discard by the major league manag-
ers of today. Records show that there
were nearly three times as many stol-
en- bases in the AmericI league and
nearly twice as many IN the National
league nine years ago as there were
last year and indications are that the
decrease this year over nine years ago
will be still greater. Where there were
10 star base stealers there is now
only one.
Many reasons for the decrease are
advanced by managers and men who
formerly Were noted for their daring
on the paths. While all agree that
heavy hitting has helped in the ten
dency to make the stolen base extinct,
some also blame the ineffectiveness
of pitchers, failure of umpires to en-
force the balk rule and the scarcity
of fast men. Ty Cobb, the greatest
base runner in history, says that
the stolen base has been discarded only
temporarily and will return soon.
Cobb declares that the game moves

Of today, are coming back into
baseball. Not to the major
leaguns, or even to the minors, for
these veterans have no idea that
they can replace the stars of to-
day. but plans are being made
for all Of them to appear In an
exhibition game when the 125th
anniversary Of the founding of
Cleveland Is celebrated.
The team Of old-tmers will meet
a selection of Cleveland young
sters and efforts are being made
to get some of the greatest ball
players of baseball history in the
Oldtimers' lineup.
Cy Young, who stayed in the
big leagues until he was well past
the forty year mark, will pitch
for the Oldtimers, according to
the plans, and Chief thinner, his
old battery mate, will catch. Bill
Bradley, whose wonderful field
ing and batting feats still are re-
lated by the gray.haired fans,
will be at third base, Terry Tur-
ner, the fielding flash of years
ago, at shortstop, and Charlie
Hickman at first. Larry La
joie, still spoken of as the great
est all-time second baseman. will
captain the team and play second.
In the outfield will be Elmer
Flick, Jim McAleer and Harry
Bay, all stars in their day. Neal
Ball. who gained fame years ago
through an unassisted triple play
while with Cleveland: Jess Burk-
EFT. Bunk Congalton and George
Cuppy will be the substitutes,
Lajoie thinks this team will
hold its own against any other
despite the age OF the players.

Service, Department of Agriculture.
spent a day in Fayette County last
week in the interest Of PLAN fer the
cooperative ginning and marketing of
cotton this fall. While here be exar lined
some cotton fields and states that he
found boIlweevils in fairly large num-
bfrs. Farmers from various districts
Of the county are also reporting their
presence.
Mr., Nichols does not look for extern
sive damage from these pests this year
in Fsyette County because they seem
TO be late in getting started in the
county. but with mild winter between
this and another cotton growing season,
he believes We may look for serious
damage next year.
According TO Mr.. Nichols the life
cycle of bollweevil from egg to
mature stage is about q days. The
mature Seevil lays from 100 to $50 eggs
one to each square and in Fl days these
are hatched and grown into weevils
ready each 10 destroy its 100 or more
squares. With such steady msthemst-
ical multiplication it does not take long
TO infest q district with enough weevil
to totally destroy cotton crop.
Contrary to general bt lief the boil
weevil rarely attacks full grown or
half grown boil. tits the young square
which 10 subject to their depredations.
The weevil punctures the square with
small opening like that made by
fine needle, deposits an egg in the
immature poll ct the I base Of the
square and then seals the puncture with
wax. The egg matches In the shape of
white grub like worm which immed
lately begins to eat out the inside of
the young boil. In II or is days this
grub grows to mature size, develops
wings changes color to light brown.
eats lie way out Of the bell and is then
ready to complete the vicious circle by
laying eggs and propsgating its own
kind.
The cid weevil IRE hard to find in
cotton field sc they hide themselves In
the foliage. The surestw way to determine
their presence is to examine the fallen
squares. If any are found with 3
needle like puncture in the side which
has been sealed over with wax and.
upon opening ,. small white worm is
found inside then you may be sure you
have boil weevil in your cotton as no
other weevil operates in just the same
way.
