Indianapolis Sept 1, —Leaders of professional baseball and political I and business leaders of Indiana and Kentucky will be among the shouting crowd of fans who will witness the first games to be played in Ferry Stadium, the new 1330,000 ball park of the Indianapolis Indians. The opening series of five • games, beginning the Saturday he-1 fore Labor Day, will be between the Indians and their old rivals, the Louisville Colonels, and Louisville and southern Indiana fans will make up a big part of the crowds at these games. Commissioner K. M. Landis, "king" of organized baseball; President T. J. Hickey of the American Association. President John Heydler of the National League, President William Harridge of the American League, and the presidents of the other seven clubs in the American Association are among the baseball magnates whom Norman Perry, owner of the Indianapolis club, has invited to be present at the first

poses, Beeson reports. While rye seedings may be made in September, it is advisable to delay wheat sowing until the ’• fly free date became of danger, of Hessian Fly infestation in I early sown wheat. The fly will I spread from fields pastured to i other fields and so much damage ! to wheat intended for harvest While wheat is not generally regarded as a pasture erop. some' wheat is pastured annually art! during the past fall, winter and spring, it was used extensively for pasture with good results. During the less favorable season damage would doubtless be more serious, but low cost of seed wheat and the need for pasture to cut feed costs stress the possibil-1 ity of pasturing wheat or sowing j fields particularly for this pur ! pose. As thorough seed Bed preparation as is usually made is de-! sirable. and especially where I grass will be sown, in the fall ' hnd clover in the spring. , 1 On fields high enough in line. I sweet clover can bo sown in ■ wheat or rye in the late winter or. early spring, as it will stand much , trampling and still come through with good growth in the summer and fall. Rod clover does not ap ' pear to stand as much tramping. * nnd is not as drouth resistant as sweet clover or alfalfa. Seed bed preparation is the same son either wheat or rye. Unless sown in corn or soybean' ground, the soil should be plowed.; 1 and worked down in good condi-1 tion for drilling. One and a half' ■ Htshels is the usual rate of seed-j I ing. Better growth, more winter i hardiness and greater livestock i carrying capacity and better] stands of grasses and clovers will i result from the use of 150 to 2501 I pounds per acre of a good grade I ’ commercitl fertilizer as 0-14-6. i 2-12-6 or straight superphosphate. I i Six or eight pounds of timothy i or red top or a mixture of 4 - pounds of timothy and 4 pounds I

Rob- . inson, lamis Ludlow, congressman ■ from the old Seventh district; Louis, Borlnstein, president of the Indian-1 apolis Chamber of Commerce; W. i Hathaway Simmons, president of i the Indianapolis Board of Trade, and the presidents of 17 luncheon ■ clubs of Indianapolis. The new ball park is on the north bank of White river, in the northwestern part of the city, not far from Riverside park. Fans who, have seen ball games in cities from ■ coast to coast say this is the equal | of any ball yard in the country, in ' its arrangements so that all spec-1

i of English blue grass sown this fall in the rye or wheat, with clover sown next spring should give pasture after the rye or l wheat has matured. It is too late to sow such crops ! as Sudan grass, Lespediza and a , ' number of others which must be i sown in the spring or summer. I Alfalfa sown in August or early i September on a well prepared and early plowed seedbed may furnish i hay or pasture next season. The ' soil should he tested for acidity' ! before seeding alfalfa or sweet i clover. If soil is acid, apply from ' 2 to 4 tons of limestone before : seeding these legumes. MONROE NEWS Mr. and Mrs. B.

tators can see the game equally well and in comfort, and in its play- : ing facilities. The concrete grand- ' stand has 13,000 individual chairs. I Boxes and reserved seats run along | the entire lower half of the grand | stand. Bleachers have a capacity | of 2,000 more. The entrance, which, however, will not be completed in time for games this fall, will be constructed after the style of a theatrS entrance, opening on a spacious lobby, I with beamed and decorated ceiling and a terrazo floor. Above the entrance will be the club office building. Along the two sides of the park I opposite the grand stand runs a 16 foot brick wall. The old knot-hole method of seeing the game is outlawed at this park. Further, this wall, five feet higher than at the I old park, will make home runs I "over the fence” much hauler, and I consequently there will be more I playing action. The Perry stadium replaces the ' old West Washington street park, where fans have yelled themselves hoarse every summer for a quarter of a century. Work of tearing down the old plant will be begun -about September 1. The first game in the new park ' will be played the same day as the opening day of the Indiana State Fair. Thus the series, which inI eludes a game Sunday, a double ■header Labor Day and the final ■ game Tuesday, will be an added attraction for visitors from outside ' Indianapolis. They will be able to I visit the fair during the bigger part of the day and see the ball game in the afternoon. After this series the Indians go ,on a road trip, and return to the ■new home park for two four-game series. September 2127. The season closes with a double header I Sunday, September 27.
