Club Batting Averages
in american League

TNY COBB is about to win the Ameri-
can League batting crown for the
twelfth time. Tyrus now is so far in
advance of the field that it is impossi-
bic for any of the contenders even to
threaten him. He has made 1874 safe
ties, more than any other big Lacquer,
out of 4S5 times at bat for rating of
$40. Ty lost six points during the
week but this mark is 90 points in
front of Joe Jackson's $50.
Bobby Veach is up there with a 347
and Sisler is only six points behind
Neach.
George Burns passed Walker and
now is the best swatsmith on the Mack
payroll. George gained five points while
Clarence was dropping two. Burns has
mark of POI against Walkers 900.
The Mackmen have strangle hold
in eighth place in club batting, their
.243 trailing the Senators by fifteen
points.
The averages, including the games
played Wednesday, follow:

GERMAN PRINCE
PUT ON RATIONS
Frederick LsopOld's Food Is
DOIed Out by Workers
Council.

BERLIN, oct. 1.-worth millions
and owner OF many farms upon which
lat cows are wont to Craze, q German
prince is being kept hungry BY the
workers councils at Ait Gleinicze,
near Potsdam. The half-starved roy
alist Is Prince Frederick Leopold
cousin Of the eX-kaiser.
The. workers, councils have decreed
slighter rations for the pFince-the
same and sometimes less than the
w0rkingman gets. Members OF the
council who ration out the food see
70 t. that no extra amount or guam
tity goes to the princes larder.
Prince Frederick Leopold Is pay
ing the penalty for a mistake made
by his manager, who some time ago
used some products from one Of the
princes farms without permission.
The councils decided upon retaliation,
despite the plea OF the kaiser's cousin
that he knew nothing OF the man
ayers action and disapproyed OF it
entirely.
The spokesman Of the workers
councils declared that defense was
"hshy." and held that il was unper-
missibIe for the royalty 10 benefit
while many poor suffered from short
rations and undernourishment as the
result OF unemployment.

Career of a Match

Matches begin life as three
foot log and undergo at least
thirteen distinct processes be
fore they reach the state in
which we use them.
First, the bark Of the log is
chopped off then the log goes
through a veneering machine,
which cuts it into strips, and
these strips in turn disappear
into the chopping machine, to
reappear as match sticks.
AS the match sticks falls out
of the choppi'ng machine into a
chute, they are sucked up thru
a large pipe to drying machines
on the floor above.
After undergoing the drying
process they are sorted and
stacked in shallow boxes ready
to go to the dipping machine.
This machine is an arrangement
of endless-chain carriers, which
pass the tips through the fire
making solution. Such a ma
chine can readily handle 1, 900, 900
matches at a single operation.
After being tipped off, the
matches are packed into paper
boxes and journey forth to
make the world brighter.

Demand for Rabbit Skins

In recent years several kinds
of fur, formerly of so little value
as to offer no inducement to the
trapper, have been raised in
price, and consequently collect
ing them has been made profta-
BILE. Rabbit pelts, which are
extensively used by hat makers,
are among these products. One
eastern concern has announced
that it will need 10000, 900 rah-
bit skins during 1919 and 1920,
and it desires as far as possible
to secure them from American
source. This is an indication of
a market which should interest
many a farmer boy. This win
ter dried, cased rabbit skins will
probably bring a reasonably
good return. They are sold by
the pound which will contain
seven or eight skins. Many
farm boys can readily acquire
in the course Of the winter large
number Of skins which will net
them a tidy sum and, in addi-
ton, they will have the pleasure
of trapping experience. The u.
S. department of agriculture will
supply any inquirer with the
names and addresses of possible
purchasers of rabbit and other
pelts.

Old Time Census Taking
Different From Present

Every census has disclosed the
fact there are more men in the
U. S. than women.
The Fourteenth Decennial Cen
sus is to be taken during the
month of January, 1920.
An enumeration Of the mines
and quarries of the U. S. was
made for the first time in 1910.
About $50 people were en-
gagged in taking the first census
of the u. S. The 1920 census
will require the services of about
900
The first census of the United
States was taken in 1890, during
the administration of George
Washington. 1t related solely
to population.
The Sixth Decennial Census,
taken in 1910, was the first one
to cover agricultural statisticsj
now one of the most important
parts of the entire census.
The statistics of the first cen
sus Of the U. S. were published
in one small volume consisting
of SO pages. The statistics of
the 1910 census required II vol
umes having an aggregate of
more than so, 900 pages.
A census Of the country's
manufactures was made for the
first time in 1910. Under the
present law, manufactures
census is to be taken in connec-
tion with the Fourteenth Decen-
NAL Census and every two years
thereafter.
The Constitution of the United
States requires that a census of
the U. S. be taken every ten
years. 1t is by this means that
the apportionment of members
of the House of Representatives
is made as to states.
1t required Is months to CON-
plete the enumeration work for
the first decennial census in
1890 In 1920 the Census Bu-
reau plans to complete the
enumeration work for the entire
country in from two to four
weeks and announce the popu-
lation figures in less than three
months from the date the enum-
Grafton work is completed.

The "rfystery" Solved

Many Snowflake people for the
past few days have been trying to
figure out why the electric lights
when first turned on in the
evening vanish shortly after
wards, but appear again later.
The mystery, however. at
last has been solved. Will Free
man recently received d motor
to propel his Wife's washing
machine and when the lights
are turned on in the evening
Will proceeds to hitch the motor
onto the juice but, alas! when
he does the lights HE themselves
away and refuse to return until
the motor is disconnected. The
people are considering bringing
suit against Will for discommod-
ing them and Will contemplates
sueing the light company for not
coming through with sufficient
power to run his machine. Mrs.
Freeman says this is the first
time in his life her husband has
shown any inclination to assist
with the family washing. Well,
why shouldn't he? The motor
does al the hard work.

MOOnIeSS Month

The month of February, 1866,
was in one respect the most re-
markable in the worlds history.
1t had no full moon. January
had two full moons and so had
March, but February had none.
Do you realize what a rare thing
in nature it was? 1t had not
occurred since the creation of
the world. And it will not Oc-
cur again. according to the COM
