Is the national pastime suffering from a temporary. dearth of ma- terial due to a number of causes? It is the history of baseball that certain years are very prolific in producing real stars. Then there comes an era of sev- eral years when the baseball crop is only ordinary. It runs in cycles. the During the past month I have talked with a dozen major league uts, all of them discouraged and ted with the prospective ma- 1 offered by the minors. “The best ball players I have seen in action this summer are the old- timers, players who have either served in the majors or the better minor leagues.” So remarked a well-known major league scout, who for years has pi- loted big league clubs in beth the American and National. It is a rather interesting fact that a number of the leading stars of the American League made their debut about the same time. Most of these players will pass out together und their exit will be felt, Ty Cobb, one of the outstanding stars, is playing his twentieth se: son. He says it will ke his last as a regular, Tris Speaker, brilliant outfielder and manager of the Cleveland club, has played almost as long, He can- not go on forever. Eddie Collins, game’s greatest sec-| ond baseman, has been performing sensationally for 19 years. Walter Johnson, wonder pitcher, has been at it for 18 campaigns, 2 is having one of his best y However, he threatens to retire buy a minor league club. These four great players are just a few of the many veteran stars in the American League who haven't long to go. A similar condition ex- ists in the National. Stars are made from the recruits. American League scouts have sev- eral big jobs ahead to fill the places of these veteran stars who will soon pass out of the picture. Here are just a few of the rea- sons the scouts have advanced to me for the present dearth of avail- able big league material, Lack of playing space in the lar- ger cities, which prevents many youngsters from indulging in game. a 4 ‘The growing popularity of golf, which has weaned a certain per- centage of youngsters from game. Tennis has also retarded the velopment of baseball material, The attitude of many college couches, who advise against base- ball career, unless the player — is capable of ‘stepping into the big league and making good. de- Whatever the reason, major league scouts are unanimous in the opinion that the bushes have but little to offer in ‘the way of big [teague Voerey fn fp sete 1922 season, Sisler was stricken with | influenza in February, 1923, and his condition was aggravated by sinus trouble and tonsilitis, result- ing in impaired vision which caused Kis retirement from the game for the 192 season. For a time it was feared that his baseball days were over, but Sisler gave his eyes a care- ful, patient course of treatment and rest. With the opening of the 1924 sea- son Sisler assumed his regular posi- tion at first base in addition to managing the Browns. He admits that the defect in his vision has not been entirely remedied, but with his eyes constantly improving he is op- timistic that his sight will gradually return to normal, The defect,- he declares, hampers him in butting, but its effect upon his fielding is negligible. Although Sisler has been batting this season below his usual average he attributes this to periodical slumps which all ball players ex- perience. However, there have been comparatively few games in which he has gone hitless, 2 COURSES ARE CONSIDERED IN BOND MEASURE (Continued from page one.) case on questions raised in that of- fice when the petitions were refused the full text of the proposed measuré shall-be contained in the petitions. “In the view we take of the case, the action of the Secretary of, State was justified, and must be sustaihed, upon the ground that the petition does not contain the full text of the proposed amendment as required by article 26 of amendments, supra” said the court decision, written by Justice Johnson.

MANY FARMS IN STATE WITH N GARDENS FOUND Facilities for production of fcod for the home table are not utilized on many North Dakota farms, ac- cording to replies received to 2 ques- tionnaire sent out by the home dem- onstration department at the North Dakota Agricultural college. These replies show: One farm in 20 has no garden. One farm in 11 has no dairy cows. One farm in 8 has no poultry. One farm in 4 has no beef cattle. One farm in 4 has no hogs. Questionnaires were answered by 1,043 members of home-makers' clubs in the state. As these club members are from the more progressive farm families, it is believed that the re- turns from the questionnaire ind: cate a larger proportion of the farms producing food for home consumption than would be the case with the aver- age farm in the state. While 95 percent of the farm women declared that they had gar- dens, only 60 percent reported that the gardens supplied the family’s needs for vegetables during the en- tire year. All but two percent plan to have a garden next year and to raise enough vegetables to last the family during the entire year.

Women Who Value Beauty Care For Their em and Fight the Wrinkles By Heaky J, Schireson,, M.A. 9D. HE pees frame of @ wo- Man's beauty is the setting of her eyes. This setting can make or mar her. The eyes are woman's , most conipelling charm. Yet without a becoming trame—unwrinkled skin, well-kept tye brows and lovely eyelashes—~ the beauty of the eyes is lost.
