miliar faces in new surroundings.
and the efforts OF these players TO
make good viii be watched closely
Veteran baseball managers viii tell
you that a change OF Gibbs works
wonders for the average player. New
scenery always inspires an athlete
to renewed efforts. Perhaps the club
he has been playing with has paIled
on him. Perhaps he disliked some Of
the conditions under which he was
forced TO play. Perhaps he had out
grown his usefulness as q member OF
some one team But put a new uni
form on him and give him a slap on
the back Boy, hOWdy; he'll dig up
remnants from the ole pepper barrel

BIOLOGICAL FOREMAN ASKS
RETURN OF POISON CARDS
Crandall Writes Letter Asking Aid of
Farmers Who Used Poison to Com
plete Squirrel Campaign.

That the poison cards sent out sew
eral days ago to the farmers who poi
soned squirrels, have been too slow
in coming back to him is the state
ment of Mr.. Crandall, biological fore
man for the government in a letter to
the Press today. His letter is as fol-
lows:
The strychnine orders which were
sent out from the farm bureau office
are comm in slowly.
A large number of farmers were
disappointed this year because they
could not get their strychnine as ear
ly as they wished. A slow return OF
order cards was responsible for this
condition.
If you do not return your order
card, it holds up the orders that have
been sent in and thus delays the whole
work. To procure appropriation
from the state and government these
cards must be filled out in full. Sent
them in at once If you have not al
ready done SO.

U. S. Biological Foreman.
