BIG LEMI PLBYEHS
111 MINHIGIB®
NEW YORK, Feb s.—ls the present
epidemic of trades and cash deals con
tinues in the major leagues it will be
■ecessary to supply the baseball fan
with a card index of the players when
the 1918 season opens During no
similar period of time in the history of
the National and American leagues
has the number of player shifts equal
led those consummated since the close
of last year's pennant races Not only
in the number of players exchanged
but in the magnitude of the deals have
new records been established. Close
to forty players and more than $150,-
•00 in cash is the aggregate involved
and if the magnates’ statements are
correct other similar transactions are
still to be completed.
In the American League four deals
involving twenty players and sums
approaching close to the SIOO,OOO mark,
have been made to date, with an av
erage of five players to a deal. The
Rational League clubs have figured in
an equal number of trades, but the
average number of players concerned
is not so high. Less cash, however,
was needed, as so far as is known
three of the five were made without
the passing of either currency or
checks.
From a numerical standpoint, the
deal between the New York and St.
Louis clubs of the American League
heads the list. Seven players are ex
pected to change uniforms as a result
of this transaction, in addition to a
sum of money, said to be about $15,000,
paid to St. Louis by the New York mag
nates. The Philadelphia Athletic-Bos
ton Red Sox tranfsers come next, six
players and about $60,000 being in
volved. This was immediately follow
ed by the Mclnnis deal, which is said
to include the exchange of three Bos
ton players for the Athletics first basfr
man. Should such be the case th® to
tal would include ten men in all, a
re ord deal in modern baseball an
nals.
In the National League, the Brook
lyn-Pittsburg transfer is the biggest as
the Pirates gave three Pittsburg play
ers for two Superbas.
Four players were involved in the
Philadelphia-Chicago trade whereby
the Cubs secured Alexander and Kille
fer for Dilhoefer and Prendergast and
a sum of money reported to be at least
$50,000. The Chicago-Boston and the
New York-Boston trades were inter
locking, as Larry Doyle went from Chi
cago to Boston, and in turn was pass
ed on to New York by the Braves.

SOLD THEIR PLACES
IN FAMOUS RAINBOW
DIVISION TO SPIES
CAMP SHERMAN, 0., February 5.
That two German spies may be among
. the numbers of the Rainbow Division,
which arrived in France some time
ago, commanding officers here believe
after today’s confession of Private
William A. Gourley, and Fred H. Huf
ford, of Marietta, arrested recently as
deserters from the Rainbow Division
Gourley and Hufford said they sold
1 their places in the division to “twc
men who seemed anxious to fight and
declared they had been turned down
by army officials as unfit for service.’
After Gourley and Hufford were ar
» rested cablegrams were received fron
General Pershing’s headquarters thai
■ both men were in the Rainbow Di
vision in rance, and that the men
arrested at Marietta are imposters
apparently.
Military officials here, however, de
cided to make a thorough investiga
tion and the two privates were
brought here for examination.
Today they were grilled by Col. S.
V. Ham, commanding the 158 the depot
brigade, with the result they con
fessed. Full details of the confession
were not made public, but it is stated
that from information at hand it is
believed that the young soldiers sold
their places in the Rainbow Division
to two German spies.

SHIPBUILDING PUNT
CREATESJEW TOWN
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Feb. 5.
Virtually every state in the union and
many distant parts of the world are
represented among the thousands of
shipworkers and their families who
are hastening to this city to settle in
the new community established in the
Fortieth ward by employees of a large
shipbuilding corporation which has
established a plant at Hog Island. The
influx, which began with the estab
lishment of the plant a short time
ago, will add, according to local of
ficials, from 25,000 to 30,000 person to
Philadelphia’s population.
Before the establishment of the Hog
Island plant, thousands of workmen
attracted to the Delaware river ship
building yards had utilized all the
housing facilities in the district. This
made it necessary for the city to co
operate with the government in plan
ning for the reception of the new
army which Philadelphia is called
upon to accomodate.
More than 10,000 workers will be re
qvired to erect the houses in the com
munity which will in .the future be
the homes of the new arrivals. It is
estimated, according to surveys made
at the instance of the city, that from
5,000 to 7,000 dwelling will be neces
sary. The cost will exceed $10,000,000
including wages.
Another fortune will be required
for the construction of sewers, water
facilities and other sanitary arrange
ments in this new section. Streets
will be laid, miles of water pipes will
he installed and all the heating, light
ing and transportation accomodations
of a modern city.
This working program is to be
hastened with all possible speed so
that workmen who could be used on
the scores of ships contracted for by
the government in Delaware river
yards will be released without delay.
The city is still working on the
problem of police and fire protection
for the “Hog sland” colony along with
other details which cannot be arrang
ed until the homes are built.

Cincinnati Authority Tells .How .to
Dry Up A Ccrn So It
Lifts Out.
You corn-pestered men and women j
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes >
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few ’
drops of frcezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn stops Soreness at
once and soon the corn loosens so it
can be lifted out, root and all, with- j
cut pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freezone j
costs very little at any drug store, but ■
is sufficietn to take off every hard
or soft corn or callus. This should be
tried, as it is inexpensive, and is said
not to inflame or even irritate the

NEW FOOD CAROS FOR
HOMESJO_BE ISSUED
WASHINGTON, February s.—Thir
teen million homes which signed the
original Hoover food conservation
pledge will receive the new 1918 fodd
cards within a few days. In addition,
every effort is to be made to get the
cards into the homes which were not
reached or which refused to sign in
the original campaign.
One of the indications of the ear
nest nature of the food campaign is
the request on the card, report to the
nearest food administration officer
the name and address of any .persoh
discouraging the production or saving
of food.”
The card asks that fruits, potatoes,
and vegetables be eaten abundantly
and that every househoulder raise and
preserve them as much as possible.
“Do not limit the food of growing
children,’’ is one of the command
ments. Warning against hoarding as
an aid to the enemy and peril to the
ration is given to the housewife. The
gospel of the clean plate is preached
also.

RAISE BEEF CATTLE
THE FARMERS’ PATRIOTIC DUTY
Our country needs our help now—our Government is begging
us to conserve what we have—to produce more food stuffs —to pro
duce more beef and better beef.
More beef and better beef; twice as much beef and thrice as .
good beef can be produced with a little more attention and practi
cally no increase in cost by crossing native cows with a good Here
ford Bull.
The Hereford is not the only recognized breed of beef cattle—
it is the best breed of beef cattle.
A prominent South Georgia Farmer recently sold two pens of
cattle—one native steers 3 years old, the other half-breed Hereford *
.yearlings. The half-breed Hereford yearlings averaged more than
200 pounds higher in weight and brought over 3 cents a pound more
in price.
On the great beef producing ranges of the West there are five
Hereford bulls in use to one of all the other recognized beef breeds
of cattle combined. Don’t you believe these great breeders and
producers know what they are doing?
Herefords are the best breed of beef cattle known and are
better adapted to conditions as they exist today in the Carolinas,
Georgia, Florida and Alabama, than any other breed.
