Princeton. Nov. 14.-Yale's varsity
football eleven was conquered on
Brokaw Field by the Princeton Tigers
Saturday afternoon by 9 to 0, the same
figures which prevailed in the Blues
victory last year at New Haven. The
touchdown made by Old Nassau's
eleven was the direct result of soul
stirring run of 05 yards by little
Arthur Poe, the right end, who got
the ball on tumble in the first half
when Yale had worked 1t by fierce line
smashing to within fifteen yards of
Princeton's line. poe was so quick
that he had secured lead of ten yards
over the nearest Yale men. and main
tained this advantage all the way
down the field in his mad race to what
proved victory. Some persons may
call 1t fluke. Others may declare
that it was poor playing by Yale, while
still more may draw the conclusion
that Poe made one of the most SEN
sational plays ever seen on a football
field. But whatever may be said, the
fact remains that the whole piece Of
business comes under the head Of foot
ball, and that the fortunes Of the rival
throngs around the gridiron went with
this play.

eat their MI ana Jnen go TO the pasture
to lie down. When having such a pas
ture run adjoining rapefield, they will
commence one side Of rape and take it
almost clean as far as they go, and II
not chased or scared will seldom go into
the rape beyond where they are eating.
When eating rape, they should always
have free access to salt, and 1t is better
that they have little dry feed, like
wheat bran, each day. Rape is also
fine pig food, and where they can have
a chance at q rapefield they will eat it
regularly twice day and large quanrl-
ties of it. 1t is also splendid stock
food, and may even be fed to COWS in
milk quite freely if given a little wilt
ed and Immediately after milking and
they be fed at same time some dry grain
food like wheat bran.
AS it takes severe freezing to injure
rape it will continue to grow and may
be pastured until midwinter, unless COW
cred so deep with snow that sheep can't
get it. With q good crop of rape flock
of lambs may be bought in August and
pastured three months on the rape and
sold at the same price per pound and
easily clear $40 per acre for the rape by
the gain they will make, and what is
better the land will be better than be-
fore the rape was grown. A great deal
of disappointment has been occasioned
by getting spurious seed. What should
be bought is the Dwarf Essex. It should
not cost over 6 or 8 cents per pound at
most and is now SO common that no
scotsman is excusable for selling any
thing but the genuine or for charging
large price for 1t.
Suppose now that three pounds be
sown per acre in our corn. It will only
cost "a cents at the highest price and 10
cents more will SOW it, and even if not
pastured, brt turned down in the spring,
it viii add many times it's cost to the
nitrogen Of the soil.

HORSE HARVESTING.

Mistakes Commonly Made In Adjusting
Collar, Hames and Traces.
IL The National Stockman and Farm
ar Mr.. J. L. Piersol writes:
"The collar on low withers, wide
chests and heavy shoulders will stand
almost perpendicular, while on high
withers, thin, narrow shoulders, concave
breasts wanting to stand with the head
down hill, the front feet braced forward
to rest, the top Of the collar stands back
at an angle Of several degrees These
are the extremes that bother the would
be up to date know how to harness a
horse man. Most Of the collars now in use
are huge affairs, the same size from top
to bottom, with equal bearing all over
the shoulders. I saw one Of these on
horse in a team with room to throw a
dog through below the neck. I asked
the driver why he used SO large collar.
He had to, or the horse would choke
down. True. Whenever the horse start
ed throwing his front feet forward the
joints Of the shoulders acted like pinch
bars, working the collar upward until
arrested by the tension of the chains at
the belly band or upending or choking
the horse down, no matter how large
the collar. why ADMIT OF plVotal
point, then fit collar with equal bear
ings from top to bottom with names
firmly strapped? If these names and
collar were hinged or jointed at top and
bottom so each hame would move back
and forth with its shoulder blade, there
would be some excuse. This modern
neckgear is perfectly rigid, the scapula
joints working like eccentrics below,
the top of the shoulder blades damned
under the collar at every step. In few
days the horse is bruised above and be-
low and unfit for use for many days,
perhaps weeks. / have a horse that if
harnessed with one Of these big collars
the chains at right angles by the square
would strike the ground in front of his
hind feet. With the same rule applied
to the other horse the chains would pass
above the hooks. The square has no
more to do with hitchinR a horse than

RAPE.
How to Grow This Invaluable Food For
Sheep and Other Stock.

Dayton, O., the best paying plant for
sheep food is undou btedly rape. In The
National Stockman and Farmer Mr.. j.
s. Woodward describes its culture:
It may be sown almost any time from
April to September and give crop
that wi. richly pay for time and ex-
pense OF growing. Rape may be sown

poul. %. are, and four seasons out
of H. ii il withstand the drought,
and a. - oats are harvested it will

Of excelleI ID and come Just i'll time
when the should be weaned.
Every c.. Id should also have
three pound rape seed sown at the
last cultivati By putting boy on
steady horse can sow the seed broad
cast over the anding corn to be Guilt
waited in. A, le Of the seed may lodge
in the leaves 1t enough will reach the
ground to M profitable crop. It
won't make very much show when corn
Is cut, but in short time the ground
will be covered, and as it grows rapidly
after the fall rains it will pasture a
large stock and be worth to the ground
many times as much as the seed will
cost.
But for main crop and to give lar
gest returns it should be grown as lone
crop To do this best and obtain most
satisfactory results in feed production
and as a renovator Of the soil and an
eradicator of weeds the field should be
plowed quite early and we'll. It should
then be narrowed or cultivated once a
week until the middle Of May. or even
up to LIST Of June, but none of this Gull
Nvation shouldIe deep. What Is wanted
IL to induce as many weed seeds as pos
sible to terminate and be killed before
the rape Is sown. If the land Is poor, it

manure are scattered ON each acre after
the blowing and worked in by the after

The soil being in fine condition, the
seed, three pounds per acre. should be
sown, and it should be done after q
shower IL possible. While it will do
very we'll broadcasted, it will do much
better to be put in drills from 20 to 80
and sheep will eat 1t much better. In
fact, where 1t is growing side by side
sown In the two ways they won't eat
any Of the broadcasted SO long as the
other lasts. If the land has been we'll
cleaned before seed is sown, it will
make a good crop without any cultiva-
tion, but it will give enough more by
being cultivated once or twice after
coming up to ten times pay the cost.
In about six or eight weeks after
sowing it Will have made a large
growth, from u to feet, and be ready
for pasturing.
When sheep or lambs are first turned
to the rape, it should never be when it
is wet with dew or rain and never when
they are hungry. In either case they are
almost sure to eat SO rapidly and SO
much that many of them will bloat and
possibly some die. The better way is to
turn them to the rape after it is dried

Those in this city who have made the trip
on the elegant steams RS of the Norfolk and
Washington Steamboat Company count
themselves very lucky in having such a
line to connect them with Fortress Monroe.
Norfolk, Portsmouth and Newport News
All these steamers are fitted up in elegant
style, have all modern conveniences, are
heated by steam, lighted by electricity, and
serve excellent meals. One of these steam
ers leaves 7th street wharf every evening
at 6:3O, arriving at Fortress Monroe and
Norfolk early the following morning.
The most delightful route to Mount Ver-
non is by the iron steamer Charles Mac
alester, built expressly for this service and
heated throughout by steam, which leaves
1th street wharf every week day at 10
a. m and As pm, returning due to arrive
at Washington at 40 and 5:IJ pm. The
sail of thirty-two miles on the historic
Potomac gives the tourists an opportunity
to see Arlington, Alexandria, Fort Foote
and the most modern Notifications Fort
Washington and Sheridan Point, and MANY
other points of interest along the shores
of Maryland and Virginia. This is the onlv
