FOOTBALL is to be under the ban OF
the Harvard authorities this year II
President Eliot's recommendations
are adopted. DR.. Eliot declares that
the risks Of the game are inordinate
and excessive; that 1t blunts the
sensibilities both Of the players and
of the habitual spectators, and that
as played during the last five years
it is the least useful of the games as
a promoter of open air physical ex-
ercise for grown men, for the reason
that this rough and intense game is
out of the question for the great ma
jority of students. He recommends
that no football shall be played until
the rules are so amended as to dinin-
ish the numbers and violence OF the
collisions between the players and to
provide for the enforcement of the
rules. If his suggestion is adopted
there will be no football at all in
Harvard. The game has degenerated
into contest Of brute strength, and to
rob it of the slugging features would
be to render it vapid and unlnterest-
ing to its devotees.

If the Cinnamon OF Chicago are
actually In search Of saving grace
they can get it just as well through
the medium of elderly gentlemen
with bald heads and spectacles as
through the ministrations OF good
looking young women. The Anti
Chinese Sunday School Society, whose
object is to evangelize the Chinese
without bringing them In contact
with young women, is commendable
organization. If its recommends
tions are carried out it will soon be
made apparent how many Celestials
attend Sunday school through relig-
ious motives and how many go to
ogle the good-looking misses who
have made the conversion OF the al
mond-eyed heather fashionable fad.
The result may be discouraging to en-
thusiastic workers in the vineyard,
but it will be good thing for the
young lady teachers. AS for the
Cinnamon, they can solace themselves
with "hop" and fan-tan.

Prof Thomas Shaw of Minnesota,
writes In Live Stock Report about
the difficulties in getting clover
catches on new land In the North
west He attributes the fact to po-
rosity OF new soil, which causes dry
ing winds to penetrate it and take
away its moisture. In the dry re-
gions beyond the great lakes this
may possibly be the effect but else
where we have found that a soil
which is porous at the surface furn-
nished the clover catch. Loose soil
on the surface acts as mulch, and
keeps the soil below moister than 1t
would otherwise be. We have usu-
ally had better catches of clover on
land newly cleared than on that long
cultivated. On the latter sowing on
a surface that has been repeatedly
frozen and thawed during the winter
gave the best results But on new.
cleared land we have had just as good
clover catches with oats. which are
generally poor crop to seed with.

discover the occupation of their vic
tim, to return the money. Mr..
Heaston Is horse dealer.

Harden Waste for Poultry,

On most market gardens there is a
good deal of waste vegetable matter
thrown out of the wash-house daily
and dumped into the hog pen or on
the manure pile, says the Independ-
ent. Much Of this, such as cabbage
leaves. coarse celery stalks, lettuce
leaves, etc, are just what the poultry
needs In winter, and it will pay any
poultryman who lives near a market
garden 10 secure a supply OF 1t. or
course the market gardener who
keeps poultry will have the advant-
age OF constant supply of this waste
at hand without the trouble of trans
porting 1t to his farm. Where good
supply Of vegetables cannot:easily be
obtained, clover hay is the most con-
venient substitute. II cut in hay
cutter and wet with boiling hot
water, and then covered up for an
hour, the hens will eat it greedily
and leave very little OF it behind
them. Dry hay or straw should also
be given them to scratch among for

IT is high time that the colleges
OF this country call halt on the
brutal practices Of some of their
students, and that the civil authori-
ties visit swift punishment upon
those who violate the laws. The
crime Of wanton murder has been
committed by hazers at Cornell, and
those responsible for it should be
brought to justice without delay and
without any regard to the influences
of wealth or social standing that
may obtrude themselves into the
case. These things cannot be per-
mitted to disgrace our highest in
situations. The sooner the old
fashioned idea that young men go to
college to aquire education is revived,
the better it will be for the country
and its good name.

THE vote of the Massachusetts,
General Court" to abolish Fast day
is an evidence of progress; hut it may
be dangerous precedent. Fast day
has been played out" for many years,
even in the old Bay State, where 1t
was won't chiefly to flourish; but it
belongs to precisely the same class of
holidays as Thanksgiving, and its
abolition may endanger the latter.
In that case it would be an unmiti-
gated evil. The average New-En-
glander at home or abroad would not
know what to do without Thanks

Farmers, "Don,ts."

Sarcasm IS an effective weapon, and
with it a pxper published for farmers,
the StocSman, seeks to combat the
tendency Of some farmers-let us say
a small minority OF them-to neglect
and ill-treat their wives. The Stock
man publishes this list of @Don'ts"
for the farmer:
Don't try to please your wife.
Don't appreciate one thing she
does.
Don't ever plan your work so as to
be able to take her to any entertain
ment.
Don't help care for the children;
that is what you got her for.
Don't fail to invite company to din
ner on Sunday without letting her
know, so she can have a day for rest.
Don't get the bucket of water from
the cistern when asked; any one can
pump who half tries.
Don't fail to ask your wife il she
wants you to do all the homework
when she asks you to put some wood
in the stove.
Don't neglect asking what she has
done with all the egg and butter
money; for it will more than supply
the table, help pay the hired man,
get the children's books and clothes,
etc.
Don't wonder that your food has a
peculiar flavor, for 1t Is seasoned
with blasted hopes, signs of disap-
pointment, etc.
Don't be surprised to READ that the
majority Of insane women are farm
,ers' wives.

Roadside Dirt as Manure.

1t often pays to pillow low places
on the side OF roads where there is
much travel, and opening the fence
scrape the rich soil into the adjoin-
ing fields Perhaps it would not pay
to load and unload dirt and carry it
much distance, but man with ac-
tive team and scraper can dispose of a
large amount of soil by few hours
work. Not only will the field be en-
riched, but the road will be i'm
proved, the removal of the earth
from the sides making the road bed
comparatively more elevated. 1t is
far better plan than the practice
which used 70 be common of scrap
ing rich dirt from the roadside into
the center of the, track to be cut by
travel into almost fathomless ruts.

Dreadful Vow.

In w. r. LeFanu's Seventy Years
of Irish Life" Is a reference to the
visit of George Nv. to Ireland in 1921,
which Was enliveued, as much as a
state visit may he, by the following
incident:
The King entered Dublin in an
open carriage, drawn by eight splen-
did horses, and attended by num-
Der of grooms and footmen in mag
nificent liveries. He was in military
uniform, AMI constantly took of his
hat, smiling and bowling To the peo-
pie, who enthusiastically cheered
him. At one point man close To
the carriage stretched out his hand
to the King and said:
shake haIds, your Majesty"
The King shook hands heartily.
The man waved his hand, and called
out:
@Begorra, I'll never wash that hand
again!"

LOYAL sentimentalists all over the
country have been thanking their
kindly gods that when the grand old
Kearsarge went to the bottom with
her honest hull torn to splinters by
the cruel rocks Of Roncador reef the
famous guns with which she silenced
and sunk the pirate Alabama were
not aboard her. This fact was devel-
oped in the reply of member OF the
naval committee to an enthusiastic
Congressman's proposition to appro-
pirate large sum of money to raise
and save the historic guns Of the
Kearsarge." But, alas! even such
melancholy consolation as was con-
tanned in the assurance that the
Kearsarge carried a complete battery
of new, modern guns to the bottom
and not the heavy metal which set
tied Semmes is now torn rudely to
shreds in the calm announcement
that IAN official statement prepared
by the ordnance bureau for the in
formation of the Secretary shows the
following disposition Of the battery
aboard the Kearsarge at the time Of
the Alabama engagement: The two
11-inch guns are now at Mare Island
California; navy yard. The four 81
Founders were sold at the Boston
navy yard in February, 1888, TO M.
Lissberger, of New YORK; the 90
pound Dahlgren rifle was sold at the
same yard in 1875 to the Boston Ma
chine Company, and the 12-pound
light howltzer was melted up In DC.
tober, 1889" Oh! what fate is
this! Four of the historic guns sold
for old junk, one probably worked
over into modern breech-loader and
resold, sans former shape, sans pedi-
gree, sans everything tending to con-
meet it with its honorable past, to
nobody knows whom, and the last ig-
ANONYMOUSLY melted up into proleta-
rian pig-metal! Better far had the
guns of the Kearsarge gone down
with the Kearsarge and found honor
able burial meath the seas they once
proudly commanded, or better yet
had the ordnance bureau kept its
horrible, CHASTITY, vulgar knowledge
to its musty and impersOnal self.

AN Orange, N. j., saloon-keeper,
Murdo by name, has introduced a
new system of furnishing customers
who fail to pay for their drinks. He
produces swords and invite the delin-
quents to duel. AS he Is an expert
swordsman, he usually succeeds In
getting his pound OF flesh from some
portion of the inpecunious patrons
anatomy. Murdo's system Is novel
and has some commendable features,
but it may be doubted whether the
Chicago plan OF hitting the nonpaying
customer over the head with a bung-
starter and then throwing him into
the next ward is not preferable afteJ
all. Some day Murdo will go up
against a superior swordsman and get
hurt. The Chicago saloonist runs nc
such chances AS a wielder OF the
bungstarter or the ice pick he is
secure against any odds.
