CHAMP PITCHER,
OF HIGH SCHOOL
HAS BIG RECORD

Lexington, Ky, Dec. 2S.-Twenty-
one games won and four lost during
the 1920 season with semi-profcssional
baseball clubs at Lynch and Cynthi-
ana, KY, was the record OF Stanley
M. (Bud) King, who for four years
held unofficial title Of champion high
school pitcher of Kentucky and who
has signed contract with the Chicago
White Sox for the 1921 season.
Kings addition to the list of young
sters to be tried out by the Chicago
club was broughti about through Herve
Mcclellan, third bascman, who played
with Cynthiana after the close Of the
American league season. Two of the
games lost were won by the Louisville
American Association team.
King is 20 years old. He weighs 15G
pounds and pitches with his right arm
He has no set style of delivery. using
overland, underhand and side arm
deliveries with equal facility. He has
a good fast ball, critics declare, and a
tantalizing slow outcurve.
King played with the Lexington
high school team of 1915 to 1919. This
team twice tied for the championship
Of Kentucky with the Boys High
school of Louisville and twice was
nosed out by the same team. King
won most Of his games.
Last year King played ser1i-profcs-
sional baseball with various LeXing-
ton teams. This year he started the
season with Lynch, Ky, but early in
the fall switched to Cynthiana where
Mcclellan played third base; Stanley
Reese, formerly with the st. Louis
Browns, played first, and Charlie
Nohrer, a pitcher from the Ohio State
league, played short. Roger Mitchell,
who signed with the Philadelphia Ma
tional League team, was the other
nitcher for Cvnthiana,

HOW no MAKE SURE
THAT EGGS ARE FRESH
r r 4 4

When supplying a fancy trade with
eggs, or on receiving eggs from out
side sources, it is often desirable to de-
termine their freshness. The method
generally used by commission mel
chants for this purpose is known as
Gambling and consists in holding the
egg between the eye and a light so as
to note the contents. This should be
done in a darkened room, using one OF
the egg testers on the market or a sim
pie homemade tester.
The air space in a perfectly fresh
egg is very small, and as the egg loses
part Of its contents by evaporation this
air space increases in size with the
age Of the egg. Fresh eggs should ap-
pear clear and bright, showing no dark
spots. Those accustomed to Gambling
soon learn to detect stale eggs with q
good degree of accuracy and rapidity.
Another method employed by some
who have not a great number to test is
to put the eggs in a basin OF water. II
good they lie on their sides; II bad they
will stand on the small ends. The Older
the egg the more upright it stands, and
If very old it will be suspended in the
water or even float on the surface.

Herbert Hadley,s Candidacy.

Fort Dodge Messenger: The candi-
dacy Of Herbert Il. Hadley, of Nevada,
for attorney general is of more than
ordinary interest to the people OF Web
ster county, as he was born in Webster

ark township. His father, Peter Had
ley, who was well known IN his life
time, had been county treasurer OF

ty attorney. He left his law practice

Gus endorsement of the bar OF his home
county and of all of the judges OF the
Eleventh judicial district. He was
warmly endorsed by the Republican

Plant Potatoes.

If you have any garden space to
spare'by all means plant some OF 1t to
potatoes. This is the advice OF the
United States department OF agricul-
ture to ga rdeners who want to avoid
the high prices for potatoes which
seem to be in prospect for next fall.
The early crop of potatoes in the
Southern States is now well advanced
and soon there will be a supply of new
potatoes on all the markets. These
will last but Il short time, however,
and can not be depended upon for use
next winter. The late or main crop
produces most Of the potatoes that go
into storage and supply the markets
all through the winter months. Home
gardeners can help to make this supply
adequate.
Land that is now in early garden
crops. in some sections may be planted
to late potatoes after these crops have
been removed. Any vacant or unused
land, even though it may he a little
rough and difficult to handle, may
often be made to produce good pOta-
toes. Even the backyard will help to
produce the "spuds" for the family
table if it is not toe shady. There is
likely to be much unused farming land
this year and groups of city men couid
well afford to plant this land to pota-
toes on a share basis.
Seed potatoes are scarce ana hlgh
in price, but u bushel of seed will plant
one-tenth acre and should produce Il
to 20 bushels of potatoes, or IA winters
supply for Il family of five. Cut the
seed potatoes. as they are planted, 10

type of band musicians on the mar
ket. AS the Chicago Tribune says

able to produce Il quality Of tone eX'
ceptionally fine and pure" In the sec
ond place, Weber is generous with his
encores. The Dcs Moines Register
points out that they merit the title
of The Encore Band" For the chau'
tauqua program, Weber has planned
from sixteen to twenty encore numbers
each for afternoon and evening con
certs.

more than $1,000. 1t is planned to

users Of Iowa highways around OBJ

primary and secondary road systems.
The Iowa highway commission has
adopted a standard type of detour
signs and every engineer in charge
of construction or maintenance. work
which seriously iInpedes or obstructs
traffic must see that not only a well
maintained detour is provided but that
signs are erected to guide and protect
highway users. Too little attention
has been paid in the past to the con-
y%enience Of the users Of the highways
where construction or maintenance
work has been in progress. Not in
frequently travellers have been udde
ly confronted by impossible construc-
ton and have been compelled to turn
back and make complete detours OF
several miles to get around the oD.
struction. Often in the case OF
strangers not familiar with the roads,
the problem Of finding a way around
Instructions becomes q serious matter.
The commission is anxious this year
to avoid all cause for complaints IN
regard to impossible detours where
construction work is in progress.
The detour signs are to be llx2S

printed with the arrow in yellow up
on a black background. The r
