DOCTORS UNABLE TO AGREE
Question Whether Brown Bread Is
Superior to White Still Forms
Subject for Argument.

White bread was said by experts,
or by those who claim to be experts, to
be much superior to brown bread a
few months ago, and we were told that
the idea of eating graham bread or
any bread containing part or all of the
bran of wheat and other portions OF
the grain which are taken out in the
boIting process was old-fashioned and
might lead to injury. Now come the
medical inspectors of the French army,
a group of very distinguished physi-
clans and scientists, who say that
boiling pushed beyond certain limit
eliminates the useful element of flour
in more than one respect and does
nothing but improve the color of the
bread. When white bread is used ex-
clusively they have found that the
men eat and need more meat, but
when the flour is only partially bolted
and only the coarser particles OF the
bran are removed the soldiers are in
better health and they eat less meat,
which results In superior economy and
efficiency at the same time. The meth
cd Of boiling flour was invented some
centuries ago, and 1t seems about time
that the relative values of white and
unbolted flour were settled, but the
doctors can no more agree about 1t
than they can about the therapeutic
value of alcohol.-New York CONNER

RECORD FOR BURKET1
MANAGER OF WORCESTER TEAM
LONG IN HARNESS.
As Member Of Cleveland Club He Led
National League 5atters In 1885
and 1896, and Topped the List
With ST. Louis In 1901.

With the opening of the season in
the New England league recently,
Manager Jesse Burkett started on his
twepty-eighth consecutive year as a
baseball player. AS pilot Of the
Worcester team Burkett dons the
spangles regularly. and, though he
doesn't participate in every game, he
plays often enough to get his name In
the records for the season.
Since Jim O.Rourke made his final
retirement from the diamond to be-
come president Of the Eastern league
the record for continuous service on
the ball field doubtless belongs to
Burkett
Jesse Burkett was born in Wheel
ing, w. Va, December 4, 1870. At the
age Of sixteen he began playing pro-
fessional ball at Scranton, Pa Two
years later he went to Worcester. La
ter he was traded to the New York
Giants, who farmed him out to the
/ Lincoln club of the Western league.
In 1891 he was sold to Cleveland. He
remained in the Ohio city until the
amalgamation with st. Louis in 1899,
and played with the st. Louis Cardi-
mails through 1901. The next season
found him a member of the newly
formed American league club in the
Mound City. In 1905 he joined the
Boston American league club. A year
later he bought an interest in the
Worcester club, and has acted as
manager of the team ever since.
During his long career as a big
Lacquer Burkett established a reputa-
ton as one of the heaviest batters who
ever faced pitcher. AS a member Of
the old Cleveland club he led the Ma
tional league batters in 1895 and 1896.
and again topped the list while play
ing with st. Louis in 1901.
The same success that attended
Burkett's career as major league
player has marked his work as a
minor league pilot Since he took over
the Worcester team eight years ago
his team has never finished lower than
third position in the New England
league race. For four successive sea.
sons his team captured the pennant.
Major league scouts have great faith
in Burkett's ability to develop talent
: and they seldom fail to be on hand
early In the season to give the Worces
ter team the once over" Some of the
. classy players he has developed tbs
: last few years have brought fancy
] prices when sold to clubs in faster
company.
Burkett received his higher educa
n ,tion in baseball in the rather Difficult
). school afforded by the old Nationa
Q league in the '90s. The game was no
run so smoothly in those days as now
The umpires exercised less control an
D player was obliged to make goo

Bob Bescher a Star.

Followers of the Giants already look
upon Robert Bescher as real star
Whenever this young man reaches
first base the fun begins. He takes a
big lead, worries the pitcher as much
as possible, and when he starts he's a
whirlwind. It requires a bullet throw
to cut him down at the middle bag.
Bescher is playing better ball than in
Cincinnati last season.
