TWO NEAR The TOP
StrOhm and Rose Hitting at
.464 Clip.
Topeka Occupies Fourth Place
i'm Team Batting.

Outfielder Rose and Shortstop
Strohm are leading the Topeka team
in batting. according to the averages
compiled by Joe n. Groom. secretary
of the southwestern league. These
two Solons are tied at .464 but if
there is any advantage it lies with
Rose inasmuch as he had taken part
in thirteen games when the averages
played in only eight. This is due to
the fact that the shortstop was out
of the game for a time on account of
an injury Yendes, in five games,
third Topeka player on the list.
The real heavy hitter IN the league,
however, is Willis, BartIesville left
fielder, who is swatting the ball at a
clip of ass. Munsel, Muskogee pitcher,
tops the list with an average of $50,
and Nichols. Muskogee catcher. has n
mark of .4S0 to his credit. but neither
has played in as many games as Willis
and Rose. Rose and Stronm are tied
for fourth place among all of the
players in the league.
Four SoIons Hit Above 800.
Strohm. in eight games. was at bat
twenty-eight times, scored eight runs,
and made thirteen hits for nineteen
bases. Rose. in thirteen games. was
at bat fifty-siX times, scored twelve
runs. and made twenty-six hits for
thirty-seven bases, including five dou-
bles, two triples and a home run.
Catcher Benn is the fourth Topeka
player who is hitting the ball for
mark above 800, his average in ten
games being $40.
The other Topeka PLAYERS are swat
ting the ball in the following order:
Hahn .267, Bockskopf $50, Bross .225.
Hardy (now released) .1S1, Wiskeno
100, Pierce .A54. The list is incom-
plete as it includes only those players
who have participated in five or more
games. This week an entirely new
list will appear, and the way the
Solons have been hitting IN the home
series many of them should show an
Improvement.

The building at Dove Creek. which
contained the pool hall and the office of
the Pioneer Chieftsin, was destroyed by
fire Tuesday night. We understand
that the building and its contents were
an entire loss. Just what insurance, if
any, was carried we have not learned.
c. V. Kinney, editor and publisher of
the Chieftain, was in durango at the
time. He was notified Wednesday
morning by phone of his loss and re-
turned to Dove Creek as quickly as
possible. Just what plans he has made
we have not learned; but no doubt the
Chieftain will be published from the

Why High School Grads Should Al
tend College.

1t has been estimated that the in
trinsic value of young man or woman,
weighing $50 pounds is about $500.
There is $500 worth of fat; there is
iron enough to make few nails; enough
magnesium for sky rocket or two;
enough phosphorus for 22OO matches;
enough albumen for 100 eggs: spoon
full of sugar, and pinch of salt.
Human beings are not worth very much
by weight.
But the high school graduate IS train
ing in high school is worth So. 90 a day
to him while he is in high school. based
upon the increased earning power dur
ing the average life. Nine dollars
day for going to high school is good
wages. Still better, the young man or
woman, who goes four more years to
college, will be earning $55.55 day
during these four year, again based up
on the life time earning power of the
average college graduate, as compared
with the average earning power of the
high school graduate.
In dollars and cents, high school
education pays; but a college education

LARGE And BETTER
STOCK SHOW ENTRY

Entries for the National Western
Stock Show are practically all in
despite early fear in some quarters
that general condition of the industry
might hold down entries in the Stock
Show, the reverse seems to be the
case. The 1922 National Western
Stock Show, to be held January IA
to 81, promises to be bigger and bet
ter than ever. In many of the de-
partments, notably the dairy section
and in carloads of fat hogs, the en-
tries are in considerably larger than
one year ago. In most sections en-
tries are fully as large as they were
last year, and the show management
announces that all divisions will be
well filled.
In the feeder cattle division the en-
tries are larger than a year ago, to-
falling close to 125 carloads. In quail
ity this division of the show is ex-
pected to eclipse any former exhibit
ton, due to the abundance of feed
available everywhere for carrying the
stock through to show time. Gen.
eral improvement in the quality of
the stock on the western ranges will
also be in evidence.
Carload fat cattle entries are larg-
er also, than one year ago, while en-
tries of carloads of sheep are about
the same volume as in 1921.
The work of tabulating the entries
for the big catalog is rapidly pro-
crossing in the office of the secre-
tary.
"We are highly pleased with the
prospect for a big show" said Gen.
eral Manager Harry L. Youngerman
this morning. "The entries are large
in all departments and all classes viii
be we'll filled. Many Of the classes
are larger than they have been fol
years, and all r. bringing forth spler
did competition. Not in years have
we been able to offer to the show
visitors such an evening horse show
as we will give them this year. Will
the railroad rates from all over thu
west reduced for the first time in fou.
years, we look for a very large at
tendance at the coming show, and
have no hesitation in saying it will b.
we'll worth a visit from all those VIII,
can possibly attend"

TANNING SKINS.

An excellent formula for tanning
skins is given below:
Cut off useless parts and soften
the skins by soaking in warm water.
Take away the fatty part from the
inside, then soak the skins in tepid
water for two hours. Mix equal
parts, of borax, saltpeter and Glauber
salts( sulphate of soda) about one
third of IN ounce to each skin, with
water to make a thin paste. Spread
with a brush over the inside of the
skin, applying more on the thicker
parts than On the thinner. Double
the skins together, flesh side in
ward, and place in a cool place.
After standing twenty-four hours
wash the skin clean and apply the
following mixture in the same way as
before: One ounce of sal soda, me-
third ounce borax, two ounces hard
white soap, melted slowly together
without coming to a boil. Fold to-
gether again and put in a warm place
for twenty-four hours. Then dissolve
three nee alum, seven ounces salt,
n and one-half ounces s~aleratus in
sufficient hot rain water to saturate
the skin. When cool enough not to
scald the hands, soak the skin in it
for twelve hours; wiring out and hang
up to dry. When dry repeat the soak
ing and drying two or three times I'M
til the skin is sufficiently soft. Last,
smooth the inside with fine sandpaper
and pumice stone.

WINTER FLOWER GARDENS

Those empty, useless shocking win
dow and porch boxes may be made to
serve a useful purpose in adding to
the beauty of the home in winter. The
dried-up plants that occupied such a
prominent place during the summer
may be replaced at this season of the
year by a collection of twigs and
branches and even small trees that
will provide a pleasing eject through
out the winter. In the background
may be grouped small trees or bran
ches of evergreens such as pines, red
cedar, spruce and arbor vitate and in
the foreground shoots with bright
colored berries, such as bittersweet,
barberry, coralberry, snowberry and
rose hips. To add to the striking
effect produced by these materials
a few fruiting spikes of sumac may
be used.
First loosen the soil in the box with
a trowel or an old knife; then plant
the twigs three or four inches deep
and pack the dirt about the stems so
that the winter winds will not blow
them over. Then add a liberal supply
of water.

AGRICULTURAL YEAR
BOOK FOR DISTRIBUTION

The Agricultural year book for
1920, published annually by the de-
partment of agriculture at Washing
ton, D. c., is now available. Con-
gresham w. j. Mccormick has stat
ed he has a limited number of these
books for distribution among his con-
stituents in the first congressional
district and will be glad to fill re-
quests for them upon receipt of a
letter from anyone desiring same.
Due to the fact that he has but a
few hundred books for distribution
it will be necessary to send them out
in the order wherein requests are re-
ceived.
The Yearbook is published annual
ly by the department of agriculture
and is one of the most valuable gov
eminent publications. The edition
for 1920 contains 888 pages and dis
cusses every subject pertinent to
farming and forestry. The articles
are by the best known experts on
these subjects both in the United
States and in other countries. The
book is profusely illustrated. 1t is
distributed free, no postage being
necessary. Requests should be adj
dressed to Congressman w. j. Nc
Cormick, Room 466, House office
building, Washington, D. G.
Mr.. Mccormick also wishes to
state to those who requested flower
and vegetable seed under the recent
offer, that the distribution of seed
for Montana will commence about
February 1, 1922.

forego this type if we would have our
room beautiful. There are simple
line sofas, not too large; gate-leg ia
bles with great merit for just this
kind of room; drop-leaf tables and
small stands to use beside the sofa
and on which a lamp can be placed
to advantage; there are stools made
to the height of a chair seat which,
when used with a small comfortable
chair, give the tired member of the
family a chance to recline. And this
small comfortable chair can be we'll
upholstered and still have shapely
shapely delicate lines. There are tip<
top tables or if you prefer "pie-crust"
which are large enough to hold a few
books and a lamp, but not too large
for a small room. There are simple
table desks and spinet desks, all of
which lend an air of permanent beau
ty to the low-ceiled American farm
living room.
But furniture is only one import
ant factor in the making of this de-
lightful room. The wall color, floor
coverings and window drapes as well
as the placing of pictures will have
much to do with making or marring
this room as a thing Of beauty, but
these must come in another issue
