FIRM AFTER CONTRACT
FOR SUDAN GRASS

In receipt Of reports from eX-
perts that the Imperial Valley
is an ideal place for the cult
walton of field seeds, the Ell
Centric firm of Rath & Marshall
today announced that it was on
the market for contracts cover
ing 800 acres of land for the
growing of Sudan grass seed.
AS the eastern markets are
giving preference to Imperial
Valley-grown seed, the local
firm will pay from $50 to 500
for the seed grown under con-
tract. AS the demand in for
eign markets keeps constantly
growing, the grower or planter
is assured of ready market for
his seed crop.
AS an inducement for ranch
ers to take advantage of their
offer, Messrs. Rath q Marshall
will furnish the necessary seed
from an experiment station at
cost and will sign contracts
which will guarantee the farm
er an opening in new profit
bearing field.
The firm members, who are
experts on horticulture, declare
that besides the amount dumped
into the lap of the farmer for
the seed, he will gain hay crop
equal in value to alfalfa and a
volunteer crop this fall which
could be used as pasturage for
sheep and cattle. They also
state that the grass can be cas-
lily eradicated for the growing
of other crops.

That Summer Straw

NEW YORK. Mar. Makers Of
mems straw hats profess to see
no ground for the belief enter
tanned by many retailer haBer-
dashers that the prices Of the arti-
cles will be cheaper during the
coming season. W. ]. Dixon, a
member of the National Associa-
ton OF Mems Straw Hat Manu-
facturers Of America, in speaking
or the matter. said:
I do not understand why the
retailers are laboring under the
impression that straw hats will
be cheaper during the coming
summer. In the first place, II h
necessary to make contracts for
the materials a year in advance.
At the time the armistice was
signed the manufacturers had
either contracted for their ma
terial up to next July or had al
ready received a large part Of II.
Another important factor Is the
question Of wages, which have
continued to advance.
Most OF the hat makers. also.

YALE NINE START
MAY MAKE RECORD

NEW HAVEN. Conn, March 7.-One
Of the first records which William
Lauder, Yale's baseball coach, expects
to break this season is getting his
squad out of doors at an earlier date
than ever before. 1t is possible that
before the close of the present week
the players may be taken to Yale
Field for batting and for outfield
practice, although the diamond will
not be dried sufficiently To allow in
field work for perhaps another fort
night.
1t is Yale tradition that IL a base
bali team can have a week If outdoor
practice before leaving college for its
Easter trip, the season is we'll ad-
vanced. Indications point at present
to fully half a month OF outdoor
practice during March.
Lauder has had the squad at work
in the Yale cage for two weeks. Here
there is ample room for batting prac-
tice and for infield work. The pitch
ers have bean limited to straight balls
and no attempt at strikeouJs has been
made.
Lauder has already made several
changes from the positions in which
number Of players have heretofore
been used. JEFF Sanderson, the Iank
first baseman of last seasOH, has been
shifted to the catching squad, al
though Cal Holmes. backstop last sea-
son, is still in college and is in fine
form. Sheehan, the former Andover
star. and Franklin; Of the former
freshman team, combine to make the
catching squad unusually strong.
Childs, another prominent candi-
date for first base, is being tried out
as a pitcher. He has terrific speed,
and is acquiring control and good
curves.
