[CLASSIFIED UNWELCOME RAINS | |{ "New York Stocks HELP WHEAT RISE Speculators Concerned Over Excessive Moisture in Southern States Chicago, May 13—(7)—With the United States wheat visible supply showing a big decrease, 4,231,000 bushels, in the last week, wheat values here developed considerable strength today. Liverpool wheat quotations higher than expected tended also to lift the Chicago mar- ket, and so likewise did predictions current that the June official fore- 4 cast from Washington will show a decided curtailment of wheat yields. Notice was also taken that the In- terstate Commerce Commission has approved of reductions in export rates on wheat and grain by eastern and western rail lines. ‘Wheat closed unsettled, ic to 1c net higher (May 1.0412, July 1.08% to 13 to Sept. 1.12% to 14, Dec. 1.1745 n unchanged to “c up (May to %, Sept. 89% to 90, July 44%, Sept. 42 Dec. 45). And provisions unchanged to a rise of 5 to Tc. A Soaking rains in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, attracted a good deal of notice among wheat traders today as coming after previous complaints of excessive moisture. Numerous Okla- homa points reported downpours of -~ four to five inches since Saturday. The market effect here was in favor of the buying side. Helping to lift wheat values today were reports of European purchases overnight that included No. 2 hard wheat from the United States. These purchases were announced as having been made on a basis of 2%:c pre- mium for June shipment in anticipa- tion of freight rate reductions. Mean- while, wheat afloat for Europe totaled but 53,776,000 bushels, compared with 55,160,000 bushels a week ago and 6",264,000 bushels, at this time last ar. Advances in the corn market today were associated with reports indicat- ed that the corn planting season in some of the principal sections of the corn belt is now about two weeks late, ~ with only a quarter to a third of the acreage yet planted. Crop authorities were quoted also as saying further- more that it is a question what kind of a stand the early planting will make. Wet weather. over. the corn belt, with a forecast for showers, led to buying of corn and a higher level of values. Liquidation was on in May oats, with support lacking early, but the market firmed up later.

Murphy severed diplomatic relations at the close of the campaign, Stallings induced Gaff- ney to take over the Trojan’s con- tract. Evers, it was thought, would round out the Braves, but for the first half of the 1914 campaign the club floundered about the second division, its natural place, the experts said. By July, the Braves were back at their old station, last place. Then they started a spurt. It con- tinued into a 10 weeks’ baseball marathon, during which the Braves passed all other entries, shattered the | FC hopes of the Giants for four straight and closed the season in front with ® margin of ten games. The Braves’ | FO) four straight victories over the Athlet- ics in the world’s series marked the first time the series had been fined to that number of games. Was Georgia Manager Stallings was a product of a Georgia farm, where he was born in 1866. It was there he unconscieus- ly developed his throwing arm and gained control by hurling stones at the stumps of trees. He learned the rudiments of the game at Richmond cone Academy, Augusta, Ga., and from the | 6; academy team went to his first pro- fessional baseball job with the Oak- land Club of the Pacific Coast League as catcher. Later he became a play- er and manager in the old Eastern League, predecessor of the Interna- tional League. In the latter he had been owner-manager of two clubs, Rochester and Montreal. When a young man Stallings mar- ried Miss Belle White of Haddock, Ga., who later obtained a divorce. They had two sons. His wife of a second marriage died and some years later he married the widow of Bud Sharp, a minor league first baseman and close friend, who had been a scout for Stallings’ ball clubs many years. One son was born of the third union. The Stallings system, by which the Boston Braves won the world’s cham- pionship in 1914, proved one theory of modern baseball and disproved another. The former was that right hand batters are more successful against left hand pitchers and vice versa. The theory disprove:] was that it was necessary to have a large pitching staff to win a pennant. Had Two Outfields In order to carry out the idea of batting, Stallings carried two come plete outfields, using the trio that batted right hand when southpaw pitchers opposed the Braves, and the pe handed nie outfielders against + hand pitchers. ee Stallings’ theory that pitches could oe Sets, Vane. in the box after two days’ rest was out when he used Dick Rudolph and Bill James, right handers and Lefty Tyler, southpaw, in’regular turn dur- ing the last half of the National League season and through Reming. ith the Braves until ing Ww! g 1920, Stallings announced his retire- he and Walter” Hapgood. purchased he ang 1y the Rochester club of the Interna- tional League, which Stallings man- aged until after the 1927 season. He again announced his retirement, only to return when an opportunit presented itself to get control of the Montreal club. He remained at the head of the club until the middle of the 1928 season, when forced his retirement and he Led removed to a hospital at Macon, Ga. In addition to baseball, which had been his principal business activity, so many years, Stallings maintained a large'plantation near Haddock, Ge.. which he owned upwards of 30 years. He operated it mainly as a ability by a During his long connection with baseball, Stallings was credited with the development of many players who became stars in the major leagues.

NATIONAL CASH REG! New and second more than 2,000,000 acres were sold | 5 in North Dakota curing 1927 and 1928. We see no reason why this volume of sales should not continue but a great- er volume is possible. Purchasers are available within North Dakota and as the general agricultural situation improves in the midwest states, a healthy movement of new settlers may be expected. But local tenants, and a large majority of potential new settlers, are limited to a small down Payment and s:ek an opportunity to liquidate the balance over a period of years by a better form of contract than has generally been offered.
