PULLMAN "BOOSTERS"
WIN FROM POTLATCH
Local Ball Tossers Journey to Mill
Town and Win Seven to Three
Walker Pitches Good Game

The Pullman Boosters last Sunday
journeyed to Potlatch and won a fast
game of baseball from the Mill Town
team by a score of to 3. Walker
was on the mound for Pullman, and
aided by gilt-edged support at the
critical periods, won his game handi-
ly with plenty to spare The Pot
latch team has been playing top
notch baseball all season and the
victory, while deserved, was some
what of a surprise to the locals, who
played their best game this season.
The features of the game were the
pitching of Walker who struck out
nine men, passed two, and allowed
only eight scratchy hits; and the
broken nose received in practice be-
fore the game by Shortstop VanDorn
The latter feature, however, had the
desired effect as Van" accepted his
seven chances without an error and
was responsible for three of Pull
mans seven runs.

Summer Session

On last Friday evening the first
of series OF interpretive readings,
followed by socIal hour and re-
freshm ents, was given for the sum-
mer school students at the college in

Among the writer's selected for the
occasion were Walter Savage Ian

ment and form; Edward Fitzgerald,
including selections from Omar

permanent; Clarence James Mangan
representing Irish lyrics, including
My Dark Irish Rosaline," and
Burns, Scott and Stevenson, also rep
resenting the Irish temperament and

English temperament and Arthur

as representing the virile spirit of
the age.

HOW LATE MATCHED CHICKS
MAY BE MADE PROFITABIR

In the first place | might say that
late Matched chicks are not gener.
ally a profitable fowl to keep, but
Instead, a source of trouble and ex
pense. Oftentimes, the pullets do
not begin to lay until the opening
of spring.
By late Matched we mean matched
after the middle of April or the first
OF May. These chicks raised through.
out the warm summer months never
develop properly for egg production
and have tendency toward vermiu
and disease which we find very det
rimental If we wish results. How.
ever, If such chicks are Matched BY
mistake or otherwise, ! suggest thai
they be properly taken care Of and
fed.
In order that these chicks be kept
healthy they must receive special at
tention right from the start. Keep
the earth slightly moist in the yards
by sprinkling with a hose once OF
twice week. Fresh water in clean
ard sanitary vessels should be kept
before the chicks at all times. Pro
vision at this time of the year must
be made for shade, and oyercroWd-
ing must be avoided. The co0ps
should also be kept clean and SAM
tary and well ventilated, thus escaP
ing many losses from disease. ID
al, cases free range should be pro
vided when the chicks are six 70
eight weeks of age.
From the beginning feed these
chicks a variety consisting of wheal
corn and oats as the principal gran
ration. Abundance of green FOOD
such as alfalfa and clover, and some
form of animal feed as milk and pure
beef scraps should be supplied "
them. Feed all grains in a litter ana
require the chic to exercise Tor y
until ready to fatten for Market
During the summer the bioiief
market prices are low, SO the mOfe
II ofitable was to dispose OF thess
fowls, pullets as well as cockereR
would be to sell them as roastefs
These sold just before the hohda
trade will bring the best prices. fu
two weeks before marketing plsU
the fowls In pens or crates. ~
birds should not be kept longer tnas
TO condition them for market. Ever
day beyond that time they are
source of expense. Under props
management such fowls can be reau
lily and cheaply fattened and maui
marketable.
Equal parts of ground oats, NAV
dlings and corn meal and 20 per css'
beef scrap moistened with sour inh'
and fed three times daily, all ~
fowls will eat up clean at each lev,
ing, removing the feeding trous,
when the birds have had sufIic'-
feed to satisfy them. The sSr
amount of protein may be addeu

ter I send you the amount I lost
to you in poker last night and which
I gave my word of honor to pay to-
day.
thus keep my word of honor. but
before you take the money I have
something to ask you.
I was just about to put the money
into an envelope to send it to you
when the bearer. Herr Pollmann. en-
tered. I was so surprised to see him
that I dropped the bills on my desk.
You will understand this when tell
you that for long time have owed
him an amount almost similar to the
one 1 lost to you.
Il see I came in lucky moment"
he said. 'It was my intention to re-
mind you OF your debt to me and 1
notice that you are flush"
You are mistaken" I felt COM
PEELED TO answer. II must necessarily
use this money to pay very pressing
debt"
Il have never pressed you for pay

owed me this money for long time.

mand. a payment now. / need the
money very badly myself. or / should

money or who will lend me any

but. much as should like to. l can
not give you this money. The debt /
must pay today is very pressing
But how can any debt be more
pressing than yours to me? I saved
you when you were in a desperate

days. but he insisted that he could

So here. my friend, you have the
whole case. I consider myself bound
by my word of honor to you. Debts
OF honor are debts of honor. but beg
OF you to release me from my word
OF honor merely for eight days.
am convinced that Herr Pollman's
position is such that postponement of
the repayment of my debt to him
would ruin him. He once helped me
In the most unselfish manner when I
was desperately embarrassed, and I
should hate to see him ruined for my
sake.
1t will make no difference to you IL
you don't get the money for another

If you consent to release me from my

Pollman. Sincerely yours, X.

"When a Yale man returns to
Yale"
Professor Taft spoke slowly as
one who feared to trust his voice
too far.
Lapson lyceum, crowded TO its
doors, was suddenly still. In the
front rows sat hundred and
fifty seniors-iust twice the num-
her who elected to study constitu-
tional law last year. Behind them
was the student body, rank on
rank, grave, young faces, all
turned toward the rostrum. Over
them an appreciative, eager pub
lie leaned from the galleries.
President Taft that was, Presi-
dent Taft that Is, was about to
open the first day of his college
course. The stiffness was abso-
lutte.
"Gentlemen, submit, for
your consideration" he be-
gan, with no trace of con-
descension in the courteous
phrase.
And then presently he
stated a political theory, in
terpolating a patent, ~ be-
lieve," and the personal pro-
noun was honestly modest,
not arrogant as another
might make it.
He was so absolutely natural
with his college class that when
passing reference reused a politi-
cal ghost he and his students sa-
luted the spectre with tolerant
smiles.
Il must get the hang of the
schoolhouse," was Professor
Taft's modest explanation when
suggesting the lecture series
which has already become the
most popular course given by any
member of Yale's faculty. Next
year the professorship will call
for two lectures each week be-
fore the seniors in the academic
school and two other hours with
the students of the law school!

Due to a difference of opinion
on this question suit will proba-

The cashiers recently asked
the commissioners to pay prem.
