AND MANY RUNS FOR BOTH
TEAMS-WILL PLAY AGAIN.

The fire department boys took the
ball game from the Pensacola Elec-
trio Co. employees yesterday afternoon
at the first annual picnic for the Fire
mems Relief Fund. The game was hit
and run throughout and when the final
man crossed the plate the firemen had
% runs to the Electrics %.
q. Touart, with five times at bat,
made five hits and was the feature
batter of the game. O'Connell prob
ably saved the game for the firemen
by making a good one hand stab when
the bases were full and two out. Clark
and Touart won the prize for the
largest number of hits with Captain
kelson running a close second with a
triple and two two-baggers.

WHITMANs BEAT CASEY SECONDS
IN LAST GAME OF TWILIGHT
LEAGUE WEEK

James Benton's Whitmans were
again victorious when they defeated
the Casey seconds 4 to at East Hill
yesterday afternoon before the best
crowd of the season. The game was
interesting until the last session. The
Whitmans scored once in the first
when Roche stole home on Whites
wind-up. Until the fifth it was a
pitchers battle, when the Whitmans
got to White for three TALES.
The game YVES featured by the
catching of Charlie Geist who made
several perfect pegs to first from hard
positions. Only IS men faced Potts
Bell in the Six innings, although three
made first. These were thrown out
stealing.
j. Olsen and j. Geist hit hard and
both are making an effort to attain
batting leadership. The first official
averages will appear in Sundays Jour
nal.

Famous Woman Astronomer.

Caroline HerSchel stands out as if
protest against the theory that
woman'S gray matter is inferior
to that of man. She was the daugh-
ter of Isaac Herschel. musician of
Hanover, Germany. Her brother WI
liam came to England to seek his for
tune. Caroline followed him to Bath
In los. In time William turned his
attention to astronomy. Gaining the
favor of George II, he became the
greatest astronomer of the age. For
forty years he pursued his investiga-
ton of the henvens ut Windsor, his
sister Caroline his chief assistant.
She discovered seven comets by means
of telescope which her brother pre-
pared for her use. In l79S she pub
lished a Catalogue of the stars :"
subsequently Catalogue CT Nebulae
and Star Clusters" In 1928 the AS
Economical sOciety's gold medal was
given to her. She died at the age of
years.-Chicngo Journal.

known before in the history of the
country. Some idea of the decline In
acreage and production and conse-
Quent effect In increasing the price can
be secured from the following figures I:
In the sixteen southern states prOduc-
ing early strawberries in large guam
titles, there were in 1916, 9S,S20 acres
planted to strawberries in 1917, $4,000
acres 1918, $4,000 acres, and In 1919,
$1,000 acres From this total area. in
1918 there were shipped total of 3D.,
600 cars, principally to northern con-
Stunning markets. In 1919. there were
shipped a total of 5000 cars, or 5000
cars less than in 1916. The average
car contains 400 crates of twenty-four
quarts each. The price per quart in
1915 rangeS from cents TO 10 cents,
and in 1919, Is cents to 80 cents.
According TO the bureau of markets
there were 12,DO0 acres planted to
strawberries in Tennessee In 1918 and
S,43O acres In 1919. The average yield
per acre was estimated ut 53 crates in
1918 and 80 crates in 1919. This 1--we
tonnage of LAB: cars shipped from
Tennessee in 1915, and 1,499 in 1919.
Polk County news. [volume] (Benton, Tenn.) 191?-1983, 1920-02-12

While the greatly reduced acreage in
1919 gave an almost equal yield "a
1915. the average cash T. o. h. price for
1919 was S49I for a "a quart crate
compared with Sis received in 1918,
n which price the crop was worth con
sIdcta1ly mere tlan during the preced-
ing year.
The year 1919 was exceptionally
profitable year for berry growers sta
tisticS gathered In Tennessee berry
sections show the average profit per
acre of the 1919 crop was S;fSI,3l'
which price is based on reports OF
actugl sales made by growers IN All
berry districts of the State. The lars-
est profit reported by any Individual
was S92j.GO per acre, and the small
est profit was 500 The average yield
per acre of these reporting was 81
crates per acre, the largest yield being
1865 crates and the smallest yield being
81 crates per acre.
Considering the above statistics, ana
even making due allowance for the
greatly increased cost of production
it is seen thai there remains such
substantial net profit rs should cause
many growers to plant n strawberry
crop.
1t is possible that there will be
slight increase in acreage this year,
but cOincident with this possibility,
there has already been an increased
demand for consuming purposes. Con-

tracts are reported for berries at $3.50
tC $375 crate, which is very high
price National prohibition has caused
a greater demand for fruit juices, and
has made these juices more active than
ever before in their influence in con-
tracing this crop. Returns the past
year, and prospective returns for the
next few years, are such as to war
rant growers to increase their acreage
slightly. Farmers who have not grown
strawberries in preceding years, but IL
tend to this year, and who face q pos
sibility of not being able to secure la
Dor to harvest the crop, will find it
more satisfactory to plant only few
acres, so that the grower and his fam
ily, and perhaps a limited amount of
local help can properly harvest the
crop. Communities that have num-
Der OF farmers each planting only u
few acres but in the aggregate plant
ing 100 acres, will be able to form
cooperative marketing association AMI
thus economically market the berries.

"SYcophaht.n

Sycophant is from Greek word
which, expressed in English letters, is
written, sukophantes, meaning fig
)lahbers." In ancient days democratic
Athens passed a law forbidding The ex-
portation Of figs in order To keep down
The prices. The law. of course, was
evaded, int there were always found
mean fellows, who for reward or to
win favor with the authorities, inform
ed on exporters. They were called in
contempt sukophantes, ("tigbabbers,"
or "informcrs," as we would say.
Hence sycophant came to signify
government toady and then toady
generally.
