Army Hopes to Play in New York

NEW YORK, April 9.-It was learned
yesterday that the influence OF u man.
for many years closely identified with
international sport. has been enlisted in
the endeavor to overcome the objections
Of the Navy and secure the Army-Navy
football game for this city next fall.

this mans name, but 1t is asserted that
not only has he been in +he i1terna-

of the prime factors in bringing ath-
letics to its present plane at the Naval
Academy.
Thus with him favoring the game for
this city the advocates of such plan
will be striking at the root Of Obja cuons
through his close identification with the
Naval Academy. He is known to have
a strong preference for New York. in

Joseph Gedeon,
Orange Grove
Owner.
By THOMAS KIRBY.

Joseph Gedeon.. the human VIC
trola Of the Nationals. has played
each Of the nine positions. and
would probably be trying for more,
were there more on a ball club.
Gedeon is a nimrod. and has prob
ably trave1ed more over this coun-
try than any other member Of the
Griffmen. In fact, 1t was the
migratory propensities Of the youth
that led Gedeon into professional
baseball.
While he was with his high school
team at his home in California
Gedeon thought 1t would be lovely to
take a trip to San Francisco. Some
one tipped Scout Contrel, of the
Frisco club. Off to Gedeon. and he
was taken along for a trial He
hoped right into the limellght, and
In the fall Of 1912 Washington and
Philadelphia put in drafts for his
services. The Athletics were the
luckier. but as they were well forti-
fed in the matter Of outfelders,
Connie Mack. in an outburst Of lib
erality. passed Gedeon over to
Griffith.
Gedeon has played both the in
field and outfield here, and has even
fitted in as a catcher in some Of
the practice games. He took unto
himself a wife during the winter.
and has purchased a ranch In Cali
fornia, where he has planted an
orange grove to furnish the kopecks

apace when his days on the diamond
are through.

Musser. Schwartz, and Dick Williams,
pitchers. and Lee, Paul Smith, and
Spencer. Jack Ryan completes his regu-
lar work with the University IF Nlr-
ginia on Saturday. so on Monday Re
will come here to take charge of the
ones who remain in Washington.
1t would appear as though Griffith
has made a wise selection from the
men at his command. Still. there will
be some little surprise at the fact that
Paul Smith and Paul Musser are not
among the elect. There Is, OF course.
a strong chance of revision, and it may
be that there will be further additions,
as Griffith is allowed to carry twenty
five men after May %. although this
rule may be waived by the league, lest
some of the men who are turned back
may find their way TO the Federal
forces
Smith is rangy outfelder who has
shown encouragingly in batting. and.
for a big man, is one OF the fastest
fielders who has ever sprinted across
the Georgia avenue grounds in pursuit
OF line drives.
Musser's drawback, ever since his ad-
vent to the diamond, has been his slow
ness IN getting his stride. For three
years this pitcher has started poorly in
the spring. only to get going in June or
July and developing into the star tWirl-
er on the circuit to which he has been
relegated
AS has been forecast from time to
time in these columns. Collier and
Schwartje and Spencer and Lee are
bound for minor company.
Collier and SchwaTtje are pitchers
who may come along well. but their
careers have thus far been so limited
that they must have further seasoning
before they can hope to compete for
berths as regular members OF the mound
staff. Lee suffers from the same handi-
cap as the two mentioned. while Spencer
has simply been used in the practice
games. and may find his way back to

Starting a Parcel'Post
Market For Eggs,

There are in our cities and
towns many housewives who
would be glad to make arrange.
ments for receiving y supply Of
fresh eggs direct FROM the farm
throughout the ar. Just at
this :ime, when eggs are scarce
and the demand far exceeds the
supply of newly laid eggs, there
is a good opportunity for the
farmer, even though he has but
few eggs to market, to make con-
tract with some city or town fami,
ly to supply them with eggs. The
farmers supply at the present
time will not be great enough,
possibly, to satisfy the demand Of
the city family, but if the matter
is explained it will be easy to
make arrangements to market
eggs by parcel post now and con-
tinue to do so throughout thu
year. In other words, it will be
much easier to make arrange
ments to ship eggs now, when
everybody wants them, than to
do so in the spring, when they
are in abundant supply and when
the housewife can secure good,
fresh eggs in the market any.
where at a normal price. A sat.
isfied winter customer can be
made profitable all-year GUS
toner il proper price adjustments
are made when eggs again become
plentiful. FARMERS Bulletin

Once having secureda parcel

very easy to market many other
things by the same method,
such as butter, poultry, fresh and
cured meats, sausage, fruits,
vegetables, honey, and so On.
