Dayton here yesterday, to 3. A
brace Of boots, and Donica's double
the latter in the eleventh inning. did
the work for Gilbert's men, after they
had tied tie score in the last two
innings.
The Vets started the scoring bee in
The sixth round. Spencer opened the
inning with single, and Hobbs land
ed safely on the first corner when
Rapp lodged his pop to short. Var
ley put the bugs on their feet with a
double that scored both Spencer and
Hobbs, but both ne and Donahue.
next up, were caught on the path
ways, trying to get around too fast.
Coveieskie Starts 1t ....
The Ouakers' turn came. however,
and 1t came with vengeance in the
eighth round. Coveleskie began to
pepfest with drive that almost took
Hobbs off his tootsies, and then
Hobbs contributed to the cause Of
the Quakers by dropping Varley's toss
OF Ramps grounder that looked like
a double play.
Crouch went out. and at the same
time, Covie came in, and the score
was 2 to /. Then Mr.. Hobbs again
felt that pitiful feeling and started
a football game with Jantzen's roller
and the. score was even, two all.
DoniqA started in to get perman-
ent salary in the first of the ninth,
with a single to left. After Hauser
had sacrificed Fromholz lofted to left,
Covie also did the trick and Donica
scored
Donahue 10 Passed
Fromholz was anxious to work over
time ard passed Donahue, in the op-
ening of the Vets section Of the ninth.
After that. he and Gygli booted one
each and the Vets had the score all
sewed IN again.
It took two more rounds for the
Ouakers TO unite the contest and 1t
took Donica and his secand double
to do it. Jantzen was passed and
:, sent to second on Evers' pass Then
Dit stopped. Donica stepped in front
of Donahue, right alongside the plate.
He looked at one. and then he looked
at another, and then he saw the next
one clearly and the next time 1t was
located somewhere out near the edge
of the lot and Heinie was home, safe

of the Three-I league and comes with
a good record During the season of
1916 Harry hit for a percentage Of

Pertinent to Farmers

Every hour seems to draw thii
country nearer to war. No mar
can assure us that we will escape
for no man knows.
The year 1917 may see US shut
off from all source OF supplies
from the outer world, and de-
pendent entirely upon local pro-
duction.
Facing such a possibility it is
incumbent upon every farmer to
cultivate to the limit OF his acre
age and ability, and the town
person, who has . vacant lot
should do the same.
The time to begin is now. II
we place armies in the field, those
armies must be fed---and the pro-
ducts come from the farms.
Baxter Springs news., 1917-03-08
Food Prices of 1917

II we could forecast the future
even for the space of one year
ahead we Of this country would
no doubt make some amazing
discoveries.
One piece Of information, how
ever, Is being forced upon our at
tention without our being gifted
with any extraordinary foresight.
It is that during at least the next
twelve months there will be no
material reduction in the cost OF
living.
Already we are experiencing
war prices for foodstuffs without
being at war. What the situation
win be before another crop is
harvested is a matter to be
pondered with misgivings.
Should this country become
entangled in the war, which at
this writing seems almost inevi-
table, the situation will not be
improved.
But even with prices as they
are now many grave questions
are confronting US. Take, for
instance, that of seed for plant
ing. With potatoes wholesaling
at $3.00per BUSH, can the potato
raisers (or will they afford the
enormous outlay necessary to
plant an acreage sufficient to
surpass the crop of 1916, or even
to equal it? II the crop is not
increased we can hardly look for
q reduction in price unless the
government jails the unscrupui-
Gus food spectators.
Will the usual acreage of spring
wheat and oats be soun;, with
these grains at their present al
most prohibitive prices? Or will
the farmer figure that he can
clean up enough profit on a
smaller crop?
Even the good hovsewife's
onion patch is in danger of shrink
ing, owing to the enormous rise
in the price Of this odorous vege-
table.
To make the situation more
serious still, the indications are
that southern farmers are prepar-
ing for a record crop Of cotton.
The agricultural papers and those
Baxter Springs news., 1917-03-08

connected with the agricultural
departments have been insistent
In their advice to farmers to re-
duce rather than increase the
cotton acreage. But Is and 20
cent cotton Is intoxicating and
1t is doubtful II and southern
farmer can be prevented from
letting 60 everything else In
order to make q killing on cotton.
Such q oourss would have the
effect of reducing the South's
production Of foodstuffs even
below normal, thus further COM
plcating the food situation.
1t could be remSdied, however,
If our people would get one idea
firmly fixed In their minds, that
our lands must be made to pro-
duce more, and more, AND
MORE.
1t is the age-old law Of supply
and demand which, barring the
activities of the price boosters,
always works to maintain an
equitable balance. That the
scarcity Of an article enhances Its
value, is a law as immutable as
those governing the seasons.
1t should be the first and great
est duty Of every citizen OF this
country during the coming year
to see that every available foot
of land under his control be made
to produce some crop. Food
crops are preferable, but some
crop should be raised. Mother
earth is calling t6her children to
come and partake OF her bounties,
and we will have only ourselves
to hold responsible if we refuse.
Conservation and increase OF
food crops is the only thing that
can relieve the situation except
to jail the spectators.

Reaching the Limit

The United States has just
about reached the liriit OF endur-
ance. It must assert its interna-
tional rights or confess itself a
craven who is unworthy Of any
rights.
The "overt act" has occurred,
and at this writing there seems
no possible means Of avoiding

But one fact should prevail
above all Others. II we are forced

Campbell Eulogizes Funston.

Campbell EulOgizes Funston.
Congressman Campbell, Of this
district, was one Of the principal
speakers, in the house Of repres-
entatives Saturday when q period
was taken for honoring the
memory Of the late General
Funston.
Mr.. Campbell gave a brief re-
cital of General Funston's adven.
turous career, his trip to Alaska,
his experience in the Death Valley,
his Cuban career, rs a soldier in
the Philippines, and the capturer
of Aguinaldo, Of his work at San
Francisco, at Vera Cruz, and or
the border.
Funston was never afraid to
do a soldiers duty" declared
Campbell. HE had q genius fol
accomplishing things, and, as
stated by the gentleman from
Missouri, if he had been permitted
to 20 into Mexico with q free
hand, there would now be moth
ing said about the insurrecto,
Villa, who has given this country
and that country so much trouble
He would have disposed Of the
bandit long ago." This statement
was strongly spplauded.
"The army and the country
have suffered q great loss in hil
death, and / am sure that the
tribute this house pays to him is
a worthy one. We all join in the
sympathy with those he left be-
hind---his wife, his children, his
mother, his brothers and hil
sisters.

ny DdllS, several Mus nave D6eu re-
corded which under ordinary cOndi-
tiOns would have been certain outs.
Browns and SOx have had about an
even break in the luck on this score.
Given decent weather conditions
and the present trio of SOx outfeld-
ers will make it difficult for the enc
my to drive the ball safely in subur-
ban territory if it rises high in the
air. Jackson appears. to be. covering
more ground than ever before in his
life, and Liebold, who has been trOu-
bled in right field more than the 9TH
er two by the high wind, is able to
travel great. distances after aerials.
But Happy FeIsch in center field is
the boy to watch. This chunky per-
son received comparatively little
press-agenting last season because
of the. everyday manner in which he
went about his work. His daily rec
ord of consistency, however, has TO
cused attention on him and he is
generally regarded as one of the
most competent fly catchers in the
Johnson circuit, not even excepting
Iris Speaker.
Hap has added some fight and vo-
cal ginger to his makeup. When the
Hose are in the field his voice can
be plainly heard from deep center,
demanding that his pals in the first
line keep their heads up and in the
game. Such a spirit is fine thing
for a ball team and helps keep the
boys on their toes.
Manager Mitchell of the Cubs
seems in the humor to give Dutch
Ruether a thorough trial at first base.
The revamped left-handed pitcher is
fighting hard for the berth. To spur
him on he has the knowledge that
Mitchell is stocked up with capable
pitchers, but has no one else capable
of playing the initial sack in anything
resembling big league style.
All he needs is a few hits. That

who are more accurate in their
throwing than the usual run Of in
fieldeTs. This makes his work less
difficult and does not force him to
shift so much take weird heaves.
He needs tutoring in how to pro-
tect himself from injury. This is the
one thing that casual first basemen
have the greatest difficulty with. A
few seasons back in Cleveland they
tried to use Joe Jackson at first. Joe
could catch throws and stop ground
eTs, but he couldn't protect himself
from baserUnners tearing into the
bag and as a result was spiked and
put out of the game for some time.
Al Demaree is making bid for a
regular turn in the box and was good
against Pittsburgh for six innings.
Mitchell, following the lessons he
learned from George Stallings, pre-
fers to get four pitchers, or even
three and use them in regular order.
He sees no reason why a physically
strong man shouldn't be able to
throw a. baseball nine innings every
fourth day. So far Mitch has been
seeking the proper combination.
Vaughn and Douglass are certain
members of the quartet. He needs
two more.
Today the Cubs wind up in Pitts
burgh and go on to Cincinnati for
their first engagement of the season
with ChTisty MathewsOn's club. Five
games are carded with the Reds.
Raglan and Nehf beat Giants in the
New York opener. Kelly, former Cub,
won for the Braves in the 14th with
a single.
