PROPER DEPTH FOR FLOWING
That Deep Cultivation Prevents
Drying Out OF Soil.

Keep your mules fat, or If you have
a tractor, save gasoline, as expert
ments have exploded the theory that
deep cultivation prevents the drying
out Of the soil. NJ G. Sewell, of the
agronomy department of the Kansas
State Agricultural college, draws the
following conclusions from expert
ments:
Flowing deeper than seven inches
has not generally resulted In an in
crease of crop yields.
Shallow blowing may produce as
large yields as deeper blowing.
Proper rotation of crops lessons the
number Of plowings necessary.
Cultivation may be necessary only
to kill weeds and keep the soil In a
receptive condition TO absorb rainfall.
Thus. where the policy of blowing Is
that Of thorough cultivation in order
to maintain soil mulch, II is pos
slble to reduce the amount Of culti-
walton to a considerable extent.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Alfred Martin, Minister

The most recent gift to our
church is from Mrs. JOS. Yuill,
which consists of a beautiful and
costly pulpit Bible, Oxford India
paper edition, with flexible bind
ing. This style of binding is quite
popular. We sincerely appreciate
such a suitable and generous
gift.
The vacation season is here but
the spirit of worship knows no va
cation. There is a danger that
we forget God in our passion for
pleasure and business. The soul
needs daily food for strength.
We can starve and impoverish
our spirituality and grow weak.
Every day our energies are ex-
hausted and need to be renewed.
The supply of grace is sufficient
if we only use it. We do not live
by bread alone. Spiritual things
are as vital here as material.

FREE METHODIST CHURCH

| will preach my farewell SER
mon on Sunday evening at 7:45.
1t is with regret that the time has
come when we must leave Yale
and the many good friends that
we will leave behind. Three years
is the limit in our church, and we
have served that time here. We
have endeavored while here not
only to work for the interests of
the church but for the city of
Yale as well. We have endeavor-
ed to live good, clean christian
lives. The church has grown and
az number of good citizens have
moved to the city and united
with the church.
We wish to thank the business
people, in fact all for their kind
ness to us, and hope some day to
return and locate in this beauti-
full city.
We will leave next Tuesday
for the conference which is to
be held in Corunna.

RIVALS WIN BOTH OF THEIR
 WEEK END GAMES

The Rivals defeated the Jewett City All Stars Saturday by the score of to l. With the score 1 to 0 in All Stars favor up to the 9th inning, an error by the All Stars first baseman cost them the game as the Rivals hammered out runs with nobody out when down came the rain. After waiting some time the umpire called the game. Mas sey's home run with men on bases was the feature of this game.
 On Sunday the Rivals defeated Yer sailles 10 to 1. In the 4th inning the Rivals piled up runs. Massey's home run with 3 on bases put the game on ice after this inning. Versailles never had a show to win as Anderson pitched air tight ball. Massey and Charon featured. Swanson, catching for the Rivals had his finger split but bandag- ed it up and continued playing.

GOODYEAR SWAMPS CONN.
 MILLS ON OWN GROUNDS

Danielson, Aug. g - Goodyear gave Connecticut Mills an awful drubbing on the grounds here Sunday afternoon, winning hands down, , to 0. The big gest crowd of the season, about 1900 people, was on hand to see what was expected to be a close, hard battle, but as things turned out, Goodyear was so far superior to the home club that they simply walked away with the bacon.
 The Danielson team had but one real opportunity to score all during the game and this was in the third when Arthur lifted the ball to right field, the horsehide taking bound beneath an automobile standing near the fine and while the fielder was recovering the pill, Arthur had raced around to third. Only one was down. But the run died on the hot corner when Adams and Elliott went out on throws to first.
 Chet Nichols hurled for Goodyear and he was in fine fettie. He shot them over in his niftiest style and apparent ly did not exert himself a bit, while in the last two frames he simply tossed them up, depending on those behind him to take care of those found for hits. He piled up a total of 10 strikeOuts and allowed but three hits, one of which was of a very scratch nature. Nichols apparently loomed up like a mountain when his opponents faced him. Chet also was given first class support Some very fast fielding stunts were pulled by those behind him, the work of Commette, sherman, Fryer and How arth showing up particularly brilliant not forgetting of course that bulwark of strength wrapped up in diminutive Runt Emmons.
 On the other hand the losers played a ragged sort of game. Goodyear got men on first base on errors, the run ners later scoring in three cases, and on wild heaVes by BIanchette and Red dy, two runs went home. In all the home crew turned in a total of six CT TOTS against two by Goodyear.
 Goodyear players took their bats in to the game with them, making a total of i hits. Arthur, who pitched until one man was down in the seventh, dur Ing which time F runs had been scoreI, allowed IA of these II bingles Jack Gilmore whaled out the best one Of the game, getting clean home run to right in the sixth. Previously Jack had walloped the leather for three sacks He completed his batting record fer the day with single in the ninth. Commette, with three singles, and En- mons with a double and brace of one sackeTS topped the list with Gilmore, sherman, -NlCnOIS ana hOWdIlu Bet ting two apiece and Patenaude and Do nais one each. Fryer was the only Goodyear man who failed to connect safely.
 Carter relieved Arthur in the seventh, going in to twirl right in the middle of I batting fest by the Goodyearites. He allowed three hits, two of them in this fatal inning and one in the ninth, three runs beigg scored.
 Adams, Carter and Arthur made the hits for the losers.
 Staunch supporters of Connecticut NILS are now convinced, that though the team was strengthened by two spe- ciaI players, there will have to be quite a shakeup by next Sunday if victory is to come to the outfit in the second game of the series with Goodyear at Goodyear next Sunday afternoon.

Teddy Russell, who is grooming for his coming clash with Rammering Howie or Woonsocket, has made good on his own account with the fans in Norwich and when he came to this city he was unknown to the p1blic. He simply went in and made good on his own merits and not through past reputation as a boxer. Now that he has shown the goods and has made good here it has been discov- cred that he possesses an enviable rec ord It has been learned that at one time he held the welterweight champ ioship of the state of Wisconsin and also the title in the state of Oregon.
 He came east shortly before the war broke out and located in Springfield where he immediately made good and when he enlisted in the service of his country at the outbreak of the war he he'd been matched to box K O. Palitz of Hartford.
