7). Baseball Prospects.;
With f.only two men from last
year’s Varsity baseball team not in
college, the prospects for a winning
team this spring look brighter than
ever before.
With Captain Vogt behind the
plate, the receiving end could not
be better handled. Then with
Robinson, Elliffe, Bachman, Web
er and Blythe, the infield
is the same as last year with
the exception of second base, and
both Elliffe and Bachman played
with the team in 1914. The out
field seems also to be intact for
Crawford and Josetson will likely
be at • their old positions, leaving
Kern T 5, Kominars T 6 and prob
ably some new material to fight for
the extra position
The pitching department is what
is pleasing State rooters the most.
Hesselbachei should be a hundred
per cent better than last year, ow
ing to his summer's experience with
Connie Mack of the Athletics. Then
there is Siebert, who has twirled
two years for the varsity, and Ward
well, if eligible, who is also a vet
eran. Baughman 'l6, who made
the southern trips last year, should
be heard from and the fieshmen
class have several of their number
heralded as pitchers. Walter Man
ning is again to be the coach, and
with him and Captain Vogt at the
helm, Penn State should have a
winning 1915 ball team.
The schedule which follows is
much the same as last year’s. Penn
and Lehigh have been dropped and
W. and J. added as an additional
home game. There is a possibility
of a two game series with Ursinus
here, one game Friday and one
Saturday as per schedule. A date
is also pending with Juniata at
Huntington

Wrestling Schedule Completed.
The Wrestling schedule has been
completed for the coming season,
and includes six meets : February
1, Boston Tech at State College;
February 6, Navy at Annapolis;
February 13, Penn at State College;
February 22, Lehigh at Bethlehem;
February 27, Columbia at State
College; March 5, Pittsburgh at
State College.
Of the new teams Boston Tech is
the first and this event marks the
opening of athletic relationship
wit h the same institution. They
promise a very good meet and are
counting on adding to their list of
victories, Penn State. Columbia
renews her relationship after a
break of three years.
Captain Lamb's team will be
pitted against three intercollegiate
teams, and the Navy, so the out
come of the season should give fol
lowers of the sport an idea as to
the strength of Penn State’s wrest
ling compared with the intercollegi
ate teams. The inability of Indiana
to visit here this year is much
regretted, since their appearance for
two years had created such a favor
able impression of the western type
and style of wrestling.

MORE POTASH COMING
American crops and soils are still as
hungry for Potash as before the out
break of the European War, which cur
tailed the Potash shipments.
Some of the Fertilizer Companies are
trying to induce farmers to buy the one
ion* P-jt.iph or noPotashh'rtWzers
of a generation ago. This means a fer
tilizer that is profitable to the manufac
turer, but not the best for the farmer.
When the Syndicate in 1910 started the
direct sale of Potash to dealers and
fanners at reasonable priees, Potash
sales increase 65 per cent, in one year,
a clear proof that farmers know that
Potash pays. They know that Potash
gives good yields, good quality and re
sistance to plant diseases.
Many of the Fertilizer Manufacturers
are willing to meet the farmers’ wishes
and sell him what he thinks he needs.
These manufactures are now willing to
furnish as much Potash as they can se
cure. They offer goods with 5 per cent,
and even in some cases 10 per cent.
Potash, if the farmers insist on it.
Shipping conditions are improving,
more Potash is coming forward although
the cost of production and transporta
tion arc higher. The higher price of fer
tilizers is not due wholly to the slightly
higher cost of Potash. Much of the
Potash that will be used in next spring’s
fertilizer had reached America before
the war started.
There is no substitute lor Potash
We can no more return to the fertili
zer of twenty years ago than we can re
turn to the inefficient farm implements
or unprofitable livestock of that period,
