According to statistics compiled from
official reports by the Charlotte Chron-

a little more than 100000 bushels
OF corn. which is quite an advance
from the 34.S1S.o0O bushels produced
In 1900 The average yield last year
WAS 1872 bushels to the acre. against
1878 bushels to the acre twelve years
ago! After the Boys Corn Clubs have
had few more years to get in their
work and the farmers become more
familiar with the Importance OF seed
selection and proper cultivation North
Carolina Will be producing thirty TO
forty bushels to the aero with an acre
age that will give more than one
hundred million bushels or more a
year.

AonIe Tree Phenomena

A most surprising as well as dis tinctive Bisbee feature for this sea son of the year is an apple tree in full bloom. It is in the yard of W. N. Edwards, who resides at the old Rod gers property. between Brewery ave. and Opera Drive. The tree bears about a thousand flowers, is in full bloom and the buds and new leaves are beginning to appear. Mr. Edwards informed many of his friends yester- day of his strange possession and in consequence many of them called to see the tree. Old timers say that they never saw or heard of anything like it before in this country. Ed wards said that he, would take the matter up with the horticulturists of the University of Arizona to ascertain the cause of the blossoms appearing at so unusual a time

much whether we give him a good
ball to throw or a bad one.
1T is because he can do all these
things that | class Ed higher
even than Jimmy Archer, and I've
seen Archer catch quite a few ball
games. Archer is in a class by
himself picking base runners off
their bases. but | doubt very much
whether he can recover a bad ball
and get it away as swiftly and ac-
curately as Sweeney.
Sweeney was probably never in
better shape to start a season than

about the face, but he strips light

a year ago. His throwing has been
almost phenomenal, and his bat

US with the Walshs and Planks

So that Sweeney, in addition to
having to reach all over the infield

close tabs on the base runners and
get the ball away from him so
rapidly that our deficiencies along
this line will not count too heav-

No catcher with a shorter reach

Seems Set to Win Place in Hall of Fame

ers or more are being tried out in
Southern camps now Fully 100
will go through the whole season.
And picking hero out of 200 play
ers. less than half of whom you
have seen, is considerable Of
task.
But then consider the phenom-
'enal case Of Mr.. Bailey.
Last year he had about as much
incentive to play ball as Sid, the
Bat Boy. The team was shot to
rags. 1t was an all-joy aggrega-
ton. Half Of them were fight
ing booze.-and a quarter were
Strengthening it. Hemphill got his
signals crossed on salary, and
Bailey wasn't setting what he
thought he ought.
Question: But what did the old
boy do?
Answer: 1. Batted .315 (second
among the regulars of the league).
2. Hit for SO extra bases.
3. Stole 10 bases
4. Scored 80 runs, more than any
other player in the league-on a
team that finished an awful LAST.
F they get Harry satisfied in the
matter of salary and the team
goes pretty strong, what do you
suppose Harry is going to do this
year? Why, the old lobster will
bat about 1856. steal 40 pillows, and
field like a fend.
OF course baseball is gamble,
and Bailey might have a wretched
year But If ne plays as much
better as he ought to-loOk out,
Records!
