McGra~ Lost Three Big

McGraw, it is true, lost three con-
secutive world series With his late
three-time champion Giants. Against
the Athletics it was case OF the m
evitable. He was outclassed million
miles. and nothing but exceptional gen
eralship enabled his average club TO
make such cool showing As 1t did
against one of the very greatest base

In 1912 McGraw was again outclassed

his resources so skilfully that only the
hardest kind of luck cheated him OF the
laurels after he had carried Boston TO

Eddie Collins, one of the greatest
second basemen Of all time. has not
been himself this year. He has hit
miles below his customary form. Dur
ing the last few weeks he seems to
have got back in his stride, and he
may be depended upon to show 10 the
best advantage against New York. For
Collins has been through far too many
successful flights with the Athletics to
be bothered by the Importance of the
classic.
Il is scarcely fair under the existing
circumstances to compare Herzog with
Collins. Charlie has been sick all year,
and if he takes p. TT in the series can
scarcely hope to be az his best. In
the best of health Herzog would have
10 ask odds of no man, not even OF
Collins. His value to a team is even
greater than that of the Keystone King.
For Charlie is a fighter who enthuses
and carries along his teammates 20 the
crest Of their fighting ability, while
Eddie is more or less OF the shrinking
violet type.
Chicago, then. dopes TO have
marked advantage on the first base
wing Of the intield. Quite as striking
an advantage favors the Giants on the
other wing of the first defensive line.
Heinie Zimmerman is the best third
baseman in the game. He has played
this wear with all the brilliancy OF
Jimmy Collins in his prime. McMullin,
the contemporary of the great Zim, is,
like Smith. somewhat of an experiment.
Rival Outfielders

Arthur Fletcher must be given the

Moran Predicts
Giants Victory

In an interview Manager Pat
Moran Of the Phillies goes on record
as predicting the Giants will easily
defeat the White Sox in the ap-
preaching world series.
Moran says the driving ability OF
New York will be the telling feat
ure of the series, claiming McGraw's
men will hit any pitcher Rowland
can trot out. The Philly boss looks
for Schupp and Sallee to do most OF
the pitching for New York, with
Perritt a third selection.
Percy Haughton, of the Boston
Braves, who says he has followed
the work of the Giants and SOx all
year. also likes New York.

Battery Strength Plays I'm
portant Part in Short
Series of Games
By w. ]. Macbeth

/ Is easy enough IN baseball 10
let enthusiasm run away with
- discretion. This is particular
ly true regarding such short series
as that for the world championship,
because there are so very many ur-
expected things that may develop to
give either side the jump for the
four games necessary.
1t has been argued that the pres
ent method of conducting this
classic affair does not furnish a real
inc on the respective abilities Of the
contestants. Any mediocre club is
liable to take the long end OF shor;
series from a rival of acknowledged
superior class.
We have had many striking illus
trations of this The most impress
sive, perhaps, was the great upset
Connie Mack's famous old Athletics
experienced in 1914 at the hands of
the Boston Braves. Boston defeat
ed in four straight games team
universally believed invincible in
series of such vast Importance.
In a short series battery strength is
very potent factor. Both clubs are
well equipped with pitching, so that
neither will have TO put up with fal'
tering twirler at any time. Here the
similarity of the situation IS most
striking. Each side has three sterling
left-handers and one sensational right
lander. One need not extol the virtues
of Ferdie Schupp. Rube Benton and
slim Sallee. Russell, Danforth and
Williams. on their seasons work, form
a stand-off for these. Eddie Cicotte,
Of the White Sox, has proved the best
right-hander in the American League
this season. His work has been no
more sensational than that Of Poll Per
rift through the run OF the last two
months. Ray Schalk, OF the Sox, is un-
doubtedly the best catcher OF the game.
Yet, wonderful as he is, Schak is very
little superior as backstop 10 Lew
McCarty. The latter carries by far the
more dangerous wallop. But Lew,
never fast man, will be handicapped
still further from the injured leg which
kept him out OF the lineup most of the
season and which he still has TO favor
some. Schalk, on the other hand, is by
far the best base running catcher in
the business. Unbiased reflection,
therefore, would indicate as even bal
ance in the respective battery strength
as could we'll be imagined.

BUSINESS IN KIMBERLY GOOD

A casual observer. though he might
be impressed with the hustle and evil
dence of Kimberly business, would
hardly dream of the immense amount
Of business that is being carried on
by the local firms. Stores are taking
III in cash over a thousand dollars in
a single day, not speaking of the inn
mense amount of credit business that
is being done.
Farmers, merchants, and even the
wage earners Of Kimberly have few
complaints to offer from lack of pros
perity, for all alike are enjoying the
greater earnings in their respective
histories.
The Advance recently made com
parisons between the business of GER
tain leading firms in Kimberly and
those of one of Canyon countys most
prominent cities, and found that as
large a business was being conducted
in Kimberly as in Nampa. which is at
present a flourishing town, that is
speaking of like enterprises.

FRUIT SEASON OPENS

The season of apples has commenc-

the local packing houses engaged an
increased force of expert packers and
sizers, and over a thousand boxes a
day are being packed, preparatory for
shipment, as soon as cars can be Sc
cured.
Many of the orchards are packing
their own apples either in boxes or in
the fruit baskets, while a tremendous
amount of fruit is being handled by
the packing houses.
There seems to have been an ex-
ccptionally good crop this year, and
the apples are not only plentiful, but
also practically faultless in size and
quality. The packing houses are spe-
cializing in fancy fruits and fancy
packs. All apples for shipment are
being wrapped for the sake OF preser-

KIMBERLY CANNOT AC-
COMM0DATE ITS TRADE
LabOrers Quit Jobs For Want OF a
Place To Eat and Stephen Re-
fused at Hotel and Restaurants.

Kimberly faces a very serious mat
ter in the lack of facilities to ac-
c0mmodate its guests. This fact was
especially revealed today, October IS,
when the local hotel and cafe, had to
refuse to men, who had come to Kim
berly for the purpose of hauling beets,
meals that would have been willing
ly paid for. So crowded was the ho-
tel, and so immense was the multitude
of customers that surrounded the
tables of the cafe that from actual
want of room and food, several hard
working men with a good hearty appe-
tite had to be turned away AS a
result several of these men threw up
their Jobs.
1t is a very serious matter in these
days when labor is so scarce to have
men quit, especially positions that are
responsible in the preservation and
transportation of products essential
to the support of the country. Yet
it seems that they can do little else
under the circumstances. Some farm
ers, because OF this condition, and the
danger of lOosing necessary help to
handle their beet crop, are providing
TO feed these men at their homes. This
is of course inconvenient as the men
have TO take lunches with them for
the noon hour because of their inabil-
ity to return to the farms in time for
dinner after having made a trip to
town.
This is the condition that Kimberly
has TO face at the present time. And
not only does this shortage of room
and lack of eating facilities effect the
labor of the vicinity, but it has prov
en- a great burden and handicap to
whole families who have moved into
town for business reasons, with in
tentions of making Kimberly their
home, and have been forced to leave
again because of no place to live, and
