PIRATES MAKE RECORD
Wagner Drives Out Teams 10th
Three Base Hit.

! Pittsburg, Sept. 6.-The Pittsburg
club established a new record for 3-base
hits in the National League last Thurs
day, when Captain Wagner drove a
triple to the fence, making the team 5
total 107 for the season. The former
record for an entire campaign was 106
mark that was made by the Pirates
last year.
The major league record is 112. Two
American League clubs hold this rec
ord Baltimore made 112 triples in 1901
and Boston in 1903, the year it won the
American League pennant, and later
tie worlds championship.
With six weeks of the season left
Pittsburg may equal or even beat the
worlds record
Chief Wilson is, of course, the one
who had more to do than anyone else
with helping Pittsburg 20 break the Ma
ticnal League record, as he contributed
thirty three of the teams 107 g. baggers
The best previous individual record in
the National League was made by
Larry Doyle of New York last year
DOYLE made twenty-five triples Pre-
vious to that time the record was held
by Sam Crawford, now of Detroit, but
who, while a member of the Cincinnati
club in 1902, made twentyt three 3-bag-
gers.
Lajoie holds the worlds record, hav-
ing made forty-three triples in 1908.
Wilson will come close to this mark
Wilson's record with the Pittsburg
club is most remarkable. He has i'm
proved steadily ever since he Joined the
team.

SHE SAW The MURDER
salvation Army Girl to Testify in the
RoSenthaI Case.

New York, Sept. 6.-Interest in the
Rosentha1 case shifted today from the
criminal building to police headquar-
tiers where Cornelius G. Hayes, de-
posed inspector, was to be placed on
trial charged with making false state
ments concerning Police Commissioner
Walco. There was much speculation
as to whether Hayes taking the stand
would make good any of the state
nents attributed to him, notably that
he would reveal departmental secrets
embarrassing to the commissioner
Although Hayes yesterday denied in
writing that he had said he could
force Waldo's resignation within "a
hours, he has not repudiated other
features of his recent conference with
Mr.. Whitman and he is still expected
to be the chief witness at the John
Doe" inquiry into the police situation.
Technicalities promised to delay the
start of the trial today. 1t was point
ed out that Commissioner Waldo had
temporarily reinstated Hayes yester-
DAY to get from him his written denial.

lawyers that even this brief reinslate-

New York, Sept. 6.-Major League
baseball players formally launched their
new protective organization today. 1t
is known as the National and Ameri-
can League Baseball Fraternity and its
certificate of incorporation was signed
by Supreme Court Justice Delaney. Ac-
cording to the petition for incorpora-
ton, its object is to foster fraternai
feeling among the players in the two
big leagues. Dave Fultz, former base
ball and football star. who was large
~ instrument in bringing the new
movement to head, is presid5-t of the
association.
While the articles of incorporation
have not been made public. it is gen
mutual protection to demand repre-
sehtation OF their brotherhood in the
councils of organized clubs. The call
t OF? the organization resulted from the
difficulties of Ty Cohb which nracini-
tated a strike among the Detroit team

STRAWBERRIES, AND HOW TO
GROW THEM

Select from your strawberry gar
den a sandy soil that is naturally
moist, but not wet, ploW deep and
let it be ten days, broadcast with
stable manure and wood ashes, about
a ton to the acre, disk in the ferti-
lizer If you have no disk plow,
pillow in the old fashioned way with
long scooter 3-inches wide, puIver-
ize the soil we'll; lay off rows feet
wide, set plants IL to IA inches
apart taking care not to set them be-
low the crown. Be sure to set them
deep enough to secure good root sys-
tenn, as you will have no berries if
the crowns do not get good growth,
the larger the crown the better the
berry.
To cultivate, clear between the
plants with hoe all the grass and
weeds, hoeing lightly near the plant,
not disturbing the crown, with a.
small turn plow, run two burrows
on either side of the row throwing
up a soft bed. With a garden rake
level off the bed. If convenient dis
tribute just outside the bed old leaf
mould or woods earth. A second
cultivation is made by cleaning the
weeds and grass with a hoe and
throwing a bed as in the first cult
walton, when clean and well pulver
lied put a thick coating of pine
straw or hay entirely covering the
bed With your hand draw all the
plants through the straw so that the
berries will be clean and glossy.

wish to have larger handsome ber-
ries, make a liquid from the follow

soaked in 20 gallons of water. Fill
a watering pot and spray between
the plants or raise the straw just a
little and wet the ground and put
the straw back. Do not wet the foil

can add to this quantity enough
to water as many as you like. For
home use you could add half cup
of nitrate of soda to the 20 gallons,
which makes more fruit, but it de-
Gays fast in shipping, therefore it is
best to use it only ON berries for
home consumption. The woods
earth makes firm, pretty colored ber-
ries. Try this for strawberries and
write the results. You can cut run
ners back and make better berries,
but they do not hurt perfect flower
ing berries much to stay on with
the above cultivation. If you clip
runners the crown plant will yield
fine berries the second season. The
illustration shows how to set them.
