Places in Final Round
OF Tennis Cup Singles

Southampton, N. Y, Aug. 3D.
William T. Tilden, second, OF Phila-
delphia and T. r. Pell OF New York
won their places in the final round
of the tennis cup singles on the turf
courts OF the Meadow club here to-
day. 3Tilden, the national clay court
champion, smothered r. Lindley
Murray by a vigorous net attack in
their semi-hnal. 0-3, 6-3. Pell defeat
ed w. t. Hays, the westerner, who
beat lchiya kumagae, the Japanese,
yesterday. The score was 6-3, rs.
Tilden fought Murray at his own
game at the net. So fast and furious
IN did the Pennsylvanian execute his
volleys and smashes that the former
Californian was swept before the ir-
resistibie force of his shots. Murray
was not at his best as he had had
little tournament competitor this sea-
son. Not. once did he lead Tilden,
who made the playing all the way to
the end.
By steady back-court driving Peli
with unexpected ease mastered
Hayes. The Chicago star made the
fatal blunder OF placing the ball to
Pell's left hand in the rallies, forget
Ting that that was the strong side of
the American master Of the back
hand stroke. Pell was steady and
he never missed an opening for
pass so that he always had a safe
lead.
Tilden duplicated his score of the
morning by winning his way in the
afternoon to the final of the doubles.
He waslpaired with Vincent Richards,
who holds the national doubles
championship with him. The pair
had their smashing and volleying
shots going briskly to defeat Sgt.

Merrill Hall. The score was 6-5, 6-4

pions of Chicago, won the other semi
hnal battle. They made poor start.

Pell before they got their lob and
vollcy tactics working smoothly. Pell
stood up sturdily under the fast driv-
ng OF the western pair. Murray re-
peatedly muffed fine chances, al
.hough he made a game effort to
larry his side through. The score
was 20, GA, rs. The finals will be

are allowed to ollie off there ~ wasted
not only the feed but the same time
and care required to bring that chick
en- through the summer and to the
stage where profit begins to roll in.
after you have fed lot Of ex-
pensive feed to chicken, it is your
duty to the public as well as yourself
to see that the chicken is not wasted,
for it amounts in the end to exactly
the same thing as throwing away OF
destroying the amount or feed pre-

PROJECT FARM MACHINERY

Thousands OF dollars are lost an

hay rake stands in the middle of the
meadow, the moving machine is pull
ed around behind the chicken house,
or under tree in the orchard and II

such place where the reels are used

Shelter is usually provided for the
wagons, since wood III used in their
construction. But even iron and
steel are not immune t0 deterioration.
How many times during the spring
rush does a bolt or truss rod break
because Of weakness due to rust?
How much valuable time Is consumed
each year in twisting nuts from rusted
threads? The experience Of every one
who each year spends day making
the old plow "scour." or tries to
loosen taps in order to replace broken
parts, knows that this delay Is often
very expensive. The mower tongue
rots out and the corn planter tongue
warps I'd such "a extent that "A
straight row IL practically an i'm
possibility. And AIT this for lack of
shelter.
Shelter for farm machinery" says
o. G. Bruce, or the Maryland State
Agricultural College, is one Of the
most important farm economies.
Machinery prices are advancing stead
lily. There is a dearth of farm ma
chinery in Europe. and America must
supply what has been worn out during
the war. But the loss of Europe's
machinery could have been lessened
had not inexperienced men and wo-
men, who did not know how to care
for M, find themselves compelled To
use i'll when the able-bodied farmers
were called to war. This shows that
care il essential To long life Of farm
implements. 1t would be surprising
to know that in our own country a
year or two Of stand-stiIl in machinery
manufacture would place us in the
same position practically as the far
mers of Europe All machinery
should be placed under shed, nuts
and bearing surfaces should be oiled
or smeared with axle grease, and all
implanted exposed parts should be re-
