Longman on Friday had a long con

that he was through. The mixup with
Michigan is supposed to have had
some bearing on the case. Neither
Longman nor those at the head Of the

STUDENTS SORRY
1 CONTEST IS OFF
Michigan Expected To Beat NoIe
Dame, Which Would Afford
80 Rooters Much Joy.

ANN ARBOR, Nov. 5.--Disappoint-
ment reigns supreme on the campus
over the action OF the Athletic board
of control in refusing to play the
game scheduled with Notre Dame
eleven this afternoon. Although the
student body realizes that the stand
taken by the authorities Is the only
one that could be expected, still they
are sorry that no opportunity will be
offered for wiping out the defeat OF
last year. Instead Of seeing the
Catholics 60 down to defeat they are
going TO console themselves by
imagining that the scrubs are Notre
Dame and watch the varsity tear
them up.
Not only is the cancelling disap-
pointing to the students but 1t de-
prived numberless alumni and fol-
lowers OF the game from seeing the
team In action before the Pennsyl-
vania game. Many had planned trip
TO Ann Arbor to get line on the
eleven and prepare for the Minnesota
game. Politicians had arranged to
leave their campaigning and grand
mothers had died by the hundreds in
order that supporters OF the maize
and blue might see revenge taken up
on the Catholics. Now all are can
ceiling their plans and trying to con-
tent themselves with reading the re-
ports Of the row.
To the team itself the blow is es-
Decially hard. The contest at SYRIA
cnse placed the varsity in good work
ing order and they are pulling to-
gether, but another good, hard game
was needed to round them out and
put them in fine shape for Pennsyl-
wanna y AS II is they will play the
scrubs and work on signals. Taking
advantage OF the open date, Coaches
1ost and Redden have gone to Phila-
delphia, to watch Pennsylvania in
action. The Quakers play Lafayette
and that affords double interest for
Yost as 1t is his college. The coaches

TEST CASE is
BEING HEARD

The test case which was started by
request Of the farmers of this section
to try the validity of the law allowing
owners of dead horses or other stock,
to haul or drag them over the county
roads thus endangering the health of
live stock in the vicinity of the roads
passed, was brought up before Judge
t. M. Mckinney this morning. At
torney Hurspool representing the de-
PENDANT, who was the man who has the
contract for burying dead stock, E. r.
Raymond. AT a late hour this after
noon Justice Mckinney had not yet de-
cided the case, having taken it into
consideration after hearing the evil
dence given by Attorneys Smith and A.
H. Reynolds.
Attorney Hurspool claimed that they
could not prohibit the hauling of the
carcasses over the roads as the roads
were free to all, while Attorney Ever
EFT Smith for the state, said that it
could be called public nuisance, and
was under the jurisdiction OF the Off

WTRIOL SURE
TO KILL WHEAT

In reply to an article recently pub
lished in the Statesman by G.. l..
Bradley, a farmer of Pomeroy. who
claimed that vitrioled wheat held over
until spring would grow just as well
as any, and further said that it was RI
diculous for the farmers of this county
to listen to such statement, in spite
of the test given it, by farmers around
the union headquarters, President H.
H. Mclean of the Farmers union said
this morning, that a thorough test had
been made of this matter by himself
and Mr.. Evans, and that they were
confident that they were right and that
opinion. Mr.. Mclean stated that out
of about so seed planted only five came
UP, and the seed was taken from the
very grain that he and Mr.. Evans
planted last fall, which is up in good
shape now. Mr.. Mclean further
stated that while Mr.. Bradley might
have done it once, he did not give any
proportions of vitriol to use to so much
wheat, and therefore his article is not
clear From the actual tests made.
however it appears that the local
farmers are right and it s not good
policy to seed wheat that has been
vitrioled and then held over until
spring.
I'm the old days. said Mr.. Mclean,
Il used about a pound of Vitriol to
six or seven bushels ow wheat but
that does not apply now, and we
have found it necessary to use more
vitriol, but when the wheat is held
