Mobile June 23-(Special.- Effective
pitching by Southpaw Bill Foxen for the
Birmingham team this afternoon defeated
the Mobile Gulls, the league leaders, and
pulled their standing down some. the
score being to 1. Foxen really should
have scored shutout for the visiting
team, as the error of ELAN In the seventh
was a bad one. allowing Sentell, the first
man who reached third in the game, to
score. 1t was Foxen's day to win and
tho manner in which he handled the old
baseball from Birmingham viewpoint
was excellent, such heavy batters as Rob-
ertson, Jacobson, Paulet and Schmidt be-
ing unable to get the ball out of the
infield
Mcbride featured in left field with a
long running catch and the work of First
sacker McGilvery, getting several bad
and low thrown balls. was very clever
Knsley, who is threatened with an at
tack of appendicitis, is out of the game
and Carroll took his place today.
The umpiring of KERN on balls and
strikes was very off color and he made
both pitchers wrathy throughout the con-
test. In the ninth Messenger was en-
titled to stolen base, but Umpire Wright
could not see it that way.
Barons Register Early
Both teams were blanked in first in
ming. but the Barons began their run
getting in the second inning. Mcbride
who led off. was safe on Stocks error
of his easy grounder. and advanced on
McGilvray's sacrifice. Mayer singled to
right, Mcbride going to third Carroll
hit sacrifice fly to left and Mcbride
scored, while Mayer advanced to second
ELAN dropped a long fly nearly to the
rightfield fence. which fell in Robertson's
rands, but Immediately dropped out and
Mayer scored Ellam chasing to second
before the ball got in the diamond again
Foxen ended this inning by going out on
g. fly to short.
In the third a base on balls to Marcan,
a sacrifice by Messenger, and single. by
Mcdonald scored Lii. Another run was
added in the fourth after Mayer flew out
to third. Carroll walked and stole sec
ond. ELAN was given a free ride. Car
roll attempted to steal third and was out
by narrow margin. FoXen rallied
with a single and scored Ellam. Marcan
flew out to second.
Battle Is Cinched
In the fifth the visitors cinched the
game on Hogg, who had been poorly sup
ported up to this time Messenger sin
gled and stole second. Mcdonald who
had something in his eye, famed. Nc
Bride was given life when Stock erred
on his grounder. Messenger scoring and

ter by the attorneys for the local OPP
ton committee asking that an cleo
ton be called in Pulaski county for

GAS COMPANY SPENDS MILLION.

Louisville, Ky.-One million dollars
will be expended by the Louisville Gas
and Electric Co. upon its proposed nat
ural gas belt line around Louisville,
according to Gen. George H. Harries,
president. President Harries said that
amount was an estimate of the cost
of the construction of the line and of
reducing stations which will be built
at various points. All necessary rights
for constructing the belt system, which
virtually will encircle the city, accord
ing to Gen. Harries, are embraced in
the franchise given the company under
the merger ordinance. AS soon as en-
gineers working on plans have CON-
p1eted their work, he said, ground will
be broken. He said that the belt line
will be ready when the natural gas
pipe line from the West Virginia line
enters Louisville.

TWOFOLD PURPOSE
TO AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION
WORKS IMPROVEMENT IN IN
DiVIDUAL AND INCOME.
Interesting Paper Issued BY Kentucky
Experimental Station-Advance-
ment in Soil Improvement

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Lexington, Ky.-Prof. T. r. Bryant.
, superintendent of the extension di
vision of the Kentucky experiment sta
ton here, in a circular Just issued and
entitled Agricultural Extension and
the Rural Community" says, in part:
I'VE hear much nowadays about agri-
cultural extension work, demonstra
ton farms, boys corn clubs, better
farming methods and a large number
of other comparatively new agricul-
tural enterprises, but few people really
get a clear conception of what is to be
accomplished by such work. Agricul-
tural extension work is accomplishing
a two-fold purpose; first, in enabling
farmers to realize greater cash in
come, improving their land while so
doing, and, second, in producing a re-
fiex action upon the farmer and his
family which will enable them to i'm
prove themselves even more than they
improve their farms. The two phases
of the work go hand in hand, but tho
latter is, after all, the more funda-
mental and important. Many people
look at this problem from the wrong
point of view. 1t must be clearly I'M
derstood that the fundamental i'm
provement must be in the individual
and the home. Frugal care in the mat
ter of home provisioning in the way
of pleasing variety of fresh fruits
and vegetables in summer, the same
properly canned or winter, the install
lation of few additional home conve-
niences and labor-saving devices, all
go far toward making the home better.
AS a simple example, high stool for
the kitchen to be used while peeling
potatoes, washing dishes, etc, will con-
serve enough of the energy of the over
worked wife and mother to encourage
her to read awhile after supper, gain
| ing new IDEAS, and to be the attractive,
Frightening personality that she
should, instead of the uninteresting
drudge that she too frequently is.
Such improvement in mind and spirit
proves contagious and the entire home
stead is made better"

who was hunting on Newton Griffith S
farm, near Simpsonville. Floyd is a

trees on Mr.. Griffeth's place for use in
his trade. Thompson saw the branches
of the trees shaking and fired at
Floyd's hand, which he mistook for a
squirrel. The shot peppered Floyd
from head to foot, and three of them
are believed to have penetrated the
stomach and produced internal inju.

HEALTH REVIVAL"
CAMPAIGN IN CHRISTIAN coUN-
IN FOR STAMPING OUT Dis
lsE is LAUNCHED.
Typhoid to Begin August 4-WiII
Continue Six Weeks.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Hopkinsville, Ky.-Final prepare
tons were made for the launching OF
a great health campaign in Christian
county to be started on August 4 and
to continue six weeks. DR.. A. T. Nc
Mccormack, of Bowling Green, state
sanitary inspector; DR.. W. w. Rich
mond, of Clinton, member of the state
board of health, and DR.. w. A. Jockey,
county health officer, completed the
plans for what DR.. Mccormack calls
a health revival" In this matter the
state board will work in connection
with the Christian County Medical So
ciety. War was declared upon the
hookworm, tuberculosis and typhoid
fever. A force of microscopists from
the state health Office will be on duty
to analyZe the waste matter and the
sputum of every man, woman and
child in the county that may be sub
mitted. The analysis, with medical
advice and educatiye circulars, will be
mailed to the sufferers entirely free of
charge. DR.. A. G. Curry, of st. Charles,
will conduct special work aimed at
the stamping out of tuberculosis.
Stereopticon lectures will be given in
every schoolhouse in the county and
dispensaries or revival meetings will
be held at the following points, the
dates to be announced later: Crofton,
Empire, Haleys Mill, Kelly, Carl, Era,
Macedonia, Gracey, Pembroke, Fair
view, Howell, Lafayette. Hopkinsville
is to be the headquarters for the work
and the same sort of campaign will be
conducted in every section of the city.
DR.. Richmond states that with the CO.
operation of the citizens, typhoid, tu-
berculosis and the hookworm can be
stamped out in this county and that
therefore the first gun of the campaign
would be a plea for cooperation. The
Christian county fiscal court appro-
priated $500 and the state will furnish
the remainder of the money needed
for the campaign.

Bath county has had few light show
ers during the last few days, but they
did not relieve the drouthy condition
to any appreciate extent. There has
not been rain enough to soak the roots
for more than two months. Crops of
every kind have about burned up and
many things are beyond remedy. A
number of the farmers have been set
ting out tobacco plants this week after
each little shower, as it has been so
dry all summer they could not get
their plants all reset. Such thing as

wATEH FAMINE is THREATENED

Greenville, Ky.-Greenville is threat
ened with water famine as well as a
disastrous drought On account of the
diminishing amount of water in the
lake of the Greenville Light & Water
Co. the city was compelled to stop
using water for street-sprinkling pur-
poses, it being found that at the pres
ent time the water in the lake is lower
than it has ever been in the late fall
and was receding at the rate of eight
inches week. Unless Unprecedented
rains should fall it is thought that the
city will be without water before the
fall rains set in.
