SEVERAL FACTS ON POULTRY
Flock Will Not Do Much During Au-
gust and Few Eggs Are to Be
Expeeted-Time to Clean.
Ry PRoF. L. sWINEYN

AS a general rule the flock will not
do much during the month Of August.
Some hens are still broody; some
are beginning to moult and one may
expect but few eggs for a while.
Then, too, most of us are apt to
grow careless about the poultry busi-
ness, since 1t is not, at present, bring
ing us in anything worth mentioning.
We neglect to clean out the drop
pings as often as we used to; the
roosts are never washed and aired
out; no fresh new nests take the
place of the old, filthy ones; while
the heat coupled with all these pro.
duces a scent both nauseatlng and
dangerous to the flock,
Lice and mites thrive under these
conditions and unless we keep a close
and constant watch they sneak in and
are playing havoc before we realize
It. So, let's dip the hens about the
time they begin to moult and spray
the poultry house thoroughly with
some effective, homemade solution,
There are many such and they cost
next to nothing.
Let's wash the roosts with ten
quarts of good, strong soap-suds to
which have been added a quart Of
kerosene and some strong brine, or
use a good coat Of whitewash,
Let's see that every atom Of the
droppings is removed from the build.

FEEDS FOR EGG PRODUCTION
Farmer Should Be Able to Supplement
Natural Resources Of the Farm
to Increase Revenue.
(By ]. 8. JEFFERYD


The production Of eggs for market
is generally considered the most prof
table branch Of poultry keeping.
Under proper conditions there is no
reason why eggs should not be pro
duced at a price that will allow a
good margin of profit, This should
be especially true Of eggs produced
ON farms where the fowls may find a
large part Of their sustenance at no
cost to the farmer, utilizing what
would otherwise be waste products.
With knowledge Of what is neces-

FORTY-FOUR YEARS OF
 FOOTBALL HISTORY HERE

With tAe close of the 1912 football season forty-four. years of gridiron play was completed. Since 1869, when the first intercollegiate contests were scheduled, football has undergone many changes. Parke Davis, of the football rules committee, who delights in de1ving into musty tonnes and re- cap1tulating amateur and college sports in impressive tables has pre- well worthy the attention of all de- voices of football. MT. Davis in writing of the different periods of pro- gress states:
 From 1869 to 1876 the game was in process of forming and intercollegiate relationships in the process of estab- lishment. From 1878 to 1890 the game was controlled by the old American Intercollegiate Football Association, which conducted an orderly schedule of games and awarded an official the present time the game has been characterized by independent relation ships and an inconp1eteness of sched- ule. The games and failures of the leading teams to play one another therefore make a compilation of cham pionships impossible for all years. It is true that the public in those years in which ties occurred, and particu- larlydn those years in which two lead ing teams did not play each other, by a concensus of critical opinion select ed single champion.
 Leaving out this factor of personal judgment and making 8 conpila tion only of the leading elevens the leader ship therefore in the past forty-four years resulted as now will be shown. The championship for the yearF

0WSLEY ASKS FOR
 BETTER COACHING
FORMER YALE FOOTBALL STAR TELLS TROUBLE AT NEW
 HAVEN.

New Haven, Dec. 20.-Speaking of coaching Jack Owsley, former head coach, said last night:
 What Yale needs is not an all- around coach. We need the coaches and a1l-around coaches kept in their places. The men just off the team can do this with a little unselfish- ness on the part of the above de- scribed parties. If the older men tails and perfection of their own former positions and the judging of the candidates for them there would be no need for a change.
 eff another year or two should find the trouble growing worse, then we will have to get a man to make them behave. There are only two men to whom all Yale gives way in the ques- tion of football, and they are lief fe11nger and Hinkey. To get the greatest benefit from the graduates of the Yale teams the voice of either one of these two or both is neces- sary.
 "Otherwise we had better stick to the present ide-. The next best thing besides the present method or 'Heff' or Hinkey would be a com mittee to advise the active coach, the committee to serve without sal arieS.''
 Walter Camp. representative of ball eleven. last night sent out in- vitations to all former captains and many former players to meet at the Yale Club, New York City, on De- cember 28, to discuss plans for inn proving the coaching system.

 AS BENCH MANAGER
New York Sum-

The fans of New York are counting the days between now and April 10 when the Giants and the Yankees. led by two of the greatest managers that long series Of battles where ultimate victory means the glory Of a title and a pennant and the more substantial reward of division of the spells of a worlds series. Playing upon the same grounds but at different times and against different adversaries, the Ma tional and American League clubs should afford the enthusiasts a season of continual excitement.
 Every one knows what may be ex- pected from the Giants under John J. McGraW, that little Napoleon of base Dall and so interest at the present time is naturally centred upon the Highlanders and their coming chief tain. Under the inspiration of the man who is to direct their fight it would appear that there are no bat dement's they may not hope to scale, without the hope of success. Frankly we are all eager for the coming Of the Peerless Leader. and we want to know what he will do when he gets here Some few questions may be answered authorita lively

 Chance also says that on account of business reasons he was unable to go to Chicago to meet President Farrell and that he will not now come East until after the holidays He states that he has absolutely no personal knowledge of the fitness of Bermuda a training camp. It was of course for this very reason that Business Manager Arthur Irwin left for the is lands two days ago. He will bring back with him all the data available and be in a position to make com prehensive report.
 Chance declares that he has never received any definite offer to manage the Yankees and therefore has no idea to what terms will be agreed upon or whether he will sign a short or long term contract Naturally it was for the purpose Of arranging these very things that the meeting in Chicago was planned, but President Farrell himself has said that when he and Chance once get together there will be no quibb1ing over terms and that he has not the slightest doubt that the whtole affair, as far as the contract is concerned, can be settled in five min utes.

HARE CHAIRMAN
 OF PENN FOOTBALL
ANNOUNCES THAT GAMES WITH WEST POINT AND DARTMOUTH
 ARE PROBABLE.

Philadelphia, Dec. 20.-Thomas Trux- ton Hare, the famous captain of the University of Pennsylvania football team of 19OO was elected yesterday af- ternoon as chairman of the football committee Radical changes in grid iron tactics will be made.
 Thomas O. Haydock a former track star and all around athlete, was se- Iected to fill the position of Mike Mur- ing the absence of that veteran train CT. Owing to the ill-health of Mur- pny, Haydock will be coach and train CT in all but name.
 The position of field coach for the football team was not filled by the football committee, which held a lengthy and spirited session, but if appeared that Andy Smith has but lit tie chance to again coach Penn, as ms candidacy was supported by only two members of the committee.
 vor of several big games for Penn, and several changes in the schedule were discussed and proposed. Noth- ing definite has been heard from Yale, but it is likely that West Point and Dartmouth will be added to Penn S list. Georgetown is also looking for a place on the Penn schedule.
 Haydock assisted Murphy last year in getting and keeping the Penn ath- letes in shape, and made such a good showing that he will have entire Der of the relay team which beat Yale in 1906 and defeated Chicago in 1906 and 1908.

JOHNNY DUNDEE GETS
 DECISION OVER EDDIE
 MORGAN IN FAST FIGHT

In a bout which bristIed at times with fast action and at other times was marred by too much holding, Johnny Dundee of New York gained the honors over Eddie Morgan the English featherweight, at the Forty fourth Street Sporting Club, New York, last night
 The ringside weights showed only a difference of six ounces, according to -he announcer. Morgan weighed 123A pounds and Dundee 123 pounds and 6 ounces. In height, reach and general size there seemed practically no diff however, showed more strength, hit ting power and aggresSiveness than Morgan, and these gained him the honOrs-
 Dundee's work differed considerably from what he has shown in his other bouts. He did less of the jumping lack work and went in to rough mat teF-s rather than try to outbox his op- rsonent In the early part of the con- ing Morgans stomach. and he drove dozens of terrific punches to the Bri- ion which made him double up. Later he made Morgan's face a target of his attack and the Briton, tired by the hard punching and the strenuous pace s1f the preceding rounds, finished very poorly Had the bout gone longer shown to much better advantage, as he was much stronger than his oppo- nent when the final bell sounded.
 Although defeated Moran deserves much credit for the bout that he put up against his stronger and more az eressive opponent. It was far better than any other featherweight, barring

FORD AND STONE
 PROVE BEST CARD IN ACORN A. c. SHOW
CHUNKY VETERAN BEATS STONE AND DYSON TRIMS BOSSE AT
 EAGLES, HALL.
By Wlagner.)

A fight between two hard looking citizens who appeared to be very sore at each other, WAS staged at Eagles hall, last night, under the auspices of the Acorn A. c. Bunny Ford and Fighting Dick Stone, both of New Haven, were the bruisers and they furnished g. good slam bang scrap. They went at it just like two kids mixing it up after school because one called the other the teachers pet.
 In the average bout the boxers ap pear only mildly interested in the af fair. They hug each other frequently so they can look around and count the house. Another dollar coming in the door is always welcomed by grins upon the boxers faces.
 Ford and Stone, however, attended strictly to business Ford took a. lac- gameness finished like a whirlwind, thereby gaining the decision over Stone. The bout went ten rounds. Stone was taller than Ford and had a greater reach. He landed at will in the early rounds and cut FOrds well known features badly. In the first eight stanzas things were about even-
 Ford began to see red in the ninth after he put his face in front of a few sledgehammer blows. He mutt waded into Stone. Jabbing frequent ly with his left and then bringing over right swing to the jaw, he made m sotne back up and the crowd forced the fighting to such an extent that Stone refused to mix things and danced away from Ford, that Bunny had to stand and wait for Stone to regain his nerve. Stones weight was announced as 160 and Ford's as 157.
 Young Dyson of New Bedford, Mass, gave Freddy Bosse, of this ctiy, a fancy trimming. The boys went ten rounds and Bosse was glad when it was over. His face was cut and swol-
 Dyson has a peculiar style. He dances around almost continually and then swings with both hands. There was not much steam behind the blows but they landed so often that Bosse tn ought he had been through saw mill before the battle was over. Bosse took his punishment gaIne1y and always came back for more. He planted his left on Dyson's map oc- casionally, but as general rule found his opponents defense hard to solve. Dyson was so seldom still. that he was hard to locate.
 The prelimir ary affair, an eight round go between Teddy Falbuyck and Young Perrone. was very sour. Both boys devoted so much time to cover ing Up that they did practically no hitting. Most of the blows landed on the back of the neck or on the shoulder blade. A draw would be a fair decision.
 Harry P. Quinn was given a tryout as tinekeeper, and he gave the bell a lot of punishment He had been prac- ticing for the past week by ringing up big numbers on the cash register in his merry muci1age parlors. Frank Braithwaite, the faithful announcer, had lots of speed but no control. He brought down the house when he yell ed, Gentlemen, I wish to announce that smoking will not be prohibited g That sentiment was greeted with loud cheers.

In an effort to see if he can't es- cape a trip to the Pacific Coast next season, Tommy Downey went to New York today for a conference with Manager Harry Wo1verton of the Sac ramento, Gal, club. The former New York American manager will boss the Coast League team next year and he was ela,ted when he learned that Dow ney had been traded by the Chicago Cubs for Third BaSeman Mcdonald formerly of the Boston Nationals.
 He wrote several letters to Tommy but the local boy assured Wo1verton that he had no intention of going 1, 600 miles away rom home to play ball. So Wolverton suggested that Downey come to New York and talk it over with his manager at the Victoria E1o- tel.
 Downey knows Wolverton very well. He played with Harry in the old Tri State league. He hopes to get Wolver- ton to agree to sell Or trade him. I have offers from clubs in the Inter national league and American associa- ton and I would rather play in those organizations says Downey.
