IS innings AND
N0ESCORE AT PARK
BANKERS AND LUMBERMEN EN-.
GAGE IN THE MOST EXCITING
CONTEST OF SEASON.

The game between the Bankers and
Lumbermen at Hamper Park yester-
day afternoon, went Is innings to a
draw.
1t was the greatest pitchers battle
seen here since Ross Helm pitched
his 10 inning game against Clarks-
dale in 1904 to a IL draw
Cox was anxious for revenge for
the 1 to 13-inning defeat dished out
to him Saturday and his teammates
were equally as anxious for a victory
Holmes and his teammates were de-
termined to duplicate the performance
of Saturday.
A great deal of fast fielding saved
both pitchers from being scored on
If the boys play this kind of ball
against Little Rock they are going to
hang up victory.
The game went Is innings to a draw
neither side being able to score. Only
one man reached third base. Wilder
went to third with two men down, but
Holmes frightened and the next man
sent an easy one to Potter, who threw
him out at first.
Six double plays put an end to as
many proposed rallies and most of
them were of the fastest variety.
Magee robbed Potter of hit by fast
fielding and a one-handed stab with
man on second and in the next in
ming Potter returned the compliment,
getting Magee's line drive on his fin
gernails. These were two pretty plays
and both cut off runs saving the day
for their teams. Rawls also saved the
day for his team by pulling down
drive off Wheeler's bat that was b.
bled for three bases.
The same teams play again Satur-
day. This makes &c successive in
nings they have opposed each other
with only one run. A great game is
expected Saturday.

FAIL TO SEND Al
SAMPLE BALLOT.
TO ONE COUNTY
Democratic Executive Committee
Of State Is Being
Criticised.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 20.-Somebody
connected with the democratic party
organization in this state has been
neglecting a duty. Word reached here
yesterday from Madison county that
no official notification had been re-
ceived by the county executive COM
mitttee as to the names of state can
didates to appear on the ballot to be
voted at the second primary next
Tuesday.
It is the duty of the state eXecu-
tive committee to furnish the county
executive committees with sample bal
lots for the second primary, but no
arrangements to this end were made
at the meeting here on Aug. 10. Sec
rotary JOS. E. Norwood was not pres
ent at the meteing, and so far as
known, no sample ballots have been
sent out from the office of Chairman
McBeath.
In a majority of the counties, &C
cording to advices received here to-
day, the committees are acting on I'M
official information, and Will print on
the ballots to be used next Tuesday
the names of candidates for state Of
flee who were declared by the state
committee to be entrants for the sec
ond primary. Whether this course
will be followed in all counties is not
yet known.
Committee Not Interested.
The present state executive commit
tee has shown very decided lack of
interest in its work during the past
three years. At none of the sessions
held since the body was appointed at
the 1912 convention have a majority
of the members been present in per-
son. Even at the meeting held here
Aug. 10 majority of the members
were represented by proxies.

TINY HAMMERS /. STEAM.
6iIlions Of Flying Molecuass Give the
Gas lts Power.

Billions Of Flying Molecules Give the
Gas I'D Power.
There is f.1 old Scotch proyerb that
''Mony a mickle maks n1uckle,"
which means that many little things
put together make much. The power
Of steam is case Of this, for It can
drive great boats through the water
and It can tear up the greatest rocks.
Yet all its power is due to the coming
together of little units Of power.
When we speak of steam we mean
water vapor-water in the form of gas.
This gas is formed under pressure and
has power to expand. 1t is this expan-
sive power that does the work. After
ward the gas becomes cool and con-
densed, so that we can see it, and that
Is what we call steam. I'LL
The power of the gas is due to the
tiny molecules of water Of which it Is
made. These are flying about In all d.
rechons trying to get loose and SO
striking against the sides of whatever
hens them in. The force in one of
these molecules is very tiny, for the
amount Of stuff in the molecules Is 80
small If you had hammer smaller
than you could see you could not drive
a nail with it. But as there are bill
lions of these little hammers flying
about In the gas they are able to do all
the work that steam d0es.-From THE

bushes and are endowed with long

bushes and are endowed with long
life, whereas the black varieties at best
last only three seasons.
The Cuthberts ordinarily bring the
grower from 10 to II cents per quart
in the fresh fruit, so it is hardly prac-
ticable under usual conditions to put
this variety through the evaporator
process. However, there may be local
instances where the evaporation would
afford the only feasible outlet, but the
bulk of red raspberries is taken by can
neries and fruit, dealers at quotations
not varying far from 10 cents.
With the Columbus the course is
slightly different, though great quanti-
ties are put up every season by the
canning factories. The grower can
count on the fresh fruit price of the
purple caps as averaging from to 9
cents per quart. What this variety
lacks in market quality as compared
to the Cuthbert it makes up in prolific
production, being hardy grower.
This variety is evaporated on a large
scale and brings, i'll the dried product
from 25 to 80 cents per pound. The
shrinkage in the berries will require
from three and one-half to four quarts
for the pound, dried product.
The fruit is dried on wire racks, and
where kiln driers are very common in
handling apples the racks are placed
in the kiln Oh the floor. The fruit is
not handled after being placed on the
| racks, and no turning" of the racks is
| made. Sometimes burlap is used on
the kiln floor, with the berries spread
| out on the burlap. In districts where
| the kiln drier has not made its advent
the old wire rack system will be found
adequate.
| Another increasing outlet for the red
| and purple raspberries is through the
! favoring, preserve and bakery estab-
lishments in the large centers. Every
year men are in the field picking up all
available yields. These are given a
preservative, usually "one-tenth Of
per cent of benzoate Of Soda" and
shipped in pals, half barrels and bar
rels to the large cities, there likely to
| find 'last analysis" in jam and pie
stock.
It would seem that at 10 to IL cents q
quart paid by the canneries for Cuth-
berts there should be reasonably good
profit u the grower in disposing Of his
crop directly in this way.
After the raspberry has yielded its
fruit all old canes and all superhuous
new ones should be cut out to let in the
sun and to allow the few strong new
ones all the vitality in the root for
next seasons bearing. Five strong new
shoots are considered sufficient among
expert growers. and there is an adage
among all great fruit growers that a
dead branch saps us much life from the
parent stalk as does Il live one.
If every twig. dead or living. that is
not necessary to the production Of fruit
be dumped in heap rods away and
burned the vines will be improved and
insect pests and diseases galore will be
avoided. Then cultivate between the
rows.

Making the Little
Farm Pay
By 6. G. BOWSFiELD

Raspberries naturally belong in any
scheme Of mixed farming or gardening.
They return large acreage earnings
and can be- made to fill up odd corners
around the premises. If there is bit
Of rough land on the place it can be
made profitable by covering 1t with
raspberry bushes at the rate of 800 to
1000 per acre.
Where growers have good market
facilities raspberries ought to pay $500
an acre above the cost OF picking. A
fair estimate Of the average value Is
5000 to $500 an acre. allowing for un-
favorable market conditions. The crop
is reasonably sure and is easily handled
by amateurs.
The conditions of berry growing have
changed somewhat in recent years.

The protracted meeting at the Christian Church closed Thurs day night. Dr. J. Murray Tav- Tor of Memphis did the preaching and his sermons were deep and interesting from beginning to the close.
 While the attendance was not so large as it would have been during a less active business season, it was regular, apprecia- tive and attentive.
 Dr. Taylor is widely known in church circles as a competent conscientious worker who gives no apology for either his manner or message.
 The music was in charge of felloWtownsman l.. w. Sturdi- want. Despite an epidemic of lagrippe which has ragged in our community for the past fortnight and had crippled some of our best singers, he managed to pro- duce some very fine choruses.
