again. These insistent ball clubs
are hard to convince; this ought
to take at least another year, as
q matter Of fact.
The Cubs got 10 cents worth Of
pitching, but a million dollars
worth of hitting, so at least this
part of 1t was not unlike 1929,
either. They got out in front Of
the Cards and stayed there to win
b. 8 to 3, Rhem having nothing
except his 1926 record. Poor old
doddering Hornsby made only two
hits, and all he could do was
handle four chances perfectly.
Hartnett's arm was so bad that
he was utterly incapable Of throw
ing out two men until some time
after they had started.
AS for the Giants, they merely
resumed the business of beating
the Braves in the customary man
ner, this time in the ninth, to
2. Even when winning, the club
didn't look good. It seemed to lack
assurance, cohesion. 1t appeared
at times that all the Braves had
to do was hit one in the air and
keeping running. Marshall, the
new second baSeman, was plaus-
ible in his debut, but Roettger
did nothing except throw one
resolutely against the stands on
a play at the plate. Meantime.
Fisher, one Of the men used in
the Roettger trade, had blown
himself to four hits.
Simmons, course stole the
show from Ruth over in Phil

achieved the unique by
stretching o home run into
two bases. His drive was
about to clear the fence,

the bitterness OF the past.
Before age began to take toll Of him,
Chief Justice Taft hoped and expected

PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE

In q report on the results of X-ray
treatment In 93o cases of cancer of the
breast, Drs. George e. Pfahler and Leo
d. Parry note that in 90 per cent of
the cases lump, pain or an injury had
first attracted the patients attention to
the breast.
The average length Of time before the
patient consulted . physician was 10
months, however. It would seem that
our efforts to educate the laity are I'M
availing. When the average woman car
ries such a burden Of worry or anxiety
in her breast for 10 months before she
can make up her mind to consult her
physician about it, why, what Is the use
of trying to teach people about danger
signals?
In 64e Of these cases the patients
came for X-ray treatment after hav-
ing had an operation for removal Of
the cancer, because the cancer had re-
CURED. The average duration of symp-
toms of recurrence following the oper-
alton before the patients reported for
X-ray treatment was Is months.

These distinguished authorities advise
not only X-ray treatment of the wound

'Not a bit of it," said this mother.
"She Is my daughter and she must do

a little more out Of the ordinary than
all that. What is the use of having

In other words, the children are to

ship Of the multitude that the parents
never achieved. Rather hard on the

It is better to recognize the truth In

while In SO per cent Of inoperable cases
X-ray treatment made the disease
operable (amenable to surgical excision)
and 10 per cent of these patients who
we're operated on after X-ray treat
ment had made the operation feasible
are living after five years.
Surgery alone at present gives 20 per
cent of five-year cures when the nodes
in the armpit are involved. Surgery,
with post-operative X-ray treatment,
gives IS per cent of flve-year cures.
So 1t Is clear the prospect Of a cure is

than. when no X-ray treatment Is given
after operation.
These authorities say they have in
sufficient evidence to recommend re-
placement of operation by X-ray treat
ment and they advise that operation
and X-ray treatment be combined In
all cases in which it Is possible.

Court justices themselves to leaving the
historic old Senate chamber in the
Capitol. It is close to the heart of
things in Washington. The stir and
hustle OF governmental life is all about
the judges as they sit In their solemn
robes upon the bench. Some of them
feared isolation and loss of vital con-
facts In @ more remote setting.
But Mr.. Taft had his way. The
Supreme Court is to have such q build
ing as he had dreamed of. Even the
approved architectural design bears the
stamp of his individual taste. And
already move Is afoot to find a way
to make it in fact memorial to VIII

Do Not Own Children.

It is very sad to be a parents child.
A child should belong rather more to
himself. In fact, nobody owns anybody,
especially children. Each child is an
experiment. of nature, and unless he Is
freed of the personal dominance OF in
dividuals he cannot fulfill his purpose
on earth.
Not long ago I felt very sorry for a
nice girl. She is a healthy girl, about
able to get through high school with
the aid of friendly chums and devoted
teachers. Her mother was very much
aggrieved because this young lady had
no special gift with which to dazzle the
world. Cant you find some way to put
q little ambition into her? All she
wants to do is to go to parties and go
out with boy. Then she Is happy"
The girl was not to go to work, be-
cause there was money enough in the
family. She could not go to school any
more because she had no power In that
direction. She was tending toward the
one field for which she was well fitted

will make her do something worth

none could be developed. Certainly

Why not let boys and girls who have

Growing Time.

UEOWlnS 1lme'
If at all possible, and it is, let the
younger children plant few seeds
and tend them to maturity. OF course
II there is q chance to have little
garden, that is ideal.
Give the child bit of good garden
ing ground, however. 1t Is manifeStly
unfair to set aside the shady corner,
hard as stone, and tell the child to
plant his garden. That does harm.
The garden that refuses to grow and
thrive under childish care Is an I'M
truth and so tells the child the wrong
story. You wouldn't do that under any
other circumstances. So give him q
tiny plot of good earth, well watered
and sunny.

fertilize It. If this is to be Wild
flower garden make certain that you
know what sort of soil the plants re-
Quire. Some of them need acid soil
scooped off the top layer under the
pines and emlocks-crowfoot violets
and the twin flowers need this. But
If you are to offer the child vegetable
seeds-and some children prefer them
to flower seeds Of any sort-prepare the
ground as for good garden loan.
Give him a Sna.! but worthy rake
and spade and a weeder. Teach him
what they are for and show him how
to use them. Help him start his gar
den. The soil must be patiently raked
until it is fine. And don't forget to
sift the soil into which you are going
20 set the seeds. Childrer's gardens
need all the help they can get from
such fine touches. Then give him what
seeds you think he can manage. Coarse
ones are best for beginners.
Sometimes all you can offer q child
IL q border few inches wide. That
sow his seeds. A row Of scarlet runner
beans will be q delight. A bean Is one
OF the most interesting seeds to watch.
From the time they crack the earth
until they climb to the roof Of the
garage, decked with scarlet blossoms,
these runner beans will give the gar
dener great joy.
The older children ought to feel q
real responsibility for the vegetable
garden, If there is one, and there ought
to be If there Is any ground to spare.
Gardening is a highly educational prof.
ect. When a boy or girl plants and
tends a mess Of beans from seed time
TO the table service, he or she has ac-
Quired host of worthwhile experiences
Such q child has learned the meaning
Of labor, Of patient tending, Of service
Of the Joy Of success. The practical
side Of the Job Is not to be taken light
". A habit Of industry and thrift has
been well started. The money value
Of the crop has deep-seated values.
But Springtime Is growing time. The
children are thrilled with new life in
the Springtime The budding life about
them excites them to fresh endeavors
They laugh easily, cry easily, work II
starts and jerks. The moods Of Spring
are reflected In the children and we
must try to adjust things so that there
shall be no waste energy.
That is where gardening comes IN
It is in harmony with the mood OF

this condition should not continue
especially in the western country
where pork production falls so far
short of pork consumption. With
very little export demand, grain
growers are going to be forced to
sell their grain at home. Their op-
portunities for profitable marketing
would seem much better if the
growers themselves made arrange
ments to market at least a part of
their crops through the medium of
livestock. We have failed to make
good sound home market as an
outlet for our grain and forage, but
IT is never too late to do good, so
why not start now'
Range and pasture feed condi-
tions in practically all parts of Cal
ifornia are exceptionally favorable
this spring, despite the fact that
rainfall in practically all sections is
below normal. The reason for this
is that rains came at very oppor
tune times and temperatures have
been higher than normally, permit
ting good growing season. Stock
men may be faced with the rather
unwelcome situation of having a
burdensome number of fat cattle
and lambs ready to move TT one
time. If the practice of topping out
fat stock as they are ready is fol
lowed. We may escape 4 depression
in prices that now appears likely
unless intelligent marketing is prae-
! ticed.
! There is no political or theoretical
scheme which will permit us to get
away from the laws of supply and
demand. If larger numbers of fat
stock are forced on the market than
can readily be absorbed. there is no
doubt but that prices will be affect
ed This is true whether it be live
stock, grain or anv other product,
agricultural or otherwise. If we
can gauge our market supplies To
tune in with what the public can
readily consume, we should have a
fair spring and summer cattle mar
ket. Certainly, cattle supplies are
not burdensome if they can he
spread out through the season. In
telligent marketing. coupled with
supplemental feeding to keep off
the market thin and half-fat stock,
will solve the problem for the cow
man.

+ LOS ANGELES, April l.-While
tne present predieament of the lamb
feeders is 4 sorry one, yet it is very
likely that 1890 will prove n good
veor in which To feed out lambs.
There will he fewer feeder lambs
available in most parts of the coun-
trv than usual, because of good feed
conditions. In other words, growers
will market a larger percentage of
their lambs as fat stock and this
il particularly true on the Pacific
coast. Undoubtedly, heavy losses
are being sustained by feeders who
fed out lambs during the winter,
and probable summer price levels
NAV offer an opportunity to recoup.
The losses that were sustained, will
in many eases, discourage the feed
ers to try it again. but of course, in
and cutters never did get anywhere
Lamb production is n business, and
If followed continuously has a good
chance of profit, but it must be con
sidered as a long time operation.
Those that get in high and get out
low never win.
Financial institutions have been
watching the trend of the lamb
market for sometime, and have fully
recognized that the industry was
over the top and headed down the
incline so far as prices are con
! J. -
that the business is going all to
pieces. 1t is better to remember
that it has taken the good part OF
eight years to reach the appex, and
during all of that time sheep condi.
tions We're good. and plenty OF
money made by the growers that
handled the business right. II
would seem that, if thin lambs car
be bought this summer and next fall
at reasonable prices, in line with fat
stock value. that western people
could well afford to give thought tC
buying feeder lambs. Feed price:
are the lowest in several years and
the chances are that livestock feed
ing will offer grain and hay grow
ers better means of selling theil
products in the form of lamb, bee,
and pork, than to sell in any othel
way.
Hog values have been well main
tanned so far this year and thos,
who have STAYED with hog feedin.
and hog raising are making gOo(
money. There is no reason why
