Cincinnati. Nov. 29.-Holding that
the employment of regular salaried
scouts to ascertain the playing quail
ties of men in the minor leagues was
overdone to such an extent that. It was
now worthless, the board of directors
of the Cincinnati National League club
decided to do away with all salaried
scouts for next season. II is the inten-
tion of the club to have men who oc-
cupy responsible positions in various
minor leagues to look after their inter-
ests in regard TO drafting OF young
players. but the men who heretofore
did nothing but travel through the
minor leagues looking for young talent

WEYAND TO LEAD
THE ARMY ELEVEN
Victorious Team Receives
Big Welcome on Return
from Philadelphia.

West Point, n. Y, Nov. 29.-The vic
torious Army football team res ched
home at 4 o'clock this afternoon and
received rousng welcome. During
the trip from Philadelphia the team
elected Alexander Weyand captain for
1915.
Weyand has played on the eleven for
the last three years. He is twenty-five
years old, and entered the academy in
1911 from the 10th Congressional Dis
year" man, having been turned back for
deficiency in studies during his third
class year. Weyand is rated as one of
the best tackles the Army ever had.
He is a giant in stature, being more
than six feet tall and weighing up
ward of 200 pounds.
Except for muscle bruises and other
slight injuries, the members Of the
eleven gave no indications of the hard
battle they had yesterday on Franklin
Field.
The usual scenes which annually
mark the Homecoming of the football
men, whether they are winners or
losers, were enacted, although, if pos
sible, with little more enthusiasm
than in the past. The entire cadet bat
talon, augmented by crowd number
ing more than a thousand persons,
largely made up Of the civilian resi-
dents of the post and vicinity, and
headed by the Military Academy band,
escorted the returning heroes to their
quarters.
The ancient stage coach in which
the members of the team rode, and
which has done duty for many years
In the same capacity, was drawn by
willing cadet hands up the long hill.
The entire repertory of football
songs was rendered by the marching
throng on its way to the barracks,
where the demonstration reached its
climax. Cheers for each player, the
coaches and the trainers were given.
The rally ended with short speech
by Captain Prichard.
A lighted transparency depicting a
prancing army mule and downcast
navy goat, bearing the figures "20
to o." significant of the score of the
game, was suspended from the Thayer
monument on the "Plains."
The men brought with them from
Philadelphia the Blue and Gold
blanket which has adorned the back
Of the Navy's mascot goat for many
years. II was carried in the baggage
car of the train, being guarded by
special detail of cadets made up of
the substitute players.

Five Confident
of a Successful Season

Fisher has a raft Of competent substi-
tutes, so that he will not be handi-
capped if any of his stars are incapaci-
tated.
Basketball will probably not pay so
well on Morningside Heights this year
as in seasons past, for the reason that
the balcony, on which more than 500
persons could be seated, has been
closed on account of the fire which
swept the upper part of the gymnasium
building early in the fall. The gymna-
sium floor, too, suffered badly, and
there are several warped spots which
may give trouble TO visiting teams. The
university authorities will make every
effort to have the floor smoothed down,
but it will not be possible to lay a new
flOor until next summer

What the War May Do for the
South

The European war may have the
effects of giving a great impetus to
diversified farming in this section of
the country. Because of the rise in the
price of meats of all kinds already
tire is talk of giving more attention
to cattle raising. In commenting on
this the New York Sun says: I'm the
midst of much loose thrashing around
about the high cost of living one prac-
teal movement is discverned. The eff
fort of the Department of Agriculture
to stimulate cattle raising in the South
has the note Of common sense"
There is no doubt that the South has
great advantages for cattle raising.
She would now be a great cattle rails
ing section if it were not for two
things. One is her adaptability to cot
ton growing and the other is the pre-
valence of the cattle tick The war
has to some extent forced down the
price of cotton because of the cutting
off of part of the cotton market, and
hence has caused farmers to think
seriously of turning their attention to
some other means of marking their
farms profitable. They know that the
cattle tick can be eliminated because
where the pest has been vigorously
and intelligently attacked it has been
eliminated, No better or more con-
vincing evidence is needed that the
tick isn't bar to the raising of cattle.
The government has undertaken to
lend helping hand in this matter.
The Department of Agriculture has
recently established a live stock farm
of five hundred acres in Louisiana, and
it will demonstrate to the farmers in
that and other, states how easy it is to
eliminate the cattle tick of to breed
cattle that are immune to the tick. 1t
proposes to put on it's louisiana affirm
Honduras cattle. They are immune to
the tick. In the course of very few
years it will be demonstrated that
there is far more profit in cattle than
in cotton,
Cotton will never be abandoned. 1t
will be wholly a money crop. The
farmers will devote portion of their
acres to it but the one crop system
will become a thing of the past. That
is a prediction that will take time to
verify, but it is a safe prediction.
Already much cotton land in Missis-
