Say They Want a Hearing.

Both Seaton and Smith have been
pitching for semiprofessional teams in
Arkansas and Oklahoma and are being
better paid than If they were in the
Southern league. The two players, 1t is
stated, are doing everything possible to
get a hearing before the courts Of base
ball. An effort has been made to secure
a statement from the San Francisco
club which barred them from the Pa
cific Coast league Seaton and Smith
have both expressed a willingness to
sign an agreement not to enter suit
against the San Francisco club If. it
will make formal charges against them
and give them an opportunity to defend
themselves. Seaton and Smith are pos
tive that they can prove their inno-
cence Of any charges the San Francisco
club might bring
A local attorney who has been look
ing after the Seaton-S Smith interests
declares that when appealed to for
charges, in order to help the Southern
league out of an embarrassing predica-
ment, the San Francisco club informed
the emissary that there was a place
in Gahena especially fitted up for the
Southern league and that the Pacific
Coast league officials were in no way
interested in the Dixie organization

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, July S.-While
the big deal of the past week by. which
Little Rock sends Outfielder Bling Mil
Ter and Catcher Tony Brottem to Wash
lngton at the end of the season and re-
celyes a pitcher and an outfielder in
exchange is the real news, the Seaton-
Smith controversy will not down and
there are vague hints of new and start
ling, developments that will cause an
explosion.
President Allen is as strong in his de-
tense of these players as ever. He has
received letters citing number of in
cidents which caused the transfer of
players now with other clubs in the
southern league, and according to this
information these players We're brought
into the league with their employers in
possession of all the facts. President
Allen has not indicated whether or not
he will ask for an investigation and do
mand the dismissal of these players
from the Southern league. a.
Seaton and Smith, apparently barred
from organized baseball, remain in Ar
Kansas with headquarters in Little
Rock. They have steadfastly refused
to accept flattering offers from indus
trial and Independent teams which rare
recognized as outlaws. One of these Or
CARNATIONS made an offer of $3.50 "a
month to Casey Smith and, was willing
to deposit the money in a Little Rock
bank This would have given Smith an
engagement until October, but he de-
clined, saying that he hoped to get an
opportunity, to return to organized ball

THE SCORER HELPS HIM.

Over in Little Rock the official scor-
er is very liberal to the Little Rock
players, and when there is any doubt
he always gives the batsman the mar
gin. Miller always gets the close ones
and some which are not very close,
according to local fans who have been
in Little Rock to see the Chicks meet
the Travellers.
All over the league there is a ten
dency on the part or scorers to give
the home team the best of 1t on base
hits, which Is one of the reasons that
many batters fall off In the averages
when their team is. on the road for
any length of time.
There are one or two exceptions to
the rule, but the big majority of Of
ficial scorers never fall to give the home
team the best of it in the scoring of
hits.

FARM HOMES NEED LIGHTING
PLANTS
The Hens Will Help Paw the Bill

The almost startling results Sc
cured by increasing the amount Of
daylight for the hen should prove
interesting TO the people. The %
birds in the pen where the lights
were turned. on each morning at
100 a. m. have laid 1897 eggs in the
four winter months November 4,
1919 to February %, 1920. inc.,)
whereas. the % birds in the pen re-
cciving no light have laid but 1891
eggs. This is an increase Of i,i46
eggs az eggs per bird due TO the
effect Of the light.
OF course, these results would not
have been secured had not the hens
been properly fed a balanced ra-
ton. Although il is too late this
season to utilize this information,
i; can be used as talking point for
an electric light plant on the farm.
The hens will help pay the bill.
