Young Pitchers
Scarce, Says
J0eCr0nin

BOSTON. Mass, July 9.-Joe
Cronin, manager of the Boston
Red Sox, joining in the wide
spread discussion on hittin 6
Sprees prevalent this season in the
major leagues, attributes the ball,
pounding to lack Of sturdy young
pitchers.
He said today he agreed with
the recently expressed view Of
Connie Mack that new talent is
not coming along to take the place
Of fading veterans, especially in
the American league.
I'm the past three years." he
said, COMPARATIVELY few young
pitchers have been brought into
the American league. The vet
Grams are beginning to weaken
and there are no youngsters to
take their places.
"SchoolbOy Rowe Of the
Tigers, Vernon Kennedy Of the
White SOx and Buck NewsOm Of
the Senators are the only three
standOut pitchers brought into
the league in the last two or
three seasons.
"After many seasons the great
veterans are not able to pitch
as often as they once did, yet
they actually are being asked to
pitch more often because Of
present conditions.
"And the job Of the veterans
has been made still tougher be-
cause Of the great crop of hit
tiers brought up as infielders and
Outfielders in the last couple Of
seasons.
"But 1 can't tell you what has
happened to the crop of young
pitchers, and don't think any
other manager can. They SIM
ply have failed to develop, l sup

SPRING LAKE, N. j., July 9.
Frank Parker, Of Milwaukee, de-
Tending champion in the Spring

the equivalent of pitching a no-hit,

The Clark Griffiths and the

hards of the younger of the

no word for their verbage.
Generally, Generalissimo Nc,

with an additional count of not
taking a tumble to himself sooner
than he did and replacing the

And Furthermore
Mccarthy also, in the eyes Of
the grandstand American League

nature of an aftermath to the

It would seem, therefore, that
all the American Leaguers want is
100 per cent of everything. After
that, the National League is well

under the collar that the National

Many Vegetables
Can Be FerI1l1nlented
For An Appetizer
Product Is Known. a. as
"Sauer Rueben'', Among; )
j.. the Germans Song

Europeans have long used fer
mented turnips, beans, and other
vegetables as well as fermented
cabbage or sauerkraut. "Sauer
ruben" is the German name for
fermented turnips, an appetizing,
easily made food. Both spring and
fall turnips may be used, but the
fall crop gives better results. ..
Recent studies Of sauer ruben
by the bureau Of chemistry and
soils show that the best-sized tur-
nips range from 2 1-2 to 8 1-2
inches in diameter. This size pro-
duceS sauer ruben of superior
flavor and texture compared with
very small or very large roots.
The sweeter the variety of tur-
nip the better. -. 0argr .>c2&
The investigators say that un-
peeled shredded turnips produce
sauer ruben Of superior quality
resembling the texture of sauer-
hraut more closely than when the
turnips are ground or sliced.
Peeling the turnips removes some
of the sugar and results in a prod
uct with very milk flavor but
low acidity and inferior keeping
quality. ra,y n,,g ~ .'F Uo,
o Slightly less salt than is used
in making sauerkraut gives the
.best-flavored sauer ruben. When
the fermentation reaches the de-
sired stage of acidity the sauer
ruben may be canned in tin, or
kept in open stone jars with the
surface completely covered by
mineral oil; or it may be ferment-
ed from the start in glass jars and
sealed without processing as soon
as the fermentation stops. De-
tailed directions for these three
methods of treatment are given
in circular issued by the United
States department of agriculture.
q The important feature in the
entire process is to exclude AR
from the saaer ruben throughout
fermentation and storing. N,'

Poultryman, North Carolina State
College

In general the poultry industry
of a state is just as advanced as
the quality of chicks produced IN
that state. This implies that IN
such states the bulk of the chicks
Matched and developed each year
are produced within the state
Consequently, commercial hatch
cries supplying the poultrymen
bear the responsibility of placing
on the market disease-free chicks
with high constitutional vigor and
careful breeding in back of them
In North Carolina, the hatchery
industry in. general has a reallza'
ton of this responsibility. During
the past few years marked prog
ress has been made in breeding
up the supply flocks. A NUMBER
of the, .hatcheries have all OF their
supply flocks headed with pedl-
greed males, while other hatch
cries have, during the present
wear, purchased eggs from trap
nestled flocks of known perform
apce. toe-punched the chicks from
such eggs, and are rearing males
for breeding purposes.
PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION
-Four years ago, the hatcheries
cooperating with this state in
blood-testing work organized into
an association known as the North
Carolina Mutual Hatchery asse-
citation. Starting with a small num-
Der of members, the association is
now firmly established and at the
present time has 43 members with
approximately 1000, OOO-egg in.

by these hatcheries are purchased

Time Here For
Vaccination OF
Poultry--W White
By C. D. WHITE
County Farm Agent

1t is a common, practice now
with poultrymen to vaccinate
their pullets for diphtheria, chick
en- pox and canker. This should
be done when the pullets are be-
tween 10 and 16 weeks of age.
At this age the birds will have
fully recovered before they get
ready for the laying house and if
delayed until pullets start laying,
serious delay in getting the pull
lets into lay will result.
Last year one of our poultry
men had this sad experience, and
as a result his birds did not show
4 profit until after the first of the
wear. This treatment is inexpen-
Sive, costing only about 1-2 cent
per bird. If you are bothered
with chicken pox, by all means
vaccinate.
