MANY SURPRISES
ON The CRID|R0N
Defeat of Yale and Michigan
and Harvard's Tie Upset
Championship Dope.
WOLVERINE MEET HARVARD
Michigan Prepares for Most important
Game on 1914 ScheduIe-SmaI
Schools Have Chance.

The defeat of Yale by Washington
and Jefferson, the victory of Syracuse
over Michigan, and the tie game be.
tween Harvard and Penn State were
the three most important features OF
Saturdays football games, the result
of which changed the championship sit
uation in the east and west.
II was known that Washington and
Jefferson would give Yale hard game,
but few persons believed the eleven
representing this college with an en-
rollment of about 800 would triumph
over the blue. Because of it's victory
over Notre Dame, Yale doomed up as a
championship contender. Defeat elimi-
mates the chance of any undisputed
claim.
Washington and Jefferson is en-
titled to figure in the eastern race.
Beaten by Harvard by only single
point, the team must be given consid-
Grafton at the close of the season if it
does not meet defeat in its remaining
contests.
Hard Games Hurt Michigan.
Michigan's defeat can be attributed
in part to its hard schedule. The
Wolverines have had to play hard foot
ball all season and the strain of con-
stalnt training and practice has left the
men in demoralized condition. Com
ing right on top of the defeat by SYRIA
cuse is the game with Harvard on Sat
urday at Cambridge. AS the Wolver
ines have been pointed to this contest
since the season opened, they may play
better football against the Crimson
than they have at any time this sea
son.
The defeat by Syracuse, however, de-
tracts from the interest of the intersec-
tional struggle with Harvard. 1t is to
be regretted that the west will meet
the best team in the east with an
deed, the 1914 Michigan eleven cannot
be said to be as strong as other ag-
in this section of the coun-
try.
Finds Penn State Tartar.
Harvard struck a snag in Penn
State, which played the Cambridge
eleven to standstill in all depart
ments. Like Washington and Jeffer-
son. the Quaker train is unusually
strong this season and must be given
at the close of the sea
son when championship laurels are
awarded.
Princeton showed decided improve
ment by beating Dartmouth, 16 to II.
The result shows the Tigers should be

Acting Like a Protective Tariff.

| When the great wars in Europe be-
gan the American people found them
selves cramped financially-cramped
with plenty of resources. The trou-
BILE was the people had been buying
from European cOuntries-buying
more than they Immediately paid for
Just before the war American people
were purchasing the products OF Eu-
rope with a more liberal hand than
at any other period. Americans
were in Europe to a greater number
care-free lives. We were like a man
who is going into debt. While he is
going in he is having a good time;
he finds it more difficult to get out.
When the intercourse between our
selves and European people came 70
an end the Europeans wanted a
settlement. The balance was against
US. II you ever ran trade ac-
count" you will remember that when
ever the other man thought you owed
him, or when there was balance in
his favor, he was anxious for a set
Element. While the balance was IN
your favor he was willing to continue
the trade. The Americans have Just
gone through this experience with
European people, They said TO US,
Hand over the gold" To use
Billy Sundayism, they said. Come
across" Our bankers said we could
not spare the gold. Hence the set
Element was postponed. II is hang
ing fire yet. We have been afraid
to inaugurate our reserve bank sys-
TEN for fear that Europe would try
to get at our gold reserve These
conditions are all due TO purchasing
abroad what ought to have been
manufactured and sold at home. But /
the American spirit for home trade
was dead. II had been rocked to
sleep by the Free-Traders. The !
American treasury was empty in a |
sense. Therefore. we were not inde-
pendent, we were dependent.
Germany, during the past fifty
years,h has had high Tariff; has been
and selling; has treasured
her own resources; has made it al
most crime to buy anything not
made in Germany. Germany is rich
because OF her "full-handed" man
ner of conducting business. This

$4,000 tons of water. Most impor-
tant of ALL perhaps, is the fact that
she has a triple coating of armor be-
low the waterline.
THAT and other features which
it would be improper to reveal make
her practically immune from any eX-
listing torpedo or mine. That is. she
may be badly damaged by an explo-
sive below the water line. but she
cannot be sunk by one. Her fuel is
oil exclusively, no coal being used
aboard her except for culinary pur-
poses.

J, OF A, OFFERS HELP
 TO ARIZONA FARMERS
Advice Can Be Had By Writing to Officials of the Agri-
 cultural College.

INCSON. Dec 1-The AgriCultur- al Demonstration Train, operated by the University of Arizona College of Agriculture Extension Service and the railroads of the state Is now touring Northern Arizona. At every stop large and enthusiastic crowds are greeting the train and are losth to allow it to depart for the next stop This brings out the one thing which this train should teach the farmers. and that is that they can secure much more of the same sort of information as the train brings by applying to the place from which the train comes, namely: The University of Arizona College of Agriculture. It is impossible for the staff and exhibits of the Agricultural Demonstration Train to give any more than taste of the good things which the University has for the farmers Of the state Go those who visit the train. However if the farmers of the various localities are sufficiently interested, they may easily, and without expense to themselves, secure more detailed information and personal attention from the Agricultural Extension Ser vice of the University. By sending a letter or post card to the University at Tucson, interested farmers may se- cure literature, answers to special questions, personal visits from the treyeliHa farm advisors of the Agri- cultural Extension Service, special . lectures, farmers institutes, and the like. Desirable acclimated high yielding seeds and plants are occasion ally distributed by the College Of Az riculture and the Agriculture Expert ment Station to farmers who will make proper use of them, and inform nation may be had as to where good strains of purebred livestock may be obtained

 According to Dr. y. TT. Wright, local United States weather observer, the rainfall in Douglas SO far this year has been l75 inches. This is the larg. est precipitation in 24 years, so far as records have been kept, except in 1905, when it was 2O7O inches and in 1896. when it was 214S inches.
