BY WILLIAM A. BRADFORD.

The true enjoyment of life is secure
iy anchored to the existence of a group
of sentiments which are wrapped
around every event In life. One OF the
limestone Of the most powerfui-of
these groups is that which Is para
mount in the establishment of q home.
A home which Is not built upon the
foundation of such a group of senti-
ments is no home at all. 1t is unfor-
tunate that very often the establish
ment Of a home involves the consid-
Grafton of conditions other than those
Of comfort In wholesome surroundings.
The man of the house must be near
to his work or the cost of land Is pro-
hibitive where the surroundings are
best. These things must, Of course,
be given precedence In some cases.
No matter what enters into the Sc
lection of the place OF building, too
much care cannot be exercised In plan
ming the home for comfort. Fine SEN
tlments are not ordinarily associated
with uncomfortable surroundings. The
money which Is spent purely for the
purpose Of increasing the comfort Of
the home is sure to bring returns which
are inestimable in terms Of cash. Let

very effective, its appeal probably rest

colonial style of architecture which
has become SO popular during recent
years. This suggestion is carried
through the entire design and Is one

PROTECTION FOR HOGS

To protect your hogs from
tuberculosis and TO make sure
that your feed will be turned In
TO meat instead of fertilizer:
1. See that all milk, especially
all skim milk from the creamery.
Is pasteurized or cooked before
1t Is fed to the hogs.
2. Keep your hogs from fol-
lowing dairy cattle. unless the
cattle are tuberculin tested.
Keep them out Of the COW lots
and barns, and keep dairy drain
age out Of hog lots. Hogs can
follow steers without much dam
ger.
3. Give your healthy hogs q
chance to keep healthy. Give
them clean, well-drained lots
and plenty of fresh air, sunlight
and clean water. Shelter them
in well-lighted and ventilated,
sanitary hog houses. Keep the
houses clean and use plenty OF
whitewash and disinfectants.
If there was tuberculosis I'm

to get rid of that herd, especially

PHIL DOUGLAS CUTS
OUT ERRATIC PLAYS
Joe Tinker Makes Valuable Pitch.
er Out of "ShuffIin' Phil"
Manager Found Him in Midst OF One
of His Celebrated Stunts of Scat
tering Red Paint and Sent
Him to Minors.

ssShuff1in' Phil'' Douglas has arrived
at last in the class of valuable pitch
ers.
He broke into professional ranks at
Rome, Ca, in the old Southeastern
league in 1910. The next year he was
star with Macon and the White Sox
looked him over in the spring of 1872,
finally sending him to Des MOines. The
next year Comiskey took another peep
at Douglas, but he finally landed with
San Francisco club and, because OF mis-
erratic ways, was released to Spokane
in July, 1913.
In 1914 and 1915 Douglas tried on
a number of new uniforms. He was
transferred to the Reds from Spokane
in the fall Of 1913 and reported to
them the following spring, only to be
sold to Brooklyn and then sold to the
Cubs by the Dodgers before the season
closed.
In the spring of 1916 Joe Tinker ar
rived at Tampa, Fla, with his Cubs on
the Weeghman Special to find Douglas
there ahead of him. And Phil was in
the midst of one of his celebrated
stunts of scattering red paint around

and finally drive him beyond the Rhine
and TO ultimate surrender. The Inn
preston became deep-seated among
those who have studied the war that
tho brave EngIishmen and Frenchmen,
weary of four years warfare, needed
just what the American troops could
give them for the necessary dash and
hustle to beat back the Germans and
to start movement which means ulti-
mate success for world civilization.
Consequently all official Washington,
and particularly those who have given
close attention to everything pertaining
TO the war, were very much gratified
and really felt that American troops
had performed that which was expect
ed of them.

ITALIANS NOW PLAYING BALL
National Game of This Country Has
Been Taken Up in ItaIy-Big Aid
in Training.

One of the curious effects of the war
is the international interest which has
been aroused in American sports.
Italy apparently is the most recent vic.
tim of the baseball game, according to
DR.. Felice Ferrero, director of the
Italian bureau OF information in Wash.
ington. Football, as played in Ameri-
ca, as well as the national game of this
country, also has taken hold of the
popular interest in Italy.
The Gazetta dello Sport, one of the
most influential sport journals of that
country, is raising a fund for the pur.
chase of baseballs, bats and footballs
and the distribution of prizes among
the soldiers to stimulate competition.
General Pennella, commander Of the
Second Italian army, in a letter to the
Gazetta dello Sport, says that football
and baseball games are Of inestimaNe
value in the training for war.
