initial sack If he cannot land good
man. The Macon Club asked, it is
believed, for the pick of the Tiger
rockies and a cash consideration be-
sides. The chances are. however that
Eddie Phelps, manager of the Albany
New York State League team, will do
the developing of any of the young
STEERS on Newark's payroll who are
farmed out this year. The chances
are NJ. blot will be sent there, as well
as Payntar, and maybe a pitcher or
two.
The fact that Wilbert Robinson was
making inquiries about Sherrod
Smith last week at Augusta led to
the circulation of rumor here in
camp that Brooklyn would get Smith.
Robinson did not see him pitch, how
ever. Brooklyn has three good south
paws In Rucker. Aitchison and Allen.
If Sherrod were TO be taken, Allen
would probably become a Tiger, and
it would not be a bad deal for the
Newark Club, at that Sherrod
shapes up like wonder. but there
Is always more chance that he will
fizzle, while Allen would be a star in
the International League.
Heckinger Shines.
Catcher Heclinger's work was one OF
the bright spots in yesterdays game
here. Hecl1lnger was unlucky in his
hitting. for the outfielders were pull
ing down all sorts of smashes from
his bat, and when he tried for
Texas Lacquer Amby Mcconnell made
sensational catch out in centre
field, after n desperate run.
In addition, the Bengals We're up
against Il case of pretty strong
favored home unpring. Fans at
home are not looking for alibs for
spring training games. They do not
win pennants, and contests won in
May are worth It million won In
March. However. Snan who has
not seen the way visiting teams fare
with these amateur arbiters, hired
by the home club. cannot appreciate
what it means for a club to battle
against a team and an umpire, too.
1t is next to impossible to do much on
the inside line for which the Tigers
are noted. because anything that
comes close To the plate is strike
for visiting players, and they are
always in y hole. Hi Myers had one
to shortstop beaten a foot yesterday,
but was called out Eddie thinner
man hit another over third base for
a double. which was called foul, It
would have sent in the winning run.
Later Long, who plays left field for
the Atlanta team, robbed Zim of a
triple by a phenomenal catch.
Dent May Pitch To-day.
Eft Dent did not pitch against the
Tigers yesterday, because his arm
felt sore, but Manager Billy Smith
has offered Dent n chance to work
three innings today. and Eft says he
will go 1t, il he can warm up
properly. The fans here are still
raving about Joe Agler and Eft Dent
is their most reliable pitcher Eft is
chairman of the subscription commit
tee which is soliciting funds with
which to purchase an automobile for
Manager Billy Smith.

is a set Of decorated garden sticks used

which they were mounted on dowel
sticks and were ready TO go on duty
in the proudest Of flower beds. Any

BORAX WILL PREVENT THE
TYPHOID FLY FROM BREEDING.

ciallsts Of the Department Of Agricul-
amount OF ordinary borax spHnkled
daily on manure will effectively pre-
vent the breeding OF the typhoid or
house ny. Similarly. the same SUBJ
stance applied to garbage refuse, open
toilets. damp foors and crevices in
stables. cellars or markets will pre-
vent fly eggs from Matching. Borax
will not kill the adult fly nor prevent
It from laying egga but its thorough
use will prevent any further breeding.
The borax kills the fly eggs and mag
COTS in the manure and prevents their
growth into flies. While tho ',ewat
the fiy campaign" traps and other de-
vices for reducing the number Of ty-
phoid carrying flies are OF value. they
are Of less importance than the pre-
vention of the breeding.
For garbage cans and refuse piles.
two ounces OF borax will effectually
prevent flies from breeding. Sixty
two-one- hundredths OF a pound should
be used for treating eight bushels OF
manure.
The method for using this substance
in the case OF stables b. to sprinkle the
borax in the quantity given above, by
means OF flour sitter or other fine
sieve. around the outer edges OF the
pile OF horse manure. The manure
should then be sprinkled Immediately
with two OF three gallons OF water to
eight bushels Of manure. II Is essen
t;al however, to sprinkle a little OF the
horaS on the manure as II is added
daily 20 the pile, instead Of waiting I'M
~ full pile Is obtained. because this
will prevent the eggs which the flies
lay on fresh manure from Matching.
AS the fly maggots congregate AT the
outer edge OF the manure pile. most OF
the bora1 should be sprinkled there.
