Art Meyers, veteran player and manager of another era, says that Shamrock-Johnsburg game was one of the best he ever witnessed "Sonny" Miller again proved to be a handy man to have around as he tamed- the Tigers 2 to 1. Although we don't know the exact starting time of the game (about 2 o'clock), our official tinier reported that the last out Was made at 3:45. In tact the game want so smoothly that we lacked the usual •coring action to report on the gams. The Bhamrockfc travelled to Lake Zurich for a llibor Day game and won 5 to 2 with Paul Preund pitching a nice game. Paul allowed two runs in the first before his control settled down, then went on to show plenty of staff in the pinches. We didn't see the Lake Zurich Same, but scouts report that Tom Bolger played second base and was the player of the day. There was the twenty-third victory of the year for > the Shamrocks against five. Jeteatf. Nice record.".. ; Next- femtor : Mfe- Shamrocks travel to Johnsburg where an overflow crowd caft be expected. That was quite a crowd here last Sunday. Over the P.A. system it was announced that the teams split the gate 50-50.

Uncle Sam Says •' Quit Too Sooti *WfE OLDEST INHABITANT had ^ celebrated his hundredth birthday and the reporter of a local paper called on him for an interview. Having congratulated the f old fellow, the reporter asked a few questions. "To what do you attribute your longevity?" he inquired. The centenarian paused a moment and then, holding up „ his hand and ticking off the items on his fingers, began: "I never smoked, drank alcoholic liquors, or overate, and I always rise at six in the *morning." "But," protested the reporter, "I had an uncle who acted in that way yet he only lived to be eighty. How do you account for that?" "He didn't keep it up long enough," was the calm reply.

WIN 2 TO 1 FROM TIGERS ; "Sonny" Milli* - Pilches 5-Hiiler In Play-Off Game In one of the fastest .ball games on record, the McHenry Shamrocks beat the Johnsburg Tigers 2 to 1 here last Sunday in the first game of the McHenry County league play-offs. ? With Hugh Murphy sidelined, Manager Bill Bolger sent "Sonny" Miller to the Mound. Miller caine through in great form, allowing only fiv? hits and walking only one batter. . Willie Klapperich, hurled 7-hit ball for the Tigers and issued two passes. Each pitcher had three strike-outs, giving their defense a chance to do sqme work. Hiller Is Busy Dick Hiller, who had a busy afternoon handling eight chances on the ground balls in faultless style, caught Dick Conway's liner as the start of his full day's work. It was in the third inning that the Shamrocks put across their two runs. Bill Bolger led off and was safe at first on an error at third. Bud Meyers picked up the ball and tossed it back to the mound. At that moment Klapperich turned his back and the ball rolled across the foul line. Bolger moved to second on the miscue and advanced to third on Dick Conway's sacrifice. Miller singled, scoring Bolger. McCulla doubled close to the right field line, moving Miller to third. Miller scored on Gerry Larkin's grounder to Hiller. Slight threats cropped up in both batting orders as the game moved swiftly along, but the pitchers were tough in the pinches. Klapperich had his work cut out for him in the seventh when McCulla's hard drive bounded past Katz for two bases. G. Larkin beat out a hit. Klapperich then tossed out Harry Stilling and Richard Preund. Hiller picked up Paul Freund's grounder for the third out with no scoring. Art Jackson Triples Miller retired eight batters in a row before Art Jackson came to bat to start the eighth inning. Art picked out a pitch to his liking and smote a mighty three-bagger deep into left center. Art scored the Tigers' only run when Mc- Cracken threw high over first on Klapperich's grounder. Klapperich was waved to second on the overthrow where he remained while Miller took Hiller's attempted bunt on the fly. McCracken threw out Si Meyers and Klapperich moved to third. Howie Freund walked. Miller then pulled out of the jam by fanning George Jackson. Game Notes The game was one of the snappiest performances of the season. Good fielding showed up throughout the game as both teams fought hard for an edge. Richmond nine to Algonquin last Sunday and won a decisive 7 to 1 victory.

In . a highly publicized, do-ordle ball game, the Johnsburg Tigers set down Dundee last Saturday afternoon J to 4 on the Johnsburg diamond before a large crowd; The game was necessitated because of a fourth place tie in the final standings of the county league. The right to enter the playoffs went to the winner. Dundee s^nt forth their ace hurler, Jim Schuldt, who had shut out the Tigers the previous Sunday. Manager Ted Pitzen, faced with making an important decision, handed the pitching job lo George Jackson. George, who seems capable of adjusting himself to any position, came through like an old pro. Carefully pitching to the corners, he allowed only four hits up to the ninth when a Dundee uprising netted four runs. However, two of those runs scored after an error on a grounder that should have retired the side.

In each case the west coast output is but a small fraction of the world harvest, in which Mediterranean .countries lead. with a pitch that hit the home plate and bounced to the screen. Richard "Tony" Freund was quick as a cat in retrieving the ball and firing to Jackson for the put-out. Johnsburg threatened in the third, but Schuldt pitched himself out of a mess. Art Jackson singled und went to third on Dick Hiller's scorching double along the third base line. With only one man out, Schuldt took care of the situation nnd kept them from scoring. Dundee Defense Cracks Dundee defense fell apart in the fourth when four errors combined with three hits to give the Tigers four runs. Action flared up in the seventh on both sides. For Dundee, Broderdorf walked and was forced at Second by Grotemeyer. George Jackson picked up a grounder by Knabusch and elected to make a play at second base.

SPRINGFIELD -- Aerial flares now strengthen the lengthening arm of the Illinois Conservation department's law enforcement branch. •'Operation Nighthawk," a night maneuver during the conrse of a 1000-mile river sweep, introduced the use of 30,000 candlepower parachute flares, fired from v5 millimeter guns. Sam Carney, Jr., chief inspec- 4or, coordinated investigators in "autos and boats by two-way radio during the 28-day sweep. A plane observer was used during the night maneuver for the first time. Investigators made 88 arrests and obtained 85 convictions. Approximately 344 items of commercial fishing gear were confiscated either because of illegal construction or because they lacked license tags. The equipment was valued at about 15,000. Legally constructed equipment which was not marked with license tags will be auctioned at a date to be announced. Illegally constructed equipment will be re* tained by the department. Tulio Verna, Illinois state police weapons instructor, fired the 35 millimeter guns during the man« euver and demonstrated them to investigators who will use them in the future. i t A 'rf rt-3 i •>itj •nil Fr left-center field.

Schuberg .batted for Bruhn and drove in both runners with a long triple to fear into the Tigers as they stood up and took their outs. Dundee's ragged defense was too much for Schuldt to overcome.

Are the symptoms the same as in cattle? Hogs do become infected with this disease, although the symptom of abortion is not nearly as prevalent in hogs. A sow may have the disease and not abort. The prevalence of swollen joints and lameness is an important symptom in infected swine herds. The herd boar, unlike the bull, is an important carrier and spreader of Brucellosis, and one infected boar may cause the entire sow herd to become infected. Another contrast is that cattle do not usually become infected until at least six months oi age, while swine may become infected shortly after birth. 2. I have quite a large number of young cockerels that I wish tc market as broilers. What is the best way to finish them out? Use a broiler feed until the bird* are marketed.

When fed on a dry feeding pro- Sram, records at the Ralston Purina ompany's Research Farm show that calves raised on a dry feeding program consistently averaged from 25 to 50 lbs. heavier at four months of age than calves raised on a whole milk program at good college anc> private dairy farms, according tc weights reported in Missouri Bulletin 336.

The drop in value reflects a smaller fish catch and lower prices. The fish catch was valued at $2,600,000 in 1948, $2;800,000 in 1947 and $3,. 900,000 in 1946.
