Is the mighty Babe Ruth, base
balls greatest swat king of all time,
to lose his crown in the very zenith
of his career?
Has the great enthusiasm for
Babes mighty home runs been the
incentive to bring out mighuer and
mightier bat swinging?
Are ball players of the future, like
race horses, to 6e bred and born from
good stock?
All the above questions and more
.too-are being asked now BY fans
everywhere as they watch day to day
the performance of "Bingo" George
Kelly, first baSeman of the New York
Giants.
Kelly is out-Ruthing Ruth. He
knocked out seven home runs to
Ruths six in the first three weeks of
the season, when fans awoke to the
fact that new star had arrived
Ruth broke all records last season
when he knocked 81 home runs. He
predicted that he would beat that
mark this year-then along came
Kelly. What will he do?
Ruth is almost a month ahead of
last years record-breaking schedule,
but Kelly is ahead of him.
Kelly broke into the Giants line
up last year, knocked out eleven
home runs during the season, but
played only fair baseball. This sea-
son, however, he is playing a bang
up game, and batting the same way.
Old-time baseball fans who always
insisted that ball players were born,
not made, are now pointing to Kelly
as proof of their claim. He comes
from family of baseball players,
his uncle, Bill Lange, being a great
star of the big league in his day.
Ruth knocks out home runs in
lunging, powerful swing, with virtu-
ally all of his weight behind the blow.
He knocks EN- high and far. He bats
left-handed.
Kelly bats right-handed, as shown

Farmers Can Combine
For Market Advantage
REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN House
By VQrE OF 294 TO 40 GIVES
THEM THAT RIGHT

Washington, May l6,-By a vote
of 294 to 40 the Republican majority
in the House has passed bill per-
mitting farmers to combine in aSSo-
Citations for marketing purposes.
This bill, said Representative
VolStead, chairman of the Judiciary
Committee, in explanation, aims to
authorize cooperative associations
among farmers for the purpose of
marketing their products. There are
a great many of these associations
today scattered all over this country
There are a great many of them in
Europe, In this country they have
been constantly threatened with pro-
secution. Many states have modified
their. laws so as to legalize these or
ganizations, and the last national con-
ventions of the two great parties, Re-
.publicans and Democrats, passed res
olutionS indorsing legislation of this
kind There is, as | understand, a
general demand for it among the far

laid Farm Land Loans
|Urges Wisconsin Man
REPRESENTATIVE NELSON Is For
REVOLVING FUND OF FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS

Washington, May l6.-Nation-
wide financial aid for the farmers
is contained in bill introduced in
the House by Representative A. P.
Nelson, of Wisconsin, who has en-
listed for it the support of the Sec
retary of the Treasury Mellon and
the Farm Loan Board, as we'll a.
several presidents of Federal land
banks.
In this bill it is proposed that there
shall be created in the Treasury a
farm-loan revolving fund of fifty
million dollars, which shall relieve
the long-term farrn-loan situation
and release capital for short-term
paper, so as to enable the farmers
to improve their property, extend
their live stock, and purchase i'm
plements.
Mr.. Nelson intends that the de-
posts throughout the country of the
100000 fund provided by the
government shall be secured by Fed
eral farm-lOan bonds or other secur-
tiles to be approved by the Secretary
Of the Treasury in an amount equal
to said deposits, such securities to
bear interest at a rate which shall
be one-half of one per cent in excess
of the rate borne by the last bond is
sue Of the bank in which such de-
posit is made.
i know of nothing more import
ant in national legislation at the
present time than enhancing the ag-
ricultural interest of the country and
carrying it over its present depress-
ing condition" said Mr.. Nelson, in
explanation of the measure. The
farmer purchases go per cent of the
manufactured articles of the nation.
He cannot have purchasing power
unless he has extension of credits.
Private banks are running along so
closely that they cannot well extend
it. Therefore, the government must
lend assistance. The Federal Farm
Loan system has worked well, but in
this emergency it cannot function un
less the Republican majority in Con-

mers, and their organizations have
practically agreed upon this form of
a bill.
THE objection made to these Or
CARNATIONS at present is that they
violate the Sherman Antitrust Act,
and that is upon the theory that each
farmer is a separate business entity.
When he combines with his neighbor
for the purpose Of securing better
treatment in the disposal Of his crops,
he is charged with a conspiracy or
combination contrary to the Sherman
Antitrust Act. Business men can
combine by putting their money into
corporations, but it is impractical for
farmers to combine their farms into
similar corporate form. The object
Of this bill is to modify the laws un-
der which business organizations are
now formed, so that farmers may
take advantage Of the form OF or
ganization that is used by business
concerns. 1t is objected in some
quarters that this repeals the Sher-
man Antitrust Act as to farmers.
That is not true any more than it
is true that combination of two or
three corporations violates the act"
REAvlS FOR FARMERS.
Representative Frank Reavis, Of
Nebraska, one Of the Republican
leaders Of the House, is decidedly
for the farmer. In defending the bill
permitting agricultural associations
under the law, he said:
Il come from district that is al
most exclusively agricultural. | ia
vor this proposition because be-
lieve, in the first instance, it will
prove beneficial to those whom rep
resent. favor it because hope that
II VIII increase the price OF thelr
products.
The gentleman from Massachu-
sets (Mr. Walsh is no more unset
fish in his opposition to this than |
am in approving it. The Very reason
which exctes my favor is the reason
why he opposes it. favor an in
crease in the value Of farm products
because my people sell them. He
disapproves Of the increase in price
of farm products because his people
buy them, and we are both on the
same footing, so far as the purpose
which prompts our action on this
bill is concerned But it goes beyond
that, gentlemen. Agriculture ard the
interests Of the farmer lie at the very
foundation OF this nations prosper
