Fandom Relatives ATE Grow
ing Weaker and Dieing as
Major Leagues Go to Post
MANY LINE-UPS CHANGED

With everybody agreeing that the sea-
son at hand is bound to be the greatest
ever from a playing standpoint, as well
as the most profitable TO the owners, six
teen major league clubs VIII square away
In their fight for the flags In the Ma
Ntional and American Leagues tomorrow.
Many new names will be seen In the
line-ups, and not a few ''come-backs"
from the land OF the independents. The
stars of the minor leagues have been
Sifted in the stern meshes OF the try
outs, and the veterans have gone safely
through an equally severe inventory as
to their usefulness.
The baseball magnates are predicting
q record breaking year in baseball. With
the Federal League out of the way, the
stars of baseball have been more closely
organized into faster baseball clubs, and
the stigma of rows between baseball
owners has been removed from the game.
The salary checks may be triie lower
for some of the stars, but the game is
still baseball; II has its rewards and
honors, and its heroes of the diamond
stand out more strongly than ever as
IDOLS OF the American sportsmen.
On the eve of battle the two Boston
clubs are generally regarded as the best
running stars for the buntings. What
the Red Sox did TO their chances when
Lsnnin let the peerless Speaker go to
Cleveland is a matter OF conjecture. The
first thing to happen on the books was a
change in the Boston odds from TO )
against finishing in front to to against
All OF which will help the race in the
American, as the Indian outfit at Cleve-
land was weak and considered in the
ruck. Now, with Speaker hammering In
a few runs every now and then, and cut
ting on opposition at the plate, Cleve-
land will be up. The balance is likely to
give the flag TO the club that wins ninety
games. the dopesters figure. The White
Sox and Detroit are also looked upon
with favor in the Johnsonisn organiza-
ton.
In the National the Braves figure
thusIy:
The club stacks up as well on players
as any other in the bunch. and then
they have Stallings and Evers. When
the going gets fast that pair can be fig
ured on to keep up the massed frontal
attack day after day, no matter what
the pace.
Advance sales OF seats in New York
make good the forecasts OF the leaders
for a prosperous season. When Walter
johnson. the main battery of the Wash
ington club, unlimbers on the Yanks this
afternoon one OF the biggest frst-day
crowds of year Is expected to be on hand
All the Dodgers have to do to get a
Tying start is thrash the Braves. II is
going to give them a splendid chance to
show that million-dollar (more or less)
Improvement.

snow experts had prepared for their re-
ception. More than 500 CANNES will be on

for winners.
At one end of the big hall was a pile
of crates. Somewhere behind It all was
a half ton Of dog biscuit and other
dainties for the dogs. Special baths had
been rugged up for the handlers to put
the finishing touches on the little fellows
that came from afar. But what became
of some of the dogs? One could hardly
believe all that sound came from that pile
Of crates and you would have discovered
ii II you had waited until one of the
handlers opened the door and took out
one of the prizes of the canine world.

Of Lansdowne. Pa, when he let the
little fellows run about for exercise.
You see we have Just come from st

man. DIR. D. z. Bucking and DIR. c. Z.
Weeks will be on hand bright and early
Thursday to give each and every dog
a medical examination before It enters the
show. No dog will be accepted with any

TO SAVE THE ORANGE CROP.

There j. a heavy crop of satsuma

there - a prospect Of a heavy crop Of
grape fruit IN the Magic Valley next fall.
The Valley growers are planning an or
ganization for the purpose Of marketing
their product to the best advantage. The
Galveston News l. urging the satsuma
growers TO take similar measures 10 save
their crop the coming season. They should
heed the advice, and lose no time in or
ganlzing a market association 20 that they
may be able to dispose Of their oranges Ia
the best advantage.
Nothing is more hurtful to 4 country.
nothing more utterly discouraging. than to

stuff and then lose II because of the mar
ket's "going to pieces Generally such n
disaster could be avcrted by taking steps
to prevent a congestion OF the crop in the
markets.
As a rule. when the market for fruit or
truck develops such an unfavorahle con
dition, IL Is due to the fact that the ship
ments are chiefly sent to a few Of the
larger center, which thus become over
stocked, and send the prices down. A
panic ensues. Being perishablc. the pro

cause the shipper and commission men

At the same time, it often happens. the
greater part Of The country viii be ~parScly
supplied with the same product. II the
shipments had been distributed more
evenly. covering j wider territory. instead
of being all dumped in one or two cities.
the prices would have been maintained and
fair profits made by al concerned.
The efforts TO organize the satSuma
orange growers, As well as that looking
10 the organization Of the Marie Valley
grape fruit growers, should be- pushed To
a successful Issue 50 that such disasters
a. those described may be avoided. and
these highly important and valuable indus
tries be placed upon a substantial basis.
