Gilmore Says Clubs Are Strong

CHICAGO, March 17.-That there

ment of James A. Gilmore, president

ing to the optimistic boss of the out
law league, the clubs are strong
enough now, and with few exceptions
the lineups as they stand are capable
of displaying baseball of major league
caliber.
II am receiving communications
every day from players who are dis
satisfied with conditions in the minor
and big leagues who have signified
their willingness to jump to our
league. But what is the use of sign
ing these players and paying them
large salaries when there is no room
left for them. All the players that
are now signed with our teams, will
be taken care of for the time their
contracts cover"
Gilmore also declared that the pro-
ceedings in the Killifer case would be
started in Grand Rapids Thursday.
Gilmore expects that if a favorable de-
cisiOn is rendered in the case Of the
Phillies catcher's case, Banding,
Koehler Of Cleveland, Williams and

turned over to them by their respective

RANK HIGH IN SCHOLARSHIP
That Athletes Are Poor Students Is
Denied by Former Professor
In an Eastern College.

THAT athletics are practiced in most
colleges do not detract the attention Of
students from scholastic duties is
abundantly testified to by college pro-
fessors," remarb ed DR.. James Hine-
man, a former professor in one Of the
eastern colleges. DR.. Brinker, the
president of Lehigh university, de-
clared that the Lehigh football squad
had averaged higher in scholastic
standing than the students who did
not participate in coll.ge athletics. Lee
high is not the only college in which
this fact has been marked. Cornell for
several years-and I have no doubt
that it continues to show it-had foot
ball and baseball teams the members
of which led their classes.
Properly controlled athletics are as
necessary to successful mental train
ing as are professors. I presume there
have been instances where members
of college teams have failed In their
examinations, and charges follow, as
matter Of course, that these men are
not genuine students. But the facts are
so pronounced that the best men on
the leading athletic teams in our
greatest colleges are men Of big men
tality that the suggestion that col,
leges have to hire athletes falls in its

MIXTURE FOR TREE WOUNDS
LARGE Limb Cut Off, With Stub Left
Unprotected, Furnishes Excellent
Hiding Place for Fungi.

In California the following mixture
was used on trees three years ago
and is still in good condition: One
part of crude petroleum to three
parts of resin; warm in separate
dishes, mix and apply warm to cuts
made by pruning or by cultiVator In
Jury. While this mixture is not pet
ter than grating wax, 1t is much
cheaper and is worthy Of trial.
If owners of trees would realize
the Importance of keeping the bark
whole and unbroken on their trees
and treat all wounds promptly, they
would save much loss from so-calleo
wound fungi" which are ever abun-
dant and ready to take possession
and cause decay. Wounds that should
BE treated are Of various origin, ana
those to the body Of the tree are most
important, though injuries to large
limbs very often spread downward.
A large limb cut off, with the stub
left unprotected, supplies a gooo
place for these fungi to enter, and
the end of the life Of the tree Is has
tened by the hollow body resulting
from decaying branches. Branches
are injured at picking time by boot
heels and ladders; winds break
branches; hailstorms and sunscalo
rupture the bark, and the bodies or
the trees are often bruised by wagons
or other farm tools.

II Tips Have Increased.

Many of our readers will not know
what the illustration represents until
we explain, says Green's Fruit Grower.
The cut is intended to illustrate ana
tell how to propagate the black rasp-
berry.
In July, or as soon as the canes or
the black raspberry plant are long
enough to bend over and reach the
ground, we bury the tip end of each
cane two to three inches deep IN the
soil, cover them with earth and place
a stone over the earth to hold the
bent branch in position undetached
from the parent plant. There Is no
difficulty in securing from six to ten
plants from the canes of black rasp-
berry bush as they naturally grow. But
If you will nip off the tip Of the young
canes in June and plant, each cane
will make from six to ten canes, and
in this way you can greatly increase
the number of tips to be buried for the

MADE HIN GIVE Up THE GAME
caddle's Unfeelns Remarks Too Much
for Tender Feelings of Dear
Old Gentleman.

A dear old gentleman, who had only
taken up the dear game very late IN
life, spent some months endeavoring,
under the tuition Of professional
and the care of special caddle, TO
hit the ball. When he succeeded IN
doing so at all it was never more than
few yards, and every bunker on the
course was his daily doom. Still his
caddie, having an eye to the MAIN
chance, always encouraged him to
think that he would soon be more a
player, and the old man, with the
hope that springs eternal even more
in the hearts of golfers than in other
people, firmly believed him. One day
it happened that his special caddy was
absent, and rufianly looking person
appeared on the first tee with the old
gentleman's clubs. He took his nor
NAL IA shots to the first hole, to the
unconcealed but unnoticed disgust of
the caddie; put on the second tee the
miracle happened, and the old boy for
once hit beauty.
"That was a good one, wasn't it,
he asked, turning to the bearer OF
clubs.
Good one?" retorted the ruf1an, In
tones of the bitterest contempt. why,
1 could play better than that with me
left fut!"
This unexpected verdict so upset
the poor old man that he walked
straight back home. and has never
touched a club since.
