1913 the gross receipts were $72,-
929.11, an increase of 59.4 per cent
over 1912, large enough surely to sat

number of patrons was in January,
1913, 1OS; the largest number was in
July, 1856; the average number of pat
rons for the year being 151. The pat
rons Of the creamery last year receiv-
ed an average price for their butter
fat Of 1876 cents per pound.
In 1912 the total pounds of cream
received was ga, 1884, and in 1913 it
leaped to 1885,, 999. In 1912 the total
butter fat weighed ISL, 872 pounds and
made 1882 pounds of butter. In
1918 the butterfat weighed 2O8,132
pounds which made 255,O52 pounds of
butter.
The per cent Of overrun in 1912 was
20 per cent and in 1913 22.1. The av-
erage cream test in 1912 was ISL and

SAME LEADERS
r 3 - ~ - ~
| FIGHT IT OUT
| IN FLAG RACE
Milwaukee and Louisville Were
the Leaders in A. A. a
Year Ago.

ST. PAUL, July 30.-History is re-
peating itself in the American asso-
citation this year in so far as the lead
ing teams in the race are concerned.
Last year at this time Milwaukee was
leading in the race with lead of four
games over Louisville. Right now
these two clubs are fighting for lea
dership, scarcely half a game apart.
Minneapolis, now in seventh place,
was third at this time in 1913, half
a game behind Louisville, Columbus
was fourth, Kansas City fifth, st. Paul
sixth and Toledo and indianapolis
brought up the rear. Columbus, Min
neapolis and St. Paul have been the
chief disappointment, and Cleveland
and Indianapolis have shown the most
improvement.
It is in the big leagues that great
differences are seen. Last year at this
time New York in the National and
Philadelphia in the American leagues
were more than ten games ahead of
their percentages yesterday. In both
big circuits the race was settled be-
yond any doubt. The same teams look
as though they will repeat, but their
margin of leadership is nothing like
as great as it was year ago.
In the National league St. Louis
now third, was bad last at this time
twelve months ago, and Brooklyn, now
in eighth place, was then fifth, right
on the heels of the Pirates, who were
fourth.
Last year, Cleveland, now in last
place, was second, and continued in
that position until within month of
the close of the season. Chances
Highlanders are one notch higher than
they were a year ago and have a con-
siderable better percentage.
In the Northern league Winona was
leading a year ago. Now Duluth is on
top after making spectacular climb
from very last place.

Professor Wrench's Government Own.
ership of Baseball Prediction
Abuses Secretary Heydler.

NEW YORK, July 3o-secretary
John Feydler of the National league
had a good laugh TODAY. 1t came when
he was shown a dispatch stating that
Prof. Jesse E. Wrench, teacher of his
tory al the University of Missouri
pret ,cted that the government would
own the baseball leagues in the United
States in the next twenty-five years
"That's all a Dream" said Heydler
Before we talk about government
ownership of our baseball and other
sports it might be just as we'll to wait
and see what success the government
has with ownership of railroads and
a few other things. I understand
the weather down in Missouri was
frightfully hot the last week or so
And besides the silly season is now at
it's height, so we are liable to hear all
kinds of foolish talk these days."

SHAMROCK WIS
GOOD SEA BOAT

HORTA, FAYAL, AZORES, July 80
Shamrock w., Sir Thomas Lipton's
new challenger for the American cup,
arrived here yesterday, having taken
seven days and three hours for the
voyage from Falmouth, Eng.
According to those on board, the
would-be litter Of the International
trophy proved herself an excellent sea
boat.
Takes Sea Like Duck.
In hard blows she took the big seas
like duck and slipped through the
water with great ease.
Before Shamrock babe farewell to
the English coast, Colonel Neill, who
is making the voyage on board the
steam yatch Erin, which is acting as
convoy, pressed the challenger hard in
order to test her gear and her ocean
rig. Everything war found to be in
good order and the little racer made
good weather out of the hard blow
and the drenching rain storm she en-
countered on the run from Torquay to
Plymouth.
Some Good Runs.
The yacht left Falmouth on the
morning of July 81 for her run by way
Of the Azores to New York. When
weather conditions permitted the chal-
lenger travelled under her own sail.
At times the wind slackened down I'M
til there was dead calm. Then Col
onel Neill would take the challenger in
tow until the breeze strengthened suf-
ficiently for her to run under her own
sail.
The best days. runs were 240, 222,
1879, 142 and 1852 knots.

Al Palzer is sojourning for a brief
period in the twin cities and is taking
quite little interest in the proposal
that he fuss with Mr.. Fulton, at Hud-
son, some time in August or around
Labor Day. Mr.. Palzer is perfectly
willing to quarrel but says that this
time he must have something to say
regarding such minor details as purse,
date and the social precedence. In an
interview to the Minneapolis Journal
he says:
"When I fought Fulton before l
was too sick with malaria to train or
pet myself into the proper shape"
said Alonzo. II took the match and
did what training I could without a
heavyweight to box with or any ade-
quate training. Since the bout I
have been in the hands of physician
battling malaria and am now feeling
in good shape and in mood for a lit
tie ruction with the Fulton boy.
"This time though I will require a
bit more cash than I did before. I
have licked this fellow once and if I
am asked to do it again I am afraid
that I will have to have the ante
boosted a bit even if they have to
take it off his share.
81 don't want to fight in August as
it is too hot and the bout would not
draw flies if it happened to fall on one
of these hot nights. I think that state
fair week, when the city is full of visi-
tors from the country, would be a good
time and that a heavyweight card
pulled off then would pack them in. l
am perfectly willing to fight Fulton
any old time but I want to have some
thing to say about the details next
time"

ENGLAND WANTS
BASEBALL
NEW YORK J,11v 90

NEW YORK, July 3O-Reports that
two big league baseball clubs will
tour Ireland and parts of continental
Europe again next winter have led to
several requests that the teams visit
England during the trip. This is &C.
copied as bearing out the statements
that baseball is really gaining a fol-
lowing in the British Isles. Writing on
the subject we'll known American
athlete now abroad states there is
evidence that cricket is loosing some of
it's popularity among English sports
devotees.
Prefer Baseball to Cricket.
''The White Sox and the Giants
made more of an impression in Eng
land than one would suspect from
reading the newspaper accounts of the
game in the English papers. I have
found out that the English appreciat-
ed the speed of our game as compared
to cricket; that they marveled at the
accurate throwing and catching and
liked the idea of the game being COM
pleted in one afternoon instead of
three days as cricket does. I am told
that cricket is loosing it's hold on the
people, that baseball clubs have al
ody been formed and that many
have given up cricket for tennis. The
opportunities for playing both base
ball and tennis are far greater here
than in the larger cities of the East
ern states.
Hundreds of Parks Available.
"For instance, London, which sets
the athletic fashion for England is
infinitely superior to New York as a
training ground for athlees, principal
ly because of the hundreds Of parks,
called squares, where there are tennis
courts and large space in which to
exercise or play ball. Any one who
lives in houses surrounding these
parks is entitled to the use of the
courts and exercise grounds, and there
are so many of these parks that almost
every one has an opportunity to get
good healthy exercise, especially in
the summer time, when the light lasts
until nine o'clock in the evening""

RObideau COMING.

Pine River is getting the old bunt-
ing ready, the town band is practising
up on 'Hail to the Chief" and the
Volunteer Fire company is preparing
to make an exhibition run around the
town square and threw water from
the town well to the tower of the Ma
sonic Hall on Main street.
It's all over Sam Robideau, the
boxer who is coming back to Pine
River for few weeks rest from his
activities in the Philadelphia ring.
Robideau is a Minneapolis boy who
spends part of every summer at Pine
River and his arrival generally means
as big a demonstration as it does at
Brainerd when Joe Bush drives his
motor up to the depot to purchase his
evening paper.

The aggregate appropriations Of
