Harris Comedies Sox an Edge,

RUcKY HARRIS is one who felt
obligated to salaam in the presence
OF Dykes. "Chicago's got so many
pitchers that Dykes doesn't need Ken
nedy," said Bucky. "Piet never was
important and in swapping Dixie
Walker for Gerald Walker he got a
80 per cent better outf1elder and
hitter Chicago wound up with fine
third baseman and catcher, who
probably will be ready for regular duty
when Luke Sewell is ready to quit"
Overnight the White Sox have be-
come flag threats. Dykes has two fine
starting pitchers in Monty Stratton
and Johnny Whitehead, and two
promising youngsters in Bill Cox from
st. Paul and John Rigney. In addi-
ton, there are Thornton Lee, Bill
Dietrich, Ted Lyons and Clint Brown,
valuable veterans.
II Rigney and Cox between
them can take up the slack that
may be caused by Kennedy's de-
parture, the Sox may be very,
very tough to beat.
Dykes and Lou Comiskey have rid
den to buying, selling and trading
glory in the few fruitful years they
have spent together. In 1882 Comiskey
bought Al Simmons, Dykes and Mule
Haas from Philadelphia for 500, 900.
What he really got was two outfielders,
fine drawing card, third baseman
and one of the best managers in the
league for exactly $25,000.
All for $25.0o0.
HE trick wasn't done with mirrors.
Simmons packed in crowds at
Chicago for three years, in spite Of
his disappointing performances. Haas
played a lot of outfield for the Sox and
Dykes was no bum on third base. Then
Dykes was made manager.
One of Jimmy's early acts was to sell
Summons to Pal Mickey Cochrane for
a cool $4,000. That was getting out
from under heavy investment. The
Sox got three years of service out Of
one of the most famous outfielders in
history and still had Manager Dykes
and a good utility player in Haas. And
| all for $4,000!
Prior to the sale of Simmons to De-
troit for $4,000, which happened only
year before Detroit resold AL to
Washington for $500, Dykes made
his first deal as manager of the Sox.

Beware the "Porky"
%sIsd

Perhaps the best description OF the
porky's appearance, says woodman,
is that Of an Adirondack guide who
called him "a humly critter with an
ingrowin' face" The only "humlier
critter" than a full-grown porky is
half-grown one, which may be prop
erly described by likening it to the top
of an old-fashioned ice cream freezer
"a bristle-covered eight inches OF ex-
istence that seems to have neither
head nor tail
The quilts of the porcupine are set
lightly in the skin, when imbedded
in foe, they pull free at the base
and remain in the flesh of the victim.
Countless tiny barbs at their tips
cause them to work deeper and deep
er, causing dreadful torture, until they
finally reach vital spot, when death
puts an end to the victims suffering.

STATE FARM BUREAU SECRE
TARY REPORTS ON LAWS
OF INTEREST TO AGRI-
CULTURE

Seventeen measures were sponsor
ed in the recent regular session OF
the Maryland legislature by organic
ed farmers of the state, and 16 of
these are now ON the statute books,
according to a summary sent late
last week to every member of the
Maryland Farm Bureau by c. E.
Wise, Jr., secretary of the organiza
ton. The summary was not sent
until after all measures passed dur
ing the session were acted upon by
the Governor, he reports.
Measures of outstanding import
ance to farmers reported by Mr..
Wise included provision for continu-
ance of gas tax money for local roads
and prohibition of gas tax diversion,
appropriations for disease and pest
control of crops and livestock, and
state enabling laws for soil conserva-
ton and soil erosion work.
1.-THE recent legislature made pro-
vision for the establishment for the
first time of some real agricultural
fairs" according to Mr. Wise. Twin
measures provide for the establish
ment of State Fair Fund by levy
of 1 per cent on bets at half-mile
tracks to be used partly for local ag-
ricultural fairs, and partly to state
fund, and for the establishment of a
State Fair Board to administer such
funds. Maryland now has the OPP
portunity of building up its agricul-
tural exhibitions to a point where
they will compare favorably with
those of neighboring states"
Provision for referendum on a
state income tax will decide it's con-
stitutionality and allow this form OF
tax to be used to replace property
levies, move long advocated by or
ganized farmers, according to Mr..
Wise. Other measures of Importance
referred to in his report include a
new law to curb poultry thievery
amending an old law to provide for
more strict regulation of those prac-
ticing veterinary medicine, and the
use of convict labor on roads.
Appropriations fostered by organ
lied farmers include those covering
control of the Japanese bean beetle,
Bangs disease of cattle, and support
of land grant college agricultural
research, according to the report.

Girls Surpass Boys in I.
Growth During Childhood

"Boys and girls are different" mains
tains Ruth Sawtell Wallis, writing inl
Hygeia Magazine. 1t may be surpris-l
ing to note that between two and
eight years of age it is the girl mott
the boy, who has the more grown-upI
build. The same process of growthl
marks the length Of arms and legs
the short bent legs of the baby stretch
ing and growing until they predomi-
nate over the arms that waved SO
comparatively long and free at birth.
The little girl shows her earlier ma
turity at every year before thirteen
or fourteen, when her adult leg length
has usually been reached.
Even in roundness Of the head and
maturity of form the girl surpasses
the boy, but he has advantages In 9TH
err respects. The breadth of boys
bones is always greater, and the heads.
faces and jaws are somewhat larger
from birth.
The number of permanent teeth, the
amount of cartilage changing into
bone, the proportions Of leg length to
trunk length and Of arm length to
leg length mark the earlier maturity
of girls as well as the arrival Of
adolescence at thirteen or fourteen
years. In these traits. boys lag be-
hind, but eventually they will reach,
both in actual size and in boy build,
the type that is farthest away from
the baby. - al

Ripening Lemons

The Department of Agriculture
says that lemons are never harvested
after they are ripe. They are picked
as soon as they have attained a GER
tain size and they are usually as green
as the leaves on the trees. They are
then laid on trays, one layer thick, and
the trays so arranged that there is no
pressure upon the lemons. The lemons
are stored in a dark place at tenn
perature around 45 degrees. When it
is desirable to ripen them for use they
are subjected to temperature Of
about 80 degrees with plenty Of mois-
ture in the air. This ripens them very
quickly.

SAVING TIME IN
/ KITCHEN CHORES
Efficient Cooking Equipment
Important Factor.
BY EDITH M. BARBER

HE efficient housekeeper is al
L ways on the lookout for kitchen
equipment which will help her cut
down the time of preparation of
meals. If she can afford an electric
mixer, she will find in it a first
aid for many purposes. Suitable
types of cooking utensils are not
only time saving but also an in
surance that results will be good.
A saucepan of proper size, for
instance, is a necessary adjunct to
a successful sauce.
For many purposes heat proof
casseroles which can be used for
baking and serving are useful. Re-
Gently heat proof glass saucepan
and frying pan have been added
to the list of convenient utensils.
Both of these have removable
handles which are useful when
transferring these dishes from the
stove to the table. The saucepan
has cover which fits perfectly. I
like this particularly well for cook
ing vegetables in a small amount
of water as, because of the transpar-
ency, the mind can be relieved from
worry as to the progress of cooking.
Another new utensil is a stain
proof aluminium mixing bowl which
has small handle at the side which
may be grasped while mixtures are
stirred or beaten. Other conven-
fences which are not so new but
which are novel are the racks for
pans and plates which fit in covered
shelves, the cover racks which can
be fastened to the wall or closet
door and the transparent fat-topped
covers for piles of your best plates
and for your mixer. These are dust
proof and for this reason are well
coined particularly by the business
woman housekeeper.
Pineapple and Mint.
Slice pineapple in one-eighth inch
slices. Sprinkle with sugar and chill
in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Pour one tablespoon of sherry over
each serving and garnish with
sprigs of mint.
Fried Liver.
Pour boiling water over one-half
inch slices of calves liver. Drain
at once and remove skin and veins.
Dip in seasoned flour and saute
slowly on both sides in bacon fat or
butter. The whole time of cooking
should not be more than five min
utes, as overlooking will tougher
the fibers.
