O'Day was a pitcher when Kllroy
was a star, and as Matt is one of
Philadelphia's leading licensed vict
oaiers, we will reproduce the inter
view with O'Day as set down by Bill
Phelon.-
"Believe me," says Hank O'Day, "If
I could add a Kilroy to my pitching
staff I'd ask no odds from anybody.
There was a left hander who could
pitch intelligently, trap runners on the
bases. and do his share of the batting.
The modern left banders most of
them are fancy specialists, who bave
little real class or value. A great
many-of the old time pitchers were
also ball players, able to take care of
themselves in almost any position,
fine batters, clever thinkers. Nowa
days a pitcher thinks all he should
ever be called upon to do Is pitch.
And yet despite all this specialization
stuff you can't get satisfactory pitch
ers. Look at the crowd of youngsters
we took south this spring. Fine minor
league pitchers, all of them. That
was all just good minor leaguers.
Where are they now? When they
were tried against the big league bats
linen, who insist that a ball shall be
over, they faded away. The pitchers
we have left are shy on control, and
that has been losing ns games. I
think Suggs and Fromme are as good
us any pitchers in the business, but
the latter has been giving too many
bases on balls."

floats on the sea is termed flotsam. It
Is jetsam when the ship is in danger
of being sunk, and to lighten her the

Society were given a picnic Saturday

TRUCK CROPS PROFITABLE.
It is doubtful if any other branch
of farming pays so well as trucking.
By this I do not mean market gard
ening on a small scale where 'ffle
amount of land under cultivation is
only a few acres, says Daniel T. Hen
dricson in Farm and Home, but where
certain vegetable crops are grown on
a somewhat large scale, and where
the size of the farm runs from 30 to
100 acres. Truck farming, too, can
be carried on at a distance as great
as 100 miles from the markets if the
railroad facilities are good so that
the produce shipped by freight in the
evening may reach the market early
next morning.

Council '
xThe City Councilmen of Missoula,
Mont, after having been backed by a
large percentage of the property own
ers, awarded the contract for paving
Gerald Avenue, the main street of the
city, with Bitulithic Pavement.
The contract was awarded after a
thorough investigation of all kinds of
street pavement, and Bitulithic was
chosen because of its well-known good
qualities, as it has stood for many
years the hardest of time and traffic
tests under all conditions and in all
climates.
The city officials are pleased to see
that their choice of pavement meets
the approval of both the property
owners and the citizens of Missoula.
