AA'ifh Mike Finn, big league remit, looking 'em over Pitchers Compere and Francis waged a terrible bat.»le In yesterday's game at Jungle park. The local lad had all the better of the argument when the fine points in the game are considered but lost the game in the eighth when a pass, an error, a hit and home run netted ,he visitors three scores. In all Compere yielded only five hits, sdruck out eleven men and passed only two men, while Francis was passing four, striking out seven and yielding eight hits t'p to the eighth the game stood one and one. In this inning Temple scored three runs and Wnxaharhie came hark with one. Again in the ninth Wax aharchie scored but could not tie it up again. The game was a most erratic one, only one earned run being made. Al lison's home run was a scratch, the ball being relayed here and there In an effort to catch him. But two more games will be play ed at Jungle park this season, the game this afternoon and the closing game tomorrow. Effort will be madej to have 1,000 peoplo in the grand stand on farewell day.

NO Hit LAI) TIC'KLTH FOR AMKRICAN8 |N CASK INVASION. There will be no necessity for breud tickets or meat diet restric tions In the United States, in case of invasion by any foreign foe. because ttie American farmer is prepared for emergencies. This 'is (lie lesson drawn from an agricultural pre paredness survey just completed by Rock Island lines, as a voluntary contribution to the movement fof ' industrial preparedness, inaugurated by the naval consulting itoard. Km ergot icy Increase* of from 10 to 60 per cent In the supply of breadstuff* and pork are possible In most of the central Mississippi valley states, according to state ments made by directors of a dnsen slute experiment stations, and pub lished in the July Issue of The South west Trail, the Rock Island’s offl- ' rial farnf magazine. Mr. L. M. Allen, passenger and traffic manager, who had supervis ion of the work, states that the out* bMinding fact Is the ability of the w neat, corn and cotton states not only to sustain tliennudven, but to furnish the bulk of the nation's food supply and to make quick changes in the farming program, should necessity arise. It appears', further, that the nation has available peculiarly efficient and convenient channels for reaching the farmer. These Include state agricultural col U-pes and experiment stations, which’ are supported In part by the govern ment and the county farm adviser system. The latter Is provided for In the Smith-Lever act, which in-' sures appropriations of over $40, OOO.UOO for a nine year period, with an annual continuing appropriation thereafter. Through these arms the government reaches out to the indi vidual farmer to enable quick chan ges in crops when emergencies arise. In a summary of the survey, at tention Is directed to the economic leaks in American agriculture, such’ as tho losses from animal disease* ertlmatcd by Secretary of Agricul ture Houston at $212,000,000 an nually; the shortage of potash dud tc temporary shutting 'off of tho German supply, the necessity foi» mere live stock on every farm td conserve sMl fertility and relieve tho worpl-wlde shortage of beef.
