dreds of bushels of trout are being

trout retailed in the markets of Della

this year they can be had for 25 cents

thousand we're sold in the local mar
ket at ] cent each.
The exceedingly mild winter was
responsible for an early run Of shad
and herring in the Nanticoke and Wi
comico rivers and in years before.
when the fishermen we're hardly
thinking of overhauling their nets
and seines. this season was on in full
swing. Shad and herring in the
waters of this section are very plen-
tiful. and on several occasions the
catches have been so large that nice
roe shad could be bought at diff
ferent points as low as 20 cents
apiece Herrings sometimes sold FOR
3 cents a dozen.
The unusual abundance of fish and
the numerous miraculous catches
have not affected the demand to any
great extent. and the prices have been
normally high. At the end of last
week every fishing skif along the
Nanticoke river has cleared its owner
over $500 in profits. aside from afford

President Sweet issued instructions
that the jumps allow no "beefing" dur
ing the games. Last season the UNI
pires held the situation well in hand,
but this season they will be more au-
tocratic.
The instructions issued by President
Sweet are:
To avoid accidents, insist on catch
ers taking their masks and protectors
with them in changing innings, and do
not permit bats or other articles to lie
around on the playing field.
Do not be too quick in giving base
decisions, particularly those where the
runner must be touched to be retired
Put snap and vim into your work
and keep the players hustling when
changing positions. Report chronic
loafers, also those who attempt to de
lay the game, or who in your opinion
are not giving the best service to their
clubs.
Never start a game without a thor
ough understanding with both cap
tains regarding ground rules. An
nounce all special ground rules to the
spectators.
Do not talk to spectators or allow
the players to argue or quarrel with
them Avoid trouble with players and
spectators by going direct to your
dressing room when the game is fin
ished.
Must Make Motions.
Announce balls and strikes in a
loud, quick tone of voice, also raise
the right hand for each strike called
When calling out" raise the right
safe" hold out both hands with
palms downwards. Keep your face
to the play until you are sure the ball
is caught and held. The count OF
balls and strikes on a batter should
be frequently shown by the extension
Of the arms
Use your best judgment in contin-
uing a game in bad weather. Do not
permit a moderate shower to stop a
game once started. Protect both club
and public and, if possible. play nine
innings. Remove or fine a player for
dilatory tactics.
The pitcher must take position
facing the batsman, and not facing
first of third base. One foot must be
on the rubber, and neither foot may
be to the side or back of it, during
the winding up process and delivery OF
the ball.
Defines Ball<.
Should the pitcher drop or let the
ball slip out of his hand when wind
ing-up, with nobody on bases. call I
ball; with men on bases call a ball
and nothing on the batter.
A ball delivered by the pitcher T.
! the catcher or to any base after tn,
batter has taken his position at tn
plate at the beginning of an innin!
must be called a ball or a strike
| When one pitcher replaces anothe
in the game he may pitch five balls t

possibly help it, no matter what the
provocation. Use every effort in your
power to avoid it, even to waiting con-
siderably beyond the regulation time,
or to calling a police officer to re-
move the offending players.
Consideration for Pitchers.
Be more lenient with pitchers than
with other players, on account of a
club being weakened to a greater eX-
tent when its pitcher is expelled
Warn all players at least once before
filming or expelling them. Do not be
loud or offensive in your manner
when notifying player of fine or ex-
pulsiOn. Give your orders in quiet,
firm or dignified way with as little
bluster as possible.
If any club official cIiticizes or
threatens you. do not enter into dis
cussion with him but report the mat
ter to this office at once. AS long as
you attend strictly to business and do
your duty, you will be upheld and
protected.
If in doubt on any point write to
this office.
Keep your person and uniform neat
and clean at all times. Keep your
watch properly regulated.
