Ty Cobb on Dusting Off and Fighting Back at the Plate
In an interview, Ty Cobb explains how pitchers tried to intimidate him by close pitches. He details his counter move of strategic bunting and aggressive base running to neutralize the pitcher’s edge. He argues it is fair to test the other fielder’s nerve and insists on using the same weapons to gain advantage.

Results of Swine Tests in Iowa Feed Trials
Iowa hog feeders learned from 600 pigs in 12 experiments that certain rations and practices boosted profits. Heated waterers added about 1.70 per pig. sunshine raised gains and reduced costs, while dehulling oats did not pay. A balanced mix of 50 lb tankage 25 lb oilmeal and 25 lb alfalfa meal yielded best results though less alfalfa later helped. Crossbred Poland China and Duroc Jersey pigs grew larger and earned about 2 more per head than purebreds under identical feeding.
