The Yankees believe they have the
best pitching staff in the league.
1t is possible they have. Certainly,
looking at thhe records, they have
that little thing. But, when you
figure that these pitchers have to
go out and win ball games on the
field, II may be different
Sam Jones did not impress one as
a marvel on Wednesday. Mays
looked very good on Thursday. 1t is
possible that some of the others
may not shape up so well before the
season ends.
The Yankees have, on paper,
the strongest pitching staff In the
league. They have, on paper, the
hardest hitting ball club In the
league. And yet, In the past.
these two things have not always
won pennants.
It is possible for the Washington
club to win a pennant, II they think
they can. 1t is possible for many
think II can be done.
A veteran major league player,
looking at the Griffs working out
at the ball yard the other day, said:
"If that gang has any CUTS IL
could win the pennant this year,
not next year"
II Is well for the Griffs, beginning
with Walter johnson and Zeb Milan
and going right down the line to
the newest rookie on the team, to
understand this. II they will only
get the idea into their heads that
they have a chance to win the ban
ner, they are more than likely to
go out and do just that thing. There
is that much psychology in baseball.
If a ball club can imagine itself
worth while. it frequently is. And
Il NEVER is fit can't get into that
frame of mind.
Zeb Milan has the malsings of
q pennant-winning ball club. He
lacks pitchers. but In everything
else he has the stuff. He has a
fIrst-class infleld, a fair outfieId,
a first-class catcher In Pat Char
rity and questionable pitching
staff.
1t was The Kids last fight.
IL Zeb Milan's pitchers will de-
liver the goods, the team is quite
likely to be up around the top when
the season ends. And il those
pitchers fail TO deliver, Clark Grif-
fifth will have to wait until next
year.
The Griffmen, equipped with the
Yankee pitchers, would win this
years banner hands down. Give
them such workmen as Mays, Hoyt,

Fertilizer Situation
Progressive Farmer.)


II Ia an accepted fact that when
the prices OF crops are low. higher
yields per acre must be striven for.
Fertilizers have been the chief de-
pendence of tho Southern farmer for
pushing up yields in the past. This
year he would. of coure, like to have
fertilizers 30 cheap that he could use
them to the limit. But 1t seems that
fertilizers will not be sold as cheaply
as they have been in the past.
On the part Of the fertilizer manu-.
facturer there Ia q claim that they
cannot possibly get back to pre-war
prices this year. One reason given
as to why this cannot BIO done Is. that
the industry Is carrying a very heavy
load of farmers accounts that came
over from 1920. In order TO carry
these notes the manufacturers have
been forced to borrow heavily. Yet.
in spite Of this, losses have already
occurred on 1920 accounts. In addition
there was considerable material
bought at peak prices last summer
Cor use in manufacturing mixed ferti.
lizers this year. On this they stand
to lose.
Tho fertilizer industry is under
writing the farmers OF the South to
the extent OF about s150.000,00O. Had
the fertilizer manufacturers closed In
and collected all the farmers notes
when they fell due 1t is probable that
there would have been widespread
financial disaster.
Instead of q ruthless policy. teller.
ance has been accorded the farmer
This policy has burdened the manu-
facturer so heavily that 1t Ia claimed
that fertilizer prices cannot be re
duced any further during this sea
