JOHN STOFFEL WEST McHENRY. ILL / season the McHenry Sox defeated the Dundee Peerless here 5 to 4 last Sun­ day afternoon. The game proved a real pitchers' battle, Sahlberg, ofv the home having a shade the better of his slab opponent, Doss. Sahlberg allowed the visitors but one hit, while the local outfit was able to touch up Doss on only two different occasions, both safeties, one a home run, being credit­ ed to Ryan. From the manner that the visitors started out it looked as if McHenry was in for an awful,trimming. Sahl­ berg was as wild as a hawk in the second and fourth innings and had it not been for his gilt-edged support, especially the clever work of "Com- my," the game would surely have been lost to the visitors. However, Sally gathered himself together and for four innings, the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth, he pitched as good a ball he has ever shown since coming to McHenry. His work in the eighth i particularly worthy of special mention, as he struck out the three men who faced him in this round. All told, Sally had twelve strike-outs to his credit and, considering that he i dishing 'em up to a slugging team, the record is not to be sniffed at. The game by innings: First inning: G. Schuring walked and went to third when" Ahlstrom fumbled Haverkamp's grounder and then threw badly to Henson, who ran rover the initial sack. Haverkamp stole second. J. Schuring skied to Bending in left, G. Schuring scoring Freeman skied to Wallace. Schu­ macher struck out. No hits, one McHenry: Wallace rolled out to Freeman at first. Comiskey was hit the back and took first. He stole second and went to third on Brails- ford's out, Moss to Freeman. "Com- my" kept right on going after round­ ing third and tricked Freeman in making the peg to the far corner, on which our fast third sacker scampered home. Bending out, Haverkamp to Freeman. No hits, one run. Second inning: Moss walked and went to second on Faber's single be­ tween third and short. Both rui advanced a notch on Bramer's out, Comiskey to Ahlstrom. Dojss filled the bags by. drawing a pass. G. Schuring struck out. Sahlberg forced a run by passing Havercamp. J. Schuring hit to Comiskey, who forced Faber at third. No hits, one run. McHenry: Seablom skied to G. Schuring in right. Ryan out, Faber freeman. Ahlstrom walked and stole second. Henson struck out. No hits, no rims.

Wallace was given life at first on Haverkamp's fumble. Wal­ lace stole second and then was caught off the bag by Bramer's quick and per­ fect peg. Comiskey struck out. No hits, no runs.

Comiskey made another sensational stop of Faber's hard drive, our third sacker gathering in the ball while on a dead run and then shot the pill to-first while still going at full speed. Clever work, "Jakey." Bra­ mer skied to Ahlstrom. No hits, no runs. McHenry: Ryan was hit by a pitched ball and was then caught off the bag. Ahlstrom struck out. Hen­ son skied to Schumacher.

WATCH THEM Crops Should Be Moved Time to Avoid Wa Reports have been coming in of the of crops "in the field," in ad­ vance of the harvest, to be delivered on the order of the buyer, or to be harvested by the buyer at his pleas­ ure. Past experience has shown our peo­ ple that in many instances these crops are never harvested. This is not over sight on th^part of the purchaser, as credulous persons might think. It is deliberate and with a purpose. The crops are bought with this possi­ ble end in view. Our food hogs are shrewd. Gov nment and state reports presage i record production of food crops this year. In the natural order of things this would be bound to lower prices to extent, even in the face of the heavy foreign demand, but this is just what the food speculator does not wish to see occur. To avoid it he must evolve some plan to "retire' greater or less proportion of the crop from the market. Hence they bought up "in the field," and, if our officials are not careful, many of " #hen you want to send money to distant points the mo& venient way to do it is to send a check. When you send a check by mail you insure yourself against loss, because if the check islo# payment on it can be topped at the, bank and a duplicate issued. You lose nothing. We offer you the be£ of facilities for handling your checking account We can give you prompt and efficient service. Your money is absolutely safe and sftill jusft as available as in your own pocket. We invite you to open a checking account with us, and assure you that we will give you the best of service. Come in and talk it over. If you once get the checking habit you will not want tp break it, but will be glad that you Parted it|Jr ; Will rot in the field. We believe that the great majority of our farmers are loyal to the core. We do not believe they will connive at practice that tends to bojb waste and extortion. Loyal farmers, it is up to you to see that the purchaser of provided you have sold any "in the field" moves these crops at the prop- In case they are not so moved, and loss or even waste is threatened, it is your sacred duty as loyal citizen to notify the author ities in charge of the food situation at Washington, and you should do this while there is yet time to save the crop. Our sons and brothers in France are going to need every ounce of our produce that we can send them. Let see that none of it goes to waste thru the "carelessness" .of speculators. . Game Next The McHenry Sox will play Dun­ dee a return game at Dundee next Sunday afternoon and it is expected that McHenry will send as large a delegation of fans to the down-river town as they had here last Sunday. The boys are looking for a good, hard game and with Sahlberg pitching the brand of ball that he displayed dur­ ing the last five innings last Sunday the Dundee bunch will have to go some to beat him* At any rate, the game is bound to be just as close and exciting as that of last Sunday. Go 'down and by your presence and aid of your voice help the boys to another victory. . OREGON & CALIFORNIA RAIL­ ROAD CO. GRANT LANDS. Legal fight over land at last ended.

Box Car Merchant Eliminate^ The box car jnerchant, wJ»o puns a freight car of produce into town and sells direct from the car to tfc® con" sumer, has been put out of business by the interstate commerce commis­ sion. The order is the result of a long fight by local, state, and national associations of retail merchants against this brand of unfair compe­ tition. The commission has ruled that freight cars at railroad stations may not be used to transact retail business. Floyd Eckert Gets Appointment „ Floyd E.
