NEW YORK, Nov. 27-Yale's vic
tory over Harvard, which gave to the
Sons of Eli the championship of the
aristocratic "big three" carried with it
a rather empty glory. Brown univer-
sity pitted in succession against Yale
and Harvard whipped both those
teams and did it with such rousing en-
thusiasm that the Providence team to.
day undoubtedly holds double-cinch-
led hammerlock on the eastern cham
pionship.
Unless Colgate knocks eastern fans
off their feet with victory over the
Rhode islanders Thursday, Pollard and
the rest Of the Brunonians will glory
in an eastern title.
At Pittsburgh it is excusable to foam
around and point to Pittsburgh's claim
record for the year and claim at least
a tie with Brown, but it Is impossible
to overlook those two clean victories
by Brown over Harvard and Yale.
Also, it was by the narrowest margin
that Pittsburgh escaped. The Navy,
a team not counted at all in the gener-
al placing, suffered defeat by Pitts
burgh by the bare count of 81 to 49,
Empty glory in conquest of the whole
east, however, is easily overlooked by
Yale. The victory of the Blue over
Harvard is plenty of compensation for
anything that might have happened
and that fact that the Blue eleven out
fought and outplayed Harvard at
every stage is enough account for any
old kind of enthusiasm in Connecti-
cut.
The Army-Navy contest brought out
once more the fact that Elmer Oil
plant, westerner, is about the best
football player the easr has watched
in years.
ELEPHANTS spectacular work Satur-
day brought his point total for the
season up to 112, more than any indi-
vidual has scored this year.

When we knocked at the front

You cannot come in this way. The

so we all filed through the kitchen
to the little sitting room with the big
fireplace, where Mr.. Stevenson re-
ceived US. After a while Lloyd Os-

have cup of tea. and as they assented
he departed for the kitchen. Soon he
returned with broad smile on his

tea; the cook scouts the ideal! And
we didn't have any" Doctor Trudeau

WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in a highly
flourishing condition and is bound in
a very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
a great demand for that article, and
its use abroad has given it lot of
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is Low sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
who, having used it. is quick TO ap-
preciate its value. This means that
after the war there will be demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up TO the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met AS a matter OF
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribtNe to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undonbt-
edly be maintained this season. West
ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making of cheese, the
feed and the cool nights. two things
essential. and in time it is bound to
become one OF the finest cheese coun-
tries Of the continent.

The cool nights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is great thing for
the industry, especially when COM
bined with possibilities Of cattle feed
such as exis. on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward,
The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one. and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced. coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof

One of the first thoughts that occur
to the mind of the average prospective
settler is the likelihood OF suitable
markets. In this connection the fol.
lowing table win be illuminating. It
is eunplied nv the p Burns company,
packers and exporters. OF Calgary, and
shows the average monthly price paid
for hogs for the six years 1910 to 1915
inclusive. When one considers the low
initial cost Of the land and the small
overhead cost Of maintenance and
feed, these prices challenge compari

Bio Demand for Queen Bees.

Between 500 and 900 requests for
purebred queens have been received
at the experiment station from bee
keepers of the state The officials will
fnd it impossible to supply more than
part of this demand, ;lut this years
applications will be filed and supplied
next season in the order in which re-
quests have been received. The great
er part of the queens will be reared
and shipped during the months of
July and August. The queens are be-
ing sold at so cents each and none are
being sent out of the state. 1t is hoped
that 500 queens will be reared this
year, 1000 next year and as many
more the following season as possible.
In time. it il hoped that every bee
keeper in the state will be supplied
with new purebred queens. With
these he will be able TO provide his
entire apiary with pure strain.

A farmer of Monarch, Alberta,
claims the distinction of being the first
in the province to sell a carload of
hogs at the high price of eleven cents
IA pound, live weight. The sale was
made a short time ago at Calgary, and
at that time was record. although
prices have since gone as high as
$11.l2lk per hsndredweight. With
such prices available for hogs the
farmer has a market for everything
his farm produces, as there IS prac-
tically no farm product which cannot
be converted into good hog flesh The
uncertainty of results which attends
grain farming even under most favor
able conditions is removed when the

10000 Men In w. N. c.

Under the new army reorganiZa-
ton law, the Hay-Chamberlain bill
as passed by congress, the Wiscon-
sin National Guard will be increased
from 5000 men, the present strength,
to approximately 10000 men and the
annual cost will be proportionately
greater, reaching well above $50O,0OO.
Such was the view expressed by
Adjt. Gen. Orlando Holway of the
Wisconsin National Guard, but he said
no definite statement could be made
until the president has given direc-
tions for the organization Of the mill
tia under the new law. How many or
CARNATIONS will be added depends al
together upon the action taken by the
federal authorities and that cannot be
foretold.
General Holway said he could speak
only from a general understanding OF
the new national law. copies of which
he has asked the federal authorities
to forward to him.
Gov. E. L. Philip said that he has
practically the same understanding
Of the new law as has General -Hol-
way: that the militia will be about
trebled under it and the cost proper
tionately increased.
Under the law passed by the last
legislature there is appropriated $780,
600 for the support of the militia and
under it the various organizations have
been greatly strengthened, so that
now when the boys go into camp next
August there will be $500 men gath
cred at Camp Douglas.
General Holway said that under the
new federal law the state militiamen
will get a little more pay, and while
this will not be great, it will help some
to pave the way for enlistment. AS
it is, however, the Wisconsin militia
is we'll recruited and stands high in
the records of training and efficiency.
General Holway said that he will mus
ter in two new field batteries, enc at
Green Bay and one at Racine, about
800 men and officers in the two, be-
fore June r. The signal corps organ
lied at La Crosse, rs men, the first
unit of the kind in the militia, will
also be mustered in at the same time,
so as to be ready for the annual field
camp at Camp Douglas, which opens
