second. Bill Webb beat out an infleld tap. Caton lifted a weak pop fly to Lunfe and Ellis evidently thinking two men were out. sauntered for the plate.
 The entire line of players on the Baron bench. together with Mcdonald, who was coaching on third tried to call Ellis back to the bag but he persisted to wander homeward Consequently double play was completed. This was the prize bone of the day and robbed the Barons of an excellent chance to forge into the lead Clark's smash placed affairs on an even basis.
 GULLS WIN GAME
 The Gulls took a safe lead in the sev- enth. Bowden bunted and beat it out taking second on Comstocks s wild heave to first He was caught mapping on sec ond, Haworth to Caton, few minutes later. Comstock passed MeDowell. He attempted to steal and Haworth threw the ball to center field. McDowell dashed for third. Ellis let the ball get by him and the Gull keystoner completed his journey to the plate without ever check ing his speed.
 Walter Golvin was hit by a pitched, ball Comstock evidently disgusted, be- gan to work fast and Pope slammed out a triple to deep center, Golvln scoring. Myers scored Pope on the squeeze play. !
 Comstock had the Gulls on his hip from the second until the seventh and then the eighth and ninth. Tn the eighth he struck out three men. In the third, fifth3and sixth he wiffed two while one came each in the ninth and fourth. Lt was tough game to lose, but the. Gulls were certainly the deserving winners.

 Pope Alleged to Have Used Emery Ball

 StuDid bnse running, coupled with
 cratic work in fine field. gave the
 Mobile Guns their second straight
 victory over the pennant chasing
 u,rons xesterdny afternoon at
 RicEwood by the score of to %'
 Incidentally, the defeat of the
 Rarous crushed the winning streak
 of Ralph ComstOck. who had won
 six games prior to his entry into
 yesterdays weird fracas.
 Comstock pitched a good game although he was wild and hit timely in the first round. Had his support been of the first class calibre, however there is no doubt but that a victory would have been reg istered by Moleys men The Baron finger struck out Il Gulls, which is a season record for the Southern league in strike outs for one game.
 The Barons had men on the paths to score but, as on the previous day, they lacked the punch. Seven men were left or the paths when safety would have counted one and oftentimes two men.
 POPE MASTERS BARONS
 
 Frank Pope, young recruit, was on the hill for the Gulls and with the all legged aid of the emery ball, mastered the Barons when he apparently so desired. The Barons thought the Gull finger was using the forbidden ball and they tried in vain to catch him in the act. Pope, with the aid of Catcher Griffith, worked the use of the emery perfectly and few were able to detect how it was being put on the ball
 The Gulls repeated their performance of Monday and took a handsome lead from the start Benny Myers hit the first ball offered by Comstock to deep center He was thrown out at the plate attempt ing to stretch the blow into a home run perfect relay, Ellis to Webb to John ston to Haworth, caught the Gull out fielder at the plate. This was the only real good play executed by the Barons during the days work.
 Harry Lunte followed with a double to center and Ray Jansen was passed. Milton Reed was also passed, filling the hassocks Griffith popped out to Clark. Tim Bowden worked Comstock for a pass. forcing Lunte across. Haworth at tempted to catch Bowden off first and threw wild Jansen scored. Bowden, however, was nipped at second, Johnston to Caton.
 BARONS TALLY IN FIRST
 The Barons tallied once in the first Johnston walked as starter and Eddie Mcdonald lined out to right. Cecil Coombs singled to right on the hit and run signal and Doc raced around to third. Danny Clark hit bounder to second and Doc Johnston scored. Danny was out at first. Cecil stole third. Ellis walked, but Bill Webb couldn't deliver. reIn the third after one man was gone, Danny Clark sliced one of Pope's fast balls to deep left field for circuit clout. Ellis followed with a single and stole

Where's this old world agoin,
I'm getin kinder skeered,
1t seems just like we're whizzin b
And amt a gettin' scared.
And if we keep on goin'
We'er sure to jump the track,
Or get so far away from home,
We never will get back.
Their goin' in the submarines,
And autos geared up high,
And men like birds in areoplanes
Are sailin in the sky.
If only men were soarin round
My knees they wouldn't rub,
Until l see the pesky thing
Is gettin' the grub.
There's corn dollar forty cents,
And wheat is even more,
While oats are tryin' to follow suit,
All blame it on the war
There's tatters jumped upon the
fence,
And then upon the roof,
And now their sailin' in the trees
Seem bound to stay aloof
There's beef stake got its stakes
set high,
And mutton tryin' to foller,
l wouldn't be surprised to see the
hogs
A rockin' in the parlor
There's bacon, beans and butter,
Cdfee, sugar and all that
A chasin' a feller's wallet,
Till he can't tell where it's at.
Some talk "the cuontry's gettin'
rich,"
That talk sounds very well,
Until the fellow talkin'
Has to buy instead of sell.
And so my head is muddled,
I'm straddle of the fence,
A decidin if a dollar
isn't only fifty cents.

WEIGHING A PIG.

the Farm Lad Solved II.
A Massachusetts boy has solved {
problem which ought to be of inter
est to all farm youngsters. If you
had pig and wanted to weigh him
but owned pair of scales record.
ing only twelve pounds, what would
you do about it?
This eastern farmer boy had en-.
tered a pig in contest conducted
by the agricultural department and
had to keep monthly records OF
gains in weight, but he suffered the
handicap described above. His solu-
ton was credit to his ingenuity.
The boy notched a high board
fence, put long pole evenly across
it. resting in the notch, and fasten-
ed a crat to one end OF the pole
and box to the other. He put sand
in the box until the pole was exact
ly balanced. Then he enticed the
pig into the crate by means of corn.
fastened him and put small stones
into the box until the pole agin
balanced. These stones he weighed
on his little scales, load after load,
and their total gave him the weight
OF the pig.
That boy when he grows up may
invent the much talked of institu-
tute for gasolene. --Des Moines Regis

lcELEsS REFRIGERATION JUST
RIGHT EOR SUMMER

Refrigerators can be made to d.
their part in conserving food. Pre-
serving milk, butter and other sup
plies and keeping left overs and un
used portions until they are needed
will be their service. If ice is not
obtainable, an iceless Refrigerator
cooled by evaporation, can be easily

wooden frame covered with Canton
flannel, burlap or heavy duck It is
desirable that the frame be screen

as the covering, resting in pan
of water on top of the cooler, con-
duct the water over the sides and

is the way to build it:
Make a screened case 8 1-2 feet
high, with the other dimensions IL
by Is inches. If solid top is used,
simply place the water pan on this.
Otherwise fit the pan closely into
the opening of the top frame and
support it by one inch cleats fast
aned to the inside OF the frame.
Place two movable shelves in the
frame IL to Is inches apart. Use a
biscuit pan II by IA inches on the
top to hold the water and where the
refrigerator is to be used indoors
have the whole thing standing in
a large pan to catch any drip. The
pans and case may be painted white,
A covering of white Canton flan-
lel should be made to fit the frame.
Have the smooth side out and but
on the covering on the frame with
buggy or automobile curtain hooks

nay be opened without christening

HOW CAN WE MARKET
OUR POTATOES?

In answering that question w
shall not attempt to tell poato grow
ers how they can get top price.
for their products, or when K
sell and to whom, but rather to
treat the subject on the broader
lines of policy, prudence, and econ
omy, guided by the purpose not
alone to obtain fair price in the
present sale az the product, but al.
so to establish an open and perma-
nent market for the future.
Though quality is always the first
consideration in the price of pota-
toes, good reputation is equally
as valuable in finding a market for
them In order to appreciate that
fact, one must have seen the game
played at the selling end of the
line. 1t is quite necessary that grow
ars and shippers be reminded of the
necessity OF proper grading, even
though at the present time anything
that looks like potato is salable.
The time will come again when We
shall have to depend on the SUI
perior quality of our shipping stock
to find a sale for it at a price
that leaves a profit to the grower
after the freight and expenses have
been paid That time may not be
so very far off either.
In the potato business as well as
in any other business, honesty is
the best policy Whether the price
of potatoes is high or low, they
should be sorted true to grad" care |
fully and honestly A few sacks of
inferior grade, mixed into a car,
depreciate the selling value of every
sack in the car, and what is worse,
the reputation not alone a. the
damaged to the extent thhat such
practice is carried on. Shippers
should jealously guard the reputa-
ton of their district in this re-
spect and try to discourage careless
or dishonest sorting df potatoes,
wherever noticed 1t took years to
build up quality and reputation of
the Idaho spuds and we must better
same. if possible, but never les
sen them.
