START THRASHING
IN BROWN COUNTY
NEARL Y ALL RIGS IN THIS VI
CINITY IN FULL OPERA
TION NOW.
SOME DAMAGE D ONE BY BLACK
RUST. MORE RAIN NEEDED
FOR CORN.

Threshing commenced in many
places in Brown County during the
week just past and this week nearly
all rigs in the vicinity will be in full
operation. Weather conditions we're
ideal for the harvest in Brown county.
Rye and oats were nearly all cut by
the end of the week and with another
week of good weather, wheat will be
in shock.
Part Of the grain was hit by black
rust during the past three weeks.
1t was believed that the season had so
far advanced that little or no damage
would be done to the grain from this
cause, but the black clouds which rise
from the fields as the reaper passes
shows how badly infected is the grain.
Conditions are similar in Nicollet
county across the river. The winter
wheat to a large extent escaped the
rust, but the material yield is cut down
considerably by the effect Of the frost
in the early spring. The yield ranges
between 20 and 80 bushels to the acre.
An average of 60 bushels of oats to
the acre is predicted by several farmers
in the vicinity indicating bumper
crop Although the acreage is much
smaller than in former years, barley
will be a good crop. Rye, like winter
wheat, is very good in places, especially
where it was protected from the frost.
1t has been harvested in good condi-
ton, and the average yield is estimated
from 18 to "a bushels.
The gasoline tractor is being used on
many farms this fall to furnish motive
power for small separators and any
number of these outfits have been
purchased during the summer.
AS a result Of the favorable prospects
for this years crop, the. price Of small
grain has taken a considerable slump
during the past two weeks. The
foreign demand for -four has decreased,
and consequently the market has been
OVSlSUOChCo3 Wl1lCll 1o DOuuus W DCll1S
down the price. Wheat last week
took drop Of As cents per bushel, and
rye skidded downward 81 cents in the
past two weeks.
The result of the freight car shortage
will be felt in this vicinity during the
harvest. It is believed that much Of
the grain which wad formerly dumped
on the market from the harvest field,
will have to be stored in the granaries
until car space can be secured to ship
| it but.
Continued dry weather is interfering
materially with the growth of corn.
A good rain during the next few days
is needed to save the crop.

business caller at Sleepy Eye.

CAR SHORTAGE IS
DISCUSSED HERE
MEETING HELD AT CONNER
CIAL CLUB ROOMS ATTEND
ED BY BUSINESSMEN.
COMMITTEE OF NINE TO MAKE
PEOPLE ACQUAINTED WITH
SITUATION.

At public meeting of local business
men called for the purpose Of discussing
the car situation in the Northwest with
special reference to local conditions,
and which was held last week Tuesday
at the Commercial Club rooms COM
mittee of nine was appointed by
Chairman A. l.. Boock to see to it
that people in this vicinity keep
in touch with the situation and write
letters to the Interstate Commerce
Commission and their Senators and
Representatives in Congress asking
the Commission to issue priority orders
for railroad cars to move the crop in
the Northwest to market. Members
of this committee are A. L. Boock, F.
H Retzlaff, Aug. C. Dahl, H. L.
Beecher, A. Schulke, Andrew Saffert;
F. H. Krook, C. B. Hough and c.. A.
Stolz.
Explains Situation.
H. L. Beecher was called upon to
explain the present situation and its
dangers to the economic life of the
Northwest. He stated that if cars,
now at eastern terminals, are not
moved to the Northwest to move the
enormous crops being harvested, "the
east will suffer from a food shortage
this winter and the northwest will face
a condition unlike any ever before
experienced, inasmuch as the farmer
will not be able to market his crops
and thereby secure funds with which
to liquidate his obligations A similar
damaging effect would be felt in the
Industrial and commercial field, he
said. Mr.. Beecher also pointed out
that during the last two months the
local mills have felt the car shortage
more than ever before. To alleviate
the situation somewhat the railroads
have increased the number of car re
pairers in many of their shops. In
New Ulm the c.. & N. W. has added q
few workers in their yrads, while the
M. & St. L. opened car repair shoI
recently.
| Coal Situation.
F. H. Retzlaf called attention te
the present coal situation. He statee
that if coal could not be secured il
time it would be necessary to close the
DR.. Martin Luther College during tn,
coming school year and that tn,
shortage would also be very much fel
at the Union Hospital. Mr.. Boocl
Explained that the Interstate Com
merce Commission recently issued
priority order for 1000 cars to be uset
to ship coal from the mines to lax
ports and that coal would soon be ar
irving at different points in1the North
west in sufficient quantities.

TRI-C0. LEAGUE
BALL DROPPED
TEAMS MUTUALLY AGREE TO
CANCEL REMAINING GEAMS
FOR THIS YEAR. &
FOR NEW LEAGUE
NEXT YEAR ARE GOOD.
FRIENDLY FEELING.

Something which has been looked
forward to for the past few weeks by
local baseball enthusiasts occurred
last week when it was decided at ameet
ing of the board of directors of the Tri-
County baseball league, to cancel the
remaining games and let the tea ms
play Independent ball for the rest OF
the season. This action was casued
by the unqualified strength Of the
various teams and the refusal of several
of the teams to abide by the rules OF
the league
Several weeks ago Morgan gave
notice Of withdrawal from the league
after losing ten games straight and
finding it impossible to keep up the
financial end Of the team. Lamber-
ton had from the start used more hired
men than were allotted to them and
so gained a lead which could not be
overtaken by the remaining teams
Early last week Springfield de-
cided to drop out thus leaving Com
frey, Sleepy Eye and New Ulm as
lone contenders.
Mutual Agreement.
A meeting Of the league directors was
called last Thursday evening at Sleepy
Eye and after few minutes discussion
| it was decided to dissolve the league
for the present season. A very friendly
feeling existed among the different
teams and the talk trended toward the
formation Of new league next year
Money Divided.
The money which had accumulated
in the league treasury from the ter
percent Of the gates receipts was re
returned to the various teams in
proportion to the amount paid in.
After the expenses were figured uI
and deducted the sum allotted to
New Ulm was $l84.42.
With the league schedule off the
fans of this city can rest assured that
they will be given a chance to witness
some of the fastest games ever played
on this diamond. Arrange ments have
| already been made which will bring
some good teams to New Ulm ane
lseveral others will yet be booked.
League Standing
The ending Of the league season find.
the teams in the following places: Lam
berton, first; Comfrey,, second, New
Ulm, third, Sleepy Eye, fourth; Spring
field, fifth and Morgan, sixth.

SUNDAY.

After holding down their ancient
rivals until the eighth inning the locals
went up in the. air and allowed the
Sleepy Eye team to run across four
runs. A "big-l ague" comeback was
staged but it was insufficient to over
come the four runs, the locals losin 6
out four to three.
New Uln Scores In Second.
New Ulm started the scoring in the
second, when Guentner singled. Schae-
fer walked. Guentner and Schaefer
pulled off a double steal. Bertsch,
Dahms and Olsen each struck out
but Donahue missed the third strike
off Olsen and when throwing to first
the ball hit "Chick" scoring Guentner.
From then on until the eight neither
team scored although each managed to
get men on bases. But the balloon
went up. Sherman the first man up
in that frame from Sleepy Eye was out
Born to Bum. Murray then hit the
ball to right field when it took such a
bound that it went over Pfeiffer's head
Murray getting third on it. Hoffman
bunted the ball and Petersen sfumbled
it scoring Murray. Robinson singled
and Hoffman in running to third ran
into Petersen thus not permitting him
field the ball, which went beyond third
scoring Hoffman. Bane hit a long
fly to Guentner who dropped it scoring
Robinson. Donahue struck out but
Reitter connected for a single scoring
is..t.s .Eiss!a be-
tween home when Schaefer missed
Pyells fly.
In the first Of the ninth New Ulm
staged a wonderful comeback. "Pat'
Schueller was sent in to bat for Dahms.
He famed. Goblirsch was sent in
for Olsen. He also struck out. Then
came the head of the list. Bum singl-
ed. Petersen doubled scoring Bum
Pfeiffer then got his third hit scoring
Petersen. Born hit hot liner which
was grabbed by Robinson for the third
out
Several times during the game the
pitchers showed their skill. Pyell,
who was on the mound for Sleepy Eye
struck out twelve men and allowed
nine hits. Bertsch struck out six
of the Sleepy Eye players and allowed
eight hits.
Heavy Hitting.
One of the features of the game was
the several long hits made by both
sides. Peterson of New Ulm got two
two-base hits. Pfeiffer led the New
Ulm team with a two-bagger and two
singles and Bum was a close second
with three singles. Robinson led the
Sleepy Eye team with three singles and
Murray and Bane secured three-base
and two base hit respectively.
