Chicago and San Francisco Church
People Inaugurate Movement to
Abolish Expensive TOggery.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 5-Eas-
ter Sunday 1917, will be remarkable
for the fact that it's observance in
San Francisco church did not CON
sist of a fashion show for the main
attraction and divine services as an
excuse. if a movement started in
Chicago and taken up in San Fran
cisco is carried out. A coterie of
girl members of a Christian Endeav-
or society in Chicago, started the
idea when they decided to keep their
fancy Easter bonnets and their new
spring clothes in the dark recesses of
the family trunk on Easter day and
to devote themselves to the spiritual
and not the decidedly material form
of worship. In San Francisco the
Rev. ]. H. Barney of the California
street church made the first step
when he requested that the choir of
his church, which is to render ella
borate Easter music, come in simple
raiment, just to set a good example
for the congregation.

matter, probably would gum up his
tory's pages with records of baseball
enthusiasm. These things are in the
offing. Baseball is getting ready for
it. If they don't come to pass the
baseball worlds going to be awfully
disappointed.
There has been very little jockeying
of teams during the winter months.
Most of them will enter the con-
flict in much the same shape as they
quit last year, with the exception of
the caverages. First division times
are generally picked as follows:
American League: Chicago. Boston.
Detroit and New York. National
League: New York, Boston, Brooklyn
and Philadelphia. Philadelphia in
the American League and Cincinnati
in the National, have provided the
fans with some tender mOrseIs of
argument during the winter Under
the tutelage of Christy MatheSOn the
Reds look nearer a baseball team
than for several years. He has gath
cred some youngsters, has attempted
to make over his pitching staff, and
he has Hal Chase If the Reds i'm
prove, everyone will be we'll satisfied.
Connie Mack a long time ago men
toned in casual conversation that
he expected to have his team back
in the fight for the 1917 pennant
race He has had a lot of ball play
ers since that famous sayfnng, but it
really looks as if he would cut more
of a figure this year than since he
welded the ak on his one time steam
roller. He has a fairly good infield
an average outfield, and a coming
pitching staff In addition, he has
three splendid catchers. His team
will be one of the heaviest hittin e
organizations on the American league
If his pitchers prove equal to the
task he'll make trouble
The centering of power in a few
clubs has looked bad for some time
but the gradual climb of lower clubs
for several years makes it appear
that there will be more action in the
national pastime this year than for
several seasons.
There is a certain psychology con-
nected with every sport that either
makes or breaks it. Baseball is af-
fected this way, perhaps, more than
any of the others. 1t is impossible to
make baseball popular under GER
tain conditions, among which is the
existence of league such as the late
lamented federal; and internal dissen-
sions such as marked the life of the
baseball players fraternity
If the fan is given something OF
this sort to take part of his attention
from the real action of baseball, the
game is going to suffer. The bad in
fluence of the fraternity was seen in
the publicity given to many claims OF

BROOD MARE SHOULD
RECEIVE GOOD FEED
High Price of Grain Tends to
Make Some Owners Stingy
With Winter Feeding.

Proper food for the brood mare in
winter is not given due consideration
in seasons of high-priced grain. in the
opinion Of DIR. c. w McCampbell. as
sociate professor of animal husbandry
In the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.
AN increased number of complaints
regarding mares which have lost their
colts are always noted in years of high
priced feeds" said Doctor McCamp-
bell. "This condition is due primarily
to two reasons. The mare owner, be-
ing DESTROYS of carrying his mares
through the winter as cheaply as pos
sible. depends largely upon such
roughages as prairie hay cane. katir,
and corn fodder. This kind Of a RAJ
ton is constipating and such condi-
ton prolonged often causes abortion.
'When feeds are as high as they are
at present, one is tempted to reduce
the amount given, especially the grain
portion of the ration, but he usually
finds this to be expensive economy in
the case of the brood mare. In. order
to raise the maximum number of colts
the brood mare must be well fed and
cared for, and if one is compelled to
rely largely upon roughages, bran and
linseed oil meal should be added to
the ration"

Omitted Pressl

NEW YORK, April 1O.-Baseball,
opening tomorrow in both major
leagues, is going to be given the
greatest shove down the chutes lead
ing to the worlds series that it ever
experienced. Set psychologically
physically and financially for dash
along the seasons stretch the game
will mount to heights it never before
saw.
Only one thing, the declaration of
war, mars the prospect. Gov. John K.
Toner, president Of the National
League, smashed the ancient nail
squarely on its battered head when
he expressed recently to the United
Press the belief that the game is
entering the most successful period
Of it's long and prosperous career.
Tener had the hunch that war
wasn't going to have a bit of effect
in dragging the national pastime from
q chosen peak on the apple of the
public's eye. Only actual participa-
tioz in the struggle on this side of
the Atlantic, he said, could keep the
game from wallowing in popularity
right up to the last ball.
And if predictions hold out and the
Chicago White Sox make their way
into a cut of the worlds series coin,
SEINE records for worlds series pop
slarity are going to fall quivering by
the wayside. The White Sox in a
worlds series tilt with the New York

ball players that they were being
treated badly. 1t gave the fans some
thing to talk about. 1t has been
shown in the crushing of the threat
ened strike, that the players were not
in harmony and the public mind has
been diverted.
There was no federal league last
year, but the fact that it has had a
full year to pass from memory will
help the game tremendously.
