considerable statistical information
for the state as whole and by coun-
ties and no surveys have been avail

bureau every five years. The funds
appropriated to the Immigration De
partment for the biennial poriod were
not sufficient to enable it to collect

and towns for making the necessary

AS result Of the experience Of
county assessors this year in collect
ing agricultural statistics under the
recently enacted law the State Immi-
grafton Department, which prepares
the blanks on which the statistics are
gathered, has decided to make num-
Der of changes in the blanks for next
year. It has been found that most of
the mistakes made this year resulted
from making entries under the wrong
heading. as the blanks are large and
the lines that must be followed are
colored line ruling will be followed
next year which will make it easy
for assessors and their deputies to
follow the proper lines. both across
the blanks and from top to bottom.
1t has also been found this year that
with the blanks now in use it is i'm
possible to obtain accurate informa-
ton regarding the less important
crops. such as tomatoes, garden peas,
flax, snap beans and others that are
grown only in restricted localities.
Special blanks will be furnished next
wear for gathering information re-
yarding these crops which are grown
only in restricted areas. Reports
from all parts of the United States
indicate that no state has obtained
better result in the collection of agrl-
cultural statistics upon the first at.
tempt than Colorado did this year and
an effort will be made next year to
bring the report as near as possible
to perfection All assessors did ex.
ce,lent work this year and few OF
them obtained as complete reports
as it will ever be possible to obtain.

OLD LEAGUE SEEMS DESTINED
TO BE GOVERNED BY POLITICS

That acceptance OF the managership
of the st. Louis Nationals by Branch
Hickey makes a factional fight in
the National League inevitable is the
belief prevailing in we'll informed
circles of the old circuit. Mr.. Hickey
is the second president of a National
League club to become n team man
ager. The first was Fred Mitchell,
who as manager was also vested with
executive powers. John ]. McGraw,
manager of the New York Giants,
was made vice president when that
club was recently sold by the Brush
estate to a syndicate of which Nc
Graw is a principal. Thus three men
in executive positions are now barred
from participation in regular sessions
of the senior organization by reason
of a provision in the constitution
which prohibits managers from such
meetings. Mitchell was the first who
tried to pry an entrance into league
meetings. Failing at the annual meet
ing last December. another attempt
was made at the recent joint confer
ence between the National and Amer
lean leagues in behalf of the Chicago
and New York holders OF dual posi-
tons, This also failed. The league
divided upon the question. st. Louis

President Hickey in agreeing to man
age the team of which he rs president,

PIRATE STARS Baking
Five Players, Backbone of Team,
Demand Salary Increases for
Coming Season.

PITTSBURGH. February SIT was
learned that five of Barney Dreyfuss
best players. Cooper. Carey. South
worth, Cutshaw and Cation. had band
ed together for a raise in salary ana
had agreed not to sign until every
man has been advanced over the SAL
AIRY paid him last year. These men
being the epitome of the Pirate
strength, IL means that the Pits
burgh owners are going to have trou-
bile before the season opens
II is well known that Cooper would
like to play in New York. and he VIII
not sign with the Pirates except at
big increase. Carey. 1t is runored. Is
offered the same salary as last year,
but he is of the opir'on that his work
entitled him to a raise.
Oficials of the Pirates say that Man
ager Baker of the Upland club was
biuffing when he announced the sign
ing of Billy Southworth. the 1913 bat
ting champion.
Southworth's Pirate contract was
not mailed until three days ago, sew
eraI days later than the date on which
he is credited by Baker as having re-
turned il because the terms did not
suit him.

February Is and %, respectively. Ten
tative plans also have been made for

time before the Yale game.
The hockey squad will maze trips
to the Brooklyn Ice Palace twice
week until the season closes for prac-
tice, and will hold practice on Lake
Carnegie whenever the weather per-
mits- This will give them an advan-
tage over Yale and Harvard, as they
will become accustomed to the Brook
Ign rink.
Since Princeton has not had an Or
ganiZed hockey team for two years,
this seasons squad will be composed
almost entirely of new men. F. j. Rue,

FULTON IS SCORED
BY JACK KEARNS
Dempsey's Manager Denies
Story of Fake Fight; Blames
PIaSterer'S Handler.

NEW YORK. February SACK
indignant at the charges made by
Fred Fulton in a statement made in
San Francisco Saturday. to the effect
that he, Fulton, was "double-crossed
in his bout with Dempsey at Harri-
son Park, n. J., July % last.
There is not n word of truth in
what he says about Collins fixing it
with Dempsey for an exhibition
match" says hsarns. 1t may be pos
sible tina. Collins had TO tell Fulton
his 'ferocious fighter into the ring.
but so far as Dempsey and myself
are concerned there was not a syl-
liable uttered as TO a fake bout.
'Dempssy's consistent record of
quick knockouts is proof that he
record is full of queer affairs. Fulton
tried TO leave the ring three times
during his bout with Carl Morris at
Canton, Ohio, and his seconds had to
drag him back in order to prevent
him being disqualified.
This statement by Fulton was
cooked up by a new manager OF the
piastereT in order to boost his depre-
ciated stock in the east. No one who
saw the bout at Harrison will believe
IndL there was any eAnlDlttOu WORN
on the part Of Dempsey. 1t is true
that Fulton was cross ed but it was
a right cross TO the jaw
IF Fulton thinks he can beat Demp
sey, I'll tell You what well do. Wen
agree to another match before July
4, the date mentioned on which Will
lard will defend his title for the first
time in a championship battle.
Dempsey can stop Fulton any day
in the week. and il Fred doesn't think
that he can, he should step right up
and he will get the chance.
Il don't know whether or not Demp-
sey will meet Billy Miske in TWEEN
ty-round bout in New Orleans. We
have named our terms to Promoter
Dominick Tortorich. If he doesn't
meet them, there will be no match.
Jack would surely stop Miske in a
twenty-round bout
But don't you think for a moment
that Fulton will take on Miske if
Dempsey doesn't. Fulton is afraid of
Miske and doesn't want another meet
ing with him"

Is the catcher's shinguard an abso-
Lutte necessity in base ball? Offhand,
as you recall the way foul tips bounce
off the bat, you would reach the con-
clusion that the shinguard is most
necessary part of the catcher's para
phernalia. Once upon time. and in
those days the ball was just as hard
as II is now pitchers threw just
about as speedy as they do now, and
foul tips whizzed off the bat in the
same manner, catchers managed to
get along without shinguards. OFTEN
nasty bruises would result. but the
catchers of the past managed to be
back of the plate regularly. despite
the many foul tips stopped by the
lower limbs.
While a great many of the fans do
not know it. most infielders wear
heavy felt pad under their stockings.
which extends down along the shin
bone. Infielders who have to ham
die all kinds of throws around the
bases, at second and third in pa tic
ular, are always in danger of being
badly spiked. Often l have seen the
spikes cut through the pad, and only
slightly scrape the leg, whereas
very serious injury might have 9TH
erwise resulted. AS a matter of fact
the Shortstop and second baseman
are constantly facing twice the dan
ger of the catcher. as to the posi-
bility of being spiked.
AS a matter of fact the umpire is
in greater danger from foul tips than
the catcher. Following the age of
progression, | now wear shinguards
under my trousers, similar 20 those
worn by the catcher, only CONSIDER
ably lighter. For years, however, l
worked without any leg protection

now and then, We managed to weather

Rounding Up Players.

However, the New York manager has
foregoue vacation in order TO round
up his players, and will begin this
week to get in touch with any who
have not been fully satisfied with their
new contracts. He does not anticipate
much difficulty. This is the season
when players make demands, but few
complaints have been heard, and Nc
Graw expects to sign all his men be-
fore the end OF the month.
Brooklyn is regarded as having
profited by the trade with Cincinnati
by which Jake Daubert went to the
Reds for Shortstop Kopf and Outfield-
er Griffith The Dodgers have long
needed capable shortstop. and of the
many men tried out at that position
by Manager Robinson none has been
entirely satisfactory. Kopf should
capably fill the weak spot in the
Brooklyn infeld. while Griffith ia a
steady IL not brilliant outfielGer.
Manager Robinson, however, is also
waiting on the Chase case to complete
his plans, since he now needs a FIRST
baseman. Should he get Holke from
the Giants he will have the strongest
club he has piloted since he won the
pcBnant In 1916.

clubs. Chicago and New York. For
political reasons, If for no other. al
though there is every indication that
Hermann considered it an act of JUS
tice, the Cincinnati club owner voted
with st. Louis, New York and Chi
cago.
Will Play Politics.
The lamentable fact of the fractional
fight is that there seems no imme-
date prospect of a compromise and
that all of the National Leagues leg
islation will be governed by political
motives rather than for the organ
ization's gncd and the welfare of the
game. Philadelphia, Boston. Brook
lyn and Pittsburgh are not expected
to favor the adtnittance of manager
presidents to league meetings. Ex-
cept for specified sections that re-
quire unanimous consent the constitu-
tion of the National League can be
changed only by three-fourths vote.
Therefore. before managers can hope
to gain an entrance into the Nation
essary for the faction favoring such
action to muster six votes. Even
should Boston go over to the other
side, it is highly improbable that
Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Pitts
burgh would accede to the wishes of
the other five clubs. Altogether il
looks as though the National would
be enlivened by the same brand of
politics that prevailed within its
councils decade or more ago.
