shipment of liquor from one point in
Georgia to another point in Georgia,
claiming that the stock was drayed from
Girard and loaded ON cars In Columbus,
Ga This case is pending in the courts
of the state As for the owners of the
whisky, 1t is claimed by the federal au-
thorities that they violated the federal law
in hauling the liquor improperly labeled
from one state to another. it is under
stood the government proposes TO sell the
liquor, valued at about $1,000, and appro-
pirate the proceeds.

passing of Snodgrass as a Giant reg
Ular, though he will probably be re-
tanned on the team, for the presen-,
at least. SnodgTass has been severely
PANIED during the past two worlds
series fights with the American
League for real or fancied misplays,
and has outlived his usefulness in
New York. Bescher is not his equal
as a sticker, but is faster on the
bases, and UNNECESSARILY superior in
the field.
Both MerkIe and Snodgrass are on
McGraw's bad books, and the word
has come from Japan, where the lit
tie corporal is on world tour, to dis
pose of the pair if something worth
while can be secured in return. An
indication of this feeling was had
yesterday when st. Louis was offered
Merkle, Snodgrass and Wilson for
Konetchy.
Art Butler, traded by Pittsburgh
to ST., Louis, was married yesterday.
His bride did not know of Arts mis-
fortune at the time.

jim Robinson, pitcher.
From any angle the edge seems to
be all in favor of the Cards. Miller
is not as strong a batter as Konetchy,
but is a better fielder and cannot
be classed as a weakling with the
stick. Mike MOwrey is a good third
basenlan, better than Dolan, but But
Ter is young conner, who has shown
lots of promise. Chief Wilson, a right
fielder, carries a cleanup punch in
his bat.
1t is in the pitchers that Higgins,
seems to have made the best deal.
Harmon is no wonder, though slight
ly better than the average. He will
not set the league afre. Robinson,
on the other hand, is a comparative
rookie, filings with his left hand, and
does his work well.
Joe Tinker is one man who believes
Clark was badly stung on the deal.
THAT boy Robinson is a fine pitch
er, and Jack Miller can play first
base every bit as good as Konetchy,"
is the way Tinker has the dicker
sized up.
A deal advantageous to both clubs |
was the shift of Herzog and Hartley
of the Giants to Cincinnati in ex-
change for, OutfieIder Bob Bescher.
This is bigger affair than is at |
first apparent, and points a shake-up
in the Giant battle line for next year.
Herzog, who can play shortstop as
well as third base, is slated to man |
age the Reds. The Maryland lad is a
star player. Whether he will have |
the usual trouble of Red managers
remains to be seen. Hartley is a |
young catcher of great possibilities,
and Hermann is especially weak be-

as they drew their weapons. 1--WE will
keep about fifty yards apart, yet al

me closely for signals and l will do
the same by you. Now come" Slow
ly they advanced, scanning each pos
sible place Of retreat and choosing
their way with the infinite caution of
providers who traverse a corridor In
the darkness of midnight. In the
tension of his suspense March could
not feel his heart pounding heavily.
The weirdness of the place was upon

Internal in its hideous desolation.

Then March, whose eyes were every

and then beckon to him to come by
a wave of his hand. Even across the
distance that separated them he could
see the pailor that had swept over
his friends sun-browned face, and
sick with fear at the unknown horror

life March lied to her.
Yes, an accident-the accidental
discharge of a revolver. But towards
the last thought you loved him most
after all. You never would answer
me, you know" She smiled up at him,

sweeter one anywhere.

thought my last hour had come! Did
not leave him and run to your arms?
And was that not answer enough?"
A faint whistle fell upon their ears,
thin, sibilant, momentarily .shrilling
louder. March glanced southwark
again. INLAY is only a mile away

take you Blackjack to the home
from which l shall so shortly take you

her closer. Her head was upon his
shoulder, her face upturned, her rick

UTILITY OF FRUIT THINNING
Cost Is of Minor Importance Compared
With Results Observation-Disclosures
ment Better Than Hand

The cost of thinning is of minor i'm
portance as compared with the results
obtained. At the Colorado expert
ment station 1t was found that an
average of $50 apples per hour were
thinned from the tree, making $500
apples for a day of ten hours. Allow
ing 81 per day for a mans wages
the cost of thinning bearing tree
was 81 cents. The thinning should
be done as soon after the June drop"
as possible, for experiments show that
1t is much better for a tree and re-
manning apples. 1t has also been
demonstrated that thinning is much
more easily done with an instrument
than by hand.
In summarizing the work that has
been done at the various state expert
ment stations, c. G. Vincent, associ.
ate professor of horticulture at the
Idaho station, draws these conclu-
sions:
That thinning pays in money returns
the first year.
The earlier the thinning can be done
the better will be the returns.
The best results are obtained by
leaving the apples from nine to ten
inches apart.
The systematic and annual uniform
thinning does much toward securing
an annual crop.

Most all of our orchardists realize
the value of lime-sulphur as a spray.
In order to make this spray the most
effective, it is necessary to know how
when and for what trouble to apply
it. The list of pests to combat with
winter strength lime-sulphur just as
the leaves are falling from the trees
in the fall are as follows;
Apple eankers, aphis eggs, moss
and licbens, pear leaf blister bite,
rabbits and field mice, red spider
eggs, woody aphis.
Some orchardists have found 1t has
been entirely satisfactory to spray
for these pests in the spring before
the buds open with winter strength
of lime-sulphur. Conditions govern
the time of application.
The following list of pests may be
successfully combated by applying
limesulphur. winter strength, in the
spring, while the buds are swelling:
But moth, eggs of apple aphis, eggs
of red spider, green peach aphis,
