Travis, Myer Feel Heat.

DLAYING for Hollywood in 1888,
L Strange batted 1924. driving in 81
runs and scoring SO. in addition to
fielding $50 He won a place on the
Coast League all-star team that year
and then was purchased by the
Browns.
Strange's current opportunity not
only promises considerably more action
this season. but might we'll be chance
with unlimited possibilities. Bluege
still Is one of the greatest inf1elders
of them all, but even Ossie cannot last
forever. Strange is almost 10 years
younger than Bluege and already
seems to be capable of giving a good
imitation of Ossie afleld.
AS matter of fact unless the Ma
tionals hit cooler weather, it is not
improbable that both Strange and
Bluege will see considerable action
side by side. OSsie is not the only
infielder feeling the heat these days.
Cecil Travis appears thinner. although
his game has not been affected. while
Buddy Myers recent play at second
base has suggested that the Griffs'
doughty field captain also is feeling
the sun rays.
Luckily, Bluege can handle both
third and second base as well as short
stop and if the heat begins to tell on
the boys too much Bucky Harris will
have little to worry about as far as
always being able to rest an inflelder
is concerned.

of a definite line on the blond young

last month. But Buckv at least gained
an inkling of considerable promise
and he is keen for few more looks.
Like Larry. Strange is no great shucks
as a hitter. At least he never has
been a dangerous swatter during his
season and a half in the majors, but
the stocky Californian is reckoned
among the smoothest fielders in the
circuit. This, added to the belief OF
Harris that Strange might improve at
bat prompted his nomination over
Red KreSs, the Nationals prize handy

Stranges complete professional rec
ord would indicate that he is pliable
material to work on. While he batted
only .233 in 1884, his first season in
the big show, and is hitting only a
little above that figure this season,
Strange was something of batsman
in the Pacific Coast League.

Agriculture and the AAA

Estimates made public by officials Of the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administration short time ago.
reveal that of the United States will receive
approximately $50 million dollars for their partici-
patton in the crop adjustment program during 1885
This figure is about twenty millions less than tney
received for 1884
The relatively small reduction in payments this
year will affect principally the corn-hog and TOBACCO
raisers for whom restrictions will be relaxed to some
extent On the other hand, it Is estimated that pay
ents to cotton will be somewhat larger this
year than last
Considerable dissatisfaction has been expressed
by the cotton manufacturing industry because OF the
processing tax which it is claimed places cotton
goods at disadvantage in competition with other
fabrics such as rayon and also makes 1t more d11-
cult to sell in competition with Japan in both DOM
este and foreign markets.
An amendment to the work-relief bill authorizes
the President to relief money in lieu of the pro-
cessing to farmer bonuses, but 1t is
said that this authority will not be used by him.
There is wide divergence Of opinion as to whether
benefits to agriculture will accrue through
the carrying out of present AAA policies Neverthe-
less it is that the cornhog and wheat payments
made in this drouth have not only been a Won
derful benefit to the farmers but everyone else as
we'll The program, however, will probably be con-
tinued only long is necessity, as it has been
proven that permanent results are not obtained
through artificial devices. The payments have acted
as stimulus for business in the agricultural COM
rnunities which together with other government aid
programs nave helped through a severe winter

Facts About Easter

Christians throughout the world will simultan-
eousy commemorate Christ's resurrection Easter
Sunday which falls April d. this year. This is not
the actual anniversary of the resurrection its date
varies from year to year, in accordance with meth
cd of computing it adopted by the Council of Nice
in the year 325
The custom of celebrating Easter is really
outgrowth of the Jewish Passover There is trace
of its observance Christian festival in the New
Testament in the writings of the apostolic faith
Most of the early Christians were former men,
bers of the Jewish religion. hence many of the old
Jewish festivals continued to be observed by them
and gradually passed into the Christian calendar.
The Easter is derived from Eastre the
AngloSaxon goddess of spring In the ancient Christ
ian Church the celebration of Easter lasted eight days
but after the eleventh century, it was limited to
three, later to two and finally to one day.
The proper time for the observance of Easter has
been the subject of controversy among various Christ
ian groups The Greek church did not adopt the Ro-
man date until 1929 so that only during the last II
years has the entire Christian world observed Easter
simultaneously
According to present usage Easter can not oc-
cur earlier than March % later than April 25 The
last time it fell March % was in 1873 after which
three centuries must elapse before it occurs so
early again It fell April Is the last time in 1886,
and will late only once in the present CEN
fury, in 1913

Well, Why Go On?
Who knows but what this great
American bread basket, as these
western states have been called,
may in some future time become a
great desert? The climatic condi-
tions which have prevailed during
the past ten or fifteen years when
it has become dryer each succeed

a great change has taken place. A
few more years like last year will
transfer this whole region into a
devastated country. Changes like
these have occurred in the past
ages and 1t is quite reasonable to
conclude that they might occur
again. It is not pleasant to con-
template, but the forces Of nature
move in mysterious way and a

Old Age Pensions
One worthwhile thing this de-
preston has done and that is to
bring sharply to the fore the nee
essity for making suitable provis-
ions for the aged who are no long
er able to support themselves. In
the matter of caring for this class
we are far behind most Of the CIV
ilized countries in Europe where
they have had old age pensions for
several decades.
AT last our government is about
to do something along this line.
There is now pending in Congress
a measure that marks a begin
ming. True, 1t falls far short Of the
hopes of many but nevertheless a
move in the right direction.
Few things in life are more
tragic than old dependent age, the
spectre of which oftimes turns
what should be a golden sunset in
to a dark and forboding storm
cloud that casts it's shadows over
the last part of too many journeys.
Let us hope that this Congress will
enact an old age pension law that
will remove the economic hazards
of old age.-Wadena Pioneer Jour-
nal.
