This is a story of the only man In" organised baseball who swings a bat 'as heavy as Babe Ruth's and eats 6 worth of food a day In a country where fifty cents will feed a stevedore. Our hero, Floyd Herman, was born of poor but honest parents artd at an early age set out to make his way Jn the world with a baseball bat in his hands and a chronic yearn for food In the region of his abdmcn.v In due time he arrived In Edmon ton, Canada, where ho achieved some notoriety because of the fact that his , I bat weighed fifty-six ounces; thus sharing with Ruth's big stick the dis tinction of. being the heaviest in base ball. TheyVame to call him "Babe" larkcly because he was so different.

So great was our hero's gastronomic ability that the club ow:jer called for a new deal, requiring that the young man hit over .300 for the season be fore his transportation to Glendale, Cat., would be advanced. All went well for a time. With less than five jveeks to go, Herman, was hitting .3B6 In the league averages and .999 in the dining room. Then the slump.

Early faU plow ing is what keeps these farms free of weeds. . "That's easy to talk about,. hut how are you going to plow when the ground is so hard and dry, and the weather so hot that a team can't work?' That, probably is your objection to the formula. . ; . , - "Use a Fordson-Oliver Plowing Outfit," is the answer. Heat and hard soil and dry weather don't bother a bit when you use Fordson power instead of horses. Early fall plowing with a Fordson tractor and an Oliver No. 7 plw will enable you to turn over the soil the ime you know it will do the most good.
