CONTROL OF THE BASEBALL
First Requisite of Pitcher Cannot Be
Too Strongly Emphasized, Says
Christy Mathewson.

The first necessity for a pitcher is
to have control of the ball, says
Christy Mathewson in st. Nicholas.
That can't be emphasized too strong
ly. A boy may be able to throw all
the curves imaginable, but II he
can't put the ball where he wants 1t,
the batter keeps walking around the
bases. and he will never win any ball
games. Therefore, / would, first of
all, advise my young readers to prac.
tice accuracy, until they can place
the ball just where they want to send
It. Let them pitch to another boy,
with a barn or fence as backstop,
and try to put one high. over the In
side, and then high over the outside,
and again low over the outside, and
keep up this practice patiently until
mastery Of the control of the ball IA
obtained. A boy will find that even
II he can't pitch curve. but has
good control, he will be able to win
many more ball games than II he has
lot of benders, but no ability to put
the ball where he wants 1t.

tcEMENT FEEDING FLOOR sEsT
No Better Foundation Can Be Had
Than Solid Clay SoII-No Ad-
vantage In Using Rocks.

In making a cement feeding floor
on ground underlaid with clay few
inches below the surface, remove the
surface dirt down to its hard clay
foundation. Then tap that down
solid and level, and put on the con-
crete made Of one part of Portland
cement, two parts Of clean, coarse,
sharp sand and four parts of crushed
rock or clean gravel, thoroughly
mixed dry, then wet and remixed,
right onto the clay.
No better foundation can be had
than solid clay soil. There is no ad-
vantage in putting down rocks over
solid clay, as they cause trouble in
the future. Put down three or four
inches Of such concrete, and before it
has set put down one inch of Port
land cement to two parts of clean,
coarse sand, mix and dry as before,
then wet and remix carefully, and
may be spread upon the coarser con-
crete.
This will make a durable floor.
Rocks and sand below are not re-
quired, and are no use in floor of
this kind.
