governed the big series. Under the
new plan, the official figure that the
members OF the winning club will re-
celve is close 70 $4,000 each, while the
, members of the losing club will get
IN the neighborhood of $4,000.
The greatest total receipts ever
taken in at the worlds series was in
1912, when the Giants played the
Boston Red Sox. This series of
eight games drew q total gate Of
$3.50, 449, and the players share was
Sl4f,oI2.2S. This was not the largest
players pool, however, because in
1916, when the Red Sox defeated the
Brooklyn club, the players share
reached 1852, 88S.58, which is the
record of the classic The players
share IN this series reached such
high figure because Of the unusually
large crowds at the games played at
Braves field in Boston. There was
ar attendance of 41,373 paid admis-
sions in the second game, while in
the fifth game Of that series, a rec
ord figure for attendance at a worlds
series contest was established, 1880
spectators seeing the game. The
players, however, did not share in
this game
Up to that time, the record attend
ance at the series was at the opening
game between the Giants and Ath-
letics at the Polo grounds in 1911.
At that game 38,281 spectators paid
TO see the game. While there have
been large crowds in the Polo
grounds at Army Navy football con-
tests, this 1911 figure is the largest
attendance that has ever been offici-
ally reported in the Bush stadium.
After the division Of the big pool
between the Brooklyns and the Red
Sox in 1916 baseball officials decided
that the series had grown to such
great proportions that changes
should be made to meet the new con
ditions. The experiment made last
season was not successful because,
on account of the war, the series did
not come up to normal conditions. If
1t had, however, it is doubtful if the
experiment would have met with the
approval of the players.

The club owners and players of the
two major leagues are now consider
ing a new plan for the division of
the worlds series receipts in the fall
and it is expected that the national
commission will adopt the new plan
within the next few weeks. ] asst
years scheme of permitting the first
four clubs to share in the receipts
was only an experiment, and al
though favored by several National
league club owners, it is likely to be
abandoned. 1t was the idea Of John
X. Tener. former president of the
National league, to give this plan a
one years trial. AS it did not prove
satisfactory, the leagues will now try
a new plan
The American league has gone on
record as favoring a return to the
old conditions governing the series,
that the entire sum allowed for the
players go to the members of the
two competing clubs in the classic
The National league favors a cur
tailment of the share for the mem
bers of the competing clubs, so the
result will probably be a COM
promise.
ne plan, which is likely to meet
the approval of the club owners and
players of both leagues, provides
that the players pool-consisting of
about go per cent cent of the receipts
Of the first four games-will be split
so that rs per cent of this pool shall

600, 900 tons) sold and 1,9 per cent a.
600, 600 tonsl used for other purposes,
most of which was for bedding. The
yield Of dry stOver, as estimated, varies
from / to 81 tons per acre, with the
average close to 3 tons ner acre. The
estimated value is about 81 a ton
The disposition of corr slower in the
United States Is very similar in char
aCter to the disposition of straw,
though differing somewhat in degree.
while SIS per cent of the tower is
utilized to live stock, however, it is estt-
mated that at least 35 per cent is
wasted. Straw is burned to the extent
of IS per cent, while only 81 per cent
of the tower is disposed of in that man
ner. Straw sold amounted to 7.8 per
cent, while only &c per cent of the
stover is marketed. This Is to be ex-
peCted, since straw is more easily han
died in marketing. About II per cent
of all the straw is used for bedding,
while less than 2 per cent of the slower
is so used.
1t is needless to say that burning the
slower is a great waste, although 1t
seems to offer a quick and easy method
of cleaning the ground preparatory 10
blowing. This system is most largely
practiced where the corn is snapped, or
husked, in the field, leaving the stalks
standing.
In some sections Of the United States
cattle are wintered with slower as the
sole rOughage, supplemented with a lit
tie grain. Breeding cows or stockers
will winter nicely on slower II oat
straw, together with a small quantity
Of either c~ottonseed meal, linseed-oil
meal, or corn, The meal, when fed
without other grain, should be fed in
the cake form, preferably of nut size,
When fed in that it is not lost
by dropping through cracks or by be-
ing blown away, and is not spoiled by
saliva or rain.
In preparing stoVer for feeding pur-
poses, cutting and shocking under gen.
eral conditions involves less la than
shredding. and the waste is about Off
set by the labor factor. Chopping or
%shredding increases the palatability
and reduces the storage space for hous-
ing the crop, but the labor involved
greatly increases the cost of prepare
available on the farm, s~hredding or cut
ting is to be recommended. Dry corn
stover may be shredded or cut and put
into the silo If sufficient water is
added. The waste is greatly decreased
in this manner. and the resulting feed
has been used successfully by some
farmers.
The total value of the slower. pro-
duced in the United States in 1914 was
about $4S6, 1857, 900. Almost per cent
as stated above, or about $14,757,O ol
worth of it was burned. This waste is
! astonishing when n considers the
feeding value of the material thus de-
stroyed. To utilize the wasted straw
and slower by feeding to cattle would
of course, involve the use of large
quantities of concentrated feeds.
