MAKING 1T EASY.

IT IS hard for many athletes to
associate with or even be civil
to many sport writer's when the
latter have made decisions against
them. Usually there is certain to
be resentment one or the other can
not overcome until time has soft
ened what might be called hard
feeling. By that time, the athlete
if he is still "up there"-has learn
ed that the sport writer judges his
work as it appears to him and with
out the slightest influence Of fav-
oritism.
decided against Roy Moore last
Thursday night because l believed
that Mike Dundee had outpointed
him. No matter what doubts Roy
might have entertained on that
score, he was liberal-minded enough
in my presence to admit that he
believed Mike DID have little the
best of him. Perhaps it might have
been to. avert an argument. but l
doubt it. Men like Moore have
long since learned that arguments
are not for their ilk.
The fact remains that there new
er is the slightest flush Of embar-
rassment between the boxer Tin
this case) and the writer, because
each one knows that the other was
perfectly sincere and frank. Last
ing friendships between the two
professions are founded on just
such beliefs. There can be no mis-
understanding when each one has
faith in the other.

WIND THE GLOX.

There has been q tendency on the
part of Manager Glockson all sea-
son to demonstrate managerial
ability by switching his players
from one position to another at the
first signs of what he believed was
distress. when, really. he was
frightened by mere boobies that
would not have proved costly If he
had kept his team intact.
Glockson, as demonstrated yes
terdAy, is too deeply concerned with
the inner works instead Of being a
manager who can step out and sign
players from wide acquaintance in
the player mart. 1t must have
been ludicrous yesterday to view
the effect Of the changes he made
in the lineup.
The chances are that Glockson
never would have pulled such cir
Gus stuff had George McQuillan
been on the field. 1t was the same
devil-may-care attitude by q fair
player who never could qualify as
competent manager. The Rock
Island directorate was ill-advised
when it proffered Glockson the
management Of its club. Glox can
hit and hit nightly. but as to man
aging the club, it isn't his fault that
the Islanders aren't now the laugh
ing stock Of the league.

Chicken pox assumed the lead, the

coming from one of the school dis

for the spread of the disease accord
ing to Doctor Brown. is because in all

Influenza ranked second, with 26

JUDGING LIVE STOCK
PROPERLY is AN ART
Relatively Few Persons Ever At

Various Features on Subject Discussed
in Popular Language by Circular
Issued by the Department
of Agriculture.

A real need in agricultural regions
today is more widespread knowledge
of how to judge live stock properly.
While the Judging of the finest ami
mails is likely to remain an art IN
which relatively few persons can at
tain the highest standing, nevertheless
farmers as q whole should be thor
ougnIy familiar with the general piin-
ciples Of Judging stock. knowledge
Of this sort is real asset.
The art of judging beef cattle is the
foundation of all beef-cattle shows,
and also is largely the means OF de-
terInining the value of cattle offered
in public sales. 1t serves as a basis
for every man who buys and raises
cattle to seek improvement along
well-recOgpized lines.
Sample score cards for fat and
feeder beef cattle and for breeding
beef cattle, together with a model
card for comparative judging by class
or team, constitute part of the mate

Various attempts have been made
to establish egg and poultry standard
grades. but the various exchanges are
not in agreement regarding grades, and
the trade has been handicapped be-
cause of resulting diversities.
The difficulties constantly arising be-
cause OF the lack of common stand
ards are illustrated by the experience
of New York broker who made
bid to q western shipper for carload
of eggs classed as Refrigerator firsts."
The offer was accepted, and when the
car arrived it could not be discovered
that these eggs fitted any known grade
of refrigerated firsts." In the rather
heated discussion that followed the
western shipper finally announced that
he had graded the eggs according to
a standard of his own
These are days when American pro-
ducers are looking to foreign markets.
Abroad, even more than at home, rec
ognized grades are an asset. Again
eggs may be used as an Illustration.
Prior to 1914 the largest amount Of
eggs exported to the United Kingdom
by this country was less than 100000
dozen in a year. Since 1914 it has
varied from 100000 dozen to 7,700,-
600 dozen. The way has been opened
for the development of this immense
trade bcauSe there have been small
imports from continental Europe. But,
in spite of the lead given us by the
war, Canadian eggs have been bringing
from to cents more in the British
market than American eggs. Nor was
it question of sentiment with the
Englishmen. The Canadian shippers,
anxious to continue merchandising
connections established during the
war, have been grading their eggs, and
that fact has appealed to the discrim-
mating British public.
standardizing Is Fundamental.
The lesson to America is obvious.
1t applies not only to eggs, but to
many other farm products. A repre-
sentative of the bureau of markets
has stated the case thus: standard
ization is fundamental to progress in
every field of effOrt-in the arts and
sciences, and in industry and COM

If eventually, why not soon? The ex-

Farming by rule of thumb is becOm-
ing obsolete. But many farmers still
''want to be shown" the value of grad
ing fruits and vegetables and certain
other farm products. Without COM
monty accepted standards for many
products considerable part of the
profits due to systematic agriculture
is lost
Benefits of Standard Grades.
The bureau of markets, United
States department of agriculture, in
pointing out the Importance of grading
larger number of farm products,
summarizes the benefits as follows:
1t would encourage better methods
Of production and handling.
1t would provide standard trading
basis.
1t would enable the buyer to procure
q stock of any size and quality de-
sired.
1t would aid in eliminating fraud,
thereby promoting confidence among
producers, dealers. and consumers.
The federal grain and cotton stand
ards have come to be generally recog-
nized as desirable, and the wartime
potato grades, though no longer COM
pulsOry, are still widely adhered to
"a fact that is good evidence of their
value. Several states, including Penn
sylvania, New Jersey, California, Tex
as, Wisconsin, and North Carolina,
through their own marketing bureaus,
are establishing or have established
standard grades for one or more prod
ucts. I re federal bureau of markets
has been glad to aid these agencies
in various ways, having made an ex-
tensive study of the problem and ac-
cumulated much valuable data. 1t is
prepared to offer helpful suggestions
to any state or trade organization in
terested in establishing standard
grades for the following products
Irish potatoes, onions, sweet potatoes,
apples, fresh tomatoes, and cabbages.
1t also has Investigations under way
dealing with several other products.
Grades a Universal Language.
Students of present-day complex
methods of distribution assert that it
is impossible to have adequate market
quotations until farm products are
sold according to commonly accepted
standards. Terms used in standard
grades are in effect a universal Ian
guage. They permit each agent in
touch with the market to speak and
be spoken to with clear and full un-
Outstanding of the sort of products
under discussion.
The total value, for the United
States, of such representative items
as eggs and poultry indicate the mag
nitude of the interests now suffering
from lack of adequate grading prac-
tees. These products for 1919 were
