EASY TO TEACH BLAckBlRD
10 Natural ImItator and Respond.
Quickly to Tralnlng-Its Mem =.
Dry Strong.

The blackbird. which belongs to the
thrush family, has strong initiative
powers, and has even been taught to
speak. There is not much variety In
its natural song, but it's voice has q
pure, fute-like tone and full volume.
The bird is very susceptible of being
trained, and when reared BY hand
from the nest Is capable Of forming
strong attachments and makes itself
a great favorite.
When Q blackbird IL six or eight
weeks old, his training should be be-
gun. Take him to q quiet room away
from any other birds, and each night
and morning whistle the portion Of
the tune you wish him to learn, or
play 1t on the flute. Feed him before
you begin, and put fat, lively worm
where he can see It. After you have
whistled or played the air. say TWEEN
ty times, stop, 80 that the bird may
have an opportunity of Initiating 1t.
II he should make the attempt, give
him the worm at once, praising and
caressing him meanwhile. He Will
soon begin to see why q reward was
given to him, and will not be slow in
trying to earn II. When once he has
learned the tune he will never forget
II, and 1t will pass into and become a
part of his song.
After the blackbird has completed
his education, he should be placed
near some other singing bird, whose
notes he would soon learn and blend
with his own.
Put his cage out Of doors whenever
the weather permits, and he will tell
you how pleased you have made him
But during the hot days Of summer
let him be well shaded and kept cool
as heat and dry air seem to affect his
voice. He will begin to sing In the
end Of February or the beginning OF
March, and viii continue until the fall,
II the summer is not too hot.

SEVEN PRESENT MANAGERS
WILL LEAD FORTH TEAMS IN
THE SOUTHERN NEXT SEASON

When the season of 1913 is begun it is
probable that seven of the present man
ayers in the Southern league Will lead
teams into the battles. Although it was
generally rumored that many heads
would fall into the basket at the con-
clusion of this season, indications point
to the fact that Chattanooga and Allan
ia are the only cities where new man
ayers will be found.
Carlton Wordsworth will surely lead
the Barons after two successful years of
1910 and 1911. Indications point to the
fact that he win win the pennant this
season and he is sure of his leadership
At Mobile, AIiaue Finn has made himself
solid with the fans and bosses by bring
ing up near-winner, He, too. will man.
age the same team next season.
Johnny Dobbs has already signed to
boss the Bilikens in 1913 and he has
started buying youngsters for 1913. He
has had many obstacles in his path to
success but it really seems as If he will
yet finish in first division. Bill Schwartz

SEASONS BATTLES

has been offered the leadership of the
Volunteers and he will probably accept
the job At the present time the Vols
are going good and have fine prospects
for next season.
Cholly Frank is manager, major stock
holder and general boss of the New Or
leans club and he is sure to lead the
Pelicans If he should SO desire. The
Dutchman has his club in third place
and is making fair Roadway with MS
bunch of Cleveland prospects. Indica-
tfons point to no change In the manage
ment of the Pelicans in 1913.
Billy Smith will probably lead the
Crackers. He has beed offered the chief
tain role with the I-ookouts but that he
viii lead the Crackers again in 1913 is
also certain. Seribes in both cities de-
clare this to be fact. At least. Billy
will manage in the Southern league
Bill Bernhard is in good" with the
Turtle fans and President Coleman will
probably offer the managerial job to the
same person. The only changes which
will be made in the Southern league will
be at Atlanta and Chattanooga. But
then seven present Southern bosses will
remain at the helm.

MANAGER WORDSWORTH HAS
HIS EYES UPON FEW YOUNG
PLAYERS FOR HIS 1913 CLUB

and Pitcher Grover of the Mayseld club
in the same circuit. Pitcher Monk
Priest has been bought from the Gads-
den club and Wasem, who was farmed
out to Bristol Of the Appalachian league,
will also be recalled.
Memphis has bought Outfie]der Cox
from the Meridian club and also Pitcher
Needles. II is understood that the Tur-
ties also have an option on Joe Wiley,
of the Talladega club, and he will re-
port IN the spring Besides this trio the
Memphis seribes say that Bill has sew
eral others under view.
Mobile has purchased wild Bill Luhr-
son from Talladega. Catcher Mueller of
the Meridian club, is also on the club,
while Mique Finn has his eyes on other
kids. Cholly Frank has the Yazoo City
farm and also a few youngsters at Beau
mont in the Texas league. Montgomery
recently added Ernest Walker n Birming
ham boy formerly with Bessemer. and d
brother of Dixie" Walker, and Babe
Adams of Selma. Walker has practically
oinched his position with the Billikens
while Adams will get a trial soon. Dobbs
says that he will bring many more in.
"Jawn" Cochran and Ray Baker are the
property of the Barons and 1t is prob
able that Cochran will get a trial in the
spring Baker has done excellent work
with the Knoxville club and he, too may
report in 1913. MUTT Ems Is hitting over
800 in the Central association and If
Wordsworth should want him it is probable
ttat the White Sox will allow lllm to re-
port 20 the Barons.
Tom Kane has been signed BY the Nor
folk club in the Virginia league, while
chaput and Randall are still with the
Gadsden club. Both had bad years. RAN
dali suffered throughout the season with
rheumatism in his arm while Charut had
TN of year until late in the season when
he lac a wonderful winning streak.
Green, Wall and Midkiff, three recruits,
were sold outright.
1t is interesting to know that MidlxiR
burned up the Texas league and has been
sold to the New York American club for
fall delivery. Rapp is with the Atlantic
City club In the Tri-State league.
Wordsworth will inject new blood into
the Barons of 1918 and he usually makes
a disco every season. Perhaps he
will ceveop another Smith or McTigue.
From his statement about next years
prospects he has fine lot of youngsters
in view.

AFTER BEING IN TRAINING
FOR MONTHS, GIANTS GO STALE
BY REUBEN A. LEWIS

In the opinion of many. major league
players and critics of the diamond the
Giants have gone stale" There is a
good argument to that effect The play
ers say the Giants have lost their
punch; the runners have become lag
CARDS; the pitchers are not pitching and
the fielders are ''all in"
The Giants have been In training for
II months During this time they have
played ball consistently and as the re-
suit have gone stale After having a
strenuous season in 1911 by winning the
National league pennant, the Giants then
took the steamers to the Pearl of the
Antilles where they played the various
Cuban teams.
4 greater part of the winter was spent
in playing the Castillians and then the
defeated National leaguers steamed
home. 1t was in January that the New

CRACKERS BATTLE
WITH THE BARONS:
LOOKOUTS FOLLOW

Mique Finn and his bunch of Baron
chasers viii have hard week to

to meet the Barons The Barons are
confident and that is a lot
Much of the lead with which the Bar
ons lead the other seven clubs has been
obtained through their victories over
the Crackers and the Lookouts. Espe-
eially have the rejuvenated Crackers
