My Country

Your country is all that surrounds you, all that
has reached and nourished you everything that you
have loved. That land you see those houses, those
trees, those smiling girls that pass, that is your
country. The laws that protect you, the bread
which rewards your toll, the words you exchange,
the JOY and the sadness which comes to you from
men and the things amid which you live that is your
country The little chamber where you once saw
your mother the recoections she has left you. the
earth where she reposes that is your country. You
see it, and dyou breath it everywhere! imagine. my

and your gratitude. all united under name. and

StraWStaCkS in Kansas

Kansas is said to lose between 100000 and
5000, 900 bushels of wheat each year because of the
strawstacks. The straw is of comparatively little
feed value.
Some farmers have hundred times straw
than all their stock could eat The straw is of
fertilizer until we'll rotted. and it takes four to
six years to rot Not less than 900 acres of
land it is estimated, covered with strawstacks
and made useless for farm purposes every year.
Burning these strswstacks does great damage to
the ground which it stands, as the terrific heat
takes all the life out of the ground for 100 feet or
more around the stack.-Ex.

Hoss-Shoes

The custom of using horseshoes instead of the
large fiat metal rings with which the game of quoits
is professionally played ancient when Joseph
Strut wrote his Sports and Pastimes of the People
of England" we'll hundred years ago, and,
according to traveller in modern New England,
they still used in that part of the world The
traveller tells of seeing two Maine farmers meet early
one morning in front of farmhouse. "pll play you
game of hoss-shoes,' suggested one. "I'll play
you just one game" said the other. I've got lot
of work to do today" So they began playing, and
when the traveller passed that way again late in the
afternoon they were still at it. They bad been play
ing horseshoes all day. and the farmers wife conded
to the traveller not altogether with admiration, that
they hadn't stopped for dinner.-Ex.

Knitting to a Finish

Many millions Of war heroines are returning to

fingers, armed with knitting needless are no longer
flying everywhere to help win the war; The war is
won, thanks in full measure the ardent unfinch-
ing patriotism of American women. The vast army
of knitters may not call themselves herones, but
what they wrought and endured in the world strug-
gle is vtaly part of the triumph of Justice, liberty
and civilization. 1t is interesting learn from our
War Department that the knitters did their Bit
more generously than was supposed. The fact
is not bullened in these Words yet comes in official
form. large stock of surplus knit goods is in the
hands of the War Department and is offered for
sale to foreign purchasers restriction whose pur-
pose Is to protect home industry from a sudden
flood of stock hand Most of the knitted goods is
underwear and socks which are urgently needed in
warravaged regions. Foreign governments are ev-
identity the logical purchasers now Their great
need is to get to work peacefully comfortably and
hopefully. In the world whole, there is GER
talnly no surplus of clothing food. The knitters
may rest assured that not stitch was misplaced.
The universal knitting throughout the United
States was absolutely spontaneous. 1t began and
went forward increasingly without any official order
or preliminary. 1t accomplished more than bounti-
fully all that intended. In the trenches. those
horrible trenches rendered compulsory, even for
themselves. by the superbrutal Huns. the knitted
warmth often made the difference between grim
fortitude and despair. An army almost endures as

Want the Metric System

An agitation has been renewed to have this
country adopt the metric system the standard of
weights and measures. This system is now in use
in all parts of the world except the British Ises
Australia, Canada, and the United States, and the
different and cumbrus foot pound system makes it
difficult for the United States extend it's
into other countries. The metric system, based ON
multiples of 10, is simple and easy to use in
calculations that the wonder is that it has not been
adopted before. The United States already has the
metric system in its coinage, and scale of 10 and
100 is being used more and more extensively in the
selling of commodities instead of the dozen and the
gross.-Northfeld Independent.

Baseball Chatter
Wednesday, July 16.
By F.. X.

Wednesday, July le.
The hidden ball trick comes to the fore every
little while, which some writer's to scrbble
many paragraphs about its unfarness. There are
no rules to prevent player from using it and if the
makers of the rules think it is unfair why don't they
bar it? The most scientific point in baseball is out
guessing the other fellow runner on bases should
keep track of the ball, If he does not know where
it is then it up him stick on the bag till the
sphere is located Hiding the ball is no more unfair
than to have the pitcher sneak over a strike when
the batter is unprepared Kicking on the play is on
ly an alibi for players that caught sleeping
We sometimes see player slide into first base
in running out hit ball. Why they do it is a CO.
nundrum. The baseman doesn't have to tag him and
surely man running at top speed covers ground
faster than who slides. We cannot recall any
instance where was called safe after sliding
in, unless the ball was dropped
Sailors and colored folks are known to be super
stitous but neither of them have anything on ball
players. If player goes up to the plate and pulls
down his cap and fixes his belt and then hits safely
he'll 90 through the motions again his next
time up. Some of them tap the plate lightly with
the bat while others pound it, Some swing their bat
back and forth. maybe. in hand others swing 1t
up and down. Some draw line In the dirt with
their bat the far side of the plate others on the
sde and still others just knock the dirt out of
their spikes. Swinging two three bats while ap-
preaching the plate is old hobby of many notab-
ly Ty Cobb. Not only in the park do these things
happen, but on the way to the game. team once
passed a load of empty barrels while going to the
park and all hit we'll that day the manager hired
a man to drive load by every day. Crosseyed or
hunchbacked people are an awful hoodoo and play
er will do anything to avoid meeting one The fun
ny part of it is if you ask player if he is super
sttlous he'll laugh and say NO.
We read much of this that pitcher winning
so many games and with so many strike-outs, but
the other end of the battery, the catcher, is
looked. good catcher must be a clever fellow
with lots of brains and good arm. He must
also make study of each batter to learn his weak
ness if he He must also detect just how much
stuff his pitcher has on the ball on different days
and help to use it to the best advantage. Talking
to the batter kidding him often takes the batters
mind off his work and maybe the pitcher can sneak
over strike when he turns to the backstop.
The catcher might say. Say Joe was you out to the
zoo last Sunday?' Joe says. No, why?" The catch
er: oh I thought your cage empty" Right
away that batters mind is working up some retort
toshoot back and in the meantime, Bam! Strike Tub"
