Out of the large squad Of recruits
who will report to Coach Fielding
Yost at Michigan next fall, Freshman
Coach Prentiss Douglass picks three
of his 1914 squad as being sure to make
the team. Douglass picks Jack Dun to
step in Bobby Hughitt's shoes as
quarterback. Dunn isn't very big, but
possesses a lot of football brains and
is durable under fire. Pat Smith, full
hack on the freshman team this yea
is said to be a player of the Carp Jul
ian type. Smith weaighs 100. He rips
up the line in apout the same manner
as the Aggie terror. Ewart, big line

That football coach, to produce the

his views on the future coaching Ss-

mean the latter part of this week be-
fore the steamer shows up in this port.

for the steamers delay.

FARMERS EAGER
FOR RECIPROCITY
Other Interests in Canada. Oppos
ed to Repeal of Duty on
Wheat

Winnipeg, Oct. 1.--Farmers of the
Canadian west are unanimous that
the duty Of 25 cents a bushel on
wheat going to the United States
should come off, ltart in that opinion
they stand alone outside Of the sup.
port they are receiving from repre-
hsentatives Of United States grain and
milling firms on the grain exchange.
The Canadian mil!ers and the Cana
dian railway companies are bitterly
opposed to it. The grain trade is
almost unanimous against ii Snd tae
present Canadian government, vita
it's high tariff policy and with big
war expenditures to face, will moi
likely think Of taking eff any duties.
70 Cents Only to Farmers.
But the farmers have a tremendous
crop of wheat on their hands and
they intend to let 90 Of it as soon as
possible. The price at present is bW;
70 cents 70 the farmer. The amount
| going over the line is growing gra-
! dually less as the price OF Minneapo
lis and Duluth drops nearer to the
| Canadian figure. But there is still
a difference in favor of the UniteG
| States market of from 10 to II cent?
! over the quotation at Fort William,
Canadian wheat has been CROSSING:
| tie line for Minneapolis and Duluth
mills. One day recently the Great
Northern transported 250;0G5 bush
| els, on every lbushel OF which, c:
course, the 25 cents duty was paid.
Matheson Speaks for Trace.
w. A. Matheson, general manager
Of the Lake OF the Woods Milling
| company, expresses the opinion Of
| The grain and milling companies in
the following:
81 cannot believe the Dominion
government will take the duty off
wheat. It would he entirely against
k..he wishes of the Canadian people.
At the last general election the west
| spoke emrhalically on tAis subject
when they defeated the l.aurie1
Nyoverlment, and put in the Borden
government, on tlis very question.
Western Miller Would Suffer.
"Reoiprccity on wheat between
|lUnited States and Canada wculd
| place the western miller in a very
| bad position. We are in "a different
position to the Dig millers in Mime
| apolis,, Buffalo and the mills east OF
Fort William. We must secure our
years supply Of Wheat before Chris
mas and hold it back in the interio:
elevators To keep our mills running
the year round. The other mills men.
toned can get their wheat supply
from the big elevator companies from
day TO day as they require it. You
Iknow the railway companies will
Egive a much better rate Of flour for
export, thereby enabling the big mills
in the United States to make a du mp.
ing ground Of Canada. In their dom
este market they have 100000, 1000
people to feed, while we have only
100000 to 8,0OO,000.
For many years we knocked at
the door of u american cousins
for admittance on a free trade basis,
but they turned a deaf ear every time
until now, when they think it is to
their advantage to let us in.
II cannot see taat removing the
duty from wheat would benefit our
farmers in any way. After all, the
surplus from both United States and
Canada is to be exported to Ores;
Britain and Liverpool prices would
govern in both cases." E .

Minneapolis, Oct. 1.-The follow
Ing resume of business conditions
has Just been sent out by John II,
Rich, fedora! reserve aren't:
The outlook in the Ninth district
for a fair crop of corn Of merchant
able quality has been considerably
impaired by slow progress during
September. Weather conditions have
been such that the crop has not made
the progress that was expected and
there will be a very large amount OF
soft corr and fodder, which farmers
will have 70 stack or utilize for en-
silage. Flax has made good progress
in the portions of the district where
it is an important crop and a consid'
cradle amount has been cut. The
yields will be very good. T%hreshing
is generally in progress and the re.
ports from the machines bear out the
earlier predictions of heavy yields of
all small grains. Business is gener'
ally good and is responding favorably
to the conditions created by an excel
lent harvest. A smaller amount OF
grain is moving to market than at
this time a year ago and there is a
considerable shortage OF receipts at
terminals. Early shipments are be-
ing absorbed by the milling and 9th
er demands, and a general movement
is not anticipated for ten days or two
weeks. There has been some inter
ference with %threshing due to rain
which with the ~lateness of the crop,
accounts for sluggish shipments up
to this time.

Business conditions over the state
generally are very satisfactory. Col,
lections are improving and the de-
mand for money is about normal
with rates maintaining about the
same level as a month ago. Thresh'

gress throughout the state and the
good yields give promise of better
than a normal retail trade through
