up the reins before the 1914
season ended. At that time
he announced his retirement
from baseball, but he has
been coaxed back again.

who may be transferred. Morley

New York Yankees having express

is marking time now until every
thing has been settled by the Ma

Support of Vines.

In furnishing support for vines that
Chamber over the walls of the house,
do not use strips of cloth, as so many
do. The cloth is good for a season
only. After the vines have become
large and heavy their weight will be
sufficient to tear the cloth loose from
the tacks that held 1t in place, espe-
cially after heavy rain or in strong
winds, and down will come the plant
1t will be found impossible to put it
back in place in anything like sat
isfactory manner. For supporting
large, stiff vines make use of screw
hooks, which are easily inserted in
wooden walls. Turn the hooks in I'M
til there is just enough room between
their points and the wall to admit OF
slipping the vine in.
Some vines are not adapted to this
treatment. Those can be supported
by using strips of leather instead OF
cloth. The leather should be soaked
in oil fer "a hours before using, to
make it pliable and water-resisting.
Do not use small tacks, as these do
not have sufficient hold on the wood
to make them dependable Use nails
at least all inch long, with good-sized
heads

MAJOR SOURCES OF INCOME
Most Successful Farms Have Well
Balanced and Diversified busi-
ness-keeps Prices UP.

In most cases where studies ON the
profits in farming have been made
particularly in our Oldest agricultural
districts. such studies indicate that
the most successful farms are those
which have from two to four major
sources of income |. e., they have
well-balanced and diversified business
In certain instances it may pay better
TO have only one enterprise, but usu-
ally when one crop pays much better
than all others the production OF 1t
increases rapidly and soon the price
falls to the point where other crops or
products are equally as profitable.
Diversified farming is often confused
with farming where there is a little
of everything and not much of any
thing Either extreme lessons the
chances of success. When the price
of certain crops is very low then live
stock usually becomes desirable. How
ever, if the returns per animal are
poor. cash crops even at low price
are essential A well-balanced buSi-
ness insures against losses and pro-
vides a much better utilization Of the
labor and equipment.
