 Stick.

Media, Penn, Sept. 6.-The Dela- ware County league season will end today and the four clubs in the league will play games with independent clubs with the exception of Upland the new champions of the league, who will play series of games with Col umbia of the. Delaware River league for the championship of Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
 Despite the fact that there is a whole lot of talk about J. F'ranklin Baker flirting with the Federal league and that he, would like to get back into the American league, the Home Run King, declares that he has no desire to return to the major leagues and ne is now bending his efforts to build up a strong team for Upland next season.
 John P. Crozier, packer of Upland, is anxious for Baker to remain with Upland next season, and it is gen. orally understood that Baker has de- cided to remain in the Delaware County league, where he will get much larger salary next season. Man. ager Miller, of Upland, declares that Baker will play with Upland next sea- son.
 Baker is the leading hitter of the league, and his average is .43S, and yet the big slugger has been purpose ly walked on an average of once each game.

WOMAN TENNIS CHAMP RELINQUISHES HONORS
Norwegian Woman Champion Goes Down to Defeat Before Mrs.
 Wightnan.

Cedarhurst, l. L., Sept. 6.-Mrs- George W. Wightman of the Long, wood Cricket club, Boston, defeated Miss Molla Bjurstedt of Norway, na- tional champion, yesterday in the final round of the women's invitation tennis tournament on the courts of the Rockaway Hunting club, Cedar hurst. The Boston racquet wielder won in straight sets at 6-l, 6-4. It was the second time Miss Bjurstedt has been beaten in cup match this season. Mrs wightman, formerly Miss Hazel Hotchkiss, one time hold CT of the California and national championships was the finalist against the Norwegian player for the nation al championship, which she lost in three sets.
 A big gallery witnessed the con- test, the spectators including many of the players in the national tour nament at Forest Hills, and Henry w. Slocum acted as referee. The showers before the match made the courts heavy, and the champion, who usually depends largely on her speed was not seen at her best. In addition she did not show the same confidence that has marked her playing since IeE SenSdJlOndl QeDuI at lIle luuOOL cha mpionships at the Seventh Regi- ment Ar!nory.
 Mrs Wightman played with her old hard-hitting drives and uncovered a clever chop stroke, which discon- certed her opponent. She hammered { away at the back hand of her fa- nous adversary, always outplacing her in the rallies Miss Bjursdedt was unsteady and her attack at the net was not as successful as usual, nor as spirited .aa #."
 The first game of the opening set went to deuce eight times before Miss Bjurstedt won. Mrs. Wightman then overwhelmed her opponent and ran six straight games for the match, 6-1. Mrs. Wightman continued her winning streak and added three more game before losing, giving her nine consecutive games against the cham pion. The latter carried the score to all, when Mrs. Wightman ran out the set and match.

JEANS JOTTINGS.

Speculation on the chances of the Red Sox and Phillies in the worlds series is waste of time at present because neither is sure of its own pennant, and a waste of time any time because there's too much that can upset form in a seven game series. No matter who wins the Ma tional and who the American League pennant it's an even thing, nothing more or less.
 It's worth more than ten cents to see: Dave Robertson sprint to first; ! Ty Cobb taking an extra base on a tumble; Herzog's pepper; Speakers pursuit of fly balls; Alexander's hook; 1 Crawford pound the sphere; Snyder's i throwing; Klem's umpiring. The Giants go west this week with 1 the same outlook as last time-the l outlook about even for finishing fifth or last. The pitching is better than it was when they headed west before and that might help in ascending e notch or so.
 i In his short National League career l Nehf of the Braves has shut out three l teams, Pirates, Reds and Dodgers. His pitching ought to be considerable help to Stallings in the rush to over haul the Phillies
 With the physical equipment they have and the experience they are get ting this season Schauer and Ritter ought to prove valuable pitchers for McGraw next year.
 The Tanks visit Boston before re- turning to the Polo Grounds this week. Since they went away their percentage of victories is .274--fve won and fourteen lost-and the only hope for them not to return with a still leaner average is this you never can tell thing.
 For the year 1915 it will be re- corded that among those who at- tended the finals as spectators only were Messrs. Behr, Ouimet, Travers, Evans, Mack and McGraw.
 The behavior of the Braves one day last week was not so much pep per as pure and unadulterated rowdy- ism, but the suspension of Evers didn't matter much against the Brooklyns who were soft picking in the last two games.
 That oversight of William Evans in allowing a batter on whom a third strike was dropped when a runner was on first to go to the base shows that umpires as we'll as players can commit bones, also that the best um- pires, like the best players, are not exempt.
 The versatility of MT. Sisler of the Browns sets one to raking memory to find another of that sort. Jimmy Callahan was a fine all around man. He could pitch, play the in and out field up to the handle, could hit and could run like a deer. Then again, his versatilities included managing a point to which Sisler has not yet progressed.
 Next year Baltimore will have one of the strongest teams in the coun- try" says James A. Gilmore. How does he know and where is Balti- more going to get it from? Base ball history shows that no matter what plans are made for strength ening there Is absolutely no guaran- tee that strong team will result and anybody who so predicts is either green or the greatest seer the world ever produced.
 It begins to look strongly as if the four ball teams of Greater New York would grand average a place in the second division at the finish.

things that hinder the production of
tings that hinder the production of
Indian corn greatly, in some Sec
ti0ns of New Mexico. Some of the
difficulties are easily solved, some
are not. However. the one caused
by the presence Of the Corn Stalk
Borer is the one that can be easily
overcome, since the insect spends the
winter in the extreme lower end
of the tap-root of the corn stalk.
There are two generations n sea-
son. The first is spent in the leaf
portion of the plant and the second
in thestalk itself. On this account
spraying is not feasible, 81 we must
look to some other method. Flowing
is the solution of the problem.
The larvae winter in the stalks.
The logical thing, then. j. to get
rid of these stalks. and the best way
Ia do this l. to pillow them under in
the fall.ihus burying the larvae so
that they cannot get out. But slnce il
is spring now instead of fall. the
remedy is To pillow the stalks up, rake
and burn them. The writer has not
heard Of these insects bothering the
fcterita, etc., but since they were
brought to this country in sugar cane,
spreading from the Southern States
growing this crop to practically ev-
cry corn growing state. it may be
that some day the sorghums will sue.
