By taking three straight games from
the Abattoirs in the Northeastern
League last night the Raccar Club
went into first place, sending the for
mer leaders down into a tie for second
with the Birkles. The Abattoirs were
holding the top berth by two full
games, with the Raccars and Birkles
tied for the runner-up position, but the
three-time victory over the Abattoirs
placed the Raccars on top by margin
of a full game. The aforementioned
quint is now in first place with nine
teen games won and eight lost.
Smith, rolling in the anchor position

BABY'S NEEDS IN SUMMER
li0htness Of Clothing 10 One Of the
First Requisites During the Hot
Weather.

Warm weather is q dangerous pc
Rod for children, and all mothers
dread the summer for their little ones.
AS the weather grows warmer and
warmer, fewer and lighter clothes
should be worn by the baby. So
many mothers have a mistaken idea
that flannel bands must be kept
around baby's abdomen, next to the
skin, no matter what the weather.
The treatment Is not only wrong. but
actually cruel
To keep flannel next to the young
sensitive skin when the weather is so
hot that every turn of the little body
against the flannel causes severe ir-
ritation Is almost barbarous. Yet how
many mothers believe in it! There
are fewer each year. for which we
should be grateful. but still there are
left large enough number of such
deluded mothers to keep a great many
babies in comparative torture during
the summer time.
The little body should feel nothing
but the sheerest softest materials
next to 1t. When It is very hot the
young baby may be totally undressed.
except for his little shirt. During the
hottest hours of the day the little one
should be placed on a wide bed
dressed in this garb, or rather lack
of garb. and allowed to play or sleep
until the sun is setting.

GREAT TOBACCO PEST

Government Experiments Prove That

Tobacco growers in Kentucky. Ten |
nessee and adjoining states are ad-
vised by government specialists to use
arsenate of lead in freeing their crops
Of hornworms-the greatest pest that
the grower in the dark-tobacco dis
tricts has to face. Arsenate of lead Is
said to be both effective and safer than
paris green, which has been used ex-
tensively against the pests for some
years. With 1t there IL no risk OF

Injurious effect upon the operator.
Until recent years 1t was customary
to pick of the hornworms by hand
hand worming" as the work was
called. As labor grew scarcer and less
effective. however. this method became
too expensive and growers were COM
PEELED to employ an insecticide. OF
those first employed paris green proved
the most satisfactory-or rather the
least unsatisfactory. for it frequently
causes q considerable loss. In 1917.
for example. in several fields In Ten
nessee it was estimated that the DAM
age done by paris green ranged from
10 to Is per cent Of the gross value OF
the crop. Exceptional cases are on
record where the damage has run az
high as so per cent Arsenate Of lead
causes none Of this damage. according
to statements in Farmers Bulletin
SOS. "Arsenate of Lead as an Insecti-
eide Against the Tobacco Hornworms

published by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. On one occasion
four acres of Kentucky tobacco were
treated with an application Of On
pounds per acre Of powdered arsenate
of lead at Q time when the worms av-
eraged two a plant. Two days later
only four live worms we're found In the
entire field. Weather conditions un-
doubtedly contributed to establish this
extraordinary result. but they do not
account for the fact that there was no
injury TO the tobacco from poison

and at a stage when paris green burn
is very common.
To secure the best results arsenate
of lead should be mixed with some
form of carrier. "A number Of expert

burned wood ashes. of which a guam
