FERRALINE COCK
 WAS FIRST SOLD

It was appropriate that the first roosters sold at the'recent sale in De- mopolis should have been the Ferraline cock which brought $22o0 and the Ferraline cock which brought 5000. Few concerns have done more to attract attention to their community than have the manufacturers of Ferraline. When they advertise their product they all ways take occasion to say a good word for Demopolis, so that it is not sur prising that the men behind this con- cern took leading part in the recent cock sale.

trict meet, as Richmond had already
secured the state classic through

The Cincinnati Reds won their last
game in the south from Kansas City
and journeyed north Tuesday to open
hostilities at Indianapolis today and
Wednesday.
The Reds do not expect to have
overly much opposition in the two
games this week but Indian followers
are of the opinion that the Indianap-
oils representative lineup will put UP
a hot fight. The Reds were forced
to ride all night Monday in order to
open up on the Indians Tuesday.
The Indians were expecting Tex
Covington, Steve Yerkes and Edison
Hemingway to arrive Monday from
their home towns. Dick Gossett wired
Owner McGill that he would be on
hands Tuesday morning.
Lewis will be at his place at short.
The outfield will be a make shift af.
fair, as only Zwilling will be in his
regular position.
The Reds will line up as follows:
Groh, third base; Neal, right field /;
Daubert, first base; Rehg, center
field; Rath. second base; Cueto. left
field; Smith, shortstop and Allen or
Rariadan, catcher. Whom Pat Moran
will use as pitcher is not known. Mo
ran is carrying an extra large supply

Athletic events of all kinds will be
on the Boy Scout program this sum-
mer. officials of the City Scout organi-
zation announced Tuesday.
All Sunday-school meets that have
formerly been held under the auspices
of the Y. NJ. c. A. will probably be
Boy Scout meets this year as almost

RICHMOND MAY
ENTER CENTRAL
NORTHERN LEAGUE
Prospects Favor Admission Of
Local Team to Proposed
Baseball Circuit.

That Richmond stands a good show
Of getting into the Northern Central
Baseball league is the belief of base
ball men here.
Charles Carr, president OF the newly
organized circuit has mentioned Rich
mond as being one OF the best pros
poets for the league in case some of
its weaker members fail to go. At
present the league managers are pill
ing up trouble for themselves trying
to place the highest bids for certain
ball players that each wishes to in
clude in the personnel of his team.
As a result they are claiming that a
number of ball players will play with
their individual team while another
club claims the same players. The
league has not adopted any bylaws
that govern this condition yet and
Carr will make the rounds OF the
league towns and find out when a sat
isfactory meeting can be called to
settle this difficulty.
On Industrial Basis
He believes that number Of the
towns will drop out when they start
in action the first of next month which
will give Richmond a chance to step
in any play semi-pro ball. Richmond
has the facilities for operating one
OF the best clubs that play semi-pro
ball and has enough men to back Il
good club. 1t will be organized on an
Industrial basis and men will be en-
ployed at the factories and play Sat
urday and Sunday ball or just Sunday
ball.
Elmer Eggeneyer, president OF the
Richmond Exhibition company held a
telephone conversation with Charles
Carr, Monday night in which Carr said
he thought that Richmond would have
chance at the league without a
shadow of doubt. A meeting of the
directors will be called soon to out
line plans for a semi-pro ball club
and to make arrangements for the
st. Pittsburgh game here May Z.

simply dampen comb or soft brush
