is followed the ball should not be held
gquare,y ON the end but leaning forward at
IN angle of about sixty or seventy degrees.
This angle seems the easiest for holding
the ball steadily with one hand and the
same time a comparatively slight pressure
backward will send tho ball with consider
able speed.
~Shrewdness and trickery can best be met
by s~hrewdness and trickery, and the ideal
center rusher is the possessor of both. He
must know how to keep FROM being sue
cessrully bothered when he has the ball and
at the same time be skillful in bothering an
opponent when it i. in the hands of that
individual.
The main work of the guards may be
summed up as blocking, that is in guard
ing" as their name indicates, the quarter
back Until he has passed tho ball; making
openings for the passage of a runner when
ever certain signals ere given; breaking
through the line to interfere with the quar-
ter-back in passing the ball or to tackle the
runner or to stop a kick. The guards, with
the center rusher, have the most laborious
positions on tho eleven if they fulfill their
duties.

ponents. who usually miss on that play,
while at the same time they struggle to

expected to use their strength and wits IN
blocking and making openings and in in
terferinp for the player who is attempting
a run. Further, they have little time to
catch their wind when 4 play is being made
around the end for almost the first point
which is pounded into their brains by the
daily criticism of the captain or coach is
always to be on hand the second the ball
is down to make or to prevent n quick
play. 1t can truly be said that no team is
we'll trained until the confer part of the
eleven. as indeed the whole team, ia timely
on this point. While the center has all
this hard work only occasionally do the
players have a chance to distinguish them
selves either by a run or a clear tackle or
a fine interference which is apparent to the
unframed eye of the spectator. On the
other hand it does not take very much
yielding at the center to bring forth the
criticism from the audience that the center

ter rusher the one physical property sought
for besides weight and strength, is the abil-
ity to stand firmly On his feet and 80 be
able to snap the ball accurately and at a
uniform rate of spsed. A little unsteadi-
ness under the annoyance of a tricky oppo-
nent will cause the quarter back n deal of
trouble in handling the ball, and be very
likely to result in some very bad
fumbling. There are two methods of stand
ing in swapping the ball, one introduced by
Princeton a few years ago, where one foot
10 placed behind for a brace and the ball
is snapped back a little to one side; the.
other used almost entirely by Yale. where
both feet are widely spread for interference
with opponents breaking through, and at
the same time to avoid getting in the way
of the ball, which can be snapped straight
back.
A wise center rusher will also make a
study OF the best way of swapping the ball
back and then hold the ball the same way
every time. Yale holds the ball on the
small end in %snappln9 it back because she
thinks that an opponent will nave less
opportunity for interfering with the ball
which can be sent back very fast almost
without effort and in such a way that the
quarter back catches the ball in the air

EE AN on the history and
development of the
game, but it will be of more practical value,
both to those who witness contests and to
those who arc learning to play, to conine
these papers to the points of play. We will
now seek to get a picture Of the play before
as.
Let US imagine that the field is properly
laid out according to the rules of the game;
that we have a rectangular piece of level
land $50 feet long by 100 feet wide, inclosed
by heavy lime lines; that at distances of
five yards lengthwise of this field are other
well-defned parallel lines, the fifth from
either end being indicated by a special
mark as the "twenty-ive'-yard line,
and the middle point of the eleventh line
as the ~''center'' of the field; that midway
on the boundary lines of the short side of
the field goal posts are erected. with stand
ards twenty feet high and eighteen feet six
inches from each other, connected ten feet
from the ground by a crossbar.
We are now ready to consider the play

a side, the same as in the English game Of
cricket. Seven of these, called the rush
ers'' or forwards" stand opposing a CORE
spending seven of the opposite eleven when
ever the ball is "duwn for a scrimmage."
Tho other foul occupy positions varying
according to whether they or their oppo-
nents have this ball, and are called the
backs" The names OF each position and
the way the players would stand in a
scrimmage are given below.
Let ua now consider the makeup of an
eleven more closely. An eleven could very
probably be divided into four distinct
parts, each part composed of players who
have similar duties. The rush line. like an
army, is made up of a center and two wings.
Tho center is composed of the center
rusher, the right and left guard and the
quarter back. Each wing is made up Of a
tackle and an end rusher. The two half
backs and the full back, who formerly
was the goal-keeper, but who is now prac-
tically a third half back, made another
division.
Ihe center, like the center of an army.
also is the strength of the eleven, the back
bone of the team. If weak here an eleven
can not be strong either Extensively, when
they have the ball. or defensiyely, when
it is in possession of their opponents. For
this reason hardy, powerful men are al

very good position for passing. Tn latter
method seems to be used at the sacrifice of
speed and with greater liability for inter-
ference on the part of the opposing confer
rusher.

According To statistics eompiIedSby
Bserbohn aud Bradstreet's.s two emil
nent authorities, tile total stocks of
wheat, visible and invisible, in the
United Kingdom and the United
States, the stocks afioat for Europe,
those in the principle French and Ger
man ports and at Odessa, on April
last, amounted to but I7s, ,656, GOO
bushels, against equivalent stocks on
the corresponding dates in 1890 and
1889 of 2I8. $50, 600 and 192, 392 900
bushels respectively. Ninety-eight
millions of bushels of this first total
will be required for United States
home consumption and export during
the period ending June 80, 1891. An
article upon the subject Ia the current
issue of Bradstreets is summed with
.'the general conclusion that at the
present rate of export we are to go
over into the next cereal year July u
with rs small reserves as we had in
1882. -
July I, 1882, the visible supply of
grain i'll the United States was TO-,
OF 900 bushels. It has not since that
| time bee as low. Monday cash
wheat in Chicago closed at a higher
price than it had attained since Au-
gust, 1882, the period of the corner Of
the autumn of 1SsS excepted. The
latter half of 1881 and the first eight
months Of 1882 comprised time of
high wheat prices. The crop of the
former year was only 3S3 900, 600 and
the corn crop bl;t 1 200, 900, 600 bush
els. The visible supply as, before not
ed, hads declined to less than eleven
millions by the end Of the crop year of
1851 During that period the range
of values for cash wheat was from
81 O94 to $1.434. There were but two
of the twelve months from JHly /,
1881, to July /, 1882, in which cash
wheat did not sell higher than S1.3O
There was no month III which it did
not sell higher than $1.2O.
In 1890 we harvested ninety millions
less wheat than i'll 1889. The Euro
pean crop outlook for 1891 is almost
| universally dismal. Instead of three
: hundred millions of FraFnee and thu
two hundred millions of Russia it il
= doubtful if the aggregate yield of botl
countries exceeds the average of Frame
alone. Germany's usual hundred
millions will fall far short of that sum
Hungary enjoys only a fair prospect

THIS membrane is Of the most marvel
Ously delicate character, being OF such

the blood of the smoker is literally

Sc readily does the system receive
