These off, cers, by their efficiency and valors have so amply demonstrated the wisdom of developing the officer r-atcrfcl among the enlisted men. that the system has been adopted as 2 pcrmc nent feature of the cervice.

 The Marine ct Work and Play
 Many people have the idea that the service is life Of hard work. long hours and harsh discipline. Nothing was ever further from the truth.
 There is work to be done in the Marine Corps But 1t is good,

healthful, outdoor work. There are short, snappy drills that make a man alert and lon the job" in mind and body. There are setting up exercises that take inches off a. mans waistline and put them on his chest. There's shooting on the rifle range-every Marine is trained to be a crack shot; there's work with wireless telegra phy and something of seamanship. It's work, but it's the sort of work men like.
 There must be discipline. just as there must be laws in a com runity or rules in an office or factory. But the Marine discipline IS of a sort that no reasonable man would object to.
 Life is not all work for the Ma rine. There are baseball. football. boxing and swimming for the devotees of these sports. No post is without its pool tables. There is fishing end hunting. Tor Ma rines. in their travels, go where Eame, big and little. is plentiful and game laws are few.

SCOTT'S STEAL IF

 i INNING BATTLE

Playing a mid season brand of base ball. the Phoenix Tigers and Cubs made an suspicious start or the 1920 season by battling nip and tuck for II innings. the former team nosing out a victory by a s to score.
 The work of Scott at the shortfield standing feature of the game. and 1t was his daring on the bases that gave the Tigers the victory.
 Going into the eighth inning one run to the bad, Scott worked his way around to third base with two men out. When the count one and one on the batter, he made dash for the plate and slid in safely under the throw, knotting the count al five all. Again in the eleventh inning he got to third with two men out and again he dashed for the plate. For the second time he was successful and the Tigers bagged the game.
 The Tigers started strong and in their half of the first frame, sent three markers across the counting station. They scored another in the second, and one more in the eighth. The Cubs were helpless before the siants of Savedro. who worked the first five innings. but when Sigovia took up the mound duties for the Tigers. the Cubs greeted him with an avalanche of hits. They scored one in the sixth and four more in the seventh, but Segovia frightened thereafter and. held his opponents scoreless-

 Program Runs Smoothly
 The crowd was probably the largest that has ever attended an automobile racing program here outside of state fair week and was variously estimated at from eight to ten thousand.
 The entire program went through like clockwork and there wasn't the slightest hitch anywhere. It is a trib- ute. to the promoters. Messrs. Gibbs and O'Neill, that not an accilent marred the afternoons entertainment, despite the large crowd.
 E Ample provision for the policing Of the grounds had been made by the pro- meters and the track was kept clear Of spectators at all time. The usual crowd in mid-field was also conSpic- uous by it's absence. Deputy Sheriff Jim TIoutman with a large force Of men T.oliced the track and grandStand in most satisfactory manner. The traffic both within and without the grounds was under the direct supervi- sion of Bush Anderson, head of the traffic department of the Phoenix po- lice force.
 Capt Lee Newl1irk of the high school cadets, aided by 9 cadets, had charge of the policing of the grandstand and made themselves useful aids to the big crowd

GROWING FOOD ON THE FARM; IN
THE YARD
Much Saving Is Possible by
The Use of Excellent Fertilizers
Manue-Present Conditions Waste

Special Service Department Asricultueo

In this way, II plenty of bedding be
used. practically all the valuable con-
stituents of the manure are saved,
since teaching after the manure is on
arabic land merely serves to put the
fertilizing materials where they
ought to be. In this way. too, loss
through heating. or "fire-fanging," is
avoided.
Many farmers. however are not so
situated as to make it profitable for
them to handle manure in this way
For such farmers the concrete ma
nure pit offers an ideal way OF saving
manure. Such a pit need not entail
great expense. A pit feet deep, IL
feet long. 6 feet wide, with wallis and
floors 5 inches thick, will serve the
needs of the average farm. In ground
that does not cave in, only an inside
form will be needed for such a pit,
except where the concrete extends a
few inches above the ground to pre-
vent flooding by surface water. The
floor should be reinforced with woven
wire fencing, put in after about two
inches of cement has been laid, the
section of fencing being cut long
enough to bend up few inches at
either end into the side walls. When
the reinforcing has been put in, the
remaining three inches of the floor is
laid and the forms for the side walls
set up and used Immediately. Use
one part cement. two of sand, and
four of screened gravel. A pit of
this kind is large enough to hold the
accumulation of manure on the aver
age farm until such time as it can
