If the umpiring at Athletic
Park in Council Bluffs is always
as it was yesterday it is not
much wonder that the Merch-
ants are not beaten very often
or that 80 many games break
up in rows. We are too modest
to claim that all the runs made
by the Merchants were handed
to them, but there were two de-
cirions of the back alley order
that sure started the fireworks.
When plain foul balls go for
home runs with men on bases
there isn't much use. The UNI.
piring got so rotten that the
Council Bluffs rooters made fur
of the game and a good many
left.
There were several bright
spots in the game even as il
was. Jones' spectacular field.

is available. Put n few inches OF soil
over the manure. and after the first
intense heat has passed seed may be
sown
The glass should be raised to give
air on all fine days when the
weather is warm, and the bed must
be kept moist.

Grated Nut Trees.

DR.. Morris has found that in his or
chards near New York city. such
grated chestnut stock will begin to
bear in from two to four years after
the gratis are set. Southern pecan
growers are securing surprising re-
turns by grating and top working ma
tive trees with high class stock OBJ
tanned by breeding to secure the quail
ties desired. The same is true of the
walnut and hickory nut in Il few
instances in several eastern states.
and unless some of the keenest, far
sighted men closely in touch with the
commercial food problems are mistak-
en-. nut growing is about to enter upon
4 period of expansion in the east
ard north, as well as in the southwest
and Pacific coast states.
