AMERICAS WINS
FAST lO-INNING
GAME BY 4 TO3
By Cliff Wheatley.

Before a crowd estimated by Neill
Ray, Jr., gatekeeper, to be twenty
paid admissions, and few thousand
kids below the pay as you enter" age
Captain Barney Ball and his Grey of
ball tossers of the Americas High
school tied the historic tin can to the
representatives of Montezuma High
school Friday. The final score, to 3,
tells of a rafting good 10-inning game
and both teams are to be congratulated
on the superb brand of ball displayed.
The game was all B. Balls until
the ninth when a rally by the Macon
county lads drove in two runs and the
score was tied harder than seaman's
knot.
1t came to an abrupt ending in the
tenth when after two were out via
the strike-out route Capt. Monohan of
the Cadets stepped into fast one and
startled the natives on Plum street
by FASTING it over right fled fence for
a double. A moment later he swipel
third and on a squeeze play scored.
In selecting the star hurler of the
occasion there is very little choice for
a weary sports scribe. B. Ball, for the
Reese park lads, sent thirteen of the
Monteguma swatters back to the bench
longing for the chance to locate the
pill while Anderson was forced to
oo,tant L;y,caff With Y,ipa ctr;kaOufS
Ball was batted for total of six hits
while Anderson surrender five; Balls
control was perfect and not a single
Montezuma batter drew free pass to
the first station of the Long, long,
Trail"
Monohan, for Americas, caught
t:p-top game, and his many admirers
are more than ever convinced that he
is the best catcher in South Georgia
prep circles. Query at third for the
visitors handled himself in a manner
that shows special promise.
An account of the gene wouldn't be
complete without mention of the eX
cellent work of his jumps" John Wag-
non. He called decisions unerringly,
promptly and in manner that left no
dissatisfaction with either of the
teams.
The tossers from Montezuma are the
best ball players on the field. and the
most gentlemanlT bunch off, that have
played here and Americas was mighty
lucky to get away with the long of the
the score.
The Story by Innings.
Here's the way it all happened:
FIRST INNING-Solomo, first up for
the visitors slammed one against right
field fence for two bases and scored
a minute later when Jim Maffett
swatted one over the fence for couple
of bags. Mckenzie reached first on an
error; Maffett advancing; Mckenzie
swiped second on an easy steal and
Maffet was caLght out pitcher to Gard
ner; Mckenzie died in an attempt to
steal third. Allen missed three straight
over the pan for Balls first strike
out.
Riley up first for Americas went out
Anderson to Mckenzie; Bolton was
out second via the same route; Gard
ner went out Soloman to Mckenzie.
SECOND INNING-Heath missed
three; Anderson followed suit and
Guerry made it three down when he
lined out to George Ball on first.
Webb fouled out to Guerry, G. Ball
famed, B. Ball singled to center and
King went out second to first

FARMERS JOIN
FORCES IN BIG
ORGANIZATION
Drive for Membership Starts Oct.
p, Says Bulletin From County
Farm Adviser.

P. r. Edgerton, Rock Island
county farm adviser, is sending out
bulletins upon the work Of the
Rock Island county farm bureau
and the Illinois Agricultural asso-
citation who are acting in conjunc-
ton to bring about a better or
! gaLiZation of farmers. An import
ant announcement in the commun-
ica;ion is the one that a campaign
is to start Sept. %, during which
state organizers will canvass Rock
Island county TO secure the union
of agricultural men. They are
working in Henry county at pres
ent, where it is thought that a to-
tai membership of 5000 possibly
will be secured. Extracts from
the circular letter follow:
at is, indeed, gratifying to know
that farmers everywhere are wax
ing up to a realization of the i'm
por -ance Of organization. The
state solicitors are now working in
Henry county and will come to
Rock Island county Sept. % when
we will fire the first gun of the big
campaign in COP township. Every
farmer in the county is going to
have a chance tn Lime up with the
coicrs." No ore will be slizhted.
In one community in Henry county
few farmers were uninteutionalIy
missed by the state men. These
farmers promptly called the town
ship director and said, Why didn't

They felt that they had been left
out of a good thing and they want
ed, in. Say, folks, it seems to me
that one look at the way the hog
market is being manipulated is
enough to put any farmer into an
organization that will protect his

STABLE is LEFT
IN ROCK ISLAND
Old Latin Barn Being Torn Down
Leaving Only One Building
to Bring Back Old Days.

After today only one livery
stable will grace the city of Rock
Island. The horse is becoming a
thing of the past Livery barns
are now garages.
With the tearing down OF the old
Latin livery stable on the north
side of Fourth avenue between
Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets.
only the Maucker livery barn will
be located in the business district
of this city.
A. +. DOughenbaugh of Gowrie,
Iowa, owner of the building for
about the last year-and-a-half, is
having the structure wrecked by
w. n. Mise of this city and the
lumber shipped to his farm in
Gowrie. Mr.. Doughenbaugh is eX-
pecting to build a modern brick
structure for rental, to replace the
frame building, it is understood.
The stable was conducted by Tom
Latin about twenty-five years ago.
nearly five years after the building
was erected. Since then the bus
mess has changed hands several
times. John J. Truslow, the pres
ent owner and who is selling out
today, has been running the bus
mess for the last seven months.
Henry .Roggenkamp was the pro-
prietor Of the place previous to Mr..
Truslow.
Supported Five Stables.
Several years ago Rock Island
supported five livery stables in the
heart of its business section. Today
only the Maucker livery barn at
1908 Fourth avenue remains as the
one "reminiscences of the old horse
drawn vehicle days. The present
site of the Majestic theatre was at
one time a prominent livery barn
the Campbell & Wochner garage
was until a few years ago pros
pering livery stable; the Normoyle
livery was just recently converted
into a garage; and these with the
old Latin and Maucker stables
composed the quintet of livery
barns that at one time were pop
ular hourishing establishments.

OPEN CARS ARE
TABOO; HUNTOON
PUTS EN- AWAY

No more hanging on the running
board back and forth from the
ball park. the Watch Tower or
even when riding home at night
from your daily toll.
Open cars are taboo. No more
will be purchased by the Tri-City
Railway company. Yesterday J.
G. Huntoon, vice president and
general manager of the company,
put away on the winter shelf the
six lonesome open cars which
alone remain to recall the vanish
ed day of bygone summers. The
season is closed for this year: hot
weather is nearly gone and the
cool breeze brings on the neces-
sity of putting in service the clos
ed cars.
To Buy No More.
The railway company announces
that it will not buy any more open
cars. And the only time the six
cars now on hand will be allowed
to carry passengers is in the heat
of summer when they are run out
for service at East Moline on the
Moline, Rock Island & Eastern
Traction company lines.

'Dr. Forbes, state entomoIogist,
gives Sept. % as the fly free date
for sowing wheat in Rock Island
county. 1t is well to observe this
as DR.. Forbes has studied this mat
ter for years and his statement
merits our attention.
Wheat Is Poor.
Wheat from this years crop is
at best rather poor stuff. In or
der 20 make fairly respectable seed
out Of it, it will need to be thor
oughly famed, using plenty of
wind to blow out the light scabby
grains. One OF the treatments for
smut should be given.
Up to date there have been %
different farm bureau members
who have vaccinated their own
hogs. A total of rs, 900 cubic cen
timeters has been used. The sup
ply OF serum and virus is MAIN
tanned at the Rock Island Artificial
Ice company's plant. This is ideal
storage and guarantees the keep
ing of the product in splendid con-
dition- Any member desiring TO
vaccinate can call this Office and
have the serum delivered at his
farm within two hours. Surely
this beats waiting three days to a
week as has often been the case
in the past. The serum at 81 a
bottle is another good example of
what the farmers can accomplish
by cooperation"
This vaccination is supervised
ard overseen by Mr.. Edgerton who
does none OF the actual work of
the Process.
