GIANTS REIGN FAVORITES
Odds at Present Are to 5, With Much Speculation Concerning Loca- tiOn of Onenfnr Game

New York, Sept, 2o.-The' Giants are still favorites in the Wall street betting to win the Worlds champion ship series, although there is not much doing in this line pending a decision as to what city the first game is to be played in, and, more important than this, as to whether or not Herzog is to play for the local team.
 Percy Guard a curb broker, yyester- day had considerable money to place at evens on the Giants, but the best the followers of the White Sox would offer was to 10. Some small bets were placed on the New York nine at 6 to but these odds were not con- sidered representative of the actual betting market.

New York, Sept. 20.-Though re- enforced by a drove of bush leaguers the Yankees yesterday remained as feeble as before and squeezed out but enc solitary hit from Stanley Cove leskie, the clever right handed broth CT of Harry, erstwhile Polish giant killer. One of the easiest things the young "Covey" does is to shut out the humble Yankees. He did that little thing yesterday, Cleveland winning by a score of ? to 0.
 But there was little balm for the depressed Yankees. Just before ab- ovan regulars took a fall out of the herd of Yankee Colts assembled at the Polo Grounds by Joe Kelly and his staff of scouts. The regulars licked the new arrivals to o in a six in- ming game. This was the first of a series of inter-team games which will be put on each day prior to the regu- larly scheduled game.
 A clean single to center field by Fritzy Maisel, opening the Yankees half of the seventh, deprived Cove leskie of realizing the pet mbition of every pitchers life, namely, to fling a no hit game.

ENTER THE MORPHINE KISS
Latest Form of Oscillation 10 Prac-

Chlcago.-Onicers of the house OF

discovered the morphine kiss as the
latest form of osculation practiced on

calls the prison AUTHORIZES never have

to the patient.
Authorities at the bridewell propose

service of new sire and at the same
time make it possible to determine
which are the best producers SO that
those not making good can be dis
posed of.
A sufficient number of the best fe-
males from the successful sires should
be retained, and in some cases male
offspring may be put into service in
the neighborhood. This will obviate
the necessity for any further extern
sive purchases and give constant sup
ply of good blood and uniform quality.
In addition, 1t will provide an adequate
number of animals to take the place of
those that die, are injured, or sold. The
serviceable sires crossed with the fe-
males retained will be of incalculable
value in the continued production of
animals of outstanding merit
Lack of Uniformity.
One of the reasons for the Lack of
uniformity in the quality of our live
stock is the fact that many of our in
dividual farmers and breeders have
not adhered to one type or breed of
sire. The results provide a striking
example of the need of organization.
With the organized community many
advantages are to be gained. First of
all, greater interest will be taken in
the proper methods of breeding, feed
ing, etc, with the result that definite
community type will be established
and the members will work together in
maintaining that ideal. United action
is brought about in the prevention and
eradication of disease, combined ac-
ton along this line being far more Of
fective and economical than individual
effort. The good effect of combined
action on the part of the breeders of
a community in preventing the spread
of such disease as hog cholera, for
instance, can readily be appreciated.
Much can be accomplished m a sim
liar manner in stamping out conta-
gious diseases among other classes of
live stock. and by the adoption of prop
er sanitary methods further outbreaks
in the community can be avoided. A
reputation for sound, healthy stock
is most desirable and valuable asset.
