NEXT SUNDAY GAME

Ontario has been the mcst fr end
ly aggregation of ball players thi.
season and it is with regret that
Payette must bid them good bye
next Sunday in their last League
Game this season. The game is call
ed at 400 at the Fair Grounds SO
that the Payette Fans can go owe
on the Pony with the Payette Band
and Ball Team.
Ontario will make a strong effort
to take the last game from the Gray
hounds as Payette has won the eth
er three League games this season
played with Ontario although by
small scores, the first game being
to 0, the second IL to 5 and the
last to 4. Ontario came near win
ming from Weiser last Sunday The
score was l to l in the first. then
Ontario shut out Weiser in the sec
ond and scored one making it 2 to
1. Weiser tied in the third and in
the 9Th Smith for Ontario drove out
the longest hit of the season for a
home run but the bases were emp
ty and it only made the score one
nearer for Ontario. 6 to Z, and four
passed balls at the plate gave Weis-
er the game.
Payette will have one of the hard
est games of the season with Omar
10 Sunday if trying counts for any
thing as the Oregon city VII ce, tam
ly make last effort to take at least
one from Payette. Alexander has
been unable to pitch his best on
account of a catcher being unable to
hold his speed. Ontario will pre-
sent a new catcher next Sunday by
the name of Webb, the College of
Idaho catcher and the only man who
has been able to hold Alexander.
He is a heavy hitter and will be
dangerous man to the Grayhounds.
This will be the first chance the aus
have had to see just what Alexander
can do as a twirler.
The Payette Band has been Sc u:ed
to go with the Payette team to fur
nish music for the occasion and tie
Payette manager expects the larg st
crowd of the season to go from Pay
cite to help bid Ontario friendly
good bye in the Idaho Oregon Leag-
ne as Ontario has been the most
agreeable team to play with this
season.

New System of Grain Culture
To Be Tried at Highm00r Farm.

These figures give an idea of the rel
alive yield of grain per plant obtained
under the different methods of culture
However, il must be borne IN mind
that the yield of a unit area, an acre.
is n greater for the new system of
culture This is obviously due to the
small number of plants per unit area.
The greatest effect of these new SyS-
TENS of culture is manifested in the
immense increase in the productivity of
Individual plants. If some means or
methods can be devised whereby in "a
large acreage grain plants can be slim
ulated to higher productivity, possibly
through application of the principles
underlying the new methods cited here
in, The results will be of enormous
value To agriculture.
During the season of 1913 the Maine
Agricultural Experiment Station plans
To carry out at Highmoor Farm Sc
ries of tests involving a study of the
principles underlying these methods OF
Grain culture OF course these systems
will have to be modified to meet the
conditions existent in Maine. The sys-
tenn Of transplanting grains is too eN-
pensive ever to he of practical value IN
farming. However, the principles I'M
deriving these methods can be applied
in other ways which may prove to be
advantageous 10 the farmer. The
Zehetmaver method of culture i'll par
ticula. seems to he capable Of modl-
fication To meet our conditions. \ trial
of this method may lead to results OF
great practical importance.
