SHAMROCK, ON TRIAL SPIN, SHOWS HER FLEETNESS

Yachting enthusiasts recently got their first glimpse since 1914 of the Shamrock IV, Commodore Lipton's cup challenger, under way when she was taken out for her first trial spin in preparation for the cup events next month. The challenger's speed surprised American critics. It was believed, for one thing, that 6he would be a bit sluggish with the wind abeam. This idea was dispelled quickly.

Reds After Giants; Place

Depends on This Series

NEW YORK, X. Y., June 8. If the Tleds can have the same luck in trimming the lowly Giants as the leading Dodgers had. the league results may be

different. The Reds, however, have a

habit of walloping league leaders and

in turn being trimmed by lowly teams

Brooklyn is scheduled for a four

game series with the St. Louis Cards. The Dodgers, critics say, will be lucky to break even with the fast traveling Cards. Brooklyn at present has a game and a half lead on the second place Reds.

Galveston Frets Under Martial Law; Is Quiet (Fy Associated Press) GALVESTON, Tex., June 8. Military rule prevailed in Galveston today as a result of Governor W. P. Hobby's action yesterday in ordering Texas national guardsmen here to take charge of the situation growing out of the protracted strike of longshoremen. Several hundred troops had arrived and other units were expected. Protest against the Governor's proclamation placing the city under martial law continued to be made today, and It was said legal steps to prevent the carrying out of the term3 of the

"The question of the price of hogs interested me more than the wheat market last fall," said John Branson, ' so I sowed no wheat. What did I put in Instead? Oats and rye for the hogs, to take the place of some of the commercial feeds. It makes a good ration when hogged down; also when harvested. Many men let the hogs run on this combination for a time, then shut them out of the field and let what will ripen for the binder." "We shall have some pretty fair wheat around Whitewater," said he, "and a whole lot not quite so good." Mr. Branson said that he believed all the corn had now been planted for a week or more, that all of It had broken through and farmers are making their first rounds with rollers, culti-packers, harrows, etc." He states that he is now feeding 60 fall shoats for the August market, present average weight about 200 pounds.

His Wheat Fields Vary. Orville Rich, living three miles south of Economy, has one wheat field of 18

acres which looks very promising

right now, and another of 13 acres

which doesn't look nearly so good. No fly touched either of these fields, nor

was there any sign of fly when in

spected last Sunday. Of the 100 hogs on the place 45 are fall shoates which

are fed twice daily in the pasture. Not Suffering for Rain.

"We are not yet suffering for rain," raid Frank McKee, manager of the

elevator at Pershing, "although we

i haven't had a shower in two weeks or better. Everything seems to be grow- ; ing well and corn is mostly above ground and being worked. Old wheat j is practically cleaned up in this vicinity now and we are loading out to t make rom for the new crop. As to wool we haven't figured so far on i handling any at the elevator, in fact I have never done so, though am aware i that some of the co-operative elevator

men have at times handled wool for their patrons. Local or visiting buyers generally care for the clip at this point, though I know of no sales made here this season."

A Car of Middlings Arrives. Eden Martindale, of the Greensfork

co-operative elevator, says that a car

of middlings has arrived and that it is selling to farmers at $60 per ton, which is considerable under recent quotations. Mr. Martindale says that a number of farmers are taking advantage of the elevator offer to pay 50 cents per pound for wool, delivered in bulk as shorn, there being no red tape about bags. These, however, will be used when the wool Is shipped to tk final buyers in assorted lots and qualities. One Soaking Rain Needed. "What we need right now is one good soaking rain. That would maP our wheat, oats and hay crops and would go a long ways toward insuring the corn, which has made such a good start." This was Charlie Bundy's opinion on returning to town on Monday night, from a drive extending from Richmond to Hartford City and on to Montpelier in Wells county. Mr. Bundy says wheat down this way is at least a week to 10 days earlier than that farther north, very little of which has yet begun to head. Says, too, that our corn looks better than that north of Winchester, as a rule; also that farmers are very generally rolling their corn fields to conserve moisture. "While it Is true," said he, "that no

serious harm has been done by drouth as yet, this is the time when a good, steady downpour would be worth a lot of money." Some of the old oil and gas leases are being renewed in Wells and Blackford counties ivnd there are new drilling operations in prospect.

That it is possible to disinfect the mouth, nose, and other body cavities with ultra-violet rays has been demonstrated by Japanese physicians.

GIANTS TRADE FLETCHER FOR DAVE BANCROFT NEW YORK. June 8. Official announcecmont was made here that David Bancroft, star shortstop of the Philadelphia National league team, had been traded, man for man. for Arthur Fletcher, captain of the New York Giants, and regular shortstop since 1911. When the Giants took the field in Brooklyn. Bancroft played short for the Giants, and batted second. Fletcher joined the New York club in 1909.

HAGERSTOWN BASEBALL MEN ARE ANXIOUS FOR SCRAP The Hagerstown baseball team, which won the championship of Wayne county last year, is again in the field. Communications have been received from W. F. Miacael, manager to the effect that games are wanted with the strongest reams in this vicinity. He writes that he has a better team in line than the one that trimmed Richmond last year. Those interested are to write or call Ihe Hagerstown Athletic Club, Hagerstown, Indiana.

J LOCAL MEETINGS SUBSCRIBE Three more local meetings have subscribed their quotas in the Forward movement campaign conducted by the Friends. Two of these were in New England and one was in Indiana.

WILL JACK BEAT CARPENTIER? ASK GUNBOAT SMITH

A new portrait of the Gunboat in street togs. Gunboat Smith, one of America's most interesting, if not formidable, scrappers, is firm in his belief that Jack Dempsey will hand Georges Carpentier a beating when they meet, Smith bases his dope on the showing of the two birds against him.

Heinie Groh. It may be there Is something in Heinie's idea that he has perfected the ideal bat. You know he had his picture "tooken" a while ago with his new bludgeon shaped like a whiskey bottle. Or it may be that Heinie is getting a better squint at the ball. Whatever it is, the dimiuntive Groh is one of the Cinci Reds triumvirate of mighty clouters that is helping them swing along at the top of the National free-for-all. Groh is hitting over .330, leading Jake Daubert and Pat Duncan, the other two members of the wrecking crew. All of which tickles the fans in Oshkosh, Decatur and Buffalo, as well as Cinci. But it doesn't tickle the Giant fans. McGraw had Heinie and let tiim go. Groh got his start in life in Rochester and his start in baseball with the Oshkosh team in the Wisconsin-Illinois league. He began playing ball in 190S. Three years later. May 11, 1911. he was sold to Decatur, and on July 20 that same year, was peddled to the Giants. McGraw sent him to Buffalo and then allowed the Reds to get him, sending him with Josh Devore and Ames to Cinci for Art Fromme. Groh played second a couple of seasons for Cinci, and then moved to third. He is rated as one of the greatest third basemen the game has known and Red fans call him the greatest. He has batted over .300 the last three campaigns and is a wonder on defense.
