are well cared for as could be de-
sired. The catching is better than
any other team in the league has.
Faber is a winning pitcher now, if
allowed to pitch his own game. Rus
sell can win if he is given a decent
interval between starts. Reb is no
fragile creature. He can stand a lot
of work in the middle of the dia-
mond, but it is too much to expect
that he can pitch every two or three
days and warm up in the bull pen on
other days. Warming up is more ar
duous work than pitching to batters.
Baserunning is the big weakness
of the Hose players. That has been
their main failing all season, and
there seems to have been no attempt
to correct the faults. In fact, they
are growing worse. In the big
leagues it is foolish for fellows to run
wild on the supposition that the
other fellows will throw the ball
around so much that the pill will go

Wall paper from rooms Of the home
OF his great grandfather, Gen. John
Paterson, have been brought to his
home in this city by l.. S. Kilborn, who

hood home at Spenceport, N. Y.
MIR. kilhorn went to ;Spenceport to
see his sisters, Mrs. r. S. King and
Miss Maria Kilhorn, who have been
i'll. His sisters gave him the pieces OF
wall paper, which were removed from
the walls of the Paterson home in
Lenox, Mass, when 1t went out Of the
hands OF the family ten years ago.
The wall paper is interesting not
only because of its age, but by reason
Of the style. 1t Is Japanese made pa
per. and characteristic Of that coun-
try, containing Japanese figures, flow
ers, and scenes. The paper was placed
on the walls of the house when it was
built, before the revolutionary war. 1t
was during the revolution that General
Paterson, who was member OF Cen
era1 Wash.ngton'S staff, bought and
occupied the Lenox homestead. The
last owner of the house was the late
Thomas Eggleston, of Columbia Uni
son Of General Paterson.
Mr. Kilborn's visit to Spenceport
was his first time there in twenty
three years, and he left his boyhood
home over forty years ago.

On Wednesday, Feb. 81, the Bo-
hemian orchestra, presenting an IN
usual musical program. will entertain.
Febr uary is the only month in which
two numbers are given. The Cathe-
dral choir presenting a program OF
sacred music, and very favoraoly
spoken of, comes on Tuesday, March
20, and Alton Packard, cartoonist and
humorous entertainer, closes the
course on Friday, April 6.
A favorable circumstance in connec-
tion with practically every number is
that all of the dates but one are early
in the week. With the exception OF
Mr.. Packard, the closing number, ev-
cry other entertainment is scheduled
for either Monday, Tuesday or We'd
nesday nights, comparatively early in
the week.
Ticket Sale Progressing.
A total Of $50 tickets have been
either sold or pledged. Only ESQ more
will have to be sold in order to make
expenses, but the seating capacity OF
the Methodist church makes it possible
to sell 1000 tickets, and still allow
every one to have a seat. No more
tickets will be sold than there are
seats. The reservations will be made
later Those holding season tickets
will find it more profitable and con-
venient to reserve certain seats for the
entire course.
Ministers in the various churches
urged their congregations last Sun
day to support the course, as it will
be the only kind Of entertainment put
on by the churches next winter. Solici-
tors will be here later in the week, ard
the campaign will be carried on
steadily until all the tickets are sold

COW TEST EXHIBIT
( FOR STATE FAIR

/ Arrangements have been made to
conduct COW test exhibit at the Iowa
State Fair. This will prove novel
feature and one quite as practical as
novel, an innovation in the world of
fairs. 1t will be under the manage
ment of the Iowa State Dairy Associa-
ton, working in conjunction with the
officials of the Dairy Department of
the Iowa College of Agriculture.
! This demonstration will hold a world
of interest for the man engaged in
,dairying or the one who is contemplat-
ing embarking In the business.
In this exhibit group of ten cows
will be used, cows that have taken part
in a COW test experiment conducted
the past year by local association.
The entire plan of procedure will be
demonstrated; individual records will
be presented showing just what each
COW consumed during the year and
what she returned in the way of milk
and butter fat. 1t will all be present
ed in such a way that the lessons
will be impressed. To the man con-
templating the addition of dairying to
his activities this demonstration will
be well worth a trip across the state to
see. 1t will be staged in commodious
tent with ample room and accommoda-
tons for visitors.

" The question of improved highways
Is a paramount one today in Iowa 1t
has been knocking at the door of pub
lie opinion for some years, of late so
very insistently that it can no longer
be elbowed to one side. The State
Fair will offer excellent opportunities
for pursuing investigations concerning
this problem and will doubtless help
many individuals to reach a logical
conclusion. The Highway Commits
sion's exhibit will present number of
completed sections of roadway, gravel,
concrete, asphalt brick, etc. Methods
of construction will also be shown, to-
gether with all kinds of roadmaking
