stature earned him the sobriquet
OF Kid in the baseball world.
Discovered by Mack.
NO less a parsonage than Connie
Mack discovered Foster playing on
, the lots in the Windy City. He at
tracted the attention of the Ath-
letic leader. who thought he recog-
nized big league caliber in the
youth. Mack recommended him to
Harry Wolverton, then manager of
the Williamsport club in the Tri-
State league. This was back in
1908, and during that season Fos-
ter made his debut in organized
baseball under the guidance of
Wolverton.
He covered short field for the
Williamsport team for one season,
being drafted by the Jersey CITY
club of the Eastern league in 1909.
He did splendid work for the
Skeeters, winning many games by
his heavy stickwork. So well was
he liked by the club that an Of
fer OF $4,000 was turned down for
his services, only TO lose him by
draft.
Tigers Drew Youngster.
The Detroit Americans drew
Foster, and Jennings, having a pie
thora of infielders. turned him over
to the Yankees After a tryout in
1910, the kid was sold to Rochester
for $1,000 on an optional agree
ment. He helped John Camel win
a pennant in the International
league. His work was of high class
order while with the Rronchos, still
the big league scouts did not cause
any stampede trying to corral him.
1t was thought that the New York
club had strings on nearly every
player on Cancels payroll.
Mike Kahoe, the Washington
scout, liked the way Foster per
formed in the field. After investi-
eating and learning that he was
owned by the Rochester club, there
being no strings on him, Kahoe
bought him with Dan Moeller and
Chester Spencer, another infelder.

practice this afternoon. Extra
careful watch is being kept around
the field and no one is allowed to
even stop in the proximity of the
practice ground.
AS a whole, the team will Just
about reach their climax Saturday
and Atlanta fans should witness a
game that will be equal in fight
and hard playing to the famous
Yale Harvard and Army Navy
games of the East.
There will be no intercollegiate
game in Atlanta on the 23d. but
there will be an extra good game of
ball played at the flats between the
scrubs and the Seventeenth infan-
try from Fort Mcpherson. The
scrubs are In fine shape and well
coached, while the soldiers have a
heap of weight.

How Georgia will direct her at
tack is an unknown quantity, even
here. to the closest followers Of the
Red and Black success. The team
Is working behind closed gates and
gives out but few tips, whether it
will be line plunging, end running
or forward passes it has not been
announced. but it takes no sage to
dope out that Techs line must be
able to stand lot of terrific plung-
ing and battering. The Yellow
Jackets, on the other hand, will be
at a decided disadvantage in can
tering their attack on McWhorter,
the great halfback, and not watch
ing the other Georgia backs. Bow
den has been going at a great clip
since he was switched from end to
half, while Paddock and Thompson
will bear watching by any team.

SCRUBS GIVE VARSITY
A HOT TIME AT TECH

TIME Tech scrubs rubbed 1t in
on the varsity in the last
hard scrimmage of the
year at the flats. This was
the last real workout, and it
was a grand finale to the hardest
season the scrubs have ever had
trying to develop varsity out of
new material.
The big team was on the defense
most Of the time, but their defense
was not as good as 1t could have
been by a long shot The scrubs
bucked the ball for a while and then
when touchdown was needed ran
around rthe4ends for 1t. The var
sity, however. is working well to-
gether on offense and are all in
pretty fair condition.

The Department Of Agriculture has ready
for distribution through Representatives in
Congress !. 900 bushels Of seed dasheens. the
semi-tropical tuber which, it is expected.
will take the place Of Irish potatoes in the
Southern States This is the first season
in which such distribution will be made.
The new potato substitute. which has a
hairy coat and has been grown with much
success in Florida, comes from Central and
South America. and will grow in the moist
warm regions Of the South. which are fatal
TO the Irish potato. 1t has been tried at
the banquets OF the National Geographical
Society and pronounced decidedly good. Il
can be boiled or baked. or cooked in any
other way potato can be used. The taste
is farther more meaty than potato. Some
who have eaten the dasheen say there is
a suggestion Of roasted chestnut about it,
and others that II tastes as though very
slight addition Of gravy had been made to
potato.
Tests have shown that a crop Of 400 to
$50 bushels an acre can be raised.

Better than promises is President-elect
Wilson's remark that he is Through with
statements" and is now to do some hard
thinking preparatory to action.
Every ballot cast for Governor Wilson
commanded action The country has been
ready for action for four years at least. 1t
was the urgency of the popular call for
| action which made the third-party move
ment possible. It was inaction which was
punished in the overwhelming defeat of
the Taft Administration.
For these reasons we have no sympathy
with the assurances heard on all sides
that Democratic success is not to disturb
business because the party will be exceed
ingly cautious and slow in all that il does.
A better use of words would be to say that
business is not to be disturbed because
Democratic success is to be followed quickly
by necessary action.
Nothing can now be more distracting to
every legitimate interest than Democratic
timidity and indecision. This is what bu-
siness fears. II was the belief that Demo-
cratic success would be followed by imme-
date reforms in the tariff which gave COM
merce and industry hopefulness throughout
the summer and fall. The people are pa
tent, but they are human.
Most of our revolutionary radicalism
springs from governmental inaction. There
has been action enough of late years when
the great interests wanted anything. Stag
nation has appeared only when the people
wanted something. Business men do not
need to be told that conditions such as
these are more dangerous than any change
Of Administration or any reversal of party
majorities in Congress. Business knows
that reform is overdue.
Practically every question now pressing
for settlement has been under considera-
ton for years. The will of the people has
been expressed more than once There
can be no doubt of il. If those who have
received the latest popular mandate are
not prepared to act on the 18th of March
next they never will be prepared to act.
Rights withheld are refused Justice de-
layed is denied. Action deferred may be
abandoned. The assurance most needed
by business at this time is that the Demo-
Gratis at Washington will be prompt, that
they will be bold and that they will be
efficient.

A Visit To The Rockville Union
Cemetery.

Mr.. Editor Much credit is due the
ladies who have this fine and well-kept
cemetery in charge. The beautiful terraced
grounds, laid off in nicely graded walks and
drives, the well-aHanged shrubbery, only
enough to make this beautiful city of the
dead show that some great mind thought
out the design and then executed it, The
large oak trees, all apparently planted to
harmonic with the surroundings. The
artstically carved beautiful monuments,
comparing well with any city cemetery.
Upon inquiry we found most all Of the lat
ter were executed here in Rockville. The
kind and obliging superintendent. who
takes a delight in showing visitors the
courtesy they deserve when they come to
visit the graves of their departed friends
and relatives. The ladies have done won
ders with this cemetery. They built the
fine cottage, and lately enclosed the GENE
terry with neat iron fence Any COM
munity should feel proud of this beautiful
spot, and should encourage every effort to
keep il in such fine condition.

How To Preserve Books.

United States Consul Hanna. Of George
town, New Guiana. presents the following
as a sure exemption from damage by cock
reaches. wood ants and other destructive
insects. He says that books painted with
a compound consisting Of one-half ounce
Of corrosive sublimate, one ounce Of car
bolic acid and two pints Of menthylated
spirits every three or six months are ex-
empt from the ravages Of yermin, whether
in the tropics or In cooler climates. To
make the formula thoroughly effective he
says that the books should be painted all
over the outside when closed and inside
thoroughly at the seam Of both back and
front covers, and that with this treatment
the most valuable archives can be kept in
good condition.
