 TAKE LEAD IN
 WORLD SERIES
(By the Associated Press)

1 Polo Grounds, New York, Oct. 12.-- Victory again perched upon the ban ] ners of the Giants today, when a hard-fought pitchers battle with the Yankees terminated ? to 1 in their favor, giving the National Leaguers for the first time the advantage in the world series, to 3, and putting the worlds championship within one game of their grasp.
 Mays and Douglass were again pit ted against each other and both went the full route. Each pitched mas terly game, Mays in fact slightly out twirling his adversary, but the Giants were the more fortunate in placing their six safeties. The American Leaguers got eight hits, but Doug lass kept them so scattered that none were effective except in the second inning when the Yankees made their lone tally.
 An error by Aaron Ward, the Ar kansas boy whose brilliant fielding and batting have featured the Yan- | hCS PiaS, poNSd tIlc way lOI tHe Giants winning run. Ward fumbled Rawlings roller, permitting him to reach first in safety, and he scored moment later on Snyder's roaring double to left field.
 The Giants tied the score in the fourth, when Young singled, stole second and scored on Meusel's single to center.
 The Yankees one run was earned in the second inning Pipp doubled and was sacrificed to third by Ward McNally's single sent him home Me Nally hurt his shoulder trying to steal second and was relieved by Frank Baker.
 Score by innings: h e Yankees OOOOO0-1 8 1 Giants ---0001 0010x-2 6 0 Mays and Schang; Douglass and Snyder.

ANKLES IN MOURNING


Feminine ankles apparently have
gone into mourning. The bright red,
green, blue, or tan silk stocking that
used to brighten the London streets
have disappeared
Stroll along Bond street or Regent
street any afternoon and for every
gay pair of ankles you see you will
count at least four black ones.
The disappearance of the bright col
ors is credited to the sudden craze for
black that is sweeping through the
dress world, craze that is largely
ascribed to stocks of black material
accumulated by the great Paris houses
for purposes of mourning during the
war and which the houses are now
attempting to unload.

LADY KILLERS"

The United States Department of
Agriculture is fostering an exhibit of
lady killers" in the State of Wash
ington. Among the exhibits are the
old-time wash tub, washboard, broom
and dustpan, the sadiron, castiron
kitchen stove, coal stove, soap stone
heater and many other pieces of
household equipment of by-gone days.
In another department are shown all
the modern conveniences, as the ISL
lent servants of the house are wash
ing clothes and ironing them, cooking
the meals and sweeping and cleaning
the rooms, all at the touch of an elec-
tric switch.

SOILS IN need
OF PHOSPHORUS
Spokane and Other Counties
Found in Need of This
Chemical.

Fertilizer demonstrations conducted
during the past year, indicate that
phosphorus is one of the limiting fac.
tors affecting an increase in crop
production in many of the counties
of the state. Out of sixty-eight fertil-
izer demonstrations conducted by
Leonard Hegnauer, extension soil spe-
cialist of the state college, sixty-five
gave increases varying from S to 100
per cent where superphosphate was
used.
These demonstrations were conduct
ed in cooperation with the county
agents and local farmers in the coun-
ties of King, Grays Harbor, Kittitas,
Benton, Spokane, Whatcom, Cowlitz,
San Juan, Clallam, Thurston, Snohom-
ish and Wahkiakum

HOW TO CLEAN FURs AT HOME

Furs may be cleaned by washing
| in gasoline or in suds made with
CASTLE soap and little borax, fol-
lowed by several rinsings in clear
water, is a helpful suggestion from
the biological survey, United States
department of agriculture. 1t is best
to hang them out of doors to dry.
When dry or nearly 80, they re-
quire to be stretched and rubbed on
the flesh side to make them pliable
again.
Fur garments may be frightened
by sponging them with gasoline and
then rubbing corn meal into the
fur while it is still damp to take
up the particles of dirt that have
been loosened. Gasoline should never
be used, of course, where it's fumes
can come in contact with fire.
Another way of cleaning fur SUI
perfcially is by means of naphtha-
lene crystals thoroughly rubbed into
it. The pulverized crystals and the
dirt which has been disloged may
be removed by whipping, brushing
with a whisk broom, or by a vacuum
cleaner.
The Rathdrum tribune. (Rathdrum, Idaho) 1903-1963, 1921-12-23

The fertilizer was tried out on sandy
loan, clay bottom, shot clay upland,
peaty soils and gravelly uplands.
Three plots were run to show the dit
ferent treatment One with barnyard
manure, another with barnyard ma
nure and superphosphate and another
with just superphosphate alone Out
of the twenty-eight plots where super
phosphate was applied in combination
with the manure, only one failed to
give good results. The results were
more uniform than in the case OF the
alone and general ay-
erage increases were higher.
Crops used in the demonstrations
included: potatoes, corn, strawberries,
wheat, oats, clover, peas and oats,
alfalfa meadow, wheat and vetch, oats
and vetch, raspberries and loganber-
ries.

formly good results obtained from the
use of phosphorus. 1t is especially
to be noted that an addition of a
small amount of superphosphate to
the manure produced on the farm
greatly increases the value of the ma
nure and the manure in turn helps

THE VOICE OF THE FARM

When the big, strong Voice Of the

Till it roars in your cars--and the
Lights brilliant glare
Sortcr dazzles your eycs-and the
farmin' work pals
Well, you hardly can wait till
you've landed there
When your leavin' home.
But the charm soon goes-and
your thoughts turn back
TO the big-hcartcd folks and the
old, homclike place,
N you realize times ON the farm
amt 50 slack,
N they're not cuttin' down Just
to keep up the pace
When you hear from home.
SO you think you'll go back-and
you pack your grip,
N you try to rub out the bright
shine on your coat,
But you find that you haven't the
price Of the trip,
N big, throbbim lump rushes up
in your throat
When you cant get home.
Then the big, strong Voice of the
City seems
A great, hollow echo, deluSion and
SNARE
N you sick of it all-and you
lie down to dreams
OF the joys of the folks and the
happiness there
When you'll get back home.

Tests for Diamonds,

The true diamond Is not cut by q
file, has specific gravity Of 3.52 and
luster that shows clearly even when
the stone Is immersed In water. A
small drop Of water dropped on the
face Of a clean, dry diamond preserves
Its globular form and does not spread.
When line is drawn on n diamond
with an aluminium pencil, and It Is
then rubbed briskly with molstened
cloth, the line disappears. The com.
monest test Is to draw the edge Of the

THE STAR IN THE NIGHT

Dark, and darker, grows the night
Across the waves no CHEEKY light
Guides the sailors on their way.
The gray fog like giant wings
Smothcrs the light the lantern
filings,
From the lighthouse over the bay.
And yet we know the moon shines
bright,
The sky bestrewn with stars alight
In the wondrous upper air.
The ships that are still adrift
When the fogs shall scatter and
lift,
Will safely ride in our harbor
fair.
What Of a world bcfogged, and
blind:
Adrift, in sea Of evil enturned
Beset with murder, hate and
crime!
Man have faith; God heareth the
call,
He offers a light that never need
fall;
The mists will clear in His own
good time.
What of the ships wrecked in the
night,
And the dead adrift on the tidesq
What Of the souls lost ere the
light
Drives the mists of doubt aside ?
| answer God s love is deep, and
wide;
His mercy, we read, will ever
abide.
