RINe-MAT AND GENERAL ITEMS

al miscues of the Crimson. Casey had day off and, barring one great run through the Yale line for an apparent touchdown, failed to gain much ground for his team. The ball was called back on Casey's long run and Harvard was penalized for holding. The Harvard star never broke loose again.
 Legore for Yale had a great day. He and Neville were the backbone of the Yale offense, while Yale's strong line and alert ends were too much for the Harvard attack. Harvard's score was made on field goal in the first period, while Yale won the game with q touchdown by Neville in the second.
 The crowd began to pour into the city almost before breakfast time.
 Eighty thousand persons, lacking few hundred, considered them selves fortunate in having obtained seats from among the 100000 who had applied for reservation within the bowl. In all the contests be- tween the Blue and the Crimson there has never been q time when the spectators promised to be so great feature off the field of play. They came from hotels where men of social standing and wealth spent the night in uncertain rest on lounges, chairs, pool tables and mattresses laid upon the floors from sleeping cars on railroad sid ings, from automobiles which stretched along the city streets and from trolley cars and railroad trains which brought tens of thousands.
 Yale supporters-and they out numbered those of Harvard by some SO,OOC for the first time in years looked to the game with confidence of victory. They sought odds in their wagering generally at to 10, but many instances of equal bet ting were reported. Harvard's en- thusiasts placed absolute reliance in their team.

Muff Bronson Is Now Champ.

Muff Bronson Is Now Champ.
 Nun Bronson, of Portland. is the new featherweight boxing champion of the Pacific Coast. He won the title in a fast six-round bout from Lee Johnson. the Oakl- and, Cal, boy at Portland last Friday night, Nov. 24th. Further more, there wasn't any town prej- udice that gave Bronson the vic- tory and the title. It was as clean-cut as any win ever register ed.
 This sensational Portland school boy, who won the Pacific Northwest title from Joe Harrahan in Seattle several weeks ago by knocking out the title-holder. and then knocked out Leo Houck, as the first chal- lenger for the title, has shown that he possesses not only a lot of ring cleverness, but also holds a terrific kick beneath the padded gloves.
 Three times the negro boy from California was knocked down by Bronson. Johnson didn't win that old title without the use of a good head, and that head was working in the Portland bout. His knowl- edge of the game saved him the knockout punch that Muff was working SO hard to put over.
 Jack Grant, of national reputa- ton as a boxing referee, was the third man in the ring at Portland. He was the choice of both boys, in preference to selection of three judges. Grant didn't hesitate a minute about awarding the decision to Muft Bronson. The boys weighed in at l25 pounds.

season,s Results Change Big

Nine.
 Sweeping changes in the makeup of the 1917 football schedule of the Big Nine" probably will be made as a result of the upsets of the 1916 season.
 The so-called Big Four" of the Western conference - Minnesota, Chicago, Wisconsin and Illinois - are declared to have held sway in the notwithstanding in previous years, leaving Ohio State. North western. Indiana, Purdue and Iowa to shift for themselves.
 Ohio State, which won the con ference championship by defeating Northwestern, probably will demand ia more imposing list of games for next season.
 Chick" Hartley Stars.
 The playing of Chick Hartley, the dashing right halfback or the ohio State eleven, whose sensation al work spelled defeat for North western in the title game, stamps him as an eligible candidate for al-American honors, in the opinion of the Western critics.
 Although the Minnesota eleven may not have a claim to a cham pionship title. close followers of the gridlron sport are agreed that the team is one of the greatest football machines developed in the West in years.
 The line attack of the eleven in its game with Chicago was an at- tack of eleven men in every play. each doing the exact thing expect ed of him. The 49 to O defeat of Chicago was the worst the Maroons have ever suffered.

TELLS HOW TO WRITE ADS
Forget Yourself, Pe Honest and
Use Good Pictures, Says
University, Advertis-
ing Instructor.

Four definite rules for writing
Advertisements for newspapers
we're recently outlined by ]. B.
Powell, instructor in advertising
in the University of Missouri at
Columbia, in speech before the
Iowa Retail Luribermen's Asso-
citation. Mr.. Powell said:
I. Forget about yourself-your
customers are not Interested in you
until you have demonstrated you
are worth while.
q Pick out definite person in
your community whose trade you
desire and write your ad directly
at that person. If you interest
him you will interest hundreds of
Others.
g. Talk in your advertisement
just as you would talk if the pros
pective customer were in your
store. Be honest, for exaggera-
tions do not influence persons any
more, not even in circus ads.
4. Use plenty of good pictures
in your ads, for a picture of new
spring suit will tell more than u
page of description.
Mr.. Powell said these rules for
writing advertisements were Of as
much Importance to farmers in
the sale of their products through
advertisements in the local news
papers. as they'were to merchants
in selling their merchandise. He
also said that if these rules are
followed it makes it much easier
for customers to do their buying
for they can quickly look over
their newspapers and choose the
merchandise they are interested in

Fall Freshening.

BY far more COWS freshen in the
spring than in the fall. Why?
There is no good reason. There
are plenty of good reasons why
cows should freshen in the fall.
The fall freshened COW yields her
greatest flow in winter. 1t is then
that milk and butter fat sell high.
er. There is less work on the farm
in winter than in the summer.
This affords time to give the COW
the best Of care; time to study the
COW; time to prepare efficient,
economical ratiuns; time to weigh
and test the milk she yields; time
to really learn how best to secure
large. economical production and
make money from cows.
More time is available for feed
ing and caring for the calves and
raising them we'll. Then when
spring comes they are ready to go
on pasture and grow with no extra
work except giving them little
grain twice day.
Cows will certainly give more
milk during the winter without re-
curing much more feed than
though they freshened in the
spring. Then when spring comes
with its warm rays of sunshine, re-
freshing showers. green grass and
balmy air. the cows 60 on pasture
in good condition and, though
stale in milk, their flow is re-
juvenated nearly as though they
had freshened again, and they
yield we'll until midsummer. They
can then 60 dry without occasion
ing much loss, for harvest is on
we need our time, milk is cheap,
pastures are bare, heat intense
fliesipesky, and cows do not give
much milk under these conditions.
Anyway. it is hard to milk cows
before and after hard days work
in the harvest field, and besides,
cows need a rest.
When the busy summer is oveI
they freshen again just as the fall
pastures become good, when the
hay, grain and silage are ready &c
feed and when the price of milk
and butterfat starts upward.
Many great economic gains are
made. The cow gives more

Jump IN AUTO LICENSES
Machines Increasing Vastly or
Law is More Closely Observed.

Either the automobile registra-
ton law has been more closely OBJ

machines this year, or there has
been vast increase in the number
of new machines in Missouri.
Two months of the current reg
istration year have elapsed and on
April I, oS,671 automobiles had
been registered and licensed. This
is double the number licensed for
the first two months of last year,
and but 5000 less than the total
number for the year expiring on
February I, 1916.
For March the registrations were
double the number for March, 1918.
Of the number registered up tc
