County Fair Notes.

The fair costs lot OF work to
the people, but it is worth much
more than it costs and pays big
dividends on the investment.
The Brogan people who had
the oats that produced so heavi-
ly and the perfect ears of corn
will select the best OF their crop
for seed and another season will
do better.
The people who had the to-
matoes there had an opportun-
ity OF seeing perfect tomatoes,
filled so they will stand shipping
even surface and the other es-
sential points and they will be
able to improve on what they
did this season.

SN0DGRASS KEPT

McGraW Takes Murray Off Regular Team for Games Against Texas
 Leaguers.

Marlin, Tex, March 21-The mon otony of the long string of defeats of the regulars by the rockies was not relieved yesterday. The rockies won again, this time by the score of 4 to O. With their shI1t-out of Wednesday, the regulars have scored but two runs in twenty three innings and McGraw is up in arms
 The rockies lost Snodgrass from their lineup yesterday but were given Mlr- ray and Stock The transfer of Mur- ray though, was so that the team that plays in Waco today and Sunday will have another regular on it's line- up, for Waco fans turned out bigger crowds last Saturday and Sunday that did Dallas The shift of Snodgrass and Stock. however possibly carries with it more significance and probably means that Snodgrass will play regu- larIy at third base for the first team.

BROOKLYN CLUB SENDS FIVE RECRUITS BACK
 TO MINOR LEAGUES

I~ Augusta, Ga, March 21-The reduc- ton of the Brooklyn squad has begun with the sending away of five men. They have not gone yet. but they will be on their travels in a day or two. Neyenhouse, a Brooklyn < sennf-r,ro- fessfonal pitcher who wanted to work out under an old master like Manag- CT Robinson, will sign with the Au- { gusta ..club of the South Atlantic League. He is promising youngster and may make the majors in a year or two
 Ray Andrew, the son of a. Denver mipe owner, plays baseball because he likes it. and he likes Augusta He will remain here when the team leaves.
 OutfeIder Bill Collins returns to Newark, whence Brooklyn got him in August of last year The two clubs are owned by the same people. and the exchange was easily made
 Pennington and Ring, two other Brooklyn serni-pros, are to be sent to Albany. in the New York State League. Robinson likes them, but says they are too lacking in experience to make it worth while to carry them on the bench this season.

'DAL TON TO JOIN BRO0KL w SQUAD
Big Leaguers Get Outfielder
 from Newark For Three Players.

.
 Augusta. Ga: March 21-Rain. which continued until o'clock this morning, and a cold wind from the north all af- ternoon, tied up Manager Robinson and his Superbas yesterday.
 President Ebb cts and Manager Rob inson have decided to send Pitcher Ho1mquist, Catcher Hechinger and Shortstop Move to the Newark club. All of the players so far disposed of seem to be pleased with their new bertas.
 With the transfer of Holmquist, Hechinger and Move to Newark, Brooklyn will probably receive the services of either gOutheIder Dalton or Zimmerman from the Jersey Club. Both of these players appeal to the Superbas' new boss. Dalton, how ever, who played in Brooklyn several years ago will most likely be the se- lection on account of his good bat ting.

 The Britons also agreed to play the second game of the series on Satur- day, June 13, and should a third con test be necessary the date for that will be settled on June 14.

ELL FINED
 SIO0 FOR S0USE
Manager Chance Lands Heav- fly on Eccentric New
 York Pitcher.

Houston, Texas, March 21-Ray Cald-
 well. the big pitcher, has broken the training rules again and Manager Chance has fined him s1o0. This is the second ofrense for the pitcher on the training trip here, and, judging from the manner in which Chance expressed Ehis opinion of Caldwell, he will not re tain him en the ' ork club if lAGaIdweH fhinKs aet that way. | Previously, when the player went astray, Chance told him that his play ling days in the big league would come Ito an end if he did not behave hirnT Iself and attend strictly to business Caldwell promised the manager: that [ he was through with Broadway train 1 ing and that it would never happen again s x ss
 Wednesday night Chance heard that Caldwell was out over the time liEait fset by the managHr for hit players to be in bed, that being 11.38 o'clock.
 The manager called Caldwell on the telephone and found that he was not 1 in. Chance waited around until a late
 hour in the morning and Caldwell had lnot even then put in azlfs appearance. iWhen the Yankees went out to the tbau grounds Caldwell had not turned
 up and it was thought among the players that he had jumped the club,
 as he had done once before Up to a
 late hour last night Chance had been lunable to find the pitcher.
 ssCaldweH has not far to go in big
 league baseball if he thinks he can itrain here like some people do on the Great White Way, said Manager Chance This is the second time he Ihas violated rules on this trip, and I think it will be the last I have stood
 for enough as far as Caldwell is con- fcerned- He has been the only play l CT who has not lived up to the train ling rules, and if he intends to play lthat kind of game with me is is go- I ing to suffer for it..ss
 All is hustle in preparation in the camp of the Chance men for the get laway Sunday night, when the club Istarts for home.
