BIG POTATO YIELD
Western Canada Man Raised 600
Bushels on Two Acres.
He Thinks He Did Pretty Well, but
There Were Even Larger Crops
In the Neighborhood-Live
Stock Men Prosper.

AS a by-product the yield of potatoes
on the farm of Ben Pawson of Coal
dale, Alberta, was somewhat of a pay
ing proposition. Coaldale is in the
Medicine Hat district of Alberta. Med
icine Hat is place, pictured in the
mind Of many Americans, where the
weather man holds high carnival and
when he wants to put a little life or
spirit into the people just moves tho
mercury down a few notches. The
rascal has thus given Medicine Hat
rather unenviable place on the map.
But it isn't half as bad as it is pic
tured. Anyway, Ben Pawson likes 1t.
Last year he grew six hundred BUSH
els of potatoes on two acres of land
that had no special preparation, and
only the usual precipitation, or rain,
as the less cultured would call it.
When he couldn't work at his hay or
grain, because of the damp mornings,
he gave them some attention. And
then evenings between supper and
chores and bedtime he gave them some
work. Anyway his yield was six hum
bred bushels, and he sold the whole
lot for 1885. Ben is satisfied. Still
there were larger yields than this in
the neighborhood.
If one might speak of hogs in the
same breath in which you speak of po-
tatOes, there is nothing in the ethics
of literature that would create a de-
barment. Taking advantage of this
license it will not be out of place to
state that large potato yields are not
the only feature of interest in this
new and interesting country, Amongst
others hogs are having a good deal Of
attention. Not long ago, hogs reached
the S23 90 mark on the Calgary market.
It doesn't cost much to raise a hog
and very little to bring him to a weight
Of 200 pounds. Don't cost much! Ger
tainly not. But what about the man who
recently paid $3.50 for a Duroc Jersey
Boar? That was all right. That man
knew what he was doing. He was do
ing what great many other farmers
in Western Canada are doing today.
He is acting on the old "saw," that
sit costs no more to raise good crit
ter than a poor one" That is the rea-
son that Western Canada is looming
large in the live stock world. The best
is none too good. The same may be
said of horses, cattle, yes, and sheep,
too. The very best sires and dams
OF the best breeds are purchased. And
while big prices are paid, it is felt that
the demand for pure-bred stock at
home and abroad will bring returns
which will warrant any reasonable
price that may be asked.-Advertise-

BESPEcTACLED HURLER HILL
Carmen Hill of Pittsburgh Pirates
Finds Glasses Are No Handicap
While Playing.

Carmen Hill, bespectacled hurler OF
the Pittsburgh Pirates, like Lee Mead
ows who wears 'em when In action
for the Cards, finds the glasses are no
handicap whatever. incidentally Car
men promises to be one Of the best
young right-handers in the National
league and Hugo Bezdek the Pirate
chief is nursing him with infinite care
in the hope he will be able to take his
regular turn on the mound later i'll the
race. Hill and Meadows are the only
two players in the majors today who
wear glasses while pastiming. Both
have worn them since boyhood, having
weak eyes, but neither has ever been
handicapped by the specs when field
ing hard-hit balls.

To Protect State Food Supply.

To protect the Wisconsin food sup
ply, the legislature has enacted law
which provides that the sale or deliv-
cry of bread and rolls shall be so con-
Quoted as to prevent the distribution
of contamination, infection or disease
among consumers, to protect the food
supply of the state against waste and
to bring such products to the consum-
err in as direct line as may be practi-
cable and without unreasonable delay.
No bread or rolls shall be returned
from any consumer or other purchaser
to the dealer. No dealer shall directly
or indirectly accept the return of any
bread or rolls or make any exchange
of any such products with any person,
nor shall any consideration be given
by any dealer or baker in lieu of an
exchange of such products.

Eddie Foster.

The others are Willie Keller and Hal
Chase. Willie taught Hal, and Hal
taught Eddie.
Foster is the smartest batter ever
saw. A pitcher usually can tell by the
position of the batter's feet just where
he hopes to hit, just as a boxer gets a
line on the schemes of his opponent by
watching his opponents feet. If you
see right-hand batter's feet set for
an attempt to hit to right field, you
can pitch fast inside, and nine times
out of ten he will pop up"

predicted that 1919 would find some
body else filling the shoes of the great
Zim at third base for the Giants.
New York scribes led the gang who
expertly pointed out that the great
one was on the. skids; that his legs
were growing stiff and his throwing
arm turning to glass. Then they start
ed picking out a soft spot for Heinie
to light. Some chose first base for him,
and the ones who were less hopeful
relegated him to right field, just as
though John McGraw would think for
half a second of displacing a crack
young player like Ross Young.
Heinie kept his pace through all
the long winter of 191S-19, alternating
in the Bronx and saying nothing. But
when the time rolled around for con-
tracts to be signed Zim visited the
Offices of the Giants, accepted terms
without a whimper, and calmly told
McGraw that if he had ordered new
third baseman he'd better cancel the
order.
When the Giants entrained for
Gainesville to start spring training
the veteran Tim was very much in evil
dence. He got into a uniform and
started saving wood in his own way,
taking his time and working hard to
get into shape. Eight hours work a
day in a Jersey shipyard during part
of the winter had not done thinner
man any noticeable harm, but like
most of the veterans, Tim rounds into
shape slowly, and, like most athletes
of an aggressive nature who have a
touch or two of temperament, Tim
didn't give a tinker's rap what any
body thought about it. "Lettem try
displacing me at third base and there'll
be a funeral for somebody" was the
way Tim looked at it.

Veteran Has Stood Strain OF
Eleven Seasons With Majors.
Prediction Of Various Scribes That He

Rounding Into Form.

After a player has stood the gait in
the major leagues for eleven years he
is labeled sail in" the first time he
shows a sign of slipping.
This was the sort of 'rawsberry"
handed to Heinie Tim in 1917, even be-
fore he got himself into the limelight
in the worlds series by chasing Eddie
Collins home in that now famous
Marathon of 60 feet, which was
promptly pointed out as a one-reel
thriller and given the tide "Pm Fast
er Man Than You Are, Heinie Zim."

$50 GOO for teachers, Increase.

Much of the work of adjusting the
salaries of teachers has been worked
out by Regent Clough Gates, Superior,
the newly elected president of the
board. The legislature appropriated
$4,000 for increases in the salaries at
the normal schools for the coming
year. Of this sum about $4,000 was
available for increases of normal
school teachers, BY reducing some Of
the faculty work and by consolida-
tons it has been possible to save over
$4,000 additional. which can be used
for increased teachers salaries.

UNIQUE TRIPLE PLAY

That triple play in a recent
Cleveland-St. Louis game was
rather odd and deserves detail
ing. In the fourth inning, with
the bases full, Gerber hit a fly 80
Wood, on which Sisler scored
from third. Woods throw was
intercepted by Chapman, who
found Jacobson and Sloan wan
dering around off bases, and
both runners were retired, what
should have been one out thus
resulting in three.

BRILLIANT DOUBLE PLAY

Ross Young, playing right
field for the Giants, pulled off
brilliant double play in a recent
game against the Phillies. Hogg
was on first and Cady on third,
whenWhitted hit a fly to Young.
Hogg thought Cady would try to
score and that Young would
throw home, so he lit out for
second. Cady held his base,
Young threw to second ahead of
Hogg, and the latter was caught
between first and second. He
turned back to first. Doyle
threw over Chase's head at first.
Young raced in, got the ball and
tagged Hogg as he came into
the base.
