CHEMISTS REPORT

The everincreasing desire on
the part Of the public to secure
definite knowledge relative to its
food supply has resulted in an
ever-increasing amount Of work
for this department.
We believe this desire points
uner,ingly toward tho time Of
better foodstuffs, and that the
tide is setting in the right direc-
ton il evidenced by the demand
for information-not about the
bad-but rather about tho good.
The public interest seems cen.
tered moro upon hearing the
name and maker Of an honest
brand Of goods, than in knowing
what the dishonest brand con-
tains.
I. Rather than give space to do
scribing tho many harmful pre-
servatives and adulterants found
in foodstuffs during the past year.
we prefer to submit q detailed
list Of high grade. pure. honest
food products that arc worthy Of
honorable mention;
2 1t must be distinctly under
stood that this list does not rep
resent all pure foods. although it
cover, almost all advertised
brands of foods having national
distribution.
). 1t is the beginning Of what We
hope will some day result In
complete classification of !, all
foods sold.

all. The fighting in the Central Car
pathians has been proceeding for
about a month. The Austrians and
Germans have been forced to aban-
don their advance lines on the
Galician side of the mountains, but
they have not been driven clear of
the passes. None of the passes
through which railways run is yet
in full possessions of the Russians.
Under the circumstances, the lack
of persistence, which is so grave q
military fault, with the Slavs can
almost inevitably be counted upon
to make itself felt. There was much
encouragement to Russia's Western
Allies when the Przemsyl Army was
sent to the Carpathians instead of
being used for an isolated adventure
toward Cracow. It must have been
felt at London and Paris that the
Russians at last were learning how
to concentrate their forces for a
main offensive, instead of dividing
their masses into impotent units.
Now, however, the news from Bulk
owina will probably cast gloom over
the British and French Governments.
It seems to suggest even under the
most favorable criticism that the
Russians either are firing of the at
tack in the Carpathians, or are once
more beginning to ramble. If this
should prove to be untrue, and if the
Slavs were to move through the Gen.
trail Carpathians and at the same time
re-establish themselves in Bukowina
none would be more agreeably sur
prised than Russia's Allies in the
west.

Greece has large colonies in Asiatic
Turkey, especially at Smyrna. In ad-

BOTH HARVARD AND

l Both Harvard and Yale lose heavily
 by graduation this year and in both
 camps the captaincy is in doubt. The
 difference is that Harvard will have 1 left team which, at some points of
 Saturday's game, was beating Yale
 while Yale will have to build up again from nothing. That is the, difference between a system and no system. liar yard will have seven first string men, 1 Mahan, King and Watson from the l backfeld Wallace, Parson, Soucy and 1 Cowan from the line. Of the other
 men who played against Yale, R. !! Curtis, Weatherhead. Rollins, McRin- lock, Whitney and Doherty will grad Iuate. Hart Dudmun and Boles are be ing mentioned as likely candidates for captaincy. They are the only
 survivors of the team as it started the game.
 yard football player. having come from Tufts a year ago. His chief aim is that he will be a senior next year. BoIes and Hart will be juniors and while a junior captain is not un- known he is a rarity. Taylor has had
 first claim over Cowan most of the year and may become a contender Tor
 the leadership next year.
 Vale loses thirteen men who won the ''Y'' Saturday. Capt. Wilson, Hig- ginb otham, Jim Sheldon, Guernsey, Way, White, Savage, Won Ro1dts Wal den, Miller, Conroy, Chatfield, Taylor, and Roberts. There is some talk that Charlie Sheldon, the tackle may re- turn next year. He is being mentioned for the captaincy and this may have something to do with it. It will be remembered after the election went to Wilson last year Carroll Knowles
 failed to carry out his expressed in
 tention to return this year
 Wiedemann, who has made the best
 record at end of this season, but was put out by injuries in the Princeton game may return next/fall. The. choice of captain will not be an easy one, Black who has played a fine game at guard sinceehe got into it this season, will be a senior and will have that ad-' vantage. Bingham, will be a senior in Shelf, though this is his first varsity season and has been limited, through scholarship deficiencies to the last three games. This condition would ordinarily bar him from consideration by his mates, but, the situation may upset precedent. It seems to be the impression that the choice lies be- twene Black and Sheldon Van Most rand will be only a junior and has not shown particular qualifications for leadership Gates is another sopho- more who might be considered
 Ittis true that he has been a sub stitute but he has played in most Of the games and has displayed marked aegressiveness and skill. He seems or the stuff of which great tackles are made. His lack of weight has hand1- capped hirp and ie may. be that he does not bosses the mental qualities requisite for the position At any rate the situation is a complex one and fraught with possibilities since, on next years captain will rest much of the responsibility for choosing Yale's future course.

GIANT MAGNATE
 ADMITS MEETING
 WITH FED OWNER

New York, Nov. 24.-Harry N. Hampstead, president of the Giants, admitted yesterday that he held a re- cent conference with Harry Sinclair, the Oklahoma oil rnagnate ,whO is backing the Newark Fderals, and who since the death of Robert B. Ward of the Brooklyn club is the leading ''anger' in the Fed corral. Colonel Jacob Ruppert, president of the Yan- kees, also attended the conference.
 When it was reported few weeks ago that Sinclair was dickering for the purchase of the Giants as one of the big moves to bring about baseball peace there were strenuous denials from the Giant officials, who insisted thai the club was not for Sale; that there. had been no conferences, and that no offer had been received for a controlling interest in the Giants.
 When asked yesterday the date of the confidence, President Hem pstead replied, "Oh, we met a few days ago" However, as Ruppert has been at French Lick for several weeks the con- ference must have been held some time near election.
 When asked what the conference was about, Hem pstead replfed:.e'I will not try to deceive you;itwe did not discuss the war or talk about the weather, but we discussed the entire baseball situation" = t < Did you pface-a price on the club, g Hempstead next was asked.
 'sfWe talked just baseball was the reply.
 tsDid Sinclair specify any sum that he would give for the Giants?'' was thee next question put to Hem pstead, but his reply was the same, we only talked baseball 8 #
 Hampstead reiterated his recent statement that the club was not for sa1e,s and that conditions were identi- cal with the. way things stood a. year ago He further said that there would be no more additional meetings be- tween himself and the Oklahoma mill lionaire
