STOCK ON SMALL FARMS.
Sell Mules, Rny Mares and Raise
 Colts, Advice of Experts

The place to begin in the campaign for more live stock in Arkansas is with the small farm. The man who can go out and buy two or three cars of cattle can always take care of himself. The state and govern ment extension division in Arkansas, ;n it's campaign for more live stock, wants that stock on the small farms. It wants the man with one COW to get one or two more: the man with two sows to have five this winter: the man with two yearling steers to feed to go out and buy three more and feed up the rough feed and corn grown on his farm with little cot ton seed meal for the COWS and a little tankage for his hogs. The ex- tension forces want the farmer with two mules to trade them for two mares and raise colts: the man with 20 hens to increase his flock to 100. In other words, it wants every farm CT to use his brains to find ways of growing more feed from given acreage and at the same time to try to see how, much live stock he can feed on his farm. The extension di- vision wants to increase the sources of cash income and to find ways of keeping up the supply of cotton without increa sing the acreage and ways of doubling the feed crops and the "food" crops and doubling the live stock on the small farm.

that the number of men responding to the
call for volunteers appEoximates 1000, 900.
This, I was informed by a recruiting Off
cisl, must be. taken ohlF as an .Nlnotiicial
estimate, as the actual figures ate-held Sc
cref until Lord Derbys report reaches Pre-
mier Asquith's hands.
The rush Of recruits during the last two
weeks has been so great as far to exceed
the rosiest expectations of Lord Derby and
his aids. A considerable proportion OF
those offering themselves failed to meet the
medical requirements.
| am assured that Lord Derby is i'm
mensely elated over the outcome of his
gigantic effort and that it is now likely
that CONSUMPTION win be avoided If the
number as finally revealed falls slightly be-
low the mark. it is more than likely, | am
told, that more men will be obtained by
another call without resoTting TO conscrip-
ton.
While the voluntary recruiting was sup
posed to end Saturday night, the war office
officials, by giving another day to accom-
modate the crowds that were unable to get
themselves attested, owing to the rush in
the last hours, made it possible Sunday for
many thousands more to enlist throughout

London and elsewhere were at work put

]. FRANK BAKER
AND MACK HAVE
COME TO TERMS
"Home Run King" to Re-
join Athletics, but May
Be Traded Later
MACK's IDEA OF GAME

Frank Baker will rejoln the Athletics
This does not mean that he IA certain
to play with the Mackmen next spring,
as IL is possible that he will be traded
during the winter. But Il Is now certain
that he is no longer a hold-out.
After his bitter quarrel with Manager
Mack, which led both parties to declare
that never would they consent to talk
to each other, a reconciliation has been
affected through Ira Thomas.
Manager Mack declared as late ns
August that he never wanted to hear
Bakers name mentioned to him again.
but the continued loss OF games while
other magnates were clamoring to pur-
chase the star evidently caused Mack's
temper 70 cool. and he consented to meet
Baker at Salisbury. Nd, short time
ago and the two parted the best OF
friends.
Mack believes that he convinced the
public once and for all that the game
was bigger than the players. and in re-
fusing to trade or sell Baker at a time
when his services could have brought
record price Mack also showed that he
cared more for principle than money.
When asked what had happened at
tho conference Mack said that he had
no announcement to make at this time
He admitted having a very pleasant talk
with Baker, and said that he might be
considering trades, but would not say
whether Baker would be included.
when 1 make a trade or do business
I don't do 1t with a brass band adver-
tising the fact. may be considering a
trade. and l may have fixed everything
up with Baker. l refuse to make any
statement on this subject. I will not
affirm or deny anything at this time.
II am perfectly satisfied with the out
look. 1 can always use a star ballplayer
who can hit. but there must be more than
that in a man to appeal to me and con-
vince me that he is a winning player. I
| admit that / met Baker at Salisbury, and
we talked over things in general and
parted the best of friends. but 1 don't
care to say anything further"
Baker is said to have admitted that one
| summer of independent baseball was
enough for him, and that he wanted to
| get back into the game next spring. He
made a threat to jump to the Federal
! League IL he was not traded or sold by
the Athletics before the LIST of January,
and this no doubt hastened the recon
| ciliation.
Had Mack allowed Baker to 90 to the
| Federal League in preference to another
| American League team the organized ball
| fans throughout the country would surely
| have protested. Mack CAME to realize
that he had accomplished his purpose in
showing Baker that he was not bigger
than the game. Now he thinks that he
| is entitled to something for the develop
ment of Baker even II he no longer is
OF value to the Athletics.
AS matters now stand II looks as II
Baker is to be traded, but local fans car
| rest assured that IL he is not trades
within a month the differences between
Mack and Baker will be adjusted com
pletely and he will be back at his oil
post at third for the Maclmen mex
spring.

OH! FOR REAL LIVE HEAVYWEIGHT!
LIKE A SULLIVAN, CORBETT OR FITZ
Stock of Big Fighters Dropped to Oblivion Since the
9Os-Willard May Be Better Than is Believed.
Then, Again, He May Be Worse
By GRANTLAND RICE

NTE. WERE watching Frank Moran
w busily engaged in the act Of disar-
ranging Jim Coffey's frontispiece night
or two ago, when a boxing fan at our left
kicked in with this remark What a
change from the good old days Of Corbett,
Fitz and Mccoy; what a pair of dubs
these two are compared to the best men
Of the past"
For the time being we had the same
thought Here were two highly touted
heavyweights in an elimination contest
TO meet the champion of the world.
One, Corey. had fair skill, but a weak
jaw and no defense to protect this jaw
against a slow mover for even three
rounds. The other, Moran had natural
ruggedness and the wallop, but no part
of speed. nothing that resembled alert
agility and certainly no keen grip upon
boxing science.
Corbett or Fitz at their best would have
cut either into crimson ribbons within
five cantos. What a drop there seemed
to be from the old-fashoned days of the
9Os-from the days of Sullivan, Corbett,
Fitz and Jeff.
And Then Again
But after all, there has been no vital
change. The ring has known a one-man
rule for many decades. There was no
one close TO John Lawrence Sullivan
until Corbett knocked him out at New
Orleans, % years ago. Corbett ruled for
four years-until Fitz arrived Fitz had
a three-year monarchy-until Jeffries
smothered him with the might of bulk
Here, If at any stage, came the deca-
dence in heavyweight ranks. The Cali
fornia hear was so far beyond all COM
petition that the art or business of being
a heavyweight went to seed. For it was
a good 10 years before Jeffries toppled
before Johnson. and when Johnson came
there was the same lack of competition
for over four seasons-until johnson,
going back. passed Jess Willard coming
forward.
Now It's Willard
Now Willard has picked up where JEFF
ries and then Johnson left off.
Coffey showed with heavy-set effect
that he was no match for any man with
