Any time a team wins a champion
ship in any league it is entitled to ali
the credit in the world. With few
exceptions it is the best in the field
A great cry has been raised among
our faithful followers that the Giants

is quite true But ] think the fac.
AL the more hatterUg to the strength
of our pitchers. We won a penuaut
with weak hitting club. Hence our
STAFF mimmized opposing runs.
On the other hand, Philadelphia, as
rule, this year won by large scores.
Opposing teams scored often on
Mack'S twirlers. We are doubtless
far stronger than anything that fin
ished behind the Athletics. Where
fore. we should find plenty of open
ings against MaCks mound cham
piOns. They will have a tougher time
against our pitching staff than
against any individual box depart
ment of the American League
Another point. Hitting is far more
likely to count over 4 long stretch of
ia games than in such a limited
series as that which decides the
Worlds Championship. Pitching in
the latter case. believe, is the main
factor. In this department we have
a decided advantage. Mathewson was
never in better shape since ! Joined
the club. Tesreau is good, and Al
Demaree, though youngster, is
real marvel Manager McGraw is not
forced to stake his all on one or two
men, Mack must bank exclusively on
Bender and Plank-men who by ali
laws of nature, because Of their long
service, can not hope to recuperate
fully from the rough usage to which
they were submitted in the heat Of the
pennant fight If either Plank or
Bender goes under in the first two
games then Mack will be up against
it, and up against it hard
Pitching should win for us. None
Of our staff has been OVervurked this
year. MacB's reliances may come

until il was announced that ne had

He remained in the South until the

down to pitch baseball at a place
called Shreveport. 1t was here that
MCGraw first laid eyes on him and
having laid eyes on him ne kept them

Big Jeff pitched against the Giants,
but not with any astounding success.
II was not his skill as a pitcher which
attracted MCGraw's attention. There
wasn't any such thing in connection
with Big Jeff 1t was his tremendous

with McGraw string on him.
At Toronto he began 70 learn his

The folly Of Talking About $4,000
Hens.

In the current Issue OF Farm and
f1reside poultry expert publishes
letter from young man in which the
young man says thai he wants 10 start
IN the poultry business inaamneh as
he understands thai one can maize a
good deal Of money in that work. He
goes on 10 say
As far N ! can see, chickens are
not very hard TO ralse. and IL there IL
anything n this talk about $4,000
hens ! would like 10 raise on my
self. | wish 10 starr modeatI.. OF

chickens II there isnf big money In
them. II you have any secrets or
know where ! could Get hold Of any OF
the secret ways of raising swell chick
ems, ] wish you would pass them
along"
The poultry expert advises people
having such ideas 10 let the poultry
business alone. He E0ea on n COM
ment as follows:
While ! think the above letter Is
about the limit. | do not consider u
any worse than the average Ylew of
farmers toward poultry They don't
want 10 monkey with chickens II there
Isn't big money in Them ! admit that
It is entirely proper 10 look On the
financial HIde OF poultry before Ysn-
turing Into the business. but also
know thai there isnzI single person
In the whole universe that can make
! success With poultry If he goes In
looking only TO the money aIae. He
must be \ lover of foNIa. must have a
natural-born Interest IN them that
Will make hin love them. whether They
are money makers Of not. such a
man, claim, is the only true poultry
man.
The Idea the young man seens to
have about raising $4,000 henH seems
10 be about the idea everyone - ut
the time he first stages of chicken
fever become evident. He seems To
think thai al he haz In do ls II Het n
