The Philadelphia Manufacturers
Baseball League, one Of the city's pio-
neers in industrial sports, concludes the
first half of its seasons baseball race
with the playing of today's games, ac-
cording to the schedule. The meeting
for ratifying the second half schedule
hRs been called for Monday evening.
But there is every possibility that it
will not be necessary to start on the
second half just yet. A glance at the
official standing Of the teams, ten in all
reveals the fact that IL two certain
clubs meet defeat this afternoon It will
mean that no less than five will be
tied for first half honors. This would
no doubt be worlds record, according
to the best of information.
But 1t all hangs on this possibility.
Nice Ball Bearing must defeat Johns

LITTLE BUTTER is EXPORTED
Product Manufactured in the United
States Is Small Factor in Inter
national Trade.

Butter made in the United States Is
very small factor in the information
al butter trade, according TO compila-
tlons made by dairy experts of the
United Stntes department of acricu-
ture. More than 90 per cent of our
butter business has been entirely do
nestle except in the last three years.
Even small exports and imports. hsw-
ever, have n considerable effect on
prices. That condition Is especially
true in countries where butter produc-
tion and consumption are nearly equal.
The United Kingdom and Germany
were :he principal butter-importine
nations, and Europe in the last decade
has been unable to supply its own but
ter needs. Shortly before the war ST.

able to make all plans for the work
as soon as possible. Water for the
Ice supply should be entirely free from
contamination or pollution. Ponds and
sluggish streams usually have grass
and weeds growing in them. so that
the Ice harvest is likely to contain de-
cayed vegetable matter. which Is al
ways Objectionable. They should there

growths before the ice has formed.
In some sections 1t Is necessary to

across low arens. In localities where
very low temperatures prevail for sew
eral weeks at time and the supply
OF pure water is limited. blocks OF ice
may be frozen in metal cans or In spe-
ciai fiber containers.
Size Of the Ice Field.
In harvesting ice 1t is desirable to
have field OF sufficient size to fill the
ice-hOuse at single cutting. as the
thickness and quality OF the Ice will
