There May Be as to Cham
pionship Title.

An Iowa City dispatch says: Reports
of the demand for a post-season game
between Iowa and Minnesota or Wis
consin to settle the western champion
ship, which reached here today,
caused a great deal of comment
among university students and foot
ball players. The insinuation that
Iowa hesitated to meet Minnesota or
Wisconsin because of the strength of
these teams has aroused the local
players, and they say they are willing
to play any team in the west for the
championship if it is agreed that one
game will settle the question. AS yet
no challenge has been received by the
local officials for post-season game.
No movement will be started here to
secure another game, for Iowa claims
the championship on the games al
ready played, but if challenged for the
| title, Coach Kuipe's men are willing to
play one more game.
Vehicles Barred.
Manager McCutcheon, of Iowa, has
announced that vehicles will not be
permitted in the Twelfth street park
at the Thanksgiving game. This rule
has been made in order to insure ac-
comm odations for the immense crowd
that is expected will witness the game.
The result is the Rock Island Club
will be obliged to abandon the plan of
going in a tallyho. Meyer Loeb, of
the club entertainment committee,
has written Manager McCutcheon to
reserve a section of bleachers for the
club, the mem ers of which will at
tend in a body.

CROSSING THTROrTINd STOCK.

A western writer gives good advise
to farmers on BREEDING their mares.
Many farmers owning draft-bred mares
of medium weight will be importuned
to breed their mares to trotting-bred
stations. Such an amalgamation of
blood will produce no class horse. 1t
will not have the style, finish and ac-
tion of coach horse, nor the substance
and size of draft animal. 1t mightb be
fairly serviceable for general use on the
farm, but is no class horse when offer
ed in the market. 1t is the class ami
mails that dealers want, whether draft,
coach or drivers, and the breeder
should not allow himself to be side
tracked by system of cross-breeding
that can only produce nondescripts.
What the trade demands is class breed
ing. Farmers should give heed to
these matters if they aim to raise horses
for the market. Prices for classified
horses have now reached a point which
makes intelligent horse breeding profit
able. But haphazard breeding of horses
will never pay the cost of production.
Farmers must aim to produce the best
animals of class.

SUMTER SANDWICHES.

Sandwiches are now served as a
fashionable dish at teas and luncheons.
From q simple layer of meat and bread,
such as Lord Sandwich devised, it is
said, to save time at the gambling
table, the sandwich has become dish
of myriad form. Almost every variety
of meat or vegetable, dressed with ev-
cry variety of salad dressing, or with
out dressing of any kind, is used for
sandwiches. Nuts have been recently
used in this way. A cheap nut sand
wich is made of the despised peanut,
which is minced fine and spread be-
tween the most delicately thin slices oi
home made bread, freed of its crust and
delicately buttered. English walnuts
and pecan nuts may be used in the
same way. The pecan nut sandwich il
especially nice. These sandwiches
should not be reserved for festive oc
casions, but should be used on the ev
! eryday table. They are especially mic,
served for the summer supper. Pea
l nuts are known to be nutritious, and
is therefore much better to have then
take the place of meat than the coli
slices of vegetables dressed in mayon
naise and used in the same way.

A WARNING AGAINST FRAUD.

The Ohio Experiment Station has
just received the following letter from
Marion county:
''There is a company of men canvass
ing this territory for fruit trees. They
are putting in what they call a model
orchard They claim to be working
directly for and in the interest of your
station, which gives them quite a
leverage with great many farmers. -
To this letter we reply that this Sta
tion sells no fruit trees of any descrip-
tion, and all persons who claim to rep
resent it in the manner indicated are
swindlers and should be arrested for
obtaining money under false pretenses.
