it often proves too much for the
twirljng staff.
The brilliant outfielders do far
Ire than merely handle the
chances that come their way in the
field or on the ground. Every batter
must be properly played. In other
words the outfielder must know the
field to which the batter is prone
to hit and shift accordingly
The truly great outfelders, center
f1elders in particular, must know
and do these things as part of their
work. Playing a batter properly
often makes an easy out of a chance
that would have been most difficult
had the batsman been played in
correctly
In addition, good arm is a most
important asset and the proper use
Of 1t in always getting the ball to
the correct base, is even more nee
essary.

- plays, the center fielder in

Cleveland club.
In the spring when I passed So
called expert judgment on the In

the opinion that the clubs greatest
handicap was the passing of Iris
Speaker. I stressed the belief that
no club could lose such an outstand-
ing star without suffering.
Naturally I had to admire the
spirit of the players and officials
when they said the club wouldn't
miss Speaker. 1t may have been
real or false enthusiasm.
With the season nearly half over,
five players have essayed to fill iris
Speakers shoes and none has come
close to doing it. What's more, the
experiment is still on.

Bees Go Off on Spree

laws.
The bee fancier noticed percul-
lar condition in one OF his hives.
The bees appeared in a semi-dor-

fragrant odor was observable near
their quarters.
Opening the top OF the hive, be
found section of the honey-comb
had not been sealed by the bees and
water had dripped into the honey.
Summer heat served to ferment the
mixture, which Mr.. Smith said more
nearly approached the strength OF
distilled spirits than that of fer

Casino DiscOntinues
Relief for Gamblers

Monte Carlo, Aug. 2 tR - Those
who lose their last dollar in the
Monte Carlo casino hereafter will be
Just one trip home poorer than those
who formerly found themselves in
the same fix.
The reason Is that efficiency ex-
perts attached to the casino have
decided to do away with the via
tiques."
Formerly, when a. gambler went
broke in Monte Carlo the casino
would supply him with free trans
portation home providing he asked
for it and the secret service re-
ported that he had lost enough
money to justify the expense. The
free rides were called 'viatiques.'
1t was seldom that legitimate re-
quest was refused.
Scores of gamblers were returned
to England each year. Many went
to South America and the United
States at the expense of the casino.

BRITISH Farmers
FACE HARD times
Having Their Own Troubles
These Days

London, Aug. 2 R-British farm
ers. as we'll as American, have ex-
perienced difficult times d4ring the
past few years.
The average level of prices Of ag
ricultural produce is lower than in
any year since 1915, says a 'eport
on the prices and supplies of aSri-
cultural produce and requirements
in England and Wales issued by
the Ministry of Agriculture.
Wheat shows the least change In
price among cereals. Barley and
oats have fallen sharply compared
with 192i-5. but whereas barley has
shown some recovery, oats were
only Is per cent above pre-war
level. Potatoes; owing to short
crop in 1926, have recovered dur
ing the present havest year from
the low prices prevalent in 1924-5.
Both fat cattle and fat sheep
have fallen heavily in price. Fat
pigs, on the other hand, are well
above 1s24-5 prices. and in view Of
the lower prices of feeding stuff,
tho prices of fat pigs have proved
remunerative.
Milk has declined somewhat af-
ter being virtually stationary for
three years, butter has fallen stead
lily, and cheese after showing an
improvement in 1856. has fallen
sharpl yto the low level of 80 per
cent above pre-war.
Poultry and eggs are both lower.

vegetables both showed an Inn
provement in 1926, but have fallen
heavily since.
The general declining tendency
Is even more marked during The
first months of this year. For the
six months ending in March the
average has heen below the corre-
spending months of the previous
year. These lower averages have
been due very largely to the re-
duced prices Of fat stock and milk,
which constitute more than half
the output from British farms.
The decline in the price Of fat
cattle has been relatively very
sharp, prices Of these during the
past six months have been about IL
per cent lower than year earlier.
Agricultural wages have re-
NAMED at a standstill for some
time, the average being about IS

The meek and lowly burro, or donk-

training wild horses.
Yoked to a complacent burro, the
horses after few hours learn to
stop, halt, turn and in general to
obey the wishes of someone else.
A rope is placed about the
horses nose and about the neck of
the burro and they are allowed 70
run together. After a few hours
the wild horse may be down and
unable to get up, but the burro
usually will be able to travel.
