Johnny has admitted that sundry
newspaper stories, fur front flattening,
have pierced his skin like. a knife,
and he’s so afraid the unfavorable
write-ups will continue that he's going
to quit reading the newspapers. He's
afraid if he sees too many of them it
will \vorry him so much he'll neglect
his work, so he flgureg; the only way
out of it is to lay off the newspapers
Whether this may be taken its an
indication that Johnny expects things
will happen to invite criticism. or
whether he is merely taking the step

And one might stop to remark here
that, there's II wide difference be-

the Cub president couldn't stand any
more criticism than Johnny can, he'd
probably be a nervous wreck by this
time.
Johnny doesn’t wish it understood
that he's against newspapers for all

compliments as well as anyone in

No person is more sincere in their
daire to p notice than Martin J.. and
ills work tins spring indicates that he
will round into shape and be a big
help to the Pittsburgh club in its bat-
tle for baseball honors the coming aea~
son.
The sorrel-topped beaver is minus
two handicaps which he. had to con-
tend wiih last spring. .He is not
brought face to face every day with
the fact that the Pittsburgh club paid
It record—breaking price for his re-
lease ‘from the ISL Paul team, nor is
be bothered with the soreness in his
arm, which caused him so much trou-
ble last spring. 1
After the big price was paid for the
brick top. he was hippodromed over
the American association circuit for
further orders, and the Pittsburgh club
had to almost steal him before they
could land him in Pittsburgh, even af-
ter paying the price. {He was worked
in every city, the sale price proving
a big drawing card and the St. =Paul
team took down a handsome revenue
as a result.
But while the club was raking in
the shackles it was‘doing the. pitcher
an injury from which he is only just
recovering. The severe strain which
was placed upon hini"told. and his
arm went lame. He was practically
useless to the Pittsburgh club in the
fall of 1911, and last spring he was
still in the same condition.
Sweating and careful massaging
failed to bring the arm around and he
went into the fray under a big band-
icap. However, even with this draw-
back. he pitched good 1ball at times.
and many of the defects charged to
him were of the cloeeet character. He
was stacked up agelttst the greatest
pitchers in the league. but never coni-
phtiued. .
This year Marty is without any
soreness in his pitching wing. in fact.
he says he feels better than he has
done for several melons. He in tour-
rlctl and settled down now and, with
Mrs. dd. J. O'Toole presiding over his
training table in Pittsburgh, things
should be vastly different.
This curing Marty has taken the
beat of care of his arm, but in all the
work. he has not complained. There
was, of course. some uorenens when
he. that began working out, but this
same condition was experienced by all
the pitchern and continued exercise
that. The old chrome
soreness is noticeable by its alliance.

PUBLIC LAND cquFtcA'rIOIN.
State! Geological Survey to-
weu Report Deacrlbing Methods
of Procedure.
in the latter half of the nineteenth
century the spirit of the, public land
laws in the United States was settle
ment and development. With a public
domain of one and a third billion acres,
acquired in the preceding halt century
«1803-1853-451 purchase, discovery,
exploration, and cession, and with an-
other third of a billion acres in Alaska,
constituting a. later purchase, the ne-
. lion felt that it could be lavish with
its lands. true wilderness called for
pioneers of every you, and large pre-
miums were held out to capital enter-
prise and individual initiative. Devel-
opment was desired whatever the cost
in lands that were intrinsically of lite
lle value without settlement. ’But with
the most and the best of the nation's
land already alienated, the national
duty is now to put to its best use what:
remains.
,_ *Utiitzation of lands for their great-
est value necessitates the determina-
tion of that value, which is, briefly,
land classification; and, to be adequate
land classification must be based upon
lint-hand acquaintance with the par-
ticular land under consideration. With
a national estate including country
ranging from salt-inertial“ deserts to
valleys knee-deep with nutritious
grasses or giant forests almost impen-
etrable because of luquiant under-
growth, no general statutes that may
be enacted can be made so definite as
not to require the exercise of well-in-
formed ludslnent in their execution.
To this and examination and classifi-
cation of the public lands constitute
an initial step in their disposition for
development and settlement.
To insure appropriate disposition
and to secure highest use, of the na-
tion‘ a lands. scientific land classifier» ,
lion .by the United States Geological‘
Survey baa been made an integral part
of the public-land administration. The
purpose of land classification is bish-
eat utilization. and to attain this end
it has been necessary to coordinate
the work of scientific investigation
,with the administrative functions of
the Department of the interior. The
lame participation of the Geological
Survey in the public-land adminiltru-
lion has naturally pretreated problems
involving changes both in office and
viinld «sanitation and in executive and
scientific methods. For these changes
there has been little or no precedent.
Scientists and public men of older
countries have been outspoken in their
interest In this new capitation of act.

and requests have been made for more
detailed information on the cabinet
than in available in the references ab-
pettrlux in administrative reports of
