More Spring Practice.

il is evident that one Of the principal
results of the changes in the rules Will
be more general preliminary spring prac-
tice than has been held In recent years.
Already Yale. Princeton and Harvard
have announced their plans for spring
work. Aside from the necessity OF famil-
iarlzing themselves with the new rules
which will be more important than ever
this year, the Yale various colleges are
awaktng TO the immense advantage to be
secured by spring practice. Yale apqar-
entity has a better appreciation OF tins
than any of her rivals, and this explains
much OF Ellis success on the STidiron.
Last spring Capt. Coy Instituted Longer
preliminary practice than ever known II
Yale. Its value was demonstrated when
his team Won the championship and Wa
generally admitted 70 he superior Ia any
eleven Yale ever produced As head
coach, Coy intends to see that this prac-
tice is followed out during 1910.
Princeton apparently intends to emulate
Yale example. The Tigers will need to
do something. not only to rehahi!itate the
foot ball machine generally, but also to
make up for the many valuable men lest
from 1909, list which includes nearly
eyery veteran on the squad.

Division B Teams.
The important match Of the week in
this division was the meeting between
the two leaders. Agriculture and Interior.
This brought forth a close, though in

could not be finished. and upon the result
of this depends the final outcome of tie

NEW YORK. February 1e.-Good news
to horsemen Is contained In the an
nouncement OF the Westminster Racing
Association that the historic Belmont
stakes will probably be voluntarily re-
duced in value one-half this season.
This means that there will be only $1O.-
600 added instead of the annual $4,000.
At first glance it looks like bad news,

Pratt Beats Huntington.

The other A division engagement was

fortunately this match was robbed of its
chief attraction through the inability Of
Walker and Zapoleon to get together on
board one. On board two Pratt scored
first blood for his side by trapping Hunt
ington into a losing position early in the
evening. Roberts. however. after long
interval brought Agriculture even by de-
feating Boykin. The latter opened with
a queens gambit, which was declined In
the usual manner. but before the opening
was fairly launched the players began to
mix 1t up, with the result that Boykin
won a pawn. Roberts went right after
him and succeeded in regaining his pawn.

War-Navy Wins.

| In the A contest War-Navy had its
strongest team in the field against Gov
eminent Printing Office. The game on
board one between Sournin and Mccormick
was postponed, but War-Navy won on all
the other boards. so the match goes to
it's credit in the winning column Dr.
Adair, having returned to the city, took
charge OF board two for War-Navy. His
Opponent, Arends, opened with a Giuoco
piano, and both players developed pref
tily 1Adair, however. annexed a couple
of pawns on the queens side during the
progress of long fight, and these enabled
him to win easily after the pieces were
exchanged.
Bursley, on board three, could make no
Roadway against Webster's favorite Span
ish attack. The War-Navy mans clever
play yielded him a piece in the middle
game, and he had no difficulty in holding
his lead to the end. thus adding another
notch to his winning sequence.
Col. Harvey also was in winning form
against Burkholder. The latters italian
opening went along smoothly until
slight slip on his part gave the War
Navy captain an opportunity to initiate
q strong attack which finally won.

Team Championship.

There was no change In the respective
positions of the leading teams in the de-
partmental chess championship competl-
ton resulting from the past week
matches In the A division the champion
Interiors were opposed by Agriculture,
and although the latter at one time looked
to have at least a draw in hand, the out
look was not SO favorable for them when
the time for adjournment was reached.
Government Printing Office tried some
changes in their line-up against War
Navy. but were unable to do anything
effective The last named team Is now
making a bold bid to overhaul the cnam-
pions and dispossess them Of the lead.
Agriculture retains its grip on first place
in the division, but is being rather
crowded by Interior. while Government
Printing Office and Bureau of Engraving
and Printing are both going strong
enough to cause an upset whenever either
of them takes the field against the lead
ers. An interesting contest took place
during the week between Agriculture and
Interior the score at present standing
even. with one game to be finished. The
Bureaus were taken into camp by Govern
ment Printing Office, the latter team win
ming by a considerable margin.

ECONOMY OF SILAGE
AS A DAIRY FEED,

Those daily farmers who doubt
whether II pays to have silage are
those who have never fed It, writes G..
w. Patterson. dairy expert
The silo will cheaper the cost Of
feeding. Too many farmers have the
impression that the profits in the
dairy business are controlled entirely
by the cost or value of the butter and
the amount sold. They fail to appre-
ciate how important Is the cost of pro
duction.
The other day farmer told me that,
inasmuch as we would probably have
scarcity OF feed this fall aud win
ter, he would have to economize with
his feed, or, in other words, feed less.
He failed to see that the more COW
eats and the more she digests the
more milk she will give and the moro
profit she will make. Economy does
not come from skimping on the feed.
1t takes a certain amount of feed to
maintain the body. All above this can
be utilized for the production of milk.
The silo enables us to furnish the
cows with the greatest possible
amount of digestible nutrients from
the feed. Theory and practice both
show that about 40 per cent of the
feed nutrients of the corn plant are in
the stalk and leaf. About twelve
acres Of average corn put up as a ST.
lage in a 16 by 80 silo will make about
100 tons of silage. Inasmuch as silage
contains 1919 per cent Of digestible nu-
trients, 40 tons will contain about
10000 pounds. Since the per cent
digestible nutrient In corn is 1873, II
would require some 701 bushels to
furnish enough nutrients to equal that
contained in 120 tons of silage.
How many acres of the average corr
as we end 1t are necessary to yield 701

It's an old saying that the dollar is

to your aid at the time of your need
the man you hardly have to ask-the
man who says, "Old fellow, II there's
anything can do for you, just let me

favors; he's just simply your friend.
That's the sort of man who Will get

bushels? The average yield according
to the 1908 year book Is about thirty
one bushels. In other words 1t would
take some twenty-five acres of corn
to furnish as much digestible nutrients
as we can get from 100 tons Of silage
obtained from twelve acres. The fact
that many farmers are finding that 1t
is possible through the use OF silo
to almost double the number OF cows
for a given acreage shows in this con-
nection that theory agrees with prac-
tice.
Again, how many pounds OF cotton
seed meal are necessary to furnish
$4,000 pounds of digestible nutrients?
Cottonseed meal contains 66.3 per cent
digestible nutrients. 1t would there
fore require 23.34 tons, which, at $50
per ton, means 500. Ii other words.
twelve acres of corn in a silo are worth.
as far ms digestible nutrients are con-
cerned. 500 worth OF cottonseed meal,
or the equivalent Of $50 per acre.
Furthermore, we find that the 100 tons
Of silage are equal In digestible nutri-
ents to $500 worth of bran at $28 per
ton. Again. 12I tons of silage are
equal In digestil,le nutrients to 1862
bushels Of oats. II the average yield
Of oats is twenty-five bushels to an
acre. which the 1908 year book shows,
how many acres are necessary to pro
duce as much digestible nutrients as
we find in 120 tons OF sllage? The an
swer is sixty-three. l.t
