defeated Dartmouth, 2A to ", at
Princeton yesterday. Three four ball
matches were played, and the Jersey

the first two. Fay and Washburn
were up on d'Ancona and leighton

pair pulled up, and Washburn had to
hole hard put on the home green to
win the match but missed, and the
match ended all square. 1t was not
played off, as Princeton had won the
other two matches.

In direct contradition to the per-

Low Scores the Rule.

In late years the scores of Dart
mouth Princeton games, with one ex-
ception, have been close. In 1912 the
Tigers gave Dartmouth a good old
fashioned tanning to the tune of 22-7.
In 1909 the elevens played a 6-6 draw
and in 1911 Princeton won by the slim
margin of a fluke field goal, netting
three points Indications this year,
however, are that this rule of low
scoring will be broken and points will
not be at such premium. The scores
of past Dartmouth-Princ games
follow: 1897. Princeton 30, Dartmouth
o. 1908, Princeton II, Dartmouth 0;

we stand united we fall is our
motto. If seven members were will
ing to join the regulars and one were
not, there would be no peace. We are
not looking for peace, and We did not
come here to talk peace. Indirect
offers have been made to some Of our
leading clubowners, but not one of
them will desert the Federal League
or has ever considered it. There are
too many angles to a possible peace
agreement to even begin to discuss 1t.

Wolcott while speaking before the Commercial
Club last winter.
But Wayne Countys superiority in this re-
gard does not lessen the need of the state as a
whole for better system of assessment, con-
tention which was ably supported by State Tax
Commissioner Dan NJ Link at the state tax con-
ference held at Indianapolis on February 5th.
His utterance in this connection reported by
the Indianapolis News follows:
"Mr. Link laid special stress on the fact that
the state tax commission does not have and that
it should have adequate supervision of assess
ments. There can never be adequate supervis-
ion of assessments without control of assessors,
he declared and he showed that now these Off
Gals are answerable to no one but the persons
they assess and under the influence of every
kind of local interest, pull and favoritism. He
showed what he regarded the ridiculous side
of the present system under which assessments
have to be made by men who receive two dollars
for short period of sixty or ninety days. What
sort of assessment would you expect under such
conditions he asked. He insisted that this i'm
portant work should be made skilled vocation
and that inasmuch as tax is essentially func-
ton of the state the assessors should be under
the direction of the state.'

The Penal Farm

Local people have even more reason than 9TH
er Indanans to feel proud of the fact that state
penal farm is certainty and well the
way toward realization. 1t was the Richmond
Commercial Club that first launched the move
ment and later manned the efforts to have it
enacted law. Richmond people, therefore,
have right to feel certain proprietary interest
in the undertaking.
The commission appointed to purchase the
site, of which DR.. S. E. Smith of Easthaven was
a member, succeeded in getting three times as
much acreage as the state legislature had antici-
pated and at cost 900 less than the sum pro-
vided for in the appropriation. This fortunate
economy it is to be hoped anticipates an equal
efficiency in the FARMS management.
The penal farm marks a new epoch in In
diana's penitentiary system and places the state
equarely among those progressive common
wealths which recognize the newer principles of
penology. prisoner the penal farm will not
be made blindly to suffer, which can only be-
numb and brutaze, but will be taught by deed,
as we'll as word, how to become normal member
of society. The old crimnology advocated retail
iation: the new criminoogy stands for transfer
nation. The state penal farm is in harmony
with the new.

GOVERNMENT SUPERVISION OF GRAIN SOUGHT
In BILL NOW PENDING BEFORE CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, May 8.-One OF the
most far reaching bills introduced in
Congress at this session for the bet
terment of the condition of the farmer
provides for uniform grading of grain.
Included in the bill is a specification
that the term grain shall apply to
corn, wheat, oats, barley, rye spelt,
emmer. rough rice. milled rice, flax
seed and buckwheat and kaffir, milo,
durra and every other sorghum In
general. it provides for government
supervision of the quality of grain
The bill, with some amendments pro-
posed by the Grain Dealers National
association, will probably be passed
by the House.
Among other things. the bill author
ICES the Secretary of Agriculture to in
vestigate the handling, grading and
transportation of. and to fix the stand
ards and quality of grain. Variations
from the official grain standards are
permitted under such regulations as
the secretary shall prescribe, but no
person, shall sell or agree to sell any
grain as being of any grade other than
grade fixed by the official standards
of the United States.
Inspection and examination of the
grades of grain is provided for. The
amendment suggested by the grain
dealers association asks that this in
spection be conducted by state offic-
ers who also are federal inspectors so
that interstate shipments of grain will
be subject to the penalties of the act
as we'll as those in interstate COM
merce.
The suggestion made by the grain
dealers is held to be of such merit
that Representative Lever, of South
Carolina, author of the grading bill.
declared that it should be incorporated
in the bill
During the examination of witnesses
| who appeared before the committee, it
developed that not more than 40 per
! cent of the grain leaves the state
where grown. The effect of the
amendment, therefore, is plain. 1t
means, declared A. E. Reynolds, one of
the grain dealers of Indiana, that
| every bit of grain grown in the United
| States will be subject to inspection by
| the United States Government.
