In the National League the Giants
took two games from the Dodgers, the
Phillies twice tTOunced the Braves yes
terday, Cincinnati and Chicago broke
even in a double-header. and St Louis
took one game from the Pirates, the
other ending in a tie.
In the American League the Maps

with little spirit
Soon after the eleventh spasm Of
milling began Rivers backed toward
the ropes Richie, who had been
pcrsistently the aggressOr for several
rounds STROBE flat-footed after his
man. A light left took Rivers above
the belt line. and an equally light
right brushed his lower face. Not
that the blows lacked steam but the
fact that Rivers was retreating and
was not quite within range took the
edge Off the assaults
As the clip of Ritchie's dexter glove
grazed his chin. Rivers stood an in
slant with his back against the ring
boundary. His eyes did not begin to
duh like those Of a man who Is stung
but ne lurched forward and fell to

Ceiyed q genuine Touchdown smash.
Rivers Wanted No More.
When nine seconds had licked away
Rivers rose. Then the champion
stepped close and banged his right
against the Southerner's jaw. Even
that punch did not appear 10 strike
deep enough TO produce fun results
but Rivers was in the mood TO take
advantage OF anything that would
mean an end to the hostilities
He dived slowly to the carpet, the
palms of his hands and his knees
supporting him for an instant. Then
he fatteued down on his stomach,
with his head just raised sufficiently

view.

and held up Britton's glove. Sheriff
Marero declared the bout ceased to
be a boxing exhibition.
After the go Nate Lewis, manager
of Charlie White, stated that his pro-
tege had injured his left hand during
the third round and was forced to
rely on his right member during the
rest Of the route. However, this
should not take any of the glory that
goes with victory from Britton.
Britton a Marvel.
He proved beyond a doubt that he
is one of the greatest 1873 Founders
in the game to-day. His judge of
distance is wonderful and he is also
some puncher. In defeating White he

shade in the other three minute ses-

finish and appeared fresh enough to
go a number of more rounds.
Jack May Meet Richie.
Most of the fans who attended the
mill yesterday are of the opinion that
Britton would stand a great chance
of defeating Richie if the pair ever
meet. Promoter Tortorich stated that
he would get in touch with the cham
pion at once and try to close the mill.
White asked for another chance at
Britton, but it is doubtful whether he
will get the opportunity to get a re-
turn match with his conqueror for
some time. Charlie is still a little too
light to meet a boy of Britton's abili-
ty and hope to win. He weighed yes
terday but 129 pounds, while Britton
tipped the beam at 1856.

The low-down uniformly pruned tree also will produce more fruit, and of a quality superior to that of the tall tree, while the ease with which the fruit is picked from the low trees recommends them to all.
 The ends of all low-hang1ng branches also should be pruned back, so that one can pass under them on foot, or with vehicle in harvesting the fruit crop, which not only makes the picking handler, but avoids dam- aging the trees by peeling and break ing up the limbs.
 After the pruning is completed, all pruned limbs should be removed from the orchard, the smaller ones being utilized for filling up washes about the farm, the larger ones being hauled to the wood pile and used for fuel. Where limbs of considerable size have been sawed off, the stub should be given a thick coat of paint, which will guard against the wood cracking during some of the very warm days that usually come before winter sets in.
 Then this paint serves to hold the wood together during the severe freezing weather of midwinter.
 Where it has been necessary to cut down whole trees that were dead or badly diseased, note of these should be made.so that one can fill in their places next spring with new, young trees of the same varieties.
 It is also we'll to remember here that the old and diseased trees not only take up valuable space in the orchard, but they are liable to spread disease among the healthy trees, and they always harbor pests that are in furious to the entire orchard.

COkTIEGGn FEATURE
 run FARM TOOLS
Recipe for Preparation With Which to Treat Pieces of Steel
 or Iron Machines.

Do not get in such haste when put ting tools away as not to look after any that may need repairs. If this cannot be attended to at the time of storing the tools, place the piece in the workshop until more leisure time is available, and then attend to it. A great saving of time will be effected in this way, and will help along when the time comes when there will be a half dozen jobs, or more, to be at tended to at the same time.
 Here is an old recipe for prepara- ton with which to coat pieces of steel or iron machines to protect them from rust: Melt together one pound of lard and a lump of rosin as large as a walnut. Heat the lard and add the rosin, which must first be reduced to a powder. Any piece of machinery that.is coated with this mixture will be sufficiently protected. from danger of rust.
 Machines that have the proper care taken of them will last for years and give satisfactory service. And the owner will not be compelled to waste time in getting them repaired at some critical time when every minute counts so much; nor will he have to replace them with new ones every few years.

CARE OF POULTRY
 IN COLD WEATHER
Better to Have Small Flock in Good Condition Than Larger
 Number and Less Eggs.

The time is nearly here. when the hens will have to be kept in the house out of the cold and storm. Remem- Der that you must not try to keep too many hens in one house. Better a small flock in good condition and lay ing well, than a large flock with fewer eggs and twice the expense.
 Leaves are good for the litter, and now is the time to save some for the hens to scratch this winter. Rake them up while they are plentiful, and store them somewhere under cover SO that they will be ready for use.
 Save barrel of dry earth for the hens dust bath this winter. Mixed with some wood ashes, and dampened just little, it will be great help to the hens in keeping them free from lice. If box of it is placed in a sunny part of the hen house, the hens will enjoy bathing in 1t, and you will not need to use the insect powder SO often.

(By NJ. COvERDELL.)

The next step in order is the prun- ing of trees, as the seasons growth of wood is now thoroughly ripened and there will be no bleeding from the pruned branches, nor will there be any checking of development among the branches, both of which often comes as a result of spring pruning, since one is apt to put off doing this work till the sap begins to rise, or negleets to do it at all.
 Next years fruit crop depends largely upon the efficiency with which the pruning is done at this time. The uniform distribution of branches, height of the trees, and the health in general of all parts of them left for bearing fruit-all have their in du- ence. Branches should not be left so long and slender that they will not support a goodly burden of fruit.
 As rule, all water sprouts, those straight shoots running directly up- ward from the main branches, should be removed. Limbs that are seen to be partly dead or decayed should be cut back until one is sure no part of them is left, as it would but invite further decay, and the sustenance drawn by them would be a useless drain on the vitality of the trees.
 All tall, thick, or top-heayy trees demand close and careful pruning. Fruits which are reared high in mid air are not as exempt from the ac- tion of the wind as if they were low CT down. The top of the high tree itself is very apt to be caught in the high wind and damaged, perhaps ru ine& by being broken down or torn up bS the roots.
