Yet the thing that makes it diff
cult to give the correspondent a direct
answer is the fact that baseball is just
as good in the minor league as in the
majors. Further, l think that on an
average, the contests in minor
leagues are more interesting.
The answer depends largely upon
what the correspondent means by
better teams. The major leagues
have the pick of the minors. They
select, buy and draft the best play
ers-for their purposes. This rule,
while seeming to work an injustice,
really is what makes minor league
baseball so interesting. The strong
est club in minor league loses the
most players. The following season

ceivable that even a Class B team
might beat the Athletics 4 out of z

or by the use OF soap and hot water.
The soap and hot water process may
be applied to all small articles that

and should require but little trouble
Large articles and such fabrics as

by absorption. Fresh grease spots
may often be entirely removed by a
melting process alone. Place pieces

This chalk may also be applied by
mixing 1t to a paste with benzine. ap.

In cases Of large grease spots Of

that armor was often cut down to meet,
