UMPIRE IN PLACE OF BULL
Mexican Editor Is Of Opinion Thas
Baseball Is More Spectacular
Than Scientific.

Jose Campos is the editor of the Elk.
celsior, a daily paper of Mexico City.
When in New York recently the Mexi-
can spent an afternoon at baseball
game. He thus records his Impressions
In New York Herald.
A large game of baseball was cele-
brated this Afternoon in the Polo arena
in the city of the Bronx, large ride
by train from New York city. As Is
the custom Of the United States of
North America, many Of the business
houses closed for the afternoon. so EN-.
ployees might attend the spectacle. At
least 100000 civilians, soldiers and
many women and children were pres
ent.
The pitcher for the New York city
troupe was very valiant and charming.
The baseball clothing is not as pretty
as that worn by the toreador. but the
players carry themselves well. The
game Is played with the hands, but is
not like pelOta In any respect. The OBJ
ject Is to keep the ball off the ground,
and the troupe which does so the long
est wins the game.
In place of bull baseball has an
umpire, man who does not play the
game, but who is authority of the
game. Unlike the judge of the bull
fight, he stands on the field. He is
not goaded with pixies, banderillas and
finally the sword, as is the bull, but Is
the recipient of abuse from both play
ers and the multitude seated In the
huge arena. Instead of another bull"
the crowds when displeased yell get
the hook!" The umpire Is also called
"robber" and a "big fathead."
The people at baseball game con.
tinuslly are eating or chewing gum or
smoking. But these occupations of the
mouth do not prevent a perpetual yell
ing. 1t is difficult for one knowing lit
tie English to understand the things
cried at the players or the umpire. But
l assume from the manner of express
sion that words common to the lower
classes are used.
On large board at the back of the
field Is enumerated the number of
times that each troupe drops the ball.
The troupe dropping the ball the few
est times wins the game. Unlike the
bull fight. 1t is difficult to predict which
will win. In that respect the American
game of baseball Is typical of all
things American--it is more spectacu-
lar than scientific. / think IL under
stood English perfectly and had played
baseball all my life and had not been
born Mexican should like to see a
baseball game every year on my birth
day anniversary.

PROFITS FROM SURPLUS

Two sources Of income from
dairy cattle are worthy Of con-
sideration. One is represented
by the sale of products. either
milk or butterfat; and the other
comes from the sale Of surplus
stock. Often the latter may
amount to a considerable sum,
even though the herd is COM
posed Of grade animals. The pre-
dominance of a certain breed in
q community offers many advan-
tages. A market Is established
which, because Of the available
ity Of large numbers Of animals,
attracts buyers from a distance.
especially those who buy large
conslgnments. Under such cir
cumstances al surplus stock may
be disposed OF 70 better advaf-
tage and cooperative advertise
ing also may be used effectively.

Raise Rabbits for Meat.

Rabbits, which have proved valu-
able food source in Europe during the
present war, may well be raised more
extensively in America to reduce the
drain on the the ordinary meat sup
ply, according to biologists Of the
U. s. department of agriculture. The
animals may be raised In back yards
Of cities and towns as well as on
arms.
The Belgian and Flemish giant rab-
bits are recommended for meat pro-
duction, as the ordinary tame rabbit
is smaller and develops more slowly.
Rabbits are easily kept. They eat
hay, grass. lawn cuttings and green
vegetation of many kinds.
The department has published a bull.
letin on raising rabbits. which win be
helpful to persons who wish to engage
In this pursuit.

toned, and on this account the move
ment should take place at a time of
year when the temperature of the two
points Is as nearly equable as possible.
Dairy cows should be handled under
normal conditions before and during
the trip. They should be fed and wa
tered at regular intervals, and IL any
Of the animals are In milk they should
be MIXED on schedule. 1t pays to
feed grain and hay during long ship
ment where the cows are accustomed
to these materials. Simple provisions
for the feeding of hay can be made
by stretching small mesh hog wire
along the side walls and ceiling Of
the car so as to form a wedge-shaped
feeding bunk, which can be filed with
hay in correspondence with the appe-
titles of the cattle. Grain Is a difficult
material to feed In transit In a freight
car where no special provisions are
made to prevent wastage as result
Of the tendency of the animals to
move about where they are not hal
tered In place. On long trips grain
can be carried In the car and fed ut
points where the stock is unloaded. A
competent attendant should always ac-
company the dairy cows. He should
ride In the car with the stock. as often
he can avert injury to the animals
by prompt action In the car in case
one Of the cows gets down.
Water and Feed.
Several large barrels Of water, as
well as plenty of feed should be car
ried in the car as protection against
delay or accident which may detain
the train to the extent that without
this feed the animals would go hungry
or thirsty far beyond the 36-hour limit
Sand or cinders constitute the best
bedding materials and during long
trips fresh supplies of these materials
should be placed in the car at unload.
