Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

James w. Beacham Jr., of Avondale,
began testing his herd of 26 COWS IN
June, 1910. The average cost OF feed
ing one COW during the first year OF
testing was $3.50 and the profit $22'93
per head. BY the end of this year he
had disposed of cows as Improbable.
AS a result during the second year of
the test, the increased value OF the
milk per cow was $72.42, while the
price of milk was only cents higher.

rivers. The evolution of present day
conditions in this section is particu-
larly important In its bearing on
highway repair and maintenance. The
rapidly increasing automobile traffic
on highways has greatly stimulated
interest in road Improvement and pro-
foundly modified methods Of construc-
ton and maintenance.
At the beginning of the year 1913.
80 per cent, or approximately 2,OOO,-
900 miles, of the roads in this coun
try were earth. The repair and proper
maintenance of earth roads are there
fore Of great Importance To pre-
serve a properly built or repaired
earth road. it has been repeatedly
demonstrated that the best method is
some system of continuous mainte-
nance. The operations involved in
maintenance are In one sense small
repairs. The economy In small re-
pairs over extensive periodic repairs
Is largely due to the fact that defects
in a road develop at an increasing
rate If allowed to continue. and the
cost of restoring the road to the nor
NAL condition is consequently made
greater than the actual sum OF the
costs of repeated minute repairs. The
splitlog drag, or some Of Its modifica-
tons. has proved beyond doubt the
best tool for earth-road maintenance

RADICAL CHANGES IN
FOOTBALL SUGGESTED
Rules Committee Will Be Asked
to Consider Eliminating
Kickoff

There is not much likelihood that
the intercollegiate football rules COM
mittee will act favorably upon more
than one of the suggestions made at
the recent annual convention of the
American Collegiate Athletic Associa
uon. The suggestions which will be
submitted to the rules committee are
as follows:
l. Numbering the players.
2. Goals from touchdown to be
kicked from the point where they
cross the line of scrimmage.
5. Abolish the kick off.
4. Forward passes made from be-
nlrd the line of scrimmage and that
are grounded become dead from the
point where the ball is thrown.
.. Increase the value of field goals
to five points
officials.
Most football men are now pretty
well convinced that for the benefit OF
the public the players should be num-
oered. No one has been able to give
a solitary reason why this should NOT
De done. The students and outside
pubic cannot follow the game intelli-
gently without such an aid. and since
1t is the gate that supports the grid
iron game the colleges certainly owe
1t to the public to give them every
consideration.
Compelling a team to kick a goal
from point in line with that where
the ball crossed the line of scrimmage
would be hardship. When a team
chooses to put out first it runs the risk
OF not being able to recover it and try
Tor the goal. If any change is to be
made in the goals from touchdown II
would be best to abolish it altogether.
The late Mike Murphy, who knew
more about football injuries and their
causes than any other coach or trainer
in his latter days was bitterly opposed
TO retaining the Kickoff He main
tanned that more players received body
bruises in these physical collisions than
In the regular scrimmages.
The whole tendency of football legis
latlon has been to reduce than to in
crease the value of field goals. It is
hard to see why the rules committee
should be asked to make two field
goals count more than a touchdown
and goal.

JUDGE GILLIAN HAS
OWN CRYPTIC METHOD
Franklin County Jurist Is Brief
in Imposing Sentence in
January Sessions

Judge Rush Gillian, of Franklin
county, who is sitting in No. court
room owing to the illness of Addi-
tional Law Judge McCarrell, has quite
way about him when he administers
the sentence of the law.
AS more than one attorney and
court attache put 1t this morning, It's
cryptic.
The first demonstration occurred
this morning when pretty Ella Wilt,
charged with larceny, was arraigneI
for sentence. Her case was held over
since yesterday afternoon while the
court investigated it, To-day he called
her before the bench. i've been
thinking over your case and have
looked into the matter pretty thor
oughly," said he. You've no need to
steal. The sentence of the court Is
that you pay fine of 81 and serve
eight months in jail
The crowded courtroom hadn't got
it's breath oyer that before Horace
Doehne, who was convicted of assault
and battery was arraigned. Il should
like" said Attorney Mehring, who
pleaded for Doehne, Ito ask that he
be given as lenient a sentence as pos
sible''

iiOhieio III jam iAh"SiSo NNoN N''i
Ian.
Tony Fellow. who was convicted of
carrying concealed deadly weapons,
was arraigned for sentenced and his
attorney, Maurice Metzger. offered
petition praying for suspension of
sentence. The court asked the district
attorney what he had to say about it.
1T isn't our custom here, your
Honor" replied Mr.. Fox, for the
court to suspend sentence by this
method"-
'Oh, rest assured answered Judge
Gillian, we're not going to suspend
sentence. Nine months in jail"
When the jury convicted Charles
Wise yesterday afternoon of felonious
entry it recommended him to the
mercy of the court. And Judge Gillian
let him off with only fifteen months.
President Judge Kunkel was an
equally busy man in No. l room
throughout the day. Most of the
morning was taken up with the trial
of Samuel Granger, charged with lar
ceny and larceny as bailee. Other
cases disposed of by the president
judge were:
George Williams, convicted of steal
ing coal; Joseph Givens, acquitted of
a charge of assault and battery upon
Edward Dickson, costs being divided;
d. Frank Radle. who was on trial yes
terday for fraudulent preference in
that he had tried to defraud creditors
through a sheriff's sale, was acquitted

What We w ant
to Do

The most natural thing to
do during these stirring times
is to neglect work and talk
war. Business may be a lit
tie slower than it ordinarily
is during the Christmas trade
but we don't care much It
gives us time to read war
news and we are apt to devote
more time to that than to new
business.
The manufacturer is devot-
ing a good part Of his time to
solving the immediate prob
lens caused by the loss Of his
supply of costly European ma
terials. He has little spirit
for future planning either for
his city or his political party.

What We Must Do

We must plan for the future and we
must plan to grow in every department Of
our commercial and industrial life. We
must realize that American industry and
American commerce have world market
which even the widest dreamers have
not conceived. We must remember that
European competition has been very large
y done away with and that the entire
field is ours now and will be even after
the European wars have closed, for the
industry and commerce Of the warning
countries will be too badly crippled to
rally Immediately.
The world demands food, clothing, inn
Elements, drugs and machinery and the
North and South American nations must
supply the demands.

What We Can Do

What can we do? We are
getting used to the situation
and we are beginning to see
that we can find many ways
around present obstacles.
We can see openings for
American industries such as
we have never seen before.
We can take advantage Of
these openings and increase
our markets when we have
solved our immediate prob
lens. We can lay our pres
ent plans for future business.
We can direct our business
thinking and effort SO that fu-
ture developments in the COM
mercial affairs of our nation
and Of our locality will not
