Dame Squad VIII Leave for West Point on Th1rsda,
START WORKOUTS
FOR ARMY CAME
Harper Gives N. D. Squad
Light Workout But Prom
iSeS GriIIing Today.

Light practice was the order on
Cartier field last night in the first
Of the final workouts in prepare
ton for next Saturdays game with
the Army at West Point
. The three varsity elevens were
sent thrS ugh long signal drills and
the first squad was dismissed before
the second and third string men
were allowed to leave the field.
One change was noticeable in the
first team lineup. Butch" Whipple,
regular right end, who was kept
out OF the wabash game because
Of a recent injury, was put on the
first eleven again. Whipple could
have played Saturday had II been
necessary, but Coach Harper de-
cided to keep him out of the con-
test.
Tom King. who started Saturdays
fray at risn: end. was placed on
the second team yesterday. King
PLAYED good football Saturday and
he will be a valuable substitute.
Jack Meagher. the sophomore who
divided up the work at right end
with King Saturday, handled the
left end position on the second
eleven yesterday. Meagher has been
improving steadily and his work in
the Wabash contest caused many
favorable remarks.
Yesterdays light workout was
simply a forerunner TO what will
be given the men today and tomor-
row. The work was of a limbering
up nature. just enough to allow the
players TO get the stiffness out of
their muscles and get into the swing
again.
The Notre Dame squad will leave
for West Point Thursday noon. The
men will arrive in the east in time
for a light workout Friday noon.
Coach Harper announced yester-
day that there will be a scrimmage
both today and tomorrow. 1t is
likely that the freshmen and second
and third string men will be pitted
against the regulars in the differ
ent workouts.
The Hoosier squad is in excellent
shape. Every man who partici-
pated in Saturdays game. with the
exception of Grover Malone, was
out in a suit yesterday and none
of them showed any i'll effects from
the game. Malone was painfully
injured in the Wabash contest, but
he will probably be back i'm shape
before long.
While activities are going on here
i'm preparation for the Army con-
test, the soldier boys are drilling
strenuously with the determination
of walloping Harper's men. Notre
Dame and the Army have met three
times. The gold and blue has won
two games and the cadets have
taken the HoOsiers into camp
once. Next TO the Navy contest,
the Notre Dame game is the most
locked forward to on the Army
schedule and the interest in the
annual fray with the Hoosiers APP
proaches closely that which is at
tached to the battle with the Mid
dies.

of the matter. The fact is that just
above these seepy places where the
ruts are, there is a vein of hard clay
coming out, which the water cannot
readily penetrate. Hence 1t comes out
under the roadbed, just as a slough
comes out on the side of hill.
The remedy for this is tile drainage,
and the drain should not be located
in the seepy place, but above it, so as
to intercept the water that makes the
seep. Just on the same principle that
in draining slough with many
branches and prongs, the work is done
best by thing around the prongs and
into the slough below at the lowest of
them, instead of in the middle of it.
For whenever water gets into slough,
the damage is done. The point is to
keep it from getting in.
A little attention to this, together
with dragging the road after every
rain, will give us fairly good roads
dirt roads without any hard surfacing
OF course, when these seepy places
are drained, they must nave often
into which the water can run.
Permit us to repeat once more a
statement we have been making ever
since we made our first address on
good roads, 80 years ago: that wa
ter uncontrolled is the cause of bad
roads; that there are two kinds of
water, so to speak; the under water
and the upper water. The under water
is that which comes in under the road
bed; and the upper-water what comes
on it from above or flows In from the
sides. The way to get rid of the first
is through drainage; particularly in
these seepy places. The way to con-
troll the second is by grading and then
dragging, to put an enamel on the sur
face of the road.-Wallace's Farmer.
Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1916-06-23

gated by large steamers for half its
length, and is connected with Dublin
by means of the Grand and Royal
canals.
Although coal is found in most of the
80 counties into which the island is
divided, and there is considerable
iron ore, mining is not an important
industry. Gold was being mined in
a modest way in County Wicklow at
the time of the rebellion OF 1898, but
the works were destroyed and the
source of the metal has never been
re-discovered.
Industries Of the island.
Agriculture and stock raising are
the chief occupations OF the inhabf-
tants. At one time the wooden manu-
features of the island were formid-
able rivals of English factories, but
hostile legislation gave the industry a
check from which it has never recov-
cred. AS the Irish have raised fax
for centuries the manufacture of linen
early became one of the important
industries of the country. Irish
whisky is an important article of ex-
port and one OF the largest breweries
in the world is located at Dublin. The
islands production of beer is three
and half million barrels annually.
Shipbuilding in the great yards at
Belfast is one of the most widely
known of Irish activities, and the deep
sea and coast fisheries afford live
lihood for many thousands.
Thanks to the temperate influence
of the west winds from the Atlantic,
the thermometer rarcy reaches freez-
ing point in winter, while the aver
age for summer day is so degrees.
At Toor Head on the north the dis
tance to Scotland (Mull of Cantiri)
is only 1914 miles. The Giants Cause
way, short distance to the east of
this point, is the outcropping basaltic
formation which in former age
joined the two islands.

TIME historical and political i'm
portance of Ireland has Gre
ated in the minds of many
Americans an exaggerated idea
of the islands physical proportions
and the density of its population, two
vital factors in England's task of sup
pressing the rebellion which had its
inception in the capital and largest
city, Dublin. According to the Ma
tional Geographic society's bulletin
the whole of Ireland embraces an
area slightly less than the state of
Maine, but with population almost
six times as dense. In comparison
with the governing country, it is
three-fifths as large as England and
Wales, with one-ninth the population.
The island is one of the very few
sections of the civilized world where
the population has shown a marked
decrease during the last century. The
first census of the island, taken in
1921, recorded population almost
so per cent larger than at the pres
ent time, while the census Of 1841
showed the high-water mark OF more
than eight millions, nearly twice the
present population Of 4,375,000. This
remarkable decrease, due largely to
emigration, began after the famine
brought about by the destructive dis
ease which attacked the potato crops
Of 1S45. This calamity resulted in
the withdrawal of more than a mil
lion acres from cultivation within two
years. incidentally the potato, which
has played such an important role in
the life of Ireland during the last 800
years, is not indigenous to the island.
