P. L. Smiths vs. Chicago Gunthers.

The F L Smiths defeated the once famous Chicago Gunthers at West Side Ball Park Wednesday afternoon by a score of 6 to 2.

The game was one sided and anything but interesting to watch. The Smiths scored three runs in the first inning. It took the Gunthers by sur- prise and they seemed to lose all heart in the game. The Smiths would have won the game without scoring another run but to make a greater total to the score and gain a larger lead they scored again in the third and fifth.

Hamilton pitched a great game for the home team, striking out thirteen of the once famous Gunthers. He was very effective in pinches. He was in danger in the seventh and ninth inning, •but through his effective work and good support of the team only one run was made by the Gunthers in each inning. At no other time during the game did a Chicago man reach farther than first base.

The business houses were all closed during the game and a good crowd was out to witness the contest. Al- though somewhat disappointed with the showing the Gunthers made all left the ball park with the feeling of spirit that Dwight has "Some ball team."

The feature of the game was the throw from deep center by Breneisa to Ketcham at first base, making a perfect throw and completing a double play.

The Livingston Parks were the vic- tims of the F. L. Smiths at West Side Park Sunday, June 10th. Mickelson was on the mound for the Smiths and he pitched a fine game. Jody Knight, the first man up, connected for a good safe drive to right center for two bases. The other four hits credited to the visitors were Texas leaguers of the scratchy variety. Acklin went along nicely until the fourth inning when he weakened. Trecker started things with a nice hit. Gutel hit down the third base line for three bases. Burns followed with a two base hit. J. Ketcham celebrated his return to game after a seven year va- cation by putting the ball over the shed back of the left field fence for a home run. This is the longest hit made on the grounds since Ketcham defeated the Chicago Union Giants with the same kind of a drive in the seventh inning of a game played in 1907. Mickelson followed Ketcham with a nice clean single. Manager Knight chased Asklin and Donahue ended the inning by striking out Niel- son and Naas. One run, enough to win the game,`was scored on Donahue in the seventh on a base on balls to Naas and Boyer's long single. Gutel singled in the ninth but was caught off first.

Irwin, the Pontiac catcher, was the champion strike out artist. He Whit- ed three times without even fouling

one off. Dockie Miller played a nice game at

third and Trecker starred in the out- field; his double play in the fourth when he caught B. Jobst at the plate shut off the only chance Pontiac had to score.

The 'Smiths are 'hitting like fiends and fielding like major leaguers and from now on will be hard to beat. Mickelson and Hamilton are both in fine shape and the heavy hitters on visiting teams will have their troubles rom now on.

SHOE REPAIRING

Arrangements have just been completed with the Illinois Central Rail- road to furnish a special train to Ur- bana for the farm operators of this county, Wednesday, July 1st. A round trip ticket will be sold at one-way rate, making the round trip ticket from Pontiac $2.32.

The officials of the Illinois Central Railroad agreed to furnish this special train at one-half fare as a special assistance to the Livingston County Soil and Crop Improvement Associa- tion. The officials of this road feel that should they carry our people at approximately cost, they would yet be much ahead ultimately. Better meth- ods of crop production and of soil management are just as essentially important to the railroads of the county as to the towns and villages, or the farmers themselves. It is ipdeed very gratifying to know that the I. C. officials have taken this position. It should also be reassuring to those who are looking more carefully into the business details, science and best prac- tices of farming. Big business enter- prises everywhere have already recog- nized the importance of better soil and crop management and their con- victions are being backed up by sub- stantial financial and moral support.

This train will be started at Minonk about 4:30 a. m. July 1st and make all stops in the county. It will be necessary to go by way of Kankakee and the time required for the trip will be about four hours. Train will leave Urbana on return trip at about 6:30 p. m.

The object of this trip is for the purpose of giving our people an op- portunity to get intimately acquainted with the work of the College of Agri- culture and the Experiment Station farm, also to see the results obtained on the Experiment Station farm plots. Un these plots practically all the results in crop production and soil and livestock management which have been read about in bulletins and agricultural papers and which have been discussed in our agricultural meetings will be seen actually demon- strated under field conditions. Not only this, but hundreds of greenhouse pot cultures, showing the effect of all essential elements of plant food upon the plant and the proper method of soil management will be seen. Feed- ing cattle; dairy cows; heavy and light horses; mules; hogs; poultry, etc., a ill be inspected and the entire day will be spent in seeing these things and tearing them discussed by College Professors who are in charge of the work.

Plans are being made at the Uni- versity for the entertainment of the women Ladies are specially invited to take this trip. The Household Sci- ence Department of the University will be open to them and members of this faculty will take charge of the party. The ladles will also be interested in the field plots and it is de- sired that they shall accompany the men on this field inspection.

The program for the day has been about completed with the University. Noonday lunch will be served in the magnificent new stock judging pa- vilion on the Experiment Station farm. At this time several short ad- dresses by University officials will be delivered.

It will be necessary for those desir- ing to go, to send their names to the Livingston County Soil and Crop Im- provement Association office, at Pon- tiac, or to register in that office by June 25th. The number of coaches and train accommodations and arrangements at the University will de- pend upon the number of persons who shall take this trip. Everyone interested in the agriculture of this county is invited to join the party on this trip.-Roy C. Bishop, Agent, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, Pontiac, Ill.

Insects Damaging Corn. Due to the dry weather, the work

of Insects is showing up strikingly in the corn.

The particular insect which is working the greatest destruction, now, is the corn root aphis. Already several fields have been destroyed. Some have thought their poor stand and weak plants are due to seed of low vitality when, in fact, the aphis is bringing •this about.

Now is the time to study the aphis. If corn has been planted on the same land two or more times you can ex- pect this Insect. Its presence is always betrayed by large numbers of small ants which will be seen working about the corn plants. It will also be noted that plants affected with the aphis are quite small, weak and yel- lowish. Remove the plants carefully with a shovel and gently cause the dirt to fall away from the roots. Ob- serve all exposed roots before the dirt is shaken from the roots. The aphis is apple green in color. Many of them will not be larger than the head of a pin. Some will be larger and have wings. A good place to look for the aphis is on the roots near the mother kernel. Watch the ants when the soil about the roots of the plants is just loosely opened up. They will be seen to feed upon the back of the aphis where a sweet exudate is found.

These ants are the keepers of the aphis without the ant the aphis I. not able to secure its feed. The ants care for the eggs and see to it tha t the small aphis are properly fed.

A harrow, or weeder, used so as to stir the ground immediately aroun d the stalk of the young plants will stop the ravage of these pests to a consid erable extent. This operation de stroys the ant nests and leaves the aphis uncared for. Frequent cultiva tion, throwing some soil to the corn will also help. In those cases, how ever, where the percent of stand has been very much lowered and the field is badly infected, it is advisable to pulverize the soil vigorously, harrow and replant: Late vigorous puverizin g will, in most cases, prevent any fur there injury from the aphis.-Roy C. Bishop, Agent, U. S. Dept. of Agricul- ture.

The Answer is Pound in the straight- forward Statement of a Kan-

kakee Resident.

We have been reading week after week in the local press of Dwight citi- zens who have been rid of distressing kidney and bladder troubles by Doan's Kidney Pills, and we have often won- dered whether the same high opinion of this medicine is to be found in our neighboring towns. This frank and earnest statement by • a well-known and respected resident of Kankakee will set this doubt at rest.

F. M. Karr, 519 Harrison Ave., Kan- kakee, Ill., says: "I have no reason to change my good opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills which I publicly express- ed some years ago. I use them occa- sionally, When I have need of a kidney medicine and I always get good results. I suffered from a lame back and other kidney disorders for years. When I got up in the morning, I felt just as tired as when I went to bed and the kidney secretions were un- natural. Doan's Kidney Pills were recommended to me and I got a. box. They were just what I needed and in a few months the troubles had en- tirely disappeared. I hope that my experience will help other kidney suf- ferers."
