The Tiger A. c., of Mount Holly, went
to Smithville, Saturday, and defeated
the team at that place by the score of IA
to 4.
Pemberton will be here next Saturday
afternoon and will put a strong combina-
ton in the field. 1t will be a game
worth seeing.
Philo is said to want game with
Mount Holly, but we do not have time
to play practice games. We want to
contest with something worth while.
The Palmyra team went to Woodbury.,
Saturday, with the idea of winning a
game, but they miscalculated as the
Woodbury. team won by the score of 6
to 4.
You may find ball teams on almost
any vacant lot in Burlington. 1t is
doubtful if there is any town in the
county that turns out as many players
as that city does. st. Paul's team beat
Rice A. c., of Bordentown, by the score
of to 3.
There has been much inquiry as to the
whereabouts of Chance, who pitched for
Mount Holly last season and who was
signed by the Athletics. He has been
farmed out to the Frederick, Maryland,
team, and played his first game Friday,
when the opposing club won and touched
Chance up in lively fashion.
Lumberton's base ball ground carries
the name Of limbo Park. The Rev. Mr..
Zimmerman and manager Bowen are
favOrites with the base ball fans of the
town. Some of them wanted one name
and some the other, so there was a COM
promise and portion of the two names
were worked in.
Florence was once more victor on
Saturday. Sweeney pitched but Roeb-
ling touched him for 10 hits. Kohler, of
Roebling, pitched star game and al
lowed the other side but eight hits.
-Four errors by his team tell the story of
defeat. In the ninth inning with the
bases filed Kohler struck the side out.
But he could not do it all and Florence
won by the score of 6 to A.,
Philo club, of Philadelphia, went to
Lumberton, Saturday, with the idea
that number of city teams has, that
country teams are lot of easy marks.
When they reached the grounds the
visitors announced that they did not
want to do too much to the home team
but only wanted little practice as they
expected to play strong team in At
lantic City on Sunday. The ''practic-
ing" was all on the side of Lumberton,
who piled up IL runs and then played an
easy game, while the visitors tried hard
to get more than two runs. After the
game the manager of the Philos was
heard to express himself very forcibly
on the manner in which his team
.practiced, T" and when he left the scene
of his Waterloo there was some doubt
whether the strong team at the seashore
would be met. But Philo went to At
lantic City and also went to defeat, the
home team beating the visitors by the
score of 6 to l.

The meeting of the Parent-Teacher
Association to elect officers for the en-
suing year was held in the high school
auditorium Thursday evening, with a
fair-sized audience, but not nearly as
many as should show their interest in
what is very important organization
and one which is designed to do much
good for all-parents, teachers and pupils
connected with the schools of the
town. Mrs. j. l.. Surtees, former presi-
dent, having removed from the town,
the meeting was presided over by Mrs.
Edward B. Jones.
Rev. Luther Moore Bicknell, pastor of
the Presbyterian church, read portion
of scripture and offered prayer. Miss
Violet Lippincott rendered very pleas
ing piano solo, which was followed by a
recitation by Otto Palmer, which showed
much ability on the part of the young
speaker. Kenneth Perinchief sang a
solo, after which Professor Sullivan
gave report for the committee on cook
ing.
This concluded the entertainment por-
! tiCn of the programme and the election
of officers took place, the following

The treasurer's report showed that
there are 112 members. This is small
list when the number of parents who
should be interested is taken into ac-
count. 1t must not be supposed that
this is an exclusive affair open to a few,
but it is meant for the entire town. The
intent OF the plan is to give parents 9
chance to become acquainted with the
teachers and to get in touch with many

through the new tariff commission,
the trade commission, the federal re-
serve act, the shipping bill and similar
measures he expected business men in

the nation.
''The purpose of legislation in the
immediate future in this country" Mr..

move all ingenious constructions ard

ADJUST THE HARNESS RIGHT
Collar BoiIs Often Caused by Improper
Fastening of the Trace Chain
on the Hame.

Collar boils are often caused by inn
proper adjustment of the fastenings OF
the trace chain on the hame. Every
hame should have several places for
adjustment and the regulation should
be made to conform to the slope of the
shoulders of the individual horse
Horses with straight shoulders should
have traces about midway of the hame,i
while horses with sloping shoulders
should have the adjustment about two
fifths of the way up from the bottom.
Adjustment of the backband will in,
a measure correct any weakness in the
formation of the shoulder. The back
band can be made not only to carry Al
part of the weight, thereby adjusting
the dept of the pillow, but it can be-
made to adjust the draft to fit the
horses shoulder. The adjustment can
be made either by shortening the back
band or moving it farther back on the
horse. The length of the trace shouldl
be such as to prevent the horses legs
knocking against the singletree and
still have no surplus length.

LANDS SUITABLE FOR SHEEP
Animals DO Best Where Grasses Ara
Produced Naturally or Introduced
by Cultivation.

Sheep do best on high, dry land
that is, on hard-soiled land, where the
grasses adapted to sheep are produced
naturally, or are easily introduced by
cultivation. The short grasses, or
such as usually are termed pasture
grasses, are essential to the well-be-
ing Of the sheep. Cattle and horses
will thrive and do well on hay grasses,
on wet land grasses, tall grasses, but
with the sheep it is different; they
depend on the short-growth, dry-soil-
pasture grasses. It is important that
they be not confined to wet, soft, bog
gy pastures. The sheep inclines to
foot scald, sore feet and finally foot
rot where the hoof is constantly under
the influence of moisture in the soil.

London, Sept 26.-By one Of the
most brilliant coups in the present
war, Field Marshal Won Mackensen

PUTS TRUST IN U. S.
AUSTRIAN COUNT EXPRESSES
FAITH IN AMERICA.
Rregrets Failure of Vienna to Appoint
Successor to Discharged Ambas-
sador to Washington.

London, Sept. 25.-Budapest papers
received in London contain the fol-
lowing report of a statement made by
Count Albert Apponyi in the Hunga-
rian parliament in the course Of a
speech on the foreign policy of the
government regarding the absence Of
the Austro-Hungarian ambassador in
Washington:
1T is one of the failures of the for
eign minister that he did not appoint
an ambassador in place of the dis
charged Austro-Hungarian ambassa-
dor at Washington. We are all liv-
ing in hope that when at last peace
comes and when the time arrives for
a neutral power to offer her services
it will be the great republic across the
Atlantic as most fit for work of
such magnitude.
1--WE all hope the United States adj
ministration will take the affair in
hand sooner or later when they deem
it proper to do SO, and we find our
selves not even represented diplomat
ictlly in proper manner.
II know that certain steps or hints
were offered on the part of the
United States to the effect that the
position of ambassador should be
filed by the monarchy. In spite Of
this we have not moved, although the
interests of the monarchy demand
that we should have a reliable and
able representative there"
In Hungarian political circles it is
rumored that should Count Apponyi
himself be asked to accept the mis-
sion as ambassador to Washington
he would not refuse to do so.
