New York, July 19.-(UP)-This week a fife and drum corps.
 Last week a mile race between Cunningham and the twins rideout.
 Next week-Well, 1t is likely to be East Lynne, because there is no tell ing what Leland Sanford MacPhail will offer fin an effort to get the cus- toners in Ebbets Field to watch the Brooklyn Dodgers play.
 Vaudeville isn't dead at all. It has just removed itself across the river to Brooklyn where MacPhail is de- termined to make money out of e ball club even If the playing of base- ball is relegated to the rear. Tho Dodgers may be in fifth place in the National League but they are tops in Variety's box score. It won't be long before that Bible of the the- atrical trade will be covering the Brooklyn performances in its column "New Acts"
 Since he took charge of the Dodg- CTS, MacPhail has put on almost everything as a pre-game attraction. He has had chamber music, foot races, soloists, tight rope walkers, and now there is report that he is dickering for the parachute jump at the Worlds Fair. He wants 1t, or so the rumor goes, removed to Ebbets Field for the purpose of giving each ticket purchaser a free ride. He wants as his first customers his two pet peeves, Bill Terry and Ford Prick If he could get this pair in the para chute, he would leave them stranded much longer than were the unfor- tunate couple at the Worlds Fair, and would personally shoot any me- chanics who attempted to get them down.
 MacPhail is running the Brooklyns with the finesse of a carnival bark CT, and is getting results. That is, he is making more money than al- most any other club in the league, despite team that is in the second division now and will be in the sec- ond division when the season ends. Tis belief is that baseball is a busi- ness, not sport, and @ tail-end club that makes money is more to be de- sired than a first place club that doesn't.
 He s about as popular with the other league owners as a corsage of poison ivy would be with a nudist. They consider him fresh, brash, radical, and a screwball. This is not surprising, because the average Na- tional League owner or operator frowns on progress as something that has no place in the game of baseball. They operate on the theory that anything good enough for their forefathers is good enough for them.
 MacPhail will take another step toward something on Sunday when he employs the yellow ball in the game with the Cardinals. MacPhail doesn't know whether the yellow ball is any good or not, but he doesn't believe its merits or demerits ever will be settled by studying it behind a roll top desk in the front ofiice. He wants to get 1t out there in a game and find out by experiment how 1t works, and whether or not 1t Is more visible to the spectators and players.
 MacPhail has been a hustler and a chance taker for many a year. He was e member of that brave but

Farmers Make Profit

That there is profit in growing
soybeans is best confirmed by the
fact that the 1888 crop was
Americas largest, and brought
new money to many farmers who
had never before touched this
crop. In many districts where
oats had been grown at a loss.
large number of farmers had
turned heir soil to sOybeans at
commercially high prices compar-
ed with other crops.
According to Lamar Kishlar, a
research authority, production of
soybean oilmeal from the current
rop may exceed 100000 tons, al
though this spectacular new cash
crop is but 16 years old. Produc-
ton figures in the four leading
states of Illinois, Iowa, Indiana
and Ohio were surprisingly large
More than 95 per cent of the
soybean oil meal produced in the
United States is used in feeds for
livestock. pet stock, and poultry.
Many of the best commercial
feeds contain this highly nutri-
tious and palatable protein ingre-
dent, which is relished by all
animals. A leading stock feeder
al expert, said:
"SOybean oil meal, while the
newest important feed ingredient
we have today, is here to stay,
and it's importance in both manu-
featured and home mixed feeds is
destined to increase by leaps and
bounds during the next few
years."
Because of the increasing de-
mand for soybean products, farm
ers who have not already done
so might profit by investigating
the possibilities of this new cash
crop.

The outstanding popularity of

two statesmen of that name were

Write Tt D0acn

Writing demands that one
think clearly, and very often one
can think out a problem on paper
than in ones head.
Some time when YOU have a
particularly knotting problem to
solve analyze it on a piece of
paper.
If you are puzzling over wheth-
er to buy a new piece of machin-
cry, for instance, write down in
one list all the good things that
can be said for the deal, and on
the other side all the bad things
that can be said against It.
This will often clarity your
mind and enable you to make a
decision easily.
Old Ben Franklin was a great
man for writing things down and
some of the best things he has
left us were little things he wrote
down for his own personal guild
ance with no thought of handing
them on to any one else.
