Catcher Picinich, then playing with
Washington, from the game. With
the sacks loaded and the count three
and two Bill called the third strike
for the final out, a curve ball that
broke over the plate. Pinch pro-
tested loudly and then took his
shower. The name Picinich vas a
tongue twister to Bill and before the
start of the game he had shortened
it to Spinach. Here is how he ex-
planned the passing of Picinich when
we got into the dressing-room.
Called Him Spinach
"Nhat do you think of Spinach,
the vegetable catcher on the Wash
ington club? 1 called the third one
right in the alley and he turned
around and started to sing the Wa
bash Blues"
"What did you do?" I asked Bill.
'I told him that everything he said
to me was old stuff and unless he
had a new set of words to beat it to
the club house." He did.
The first time Guthrie saw the
New York club he got into an argu-
ment on the very first play of the
game. Whitley Witt hit a slow
grounder to the infield and gave
Guthrie a hair-line decision at first.
Bill called him out. AS Witt ran back
to protest. Miller Higgins, who had
been coaching at third base, also
rushed over to join Witt in the
chorus. Before either had a chance
to a much, Guthrie shouted:
1.-THE gate for you, Witt, and you
can take the bat-boy with YOU" said
Guthrie. as he pointed to the dimin-
utive Higgins. The sally brought
forth a smile from even the irritated
manager of the Yanks and he beat
1t with Witt, almost before the game
had started.

SEPARATE PENS FOR PULLETS
BY Keeping Breeders Apart From Rest
of Flock They Can Be Handled
Differently.

II Is often desirable TO keep the pull
lets and the older hens separate. II
may be that the flock owner will want
to use more of the tested hens for
breeders, and by keeping them apart
from the rest of the flock they can be
handled n little differently, says the
United States Department of Agrlenl-
ture. The yearling hens, or sometimes
older ones, and the well-developed pul.
lets are better for the breeding flock
because the larger eggs produced VIII

Navel I'll, Scours and Constipation Are
Three Common Troubles to

As 1t appears that the supply OF
horsepower on farms is beginning to

Of the Minnesota unlversity's division
Of animal industry, contends II will
surely pay to give a little extra atten-
ton to both mares and foals at foaling
time. He says:
Young colts are subject To three
common troubles that cause a heavy
death rate, namely. navel i'll, scours,
and constipation. To guard against
navel i'll every sanitary %preeaution pos
sible should be taken, such as having
the mare foal In a clean thoroughly
disinfected box stall, carefully disln-
fecting the navel cord of the colt
shortly after 1t is born, and washing
the udder Of the mare with a weak
non-poisonous disinfectant solution.

shows the same reading. The value
Of the resistance in the phantom cir
cult Is the approximate antenna re-
sistance at that wave length. This
method of measuring the antenna re-
sistanee Is by no e accurate,
but will serve as a value from which
comparative data can be obtained. by
plotting "A curve representing the an
tenna resistance at different wave
lengths it Is possible TO determine
whether the antenna being used has
its minimum resistance at the wave
length on which the transmitting Is

Perhaps by changing the physical
dimensions of the antenna the mini
mum resistance can be shifted to the

If a counterpoise is not used, the
effect on the antenna resistance can
readily be measured, approximately,
by erecting Il temporary n and
measuring the antenna resistance be-

some nearby object will cause the

COLONEL GREEN A RADIO FAN
Son of Hetty Has an Elaborate APP
paratus at His Home In
New Bedford.

&. Round Hills, the country home of
Col. Edward II. r. Green, son of the
late Hetty Green, at New Bedford,
Mass. sounds like a haunted estate
since its owner has been bitten by the
radio bug, says the New York World.
In the sun room of the house stock
quotations, weather reports, music and
speeches flow all day from the receiy-
ing station there. In the b%oathouse
come the booming tones of the ampli-
fer.
That's all there is now, but Colonel
Green has not done yet. Within a few
days his new six-room studio, housing
the most complete ~broadcasting sta
tlon In the country, will be finished.
Colonel Green is not enjoying his
radio pleasures alone. The first try

nelghborhood reeling off concerts and
talk from Newark and Schenectady
for the delighted farmers.
But the ampliier is the c~olonels

The chances are they will not lay

clalist of the Alabama experiment sta
tlon believes. 1t is usually advisable
to standardlze the flock by having all
of one breed, but there are special on
ditions under which the raising of two
breeds Is advised. Those having mon

develop a purebred flock, the United

vises. This can easily be done within
two or three years by buying a few
settings of Eggs of the desired breed
for Matching purposes. Recent inves-
legations at the U. S. experiment farm
indicate that quicker results may often
be obtained by such a purchase than
by grading up the mongrel stock.

Not as Soldiers Boosting of Victory But Broad
Minded Citizens


War in its sordid details is a shock to our finer instincts and depress-
ing to moral standards, yet there is something Of the ideal about COM
munny of service in a righteous war that touches the nature of the noble
and elevates the spirit of the patriotic. And, whether recognized or not,
such service most certainly leaves the devotee with a broader and clearer
conception Of his obligations.
As we recede from the period of the great war, We think less Of its
righteous discipline, its deprivation and drudgery that often deeply I'M
presses us at the time, and come to cherish more highly the memory OF
afectonate comradeship and mutual sacrifice, and recall more proudly
the patriotic devotion of our associates.
No army of any such size as ours was ever raised, equipped, trained
and sent to battle in so short a time and none yer fought more CALAMITY
nor with such strikingly vital effect upon the outcome.
Without awaiting the verdict of the future, let us today, not as SOL
diers Boosting of victory, but as broadminded citizens contemplate the
fullness of or national effort, and measure its bearing upon ourselves
as men,, both in our relation TO the nation as q whole and to our
countrymen AZ Individuals.

Capital Punishment Is Lawful and Is
Necessary, Reasonable and Just


By IT. y JHAMBEKITN, chicago Crme Commission.
Capital punishment is lawful. In the present state of society be-
leye 1t TO be necessary, reasonable and just.
SentimentaLsts, well meaning and sincere, but badly misguided, are
partly responsible for the rising murder rate in the United States be-
cause they are giving most Of their attention to the consideration Of
the murderer rather than to his victim.
Another reason why murders ire becoming more numerous is that
execution is not inflicted in all cases Of deliberate murder.
Let me illustrate. Illinois has a statute providing capital punish
ment for murder The same statute also provides that the sentence NAV
be from fourteen years to life Imprisonment. In 1921 there were POS
murders in Cook county. During the sam period 25 defendants were
arraigned on murder charges. There were ffyfye convictions. Forty-ax
were sentenced 10 the penitentary and 10 the reformatory and only SIX
were sentenced 10 hang In other words, less than 3 per cent Of the muir
derers convicted in Cook county last year suffered capital punishment.

The Hartford election is of interest servatives an opportunity to laud con servatism. Politically it tells little. al- publican victory" of course, by the mouthpiece of the organization. The republicans elected most of their candidates on the general ticket, for the board of education and the higher school committee, but one republican candidate for constable was not elect ed. Five republicans and five demo- council. The proposal to consolidate the school districts was defeated. The wife of the executive secretary to Mayor Kinsella was elected to the board of education.
 The first interesting point is to try to discover any political significance in an election in which not half the
  lively unimportant event. There was evidently no contest on the persons on the general ticket" otherwise greater vote would have been brought out.
 The defeat of the proposition to consolidate the school districts is ra- ther interesting at this time in the light of Superintendent of School Holmes belief that the state should pay more of the school expenses throughout the state. Certainly this idea tends toward an approval of con- solidation, rather than the reverse. But as regular" republicans will see republican triumphs in almost any thing, so conservatives in Hartford voted to approve the old way rather than in new, possibly better way.
