SENATORS DEFEAT
 ATHLETICS TO4, SOCKINC WALBERC
Joe CrOnin Drives Home Run in Third, Starting
 Barrage Which Nets Washington Three Runs

Philadelphia, April 19-It took Rube Walberg four innings to find his pitching form yesterday, but 1t was too late, for the Washington Senators had good lead and a. gain beat the Philadelphia Ath- letics, to 4.
 Monte Weaver held the Ameri, can league champions safely for six innings, but in the seventh he began to wobble and Yalter John son rushed in Fred Marberry to stop what looked like a rally by the Athletics.
 The Rube took a severe lacing from the Nationals, but Connie Mack kept him right on the mound until he took turn for the better. Four hits and two runs in the first inning, five hits and three runs in the third, and a triple and one run were made off the big left handler before he settled down and pitched ball of which he is capable.
 In the third innings Joe Cronin opened with a home run over the right field wall and then Dave Harris, Joe Judge and Roy Spen- cer hit singles, while Monte Weav- CT doubled. The Athletics one big inning was the fifth, when Eric McNair, subbing for Joe Boley opened with a single. Bishop walked, Johnny Heving, who sue ceded Cochrane behind the bat doubled, and Al Simmons singled netting three runs. The box score;

We'll now, take this fellow Joe Savoldi, wrestler. Did it ever oc- cur to you that the hairy, much muscled Joe would make a pretty fair Tarzan? Anyway, just that has occurred to Joe. And Joe says 1t occurred to the movie people, too.
 "They offered me the role of Tarzan,'' Joe confided the other day, but I couldn't agree with them on money. Johnny Weiss muller underbid me-" There must be pretty good dough in the wres- ting racket.
 A Southpaw Custom
 Lefty Gomez, the cunning Cas- tilian, has some of the same left handed traits that made Rube Waddell the subject of song and story. Thus, Lefty the other day revealed that one of his dearest desires was to don a suit of armor and ride bicycle from the bullpen to the pitching mound. He said he thought it would create quite a sensation. Maybe it would. An Opinion
 If Jack Sharkey will discard his silly antics when he meets Cham pion Max Schmeling this summer, and fight straightforwardly from gong to gong, without mysteries, screams or other occasional fish wifely outbreaks, he will be re- warded for his pains by being knocked quite cold.
 Going Away Back
 Phar Lap is dead, but some of his blood will be represented in the Kentucky Derby of 1882. It's like this: Phar Laps ancestry goes back five generations to the great British horse, Carbine. Carbine's line goes back to Australian. War Plane, son of American Flag, by Man O. War, by Fair Play, can be traced back to Hastings, and the Hastings line goes back to Aus tralian, too.

 Rich Relatives,

 a bay colt by Supremus-C Clonakilty,
 can hold up his head and speak | right out. His mother, Clonakilty,
 also was the mother of Mike Hall, a great stake horse than won $213,220 in his racing years. And Sekhmet, an imported chestnut lilly by Sardanaple-Pro-
 sopopee, can point to pretty able daddy. Sardanaple, a French
 horse, won Il races out of 16
 starts, was unplaced only once and l earned $211,505 for his owner. To which a bay colt named Sun Spear could reply that his daddy
 was Sun Briar, and that Sun Briar was the papa of Sun Beau, too, and Sun Beau won $440,774,
 which was more than any other
 race horse ever won in this world.

ing four privately owned cars stored
in the building. The roof of the Gil
more Service station, adjoining, was
burned.
The buildings win be replaced as
soon as possible, owners said. the
loss being partly covered by insur-
ance.
By the time the fire department
arrived on the scene, flames SO to ~
feet high, fed by exploding oil bar
rels, were spouting from the two
buildings. Both the Granite Falls
Garage company and the Master Tire
company sell lubricating oil and sew
eral barrels were in each building.
Efforts on the part of the fire depart
ment kept the flames from spreading
to the Gilmore Service station and
other nearby buildings. Both fire
trucks were on the job until after z
a. M, when the blaze was brought
under control. From that time until
IL o'clock, one truck stood playing
water and chemicals upon the flames.
Curiously enough two barrels of oil
in the Master Tire company quarters
were unchanged by the flames, which
were so intense that other barrels
holding a different brand Of oil ex-
ploded.
Opinions differed on the cause of
the blaze. 1t was thought that short
circuit or an overheated stove might
be responsible.

NEW BULLETIN TELLS
USES OF SKIMMILK

Feeding the skimmilk back to the
dairy cow is one of the unusual sug-
gestions contained in a new bulletin,
"Using Skimmilk on the Farm" Spe-
cial Bulletin 143, just issued by the
Agricultural Extension Division, Uni
versity Farm. Fed to dairy cows,
skimmilk may proftably be used to
replace purchased protein supple
ments such as oilmeal. If the milk
is mixed with the cows grain ration,
she will consume it readily, although
some cows entirely refuse to drink
skimmilk.
Surplus skimmilk may also be used
proftably for feeding growing dairy
heifers. Young calves and pigs per-
haps make the best use of skimmilk
up to the amount they need for a
supply of protein, but skmmilk fed
beyond protein requirements is not
economically utilized and might bet
ter be put to other uses. Poultry,
both growing chicks and laying fiocks,
provide very good market for sur
plus skimmilk.
Each of the uses referred to above
is thoroughly dealt with in the bullet
in, which also takes up the use of but
termilk.
