PLAYERS WANT
TO VISIT US

The Queensland Rugby Union is de-
sirteus of sending a football team to
this coast next season to compete with
the representatives of stanford Univer-
sfty and the University of California.
william Unmack will present the mat
ter to the college authorities. Unmack,
who refereed the big match between
the rival universities last season, has
been appotuted American representa-
tive of the, Queensland Rugby Union.
Apparently It is the intention of the
players of the antipodes to establish
friendly athletic relations with the
players in this country.
E. ]. Baird, treasurer of the Queens
land governing body. In football, and a
noted referee, has written to Unmack,
asking him to enter into negotiations
with the college officials. Owing to the
distance separating Queensland and
California, the time is comparatively
short in which to prepare for series

correspondence with Colonel Edwards
of the University of California faculty
and with Ollie Snedigar, the student
manager of athletics. He also has
written to DR.. Angel of Stanford and
D. D. Sales. the athletic manager of the
Palo Alto institution.
An Australian steamship Will leave
here next Thursday and Unmack hopes
to be able to write to the Queensland
ers either that the college men look
upon their proposal with favor or else
that they will not be able to consider 1t.
The coming of representative team
would give the Rugby game a marked
stimulus and would bring it right UP to
date. The lack of practice games last
season was felt by the collegians and
an outside team would be welcomed
with delight The games would have a
beneficial effect on the teams for the
big game and would give the latter
event added interest.
II the Queenslanders come they will
be ready to play games with the two
universities and with Nevada, Los An
geles, Canadian and other teams. The
players would have to start for this
coast not later than the middle of Sep
tember, which would give them short
season of training here before plunging
into active competition.
The Australian players have watched
the adoption of Rugby by the col
legians here with great interest and
they seem anxious to assist in the fur
ther advancement of the game In this
country.

CORBETT MATCHED
WITH HERMAN

Young Corbett seems to have hypno-

rotund Denver boy is reflected in the
articles, as the once champion feather
weight has fixed the weight at 1876
pounds three hours before the fight.
The surprising part of the match is
that 1t will be brought off in opposition
to the Cans Britt affair; yet Cans has
undertaken to train Corbett. Both fights
are to be held on March IS. Herman
will be giving away considerable
pounds, that being the mark he touched

season, is no longer the property of
S. c. Hildreth. President Thomas n.
Williams of the New California Jockey
Club purchased the colt yesterday from
Hildreth for $4,000.
Although President Williams has
never seen Firestone run, having been
absent in the East on the occasion of
each of his three sensational victories
early in January. he was guided by the
advice of turf associates in acquiring
the colt for the purpose of strengthen
ing his stable. This now consists of
fifteen young horses, most of whom
have shown nothing to warrant the be-
lief that they will be capable of carry
ing the Williams colors to the front in
the big handicaps of the Eastern turf,
which is the ambition of the local
jockey club president.

that he had not yet decided upon his

DAIRY DOTS.

The agricultural colleges areltaking
a lively interest in the gasoline milk
maid" as the milking machine has
been termed. She is in the same cate
CORY with the flying machine so far as
she remains tickle and unreliable.
John Hosmer, of Missouri, who has
succeeded in building up worn out
farm and is making it pay $4,000 a
year profit largely from successful
dairy, says: "The income annually
from an average good cow should be
close to $65 for butter fat and $12 for
SKINNED milk. Her calf is worth
about 50 from the dairy standpoint, as
it is taken away from its mother and
sold as soon as possible. A cow should
begin milking at two years of age and
continue in vigor until she is twelve
years DID,"
A Danish scientist has recently de-
veloped special system of udder ma
nipulation, sort of massage, for the
mammary gland, as it were, which it
is claimed augments the flow. The
Augelund method, as it is called, in
wolves three manipulations, each
thrice repeated or until no ore milk
is obtained. First, the pressure of the
| quarter on each side against each
other thrice repeated, followed by re-
moval of the milk; second, the
pressure or the glands together on
each side, the fore quarter being first
manipulated and then hind quarters,
followed by the removal of the milk;
and third, the fore quarters are press
ed between hand and body, the hands
holding the teats loosely, then the
hind quarters also followed by milk
ing.
In planning for dairy barn the
matter of manure trenches should re-
ceive considerable attention. There are
many mistakes made in this particu-
lar, as they are usually made too deep
or too shallow. We have frequently
seen them so deep and with sloping
sides that there was danger of the
cows injuring themselves by falling
into them. Prof. w. J. Spillman, OF
the Department of Agriculture, recon
mends that they be from eight to ter
inches deep and from fifteen to eight
cen inches wide. They should be
, wide enough to admit scoop shove
to facilitate cleaning. Trenches of the
size mentioned above will hold about
two days accumulation if it is neces
sary to leave it go that long. The
sloping edge on the outer side of the
broad, shallow trench is very objec
tionable and dangerous. The sides o
the trench should be vertical Cows
will soon learn to step over them, bu
if the sides are sloping they will stel
over, then slip in. This matter o
trenches should receive attention
