The same quotations name the
Philadelphia athletics as slight
favorite for the American League
pennant over the Washington Sena-
tors. who likewise happen to have
won q championship in 1925. In
other words, the Street thinks it
was all a terrible mistake.
Just how much it may be en-
titled to think it knows about the
situation remains to be seen. It
IS the so-called thoroughfare of the
s'wise money and Is supposed to
know everything about everything.
However, there seems to have been
one rather unimportant exception.
It failed to obtain advance infor-
nation on the Wall Street explo-
sion.
Anyhow, it win quote You 81
against S. that the Giants do not
win I'm the National League and
as much IS s. against S. that the
Pirates will finish out Of the Lead.
Both are quoted as 1-to-2 shots to
win, although why the Pirates
should be rated with the Giants
as q possible winner and below
them as a possible loser is a bit
beyond my conventional reach.
Equally mystifying is the fact
that the St. Louis Cardinals and
Cincinnati Reds, generally regarded
as hot possibilities. are rated below
the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Street
has set price of "a toll on the
Dodgers head, for reasons not quite
clear as Browns mixture.
Neither are the st. Louis Browns
regarded as an appealing .1ropo.
eition in the American League, most
Of the money having gone down
on the Athletics at STOP, and the
Senator'S at 5-to-s.
The. remainder Of the fields in
both leagues are held anywhere
from fl TO 30-1, the Boston Red
S0x and the Chicago Cubs rating
the latter price without play Of
any kind.
In naming the Pirates and Sem
ators as second choices, the Street
apparently is playing a bunch plus
the knowledge that precedent is
somewhat against champions, even
good ones. In the the years since
the modern world series was begun
in 1908, no less than IL out of q
worlds champions have failed to
win the pennant in their own league
the following year. And of the a.
pennant winners between 1903 and
1924. 81 have failed to repeat the
next year.
However. cannot seem to forget
that the Pirates are supposed to be
something Of ball club.

At one of their last meetings Mr..
Roosevelt said that he thought
Corbett was the logical person to
lndite an acceptable official boxing
code for international adaptation.
and it was to follow out this sug-
gestion that the former champion
wrote the Roosevelt Boxing Rules.
In a recent interview Corbett
said:
II am offering my Roosevelt
Boxing Rules with the sincere hope
that they will be of material help
to the manly art to which / owe
everything. These rules are. in my
estimation, more comprehensive,
practical and sportsmanlike, for
modern usage, than the original
Marquis of Queensbury or any other
boxing rules.

Mr.. HOyme said that this personal
contact would carry with it more con-

ers to talk good roads and good farm

FARMERS IN ROOSEVELT
COUNTY
Agricultural Economist Saws Flax
Acreage Can Stand 10 Per Cent
Increase; Potatoes Not More Than
A 10 Per Cent Increase

One hundred Roosevelt county
farmers, meeting at the new Ian
ark community hall, heard DR.. W.
j.. Spillman of the bureau of eco
Monies, United States Department
of Agriculture, tell how American
farmers should adjust their pro-
ductfOn during the coming year so
that they will receive reasonable
prices next fall. He specifically
mentioned wheat, flax, potatoes.
beef and sheep.
The department of agriculture &c
OnOmics, he said, prevented over-pro-
duction in certain crops last year
through the intelligent collection and
dissemination of information. Severe
d~eflatIOn can be prevented in lead
ing farm products if only farmers will
make use Of such information. he
continued. The bureau of agricul-
tnUraI economics had a batting av-
erage Of Is out p on high and low
price trends on commodities covered
this last year, according to those who
checked up the department CLOSELY
The department plans to give the out
looks on 80 farm products this year
he said
Flax can stand only a 10 per cent
acreage increase without endanger-
ing its world market price, plus the
tariff, and with such increase. a
bumper crop viii put US on the ex-
port basis, Mr.. Spillman asserted.
With normal weather conditions, the
price Of wheat looks like it will be
firm, but there is a big chance for a
premium reduction on our high r
tein wheat, due chiefly to the out
look for 200, 900, 900 bushels Of hard
red winter following a 10 per cent
increase in acreage, which is report
ed in good condition. The outlook
for other wheat is bad.
He said that a 10 per cent increase
in potato acreage, with a normal
crop, is safe, but that such prices. a,
are now prevalent, always stimulated
such an increase in the commercial
potato acreage that prices went to th,
bottom, even below the cost of dig.
ging. Dairy products win always h,
generally good, with short periods y
low prices caused by the heavy crOl
