Cobb Keeps in LimeIight.

Ty Cobb has turned inventor. The
smuggling outf1elder of the Detroit
Tigers has made a bat which will
do away with the sting--not that
which is brought upon the pitcher
when Ty peels off a base hit. but
the sting which goes through the lat
ter's hands when the bat and ball
meet.
Cobb's new bat has a thin layer of
cork at the handle. This prevents the
bat from slipping and If successful
il will do away with the present
method of winding tape.
Should Tvs invention increase his
batting efficiency there will be much
mourning among American League
pitchers next season.

Charles Lincoln Herzog was duly
appointed manager of the Cincinnati

officially made manager.
He will play at shortstop, as did
Tinker. and guide the team on the
field. Herzog outlined his ideas of a
winning team to the board of direct
ors and they were approved.
Herzog said he believed in fast,
dashing team, much on the order
of the New York Giants, but added
he had no trades or sales in mind
at present.
Herzog is twenty-eight years old,
and was born in Baltimore. He is a
graduate of Maryland University. and
after short minor league experience
was signed by McGraw for the New

1908 and 1909.

Braves and played with that club

half of the season of 1911. when he

DAKOTA LIVE. STOCK
u SHOWS INCREASE

Grand Forks, Jan. 13.-Ample evil
dence of the growth of diversified
farming in North Dakota and also
some very interesting figures on in
crease in the value of live stock is
shown by the 1910 census bulletin.
1t is interesting also to compare the
increase by classes. Owing to the
large ranches going out of business,
there was a decrease in the steers
and bulls, the value of this class IN
1900 being s5,3S7, 1854, while in 1910
it was only $3,2s9,49s, but the value
of dairy cows increased in these ten
years from s4,C7S,576 to. sS,73s,46S 1t
will be seen by this that notwithstand-
ing the cutting down Of the ranches,
the value of all cattle gained from
s15,S1o,6s7 in 1900 to s11,711, 1893 in
1910. ,5s &.=5... >ss# n u!
The number Of horses more than
doubled during the ten years and the
value increased from $22, 72S, 511 to
$50, 461, 739.
There was also slight increase in
the number of mules. " ~
Hog raising seems to be fiourishing
as the number has increased from
191, 1913 in 1900 to 3s1, 500 in 1910, and
the value has gained from s9so.470 to
$3,152,so9 5$5
The sheep business IS on the de-
crease as the number is only about
one-half of what It was in 1909, but
the value is nearly equal to that OF
ten years ago. This decrease is main
" caused by cutting down Of ranch
lands.
