One can hardly realize how many
chanRaa have taken Mace In many

One can hardly realize how many
changes have taken place In many
features of illinois farming in the
last forty years, unless one gets out
and tries life on hustling, up-to-date
farm of today. Formerly it required
an expert to do a good job OF feed
ing a threshing machine and It took
a good many years of practice to be
known as such. He had to stand up
to the feeding table, grab the bundles
Of grain with one hand as they came
from the band cutters and with the
other hand he began the work of
shaking up the bundle so the straw
would not go into the machine in
bunch. Usually hand number one
caught the butt Of the bundle just as
the cylinder OF the machine was TAX
ing hold of it and helped give the
bundle final shake and toss. Now
the kid who did the band cutting has
no job of that sort any more, and
strange to say no expert is anywhere
to be seen. In place OF the short
feed Sable Is now a long one with
an endless carrier along its full
length Loads Of grain are driven
close to the carrier, one on each
side, and two men keep busy tossing
the bundles onto the carrier which
rapidly conveys them into the cylin-
der. Just before the bundles reach
the revolving set of knives which Is
sure to cut the twtne band which
now takes the place Of the old bulky
straw band. The knives on their
long arms also stir the bundles up.
perhaps more thoroughly than they
were stirred in the old way. OF
course some form of power 1s used
! (mostly stean) other than horse. We
doubt II there is a horse power ma
chine in use In west central Illinois.
The changes in corn cultivation are
also as radical In the first place the
soil is less easily handled. Under
heavy rains IL cakes and dries out
hard almost as brick. SO the disc
harrow, the 16-foot steel smoothing
harrow and corrugated roller go over
the ground perhaps half dozen
times before the ground Is At for the
planting. The work In preparing for
the fall seeding is much the same as
for the corn. Using larger machinery

Boston Red Sox Are Near
Penna7f In American Race

there isn't a chance that Chicago will
forge to the front.
Chicago stands two games and a
half behind now. II they win every
one Of their remaining eight games,
four with Cleveland and four with
New York, the Red Sox will have to
| win eight of their eleven remaining
games to cop. This doesn't seem at
all unlikely in view OF the way the
Boston team has been playing. De
troit appears to be out OF 1t, although
they are only half game behind the
White Sox. They have seven games
remaining and II they overhaul the
White Sox and win all seven Boston
would still take the pennant by win
ming seven games.
nard Struggle Ahead.
Brooklyn has had a harder strug-
gle ahead. The Dodgers have four
teen games left on their schedule,
one today with st. Louis, six with
Chicago. beginning tomorrow, three
with Philadelphia and four with New
York.
Thirteen games remain on the
Philly program and they are pretty
stiff tussles One game remains IN
the present series with Pittsburgh.
four with Cincinnati; three with
Brooklyn. and then the finish against
Boston.
Provided Brooklyn breaks even on
the schedule. winning seven and los
ing as many, the Dodgers would have
final percentage OF .597. To win
the pennant in that event, Philadel-
phia would have to win nine games.
losing only four and the Braves
would have to win fourteen games
and lose three.
The American league teams switch
around today, the Red Sox meeting
the Indians In Cleveland; Washing
ton opening at Detroit; and the
White Sox clashing with the Yanks
at Chicago.
There will be no change in the Ma
tional league. Brooklyn will con-
tinue against the Cardinals in Brook
lyn; Cincinnati and Boston will fin
ish their series and the Phillies will
battle the Pirates In their farewell
encounter.

turies sustained in practise. and sub
gfitutes may be called on, IL the pace
gets too hot.
The Keokuk squad this year Is
showing up better than In previous
years. this early in the game. Coach
Springer has been developing some
good material for both line and back
field, and the prospects for winning
eleven are brighter than In three
reasons. A half dozen or SO veterans
from last years squad and first
class list Of substitutes win give the
team more strength than in previous
reasons.
Memphis Is coming to Keokuk con-
fdent of victory. The Memphis squad
last year trimmed Kirksville. The
local rooters, however, are banking
on the old fighting spirit Of the purple
ana Willie W lnC
ans, and every man on the team will
have the crowd on the side lines be-
hind him solid. The team deserves
the support of every member Of the
high school and of the football fans
of the city.

lineup for tomorrow's game as the
following:
Wells-Right end.
Beach-Rfght tackle.

barely hanging on in the struggle.
The Braves have been sQuelched fair
ly well and are now in third place.
Brooklyn has pulled out bit more
to the front with Philadelphia still In
the offing.
The Red Sox are much more certain
OF their claims to penant fame than
the Dodgers. They. have finished
off their two chief rivals, trimming
the White Sox two games to one. and
making a sweep OF a three game tilt
with the Tigers. II they can take a
majority OF the series from Cleveland
