CORNELL ASKS
FOR REFORM
Says Game of Football Must
Be Modified.

Ithaca, n. Y, Dec. 13-The Cornell
university faculty at an executive SEES
sion Saturday, passed a resolution ad-
vocating strong reform in the rules
governing football, for the guidance of
Professor L NJ. Dennis, CornelTs rep
resentative on the rules committee.
The resolution says. among other
things:
With a view to securing greater
safety Of life and limb and higher
standards of honor and fair play, it is
the insistent' opinion of this faculty
that the continuance Of football as a
game for undergraduates depends upon
an effecative revision and enforcement
of the rules regulating the game. This
opinion applies further to the selec-
ton of officials and to the conduct of
players and coaches"

BANTAM CHAMPION
TRAINS FOR BOUT
Much Interest in Proposed
Boxing Carnival for
Gary Dee. 20.

Johnny Coulon. the bantam weight
champion, is working out daily for his
ten-round bout with Earl Denning be-
fore the Gary Athletic club at Gary
Dec. 20. The little fellow is devoting
most of his time to boxing with a re
tinue of trainers at one of the local
athletic clubs.
Coulon was never in better shape
than at the present time. Although
the articles call for lis pounds at the
ringside, Coulon is way below that fig
ure and viii enter the ring at below
III pounds.
VIII Give Away Weight.
Johnny is strong at 10 pounds. In
the coming match he will give away at
least three or four pounds. Denning
figuring on entering the ring at about
Ia pounds.
Denning is training hard for the
bout. He realizes that his opportunity
to make a strong impression has ar
rived, and he is doing all in his power
to be in perfect shape when he faces
the champion. A good fight on Den
ning's part against Coulon will in
sure him many bouts in the east, and
he is working to this end.
Bouts Limited to Ten Rounds.
Barney Green secretary of the Gary
Athletic club, is working hard to make
the show success. He is negotjat-
ing for number of good men to appear
in the preliminary bouts. None of the
bouts will be more than ten rounds,
that being the limit of bouts in Gary.
No decision is given in the bouts.

WhiteWash Saves Peaches.

The warm days of late February and early March often cause the buds on peach trees to swell; and they are then killed by low temperature. 1t has been demonstrated by careful 'ex- pertinent with thermometers covered with purple and white cloths that the former registered from 10 to 20 de grees higher than those covered with white. This demonstrates the reason why the peach buds start to swell with the first warm days It is the sun heat that they absorb. To avoid his, white wash the trees. They will need two sprayings to cover them thoroughly. Ordinary whitewash will not remain on the trees any length of time, but by using one part of skim milk to four parts of water in the wash, and then adding a pound of salt to each bucketful before spraying it can be made to stick Tor several weeks.

SteaIinq March on the Buqs.

Millions of dollars of damage is done every year in this country by insect pests. One of the worst of these is the San Jose scale. a small soft-bodied insect which affixes itself to the tree and sucks the juices, while injecting a poison which speedily re- suits in the trees death. According to H. H. Howlands, who writes in Suburban Life, this is the time of the year when the owners of trees should "steal a march on the bugs" and so save many dollars worth of fruit. There are several solutions that can be sprayed on the tree which will kill the scale. The best are lime sulphur wash and soluble oils, both of which may be obtained from deal CTS in seedmen's supplies. It is inn portant that the trees should be@thor- oughly pruned before the work of spraying is begun.

Success In Farming.

Intelligent farming still pays. The fluctuations of the market than the merchant or the manufacturer. In the United States we have practically reached the limit of our tillable land. Our population is rapidly increasing by immigration, a majority Of whlch goes to the large cities. Thus, the demand for farm products steadily increases To meet this demand larger production must be realized per acre. More than ever before comprehension of the principles un- deriving his business is necessary for the successful farmer
 One of the factors in the farmers success is a knowledge of his soil and it's requirements as to fertilization and tillage. An appropriation of the benefits of drainage is essential to larger production. Proper tillage to conserve moisture for the use of the plant at it's critical stage of growth must be understood. The plant food necessary to the highest development of a plant and the supply which given soil will yield, can be deter mined only by careful study and ex- perimenting.
 Another item in success is the prop CT definite rotation of crops to soils. The benefits of a definite rotation have been abundantly proved. A wise choice of varieties makes a big diff ference in the returns derived from a soil. It has been shown in Indiana that with exactly the same conditions of soil, climate and tillage one va riety of corn may yield as much as 43 bushels per acre more than anoth- CT Similar differences have been noted with regard to wheat and oats varieties. Then again, it must be folly to attempt to grow grain crops on land which will wash badly and which by nature is fitted Tor grass and fruit.
 The young man who is contemplat- ing engaging in farming will do well to prepare himself to the fullest eX tent possible by careful study not only of books but in some of the va rious courses in agriculture given at the agriculture! leges.-Farmers' Tribune.

Effect of Good and Bad Roads.

In issuing a call for state good roads meeting that was held at Louis vile Oh September IT Gov Augustus E. Wilson of Kentucky said:
 There is nothing which hurts the people more or cost the people more or keep them back more than bad roads. They make it hard to leave home hard to get back. hard to haul, hard to visit, hard to get to heaven sometimes. There is nothing that a man can think of that will do more to help the people than good roads, which make it easy to travel, easy to bring goods home. easy to haul your produce and manufactures to market, easy to go to school and church and easy to avoid many bitter thoughts that bad roads cause

Money in Dairyinq.

The new year book of the United States Department of Agriculture values the total of all farm products for the year 1907 at nearly seven and one-half billion dollars Of this total the dairy products amounted to eight hundred million dollars. This, next to the corn crop, was the largest of any one crop, and was equal to one third of all the cereals produced. It will be seen that the dairy products of our nation are no small item in making up the national wealth. If in addition to this the value of the by- products in the manure secured and the calves and hogs produced without extra expense, there would be no trouble in showing that the dairy COW is easily our greatest wealth-produc- ing factor. Dairying when properly conducted not only takes less from the soil, but is becoming universally recognized as the greatest agent known for restoring the lost fertility to run down and worn-out farms.

Sorghum.

We doubt if enough attention is corghum. Those who use molasses cannot find more healthful article than good sorghum molasses, and the demand always exceeds the supply In any grocery or provision store one may find manufactured syrups nicely put up in gallon buckets and selling freely at good prices. These manu- factured syrups are nothing like as good as is pure sorghum molasses.
 Hundreds of small factories might be profitably established all over the region mentioned, that would give employment to thousands of people, make an easily grown farm product profitable and furnish a wholesome article of food All that is required is enterprise enough to put the arti- cle up in attractive style-in gallon buckets like the manufactured syrup is put up.
 And there is no better food for cat tic and sheep than sorghum fodder, if it is well cured. This is thought to be a difficult thing to do, but we are sure there is ingenuity enough among farmers to devise way to do so jroftably. The seed is another valuable side line. Sorghum seed is now quoted in the market at $140 per hundred pounds. Besides there IS scarcely any better poultry food, and it is understood to be good feed for hogs
 There is another by-product well worth mentioning, and that is the sldmmings from the boiling juice; it is an excellent and strong fat produc- ing slop for hogs. And we believe though we have not tried it, that it would be valuable with which to mix ground feed for fattening cattle.
 Sorghum for syrup should not be grown on the manured land, nor on rich bottom lands. It grows luxuri- antly in such soils, but the mo,asses made from it is sure to be dark, and not of such good quality as that made from sorghum grown on thin, clayed soil
