BRUINS SAFELY ENTRENCHED IN SECOND PLACE FOR THE
 PRESENT, AS SERIES OPENS
Ed Wells Will Toss Them Across In First Game Of Mobile Series
BY MAO


 It will seem like a hopeless battle for the Barons this week, when they face the Bruins of Mo- bile in a three game series at Redwood, that Is, If one is con- sidering only immediate results. It has been a noticeable fact that the men of Stewart like to have some immediate results for their work, and for the Bruin series, there can be nothing imme mediate to result from the three games. The Bears play at Redwood to- day, Tuesday and Wednesday. A single game is carded for today, to begin at 3:3O o'vlock.
 The Bears pulled up sharply in the face of the Baronial threat Sunday. and copped the final game from New Orleans. There by, they went four and half games ahead of the Barons. So, should the men of Stewart hap pen to win three games in a row from Mobile. they would still be a game and a half from the Bruins. Second place, over which the Bears and Barons will prob ably battle the remainder of the season, Is not to be forthcoming for the men of Stewart at pres ent.
 However, there will be every thing in the world to urge tho Barons on to their greatest ef- forts. If the men of Stewart arS to remain definitely in the race for runner-up hOnOrs to the ePlt- cans, who seem to have padlocI<- ed that pennanr after alls they must cop nt Ienst two of the games from Mobile. And the opportunity to actually Oust Neil hoffs men from their berth will come later on in the fast aging Southern league race
 Upon Ed Wells rather formlo- able shoulders will probably fall the responsibility of copping the opener from the Bruins this at- ternoon. It is Eds turn to pitch, and Manager Stewart will prop ably start the big left hanoer against the Bears today.
 For Mobile, either Tony Faeth or Senor Acosta will do the twlrl- ing. Tony Faeth is the hurier secured from Nashville, the slde arm wizard, who has been going good with the Bears.
 In view of the closeness of the race for second place, and the great spurt of the Barons, ralI- bird circles are predicting the record crowds of the season for inc three games this week.

Farmer Invents Kaferita,

A new kind of kaff1r corn has been

kaffir and feterita. The new grain ma :.
lures fifteen days earlier than kaffir
and does not shell out like feterita
does. The development was made by
Mr.. Pierce in cooperation with the
experiment station of the Kansas State
Agricultural College after several years'
kaferita
