BASE BALL

We lost again Sunday but as the
Ports lost twice we still have company
in the cellar. Sheboygan lost also and
if Liebl don't threaten to leave the
league unless this and future defeats
are cancelled we can still overtake the
chairmakers which is some little con-
ISOLATION. Our athletes have lost a lot
OF games which through an even break
in luck we could have won. Sundays
game was one of them. One defeat is
due to the llabby jelly which exists
where the spinal column ought to be in
the anatomy of the league president.
The game at Kenosha last Sunday
was swat-fest. Sixteen hits by our
side and fifteen accumulated from our
Stoney's offerings tell the story. Every
man IN the game secured at least one
"ftC S name in the box score.

season. Our old warhorse is effective
only in spots and the spots are shrink

A German woman has opened a
school in New York in which she pro-
poses, in six months term to educate
woman in the art of housekeeping.
According to the published plans Of
the school the graduate will know how
to scrub, wash and iron; how to do
scientific marketing, how to be some
thing of a trained nurse, how 10 do
small Jobs and repairs around the
house, such as mending a broken door
knob, locating leak in the water or
gas pipes, putting up shelf, hanging
a picture and various other such mat
ters which confront the busy housewife
know, above all things, how to avoid
''that frighttul waste in American
households which you never see in
German homes.
There is nothing said about cooking,
which is the most essential business of
the household and one with which the
housewife must concern herself to no
small extent regardless of her ability
to hire and keep cook. The incon.
stancy of cooks makes frequent yacan-
cies in the kitchen, and il the woman
OF the house is not capable of getting a
meal in an emergency the family is
likely to suffer serious inconvenience
along with possible pangs of hunger or
dearth Of nourishment.
Presumably cooking is included in
the curriculum of the housekeeping
school II it is not it ought to be, for
housekeeping cannot very well be car.
ried on without cooking. Everybody
ought to know something about the ru.
diments of cookery so that ''in pinch"
there would be no lack of ability TO
prepare at least simple and frugal
meal. 1t may be well enough for the
housewife 10 know how to drive nail
or mend door knob. II Is vastly
more important that she should know
how TO broil steak, TO scramble an
egg and TO make pot of coffee which
"giveth its color in the cup" and pro-
claims by its aroma that IL Is some
thing fit to drink.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

The county fair will be held August
%, 26, 81. The managers are doing
their utmost to make it the best fair
ever held in Manitowoc county. 1t
will not be lacking in exhibits or at
fractions and should not be lacking in
attendance. Secretary Fred Borcherdt,
Jr., is leaving no stone unturned TO
make it real county fair, and it is
safe to say that it will be a real fair
and not mere medium for the exhi-
bition of freaks and fakes and the en-
ploitation of catchpenny schemes. 1t
is, indeed, possible in Manitowoc coun-
ty 10 get together creditable display
OF livestock, agricultural products and
other substantial features of an eXhibi-
tion of the kind. Unless fair is 60
ing and growing institution the public
is likely to lose interest in it-and pub
lie approval and support are essential
to success.
Nothing is more productive of thrifty
farming than to meet your neighbors,
exchange thoughts. and tinc out how
others prosper under management diff
ferent from your own and no place
offers greater facilities for such in
formation than the county fair. Spend
at least two days there this year and
profit from the experience of others.
The county fair that is well sustain
ed is q factor for progress. Il gives
impetus and encouragement to human
endeavor and it is primarily valuable
as an object lesson of the results OF
intelligent toll. 1t can and should be
made force for rural betterment and
rural prosperity.
