Audubon Wins Another Game

The Audubon and Templeton base
ball mines played an interesting game
of base ball on the home iamond last
Sunday. The home team proved their
superiority over the Templeton aggre-
cation and won by score of 10 to 5.
Leo Booton, Audubon's man in the box,
failed to warm up in the first inning,
allowing Templeton to score A runs.
But Booton came back in proper form
in the next inning, and with good as
sistance from his teammates, allowed
Templeton to make but one more score
in the eight innings that followed. Our
team played good snappy ball through.
out the entire game. Two scores were
made in the first inning, sin the second,
and in the fourth.
The Coon Rapids battery, Davis and
Smith, that was secured to fill in the
Templeton nine, proved ineffective
against the Audubon sluggers and were
displaced in the seventh inning. The
Templeton team was composed of
players from Dedham, Manning, Coon
Rapids and Templeton,
Audubon made II hits, three of them
two baggers while Templeton secured
three Booton struck out seven Davis
two; Smith one. Errors, Audubon two,
Templeton five. Time of game hour,
As minutes, Umpire, jess Richards.
The Audubon team appeared for the
first time in their new uniforms and it
is thought they were afraid of soiling
them in the first inning, which accounted
for Templeton taking such an early
lead. After the initiation, however,
the players forgot about their new bib
and tucker and went in to bring up
their percentage by capturing the game.
On account of a breakdown six miles
out of town, two of the Templeton
players did not arrive on schedule time
so the game was somewhat delayed.
Audubon goes to Atlantic for q game

The Watertown weekly leader. [volume] (Watertown, Jefferson County, Wis.) 1912-1917, 1914-01-09
RAISE WHEAT ON CORN LAND
Investigation Shows That Crop Was
Much Larger Than on Any Other
Soil in Northwest.

A singular fact came to the at
tention of farmers of the north CEN
trail states during harvest time. When
ever wheat had been sown on corn
land the crop was much larger than
on any other soil. Investigation has
shown this to be the case on so many
farms that it is believed to be the
universal rule.
1t is, perhaps, fair to assume that
in any scheme Of crop rotation the
intelligent farmer looks to the ad-
vantage of thorough cultivation be-
fore anything else. Certainly he may
with propriety be SO advised. But
the next wise step would be to let
wheat follow corn.
When land plainly shows the need
of rest a couple of crops Of colver,
millet or Canada peas serve the pur-
pose. The farmer who is fitting cattle
or hogs for market needs corn and
other fodder and he will find profit in
this sort of diversification, perhaps
far beyond what he can gain from
raising wheat The whole argument
is in favoc of an intelligent diversity
of crops as well as thorough cult
walton of the soil.
