PICKING DAYS HERE.
n-American Football Teams Will b
Chosen After Today's Battle.

New York, Nov. 28.-Following the
annual Army-Navy football game in
Philadelphia this afternoon will come
the usual selection of all-American,
the season of 1914. The adherents Of
the two United States academy teams
will await these mythical combinations
with more than usual interest this sea-
son since both the Annapolis and West
Point teams include players thought by
their admirers to be of all-American
calibre.
Last year the Army and Navy each
succeeded in placing a player on the
team considered by football followers
in general, to be the nearest approach
to an official eleven. Brown of the
Cadets team was placed at right guard
and Merillat of the Middies at right
end. This brought the total up to ten
for the period extending from 1901 to
1913 Bunker, the Army's right tackle,
and DAILY, quarterback in 1901, were the
first service players to make the all
American team. DAILY had, however.
made the teams ofs1S9S and 1899 while
playing quarter for Harvard.
In 1902 the Cadets were again repre-
sented by Bunker. who was placed at
right halfback in that year. Two years
later the Army's famous center Tip
ton was the unanimous choice Of the
experts for the position of passer back
of the ball. Three years elapsed before
an academy player was again men,
toned and then the Navy placed Dague,
eleven while Erwin. the Army's right
guard was also named. 1t was not I'M
til 1911 that the Service football men
made the all-America team again. In
that year the two academies divided
honors, Devore of the Cadets being at
right tackle and Dalton of the Navy at
fullback. AS a result the count stands
at present Army Z, Navy 3.

league were called to attend the first
session Of the leagues meeting which
opened here today. Kansas City will

the club transferred, and promised to
heartily support it. It is planned,
President Gilmore said. to build a new
park nearer the business district of
the city.
Gossips circulated the rumors that
Artie Holman, formerly with the Chi
cago and Pittsburg clubs of the Ma
tional League, probably would be the
next manager of the Brooklyn club
Magee. who recently was reported to
have jumped from the St. Louis Ma
tionals.
Committees to revise the rules and
arrange playing schedule are to be
appointed at the meeting. President
Gilmore said. He was in doubt, how
ever. about making an announcement
of the new players signed for the
coming season, as the pm had not
met with the approval OF all of the
club owners. The following club Of
ficers were scheduled to attend the
sessions:

The Small Farm Is Profitable in
Shawnee County.
Farmers Should Organize, Says
Secretary Pelham.
SHOULD have 4 SALES AGENT
Expert Market Man Would Be
Invaluable Asset.
Secretary Pelham Makes Some
Suggestions.

J. L. Pelham. secretary of the Kan.
sas State Horticultural society believes
that there are wonderful possibilities
IN small fruit and truck garden farm
Ing in Shawne county, where the own.
er can give his personal attention tt
the work. He also makes the sugges
ton that organization on the part Of
the farmers. and the employing of ar
advisor or sales agent would do much
, towards making the industry highly
profitable.
But Secretary Pelham is not the
only advocate of the sales agent idea
y. F. Whitney. a successful market
gardner Of the North side. and a prom.
inent grange man, believes that a prac.
teal market man who could tell the
farmers when and how to sell would
be of more value to Shawnee county
than a farm adviser.
Opportunity Is Great.
Il think hardly anyone realizes the
possibilities in Shawnee county," said
Secretary Pelham today. 'At the
present time the growers do not begin
to supply the local trade in berries. A
man who starts in the apple business
today with the intention of giving his
orchard personal attention and using
up-to-date methods of caring for his
trees, and handling his fruit certainly
has great opportunity to realize
good profits. am opposed to depend
ing upon hired labor.
individuals do not have time to
study market conditions, but II the
farmers would organize and employ
practical man much could be accom-
plished in the way of extending the
market. This man could keep the
farmers posted on the market demand
SO they would know what could most
profitably be grown, an6 just when
and where to market their produce.
He could also keep the wholesale men
posted on when to expect the produce.
Can More Fruit.
THE sales agent could also act as a
press agent. He could encourage the
housewives in canning more fruit and
vegetables for winter supply, advising
them when to buy.
Fruit growing and truck gardening
go hand in hand together. While a
man is waiting for his trees to develop
he can plant vegetables between the
rows and thus realize a return. There
are great possibilities for small growers
around Topeka"

the session of the fOrty-eighth annual
