NOTES ofMe
 DIAMOND

Ted Sullivan may take a team oi baseball players to Ireland this fall give Pitcher Fahrer of the Dayton club chance to make good in the big show in the near future
 The Nashville club has secured Jack Diamond, catcher and utility man, from Hutchinson. in the Kansas State league.
 Papers around the Eastern associa- tion circuit are loud in praise of Jake Boultes for the way he has handled the Bridgeport club.
 President Comiskey is angling for Player Isaacs of Dubuque. Isaacs is third baseman. and is making good in the Three I league.
 Dave Gregg, brother of the invinci- ble Vean, has been turned over to Ed monton, in the Western Canada league, by Spokane, on an optional agreement.
 Bob Bescher is a player after Mo- Graw's own heart. The former Fed is making a strenuous bid for the ti- tie of leading base-stealer of the league.
 Vean Gregg is greatly relieved to get away from Cleveland. He has no regrets that he has landed with 8 team up near the top instead of being with rank tail-ender.
 President Maier of the Venice Coast league turned down $1O,00O offer for Ed Kiepfer, former Yankee, because he figured the absence of Klepfer would take away his pennant chances.
 Hap" Hogan will take his Venice (CaL) Tiger baseball team to Honolu- lu next November for six weeks trip that will include a month at the islands and seven games of base ball,
 Tom Tennant of the Sacramento club set new Coast league record for | first basemen in a recent game, when he had but two chances in eight in- nings, getting one put out and one assist.
 Pitcher Ehmke Is one of several Coast league players for whose serv- ices George Stovall will angle, ac- cording to letter received from the Kansas City Fed boss by one of his Los Angeles friends.
 
 It has been noticed that the umpires this season are firing players from | games as usual. but are not fining them as of yore. Players don't mind being benched, but they hate those fines. Perhaps the Feds are to blame for this, too.

the road tax should not be used for putting the highways in good condi- tion for travel. says Northwestern Ag- riculturist. The split log drag and other road-making implements should be put to work before the ground freezes. The outside of the roads should be brought into the center of the track which will establish crust that will shed the water. rather than retain rains, which are sure to occur during the late fall and early spring months. Roads having full-high cen ter are quite sure to remain in good condition during the rainy season of fall and spring. Steep hills, where wa ter Is apt to collect in wheel tracks, should be provided with open gutters on each side into which rains may be diverted with an occasional crest over which water cannot pass. Approaches to bridges and culverts should be so filled with earth that vehicles of all kinds may pass over them without serious jolts and jars. Roads are much improved when covered with gravel. This is season of the year when such work can be accomplished at mini- mum expense Every township should own gravel pits from which road-ma- king material can be cheaply obtained. Concrete roads will soon become pop ular. The same material only should be used in making small bridges and culverts. A good quality of sand and gravel Is necessary to make service able concrete. Every farmer should have a special interest in all roads ad- joining his premises and leading to market.

sALlDAeunNIsoN HIGHWAY.
Road Over Cochetopa Pass to Open New State Highway.

Road Over coehetopa Pass to Open
 New State Highway.
 Denver.-Constructio work on the new link in the Salida-Gunnison high way leading over Cochetopa Pass is nearing completion, reports the road engineer of the forest service upon his return to Denver headquarters. The road crew at work on a strip eight and a half miles in length over the pass is making excellent progress, and with favorable weather conditions should finish the road before winter sets in. This new link. covering a distance Of sixteen miles, is 8 cooperative pro ject between Saguache county and the forest service, each party sharing equally the cost of construction. Work was begun last year, at which time three miles was put through, outside of the boundary of the Cochetopa for. est by the county commissioners, and four and half miles was built inside the forest under the supervision of tho forest officers.
 According to the road engineer, this strip is a double track roadbed and fol- lows a natural water grade, on . southern exposure. through the forest, thus eliminating any need for large bridges. The average maximum grade is but ak per cent, of which there is not more than three miles in the az gregate, the remaining portion of the road consisting of easy gradeA By reason of the low elevation, absence oe steep grades, and the open country through which it passes. 1t is expected that the Cochetopa Pass road will form one of the best and most trav- eled state highways across the conti- mental divide.

hit, then will he hit, and all the news paper comment in the world will not make him hit. T never talk to a man who is not hitting" says Fred Clarke, manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates. What is the use? I have been in slumps myself and know what they are. I waited. There have been oth- CT periods when I didn't feel right at the plate and I couldn't for the life of me feel confident and able to hit When man is in slump he must come out of 1t by his own natural process. All the talking and coaxing in the world will not cure him, but may only serve to annoy him."

HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT
DEMAND FOR BETTER ROADS
No Reason Why Portion of Tax Should Not 6e Used In Putting Highways
 In Better Condition.

There Is growing demand for more and better road making during the autumn months. In many locali- ties the roads become filled with deep ruts and the wheel tracks SO de- pressed during the summer that they collect rains which soon wash them Into gutters which soon ruin the roads for heavy loads and comfortable travel

The age is progressive. Fifty or sixty years ago this country began to build railroads, and now we'have more than nearly all the rest of the world together. In place of crude industrial facilities, we have the very best on earth; yet we are behind other civil ized nations in the improvement of our roads. We are beginning now to do with our highways what should have been done long ago.

Wdnmoth CdVe on Gave Creek
 One of the scenic resources of Ari- zona of which little is known Is tho mammoth cave on Cave creek in the Chiricahua mountains northeast of Douglas. It is only few miles from the border land automobile road and with a little effort can be made a great attraction for that highway. It is said this cavern has never been fully explored and is believed to be as large and in all probability equally as interesting as the Mammoth cave of Kentucky.
