Will YANKEES PLAY
HERE AUG, q? have
4 GAME SCHEDULED

Definite word regarding the exhibit
ton ball game the New York Yankees
are supposed to play here, August %.
probably will be obtained next week
by officials of the Richmond Exhibit
ton company.
Exhibition company officials signed
the contract with the Yankees the
first part of May. Since then the
Yankees have bIossomed forth as the
most sought after major league base
ball in the country. For that reason
Exhibition officials are somewha t
doubtful if the Yankees will fill tho
contract.
Elmer Eggemeyer, president of the
Exhibition company, said Saturday
that Richmond had an organized base,
ball club and the Yankees would not
be permitted to break the contract.
AS it is, the exhibition game depends
upon the disposition of the Yankees
financial secretary.
Good Price Guaranteed.
A good price was guaranteed the
Yankees by the local baseball organi-
cation. The price was accepted, as
Richmond gained nationwide reputa'
ton by reason of the $4,000 baseball
fund raised in a short time.
The treatment and price given the
Cincy Reds last year also influenced
the Yankees to sign the contract.
No doubt exists but what Exhibi'
ton park would have the largest
crowd of it's history. should the Yam
KEGS agree to fill the contract. What
baseball fan in this vicinity would
turn down an opportunity of seeing
Babe Ruth slam one out over short
left and center field fences?
Want Word, However.
The Exhibition company will await
word from the New York manage
ment before launching an advertising
campaign.
Exhibition company officials say the
| contract absolutely calls for the ap
pearance of the regular Yankee line-ul
for half the game.

pitching program for the opening
scrap between the first place Reds
and the lowly Cubs. Alexander mas

the Reds are confident they Will be
able to continue their winning streak.
Despite the three out OF four trlm-

second place and three games behind
the Dodgers. Eleven won and six lost

FIGURES OUT new
CENTRAL CIRCUIT

Joe Carr, baseball league promoter,
of Columbus, is busy with scratch pad
and pencil, figuring a compact minor
baseball league for next year.
The league most in favor with Carr
would have Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo,
Muskegeon, Ludington, Fort Wayne,
Richmond, Springfield and Lima. This
is exactly the same league Elmer
Eggemeyer had lined up last winter,
but which was spoiled by Lima's re
fusal to enter.
Another league now being planned
by South Bend promoters has South
Bend Gary, Fort Wayne, Battle Creek,
Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids Saginaw
and Flint. Richmond is left out of the
discussion because it is supposed to
be too far south for economy.

Crops Over Average, Shows
Report; Northwest Wheat Cut

The composite condition of all crops
in the United States Aug. I is about
So per cent above the 10 year ave-
rage, as given by the government re-
port. 1t was Sc per cent higher than
July 1 and SIS per cent above the final
per acre yields of last year. This years
total acreage in 20 cultivated crops
is "a per cent under last years.
Nearly all of the small grains are
cut in the southern part of the north
western states and thrashing is under
way" says the Van Dusen crop re-
port. Harvesting Is now general in
the north. Late crops have undoubt-
eddy been hurt the last week by the
heat. drought and rust. Regardless of
unfavorable weather for rust, it has
continued to damage the grain. We
have reports from a number of dis
tricts stating that fields of late wheat
will not pay to cut. In some places
wheat is of good weight and excellent
quality. In others it is badly shrunken
but of good milling value. New wheat
is being marketed at country eleva-
tors. Thrashing has been stopped by
lack of steam coal. Oats are the best
small grain crop in the northwest.
Barley has not developed as favor
ably as oats. Flax has lost to some de-
gree and condition, owing to heat and
dry weather.
The Indiana state report makes the
spring wheat crop 1000 bushels.
compared with 22S,000 bushels last
year.
The Iowa state report says: Unless
temperatures are somewhat above
normal during next month, there will
he considerable soft corn

The Farm and
the Farmer
BY William r. Sanborn

According to Ben Price, of the
Buckeye Elevators, Cincinnati is
about the best wheat market Just
now" Mr.. Price said on Friday even
ing that they had paid $40 for wheat,
$1.4o for corn and 63 cents for oats
during the day. These prices were in
effect at Boston, Kitchell, Witt Station
and Fountain City and each was receiv.
ing both wheat and oats.
The Equity at New Paris.
While the Farmers Equity plant at
New Paris is doing quite business in
fertilizer, feed and coal, Mr.. Noakes is
lamenting the delay in receiving ma
chinery for their new elevator plant
This delay has prevented their buying
grain SO far this season, greatly to the
disappointment of the membership
Mr.. Noakes said they were expecting
two cars of coal in on Saturday.
But One Car This Week.
Walter Mathews, of Centerville
complains of receiving but one car this
week and says that two a day would
come in handy just now. AS to space
he said that he still had little room
for wheat, the price on which was
$3.50 to possibly $2.35, for extra
fancy, but none had been taken in on
Friday
He stated that elevators to the west
were paying 1925 on Friday, price be
ing subject to change according tc
market conditions. Oats were bringing
60 cents at Centerville, which seems tc
be the prevailing price in country
districts.
Wheat $225 at Modoe.
The elevator at Modoc reports two
cars received in last two days and thai
wheat is coming in rather freely. Oats
are also beginning to move and quite
lot of them are in the bins. The
quality is very fine and the yield good
a number of farmers reporting from
40 to so bushels. They were paying
e. cents for oats and 1925 for whea
at Modoc on Friday.
Another Week Of Treshing.
]. F. Seagraves, of Losantville, say!
that it will take another week to finisl
oat threshing. AS to cars, one cam,
in last Saturday and two during thu
presnt week, so that they are in shape
to receive both wheat and oats. Mr.
Seagraves thinks this a mighty goo(
time for country shippers to go slow
where they are not sure Of cars, so a:
to fill contract shipments, within thu
specified time.
There are the new freight rates t
consider if you cannot load out while
present rates are Operative" he said
which is certainly correct. Whea
was worth 1925 and oats 62 cents a
Losantville, on Friday. Oats have
teen coming in daily this week.

SEVERAL HURT IN
 TRAIN COLLISION
CUSHMAN LOCAL AND COTTER LOCAL IN HEAD-ON C0LLI-
 SION NEAR BATESVILLE

The Cushman local and the Cotter local ran together in a head-end col lision near Batesville last Monday, slightly injuring several of the train crew and three or four passengers.
 The injured are Engineer Farley, sprained ankle.
 Fireman Sutton, injured about the chest.
 Engineer Hogan, scalp wound and other minor injuries.
 Mrs. Stella Anderson of Cushman, slightly bruised.
 Mrs. Emma Casteel of Crane, Mo-, severely injured about the hip and back
 w H. Bratty, slightly injured about the head. Conductor Baker and Brakeman Ava Smith were slightly injured.
 The collision occurred on trestle across what is known as Dry Run, near the Bayou bridge in tfe out skirts of Batesville. Both engines were badly wrecked and several cars were demolished.
 Both trains were running late and it is thought the collision was caus- ed by the train crews failing to prop erly observe running orders.

LOOK WELL TO THE
 NEEDS OF THE SCHOOLS

We owe it to ourselves, to our children, and to our country to make our schols as efficient as possible. Some of the fundamental necessities of good schools are: adequate funds, efficient teachers, loyal and coopera- tive school patrons, and competent and faithful school boards. We must look well at this time to the needs of our schools. Every voter should make 1t his business to go to the polls on May 15 and give the schools the benefit of his vote and support.
