DAWSON TAKES FIRST GAME
FROM HER OLD TIME RIVALS
"Baby" Holds Montezuma Safe While Holmes Is hit On-
roercfv In Last Three Innings. Cooke Scores First

The baseball lid for the season OF
1916 was formally raised in Dawson
Monday afternoon with the locals
and Montezuma contending for the
first game. Enthusiasm was at fever
heat and every business house in the
CITY closed it's doors in honor of the
occasion. Many fans from nearby
villages and cities, remembering the
class of ball played by the two teams
in former days, focked into the city,
and when his honor, Mr.. Thornton,
beloved out "play ball' every seat
in the rejuvenated Baldwin Park was
filled. The Brentwood Woodmen Band
furnished the music and added pep to
the already nervous and high-strung
players and fans.
The visiting team led by Coach
Jake cellars of Mercer University
were bedecked in new uniforms of
white and red, and when they appear
ed on the field for their practice they
were given a glad hand. They put up
such an excellent practice that they
made the local followers little fear
full of the results. When the Daw-
sonites led by Rucker CHM of the
University of Georgia appeared on
the field in their new white and blue
uniforms they were greeted by ire
mendous and laundering applause.
Although seemingly a little nervous
they put up a stiff practice.
"Baby" Wilder, formerly of the
University of Georgia, was opposed
by Holmes, an all-Southern pitcher
from the University of Mississippi,
while Harper of G. M. C. and Glenn
ents of Mercer were doing the re-
ceiving. Mr.. Thornton of Vienna
was handling the indicator.
Both teams got men on bases dur
ing the first five innings, but were
unable to get the punch necessary to
put them across the home plate. In
the sixth inning Holmes, second up,
lined a two-bagger past first. Daw-
son followed with a double to right
center and Holmes crossed the plate
for the first run of the season. The
Baby frightened up and made the next
two men hit easy outs.
OIeNS LOCKE, Lue lOCdl DOys SIecG-
ed the first ball pitched by Holmes in
the sixth and lined out a screaming
single to left field. He was sacri-
feed to second by Wilder, and went
to third on the managers infield out.
Mutt Rhodes of G. M. C. beat out an
infeld hit and Cooke crossed the rub
Der for the tieing run. For his ser
vices he received tremendous glad
hand and one of Uncle Sans SIS
notes. Then Rhodes got busy and
stole second. When Clements bad
throw got by shortstop Rhodes raced
to third. Mr. Clements went to Sleep
and when the pitcher tried to ease
one by Ike Thrasher it went by the
catcher also, and Rhodes came home,
the score. In the seventh in
ming Lorien Thrasher, first up, hit

NO BOIL WEEVIL
IN TERRELL COUNTY
JUDGE STATHAM SAYS COTTON
AND OTHER CROPS IN THIS
SECTION NEVER BETTER.

Judge M. G. Statham has returned
home from a trip throughout Terrell
and surrounding counties, and re-
ports that he carefully inspected the
crops while on his trip, and that he
saw no evidences of the presence of
the boil weevil, and he does not be-
ieve that cotton will be molested by
this pest this season.
He says that he never saw the cot
ton and corn crops in better condi-
ton than they are this season in this
section of the state, and that he ex-
poets to see a bountiful harvest of
these crops, as we'll as peas, potatoes,
hay and other feed crops.
With cotton now selling at IL
cents and above, and big harvest in
sight, this section of the state will
again be in a prosperous condition
this fall.

DUST FROM THE DIAMOND.
By Ted.

One thousand loyal fans headed by
brass band greeted the Dawson ball
team on their first appearance at
Baldwin park. We have So more
games to play. We are bound to lose
once in a while. Let US all attend
the games, encourage the boys, show
them the Dawson Spirit and we are
bound to bring the state amateur
championship to Dawson again this
summer.
We want to congratulate the dl-
rectors of the baseball association on
their good luck and sound judgment
in securing Mr.. Rucker CHM as man
ager of the locals. He will make an
excellent leader, for with his ability
to play ball and judge ball players
he is also a thorough gentleman. With
him is the fastest, cleanest and most
promising bunch of youngsters that
it has been our pleasure to see since
Buck was a little calf.
Coach Cellars of Mercer University
is manager of the MonteZuma team.
He has lost none of the old grit and
pep that made his name a by-word in
his college days. He has corraled a
husky bunch of ball players, most of
them being representative of the va
rious Southern universities.
Tiny Henderson of Georgia is man
ager at Cordele and Skipper Cochran
of Mercer is manager at Fitzgerald.
Two old Georgia men and two old
Mercer men compose the leaders OF
the Big Four organization. Look out,
boys, the fur is sure to fly before the
season is over.

locals lit on to Holmes and when the
smoke had cleared away three hits
and three runs had been recorded
against him. In the ninth inning
Coach Cellars went in to hit for
Sans. He had the necessary punch
and lined one of the Baby's benders
to left for two bags. He scored when
Rhodes threw wild to first. The next
two batters were easy infeld outs.
The fielding feature of the game
was the running one-hand catch by
Holloway of Loke Thrasher's liner to
right in the sixth. He probably saw
ed Holmes of a home run.
Harper was as steady behind the
bat as an eight-day clock, and his
pegging was perfect. He stopped
two at second and one at third. Burr,
formerly of Tech, made his first ap-
pearance on the local grounds, and
he got everything in sight. Besides,
he got two hits out of four trips to

CRUDE OIL DESTROYS VERMIN
oilers Are Cheapest and Most Efficient
Means Of Kidding Hogs Of
. Harmful Lice.

Hog oilers are the cheapest and
most efficient means Of Kidding the
hog Of lice, says the veterinary de-
partment of the Nebraska College Of
Agriculture.
One application Of crude oil kills
both lice and nits. The most con-
venient method of applying the oil is
by means Of hog oiler, of which there
are several good types. They are al
ways ready and require little atten-
tion. The best oiler allows the pig
to rub the oil on any part of the body.
The oiler can also be applied with
sprinkler, spray pump, broom, or
brush. II there is any indication .of
skin disease, the parts may be
scrubbed with a broom or brush so as
TO get the oil well into the skin. When
crude oil is used, the appearance Of
skin and hair is greatly improved.

In an experiment conducted by the
Canada experiment farms TO determine
the number OF eggs that would be fer
tilized eggs appeared to be the maxi
mum. In a fertility test following IL
hours mating IL was apparent that
this method was more conducive to re-
suits than the one mating only proved
TO be. In trials to determine the in
crease OF pen fertility after the intro
duction of the male, maximum fertll-
lty, 100 per cent, was reached in pull
let pen six days after mating, and oc-
Cured three times In n period OF 81
days. The same fertility was reached
In a pen Of old hens on the eleventh
day after introducing the male. but the
fertility increased more rapidly and
continued a great deal stronger in the
pullet pen than In the pen of old hens.
One male was also kept with "A White
Leghorn hens. Though the percentage
Of fertility was highest when only 58.S
per cent of the hens were laying, the
total hatch was only 1873 per cent.
When 1914 per cent of the pen were
laying, the total hatch was 4S.1 per
cent and the fertility S7.7 per cent. In
other tests without mating again fer
tility could not be traced In eggs laid
after hens had been broody for any

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE

When boiling leg Of mutton inclose
It in n muslin bag. Cooked in this way
1t will keep n much better shape.
To make red tiles a bright color, rub
with lemon dipped in fine salt. Leave
for a few minutes, then wash with
soap and water.
A soiled photograph mount may be
cleansed by rubbing with dry bread
crumbs; the photograph should be
wiped with clean cold water.
For removing tea and coffee marks
from linen glycerine is excellent. Pour
1t over the stains, rub 1t well In, and
wash In the usual way.
Indiarubber gloves are better than
leather ones to wear when doing
housework they are more flexible, and
In addition are much easier to keep
clean.
Where oil lamps are used a pailful
of dry sand should always be kept
handy. Nothing is so effective for ex-
tinguishing burning oil in case Of acci-
dent.
When making suet dumplings, wheth.
er sweet or savory, always prick them
well before putting them In the pan.
II this is done they will not stick to
the bottom.

INCREASE FLOCK OF LAYERS
keepIng-Poor Hens Are Llsbll-
lty-keep an Account.

The average farmer might find II
desirable to increase the size Of the
flock OF hens. While most farmers
have little time TO devote to poultry
raising yet their families may attend
TO the fowls and see that they are
well cared for and protected.
The usual "advlce" to poultry rails
ers to begin with few hens is sound.
But on most farms the women and
girls haye had the responsibility OF
the flock for years and most of them
could well afford to increase the num-
Der of laying hens.
Range Is very important for poul-
try. But range alone is not enough.
The fowls must have feed and shelter
when they need them.
When one Is about TO increase the
number of hens IL is well to see that
those kept are worth keeping. Poor
hens are not an asset; they are gem
orally liability.
II may not be possible TO tell when
hens are worth keeping and when they
should be sold. In fact this will be
impossible unless records are kept.
But no chances should be taken on
very old hens or hens that have never
shown their worth as layers. II will
be safer TO keep pullets.

results were cooled as follows: First

second week, ten minutes In the after

the afternoon. Cooling one tray for
several hours proved detrimental.
In an experiment to determine the
profit on ducks Matched In incubators,
reared in brooders, and sold on the

weeks old, 3.1S pounds of feed per

Value Of Feeds.
The value for poultry feeding Of
screenings, scalpings (chiefly broken
and shrunken wheat and the larger
weed seeds), wild buckwheat, "black
seeds" Qamb's quarter, wild mustard,
and tumbling mustard), and each Of
these three separately, was tested. The
presence of the black weed seeds in
the ration made 1t not only unpalata-
BILE, but Improbable as well. Wild
buckwheat, however, made very de-
sirable feed. The mustards and lambs
quarter proved unpalatable and un-
profitable. Some birds died, but in no
case did death result from 'poison, !"
but rather from malnutrition. In the
birds that suffered most severely, as
In the case of the mustards, upon re-
turn to normal ration the rebound
was very rapid. The mustards rather
than being poisonous seemed to have a
stimulating effect on the digestive or.

ROOTS FOR STOCK IN WINTER


Most stockmen realize the worth Of
roots in the winter ration for the cat
tie, but few recognize the fact that
the mangels and turnips may be fed
In such a way that much of their
value is lost, says a writer In an ex-
change. Roots act as appetizers and
bowel regulators rather than as actual
milk producers hence they should be
fed with care. They are largely COM
posed of water, and therefore they use
up the heat of the body. For this rea-
son, In extreme cold weather we cut
down the usual quantity of roots fed,
and on severely cold days we even
skip the roots altogether, feeding some
thing else having less water content.
Roots should not be taken from
the storage pits or cellars, where the
temperature Is not far from the
freezing point, and fed Immediately. A
better way is TO bring them into a
heated room for II to "a hours, after
which they may be cut and given to
the live stock. We like to bring the
roots into warm room In the morn
ing, leaving them until the next morn
ing, when they are cut and fed. Cows
that are giving milk should eat the
roots Just after being MIXED In the
morning.

A farmer, whose cattle have always

Of the barn, well lighted and venti-

stable, building the extension with a
southern exposure, into which the d.
rect rays OF the sun were permitted to
enter with no obstruction.
He discovered by accident, what he
subsequently demonstrated by repeat
ed experience, that the same creature
In the sunlight took on flesh more
readily, ate less and produced more
than when kept In the stable where
the direct sunlight never entered.
More than this, he proved conclu.
sively that creatures suffering with va.
