Is an increased length Of the game
Owing to the fact that it was found
Under the new rules the players were
rather less exhausted than in the Old
game. ii was determined to increase
the playing time another 10 minutes
by adding five minutes TO each half
II was voted 10 continue the method
Of two umpires. but to lcfine their du-
ties more specifically. so that one
would aid the referee in decisions
down the field. This one is practically
an assistant to the referee and is
called a. field Judge. The other. gen
orally speaking, has control of the
decisions that belong to the lineup.
The 10-yard rule is preserved eX-
actly as before. that innovation having
met with almost general approval in
that it made far less effective any
hing like mass plays and forced the
open play which everyone so much
desired
Forward passing has been altered 20
a certain extent making it less risky

How Robinson Got the Coal.

A. Robinson the elevator King
who owns a line Of elevators at
Minor, Blaisdell and other towns
has had a very hard time secur-
ing coal for his customers at
Blaisdell. So urgent were the
demands for coal, and Mr.. Rob-.
inson realizing that his people
would soon actually be suffering
that he went to Williston, bot q
car Of coal at q premium and
stayed right with it until it got
to RlaisdeIl, where it arrived just
in time. He says that the far
mers ought to take alpsson from
the coal shortage and next fall
lay in big supply, when the
roads are good, enough to last
them until spring. People from
Palermo and Tagus who have
been unable to buy coal have
come clear to Blaisdell for 1t.
The farmers in that vicinity in
tended to haul their supply from
the Palda mine fifteen miles south
OF Blaisdell, but owing to the
three or four feet OF snow, IL re-
quir.s two days to make the
trip.

Hints to the Housewives

grapes commence to cook and burst,
keep stirring and pressing from the
top TO the bottom. using a wooden
spoon. Cook for about two hours or
until the grapes are quite soft, take

or squeeze. else the juice will not be
clear. In the meantime have bottles
that have been sterilized by putting
over the fire in cold water. bringing
to boil and boiling steadily for at
least an hour. When the juice has
been strained, return to a proclaim
kettle and cook steadily for half an
hour, taking the scum that rises to
the surface. Pour into the bottles and
seal securely. The beer bottles with
the patent shoppers are easy TO close.
II corks are used. have new ones
soaking first In cold water. Then press
in very tight. Wrap the bottles in
paper to keep in a cool, dry place.
