MAGEE THREATENs no QUTT

Kansas City, Mo, July 30.-'I'm m
going to communicate with the
Brooklyn owner and tell him unless
we get better umpiring and better
breaks on the decisions I'm going to
resign" LIE Magee, manager of the
Brooklyn Federal League team de-
Jared here to-day. The statement fol-
lowed the news that he had been
fined and suspended for attacking
Umpire Corcoran during a game here
yesterday.
II was put out of the first game of
the season and 1 have been the butt
of every umpire's anger since that
time. They've been after me be-
cause I'm known as an aggressive
player and manager. Every time
open my mouth on the field 1 am
sent to the clubhouse.
Umpire Corcoran hit me first in
our miXup, and 1 wouldn't let him
make a fool out of me. have
schooled my players into being ag-
gressive, and l am not going to play
ladylike baseball just to please some

SENATOR PEVROSE
URGES BIG PRESERVE
Tells State SpOrtsmen Opportunity
Is Here; Legislature Should
Get Busy Early

Wilkes-Barre, July 80. -, United
States Senator Boies Penrose, at the
Annual banquet OF the United Sports
men of Pennsylvania, last night, urged
early activity for big forest domain.
The Senator spoke on "Conserva-
tion," and called attention of the
sportsmen to the need of acquiring as
rapidly as possible all the remaining
wild lands of the State. He urged
Jealous activity in having the Ctate ac-
quire a forest area, 5000, 900 acres in
extent, forming a magnificent domain
for conservation and preservation of
game, recreation and pleasure of the
whole people for all time. In part he
said:
Pennsylvania has a magnificent
forest area of 100000 acres, but we
should all exert our graf and ramify-
ing influence, as an army of sports
men, to insist that the legislature, as
rapidly as possible, shall acquire for
the State the remaining barren for
est areas, some 100000 or 100000
acres in amount l urge, therefore,
your jealous activity in having the
State acquire a forest area of some
3 100000 acres in extent, forming a
magnificent domain for conservation
and preservation of game, and even,
may say, of men. and for the health,
recreation and pleasure of the whole
people for all time.
Several years ago I obtained per-
mission from the Secretary of the In
terror for the capture of so elk in the
National Park, to be transported to
Pennsylvania. The experiment re-
garding the tablishment of elk in
the wild state in Pennsylvania in the
opinion of the Game Commission has
proved successful. The elk appear to
be increasing. Four or more calves
were reported born in 1913, and fully
twice that number have been reported
as seen this year. In a journey
through the central part of Pennsyl-
vania month ago l went partly up
one of the mountains and discovered
the mountain side fairly tramped down
by bands of elk. In fact, so plentiful
have deer become that, together with
the elk, they have become in some
sections a considerable cause of de-
lstruction to agricultural interests
IT hope the Game Commission will
see it's way clear to bring some buffalo
into the State, so that these noblest of
American animals may again form
feature of our forest areas. Centur-
les ago herds of wild buffalo fed in our
fields and on our hills"

oFVtIuI 70 7 Hs tItSFuFH
Marysville, Pa, July 3O.-With his
shoulder in a cast, Captain Foster
Palmer of the Marysville Dauphin-
Perry League team, is directing his
team from the bench. Palmer frac-
tured his shoulder blade two weeks
ago and will not be able to play
during the remainder of the season.
Palmer was one of the fastest play
ers in the league.
The team was going at a fast pace
when the accident occurred. Pal
mer's absence from the game may
terially weaken Marysville's chance
for the rag. He was third in batting
at the time of the accident, and was
one of the teams best fielders. His
headwork helped Marysville we'll up
in the race, while the team was in
a batting slump during the early
weeks of the season.

Healthy Hogs.

The growing hog is the healty hog.
The healthy hog is the profitable hog.
a great deal of the sickness among
the hog tribes Of this continent is di-
reCtly due to poor management. We
say this knowing that hog cholera Is
a germ disease and liable to be trans
mitted by various mediums. There
are, of course, many cholera infected
herds on the farms of careful man
ayers, but the prevalence of the dis
ease here is in spite Of the care of
the owner and not because of his
neglect. But hog cholera would not
be the pestilenCe that ii is, involving
losses of millions of dollars, if the
hog was treated as a clean animal
instead of a lover of filth and un-
cleanness. To view some Of the yards
and pens where we kept our hog
families one would almost conclude
that there was a place for everything
but everything was not in it's place.
would advocate in advance of hog
cholera attacks and in advance Of
hog cholera serums that every hog
raiser make an effort to keep his hogs
healthy by means Of good feed and
good care, and barring epidemics
when the neighbours dog, or an in
nOcent sparrow may Introduce the I'M
welcome germ, the chances of a herd
healthy porkers is more likely TO
be maintained than would be the case
under opposite conditions. b. Hen
