In the ninth a base on baHs, three bagger and a sacrifice produced two more runs, which was all so tar as Spring Grove was concerned. McHenry scored five runs in the first inning on tiro walks, three errors and a home ran. Six more runs were registered in the second on three doubles, a triple and three errors. One run came in in the third on two walks, an error and a man being hit by a pitched ball. The next tally came in the fifth and was productive of an error and a three bagger by Warner. Three errors and two hits produced two more runs in the sixth, while a walk and two hits counted another run in the seventh. The last and final round proved the big show of the afternoon, when McHenry registered twelve runs. There were so many errors in this inning that the score keeper just, tired of keeping a record of same and called it an even dozen. The tabulated score follows: Spring Grove R H P A.

The McHenry boys are jvery much dissatisfied with the deal they were given by the Woodstock umpire, but even had the decisions all been in their favor it is very doubtful if McHenry could have won ; Woodstock played the better ball game .and is entitled to the victory. Mc- ; Henry, as on previous occasions, performed miserably on the bases and .with such performances as these they cannot expect to win from any team j that is anywhere near a match for .them. While the locals are showing ' considerable improvement in their I defense as well as batting, their big weakness seems to be in the work on the foot paths, which, in most in J stances, is due to lack of knowledge of the national game. However, our boys are willing workers and should ! overcome these faults before the beginning of another baseball season. RULES . 'THURSDAY.

YOIT a Savings Account m this tnmk aad let tfi - help you to carry out your plans? ^ ' -i-Wc. r>, ^ The McHenry County Soil Improvement association is making a detailed survey or census pf the livestock activities of the county. A similar survey is to be made by the Illinois Agricultural association in all of the organized counties of the state under the direction of Prof. Mumford, director of the livestock marketing department of the Illinois Agricultural association, and Lee DeVine, his assistant. The information collected will be used by the state association and the local farm bureau as a basis of more intelligent and advantageous marketing of both market and pure bred livestock. Stock raisers in the past have been greatly handicapped by not knowing as much about the supply of fat cattle, sheep and hogs as other interests and their marketing has been more or less leap in the dark." The state association hopes to work out in co-oper ation with the state associations of other corn belt states a system of livestock reporting that will keep mem bers of these associations informed as to the supplies of cattle, sheep and hogs on feed and approximate date of marketing, together with the normal demand, with a view of preventing glutting the market and causing disastrous breaks and radical fluctuations. It will take considerable" time to work out these plans and the present survey is to lay the foundation for future work. It is of the utmost importance that the Farm Bureau and the state association receive the active and prompt co-operation of the farmers of the state and at this time of McHenry county. Mr. Gafke, county farm advisor, and his livestock associate, Mr. Carncross, are giving the survey their hearty support and assistance and they are especially anxious that the data for McHenry county should be as complete as possible, as they feel that the information secured will make it possible for them to bet ter serve the farmers of Mc^ienry £ s: NOT ONLY IN THE EAST but all over the country you'll find the women folks taking advatrtage ttf the downright comfort found in Eiffel Maid buttonless underwear.
