NEW YORK.-Fourteen hundred
persons have willingly laid bare their
most intimate family traits in order
to aid a little group of scientists who
are seeking to improve the worlds
greatest crop-human babies.
This was announced this morning
by DR.. Charles Benedict Davenport,
director of the eugenics record Of
flee at Cold Spring Harbor, Long
Island.
For three years the work of gath
ering the record of family traits
has been pursued with extraordinary
patience and zeal. 1t has been watch
ed with eager interest by scientists
and group If prominent laymen
who have furnished financial stimu-
lus. Among the latter are Mrs. E.
H. Hartman, who rounded the Eu-
genics Record Office four years ago,
John D. Rockefeller.
Moral Traits Hereditary.
IAN elimination of thousands Of
honestly recorded characteristics
crystalizes my conviction that moral
as we'll as mental and physical char
acteristics are hereditary" said DR..
Davenport.
Each of the / 400 correspondents
was furnished with a six-page pam
phlet, blank save for directions as
to filing out. The questions asked
covered education, age at marriage,
occupations at successive ages, lesser
diseases, grave illnesses in youth
and middle age, surgical operations
undergone, if dead cause of death
and age at death, whether those
married were blood relations, special
tastes, gifts or peculiarities of mind
or body, character, favorite pursuits,
etc.
The replies covered very wide
ranges. They showed that the So
called "germ-plasm" of the cores
pondents contained the elements of
every possible strain, including cho-
rea, paronia, dementia, precox, viO-
lent outbursts of temper, violent ero-
tism, extreme Incidence and a hun
dred other defects that, in the words
IF DR.. Davenport, will "entail sui
fering on ever-increasing numbers
of their descendants and add to oul
social problems"
! From this and other tests DR.. Da

EIGHT CENTS IS
COST OF COTTON
Cost of Producing Is Over Twenty
Dollars an Acre. Gets Higher
Now Every Year.


WASHINGTON, D. C.-The cost
of producing cotton averages about
SPA cents a pound or $2O.35 an acre,
according to Assistant Chief Nat c..
Murray, of the federal bureau of crop
estimates, in a report published to-
day. These statistics, the latest avail
able on the subject, are the results
of the Investigation made in 1910.
A similar Investigation in 1896 show
ed the production cost was 5.27 cents
a pound, or $15.42 an acre. Many
inquiries, due no doubt to the great
decline in price of cotton which on
November 1st averaged Go cents a
pound to producers compared with
121 cents, the average of the past
five years on November /, have been
received by the department of agri-
culture. Yearly reports on the pro-
duction cost are not made by the de-
partment and the results of the 1910
investigation had not heretofore been
announced.
1t is pointed out by DR.. Murray
that the two investigations indicate
material increase in the money
cost of producing cotton between the
two periods, the increase averaging
more than three per cent year.

here next Monday. The Union Giants
have been OrpaniZad for MANY voars and

here next Monday. The Union Giants
have been organized for many years and
tour the country every season with the
best colored players they can find in the
United States. AS every one knows,
New Ulm has been going up against some
great teams this season, the management
of the local club believing that the fans
will turn out to see good ball games.
The game will be called at 80 or 500
o'clock so that practically everybody in
town can get down to see the contest.
With Pfeiffer and Cordes back in the
lineup New Ulm will be strong enuf to
give the tourists good scrap. Should
the locals win they would gain nation
wide reputation for the team, and every
fan in town ought be down at thepark to
cheer the boys along. On Sunday New
Ulm will play Albert Lea return game
at Albert Lea.

Notes of the Albert Lea Game.

Friedl pulled off the cleverest play Of
the game in the third. With Primley
on first, Lynch hit slow one to Friedl.
Ed saw he could not get Lynch at first so
he bluffed the trow and then shot the ball
to Williams at second, getting Primley
easily
G.. Williams started fine double play
in the fifth. In that inning Primley led
off with a hit and was forced by Lynch.
Spahr hit to "Chick, "who touched Lynch
as he sped past him and threw to first
ahead Of Spahr.
Good defensive work by New Ulm kept
Albert Lea from scoring in the eighth.
Broderick led off with his third hit.
Stevenson hunted towards first, intending
to sacrifice, but W. Hodgins came in fast
and hurled the ball to second, forcing
Broderick. Farley flew out to right and
Stevenson had the nerve to try for second
after the catch, arriving safely because
Lindemann was careless in his return
throw.
Wines picked another hit to left but
Dahms hustled the ball to the plate and
Stevenson was held at third Robinsn
rolled to Friedl for the third out.

Waseca Game (continued)

bouncing over Friedl's head. Rosenow
should have run in on the hit, since there
were two down, but he stuck to third and
lost the chance to score.
Gallager then poked the ball towards
first and Seifert began a wonderful per
formance. He bounced the ball off his
manly chest, rolled it up his sleeve, down
his back and around his neck, juppled
the horsehide and his glove for a time,
let the sphere trickle thru his fingers,
kicked it around like "doggone houn'
dawg and finally clutched it with a
deathlike grip. But that wasn't all.
Oh, my no! The band struck up time
and Seifert began to trip the light fan
tastic. He put in a few steps Of the

Notes Of the Waseca Vaudeville.

Wangen had the better Of Joe Smith
IN the matter Of strikeouts, getting
eleven OF the Athletics by the tanning
method, while Joe could only down two
OF the Waseca batters in that fashion.
Seifert handled eleven chances without
an error at first base for New Ulm.
Burk could not have done better than
that and "Cornie" would not have
furnished as much amusement for the
fans as f"Coach'' did in the ninth inning.
Friedl made a couple Of stops at third
for the Athletics that bordered on the
sensational. When Hanna caught
Wangen's line drive in the seventh he
tried to double Helmke off third. His
throw was way up in the air, but Friedl
stabbed it with one hand by wonderful
leap toward the skies.
Chick and Hanna" exchanged
positions in the fourth inning. .'Hanna's
thumb bothered him so much that he
knew he couldn't throw the ball to first
1TOIIl SIlOrC. r- ,r,e
The Waseca boys were as fine bunch
OF ballplayers as have come to New Ulm
for many day. They were not crab
bing5 about insignificant and inconse-
quential details all the time, as so many
OF the visiting teams have done.
Lindemann drove hit to the canvas
to open the home half of the fifth. He
tried to make two bases on it but was
thrown out at second for Orline played
the ball off the canvas nicely and made
a fine throw to the keystone corner.
New Ulm certainly punched every
thing they could in the fourth when they
scored four runs. A double, two singles,
a walk, a missed third strike, an error,
sacrifice, and couple of stolen bases
contributed.

BUILDERS CHAMBER OVER PRO
FESSIONALS.

In the fastest and best-played game
OF the Twilight League season the Pro-
fessionals went down to defeat before the
Builders last Wednesday evening by a
score of to 8. Judicious juggling of
pitchers, batting in the pinches and
taking advantage of their opponents
carelessness won the game for the Con-
tractors.
The fielding was exceptionally clever
on both sides, number Of good catches
and hair-raising scoops being made.
Three errors were booked against the
Builders, while the Professionals had two
misplays charged against them. The
Builders, however, outhit the Profess
SIGNALS two to one, getting eight hits to
their opponents four.
The Professionals drew first blood by
scoring point in their half Of the first
inning, after the Builders had been re-
tired in order. With one down Hage
singled to left, stole second and went to
third on passed ball. He scored when
Mueller hit to the infield, "Cap" being
safe on the felder's choice. A. ".
Seifert forced Mueller at second and O.
j. Seifert punched a hit to left, but Hintz
ended the chance by lifting high one to
the shortstop.
Newman opened the second inning for
the Builders by dropping a scratch
double over short. Joyce famed but
Charlie Cordes picked another twobagger
scoring Newman and knotting the count.
The Professionals had fine opening in
the last of the second, but a fine double
play, Dahms to Newman threw it into
the discard.
Dahl was hit in the third, stole second
and scored on Hayes clean hit to right,
Hage being thrown out going to second
on the play. With one out of the way
in the fourth the Builders got two on the
bags, but Mueller frightened up and re-
tired the side. Newman singled to short
and loped to the keystone corner on a
passed ball. Joyce rolled one down the
third base line and beat it out, Newman
holding second. Cap struck out G.
Cordes and Altenberndt pulled down
Waibel's long fly in left. s
With the game seemingly tucked
away by 2 to | score, the Professionals
grew a little careless in the sixth and the
Builders rushed over three scores. One
gone, Newman singled to left, took
second on a passed ball and third when
Dahl missed Joyce's third strike. G.
Cordes' bingle to center sent Newman
home and joyce to third. Cordes and
Joyce counted on Waibels clout. Cap
then put on steam and famed the next
two, but the damage had been done.
With remarkable spirit the PROBES
SIGNALS made q strong effort to tie the
score in the last Of the sixth. Hage went
out, Cordes to Waibel, and Mueller's
ilong fly was rnothered by Joyce ii left.

Standing Of the Teams.

The game which was scheduled for
Sunday between the Third "A. A. team of
this city and the third team of Sleepy Eye
was called off Saturday by the Sleepy
Eye manager. It is hoped that the two
teams will be able to get together some
time this season as there is considerable
rivalry between the clubs.
