England And Cotton.

A MEXICAN cotton growers have for alarm IN
n the movement recently revived in England to stimu-
late cotton production the colonies of the empire Brit
ish mill have decided, with the approval Of the
house of commons raise 100000 pounds for the de-
veopment of cotton growing in British domains with the
Ultimate view Of obtaining independence from the Amen-
growers It is further proposed to make levy OF
pence bale the proceeds to be used to foster the cot
ton growing industry in the colonies.
Previous efforts by England to Independence IN
her cotton supply have met with small success Britain
found the experiment too costly in the past, and it Is
doubtful if the overburdened treasury of the empire can
stand the drain which would be necessary TO put the col
ones IN position where they could compete with the
southern states which have their supremacy IN the
worlds markets because of the adaptabty OF their SOL
for cotton growing In 1918 the United States produced
90 percent of the cotton supply for England the Brit
sh colonies 80 percent and the rest Of the world 10 per
cent
No questions that England raise her cot
ton she is willing to pay the price But the price would
be more than Britain VIII care to spend for good many
years to come She would have to put out 6ouns amount
ing TO many millions Of pounds long period before
the colOnials would be in position compete with AmeT

SAMMY B0HNE is LIKE COBB
Greater Than Any Third Basen'an
That Ever Wore Coast League Uni
forn-Is Very Fast.

The Cincinnati Reds picked off a
sweet kid in Sammy Bohne if Billy
Burke's opinion of the youngster Is
true. Burke is the trainer of the Sc
attic ball club, where Sammy shows
his baseball knowledge Burke says;
"In my opinion Sammy Bohne is
greater than any third baseman that
ever wore Coast league uniform.
Why, Cincinnati got Bohne for song
in giving only $17,500 for him. He is
worth twice as much as that. I'm
here to say that in t1vo years he'll be
in a class by himself in the majors.
Why, in seven games against the YER
non Tigers he connected for is hits,
more thar some players collect IN
month. He handled 81 chances with
but one error plus - assists. Besides
all that lie ran the bases like Ty COBB
was doing q few years ago His de-
termination and speed are his greatest

GOLF GAME is MADE
HARD BY INVENTORS
Players Become Quite DisCour-
aged on Putting Green.
So Many Different Putters on Market
That II Is Difficult to Satisfy
EVeryone-Straieht Blade
Is Disappearing.

when will the inventors stop max
ing it difficult for the great mass of
golfers by inventing new kinds of put
ters?" asked a golfer who admits hav-
ing six and not being able to use any
of them effectively.
There is no department of the game
where one is apt to become diScOur-
aged so much as on the putting green.
If you are putting badly the first
thought is to get a different kind of
putter. This is the answer to why
there are so many various makes on
the market and the club that will sat
isfy everyone is yet 10 be invented.
Golfers are gradually working
around to the club with the aluminium
head, shaped something like a driver.
The old straight blade is disappearing
from the links, although quite few
good golfers still stick to the idea for
no other reason than it was this club
that they started with and a change
might throw them off
Don't get one of these thin blades
that is likely to cut under the ball
and put sort of a back spin on it or
enough Of spin to cause drag. You
will find that your ball is often short
of the hole with this putter. A straight
blade made like the old brass putter
S dangerous on the modern green be-
cause one is so likely to cut the ball,
producing a hook or slice.
There are putters with the weight
on bottom and others with the weight
at the top. Each inventor claims his
idea Of the distribution of the weight
is the best. A relic of 20 years ago is
the putter built like a croquet uallet.
Another old-timer is the putter that
looks like one of the rockers on a rock
ing chair. The inventor claims that
any sort of a line can be had with this
club. Putters in the old days. made
long and narrow, We're queer looking
affairs.

LINEMAN is RARELY
PRAISED FOR PLAYS
Credit for Winning Football
Games Goes to BaCkfield.
When In Smooth Working Order
Eleven Men Work Like Machine
and Every One Is Valuable Par
Much Depends on Center.

In almost every newspaper account
Of football games we usually find
that one or more Of the backfield men
has been featured. Hardly ever is
the guard, center or tackle given much
credit for the work he is doing.
What would happen If the line would
not hold? Then the halfbacks could
not get through for long gains. What
would happen If, when the ball is
on the five yard line, the line did not
hold? The opposing team would nat
ura'ly score.
True It is that the backfeld men
carry a great deal Of the burden of
football by no means do they de-
serve all the credit.
We speak of the eleven men as
machine. When in smooth working
order they work like a machine and
every man is a valuable part. The
center is the man on whom a great
deal depends. He must pass the bar
his position. The guards back up
the center and the tackles back up
the guards. Then. as a whole. the
five Of them block kicks, recover FUN
bles, break up plays, make openings
and do hundred and one other things
that help win games.
Not 50 long ago the ends were more
or less a part of the line. even more
than they are today Since the for
ward pass came into use, these end
men In many cases carry the ball and
In more instances than one have won
games. They are usually the fastest
men on the team going down on punts
aud breaking up end runs; but by
no means are they to be compared
with the other five lnemen when 1t
comes to getting a lot Of work and
no praise
