Iney were lucky to get the SIDE out
at all. It was almost a case of fan
ming man to retire him, as Ray
Schalk and Red Kuhn, the double
gated receivers, were not making err
rOrs. The rest of the team was not
dependable. Most anything that was
hit went for a clean safety, and if the
SOx players were forced to stand in
front Of the ball they fought bought
lily, and easily repulsed the pill, with
great loss to the Hose crew.
Details of the bloody affair are not
palatabIe. Weaver made a pair of
costly errors, Rath one and Bodie
one. O'Brien was hit safely eight
times in five innings, seven runs and
four hits were registered off Doc
White before he could get a man out
in the sixth, and Kid Smith was
thumped for five safeties, though he
was not scored on.
Buck O'Brien made his debut in a
SOX uniform, and ran into misfortune
from the start. The former Red SoX
hurler was hit hard, but his new
teammates did not give him much
assistance. Buck Weaver piled trou-
BILE on the other Bucks shoulders by
tossing a single far out in right field
for one of the runs scored. This
cruel blow hurt the pitching Buck.
Heinie Wagner never treated him
like that.
Doc White pitched one of the
weirdest innings ever recorded in
baseball. A single, hit batsman, Ier-
rOr, single, single, error and home
run, in the order named, counted |
seven runs without a man being put |
out. When Doc started to fill the |
sacks again by walking HartzeIl, Cal |
lahan yanked the dentist, as he de- |
sired to get the side out before dark |
ness. Kid Smith was hit vigorously |
during four innings, but got by score
less.

The sagging stickwOrk is general,
throughout the team. Chase has dip

Weaver has gone hitless for some

John Collins is probably the worst
sufferer of the lot, so far as his pri-

"When Should You Invest Money For

A great many farmers are in doubt
about the ACCESSIBILITY of spending any
money on their land to build up its
fertility. In half way manner they
believe that phosphate. nitrogen and
potash are, good things all necessary.
II they were offered chance TO sheep
manure or other good stable manure TO
addsto their soil, they would hesitate
in the same way. The fact is they
have not become used 20 that kind of
thinking and they hardly know what
10 do. But the Old farm is in no doubt
IL generally welcomes any and all
kinds of fertilizer The fact is 10 is
getting hungry. maybe on the verge OF
starvation, bat the farmer does not see
the fact clearly. lie will admit TO
himself that crop raising Is good
deal more hazardous than II used TO be
that clover for instance is getting to
be- mighty risky venture. He will
admit that with all the stock he keeps.
he does not have manure enough. He
can see that. yet he still hesitates a
bout investing any money in helping
up his soil
The prime trouble lies in the fact
that he has never made himself a stu
