PHILADELPHIA, Oct. S.-New
York fell upon Plank properly this
afternoon in the first half of the tenth
inning and before the Giants could be
stopped they had pounded in three
runs, winning the game to 0, and
tieing one to one in the series.
The Athletics were unable to do any
thing with Mathewson's delivery in
their last time at bat
The game was a pitchers contest
until the tenth, when the Giants got
three hits, and with the bases full,
with an error by Collins let in trio
of markers.
The Philadelphia team made a I'll
tanic effort to pull down the game in
the last half of the ninth, when Strunk
singled, reached third and was thrown
out at the plate in attempting to
score on a bunt.
With two men on bases in the Sec
ond inning the mighty Home Run
Baker, who only yesterday proved
worthy of his name by pounding out
q four-bagger, famed ignominiously to
the great glee of the Giant rooters,
who rent the air with applause for
Matty.
The Giants commenced to hit the
ball in the third inning. getting man
as far as third, when Doyle made the
last out with a fly to Oldring.
For the first five inning the game
was a real pitchers battle, and al
though the Athletics got the more
hits, the Giants alone had ben able to
get near a scoring position. In the
first five inings Plank famed five and
Matty two. Matty, however, had been
oh 70
scattered. Matty was going good in
the sixth, striking out McInnis and
Collins, and compelling Baker to hit
a slow one down the first base line.
SHIBE PARK, PHILADELPHIA,
Oct st was a sad-looking lot of
Giants who marched upon the field
here this afternoon. Fred Merkle was
limping in the first game, Fred Snod-
grass had his charles horse and
Chief Meyers was wearing bandage
about a finger.
Twenty thousand people were in the
stands an hour before the game was
scheduled to start The Athletics went
about their preliminary practice very
smoothly surely and with an air of
traces of nervousness. Half an hour
before the game an automobile was
presented to Walter Johnson, pitcher
of the Washington Americans, as a
reward for being the the most valu-
able player in the American league.
Athletics Favorites.
AS a result of the Athletics victory
over the Giants in the first game, the
Athletics were favorites in today's bet
ting, a number of wagers being made
at 10 to 9 on today's game. One Wall
street broker bet 5000 to $500 that
Baker would get one home run in
every game.
The gates of Shibe park were thrown
open at IL o'clock this morning. This
served as an official announcement
that the game would be played. The
weather was misty, but the grounds
had been we'll protected by covers dur
ing the night.
The skies were the color of lead and
a light mist covered the entire city.
Mack sent every one of his pitchers
out to warm up. On the Giants side
Mathewson, Tesreau, Demaree and
Fromme exercised their wings.
Umpires-Connolly at plate; Rigler
on bases; KLEIN in left field; Egan in
right field. The game started at
2:20 p. m.

Mr.. j. A. Redhead, Government and
State employee, in charge Of the Corn
Club work in Louisiana, and having
headquarters in Baton Rouge, was yis-
itor in Benton Monday. He visited our
school and distributed among the pupils
valuable printed matter on the subjects
of Tomato Culture, Hog Raising, Boys
Corn Club Demonstration Work, the
Organization of Girls Poultry Clubs,
ETC., making an effort to arouse such in
terest in these subjects as viii result in
the organization of clubs in the school.
The plan is, to say the least, common
dable, and the younger heads should
have the encouragement of their par
ents, who will no doubt freely operate
in this important step forward. It may
yet accomplish much in the s'Back to
the Farm" movement, now made text
throughout our broad land.
Mr.. Redhead stated that he expected
to spend at least three days in the parish
on this occasion and would visit as many
communities and schools as possible.
He was accompanied by Mr.. S. w.
Vance of VAUDEVILLE, special farm dem
onstration agent, who gave in informa-
ton of interest to the Banners readers.
He stated that Mr.. Rochenbach, in
charge of the Cotton Belts demonstra-
ton car, had recently secured 500 ears
of Bossier Parish grown corn, which he
stated would be prominently exhibited
on the car, because of their several SUI
perior qualities. A sugar beet given
him, grown by Mr.. E. S. Burt Of near
this place, and weighing nineteen
pounds, he thought about the finest he
had ever seen.
It happened that the writer, in in
quiring into conditions on the farm,
asked about Mr.. w. n. Pancoast, a
planter formerly residing on the Wesley
Arnold place, chiefly alluvial soil, and
what prompted him to remove from the
parish. He is now in Maine, but the
Banner still goes to him. Mr.. Vance re-
piled that he had recently seen letter
from Mr.. Pancoast in which he stated
that he was anxious to return to Che
parish. While speaking of the planta-
ton in question Comprising about 400
acres) he stated that it sold some years
since for $4,000, that Mr.. Pancoast paid
ST., 900 for it and sold it for ST., 600 to q
Mr.. Young, who values it at $25, 900. In
addition to his profit in the sale Of the
place, Mr.. Pancoast is said to have
cleared 5000 from the sale of hay, ETC.,
during his three years as resident.
Also illustrating the tendency toward
an increase in value and price Of lands
in Bossier Parish, Mr.. Vance stated that
the Phelps place, which, if we are cor
rectly informed, lies low and is more OF
less subject to annual overflow from the
waters of Lake Bodcau and Red Chute
Bayou, recently sold for $50 per acre
woods, fields and all, " he added.
