best State in the Union, Mr.. Watson
declared. He said that it is a well
known fact that the peanuts deliver
ed to the Association were the best
grown in the state this year, because
the Association has been strict in
its grades from the first. After these
uniformly better peanuts were de-
livered to the Association, the best
of these from the best sections were
selected. There are few localities
in the state that produce uniformly
better peanuts than any other. The
pick of the peanuts from these sec
tiohs were taken and reselected.
Then they were sent through a re-
cleaning plant, with the result that
the seed finally selected represent
the acme of the crop in the state.
Mr.. Watson was asked if he did
not believe that the Associations
campaign for better seed would
cause an overproduction of peanuts
next year, especially in view, Of the
high prices the Association has been
so influential in bringing. He said
that he thought that high price cot
ton and the lahore shortage would
prevent too many peanuts being
planted next year.

SELECTION OF
SEED PEANUTS

ALBANY, Ca, Nov. 26.-Just a!
better grades of cotton and Of corr
have been produced by care in the
selection of seed, there promises tc
be brought forth in Georgia a bet
ter grade of peanuts, a more pro-
ductive grade and a finer quality
This promise is through the high
grade seed the Georgia Peanut
Growers Cooperative Association is
selecting and offering to its members
and to others who may be interested
in better peanuts in Georgia.
In all the years peanuts have been
grown in Georgia, nothing has ever
been done to increase the quality of
the product, and the better-seed
campaign Of the new cooperative
marketing organization is exported
to have marked influence for good
on the peanut industry of this state.
So many inquiries we're received
at the headquarters office of the
Peanut Association in Albany, ac-
cording to ]. ]. Watson, Production
and Sales Manager, that it was de-
cided to offer seed peanuts for sale
to the members and to others who
might be interested. Careful selec-
ton has resulted, he said, in the
Association being now able to offer
the farmers of the state the highest
quality of seed ever available for
either Spanish or runner peanuts.
Mr.. Watson, explained, however,
that all members of the Peanut AS
ISOLATION are being urged strongly
to plant nothing but the Spanish
Peanut for commercial purposes, as
this peanut brings . better price and
has earned for Georgia the reputa-
ton it enjoys of producing the high
est quality of peanuts in the world.
While the two varieties will not
"cross", yet they easily become mix

the grade is lower when they reach
the markets and the price is accord
ingly less to the grower. Georgia
has the reputation, Mr.. Watson said,
and justly so, of producing the pur-
est and the best quality Spanish Pea
nut in the world, a fact which has
helped the Association in securing
such favorable prices for the pea
nuts of it's members. Georgia pea
nuts are today bringing the highest
price of an ypeanuts in the world,
he explained, and if the Association
is going to continue that altogether
desirable condition, which has helped
every peanut grower in the state
this year, it's members must con-
tinue to grow better and better pea
nuts-in other words, help their
Association in it's campaign to get
"a better price for a better product"
The Peanut Association was able
to get the best seed ever offered to
peanut growers by selecting the best

First Real Game of Sea-
son; Expect Fast Game

The football game between the
High School and the State Training
School which is schedules for this
afternoon at three o'clock will be a
good test of the strength of the high
school eleven according to Coach
Dutch Houser. The Training School
usually has strong aggregation,
said Houser, and will undoubtedly
put up oiuch opposition.
The High School team is in excel
lent condition as result of their
regular practives and of the game
with the Alumni last Wednesday
and all of the men are back in the
lineup. The Training School has
been practicing since the opening Of
the season and should be going good
The field at the ball park was
marked off this morning, goal posts

Metcalf to Have Charge of
Frosh Squad This Year,
Says Spaulding

Haskell Indians football team which
the University of Minnesota will play
at Minneapolis on October 10 is
made up of big, rangy men who know
the game, play a long schedule, and
expect to win a majority Of their
games according to WORD brought
back by Leonard Frank, 1ine-coach
under Bill Spaulding. Frank made
business trip to Kansas City last
week and ran over to Lawrence to
talk to the Indians coach. Minnesota
will have a fast and spectacular,
game when the Gophers and redskins
clash, he predicted.
The Minnesota lineup Of assistant
coaches has been practically COM
pleted for the coming season, Head
coach Spaulding announced. Bills
principal subordinates in gridiron
training will be T. N. Metcalf, who
will have charge of the freshmen,
and Leonard Frank, who will again
take charge of the linemen. George
Houser, who like Frank, is Mime
sofa star of former years, will help
with the scrubs and Blaine McCusick,
wrestling coach, has been assigned
to help Metcalf whip the freshmen
into shape and teach them the>funda-
mentals of the game.
r. T. Taylor, who last year was
coach of the Aurora high school ath-
letic teams and there developed the
quint which won the state champion
ship at the tournament in Kenwood
armory has been added to the staff
Of instructors in physical education

he will be another of the assistants
with freshmen.

Spaulding has not yet been determin-
ed.
AS usual Spaulding as on-commit-
tai regarding the outlook for his
1923 football team.
"If we can find team of athletes,
we will probably make showing
this fall" he said. 1.-THE best football
players are the men who arc all :
around athletes. Last year some Of
our men we're athletes and some were
not. I'm hoping that some of those
who weren't will prove this fall to
have developed into the real thing.
And Of course we will have nu-
cleus of few players as good - any
team can show" ~ a.
Spaulding thinks Michigan and
Chicago will be the teams that will
make the most noise in the confer
ence this fall. He expects to see
\ Yost's men travel particularly fast.
Whether Ollie Aas, last years cap
tain and center, will return to the
gridiron this fall is still preblem-
atical according to SpAulding. Ia his
recent communications Aas, who Is
law student, has been noncommit-
tai as to his plans. Cooper, student
from Aberdeen, 8. d. who will be
eligible this year and Rollitt, spbsti-
tute center on last year1 team will
battle with other candidates for the
passing point II Aas does not come
back.

hatsman, the proper batsman is
called out. Incidentally no bases
can be run on any act of an i'm
proper batsman.
Since Smith was the the improper
batsman, the umpire in charge
should have called Smith out when
J Jones batted out of turn. The two
runs that crossed the plate are void,
as no bases can be run on the triple
made by the improper batsman,
Jones.
The first batter in the next inning
should be Jones, as he follows Smith
in the batting order. Smith was the
third out in the previous inning be-
cause Jones had batted out of order.
