What has the 1870 world series to
offer that is out Of the ordinary. with
the Philadelphia Athletics and the
Chicago Cubs as the contcnding
teams?
High powered pitching and hefty
slugging, is the answer.
! seriously doubt II any world series
has ever before presented as con-
tenders two teams 30 nearly identical
In their style Of play. The Athletics
and Cubs have great pitching and q
devastating punch at the bat. To
further carry out the scheme of equal
ity and sameness. both play In ball
parks made to order for the slugger
style.
TO me It would be no surprise II the
coming series resolved itself into q
battle Of home runs. and some Of
them are liable to be Of the mighty
cheap variety. Almost every member
Of both the Cubs and Athletics has 4

Lighting System
Especial to The Herald)

FDINBURG, Jan. 3l.-A special
airport lighting system. devised by
J. A. Tillmau, Jr-, of Edinburg, Will
in the opinion of the inventor, make
night or bad weather airplane land
incs and take-offs as easy as day
flying.
Under Tillman's plan, the wind
box would automatically control
switches which would light up only
runways which are safe for landing.
The runways would stretch across
The field at various anglgs and
would be lighted by the under
ground shallow type which would
cast the safe runways in a bright
light. leaving the unsafe runways
in darkness.
Tillman. : former commercial av-
iatay. has had training in both civil
and military flying in San Antonio.
His idea for the lighting system
same 20 him after he had witnessed
several bad crashes due TO poor air
port lighting while employed by the
Southern Always, Inc.
He expects TO put the system on
the market soon.

NEW YORK, November 29.-Salem
N. Baskin, leading Chicago Clothier,
writes that the clothing industry is
showing the usual improvement expert
enced every year "as We go into the
Fall season." He believes that it will
not be, disturbed in any way by the
market mess"
But this Chicago business man takes
little different view of things re-
garding the value Of the White House
conferences:
There never can be such thing
as an artificially stimulated period OF
prosperity-at least, no such boom can
be sustained, regardless of what is done
in Washington, and no man will be
fool enough to do anything but pre-
serve his own business. Natural order
will take. its course in business, as III
all other things. Railroads will order
equipment when they need it. We will
order clothes when we need them; all
of us will continue our business in Il
businesslike way.

relation now being attempted in Wash
ington, it will have done big service
for the country.
The Government has been working
for some time to determine the best
methods for packing frozen fruit to
preserve the fresh fruit flavor. Last
year 10000 cans of fruit, berries ana
vegetables were frozen, packed by varl-
Gus methods now coming into use, ana
put in cold storage in the States of
Washington and Oregon.
Packing frozen fruits and vegetables
in small containers is a new develop
ment in the food industry. The prod
uctS are put in vacuum-sealed tin cans
or covered wax paper containers, alone
or with sugar, salt or other packing
media, and stored at low temperatures
until consumed.
Some of these packs have been sent
on to Washington, D. c., for laboratory
tests IN December. Before many months
pass the effectiveness Of the different
methods Of freezing will be pretty well
known.
The products packed in Washington
and oregon include Strawberries, rasp-
berries, blackberrieS, cherries, uears,

melons.
Senator Monies de Oca, Mexican
minister of finance, in his report to the
Chamber of Deputies, estimates the ma

youthful finance minister places at
$146, ,603. 900, basing , the peso at so
cents.
Not unlike that of other countries,
the largest expenditures are for war, and
marine-about $40,000,000. Still, this is
nearly $6,000,000 less than is being
spent in this way this year. The
