Sporting Notes.

Lewis continues to drive in the runs
Cravath finally got a long drive
safe.
Brattleboro high started well in its be-
lated football season.
Shore and Alexander have each won
and lost a game in the series.
Paskert, who had seven put outs in CEN
terrified Monday, had five yesterday
Bancroft, the Philadelphia shortstop, did
not have a fielding chance yesterday.
The first basemen, Hobltzel and Luz
derus, shared the batting honors with
three singles each.
The Phillies picked up little yes
terday in their hitting, but not enough
to deliver the game.
Clarence Rowland, "busher' man
ager of the White Sox, has been en-
gagged for another year.
Mathewson predicts that the Phillies
will carry the series to tie at three
games each. Matty has not always been
accurate to his predictions.
A wild yelp for help has gone out
from New Haven and in a day or two
some of the old-time stars will be gath
ering there to aid Coach Hinkey.
1t looks as if KilIifer, first string
catcher of the Phillies, must be mighty
good to do any better work than
Burns has done to date in the series.
The Brattleboro high school football
team will play its second game of the sea
son Saturday afternoon at Saxtons River
with the Vermont academy team. This is
a Glover league game.
With six putouts, one assist and a bat

very much in evidence. This is especially

times at bat produced the winning run

BRATTLEBORO HIGH
WINS OPENING GAME
Easily Defeated Keene High, 20 to 12
-Eascd Up in Last Period, Seek
ing Only Defensive PIay.

The football team of the Brattle
bOrO high school played its first game
of the season in Keene, n. H., yester-
day with the Keenea high team and
won easily by a score of % to IL.
Brattleboro did about as it pleased
during the first three periods, but in
the last period their play materially
slowed and they sought only to play "a
defensive game, Keene being able to
score two touchdowns, but failed to
kick either goal.
There were times when the Brattle-
boro interference swung around the
ends, giving admirable protection to
the runner, but in other instances
there was considerable to be desired
in this respect. Capt. Estey kicked a
pretty goal from the field from the
3O-yard line and made two of the
touchdowns, the other two being made
by Gallup and Plumb. Estey kicked
two of the goals from touchdowns.

Russia viii Pay Up Her Debts.

In the American Magazine a well
known American banker writes an arti-
Gle entitled 'The Money Side of the War
which Is full OF interesting and important
facts as to Russia's credit. and the fright
full cost OF the war. He q in part:
Some people are inclined TO hav mis-
givings as to Russian credit. but / believe
such fears may be dismissed. No nation
of T0,OO0,00 0 people, with the huge re-
sources that Russia has, is going to be
unable to pay its debts. Further, Russia
has in the past shown scrupulous regard
for her obligations. Throughout the Cri-
mean war, with Great Britain fighting as
a bitter enemy, Russia scrupulously sent
gold to London to pay the coupons on
her bonds that were held by English in
vestors. That was a notable testimony to
her endeavor at all costs TO preserve her
financial integrity.
TO England, she IS looking not only
after her own affairs, but helping others
also. She loaned SEQ, 0Oo. 900 to Russia ear
ly in the war; $50 100000 to Belgium; So
100000 to Serbia She has loaned almost
800. 900, 900 to France. To her own people
a few weeks g she offered a loan OF
almost $2,0o0,O 900, 900. 1t was over-sub-
scribed. At the beginning of the war the

account new funded Indebtedness and

Loaarberry Evolution.

from the News.
A few years ago ~loganberry vines in the
northwest were turned up In quantities be-
cause the berry was too soft for shipping
and the local market at harvest time was
always glutted. Now the berry is one OF
the most popular OF the small fruits in
the same section, n it's acreage is In
creasing each year, An enterprislng
grower tried evaporating the sloganberries
In prune driers and the product sent to
Aberdeen, s. D., brought a price OF 23h
cents a pound. This price meant that a
loganberry field yielding the average crop
of five tons an acre would give a profit of
nearly 800. The eyaporated berries proved
popular, and there were calls for more OF
them. Carloads OF the berries were
shipped, and instead OF lowering prices,
seemed only to cause an Increased de-
mand. During the season OF 1913 the de-
mand from Chicago and other centers for
the berries could not be met. Buyers
came to cooperative associations and
wen to the growers individually, offering
unprecedented prices. The seasons prod
net, according to the Technical World,
was sold at an average price OF 23h cents
a pound. 1t was found that the juice
content OF the fresh berries ran as high as
50 per cent. exceeding the pound for
pound yield OF juice In the grape by Is to
IL per cent. The juice was palatable and
bottling OF the Juice was started on a
small scale by a few growers with the
cooperative associations giving over
small lots o. the fruit for trial. The Salem
Fruit union, a cooperative association OF
farmers, bottled $500 gallons. The entire
amount was sold with ease, and double
the quantity could have been sold.
