New Haven. Conn. Feb. 13.-The
announcement has been made at Yale
that Harvard has accepted the propo-
sition of Yale made at the athletic
conference held here last week that
students in professional schools be
debarred from membership on uni
versity teams Princeton has already
aequiesced to the proposition. In
Yale the action of Harvard is con-
sidered to be great concession, as it
is strong in its professional schools.
Yale did not have so many to draw
from. and Princeton is the gamer, hav-
ing depended almost wholly upon her
academic department for athletics.

New Orleans, Feb. 13.-Green Nor
ris is the latest hOrseman to announce
the sale of his string. Tony Wallace
Will sell them next Saturday night, and
the lot of eight includes some nice
horses, including Clifton Forge and
Bryan. No reason is assigned for the
retirement of the veteran trainer from
the local game just now, but there are
rumOrs of disagreement with his old
friend, Mr.. Corrigan, from whom he
secured the best of his present lot.
The two derbies, at the Crescent City
Jockey club and City park tracks. are
scheduled for the same day, March II
Each has $4,000 added and both
promise to be good contests. In the
fair grounds Derby, Lotus Eater and
Disobedient, neither of which has yet
started here, seem to have the largest
following, but the ones which have
been out like Guiding Star and Ben
Holder and Lieber, are running a
close race with them in popular esti-
nation. Lieber has been performing
poorly Of late, and seems to have stalled
off, but there is month still before
the race is to be run, and that ought to
be sufficient time to admit of his being
properly freshened up. Ben Holder
and Guiding Star have not started late
ly and are probably in temporary re-
tirement for special preparation for the
big race.

Mr.. w H. Underwood, Mr.. Hoover of

rious machines to show them off and
explain their merits. This meeting will

Nearly all the apple growers in this

bic them to make a selection and get
the one they think best Fruit spray

Mr. Underwood, who has spent time
and money getting the manufacturers
of spraying machines to come here
and who is interested in the matter
both as an orchard man and from
the cold storage standpoint, says:
1t is very necessary that all the
apple growers spray this year. While
it is little expense, the growers in
Colorado, Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois
and New York with whom / have
talked that have sprayed, tell me that
for every 25 cents they have invested
in spraying, they have gotten back
over a dollar in the quality and grade
of their fruit So it certainly looks
and do this work right."-Hutchin-
