FADER HURLED ONLY 67
BALLS TO BEAT SENATORS

CHICAGO, May 14-A worlds pitch
ing record is claimed for Urban Faber
of the Chicago Americans, as result
of his performance in defeating the
Washington club, 4 to. 1.
According to baseball experts, Fa-
Der pitched only sixty-seven balls
during the nine innings, five less than
the record established by Christy
Mathewson, of the New York Ma
tionals, several years ago. Frank
Saffell who operates an electric score
board in Washington, d. c., tele-
graphed that the board recorded all
strikes and balls and that his rec
ord. showing that Faber pitched fifty
strikes and seventeen balls, was cor
rect. In the record Saffell counted as
strikes any ball that was hit by the
batter.
In the third and fifth innings Faber
retired six men on six pitched balls,
each batter hitting the first ball for
an out.

Radical Slashing of
Princely Ball Salaries

San Francisco, Nov. 1O.-Radical
slashing of the prineely salaries paid
many baseball players was expected to
occupy the attention of the delegates
to the convention of the National As
sociation Of Professional Baseball
leagues, when the minor leaguers began
the real work of their sessions here to-
day.
AS business was suspended the first
day, the delegates decided to make the
meeting today closed one in order to
expedite the work. This is the first
time in the history of the association
that the public has not been admitted
to the sessions.
Discussing the salary question, Presi-
dent Sexton said:
"For several years 1 have anticipat-
ed that it would take a catastrophe such
as we have suffered to bring the owners
to their senses and make them realize
that they have thrown their money
away. Not alone in salary limits, but
with other expense accounts, such as
the cutting down of spring training, can
we reduce. "

DIR. Fisher Delivers
Address To Club

DR.. y. Il. Fisher delivered an ad-
dress last evening before the members
Of the Six O'Clock club at the Metho.
dist church to an attendance that taxed
the capacity Of the church parlors.
The address was on "Health and
Sanitation" in which the doctor sug-
gested that now is the time to swat the
fly, and also TO take note as to whether
the back yard would not be improved
from health standpoint by u little
cleaning.
Health would not be endangered by
drinking deeply of Salem water, as it
had been analyzed and found TO con
tain no microbes or anything else a
healthy man could object to. In fact,
the water is so pure that the doctor
could see no reason why any one should
want to 70 elsewhere for n drink.
Another means of improving the san
itary conditions Of town Is by oiling
the streets, as n means Of keeping down
the dust and dirt. Statistics show, said
the doctor, that the death rate is less
in localities where oil is used.
As u final advice, he urged the men
to be careful about their diet. The
man who is light eater has better
chance for average good health than
the heavy eater, and II is the man who
eats too much that is subject to heart
failure.

FISH SCALES FOUND
TO Be INACCURATE
BY DEPUTY SEALER
Individual Peddlers Have
Their Family" Scales Con-
6scated by Buchtel'

The scales on the wagons of three in
dividual fish peddlers were seized vest
terday by the state sealer of weights
and measures on account of the mac.
curacies of the "family" scales such
as was in use. Fred G. Buehtel, deputy
state sealer, said today that no charges
were made that the fish peddlers de-
liberately intended to short weight
their customers but that it was not pos
sible to deliver accurate weights with
the scales in use. If shortages are re-
ported in the future the matter will be
taken up with the district attorney.
Investigation has shown that the regu-
lar fish dealers in the city of Salem
are complying with the law in all re-
spects and are using standard scales.
Several gasoline pumps were examin-
/ ed and all but one or two were found
to be accurate and these were correct
ed to comply with the law. Mr.. Buch-
tel advises the purchase of four foot
wood to be sawed into stove lengths
after it is delivered in preference to
the wood which is delivered already
sawed. He states that in many in.
stances it has been found that the
shrinkage due to saving into stove
lengths has been greater than it should
be where it was delivered by the load
by the dealer.
The office of weights and measures
has of late received a number of com.
plants from in and around Salem, as
regards the measurement of wood which
has been sawed before delivery, and in
order that the public may be informed
as to what they are entitled to, the fol
| lowing statement was issued:
Primarily wood must be sold by the
cord or the fractional part of a cord
and not by the load, the basis of meas
urement being the wood in the four foot
length, one cord constituting l2S cubic
feet (4x4xS).
From now on and during the winter
months, q very considerable amount
of the wood sold will be in the stove
lengths of either l2 or 16 inches and il
should be taken into consideration by
purchasers that where cord of wood is
ordered with the request that it be
sawed, that the pile in the "short
lengths" will contain less number Of
cubic feet than originally, due to the
fact that the shorter wood packs more
closely together. The amount of wood
less the sawdust, is the same, but the
cubical contents measures less, this
shrinkage varying according to the de
gree of the straightness of the wood il
the four foot lengths.
After many tests conducted by fue
dealers, sealers, and this office, shrink
ages have been determined as follows
one cord of the average four foot fl
wood, and such as is being commonly
sold today will measure 116 cubic fee
when sawed and replied, the shrinkag,
being 10 cubic feet to the cord. Oak
ash, and similar crooked wood will
