TIGERS ADD TO LEAGUE MARGIN Despite Rowe’s Ineffectiveness, Detroit Holds Good Lead New York, Aug. 2. —(U.R>—The Detroit Tigers, functioning less efficiently than the team which won the American .'eague pennant in 1934, nevertheless are games better off than they were at this steie of the race a year ago. It was on August 1, 1934, that the Tigers gained a single game lead on the New York Yankees—a lead they never lost during the remainder of the campaign. To-; day Mickey Cochranes tnen rest 2% games ahead of the Yaffkees. i The Tigers' rise to their present formidable position !s somewhat phenomenal when compared with their record a year ago. Lynwood (Schoolboy) Rowe, ace . of the Tiger pitchers, on August 2. 1934 was in the midst of a 10-game stieak, Which he eventually increas- 1 ed to 16. ajid had lost only four games. This season Rowe Is far below tha' peak—he has won nine and lost nine—but still the Tigers are leading the .'eague. The reas-' ADAMS COUNtT FARM LAND How Some of Our Farms May Be Purchased We are glad to present a plan whereby a number of farm properties that we have for sale may bq* purchased and the purchaser | given an opportunity to own the property outright even though his cash in hand is comparatively i.mall. The purchaser is also given the opportunity of getting his farming operations on a productive basis without heavy payments after he comes into possession of | the property. Here is how it can be done Purchaser to pay 15% of the purchase price. Then, additional required annual payments on account of the purchase price may total as little as 15% during the first five years and less during the second five years, if desired, | Further payments in even hundreds of dollars with accrued interest may be made on account of the purchase price at any time. , iNow the interest payments are , as follows: First year: 2% on the ; unpaid balance. Second year: 2% on the unpaid balance. Third year: 3% on the unpaid balance. Fourth year: 4% on the unpaid balance and Fifth year: 5% on the unpaid balance. For the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth years. SV, % upon the unpaid balance. Deed will be given when 3f>% of the purchase price is paid. Values are rapidly changing and these terms and any prices quoted are subject to change without notice. All interest is payable semiannually but any payments made on the principal is made at the end of each year. We have other fine plans also. 1 Surely if there ever was a time for any ambitious farmer or investor to buy it is now. It is wisdom to buy on a rising market. Write, call or phone us.

YANKS' PILOT FREE AT LAST TO BUILD TEAM McCarthy Steps Out From Ruth Shadow For First Time By George Kirksey, (UP. Staff Correspondent) New York.—<U.R>—Whether they win or lose the pennant, numerous changes are anticipated in the New lork Yankees next season now .that Joe McCarthy has been signed as manager for 1936 and 1937. When McCarthy first came to the Yanks in 1931. Col. Jacob Ruppert said he hired him because he is a "team builder." With Babe Ruth constantly Im king in the background threa'ening to take his job during his first four years with the Yanks, McCarthy wa.s never quite free to carry out his plans. Ruth didn't pass out of the picture soon enough before the 1935 season for McCarthy to make the necessary changes in the Yanks to build a. team for the future. With the Ruth problem settled once and for all by the mid-season signing of McCarthy to a new contract at $35,000 a season, the Yankees' leader is expected to make radical changes this winter. Stars Begin To Dim Both the Yankees’ outfield and Infield need renovating. Lou Gehrig at first and possibly Ben Chapman in the outfield are the only fixtures. With 10 years of service behind him, Tony Lazerri hasn’t many more campaigns ahead of him. Crosetti at shortstop probable will go on for several seasons, but McCarthy ajready is looking tor a man to take his place. Red Rolfe at third hasn't proved over the whole route that he is a major leaguer. The outfield is even in worse shape than the infield. Many fans ter.n the Yanks' outer defense “an International League outfield.” Earl Combs, playing great ball considering his 12 years of service and .'ast year's collision with a wall at St. L ills which almost wrecked his career, hasn’t much longer to go on. George Selkirk, the 29-year-old rookie who took Ruth's plage lias played in and out baseball all season. Chapman didn't improve his standing with the fans when he said he intended to quit trying to steal bases to save his legs. Pitching Staff Promising The Yanks' pitching staff is the brightest spo.t for the future. Johnny Broaco and Vito Tamulis seem to have a long stretch of valuable service ahead of them. Johnny Allen has survived a "dead arm” and promises to be the ace of the staff for several years. Despite the fact that he has experienced rough going this season, Vernon Gomez should continue to be one of the leading left-handers in the majors for several more years. Jimmy De Shong, Johnny Murphy and Walter Brown round out what is perhaps the youngest and best-balanced pitching staff in e7ther league. Bill Dickey is one of baseball’s best catchers, but injuries continue to dog his career. The Yanks need a young second-string catcher to take part of the load off Dickey's shoulders. The Yanks have never finished lower than second under McCarthy, but they have won only one pennant. The team always has lacked something in the pinches. A couple of replacements here and there, and a slugger to pair up with Gehrig are needed to rebuild the Yanks K J B XvsßT w....... il W "xv-v v makes it the BIGGEST SELLING Chocolate Syrup It cost $50,000 to perfect this chocolate flavor, but you'll say it’s worth it, once you’ve tried $50,000 chocolate.
