johnson came to Washington
in 1907 and remained in the CAPT.
tai for 81 years. His tenure of
service with a single club exceeds
that of any other pitcher. Herb
Pennock was in the American
League for 20 years. but his serv'
ice was with three clubs.
johnson pitched 808 games in
the American League and won
416 of them. These are records,
and in view of the fact that
Washington finished in the second
division in 10 out of Walters 81
years, his performances were
more than remarkable.
johnson led the league in COM
plete games in six years. He did
this in 1911, 10. IA, is, rs and
10. In 1908 he pitched three con-
secutive games against the New
York Yankees and won them by
shutouts. johnson allowed 1.09
earned runs per nine inning
game based on 346 innings. and
for six years he led the league in
earned runs allowed. This topped
his four-year record in leading
the league in percentage.
Won Is in Row
It is known to each and several
that johnson shares the American
League record for consecutive vic
tories with l6, and that in three
consecutive years he won % or
more games per season. He beat
the White Sox 8 times in the sea,
son Of 1912.
These are a few of the Big
Trains records. Looking at his
performances over the years, we
find that from 1910 through 1919
inclusive, 10 bitter. strife.filled
years, the Big Train won 20 or
more games per season. His peak
year was 1918 when he won SO
games and lost 7. In 1912 he won
80 games. And in those days ball
players were ball players.
Walter johnson was always as

ageouS in action. In the days
when he had to shut out a team
to win he would say at the start
of the game: "Get me one run"

CORN-HOG CONTRYCT
NOW Being PREPARED

Work has been started on the
contract for the new two year ad
justment program for corn and
hogs following conferences in
Washington of producers, State Ag
ricultural specialists, and Agricul
tural Adjustment Administration
officials on fundamental details of
the new program.
A two year contract, it was thot
would be welcomed by farmers in
order that they might plan their
farming operations more than one
year in advance.
The main objective of the new
program will be to maintain bal
ance between the production and
consumption of corn and hogs dur
ing the next two years. To accom-
plish this objective, it will be nee
essary to Cd prevent an excessive
production of corn in 1886 and
1887, CD allow an increase in
next years pig crop that would be
at least as great as it is estimated
and would take place where no ad
justment program in effect, and CD
prevent an excessive increase in
1887 pig crop.
The Adjustment Administration
has recommended that corn produc
ton next year be limited to 95 mil
lion acres, or about 10 million few
er acres thin would belikely to be
harvested without adjustment. This
would require an aggregate adjust
ment of approximately 20 per cent
on the part of all contract signers.
Depending upon the 1886 corn
crop and the demand expected next
fall for the 1887 crop, maximum
aggregate corn reduction of Is per
cent has been proposed for 1897
Proposed hog adjustments are
calculated to provide for a 80 per
cent increase in Federally inspected
slaughter in 1886 and 1887 above
the slaughter expected in the pres
ent marketing year which began on
Oct. l. 1885. 1t is believed that a
permitted hog production equal to
100 per cent of the base will allow
for the desired increase in hog
numbers next year.
The new corn and hog contract
will require that an area at least
equal to the number of acres held
out of corn be added to the usual
area of the farm devoted to sol
improving and erosion preventing
uses.
