runner. the umpire will call balk, and
the runner or runners will advance one
base"
In the American League, instead Of
permitting the base runner to advance
a base. he Is sent back and the pitcher
Is given a new lease on life.
The new National League rule was prob
ably formulated to offset the principal
objection to the American League meth
cd Of handling the play-preventing the
pitcher from purposely dropping the ball
to save himself in a pinch when a base
runner may have taken a big lead or
for any other cause.
The new National League rule undoubt-
eddy was framed as a check on the pitch
er. because an umpire cannot discrimi-
nate between an accident and an intent
OF the hurler when the ball has slipped
from his fingers without being pitched
properly to the batsman. The new rule.
however. does the pitcher an injustice
and the American League ruling is I'M
lair TO the base runner. The logical es-
cape from the difficulty would be to pass
rule leaving the ball in play when it
has slipped from the fingers Of the pitch
er. In that event the pitcher would be
watchful to prevent such an accident
or TO recover the ball speedily and the
base runner would not take undue lib
critics.
II Jimmy McAleer. of the Red Sox,
ever succeeds in inducing Frank Nayin
and Hughey Jennings to part with Ty
Cobb in exchange for Iris Speaker and
5000 check, he will have manipulated
the most remarkable trade in baseball
history. Cobb stands forth as the great
est baseball player of the past. present,
and, some are inclined to think of the
future. With the possible exception OF
Cobb. there never was an outfielder who
eNcelled the spectacular Tristan Speaker.
Speaker has been one of the real mar
vels OF the baseball world ever since he
showed his powerful bulk into a Boston
uniform a few years ago. Critics the
country over have consistently united in
ranking him second only to Ty Cobb and
indeed there are some wise men in this
land who think Speaker is an even more
valuable man to his club than Cobb
There is probably more truth than fiction
to the rumor that McAleer is endeavor-
ing to trade Speaker for Cobb. Cobb has
been accused OF being responsible for
much of the dissension that has existed
on the Detroit club. Because OF Speak
er's close friendship for Jake Stahl II has
been stated that he is not in harmony
with the new management, and il has
been contended that his presence on the
club would hamper Bill Carrigan in his
efforts to get a winner.

The pace was fearful. In the fifth game
Mclaughlin won a love game on his own,
and he went through Dixon's service on
the next for another love game, bringing
the tally for America to !. Hackett
ended the set by taking his service and
the set at 81. The playing time of the
set was twelve minutes, new record fol
a Davis cup set.
The Englishmen took the lead early in
the third set by shooting at Hackett.
McLoughlin was bit winded from his
terrific work in the second set, and he
was forced to slow down and allow some
of the work to fall on his partner. To-
ward the end OF the set there was a series
of the wickedest rallies at the net ever
seen on a tennis court. The 1ritishers
won the set at 60.
The Englishmen having the lead at
two sets to one. they opened the fourth
set full of confidence. 1t was the real
critical set, for a one stage they were
within a point of the set, and the
match, if the shot happened to come
off. When the tally was at 5-4 in
favor of the Englishmen they were
3o-alI. and just then Mclaughlin broke
his racquet with a terrific smash at
the ball, and he lost the point, putting
the Britishers 1870. Acting as cool
as IL it were the very first shot in the
match. the Californian got a new
racquet and won the game, snatching
the set out of the fire. 1t was the
greatest exhibition of nerve ever seen
by a tennis player. This brought the
tally sail. and all of a sudden Nc

To the untiring efforts of Barrow IS

Lime for Soil.

Mr.. o. c. Rostel, Marble, Washing
ton, writes as follows: please let
me know if our mountains of lime
rock here in Stevens County could be
utilized for commercial fertilizer by
grinding it fine without first burn
ing"
Unburnt but finely ground lime
stone is best for. correcting soil
acidity.
The use OF lime on soils is bene-
ficial in places where calcium is defi-
cient. Some crops required more cal
cium than others. This is especially
true of clovers. alfalfa, and other
leguminous crops.
Whether the soil requires calcium
depends upon its condition, and this
can be determined by one of two
methOds-either by close examina-
tiOn OF the plant growth or by the
use of litmus paper. If you find horse
sorrel present in large quantities it
will indicate that your soil requires
calcium, also, if>clovers do not grow
well it will indicate that calcium is
lacking.
By the use of litmus papers. which
may be purchased at most any drug
store, you will be able to determine
whether your, soil Is acid. Take a
small quantity of moist soil and press
it around the paper for ten or fifteen
minutes. II the blue paper is turned
to a pinkish or redish color, it will
indicate that your soil is acid and an
APPLICATION of lime will be beneficial.
There are several (at least ten)
forms of commercial lines on the
market. The best form to use is finel
ground limestone. First: because III
is cheapest, and, second: the effect
on the humus is not so serious as
with other forms oflime-especially
caustic or quick lime. The action Ol
finely ground limestone in its attack
on the vegetable matter is less no
ticeable than with other forms Of
lime. The amounts to apply depend
on how badly your sol requires cal
cium, and also upon the available SUI
ply of limestone. We have known ol
instances where as high as eight ton:
have been applied to the acre with
good results, and as low as a tor
and half has been used very sat
isfactOrily. The usual amount varies
from three to six tons to the acre
