The Railway Express barely emerged
winner in the first game by the score
OF 2 TO /.
When two runners were on base for
the Express team and two runs needed
to win. Beatus hit sharply to third
which II. A. Colbert tagged, but could
not field and Cleary dashed for the
ball and threw to first to throw out the
runner inasmuch as there were two
down. The pill reached there late, how
over, and in the meanwhile two fleet
footed athletes had raced owe the plate
with what proved to be the winning
tallles.

The second game was another hard
one for the Taxi boys to lose. The
Park Taxi boys hit in three runs as
did the Choctaws, however, the fatal
fourth inning proved the undoing of
the Parks when Stewart pulled up at
second on a juggled high fly at third
base. He later stole third and scored
on Terry's infield hit. Mullikin and
Hays fielded well for the winners while
Lawhorn hit we'll for the Taxi boys.

Hogs still continue to go down, yet
you have not heard of anyone pro-
posing to reduce the prospective hog
crop. Why should similar effort be
made with cotton? Perhaps there are
many who remember that few gar
dens were planted in cotton. However
what we may say or do, the big thing
for each farmer to do is to grow bal
anced system of crops for his par
ticular farm and locality. The first
essential in conforming to the above
standard would be to produce as much
food and feed as he possibly can on
his own farm. Then grow variety
of money crops, and everything else
will take care of itself. This is not
theoretical farming that we are dis
cussing. We can name good examples
here in this county that have money
to lend, and a good credit wherever
they are known
