
all the beets, separate the beets from
the tops and leave both convenient for
loading. The awarding Of the prize by
the company does not entitle it to any
interest in the invention or machines
Of the successful contestants.

A NEW METHOD.

A Minnesota farmer in a discussion
Of the problem Of quack grass eradica-
ton recommends a plan that he has
found entirely successful, one in which
he did not find it necessary to lose a
years use Of the land. He began his
campaign of eradication the latter part
Of August following the removal Of
crop of small grain. He first used a
deep tilling machine, blowing the soil
to q depth Of sixteen to eighteen
inches. He narrowed Immediately aft
er and double disked three times at
intervals during the fall. In the spring
he narrowed thoroughly, seeded to
wheat. and on harvesting it not spear
of the quack grass was to be seen.
This method is different from those
usually recommended. but the results
obtained seem to furnish strong argu-
ment in its favor.

SAVING FERTILITY.

Virgin soil was never so richly en-
dowed with fertilizing elements that
continued abuse in the shape of crop
ping and making no return in the
shape of legumes and fertilizers would
not wreck and prostitute it. Many an
eastern farmer has learned this fact to
his sorrow. but too late to save him.

the Mississippi and Missouri valleys

The writer does not advocate the
practice Of boy in his early teens

EQUAL PROTECTION
FOR PLAYER AND
MAGNATE IS OBJECT
David L. Fultz Sets Baseball
World Right on New
Organization.

David L. Fultz. an eX-professiOnal
baseball player. now lawyer. and re-
Gently elected president of the new base
ball players organization. known as
the Baseball Players Fraternity. has
set forth the objects of the new bOdy
as follows:
ON the 9th day Of September, 1912.
the organization of the baseball Play
ers' FraternitN,' an association of pro-
feSSiOndl baseball players Of the Ma
tional and American Leagues, was COM
pleted by the filing with the secretary
Of state of the state Of New York and
the county clerk Of the county of New
York of a certificate in compliance with
the membership corporation law of this
State.
The general purposes of the frater-
nifty are as follows: To have every rea-
sonablc obligation of the PLAYERS coll
triCt lived up to by both contracting
parties. To secure adequate protection
from abusive spectators. To disCouu-
tenancc and abolish as far as possible,
rowdyism ON the field. TO be OF finan-
Cial assistance to deserving ball play
ers To advise the player concerning
any real or fanCied grievance, and. in
the event the former exists, to prepare
his case for him. To instiIl into player
the strongest possible influence to in
duce him to keep himself I'm condition,
and to give his employer the best serV-
Ice of which he is capable.
1T has been argued hv some Of tho
opponents Of the fraternity that there
is no need for an organization, that the
rights Of the PLAYERS are amply pro-
tected by the National Agreement,
which is an agreement entered into by
every league in the United states,
furty-threr in number. In order that
the situation may be understood, it is
necessary to keep in mind the fact that
when player Signs r0ntLaIt ne en-
terS into am agreement which binds the
owner for only ten days. while the play
er is bound for til" remainder OF his
DrOfcsslOnal career Never again has ne
IN" power to contTart, h" may be
bought, sold traded, Leased, or given
away and all without his consent. He
must sign any contract which is placed
before him, for the reason that under
the rules of the National Agreement he
is property right of the original con-
tracting team, and no other team may
negotiate with him The star often gets
his price through threat Of retirement,
but the majority of the players hav"
absolutely nothing to say about their
r.

TRAVERS' WIN WAS
BEST IN HISTORY,
SAY GOLF CRITICS
Third Time Winner Played
Wonderful Game in De-
feating Evans.

CHICAGO GOLF CLUB, Wheaton,
III, Sept. s.-"Whos all right" Chorus
of thousands:
jerome Dunston Travers, of Upper
Montclair, \. j.. for third time anna
tour. golf champion of the United
states"
He won the title a third time, defeat
ing Charles Evans, jr., of Edgcwater
H., Chicago, up and . to go at IS
holes yesterday. in one of the greatest
IL atches in history.
TraNers' burst Of speed from the start
of the afternoon round was clectrifying
nothing to approach it ever having been
seen IN the premier American event.
Travers played his first nine holes in
thirty-sercn strokes, against thirty
seven par, AS if the pressure he was
under and the heat was tribes.
Evans, whom the ChiCagoaHs have
beer itching for ears to sic" on Jerry
Travers, WAS simply carried off his feet
by the latter = romet-liko rush.
He did not win single hole after
luncheon and halved but four. Harold
Hilton, of England, had he been in the
nnLl against Trt.vCrs, would have been
opelcssly beaten. Even the London
correspondents here and Britishers in
the gallery who have been almost dumb
throughout the week when 1t came to
expressing opinions admitted that they
never saw anything like such a place,
and that no amateur in the world could
have beaten TraNcrS.
At least $lno,un changed hands on the
event in the immediate Chicago district.
The prINat" wires from the Chicago
brokers' offices into New York earned
little but golf bets Saturday morning

round progressed grew more confident

still. At luncheon to was generally
offered against Travers and at that rat
lot was taken by New Workers. Still
some funds went unahsorbcd.
TrHNcrS' sweep was a great surprise
As the two Youngsters had never
CROSSED clubs until last Saturday. and
then in the medal play round for the
Olympic cup, which did not aid a bit
in getting d line on them, there was no
dAto on which to measure one against
the other
