YANKS HAVE THE EDGE
higgins Has Better Pitching Stnff
for Final Pennant Chase.

New York. Aug. SO.-If it GENES to

as IL most certainly will, the New

the st. Louis Browns~in the one de-
partment that ultimately wins and
loses all ball games-pitching.
Urban Shocker, Browns ACE" is
the best right handler in the American
league, but one man can't pitch a
ball club into a pennant. The fact
that the Browns are up there at all
is due to the early season victories
of Vangilder, Pruett. Kolp and others.
The fact that the Browns now trail
the Yanks by a game and half
thanks to the Yanks' winning three
out of four in the series just closed, is
due to the late season of the top OF

Manager Huggins, who knows
plenty about baseball in general, can
not be mentioned in the same breath
with Lee Fohl when 1t comes down to
a matter of developing pitchers and
nursing them along. Higgins has had
nothing to do with the sudden return
to work of Hoyt, Mays or Jones or
of the steady all season performances

merely happened.

MARKET IS BAD
MiIIers Still Find Conditions
Are Unsatisfactory.
Prices Are Not Adjusted To
Make Business Normal.

Conditions in the flour trade of To-
peka continue thoroly unsatisfactory
There has been no marked impetus
in the flour trade during the past
week. so far as domestic buyers are
concerned. and there is practically a
total absence of foreign trade. The
ideas of buyers in round lots on
prices. are below the market, and
can not be met by the local Ilillers-
The retail sale of flour to families is
far below the standard, principally
Que to the strikes. The European
trade situation is influenced so unfa-
the other side of the water and the
lower quotations of Canadian pro-
ducers. that the foreign market seems
impossible.
Bakers Buying In Small Way.
Bakers are buying flour in order to
piece out their stocks. but only take
in round lots for future delivery when
the price says below the normal level.
Topeka mills have been, for the most
part, running only on part time dur
ing the past week 1t is the general
impression that the cost of milling
will have to be reduced, and the price
cut in that way, before there is any
noticeable improvement in the situa-
ton.
Prices Are Slightly Higher.
The market has fluctuated but lit
tie during the past week Prices to-
dav are slightly higher than a week
ago, but the movement of the prod
ucts of the mills has not been stimu-
lated by either reductions or strength
ening of the price. Quotations as fol-
lows: Hard winter wheat, short pat
ent. $1,000 go; straight, $50 q go;
first clear. $4.2O a $40; second clear,
$500 3.95.
Feed Prices Tend Higher.
There is a marked demand for mill
feed, contrasting to the dizziness of
the flour market. There has been an
increase in the price. d4ong with the
strengthening of the market which
has apparently not affected the de-
mand- Bran is quoted at from 75c to
S5c per lee. and gray shorts at from
$1.10 to $1.20.

RECEIPT FOR LOWER TAXES

CITY auditor long familiar with tax problems
suggests four methods whereby citizens can OBJ
tain lower tax rate. They are:
"Aiiiliaton OF all taxpayers with some civic or
ganza:ion.
Formation of bureau OF information and com
plants and suggestions.
'Noting down needless bond proposals and add-
.ional tax rates.
Assumption OF greater share OF responsibility
by renters
The suggestions arc aS practical as they are SIM
pie They all point in the same direction-to tamil
arity OF the citizen with the administration OF his
oca government, and his association with other citi'
nens in such organizations as shall insure that the
public voice will be heard.
The same authority advises public Officials in
,heir turn. to pay more heed to their business, to
which profeerng contractors are always giving con
siderable attention.
Here too the attention OF the citizen comes in II
knowing what kind OF officials elected and II
keeping track OF their activities after election.
\ little OF this sort OF doctrine will do more tC
bring taxes down than any elaborate legislation.
