at Corvallis, Or, which has a poultry
department, and doubtless could be
of assistance in the matter of in
creasing interest in poultry raising in
your valley"
The agricultural college at Corval-
lis this state, would gladly send lit
erature to anyone interested in poul-
try in this valley, and the Mail trib-
une suggests that farmers of this re-
gion avail themselves OF this oppor-
tunity to obtain free literature on
poultry and how to make it pay.
This literature will explain methods
Of handling chickens and other poul-
try profitably; how to avoid loss
from common and incidental causes;
how to encourage egg production;
how to market and various other
matters pretaining to successful poul-
try raising, both in the utility and
fancy lines.
The proposed poultry show pro-
gram will be replete with informa-
tion on the same subjects and will
afford practical lessons that will be
of great benefit. There ought to be
produced in this valley all of the
poultry and eggs needed for home
consumption and thousands of dol
lars worth to ship away. The mar
ket in the large cities are eager for
the product.

A CURVE MAY BETRAY THE EN-
ISTENCE OF LIFE ON MARS.

Two new canals were added to the
Mars system five or six years ago,
according to DR.. Percival Lowell,
astronomer. Continued observation
of these canals since that time con-
vinces Lowell that they are of arti-
ficial construction and "faultless
curvature, beyond the power of un-
assisted nature to contrive."
Well have to take Lowell's word
for the existence of these canals.
What impresses us Just now is the
perfection he claims for human
endeavor over natures ways.

132 to |; 5 INNINGs-RECoRD
 ONE-SIDED GAME.

While the grand old dope of the dl- amond contains records Of many weird and one-sided contests, there are few that can compare with the game played by the Atlantics and Forest Citys forty-five years ago to- day. May 17, 1870. Nowadays when a team accumulates a dozen runs in the course of nine innings the defeat is considered something of swatfest, but in the pastime referred to the Forest Citys defeated the Atlantics by the lop-s sided score of 132 to l, and that, too, in five innings. This was an. average of over twenty-six runs to the inning for the Forest Citys. Nor is it to be considered that the clubs en- gagged were ''bushers." The Forest City aggregation of Rockford, Ill., had
 inits lineup A. G. Spalding. Cap" Anson and Ross" Barnes, three of the most iflustrious names in baseball. The Atlantics of Brooklyn ranked among the top-notchers of the dia. mond of that period, and had several famous players. Later in the same year the Atlantics were the first to shatter the reputation of the Cincfn- natl Red stockings. The Cincinnati club in 1869 travelled from Maine to California and to Canada and played fifty-seven games without being de- feated. The Red Stockings had their closest call in a game with the Rock ford Forest Citys. Up to the ninth in- ming the Forest Citys held the lead but in the final chapter the Red Stockings got three runs across the plate and won the game by a score of 15 to IA. In 1870, the Atlantics, who' had made such a miserable showing against the Forest Citys, broke the winning streak of the Cincinnati clubs. winning by score of to on the Capitol grounds in Brooklyn.
 The Rockford club was a charter member of the National association. the first baseball league and parent body of the National league. which was launched in 1871. Baseball made strange bed fellows in those days. for small cities as well as large were in cluded in the circuit Those who scoffed at the major league preten- sions of the Federal league because 1t included Indianapolis, Kansas City, Buffalo and Baltimore ought to de- rive a lot of amusement from the list

of towns in the first National circuit: New York Mutuals, Philadelphia Ath- letics, Chicago, Boston, Cleveland. Washington Olympics. Troy. N. Y.. Haymakers Fort Wayne, Ind, KelSi- onigas, and Rockford, Forest Citys. Hartford, Conn, Worcester, Mass, Sy- racuse, N. Y., Keokuk, Ia., and other comparatively small cities were at a later period represented in the oldest major league.
 In the years preceding the inaug- uration of professional baseball, and for some time thereafter large scores were the rule rather than exception. Contests usually commenced early in the afternoon--sometim even in the morning-and continued until dark. In 1869. at Buffalo. the Niagaras de- feated the Columbias by a score of 209 to 10, which stands as record for number of runs, although not quite so one-sided as the Atlhnkic- Forest City contest In 1875 the base ball fans were startled by the report of a game in St. Louis in which Chica- go defeated the home club by an anlaz- ing score of 1 to o. At first fans did not take kindly to that sort of Q game, and hungered for more action. With the authorization of overhanc pitching In 1884 and the consequent improvement in twirling, the day of big scores passed. and baseball began to assume it's present form.
