CROP REPORT

Since our report a week ago, the
seeding of wheat and other grains has
progressed rapidly throughout the
northwest, says the weekly crop re-
port issued by the Van Dusen Har-
rington company Of Minneapolis. The
weather has been extremely dry and
cold with freezing temperatures in
northern districts. Light showers, to
moderate rains, have fallen in places,
but no general rains have been re-
ported. A very serious condition now
exists. especially in South Dakota. due
to- abnormally dry weather. High
winds and dust storms have prevailed
throughout the northwest and in some
districts, the light, sandy soil has
drifted and damaged the growing
crops.
Our reports from southern Mime
sofa and South Dakota indicate that
the seeding Of wheat mad other grain
Is practically finished. Early sown
fields are green, but very uneven and
thin. Farmers are blowing and pre-
pairing the soil for corn and planting
will probably start. the first Of next
week. No scarcity Of seed corn is
reported.

oats have gone into the ground. On
account Of the dry and cold weather,
the seed has terminated slowly and
early fields have rather spotted ap-
pearAnce.
In. Northwestern North Dakota and
northern Montana, the completion of
wheat seeding varies from co to 80
per cent. In the central and southern
districts of Montana, it is practic-
ally finished. Moisture conditions in
that state are more favorable and
with good weath1r. crops should make
rapid growth.
The winter wheat sections of Mon
tAna report that crop in excellent con-
dition, with good stand and color.
The winter rye prospects at pres
emit are very unfavOrable. Some fields
are spotted and there is evidence of
considerable winter killing. Others
have . brown appearance. indicating
o low vitality Of the plant. In some
places. fields are being plowed up and
sown to other grains.
Grass in the Dakotas is very back
ward. Pasturage is short and farm
ers are still compelled to feed their
stock.
In summary, the soil this spring
was in good shape for seeding. The
ground, however, is very dry and
there is very little moisture in the
sub-soil. This territory has not had
the usual spring rains and unless
there arc good, general rains soon,
the crops will undoubtedly be scri-
ously damaged.

West Coast League
Faces New Problem

Los Angeles, May 3.-LP),-Pacific
coast league officials today consider
ed baseball problem new to this
circuit.
In recent game between Oakland
and the San Francisco Missions, Oak

The batsman hit to the Mission first
baseman who threw home. retiring

A coast league rule provides that
when an umpire interferes with a
base runner, causing him to be put
out, the runner shalt return Ito the
last base touched safely.
AS first and second bases were oc-
cupied. umpire Moran at the plate
stopped play and permitted a sub for
Pruett to take third. Walter Nc

RUTH'S HOME
RUN RECORD
CALLED SAFE
Hughie Jennings, Like Others
Doesn't Believe ii Will
BE Excelled
(HY BILLY EVANS)

!, AS Babe Ruth goes, so go the YAM
KEGS.
That has been a popular belief in
New York ever since the Bambino
became the sensation of the baseball
world because Of his feats of slug
ging.
In 1921 and 1922 Ruth failed to hit
in the world series with the Giants,
despite his great work during the
s. regular season. The Yankees were
defeated both times.
During the 1928 clash between the
two New York clubs for the world
championship, Ruth featured with his
hitting. The Yankees won
Ruth Slumpcd
Last season. for the first time in
his major league career as a regular
player. Ruth fell below the 400 mark
in batting. 1t was his worst year,
due to illness and injuries. The YAM
KEGS finished seventh.
Ruth is through. was the opinion
expressed by most Of the experts ut
the close Of the season.
During the winter Ruth began a
period Of intensive training and re-
ported for spring work in the best
condition of his career.
Can Ruth come back?
1nAL mas Deen the most TAXED
about topic in baseball as result of
the press-agenting Ruth's winter
training stunts got him.
Hughie Jennings, who despite the
fact that he is fighting for his life in a
southern sanitarium. still has plenty
of time to talk baseball. Hughic is
one of the many authorities who be-
lieves the Babe will never again come
close to breaking his home run record
Of SO circuit drives.
"While Ruth is a logical 800 hitter
and fell below that mark last season
because Of illness and injuries, don't
look for him to come close to his
home run mark" said Jennings re-
Gently.
IS the Limit
u am inclined to think that IS
home runs will be the most made by
any batter in either Of the major
leagues this year. It may even fall
below that mark.
"There. is no doubt but that the ball
HAS been slowed down considerably.
This is unfortunate for Ruth in his
drive to- come back as the premier
horne run hitter Of the majors.
1RQth. if he retains his excellent
phvsicaf condition. should hit arou nd
$50 for the Yankees. If he does the
club is sure to be troublesome
"But It's all joke about Babe hit
ting so home runs this year. The ball
in use isn't that kind Of ball.
ARuth's mark Of 50 horne runs is
the safest record in baseball"

Helpful Hints by
Golfng Stars
FRANCIS OUIMET-VALUE OF
rnNFeNAy0n

CONCENTRATION
Do you know what your worst fault
as q golfer is? You may think it's
slicing. or lifting your head, or stab
bling your puts, but you are all
wrong. The average golfer, the vast
majority Of linksmen and linkswom-
en-, those who shoot the various
courses Of this country rarely under
100, all suffer from similar COM
plaint--lack of concentration. They
do not try to. reason things out for
themselves.
Sometimes think that our entire
system Of golf is wrong. We urge
players to practice and to take many
lessons. All Of which will do a great
deal for ones game.
But did you ever stop to figure
out just what proportion of the golf.
ers who belong to your home club
have time to do these things?
They take up golf for exercise.
They play with their friends. Oc-
casionally they get into q tourna-
ment- and 90 times out of q hundred
they get thorough trimming from
some fellow who has had the time to
learn something about golf.

Billy Evans Says
Form Reverses

Form Reverses
This has been most unusual
spring in baseball circles aside from
the cold weather.
In the exhibition games the Boston
Braves were the sensation of the
Florida Grapefruit circuit while the
Phillies had trouble winning ball
game from anybody.
With the start of the Season, the
Phillies Immediately broke into the
games won column while the Braves
suffered repeated reverses.
The st. Louis Cardinals after win.
ming &c straight exhibition games,
came home to meet the St. Louis
Browns in two-game spring series.
The Browns won both contests.
With the opening of the regular
season the Cardinals resumed their
winning ways while the Browns lest
five straight.
Even the world champs, the Pitts
burgh Pirates. fem q victim to the
freak spring and instead of immedi-
ately going out in front have been
trailing from the start.
More Variety
Speed is once again to become q
prominent factor in winning a major
league pennant.
For five or more years speed has
been in the background, due to the
lively ball. making it foolish to take
chances on the bases in the pursuit
of one run.
Baseball is sure to be more inter-
esting this summer as there will be
a greater variety to the play.
The steal will be an important fac
tor. the sacrifice will get a greater
play, the bunt as a method of reach.
ing first will be resorted by fast
men, while the hit and run will also
continue popular.
incidentally the home run will carry
an even greater thrill because it will
not be nearly so common a happen
ing.
A slower ball will give the pitchers
and infielders a chance to cope with
the various forms of diamond
strategy.
Carey's Value
Down south when I talked with
Rogers Hornsby about the chances
of his club, also those he would have
to beat to win pcnnant, he remarked
to me.
"Thc Pirates will miss Max Carey
If his illness prevents him from start
ing.
Carey is a remarkable ball play
or, who does his work in such easy.
fashion that his greatness is some
times overlooked.
"Carey is the balance wheel Of the
ball club and if for any reason he
should not be able to play his usual
brilliant game, the Pirates are going
to be- badly handicapped"
1t took only week for the wisdom
of Hornsby's speech to be verified,
proving what one great ball player
means to club.
Without Carey in the lineup the
Pirates lost six of the first eight
games.
To appreciate what Carey means
to Pittsburgh just 60 back to the
world series Of 1926 and figure where
the Pirates would have been with.
out him.
Arent Groves
Perhaps Connie Mack will this year
realize on his investment Of $780,
900 plus = few cents, the amount he
paid for Lefty" Groves.
Down south I saw Groves strike
