tives to the conference
A statement issued by the Depart
ment of Agriculture said:
The farm population of the United

broadcas sting and in the service that
it is rendering to agriculture. Be
cause of this interest and the posi-
bility of a greater service being per-
formed through better organization
and coordination of effort, a confer
ence to discuss the various problems
of agricultural Importance in this
connection should prove of value to
all concerned.
Problems Are Named.
Some of the problems of radio
broadcastin which have an agrlcul-
tural significance are:
a. The quantity, character, ar
rangement and time allotment of
such agricultural broadcast material
as weather forecasts, crop and mar
ket information, agricultural news,
agricultural educational material and
entertainment.
80. The development of national
program of agricultural materitl,
taking into consideration all State
and local needs, thereby offering the
widest distribution of agricultural
information.

to obtain the greatest economy and
efficiency in handling agricultural
material through broadcast stations
and to eliminate duplication of eff
fort.

and the division of time schedules
among broadcasting stations.
although it is impossible to pre-

order that all may arrive at a better
understanding and hasten the solu-
ton of such problems in the best
interest of agriculture"

a quantity of dynamite, which had
just been unloaded, and in the hold
were $50 drums of gasoline yet to be
removed The flames, according to
the radio operator. originated when a
sling removing the first two drums
of gasoline broke, dropping them
back into the hold, a spark from the
friction of metal against metal ignit-
ing the fluid. Wooden stanchions
built into the hold to keep banana
cargoes from shifting blaZed imm edi-
ately, and in d moment the place was
a seething furnace.
Many Jump Into Sea.

who congregate aboard vessels when
they arrive at ports in the tropics,

Another Game,
Washburn Loses

Southpaw Scott turned in the
twelfth straight win for the Grove
gang Sunday afternoon when he
.blanked the fast Washburn outfit on
the local field. Hurting pretty ball
all the way, he was never in danger
excepting in the sixth frame, when
Tower hit a single and Cunningham
swatted out a two-bagger, Scott then
tightened up and retired the three
next men that faced him. The Grove
gang secured one run in the second
frame, one. in the sixth, when r. E..
Smith crashed one over the wall for a
homer and in the eighth again
counted one score. This contest was
easily the fastest and cleanest exhi-
bition staged on the local field this
season. Tower, on the mound for
the visitors, pitched nice ball all the
way, but hitting when it counted and
errors by his teammates lost the
game for him. The team that the
Penitentiary has in the field this sea-
son is by far the best organized and
evenly balanced team, so the mana
ger states, that Grove has put into
the field in the last ten years. Next
Sunday, July 13, the fast Cannon Ball
team is scheduled to play on the
Grove diamond against the unde-
feated Grove gang and the game will
commence promptly at 2 p. m.

Billy Evans Says

In the major leagues this season,
there are just about an even dozen
pitchers who have been i'm the main
canopy IL years or more.
Strange to relate, three of them are
on the same club. Reference is made
to Pennock, Bush and Shawkey of
the Yankees. Each got his start with
the Athletics back around 1912.
But despite their long service in
big time, two of them-Bush and
Pennock-led the American League
gunners as late as 1922 and 1923. In
1922, Bush, by virtue of sensational
come back, showed the way to the rest
of the field, while Pennock, team
mate, turned the trick last season. A
pair of note-w worthy records, indeed!
The work of each played big part
in the success of the Higgins en-
tourage those years.
Not only do the Yanks boast three
of the oldest hurlers in the game in
point Of service, but in Sam Jones
they have another who only lacks i
season or so of being up as lengthy
a time as Shawkey, Bush and Pen
mock. Jones, likewise, had pretty
good year in 1923.
That the Yankees have the Oldest
pitching staff in baseball is we'll
known fact. They're veterans in
every sense of the word. For dozen
seasons or more in the majors is
quite stretch for pitcher. True,
,Cy Young, Matty and some of the
other gold-timers leaped far beyond
that mark, but they were exceptions
in more than one respect.
The present Higgins staff may keep
huriing winning ball for some time
to come. And then again it may not.
It,s problematical of course.
One thing is certain, however, and
that is that Shawkey, Bush and Pen

What if Cobb knows nothing about

program or ship subsidy, can't he
still make bum out of any pitcher
