BROWN RESENTS
HARVARD'S ACTION
IN USING SUBS
Providence Eleven Wants to
Meet Haughton's Strong
est Team on Saturday
CONFIDENT OF DRY

PROVIDENCE, r. l.. Nov. 1e.-An-
nouncement byN the Harvard Athletic As
ISOLATION that only second-string men are
to be used against Brown Saturday in the
annual game at Cambridge aroused bitter
feeling among the Brown undergraduate
body.
Browns great victory over Yales best
team last Saturday and the Brunonians'
other fne record made this fall place the
team on par with any OF the big colleges
this year and give them an eleven which
should not be held so cheap as the Harvard
A. A. is doing, say the Brown students.
While Brown has never beaten Harvard,
no matter how great her team and how
many substitutes Harvard has played
against them, the Brown followers insist
that this is one OF the greatest teams ever
turned out from Providence since the days
OF Fultz, Cannon and others. and that
Harvard should play Its best eleven on
Saturday.
Haughtons excuse is said TO be to let his
regulars of so as to escape possible injury
today. which would incapacltate them for
the Yale game n week later but this Is
secuted here Many of the students think
that Harvard Is actually afraid to send its
best eleven against Brown. since that Yale
Waterloo n week ago, for should Brown
prove victor 1t would have a most damag-
ing effect upon the Crimson for the Yale
game,
To beat Harvard has been the one great
desire at Brown ever since football rela-
tions began between the two colleges, and
this is the big game of the year to all
lovers OF football in Providence.

HARVARD INTO WOODS OF WEEPING WILLOW
HOMY CLUB OR GOLF PALACE
WORRIES SUNNYBROOK MEMREpo
OF MILLIONAIRES' LINKS CT I'm
BY SANDY McNIBL1CK

TWO factions at sunnybrook, the
i ''mllilonaires' golf course" which has
the finest greens in the Philadelphia dis
trict and IL a very grand links withal, are
eagerly disputlng the building Of club
house.
The one faction would set up, according
to members in favor Of the scheme a
simple structure, very comfortable and with
all golf clubhouse conveniences. while the
other faction is in favor OF clubhouse
that will outdo anything in the district for
imposing grandeur. luxury and expense.
The latter proposes building palace far
exceling such luxurious clubs as that Of
Seaview, the Country Club, others Of Phil
adeiphia's magnificent country club homes.
The strongest faction at Sunnybrook ap-
pears TO be the one that would have a
simple housing for the members and would
concentrate its resources on the completion
Of the finest golf courses in the city.
This faction feels that a dazzling edihce
such as the other side advocates, would
concentrate the life Of the club on the
social side rather than on the golf, which
last was the prime purpose Of the club
In the beginning.
One faction feels that a honey club to
fulnll all the golf needs OF tho organization
Is the thing essential. The other faction
feels that there is not any really grand
clubhouse in Philadelphia and that there
ought to be one for social eventsS out of

Opinions Differ
There never wns more difference of opin-
ior as to the victor shown in any other
match held before n Philadelphia audience.
Men who have been connected with the
boxing game - matchmakers, promoters,
managers, seconds, even boxers--for many
years did not see" tho contest the same
way. Only three decisions could have been
rendered, thanks to that: either Dundee
won, Leonard won or a draw. All three
decisions were on the docket.
Weights announced were: Dundee, 1872 n
Leonard, 1886; each with his full ring attire.
The audience, including some 200 New
YORK fans, was the most enthusiastic that
ever attended boxing show. A continual
uproar predomlnated, and the spectators ap-
peared evenly divided in roofing for their
favorlte

FARMERS SHOULD
TEST SEED CORN

Washington, D. c., March 28
Farraers who take the advice of
Ca VI sS0en the Assistant Secre-
tary of the United States Department
of Agriculture, will test every ear of
corn this year before they plant it.
The seed corn situation, Mr.. Vroo-
man says, is probably more serious
now than it has been for years. On
account of the late, cold season and
the heavy frosts in the early part of
last October, very little corn, especi-
ally in the northern half of the corn
belt, ripened naturally and at the
time of the first hard frosts much of
it still contained large amount Of
moisture.
Testing seed corn is always a
wise precaution," said Mr.. Vrooman,
''but this year it is a necessary one.
Every farmer should test his seed
this spring by the individual ear test.
No matter how much confidence you
have in the man you buy seed from,
make test and know for yourself
that the seed is good. If the seed is
not good, you can get some other
that is.
"a number of seed men who have
we'll constructed seed houses report
that they find the early picked seed
tests very satisfactorily, but the seed
picked later, even if properly dried,
is very unsatisfactory. One test in
Northeastern Nebraska showed 90per
cent of the early field-picked seed to
be good while only 68 per cent of the
crib-selected seed terminated. In
many sections of Northern Iowa and
Illinois the percentage of good seed IS
much lower, even when the seed was
picked before frost and properly
dried, while seed picked from the
wagon at husking time, or from the
crib is practically worthless as seed.
One reason for this is that many far
mers in this section are raising corn
of very large variety which re-
quires full growing season, and this
corn did not ripen before the early
frosts.
"Under these circumstances, test
ing each ear is simply good insurance.
One ear of corn will produce about
five bushels-if all the grains grow.
With corn at so cents bushel, plant
ing a dead ear or an ear that will pro-
duce only weak unproductive stalks,
means loss of SO. If you catch only
one bad ear. your testing has paid
you a good days wages. If you catch
the average number, you've saved
weeks pay in a winter afternoon"

Corner.

Cost Approximately $1,000
One Plant to Heat All.

Plans have been completed for
group of four handsome residences,
bungalow style, to be erected by
Chas. Badgett in West Maryville,
near the property of Maj. viii A.
McTeer. Plans were drawn by M. E.
Parmelee, of Knoxville. The group
will occupy the corner block, and two
will front the Morganton road and
two on the cross street.. A heating
system will be installed in the base
nent of one of the houses, and all
four will be heated from this plant.
Three of the houses will be two
stories, and one single story. 1t is
Understood Mr.. Badgett will live in
one of these handsome new residen-
ces.
The approximate cost of the four
buildings will be $4,000.
Recently Mr. Badgett completed
another group of four bungalows in
the west end, which are among the
handsomest in town. All have been

still retains stock in the organization.
The plants were organized more than
twenty years ago, the Knoxville plant
being put in operation first. Both
have grown rapidly and have had a
very prosperous business.
The consolidation of the two or
ganizations means the enlargement
of the local plant, and an increase in
the number of employees.
1t will require three or four
months to finally work out all plans
incident to the consolidation.
The cost system now in use by the
Southern Coffin & Casket Co., as
worked out by Mr.. Staley, is said to
be one of the completest and most
comprehensive in any coffin and cas-
ket factory in America, and Mr.. Sta
ley attributes the success of the local
plant largely to his cost system which
enabled them to manufacture and
sell their product intelligently.

COFFIN PLANTS
CONSOLIDATE
Knoxville Coffin Co. and South
ern Coffin and Casket Co.,
Made One Organization.
Manufacturing Plant in Mary
vile, Finishing Plant in
KnoxviIle-Capital $4,000

The Southern Coffin & Casket Co.,
and the Knoxville Coffin Company,
have been consolidated. This onsol-
idation was finally effected Saturday
when the stockholders of the latter
concern approved the plan, which
had formerly been favorably acted
upon by the stockholders of the South
ern Coffin & Casket Co.
The plant and offices of the
Southern Coffin & Casket Co., are
located in Maryville, while the offices
and plant of the latter are in Knox
vile. Under the system of consolida-
ton, the local plant will be the manu-
featuring plant, while the assembling
and finishing plant will be in Knox
vile.
J. H. Staley, general manager Of
the Southern Coffin & Caskekt Co.,
is responsible for the consolidation of
the two plants. He has been working
on the proposition for several
months, believing that by consolida-
ton both concerns would be bettered,
and larger trade could be comman-
ded.
The consolidated plants will have
a capacity of approximately $4,000
coffins and caskets per year, and will
rank among the largest in the South,
or in the United States, for that mat
ter.
The capital stock of the new cor
operation is 100000.
Mr.. Staley, the manager, will have
headquarters at both of the plants,
much of his time being taken up in
Knoxville, which is to be the distri-
buting point. However it will be graf
flying to his friends and business
associates in Maryville to know that
he will continue to make his home in
this town. Mr.. Staley is vice-presi-
dent of the First National Bank, and
was for years member of the execu-
tive committee Of the association of
casket manufacturers of the United
States.
Both the Knoxville Coffin Co., and
the Southern Coffin and Casket Co.,
were organized by I. B. Ziegler, who

CLEAN UP

The first week in April will be Cleanup week,
and we, the Board of Mayor and Aldermen, there
fore ask that all parties set apart that week to clean
up their premises. ...
Pile all rubbish at convenient place and we
will have wagons call and haul it Off There is moth
ing that helps the looks of town more than TO have
it clean and the cleaner the more sanitary. And if
all people will just give little more thought to inn
proving the appearance of their premises and streets
and not throw loose papers to be scattered about
would save great deal of trouble and add greatly
to the appearance of the town.
The ladies of all the societies of the town have
made special request to the Board of Mayor and
Aldermen to have the town cleaned UP. Now when
the ladies get after you ALL there must be something
doing. So get busy and let's clean up!
A committee of ladies will be appointed from
each ward that the various districts clean
ed up, and want to say that they will look after
this. And as they have said this fall will be home
coming time, we want everything to look clean.
We will try and have wagons get all rubbish. If
any is overlooked, notify the Board and we will
attend to it.

WATER PLANT
NEARLY READY
Superintendent Lipscomb Says
Town Should Have Water
Within Three Months.
Fine Stream Struck, Analysis
Good, and Pumps Will Soon
Be Installed.

MaryVille will be supplied with wa
ter through the new municipal water
system within the next 80 days, if
nothing unforeseen happens to pre-
vent present plans, is the statement
of Mr.. r D. Lipscomb, in charge of
the construction of the local system.
A large stream of water which is
considered equal to demands that will
be made upon it has been reached.
The analysis shows that it measures
up to the requirements and as soon
as the big pumps are installed, the
work VIII have been completed. The
water mains must be laid ON three
blocks on Main street, across Court
street tc High street and then for a
short distance on High street. This
will complete the water pipe system,
and Mr.. Lipscomb says that if wealth
er permits, this can be finished in
three weeks. 1t will require about
three weeks to complete the reservoir
and then all that will remain will be
the building of pump houses, INSTALL
alton of pumps, etc. 1t is possible
this work can be completed within
two months, asserted Mr.. Lipscomb.
