Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat-Interest in the wheat mar
ket has centered almost exclusively
in the meeting of the committee ap-
pointed by the administration to fix
what is designated as "afir price"
for the seasons crop. The outcome
was about what might have been ex-
pected from a conference made up of
representatives and consumers, result
ing in a final deadlock, and the refer
ring of the question to the president
for a final decision. Growers are re-
ported to have been united in demands
for stabilizing quotations at around
$3.50 for No. Northern, while other
members baked at going above the
81 mark. There Is no movement in
buying at the present time and values
are purely nominal. Trading in fu-
lures has been discontinued upon
boards of trade, and all existing con-
tracts liQuidated, hence there Is no
existing basis for determining price
conditions. The indicated attitude of
the government in establishing con.
troll over all wheat sales, including
purchase for milling requirements, as
we'll as for export, places the market
in a statu quo until definite plans are
| determined upon.
Flour-There Is no trading in flour
beyond purchases to cover immediate
requirements. Most Of the mills are
out Of the market, awaiting the de
termination of new crop conditions
under the system Of control proposed
by the government. Manufacturers are
in receipt of notification that it will
be necessary to take out licenses fol
operation, and the accompanying com
munication from the food director in
dictates that the new department will
not only undertake the purchase O.
wheat for the mills, but will handle
business booked for -four export.
Feed-Prices continue fairly steady
Oats and barley are unchanged, as arr
also millfeed and hay.

ties. The mills attribute this decision
to a slump in the lumber market.
The outlook for renewal of the
price advance movement is regarded
as likely to materialize. The an
nounced price of wheat above the So
mark to the producer, the strong up
ward trend in meat products and the
shortage in canned goods pack for the
Northwest are all significant as indi-
eating that the high cost of living will

Butter-Market has reached record

of Washington creamery butter is es-

ing affected most pronouncedly by the
fact that condenseries have been in

prices for milk that butter manufac-
turers cannot afford to pay.

A Message From The Red Cross

Mrs. Belmont Tiffany has written fol
the August issue of Harper's Bazaar a
very interesting article on "A Message
from the American Red Cross to the
Women of America. She especially
mentions the part that women of society
are taking in this great work, and also
tells of the organizations rapid growth
since the war began in 1914.
Mrs Tiffany explains very clearly the
different functions of the Red Cross; for
instance, this is what she says about the
Department of Civilian Relief
perhaps it Is not generally known by
persons not fumilar with the work that
the Red Cross has a Department OF
Civilian Relief, with which the Depart
ment of Military Relief coordinates and
cooperates. In other words, the Red
Cross is responsible for relief of all kinds
for our own army and navy and is
chartered to take care not only of the
sick and wounded soldiers. but of all
who need aid of any sort. 1t is also re-
quired to take care of and look after the
dependent families and children of the
members of the United States Army and
Navy. All over the country we are do
ing civilian relief work."

day with a 4 to victory for the To-
Gals over st. Louis after 10 innings.
The winning run was forced over the
plate. Eddie Collins opened the
tenth inning with a triple. Manager

Davenport to pass Jackson and Felsch,

unable to locate the plate and walked
Gandil on four pitched balls, fore
ing the winning run across the plate.

distinguished himself by scoring the
tieing run in the seventh. After Schalk
had singled and stole second, Murphy
batted for Willi2ms. He hit to Dav-

tween second and third, Murphy going
to second on the play. He scored on
Leibold's double and forced the game

TWO WAYS TO WIN
By BILLY SUNDAY
Famous Evangelist

They are whirling down the stretch
in the big show-have you given It
a tumble?
NO, not the war, this time-the
baseball battle. And they're closing
up on the scrap that will gather as
many readers, for a few days, as the
muss across the water. You get me
the old worlds series.
Gazing at 1t froms this angle, It
looks like a walk-in for Muggsy Nc
Graw's Giants in their league, and
for the bunch from my old home
town, the Chicago White Sox in the
other outfit 1t ought TO be romp
for these contenders.
And then may the best crew wallop
the second best-though I'll be pulling
a bit for Chicago, on account of hav-
ing sported those pale hose myself
once upon a time.
1t strikes me, though, there Is
small lesson in this years diamond
doings, which might be entitled,
Two ways to win" And those two
ways go in the show of life as well
as out there chucking the old horse
hide.
The first fashion is to get out in
front as soon as you can, and stay
there. That's the way McGraw's
athletes have torn it off in 1917 They
made the big dash early in the sea
son and then their only job was to
hold on.

Atlanta, September 16.-(Special. !
The Georgia School of Technology,
known better as the Tech Yellow Jack =
cts, have arranged the most pretenti-
Gus schedule ever attempted by a
southern football team for the 1917
season and still have an open date
on their schedule
There are 10 games on the schedule
included in which are three Of the
strongest southern teams and two of
the big eastern schools
departure never before attempted
is playing two schools on one day On
the opening day of the season, Sep
TENDER 20, the Jackets will play Wake
Forest and Furman. According to the
agreement varsity eligibles must play
in each game and Coach Heisman will
divide his squad as to play the two
teams.
The University Of Pennsylvania,
Coach Heisman's old alma mater, have
been booked for game here October
6 and it is certain that a record crowd
will be in attendance to greet the east
erners.
The Carlisle Indians are the other
eastern team that will appear on the
local grounds. They are scheduled to
play here November Z.
Virginia was on the Jack cts sched-
ule, but due to their uncertainty about
having football owing to the war,
Washington and Lee. which had the
November 3 date, was moved up to Oc-
tober 90 and Vanderbilt substituted
in the November date.
With Davidson, Washington and Lee,
Vanderbilt and Auburn on the sched-
ule, the Jackets will meet four strong
southern contenders.
Only one game is played on the road,
the Jackets going to New Orleans on
November 10 for a game with Tulane.
The following is the official sched-
ule as announced by Coach Heisman.
There is an open date which he still
wants to fill:
September 29-Double header, Wake
Forest and Furman at Grant Field.
October 6--Pennsylvania at Grant
Field.
October 13-Davidson at Grant Field.
October 2o--Washington and Lee at
Grant Field.
October 27-Open

fraction of points per game. After serv-
ing two seasons with the University Of
Minnesota Dobie went to the Minneap-
oils High school for one year and spent
the next two seasons coaching the
North. Dakota Aggies. In 1908 he
transferred his alliance to the Univer-
sity of Washington, where he coached
until the close of the 1915 season.
Dobie is coach of marked person
ality. He has the unusual faculty Of
developing fast, clever playing teams
from almost any kind of material. He
naturally prefers fast, heavy backs
and 'linemen, when they are available,
but can apparently mould a winning
team from less promising candidates
where necessary. He is a strict dis
ciplinarian, demanding absolute obedi-
ence to his commands and instructions.
He insists that every member of the
team shall play hard but clean foot
ball and will not use man of ques-
tionable courage, no matter what his
natural football ability may be. Dobie
also has the faculty of arousing the
keenest enthusiasm and loyalty among
the squads he has coached and his
teams have been noted for their fight
ing ability from whistle to whistle.

SPORTS

The second system is to battle your
way from behind That's how the
White Sox have operated. And this
way includes the slogan, Don't be
buffaloed." Do you recollect little
David-one of the nerviest guys in
the Bible-how he damned UP to Co
Hath and said:
You big stiff! Where do you get
off?'
And then soaked him on the bean
and croaked him. The White Sox
said that to Boston. They couldn't
see where that bunch, because they
had got away with couple of cham
pionships, stood to think every other
club were bushers. And the Sox
came from the back and got away
with it.
Paw this stuff over in your mind,
fellows.
If you are a brilliant bird, all right.
Make your run right from the bang
of the gun. Chuck the dust in 1.-The
trailers eyes. Get SO far forward
that they can't lamp you without the
Lick telescope.
But If you're just a game guy, 60
to the mat with your rival all the
way through. He may have the rep,
but, If you have the wallop and keep
trying to land it, he'll hit the canvas,
and. as my old friend Bob Fitzsim-
