TY COBB

IVY CUBE
 Ty Cobb is Henry Ford's assistant
 in the job of keeping Detroit in the head lines.
 However he does not make autOmo- piles. He merely wins one now and then. He is a soloist by profession the highest price swat soloist in the world. There is no Sweeter music to a Detroit citizen than a harsh note from Ty Cobbs bat in the seventh in ming with three men on bases and the
 so couldn't fill Detroits ball park once in a life-t time, but Cobb has been do- ing it for ten years.
 Cobb is a very young man. not yet old enough to become a senator. He was born in Georgia and spent his youth batting humble bees with a broomstick. Later, he practiced hit ting horseflies with a curtain rod and gradually became so proficient that he could pick up a slim waisted walk ing stick and bang two bases out of a rifle ball most any time. He then joined the Detroit baseball team and began to upset statistics on batting averages.
 Cobb has been almost as disastrous to pitchers as that other great base ball character, Charley Horse. He not only bats spit balls, slow balls and serpentine twists with great ease and fluency, but he is distinguished for his restlessness on bases. flea is phlegmatic beside this eminent young example of southern languor. His most permanent address is half way between first and second making faces at the pitcher. He can run faster than a darkey chased by a graveyard and has a way of lying down when approaching second and feeling for the base with his versatile and prehensile feet which is very cor rosive on the nerves of the opposing catcher and baseman. Cobb steals twice as many bases as any other man in the business. This is because, like every other Georgian, he is pas sionately fond of home and begins suffering from nostalgia whenever he gets on first base.
 Cobb is quick tempered young man and breaks into the police re- ports now and then by messing up a spectator who has called him names This is considered to be great fault However the baseball going public needs more Cobbs on the diamond. The spectator who throws his good breeding away with his cigar stub when he enters the bleachers needs more strenuous education than can be given him by a million editorials on good sportsmanship.

WHEN TO CUT ALFALFA.

For all classes of animals except
horses, alfalfa should be cut for hay
when the new shoots or stems begin
to appear at the crown. These are
easily seen just as they come up
among the old stems at about the be-
ginning Of blossoming time. Cut
ting earlier than this is not desirable
or profitable, since the yield will be
smaller and the hay will be more diff
ficult to cure. It shauld not be al
lowed to get much beyond this stage
for two reasons: G)) )AlthOugh a
somewhat heavier first cutting of hay
can be secured by allowing it to stand
longer than the time recommended
the hay is neither as palatable, nor as
nutritious. CD Leaving the first crop
after it is at the proper stage to cut
delays and reduces the second crop,
since the new shoots coming from the
crown are cut off with the first crop.
When alfalfa is to be fed to horses,
it may be allowed to grow slightly
longer than when it is to be fed to
cattle, but it should never be left un-
til the second crop is injured in cut
ting the first crop.-A. c. Army.

HAIR FLIES AT ORPHANAGE
500 Heads Trimmed by so DO-a-Good-
Deed BARRIERS.

Philadelphia Public Ledger
The hair flew at ST. Johns Orphan
age, Forty ninth street and Wyalus-
ing avenue. Fifty union BARRIERS were
cutting the hair on 500 little heads.
1t was the first OF a series of Sunday
visits the BARRIERS contemplate making
to charitable institutions in the city.
The roof Of the orphanage building
was the scene of the wholesale clipp-
ing. Fifty chairs were occupied most
of the afternoon. The SO BARRIERS cut
ten heads each. The style produced
in every case was the feather edge,
which means to remove all of the
hair save enough in front to permit
the boy to comb it.
Some time ago members of the
Journeymen BARRIERS Union decided
that they should devote some part of
their day off, which is Sunday, to
some good purpose. One of them
suggested the idea Of donating a hir-
cut to the orphans and invalids in
local institutions. 1t was approved
unanimously.
There seemed to be some doubt,
however, that the institutions would
permit such operations on Sunday,
and it was not until the last moment
that the BARRIERS were allowed to carry
out their plan at the orphanage. But
as one Of the sisters at the institution
said, II suppose God will approve
kindness Of heart, whether it be ex-
pressed on Sunday or any other day"
