Capt. Burch With Yale.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. November 1S.-
The reorganization of the Yale eleven for
the Harvard game of Saturday was taken
up by Head Coach Bigelow yesterday,
and for an hour the regulars were put
through a signal drill lined up as they
probably will be next Saturday against
Harvard The lineup was:
Left end, Logan; left tackle. Hobbs; left
guard. Andrus; center. Biddle; right
guard. Goebel: right tackle, Brides; right
end, Capt Burch: quarterback. Corey;
Wheaton, and funback, Coy.
Capt. Burch was at his old place at
right end He intends to start the game
against Harvard. He will do some scrim-
recently injured shoulder is strong again
and that he feels sure of playing most
of the game.
The plan of compelling Field Capt.
Coy to alternate at end and fullback is
losing ground as matter of Yale policy.
Coy Is pretty sure to play at fullback,
although he may not be used to catch
punts against Harvard Hobbs selection
at left tackle is permanent. and Lilley
will be used as second string tackle.
From tackle to tackle, however. Yale S
line stands intact as il faced Princeton,
and it is regarded here as one of the
strongest defensive lines Yale ever pre-
scented.
Betting on Saturdays game began here
yesterday. Harvard hackers sending large
pools to this city to be covered on even
terms Thousands of dollars have been
already laid here at that figure, and indi-
cations are that Harvard will send
enough coin here to swamp the Yale
market This is remarkable, as Yale
usually is forced to give odds of from )
TO 4 TO . to !. The change is indicative
of the uncommon confidence which is felt
at Cambridge in the strength of the Har-
ward eleven.

Here's something for the Harvard. Yale
and Princeton folks to swallow if they
can without choking. defiance straight
from the shoulder. 1t comes from the
Pennsylvania and is as follows:
We sorry that we do not meet
Harvard Yale and Princeton this year.
for while we claim the championship and
feel confident that we are superior to any
one of the three by at least two touch
downs. still there would be a great salts
faction in proving the fact to Walter
Camp and the other coaches by defeating
their proteges."
IIou's that for bold declaration of
sridron supremacy? And the Cornell
game hasn't been played vet 1t seems to
be expected that Cornell will be duly
- beaten. as usual but if not will Cornell be
the champion if she beats Pennsylvania?
As matter of fact. if Harvard beats
Vale il won't be an easy matter to decide
between Harvard and Pennsylvania for
the championship. provided Pennsylvania
does beat Cornell. Harvard played bet
ter game against the Indians than Penn
syIvania did. while Pennsylvania took care
of Brown with more ease than Harvard
did. And if Yale beats Harvard there is
the fact that Pennsylvania found Brown
much easier than Yale did. But compare
tive scores, has been said often. are
fragile foundations for basing arguments.
lively.
Reports say that both Harvard and
Pennsylvania have their best team in
years. That probably is true, and it is
100 bad they can't get together and de
eide which is the stronger no matter how
coming games result 1t looks as II the
burden of proof were on Harvard, for
although Harvard walloped Pennsylvania

the next two times. and each time when
Harvard confident of winning Then
came the split. No teams ever fought
harder or with more uncomfortable de-
termination than did the Quaker teams of
1904 and 1905 against Harvard The
present eleven is speedier more versatile
and more polished than either of the
other two was. but surely did not have
anything them in sand.
Since Michigan broke away from the
Big Nine of the west she has not had
success in meeting eastern elevens, and
now there is talk out there that the
trouncing the Wolverines got from Penn
Sylvania may result in their coming back
into the fold. One writer says the Mich
igan students are awakening TO the TACT
that the east is no place for their foot
ball teams to gain fame and that there
is sentiment in favor of resuming ath-
letic relations with the other western in
situations. 1t is a Big Eight instead of
mine at present. but the eight would
welcome the return of the Mlchlgandsrs.
The conference has no feeling against
Michigan and would like to see it once
more affiliated with colleges with which
geographically it belongs. Michigan has
been upset by Pennsylvania three years
in succession. In the days when the
Yost men were gaining their great re- 4
nown on the gridiron they confined their
games to western rivals. The % to o
drubbing handed to Michigan by Pennsyl-
vania is the hardest the former team
ever has had to take.

What we Should Plant For
the Coming Year.

There is no more important
question confronting the farmer
today than how to plan his crop
for 1908. Conditions have
changed since this time year
ago, and no man is wise enough
to foretell what next fall will be,
but "straws indicate the flow Of
the current" and "coming events
cast their shadow BEFORE" while
some general principles can safe
ly be counted upon for use. Now,
on general principle: 1t is al
ways best for farmer to diver.
sify his crops, then all special
indications emphasize the i'm.
portance Of this course for 1908.
Our farmers have been receiving
a good price for their staple cot
ton. We C an not produce it Sc
cheaply as we did several years
back. The crop was short in
1907 over the whole cotton pro-
ducing world. This is likely to
be reversed in 1908. Labor be-
ing turned of from mines, rail
70 ads and factories, is returning
to the country. There will be
more cotton planted this year,
and a probable higher yield per
acre. The only way to control
the masses is by controlling the
individuals. Do not wait on the
union or any organization, but lei
each farmer plan wisely for him
self. This is only safe rule to 90
by, viz: Your first duty is to
make your farm self-sustaining
by growing home supplies. You
will never grow too much cotton
when you have done this. Grow
your wheat, oats, corn, hay, hogs
and cattle, then all the cotton
you can, Grow bale or two
bales per acre if you can, but do
just as good farming with the
other crops. 1t will be wise for
each farmer to plant some one
crop for money crop other than
cotton. 1t is best to have "two
strings 10 your bow" owe
know the right and we approve
it toO," so lets leave the wrong
and the right pursue. Whether
you are renter or a small land
owner, large planter or city
farmer, see if you can not change
your plans for the better. Rotate
your crops and add greater
variety to the list you grow. Our
farmers are greatly disturbed
over our efforts to organize
and to secure a higher price
for our cotton but finally the
questions Of successful farming
must largely be worked out at
home, and depends upon carry,
ing out of a wise, systematic
course upon our own farms. 1t
is refreshing to see a man, young
or old, who is doing the right
kind Of farming. Wherever you
see one, you will find if he is a
young man he is ACHE wing sue
cess if he is old, he has already
won it, and is blessing to him

Governor Sheldon is about to be
called upon to name an appointee to
the normal school board to succeed a
member whose term is expiring and
who is not seeking re-appointment,
and the pressure for the place prom
Uses to be strong.
Without discussing the merits or
dement's OF any of the different aspi-
rants, The Bee ventures to suggest
that the place should be filled with
out respect to supposed preferences of
the avowed friends of either of the
two normal schools which the state
maintains, as has been too often the
case in the past, but that the sole con-
sideTations should rest upon a combi-
nation of personal integrity, business
experience and educational qualifca-
lions.
From one point of view the two
normal schools are business institu-
tions, which require business ability
for their management. There should
be no competition between them, ex-
cept competition to do the best posi-
BILE work most economically and to
turn out the best equipped teachers

year by year becoming more and more
important parts of our general educa-
tional system on whose efficiency de.

The board, which is charged witt

way to make sure of a br~oad-gaugeC
policy is to put broad-gauged men OF

When you hear a politician say he longs

And Is hankering for nothing more than

And your sympathy would only make him

If he isn't reelected
He will sit around detected
Till ne gets a chance to wriggle in once

money is a care,
That he'd rather be a pauper than a multi

Don't believe what he is stating,
He is just prevaricating
And does not deserve the pity he demands
You would see him darkly scowling
could hear him sadly bowling
If he had to earn his living with his hands,
When you hear a wealthy mother say she

To be welded to a worthless little duke OF

Or imagine It would grleve her
II her darling should at once go tltle-mad'
To deliver her fair daughter

Is the dearest plan that she has ever had.
