Every drop OF water is rich in this

other elements that are Of SO much
value to the growing crops.
The average manure In the spring,
before teaching or decomposition has

to SO per ton; allowed to remain In
the yard until fall, it is worth barely a
third Of that price.
In our calculations we have left the
sanitary aspect out Of consideration.
There should be nothing more sanitary

the foul. filthy yards that are so COM

Many fine horse has been ruined

THE ROSE OF YEsTERYEAR."
-Warner Eeafnre-

This elaborate story, which is ar
tistically worked out with a care for
details that makes the unusual com
plications clear is based on the prob
lem of mixed identities With the I'M
expected results arising. II is set
forth in the form of the Renaissance
of the woman of middle age who has
lost her romance, and the film is the
story of her past life, which she re-
lates to her young niece. Miss Marion
Leonard Is featured as the heroine,
acting her role with careful emotional
Interpretation that holds the obsery-
er's attention closely.
Years before two babies were
brought to founding home,
brother and sister, whose relationship
was sustained only by the two similar
pairs of shoes and their two little
plaid shawls. They were adopted by
two families. each departing with the
baby, the shawl and the shoes. The
baby boy was taken by minister
and his wife, and on the way out the
little shoes were dropped Another
baby had been chosen by wealthy
family, soon after THE little boys
adoption, and on going down the
steps the shoes were noticed and
picked up under the impression that
they belonged to their baby. When
the minister and his wife reached
their home they missed the small
shoes and fastened to gather up the
missing link in the evidence as soon
as possible, going back to the home TO
try to discover the shoes. Since the
shoes had disappeared absolutely the
matron wrote note connecting
the identity between the two children
by means of the shawls. which the
boys foster father took away with
him.
Years passed until the babies were
grown into youth, when the compli-

cations of personalities worked havoc
in their happiness. The girl, the fos-
ter child of wealth, was beautiful and
beloved by a splendid young fellow
whose affections she returned, He
was founding child, too--in fact,
the third one that had been adopted
after the brother and sister, so closely
ran the chain of coincidence, and his
well-to-do foster mother was most
anxious to urge upon him a marriage
with another girl which would bring
them a large fortune.
The other girl was as eager as the
mother, and between them they used
every variety of persuasion in their
power. The girl knew of the man S
antecedents and the slender thread of
Identification established by the small
shoes in his mothers possession. one
day she visited the chosen sweetheart
in order to protest against the pro-
posed marriage and to tell her how
much more it would profit the man
to marry where the fortune lay, and
found her caressing a small pair of
shabby shoes, the exact mates OF
those in the possession of the mans

1.-THE Message in the Rose"
Edison.

Love, as well as roses, was bloom
ing in this particular florist shop,
where Miss Mary was the charming
daughter of the proprietor and Joe
was his efficient assistant. That was
how it happened that one day when
Mary almost hidden in tangle of
the flowers, was caressing an espe-
cially beautiful bloom, Joe kissed her.
On the spur of her startled amaze
ment she repulsed him coldly, and
the very tender-hearted Joe turned
away, cut to the quick. While Mary
rushed to her room and eXulted in
her joy in the discovered affection,
Joe went to her father and gave up
his Job. To make up for her chilly
reception Mary hastily scrubbed the
four words, II love you, Joe" and
tucked the note in the heart of the
rose she had been admiring at the
time of the kiss, expecting Joe to f1nd
1t and understand.
After she had left the rose room
her father clipped vase of the
choicest f1owers-among them the one
containing the note-and took them
into the shop. A young man came IN

Forward Pass Is H. Declares Coach of Champion Auburn
DONAHUE SAYS LET FOOTBALL RULES ALONE

every six or seven years.
1t is very probable that Yale miss
ed a beautiful chance for a touch
Gown in the third period of the Yale
Harvard game last fall. In the be-
ginning of this period Yale started
the running game like a. Whirlwind,
and had Harvard up in the air. The
team gave a splendid exhibition of
what the offense may do under the
present rules in an advance of some
thing like 60 yards, but when they
approached Harvard's goal line the
old idea cropped out that there was
no way of scoring unless by a drop
kick.
No idea of rislIng a forward pass
or using the last down in a running
attack for a possible touchdown. Not
only that, but as the team had the
ball to one side of the field, all the
downs were used with the idea of
getting into position for that kick.
This was exactly what Harvard ex-
pected, and played accordingly II
looked like a splendid opportunity
not taken advantage of.
TAKE, for instance, two other very
successful teams, Michigan and
Carlisle, and 1t Is in this respect that
they differ from Yale or Harvard.
Neither of these teams used the ac-
tual forward pass so much but used
1t more as a threat to give their run
ming game a chance, and they were
| always after touchdowns. If a kick
formation was used 1t was more apt
to be q fake. 1t seems to me that
these teams used the forward pass in
its true proportion to the modern
game With a strong punch to their
attack, the forward pass was always
held as a. threat to give this punch
chance to be effective.
Teams like Pennsylvania that used
the open attack entirely-forward
pa sses double passes, delayed passes
were not very successful against a
wide awake end well-coached defense.
Even at that, such a game is more at
tractive than one made up entirely of
punting with the hope that somebody
will make an error and give some
specialist who may not have many
of the qualities that make the game
attractive a chance to boot 1t over the
bar and win the game.
7 n the South, unhampered by tradf-
ton of any kind, all sorts Of foot
ball was seen, and perhaps the most
interesting game in the country, as
well. Limitations of material has a
decided influence on the kind of game
PLAYED in most Southern colleges
Kicking did not play any very impor-
tant part, but almost everything else
did.
Some teams used the open running
game entirely, and as a result ran
themselves out in the last part of the
game, while others mixed 1t more or
less. But the main point is that the
South is well satisfied with the pres
ent game and with its possibilities
