entitled The Deserted Ranch" whose
metrical architecture reminds Us Of the
masterpieces Of Walt Whitman;
The old house looked 50 lonely,
The elms so rugged and Wild,
That the birds no longer built nests
upon their sturdy boughs,
Or the wind among their giant tops
Blow 80 sweet and mild.
The old house too was deserted
And weather-bea and old,
And the window psnes had vanished.
And left great gaping holes.
The fences had long gone to ruin
Stray cattle had eaten the grain,
And deep trenches IN the meadow had
been washed deeper
By the rains.
Yes the old ranch was deserted
And left TO wither away

the field.
Three years ago, when Dr. Howells
medical duties were demanding most
of his time. Fritz. who had graduated

task and turned out a very success
ful team. That year Central defeated
Central Manual, the first time in
years.
Fritz's exploits on the football and
baseball fields. as well as in the bas-
ket ball cage, earned for him a place
among the best athletes ever turned
out by the Philadelphia schools He
was a star in each of these fields. On
leaving Central High he went into

COMISKEY Tells why
He PURCHASED COLLINS

Charles A. Comiskey comes out in
the special Eddie Collins-March num-
Der Of the Baseball Magazine with a
statement as to why he purchased
Collins. He also gives the interested
public an inkling Of his reason for
appointing his new manager. Clar-
ence Rowland. Comiskey says
have watched Collins come into
the league and develop. While follow
ing his daily performances in contend
ing against our club on the southside
grounds, / have become convinced that
he was without a doubt as great a
ball player from every angle as any
playing the infield today l secured
him for the White Sox fans simply be-
cause / considered him a premier, all
round player in batting, base running
and fielding.
Still another advantage in Collins is
his quick-thinking brain, a most es-
sential talent in the ball club con-
tending for a pennant If the White
Sox are fortunate enough to have his
services throughout the championship
season of 1915, believe he will prove
to the fans of this country that he is
the greatest exponent of quick think
ing the brainiest player in the game.
1t is always my aim to give the pat
rons of the Sox a heavy hitter when
ever such a player appears and can be
gotten for money or the equivalent
My energy is expended at all times
in searching through minor leagues
for heavy-hitting talent that will
make my ball club a pennant-winning
one. Chappelle was sought by e ry
ball club in both major leagues He
was tOuted a wonder not only by other
scouts but by my own also as probably
the greatest minor-league hitter of the
time. | made up my mind l would Sc
cure him at any price, and did not
see how 1 could make a mistake as
all the experts seemed agreed about
him and so many clubs wanted him.
So / secured him for my club for the
main purpose of Strengthening the
White SoX in the batting lineup. But
unfortunately for the Sox Chappelle
was taken down with blood poisoning
in our spring practice of 1914 and so
has been unable up to the present
time to give me the service they say
he is capable of giving in the batting
line. However good a man may be,
the owner cannot guard against his
being sick and in consequence never
knows how much or how little he may
count upon the very player he needs
most.
I am putting the club in charge of a
new manager this year. which may
cause surprise to some people. This
is always an important move, but
] have considered it carefully Row
! land is by no means a new man tc
me. have been watching his work
most carefully in the minor leagues
for the past seven or eight years, and
have been greatly impressed with nj:
aggressiveness and his judgment
He is particularly good at picking
bali players, and has sent up quite ;
few to the White Sox during that time
l cannot say that we will win thu
pennant this year. ] hope we may

What Do You Want

wish you would inform me
through your sporting column how to

bases full and nobody down, batter
hits a long fly to deep centre. Centre
fielder catches the bali and throws TO

after the catch. crediting the batter

with one run The man from second
also scores on the same fly. making
him-the man who was on second

what would like to know is if the
man who was on second gets credit
for stolen base. He scored all the
way from second base without an
error being made on the relay.

Some Sidelighfs on The Sporting Game

Rixey and Mayer should prove good
men; Demaree is rather an unknown
quantity.
Bresnahan is more fortunate. He is
taking the field with practically the
same crowd he worked with last year
and one that on paper should be
contender all the way. Pierce, Laven-
der, Vaughn and Cheney. with several
others make a pitching staff that can't
be sneezed at and the batting and
fielding strength is back of it,
The lightweight situation remains
about the same today. after Freddie
Welsh and Joe Shugrue's ten-rOund
bout at Madison Square Garden last
night. Welsh is still the champion anu
Shugrue remaines a contender The
bout was very unsatisfactory from
the spectators viewpoint. There
wasn't a whole lot of action. Critics
divided today. A few gave Shugrue
the edge and some called it draw.

Southdown 10 Good Breed.

. This is not enough. The breeding
eve should secure more feed than
maintenance requires If she is to dc
well for her owner-she must be con
tinually gaining in flesh.
Probably the greatest damage re
sulting to a eve on account of a rain
Is the discomfort that follows the
wetting. Think how unpleasant 1t Is
to work in wet clothes! How much
worse it is, therefore, for the eve who
is naturally of a tender nature, to
undergo the discomfort resulting from
carrying around damp fleece. In the
summer time when 1t is warm it is
bad enough, but in the winter it is
awful.
The fleece, being very dense, it is
days before the water will entirely
evaporate. Then the greatest amount
of the evaporation is caused by the
heat of the animals body.
Just try to think Of the heat neces-
sary to evaporate the large amount OF
water that a thoroughly saturated
fleece would hold. Many sheep have
caught colds from this very cause
that resulted in inflammation, even
worse, catarrh.
Rheumatism is often one of the re.
suits and sheep once the victim OF
this disease is of very little value.
What, then, is the remedy? 1t is
simple. Provide your sheep with dry
shelter close to their pasture. 1t need
not be costly barn. A shed is plenty
good enough provided 1t is water
tight, and 1t need not be especially
warm If it is only dry.
