It is too much to expect a green
catcher to have all these requisites.
It is impossible for him to know the
weakness Of batters he has never
seen before.
Dilhoefer is out temporarily be-
cause Of an injured wrist. He hurt it
last year playing ball, and again this
winter. The bones are not broken,
but are badly jammed.
Mitcheil's present plan for the out
field is to start Mann, Williams and
Wolter as regulars, with Max Flack
as first relief man. Wolter has been
hitting a trife better than Max so
far. But this plan is subject to re-
vision and is apt to be upset Cy Viii
hams had trouble with his batting
eye during the latter part of the 1916
season, and was practically helpless
before a good left-handed pitcher.
Flack was considerably more effec-

Douglass and Perry tried to pitch
against George Stovall's club and
were sadly bumped. That is to be

Vic Safer hit a home run.
If Swede Risberg, the California
infeld recruit, lands a regular Job
with the White Sox it will probably
be at third base and Buck Weaver
will return to his old post at short.
If Risberg lands it will be because
more batting power can be put forth.
The new combination could not
maintain stronger defense.
Weaver is a remarkable infieIder,
no matter where he is played. In the

CONSERVATION WORTH WHILE

Will some one please start war
campaign for the conservation of hu.
man energy! Every good American Is
striving to save food and other natural
resources and to eliminate waste Of
these. But how many of us are trying
to eliminate waste of personal energy
through unnecessarily laborious meth.
DDS, or loss Of some energy through i'll
health?
When we realize that before this war
is over, the nation will have use for
every moment we can spare from our
ordinary occupations for Red Cross and
similar patriotic services at home, tho
conservation of health and human en-
ergy become q patriotic duty.
The housekeeper who let's the little

who uses automatically controlled cook
ing devices, will have more time to aid
her Red Cross chapter, and, besideA
she will be in better physical conditioa

PRIZE FIGHT BETWEEN

At 1920 Saturday night, Art john

ed the ring at the Eagles hall and was
given rousing greeting by many OF
the local sports and the fight fans
from all the surrounding country. Joe
Rivers, champion of Company F. fol-

applause, was decidedly the favorite.
Referee Weirick made the formal in
PRODUCTION and for the first half of the
encounter the pride of Company F. was
unquestionably leading the game at all
times, but johnson was conserving his
forces and watching for an opportune
time to land decisive blow.
Rivers had lost some of his "pep"
and in the 18th round went down under
powerful left on the jaw. Referee
Weirick toled off the ten counts and
the game was ended.
Joe was game fighter and the fact
that he lost the battle does not lessen
him in the eyes of the local fans at tho
arena.
johnson is now undisputed champion
of the western slope and will have to
look to other fields for a match Tho

Triumph Cotton Most Dollars 
 Per Acre
Tested by U. of A. Experts. Where to Obtain Planting Seed

l In an effort to help Arkansas farm CTS select the best variety of cotton to plant this year the Experiment Station of the University of Arkansas at Fay etteville has published for free distri- button Circular No. 29. It gives re- suits of tests of many varieties of cot ton grown in 1916 in Arkansas, Drew, Faulkner, Jefferson, Lee, Pulaski and Sebastian counties under the direc- tion of the Agricultural Extension Division of the State University. The average of these cooperative tests of 15 to 25 varieties shows that on the basis of the money value of both seed and lint, Triumph" cot ton ranked first of highest, producing 9 general average for all sections, both hill and bottom land, of $97.13 per acre.
 This is only a verification of the oftheard assertion that "Triumph cot ton makes more dollars and cents per acre than any other cotton grown" Triumph is generally conceded the very best cotton for boil weevil sec- tions. It is an extra early, large boil, five-lock, dwarf stalk and storm proof. Will remain in field all winter with comparatively no shedding. Almost all Southern experiment stations give Triumph cotton the highest percent age of lint yield, often running on hill land from 38 to Az per cent. It is also among the highest yielders per acre.
 ! William Brooks of Grady, Ark, is an enthusiastic grower of Triumph cotton, and is probably the only ex- elusive grower of the true Mebane variety in the state. He keeps his cot ton standardized by growing a special seed plot each year planted with the purest bred seed.
 l He has grown no other variety on his plantation for years, and has rec ords showing production on the same
 land of 1A to bales per acre for three successive seasons.
 This grower claims that it pays big to use we'll acclimated seed, as they give greater yield and longer staple, on rich land 1 Is to 1 3-16, whereas the Texas import the first year pro- duces about to 1 1-6.
 l William Brooks has now bout. 40 tons of this Triumph seed for sale in the hands of his distributors, the Hammett Grocery Company and c. H.
 Triplett of Pine Bluff, Ark.
 This seed is we'll acclimated, care fully ginned, redeemed sacked, stem ciled and from cotton that yielded gen.
