WOOL MARKET

Boston, June 5-(UP)-Wool
sold in Boston today at firm to
stronger prices, though the market
was not as active as short time
ago.
Best fine woods brought IS to 70
cents a pound, but prices though
sharply higher than month ago,
were still far below the average of
the last 20 years and considerably
below the average for the decade
of 1921-30.
In view Of this, some factors
predict that the upward climb has
only started. They point out that in
1926, generally looked on as a con-
sentative year, fine wool sold at
81 a pound with a lowerd tariff
than is now prevailing.
Fine Ohio Delaine combing wool
of light shrinkage sold at 80 cents
a pound in the grease today.
Choice secured Ohio and Michigan
woods brought 70 cents. Particu-
larly choice three-eighth and
quarter blood woods in the grease
were quoted as high as SO cents.
Domestic good original bag Texas
spring mohair brought 1921 cents.
and good original bag Texas kid
brought 40-41 cents.

CATHOLICS OF
SPAIN PREPARE
FOR CAMP AICN
Propaganda to Be Started
Against the Govt Edict
for Repression of Reli-
gi0us Orders

Madrid, June 5-(U.P.) Cath
olics of Spain organized an ener-
getic campaign to-day against the
governments repression of relig.
ious orders and religious education
which evoked a strong encyclical OF
condemnation from the Pope on
Saturday.
1t was planned to boycott the
government schools and conduct a
vigorous compaign among the cleo
torate, hoping that before Pres
ident Niceto Alcala Zamora's term
expires, the electorate will pass and
Alcala Zamora will sign bill re-
pealing the laws.
Although millions of Catholics
were indignant, it was significant
that not high churchman or
leader of the Agrarian party OPEN
ly criticized the president for sign
ing the new law. 1t reflected the
belief that immediate veto OF the
bill would be a boomerang, as the
hostile cortes would promptly re-
pass it, injuring chances of repeal
later on. The pope's encyclical had
only a moral effect, and did not
provide for any penalties against
Alcala Zamora, such as eXcom-
munication. While Alcala Zamora
is technically open to excommuni-
cation charges, it was believed none
would be preferred.

Washington, June 5-(UP)-In
a new move to aid cotton and
wheat farmers, the government
through the Reconstruction FL
nance corporation has agreed to
lend $6p,000,000 to China to
finance purchases of American
produce.
With this credit available, Chair
man Jesse II. Jones of the r. +.
C. said China is expected to buy
about 100000 bales of cotton and
100000 bushels of wheat in this
country. In addition to lowering
Americas present surplus of these
commodities, it is hoped that the
purchases will stimulate further
demand in China.
The loan to China was first dis
cussed by officials of the Hoover
administration months ago. The
negotiations were closed by T. v.
Soong, Chinese minister of finance,
before he left Washington for the
London economic conference.
The loan will be secured by a
first lien on certain taxes in China.
1t will be payable in installments
over a three-year period and will
bear per cent interest.

ORIGIN OF BASEBALL

While baseball we know it is a sport of COM
paratively recent development, game in which
tossed ball batted with rude club has been
traced back to the 14th century IN Europe. The
present American game probably outgrowth
of that of "town ball." played in New England from
about 1880, in which the runs were made around
posts set in the ground, instead OF bases.
The first code of baseball rules formulated
by the Knickerbocker club of New York in 1845 the
first match game played the following year, and
the first gate-money series of games took place at
Hoboken in 1858. The development of the game was
checked by the Civil War, but was revived in 1855
when a convention held at which representatives
of 80 clubs were present.
A Rockford ILL.,, team first employed regularly
salaried players but the Cincinnati Red Stockings,
organized in 1863 is considered the first professional
club. It made tour in 1859, winning SO games
without meeting single defeat. In 1870 it won 20
straight games being defeated in the 30th by the At
lantics of Brooklyn.
Gamblers having gotten control of the game, a
convention held in Louisville in 1876, at which
strict rules to bribery betting by players
and other abuses were adopted, and the National
League formed. There now more than 20
professional leagues, of which the National and the
American, originally the Western, formed by Ban
Johnson in 1899 the two 'bg leagues"
The most significant event in baseball history

as baseball car in 1920.

Edited by Ferdinand ]. Wiener of
the Wiener Nursery.
Gardening is in full swing every
where. Hardy plants have already
been planted out although the
more tender kinds should not be
planted out until danger of frost
is past.
Blackberries and raspberries re-
quire some spring care for best re-
suits. All canes striped with rust
should be cut out if this has not
already been done. Spray now with
lime sulphur. Badly infected ones
should be destroyed and new plants
set out in another part of the gar
den.
Plant seeds of annual flowers over
lily beds. Sow annual phlox an
nual larkspur or verlvena. Their
roots are short and do not interfere
with the lilies besides they like
their company and furnish bloom
after lilies are gone.
A great many plants are set out
every spring by the unsuspecting
gardener that are already or as
good as dead which is one Of the
causes of failure. Dormant shrubs
which have spent days or even
weeks in transit and which have
been handled by chain or depart
ment stores which have no facili-
ties to keep them in good condition,
so by the time the customer re-
ceives them, no power on earth
can revive them. When possible,
get "fresh dug" plants.
All plants should be cut back
from 1-3 to IL after planting or
even more. They will eventually
make the better plants.
