BALL PLAYERS NOT EXEMPT
They Would Not Be Drafted Was
Without Authority.

Denial from Washington of the re-
port that the members of the National
and American leagues were to be ex-
empt from the draft until next fall has
caused lot of anxiety in the ranks of
the players. The men of the Ameri-
can league had been assured by Ban
Johnson, their president, that they
would not have to fear draft until fall,
but that assurance was given without
authority. The war department has
given no one authority to announce
any such policy and the players will
be subject to the same regulations as
other men of fighting age.
1t would mean many changes in the
big league races if some of the star
men are grabbed. The drafting of
Heine Zimmerman would mean that
the chances Of the New York "Giants"
making runaway race of the Nation
al league pennant would go a-glimmer-
ing. The drafting of Eddie Collins
from the Chicago Americans, the TAX
ing Of Iris Speaker from Cleveland, or
Ty Cobb from Detroit, would change
the whole race in the American leauge.

WATCH FIELDER JONES
Manager of st. Louis Browns
Satisfied With Outlook.
Has Shifted His Men Around and Only
Weak Spot Appears to Be Third
Base--WiII Be Formidable
Team in Pennant Race.

When 10000 fans turn out to st.
Louis ball park on a Sunday in the
| spring it's sign that the sport is pop
ulaS there. That's the number that
| tufhed out at Sportsman's park
| and the crowd was rewarded by
double victory over the White Sox-
one of the battles being no-hit affair.
Fielder Jones is getting under way
again. Predictions were made before
the season opened that Fielder had
profited by the 1916 campaign, and had
noted how the combined players from
American and Federal leagues shaped
up.
This has evidently been coming true.
Jones has shifted his men around and
now is fairly satisfied with the results.
The only spot that can be called at all
weak is third base, where the veteran
Jimmy Austin holds forth. st. Louis
fans are impatient because Austin is
kept Thereon at least a good per-
centage of them are-but Austin is a
crack fielder, and hits in streaks. He
is the best they have for the job at
present.
Jones, according to st. Louis scribes,
would rather beat the Sox than any of
his other rivals. He drives his men to
do their best against his old team, and
has been sensationally successful of
late.
Fielder Jones is unquestionably a
great manager, one of the best in the
history of the game. He always gives
the best he has to his men and superb
ors. He plays every game to win, at
no time does he give up. In this re-
spect he is an exact counterpart of
Hughie Jennings, the great leader of
the Detroit Tigers.
It's too early to do much predicting,
but one can be fairly safe in stating
that the st. Louis Browns will be a
formidable team in the race this sea-
son, and cannot be too closely watched.
Jones won a pennant with less effec-
tive team II years ago, and has his
eyes set on the same direction in 1917.

Japan Would Aid in Shipbuilding.

Toxic, June IL. - Japan stands
ready to build additional ships for the
Allies, but is badly in need of mate
rial of construction. That is the situ-
alton in this country as outlined by
Baron Kenjiro Den, minister of COM
munications. The minister said:
Some shipyards in Japan are forced
to suspend work on account of the
lack of material. Should the United
States supply the materials, Japan
would be able to cooperate with the
Allies in response to their proposal in
rehabilitating the havoc wrought by
the Germans.

SURE SIGN OF FLAG WINNER
First Team to Make Triple Play of
Season Bound to Win Pennant,
According to Players.

According to st. Louis writer who
has interviewed ball players on the
subject, the team that makes the first
triple play of the season is bound to
win the pennant. The Browns made
the first one in the game against Cleve-
land on April 80, therefore, say the
superstitious ones on Fielder Jones'

PREVENT MOLT OF PULLETS
Avoid Hatching Out of Season and
Provide Free Range-AIIow the
Fowls to Mature Normally.

(By A. Slows. Connecticut Experiment
StatiOn.)
Every fall we hear an increasing
number Of reports Of pullet egg pro-
duction being cut down by the fall
mOlt. 1t Is perhaps to be expected
when we consider that better methods
Of breeding early Matching and heavy
feeding for which nearly every one Is
working all tend toward early matur-
ity and production. 1t Is natural for
very early laying pullets to stop pro-
ducing and go through a partial molt
before cold weather Aside from the
natural tendency. the moIt may be
fastened ky a sudden change of feed,
care or environment.
The fall m9lt may often be avoided
by following q few simple rules.
Avoid hatchlEg out Of season, March,
April and May are best, the exact
time depending o9 the breed.
Provide free range during the en-
tire season.
Avoid rations containing an excess
Of protein. Sour milk is better than
beef scraps.
Do not attempt to hold pullets back,
let them mature normally.
Have the pullets In their winter
quarters before production starts.
Avoid any sudden change in feed,
care or management after production
begins.
Middletown transcript., 1917-10-06

(By J. E. DOUGHERTY, University Of
California;
Egg production depends on four
things, i. e., breeding, housing, feeding,
and intelligent management. The very
best rations will not give good results
unless the fowls are comfortably
housed, are bred for egg production.
and are carefully handled generally.
Good feeding is but part of the prob
lem.
The layers at the University Farm
are fed as follows:
Grain.
Fifteen pounds whole wheat, ten
pounds barley, whole or rolled; three
pounds corn, whole Egyptian or crack
ed yellow.
Mash.
Five pounds bran five pounds shorts
or brown middlings, five pounds brown
barley or oats, two pounds soy bean or
linseed oil meal, three pounds meat
scrap, one-half pound fine charcoal.
one-tenth pound salt.
In addition green feed such as al
falfa, rape, kale, lawn clippings, cattle
beets is plentifully supplied. Grit ard
oyster shell is kept before the fowls
at all times in self-feeding hoppers. :
Mixed Grain.
The mixed grain Is fed In deep
litter, lightly in the morning and all
the hens will consume at night. The
dry mash should be kept In hopper
before such fowls as Leghorns at all
times. For older hens of the Plymouth
Rock and other heavy breeds the hop
per may have to be kept closed till 1
p. m. each day, as these fowls have
tendency to eat too much mash, and as
result become over fat. Approx
mately one pint of grain to 10 hens
Is fed in the morning and one and one
half pints to 10 hens at night.
Meat Substitute.
If skim milk or buttermilk be avail
able it may be kept before the fowls
In drinking fountains as substitute for
meatscrap, and the meatscrap omitted
from the ration. Fresh green bone
may also be used in place of meat

The Wit of Mr.. Choate.

Joseph n. Coate, the late ex ambas-
sador to England, had a decidedly
nasal voice, but the New Republic says
it was a beautiful voice, resonant as
some big gong, and his rather unkind
wit was as genuine as his courage.
Every now and then his wit was
touched with beauty, as when he said,
Of the freshmen dormitories at Harv-
ard, that all they needed to make
them rivals Of the Oxford college
building was ivy and time. Mr.. Choate
took playful satisfaction in suddenly
chilling auditors whom he had care
fully warmed. Speaking once at
boys school, three Of whose graduates
had acted as his secretaries when he
was ambassador, he delighted his au-
dience by his praise Of the secretaries.
After enjoying the pleasure Of mas
ters and boys, Mr.. Choate wound up
by saying something like this: "Per-
haps ought to add that all 1 ask Of
a secretary Is that he shall keep out Of
my way and shave every day."

SERUM FOR RAT-BITE fever
Japanese Physicians Declare Cure Is
Obtained From Veins of Persons
Who Have Recovered.

A group of eminent Japanese doc
tors has been busy studying rat-bite
fever ever since Futaki, Ishiwara and
their associates reported two years ago
the discovery of the micrObe that
causes it. This is spirochete, So
called because its form Is spiral or
zig-zag. Several types Of this splro
chete were found in men who had been
bitten by rats, and in guinea pigs that
had been experimentaly inOculated.
These were identified by Futaki as In
all probability identical.
Doctors Renjiro, Kaneko and Kikuzo
Olluda Of the Imperial University In
Kyushu, Fukuoka, Japan. contribute
to the Journal Of Experimental Medi-
cine a confirmation of Futaki's brlief;
Doctor RyOkichi Inada contributes
description of the disease; Doctors Yu-
TAXA lido. ROkuto Holt, Hiroshl Ito and
Hidetsune Wani describe experiments
carrier of the Spirocheta icterohaemor-
rhagica, as the micrObe Of the disease
Is called; and Doctors Yutaka lido, Hi
roshi Ito, Hidetsune Wani and KikuZo
Okuda discuss the possibility of pro-
ducing immunity.
The latter go into details of their
experiments and come to the conclu
sion that the "serum Of persons who
have recovered from rat-bite fever con-
tains an immune body which destroys
the spirochetes of that disease"
The Importance of these articles lies
in the final proof that this spirochete
is the cause Of the fever that rats are
the carriers, and that the disease can
be cured.
