SOME PITCHING

Agra, kan. Aug. 81. In
the recent baseball tourna-
ment here Adams, pitcher for
the local team, made a sensa-
tional record in. the three
games he hurled. In the three
contests he allowed only nine
hits and struck out 81 of the
104 batters who faced him.

"We freely admit that we have

eve freely admit that we have
made many mistakes. You can all
see them for on a farm it is i'm
possible to cover errors of judg-
ment for any length of time. we
hope that the mistakes we make
will keep you from making the
same ones. That is one of the OBJ
iects of these institutions.
1--WE naturall; have great
many visitors during the course
of the year. A few have seemed
much interested in the work we
are doing, others have compll-
mented us upon the general ap-
pearance of the farm, while others
who apparently fail to appreciate
the object of college farm and
think that it should be a money
making enterprise, criticize us for
one reason or another.
when Prof. McCue planned his
main orchard experiment to deter
mine the food requirements OF
peach and apple trees, he selected
a most important piece of work
and one that has already demon
strated it's value and promises to
aid materially in restoring a pro-
fitable peach industry to Delaware
"While the scientific expert
mental data that Prof. McCue has
gathered are of the utmost i'm
portance and are worth many
times the cost, nevertheless the
S3,lOO that the fruit sold for last
year did not detract from the
value of the experiment and it
did a great deal to help out the
treasury. $500 goes a long way
toward paying for the labor, the
fertilizer, the spraying materials,
and other expenses incident to
conducting such research work.
"What has been said of the or
chards will apply with equal force
to the experiments that are being
carried on with the live stock. AT
present the State owns a herd of
cattle and pigs that would sell at

brace the good of the whole State.
when you consider all of these
progressive facts and mark the
stress which the papers are daily
placing on popular education,
surely we have reason to thank
God, and take courage in the social
work that awaits us in Delaware.
"Our hearts sicken daily as we
read of the waste and horrors of
war on the battle-felds of Europe.
Civilization is there committing
suicide. 1t is grateful to us to
turn to the constructive tasks fac
ing us in Delaware, and to pledge
ourselves anew today to energize
all of these agencies that promise
a sounder civic life to our people,
issuing in sweeter homes, more
fertile fields, healthier bodies, bet
ter roads, more efficient schools,
and churches more responsive to
the deepest needs Of humanity.
Professor Hayward's Greeting
Professor Harry Hayward, di-
rector of the Delaware College Ex-
pertinent Station, in the course of
his address, said:
'It is needless for me to tell you
how glad we are to see you. The
members of the farm staff cannot
fail to gather a fund of informa.
tion that is of greater value to
those who have the responsibility
of the care of the land because we
meet many farmers during the
year who tell us their experiences
In addition we are constantly
having problems of our own tc
solve. The suggestions we gel
from you help us in our work here
and we hope that we can be of as
sistance to others by using the in
formation we gain from working
out our own difficulties and from
what we learn from some of you
another reason why we like tt
have you come to the college farm
is that we cannot help feeling {
little proud Of what we have tt
show you.

BOOSTS AND KNOCKS
The game between Newark and
Elk Mills on the latter's ground
Saturday should be battle royal.
Nothing in the league seems to
be able to stop the New Castle
bunch although Parkside is but
one game behind.
Parkside turned the trick with
a patched up team.
Elk Mills victory was a sur
prise although when he is right
there are no better pitchers in the
league than Wilson.
Some Elkton friends of Scots
got sore after the shortstop wa:
taken out of the game and rooted
for Parkside the remainder of thu
game.
Hogan pitched good enough bal
to win nine out of ten games bu
the club is in batting slump JUS

men in the Parkside lineup bu
they all did good work.

Real Sanitation in Air Towel.

An ''air towel used in the large
public lavatory in the District build
ing at Washington, D. c., is the inven-
ton of j. M. Ward, superintendent of
the District building. In appearance
it resembles a rectangular box eleven
inches by three, set in a sanitary base
having twelve-inch legs, with an open
ing in the top of the case in which
the wet hands are held while being
dried. The device consists of a blow
er that forces air through an electric
heating element to ducts and deflectors
suitably placed for distributing the
warmed air to all parts of the hands
at the same time, and is operated by
4 foot lever or pedal, which in turn
operates a quick-acting switch, there
by setting the blower in motion. By
removing the foot the device is put
out of operation. The hands come in
contact with no part of the device,
thus assuring a perfectly sanitary OPP
