K N ] WS A GOOD SHOR TST UP
 LIN SIGHT
(By United Press)

NEW YORK, May IS. - Walter Me Credie, manager of the Portland Pa cific Coast League club, is ready to send another shortstop to the major leagues. Charley Hollocher, he de clares, is ready. and will stick just as surely as some of the others McCredie has turned up.
 McCredie has accumulated a habi, of sending shortstops to the majors sprinkled around over both circuits is smattering of former Beaver short fielders.
 Roger Peckinpaugh, now captain of the Yankees. and one of the smartest and cleverest ball players in either league, was McCredit's first donation of any importance. McCredie dis patched him to Cleveland, but he was dropped there because shortstops were too frequently scattered around the Cleveland park. But he went to New York and immediately made good.
 Ivan Olson was next. Ivan isn't a whale of fielder, not demon with the stick, but he is recognized as a smart ball player, one of the wise fellows who are invaluable to a base ball club Wilbert Robinson wanted to send Ivan to Vernon last winter to take over the management of that club, but the big league clubs would not waive and Ivan stuck. He was with Cleveland for some time, and just before Joe Birmingham and the Cleveland owners threw their hats in the ring, Ivan was seriously consid. cred as a possible successor to the Cleveland managership.
 Then there came Dave Bancroft starring every day for the Phillies. It has been said of Bancroft that it was due to him that the Phillies won a pennant in 1915. Of course, every one admits that Grover Cleveland Alex ander had something to do with it but the Phillies certainly would have looked funny without a shortstop. And Bancroft was the only one of half dozen recruits that year who showed anything.
 Chuck Ward is this years contribu tion. McCredie calls him the bal hawk" He never was a hard chance He is one of the easiest working in fielders in the business. McCredie believes he will prove one of the stars of the National League in very short time. He is making an attempt to fill Hans Wagner's shoes at Pitsburg

SEATTLE, May IS. - The delivery of goods and the taking of goods upon approval are responsible for an unne- cessary part of the high cost of living, according to A. J.

 Thirty per cent of all goods sold must be delivered, according to MT. Rhodes. The other 70 per cent of the purchasers have to stand the cost of the delivery in their proportionate share, he says.

ASKS FOR SEEDS BUT WAN TS
 POTATOES

Editor White. of the Douglas News, has addressed the following communi- cation, in his Stroller" column, to Hon. Charles Sulzer, M. C., Washing ton, D. C.:
 The Stroller" takes his typewriter on his knee to inform you that several dozen of his subscribers have called at his sanctum sanctorum lately to in- quire for government-furnishe seed of all kinds, his office in former years having been something of a distribut- ing center for congressional donations of this kind. But this year there has been nothing to distribute and disap- pointment has been the portion of the seed seekers in this quarter. If the supply is not exhausted, you could make a hit in this locality by sending a consignment of rolled oats, puffed wheat and distilled rye. Also a few hundred pounds of potatoes (for plant ing, of course) would tend to emblazon your name in the hearts of the people regardless of former party utilization. Even "Wickites" would enjoy your po- tatoes. If you could arrange to have the size and the packages of free seed doubled as compared to those of for mer years, it would be boon to strug. gling agriculturists.
 The Stroller" can cheerfully reeom- mend any seed that comes from the department of agriculture. Only few years ago he planted some department of agriculture grass seed and the lawn that resulted was a thing of beauty and joy to every dog for miles round. In fact, dogs would come from far out the trail to scratch their backs and otherwise revel on the "Stroller's" lawn. The seed was warranted to pro- duce grass the first season only. Af- ter that it was likely to be dog fennel, yarrow or any other variety of wood anything but grass.
 If it can be demonstrated that puff fed wheat and rolled oats can be sue cessfully grown in this portion of the country, then will it's future be as- sured, for there is no doubt but that milkweed would flourish here and all we would then be required to buy would be the sugar, and by using a lit- tie less of the latter at each sitting, we could gradually taper off and final ly do without it entirely.
 The Stroller" mentions this matter, MT. Sulzer, too keep you in touch with the sentiment of this community, which is rapidly turning to thoughts agricultural. The smell of newly turn ed 1oam is becoming very au fait and garden rakes and hoes are much af- fected by our society leaders. Egg stain on the necktie or vest is now reckoned a vulgar display of wealth, so much has the economic prepared ness spirit encompassed us.
 P. S.-Don't bother about sending flower seeds, but double the usual DO tato allowance.
