MARYLAND WEEK" SHOW
POSTPONED One YEAR
Meeting to he Held as Usual in De
cember, But Exhibition is Put on
4 Year.

The Council OF the Maryland Agri-
cultural Society, composed of the
representatives of the affiliated State
associations. at recent meeting de-
cided upon December Is to %, in
elusive. as the most desirable time
this year for holding Maryland
Week" meeting, or the annual meet
ings of the Maryland Agricultural
Society and affiliated associations, in
Guiding the State Horticultural So
ciety. the Maryland Crop Improve
ment Association, the State Dairy
mems Association and the State Bee
keerers' Association.
At 4 meeting of the Council in
May, a committee was appointed to
consider the advisability of holding
the "Maryland Week" exhibition and
10 ascertain the possibility of secul-
ing the Fifth Regiment Armory,
where the exhibition has previously
been held. This committee reported
that after consultation with the Gov
ernor and Adjutant General, it was
considered most improbable that the
Armory could be secured on account
of military needs. The Council con-
sidered many other matters bearing
were unable to cooperate this year
the transportation problem and the
fact that the farmers and all forces
will be rushed this fall in conserving
the products of the season, the diff
ficulty of securing club exhibits, etc.
After careful consideration, and
viewing the situation from every
standpoint, the Council decided to
hn NJ
for one year, and to devote every eff
fort toward making the annual meet
ings in December the best in the
history of the affiliated associations.
1t is hoped at this time to feature
practical discussions and demonstra-
tions that will be of interest and
value to all branches of agriculture,
with particular reference to prepar-
edneSs measures.
In addition to the efforts which
will be put forth in connection with
the annual meetings, it was urged
by the Council that every effort be
made 10 develop and encourage the
holding of local community shows in
the different counties. 1t was felt
that such local exhibits of farm, gar
den and orchard will have tendency
to stimulate local interest, promote
educational work, which should re-
suit in the greater production of
more valuable food products. These
local community shows can be held
with small expense of time and labor
and will reach a large number of
farmers and home-makers. The va
rious associations represented by the
Council of the State Agricultural So
ciety are anxious to cooperate in
making such community exhibits a
success and a permanent feature.

BASEBALL IN SOUTH AMERICA
Many Promising Players Found Among
Expert Workmen Secured for Gull
tivation Of Sugar.

The European war may be RESPONSE
BILE for introducing baseball into South
America. The centuries of South
America whose soil Is adapted to the
cultivation of sugar are sending to
Cuba for expert workmen in that
branch of industry, and rs Il result
baseball promises to be rs well known
In Latin-America as II Is In the West
Indies. The Cubans have taken to the
game like duck to water, and there
are numberless teams scattered all
over the island. 1t Is not improbable
that in the future the championship of
America will not be settled until the
northern ana southern hcmispheres
have battled on the diamond.
The South Americans are sport
loving people, and once the fascinating
game of baseball fastens itself on
them there should he wave of en-
thusiasm all over that continent. As
soon ms the South Americans under
stand the sport the turnsties ut the
bull fights will not be very busy

The emery ball was short-lived in the
major leagues. Action against II was

With the splitter 1t Is different, Hun
dreds of younger pitchers who are
coming up have adopted the splitter
for use in the tight places. 1t Is used
by at least 40 per cent of the pitchers
Of the country today and 1t has be
come an institution. So the splitter
will live for some time to come and
may never be barred.
The fact that many baseball men
do not champion the moist ball will
make no difference, and, rs Jimmy
Callahan declares, II would be I'm in

Stengel is spectacular, even when
doing nothing in particular. He has
more fans around the circuit who come
out to the Brooklyn teams games,
with the special idea of kidding him,

In Cincinnati and Boston, especially,
where the right field bleachers do n

with the foghorn voices treasure up
the bits of repartee they have heard In
the winter to hurl at G. d. Stengel In

WAR TO AID BASEBALL
Would Stimulate Interest in Ma.
tional Sport, Says Foster.
Secretary Of New York Giants Agrees
With President Barrow That Game
Would Not suffer--Would
Affect Seacoast.

John b. Foster, secretary Of the New
York Giants, agrees with President
Barrow of the International league that
the game of baseball will not suffer be-
cause of war. He believes even that
baseball might be stimulated.
"War has never hurt baseball in
this country" said Foster. "As mat
ter of fact, It was the baseball played
during the Civil war by the soldiers
which resulted in giving the game its
great impetus in this country.
Baseball was highly prosperous dur
ing the Spansh-American war. Toron-
to had an extraordinary good season
last year. AS result of the pres
ent war in Europe there Is more base
ball being played I'm England and
France than ever before. and the game
has gained a foothold in Italy. The
reservists who were called home to
the colors took the sport with them
when they left this country.
Baseball games have been played
repeatedly close to the actual fighting
line. One game mt Vcrdun went seven
innings before ir was broken up by
the appearance Of hostile aeroplnnes.
"There Is lot Of baseball being
played around London, and 1t is ex.

USING SPITBALL AGAIN
SpitbaII Reformers Fail In At.
tempts to Cut Out Splitter.
Jimmy Callahan Of Pirates Declares Il
Would Be Unfair to leeislete
Against Moist Delivery at
This Late Date.

The spitball will be hurled at the
battcrs again this season by pitchers
all over the country.
II will continue on its moist and
foggy way despite the efforts of some
baseball reformers to legislate II out
of the pastime, for the splitter has be-
come just as much part of the pitch
er's art as the curve.
During the hot.stovc season. which
came to u close with the departure for
the South. the splitter came In for its
annual panning. Baseball men in vari-
Gus parts of the country talked against
It. Chief among the pansters was Percy
ID. Haughton of the Boston Braves,
who believes the elimination of the
splitter would be long step toward
increasing hitting.
Haughton put the splitter on the
is honest in his convictions against
1t. But the members of the rules
committee did not even discuss the
splitter in n casual way. The rules
committee found practically nothing
to do. for the rules as they stand
today are just about as solid as they
can be made.
In discussing the spitbnll at one
of the National league sessions last
winter, Jimmy Callahan of the ri.
rates. advanced the opinion that II
would be unfair to legislote against
1t now. Callahan believes that the
moist delivery has been in vogue
too long. He pointed out that 1t has
been In use at least ten years, and
