MARINES FAIL TO
PACIFY NICARAGUA

New York-The administrations
policy in Nicaragua has not succeed
ed, according to DR.. William H. Sphinx,
late of the United States Coast and
Geodetic Survey in the PHILIPPINE Is
lands, who has returned to this coun-
try. He spent several months in Mica
ragua
DR.. Sphinx made no direct charge
against the administration, but his
sordid picture tells the story. The
United States marines have not esab-
hshed order and the country is torn
by dissension between the Liberals and
Conservatives. The latter are at
tempting to maintain government.
The marines believed they could
stop the fighting by declaring most
Of the territory neutral zones This
was satisfactory to the Conservatives,
but the order has resulted in trans
forming the fighting from a more or
less orderly combat into guerilla war
fare.
General Sandino, head of the Liberal
army, who was recently repulsed by
the marines, has a large following and
is gaining numbers daily, according
to DR.. Sphinx.
He said a new and sudden uprising
of the Liberals is imminent. The lib
erals, he added, maintain that their
cause is not lost and had it not been
for United States intervention they
would now be the undisputed victors.
In the Liberals efforts to mobilize, DR.,
Sphinx concluded, they will be aided
actively or at least supported in SYM
pathy by 80 per cent of the east coast
of Nicaragua. 1t is in this section OF
the southern nation that DR.. Sphinx
spent most of his time.

Browns Reported Eager to
Use Star First Stacker
in Trade.
MAY GO TO DETROIT
ShoCker, Cobb and Speaker
Have Doubtful Futures.
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Stah Correspondent
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Now that
the major football season has been
disposed Of, winter comment is turn
ing toward baseball with the stove
league engineering numerous trades.
The next principal one seems to
involve George Sisler, first baseman
and former manager Of the st. Louis
Browns.
Sisler has been an idol in St.
Louis. He once was voted the most
valuable player in the American
League, he has hit well over 400
and his fielding is classic. Yet last
year when SiSler hit only 1876 there
came feeling through the major
leagues that Sisler would do better
in another uniform.
HOwley Changes Mind
Dan Howley, manager of the
Browns and the one who succeeded
Sisler, always has said he could find
no better first baseman than Sisler.
However. this year indicates that
Howley may dispose of George.
One trade often mentioned is that
Sisler will go to the Detroit Tigers
for Heinie Manush, Lou Blue and
Al Wingo. Supposedly we'll informed
quarters say this trade will be an
nounced shortly.
To counteract that comes the ru-
NOR that Sisler will go to Washing
ton in exchange for Joe Judge.
Shocker to Go
Another rumor puzzling the stove
leaguers is that Urban Shocker, vet
eran Yankee, no longer will be seen
in Yankee stadium as a member of
the world champions. A recent
statement of Miller Higgins, New
York manager, as to his 1928 pitch
ing mainstays failed to include
Shocker'S name.
RumorS Immediately had it that
Shocker was to be traded of this
winter. but thus far no one has
been able to find any place to put
the veteran.
1t also seems certain that Flint
Rhem and Lester Bell will not be
with the st. Louis Cardinals next
season. The new manager of the
Cardinals, Bill McKecanie, has let it
be known that Bell and Rhem are
trading material.
Lindstrom to Stay
The rumor gained momentum
that these two would come to the
New York Giants for Lindstrom and
Barnes. This was spiked by John
Nc Graw, who said he wouldn't
trade Lindstrom for a park full of
Bells, and that he was not especial
ly keen about Rhem.
Then, too, there is the case of the
two veterans-Ty Cobb and Iris
Speaker. Both are available for
the 1928 season, and rumor has it
either one or both may go to the
Giants. McGraw merely says he is
willing to think over" both players.

Practical Relief
For Agriculture

there should be an acre of alfalfa for
every cow. The last Federal Census
of 1925 reports Redwood County 3d.
$50 cows and total cattle numbering
48,O81. Besides Redwood County has
a very large hog population of nearly
1854 head and no pasture is super
Tor to alfalfa for hog production. In
view of the livestock production OF
Redwood County the program to have
10000 to $4,000 acres of alfalfa seems
quite conservative. The undertaking
to grow more alfalfa should not be
approached with a view to few
farmers planting large acreages OF
alfalfa, but rather that every farmer
whose conditions permit and where
feed needs require should have reas-
enable acreage of not less than 5 to
10 acres, in fact many can utilize on
the farm much larger production.
If substantial acreage of alfalfa
will increase the farm income of Red
wood County by $1,000,000 annually
this means an acreage of $3.50 per
farm. Surely no farmer with live
stock program can afford to be with
out this crop.
