AND NOW THE LARK's CLAIM
Is Presented as Friend Of the Farmer
and Foe of Boil Weevil,
cAnderson Daily Mail.)
What birds eat boil Weevi:s?

What birds eat boil Weevi:s?
The partridge, or quail, has the
reputation for eating them, and is
being protected by farmers, but Mr..
Quail does not deserve this reputa-
tion as weevil eater as much as
do some Of his cousins and neigh
bors.
William Beatty, Of near Iva, killed
q field lark recently and an exami-
nation Of the craw showed that num-
bers Of adult weevils had been eaten
by this bird, The lark, in fact, is
one Of tho farmers best allies in the
fight against the boil weevil.
Young Beatty Is not likely to kill
more larks just for the fun of the
thing, for, though he did not know
IL before, he now knows good and
we'll that the lark does eat boil wee
wills, and q lot Of them. Eating the
boil weevils during the winter and
early spring months is doing more
to keep down the pest than eating
them in the summer time, for every
adult weevil eaten now prevents the
breeding of that many more later.
A long list Of birds is given in a
recel t government statement, many
Of which birds are found locally. The
yellow-hammer, wood-pecker and
other insect-eating birds in Anderson
county all eat the weevils.
Six species Of larks are weevil-eat-
ers, three species of blackbirds, six
species Of native sparrows, the pipit,
three specise Of wrens, two Of tit
mice, and others. Of 1OS quails kill
ed and examined, only one bird was
found to eat weevils, and only one
weevil was found in it's stomach.

bulwarks in the play of the worlds
champions. Proof of the hard-won
character of their recent games is the
fact that four of them were captured By
scores Of Z TO 6.
Starting west after three victories
over Philadelphia. the Yankees were
stopped by brilliant pitching in two
out of four games with Chicago and
face the Browns in the third and last
game of their all-important series Mon
day with the lead at stake.
Consistently good pitching, especially
by Bush and Shawkey. plus stellar de-
~fensive work, are the factors upon
which New York bases its hope for
winning another championship, while
the Browns. lacking in steady box work.
depend chiefly on their hard hitting n
versatile attack for victory.
Sisler Beats Cobb Record
Early in the week the Browns
chances apparently were dimmed by an
injury that forced their all-round star,
George Sisler, out of the game, but he
returned to the lineup Saturday and
Sunday pounded out n hit that brought
his consecutive batting streak to Al
games, breaking Ty Cobb's modern
mark Of 40. set in 1911, and putting
him within three of the record for all
time. A games, set by Wee Willie
Keller, in 1897.

HurIs Browns
TO 81 Victory; Half
Game Behind Yanks
Pitching for St. Louis Evens Series,
Win Today Would Put Westerners in
Lead for League Honors.

st. Louis, Sept. 17.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press. Schubert "Shucks'
Pruett, phenomenal young pitcher for
the st. Louis Browns, held the New
York Yankees to five scattered hits,
struck out eight men and the Browns
Sunday climbed back to within a half
game of the leading Yanks by defeat
ing the visitors, 5 to /, in the second
game of a series of three, which, it is
believed, will determine the champion
team of the American league. BY
winning Sunday the Browns evened
up the series. New York having won
the first game Saturday.
The pitching of pruett was sensa-
tional. Babe Ruth's home run over
the right fields bleachers was the only
solid hit made by the Yanks. 1t was
Babes thirty-third homer Of the sea-
son. Pruett's control was well nigh
perfect, issuing only one base on balls.
= Kenneth Williams took the lead
among major home run clouters by
slamming out his thirty-eighth circuit
drive in the eighth inning. Sisler,
who had walked, was on base. Sisler
cracked out a single in the sixth in
ming. making it the forty-first con-
%secutive game in which he has hit
safely The single broke the record
created by Ty Cobb of Detroit in
1911 when Cobb hit in 40 straight
games.
Witt Back In Game
Lawton Whitley Witt, center field
err for New York, who was knocked
unconscious when struck by a pop
bottle, presumably thrown by a fan
in Saturdays game. was back in the
lineup Sunday.
The game was a pitchers battle
between Pruett and Waite Hoyt for
five innings. The Browns managed
to gather several hits but not oppor-
tunely, while Pruett held the Yankees
helpless.
Hoyt was touched up for three runs
in seven innings, and Jones, who took
up the hurting duty after Mcmillan
batted for Hoyt in the eighth, allowed
two more markers.
In the sixth inning, Ruth. who in
his first two times at bat had walked
and famed, connected for his thirty
third home run this year.
But the locals came right back and
took the lead by scoring three runs.
Foster walked, sisler singled. and
Foster scored on Williams single.

GIANTS SEEM SURE
Of RETAINING TITLE
IN NATIONAL LEAGUE
Apparently Have Cinched Their
Eighth Title Since 1900,
Batting Is Good.

New York, Sept. 17.-While the New
York Giants, barring a startling revers-
al of form, apparently have clinched
their eighth national league champion
ship since 1900, the New York Yam
KEGS and st. Louis Browns are waging
a sensational battle for the American
league pennant that may remain in
doubt until the last few games Of the
season. The Browns squared the count
in the little worlds series Sunday by
taking the second game from the Yam
KEGS. and are within a half game of
the league leaders.
The Giants, overcoming pitching
weakness by aggressiveness typical of
McGraw's ~aggregations, battled their
way to seven straight victories last
week before the streak was broken by
Cincinnati in the second game of a
d~oubleheader. Despite defeat again
Sunday at the hands of Cincinnati,
while Pittsburgh was idle, the New
Workers hold a lead of five and a half
games over the Pirates. The Bucca-
neers have a fighting chance, but to
win they must take all of their re-
manning IL games while the Giants
break ever in their remaining IA.

Etiquette Of the
Summer Hotel

IT'S not good form to polish
the diamond in your ring or
shirt front with a napkin
while at dinner. Usage demands
that you carry q chamois skin
for this purpose.
It Is not customary to ask the
hotel clerk how much money any
young gentleman guest has in or
der to determine whether he
would be a good match for your
daughter. It Is much better to
write to town and ask some OF
the young mans friends.
While It is permissible to pare
the finger nails with a penknifs
while talking with a society
dowager on the hotel veranda, It
Is much better form to use .
nickle-plated nail clipper, which,
Of course, is the correct imple-
ment.
If You are q strange young
man in the hotel, 1t Is customary
to have a proper introduction to
q society bud before asking her
to dance or to stroll on the beach.
She Is liable to have an athletic
brother or fiance, and some Of
tnese boys pack an awful wallop.
II is not the best form to ask
the athletic young lifeguard at
the beach what he does for a liv-
ing in the Winter. That Is q
mystery that has never been
solved. Il is as much Of a mys-
terry as what the ice-skating in
structors do in the Summer.
fome lifeguards are millionaires'
sons, but not very many.
When you ask any rich man at
he hotel how he made his money,
,articularly If you are figuring on
marrying his daughter, it is best
to 60 about it automatically and
not ask him right out in SO many
words. 1t may be none Of your
business.
If you are a city barber and
tend Disgusting yourself as
,reign count, it is well to find out
cforehand just what hotels your
gular customers are going to
;sit and keep away from these
