War has disturbed the
whole worlds sugar supply.
1t has not only wiped out any
available surplus. but it has
put all nations on a hand-to-
mouth basis.
The European Allies were
the first to feel the pinch.
Before the war, enough sugar
was produced on the Con-
tinent to supply all Europe.
Today, two thirds Of this
susar-producing area is with
in the battle lines.
England, France and other
nations have had to turn
elsewhere for supply Of this
indispensable food.
And they came to Cuba
the main source upon which
the United States depends for
its cane sugar. During 1917.
Cuba sold and shipped to
Europe nearly 100000 tons
Of raw suSar-one.third of it's
crop.
In addition to the normal
increase in the consumption
Of sugar as food in this coun-
try, the nationwide move
ment to save the fruit crop
last season greatly increased
its use.
But this increased con-
sumption Of sugar has been a
real factor in combating
waste. II enabled the Ameri-
can housewife to add to the
store Of the food Of the ma
ton at q time when fruits
and vegetables were plenti-
full and cheap.
The sugar is not only in the
fruit jar, but it has carried
into the pantries Of the coun-
try q vast supply Of fruit and
vegetables which would
otherwise have been lost.
Sugar itself is not only a food.
but it is also the great pre-
server Of other foods.
As the demand for sugar
grew. both here and abroad,
Cuba's supply was exhausted
last fall. Every available
ton in Porto Rico and other
cane sugar countries was &C
CURED. But this was not
enough, and the shortage
came.

THE SHOOTING OF QUAIL

The Bob-white quail gives good
shooting under many conditions. some
Of them so easy that MANY sportsmen
consider this bird the least difficult of
all game birds to bag, while others
are difficult enough to call forth the
best skill of the expert shot. The be-
ginner can kill some quail and the
veteran shot will find that he cannot
ecu all birds shot at.
The marked characteristics of quail
are that the birds lie best to the dog
and rise neare to the gun than other
birds of the uplands. Quail are found
in both the open and in heavy cover.
In an open, level ragweed field. where
the weeds are knee high, quail sail
away on an eve keel, as straight AZ
an arrow, and the average shot can
often get in a good right and left
barrel. When flushed In heavy cover
the flight of the quail is beyond the
foresight of the shooter. and he will
swerve so quickly as to escape a
charge of shot SEM directly at him.
One of the difficulties of quail
shooting lies in the very fact that he
rises near the gun. II a bird rises
within ten feet OF the gun and con-
tinues sailing around the shooters
head at a mile a minute clip, the
chances are that he could not be
killed in ten shots. because the bird
and the gun change angles with light
ueng-like rapidity, which is beyond

Athletes VIII Fly to Great {
Lakes to National Meet

CHICAGO, Sept. 19:-Entries for
the national A. A. u. outdoor track
and field championships to be decided
at the Great Lakes Naval Training
Station next Friday, Saturday and
Monday reached a total of ISL last
night. The list is a record breaker.
SURPRISING all expectations.
Three athletes who are In the ayia-
ton service and stationed at Scott
Field, near st. Louis. will fly to the
Great Lakes to compete. Lieut.. r
w. Harwood, a former Harvard pole
vaulter, will lead the squad of sky
athletes.
Virtually every athlete of scholas-
tic, intercollegiate or club prominence
in the country has been entered. Sew
'enty-five per Ger of the men are "a
the service and will compete under
the colors of twenty or more camps
The Great Lakes station alone en-
tered a squad of sixty, among them
several national champions. The Pei
ham Bay Naval Training Station en-
tered sixteen.
The entry Of seven athletes from
the Royal Air Force of Toronto, Can
ada, was received today. The list in
cluded Earl Thompson, a worlds rec
ord holder, in the all-round event.
Carl Mertens, a three-mile walker
also is coming on from Toronto.
The junior championships are to be
decided , Friday and the senior
games Saturday. Fourteen men will
compete in the all round champions
ships on Monday, on which day the
relays also will be run off.

meet in years. said Justice Barlow

Court tonight. Justice Weeks will be

the ability Of the most expert and
quickest shot to calculate.
Must Think Quickly.
The nature f the quail's flight Of
ten makes a long swing unavoidable.
Perhaps the bird may rise to the
north, pass to the west, and be killed
in the south. If 1t had been possible
to foresee that the bird would swing
about to the south before being killed,
the gun might rave been pointed
there, but in the meantime the quail
would probably have gone In some
other direction. Shooting quail calls
for care and skill in cover shooting,
and the only safe rule is to point your
gun as near the bird as you can when
he breaks and shoot as quickly as you
can get on.
The chief thing that should be re-
membered is that n bird flying
away from the gun, beneath the line
of aim, demands high holding wheth-
err or not the mark is rising. II the
target is above the level of the eye,
lower holding may be sometimes nee
essary even when the bird is gradu-
ally rising.
If a bird rises near the gun and the
aim Is taken direct. the muzzle Is
pointed toward the ground. Now the
bird may fly away nearly along the
ground, as pigeons often do, and yet
the line of aim must rise steadily un-
til the gun Is nearly In a horizontal
position.

MATTY HERBERT LICKS
FORGIONE IN FAST BOUT

the local boy not a few times The
last round was a hummer with the
shade in Matty's favor. :
Matty wasn't as fast last night as
he was in his Mickey belmont battle
and although he fought a greener
man he had to concede weight,
height and reach to his Newark OPP
ponent, who Is fast becoming a dam
igerous contender for premier boxing
lhonors. Forgione took. a bad beating
last night, but deserves lots of credit
for the pluck and GOODNESS he dis
played.
Yankee Delane earned a shade over
Victor Richie in the six round semi
final windup by his whirlwind finish.
For the first three rounds these
game cocks lodged, side-stepped
one-stepped, hesitated and tapped
each other with lightning speed with
Richie doing all the forcing and be-
ing the aggressor. This match was a
very clever boxing exhibition for
three rounds. In the fourth Delane
started fighting and got home a few
solid blows to Richie who still
pranced and danced around. Yankee
kept up. his hard fighting for the rest
of the bout and easily had a largo
enough shade in the last three rounds
to offset Ritchie's advantage in the
first three rounds. These boys were
very clever and had to extend them
selves to the utmost last night, which
they did.
Kid Leo, of the island, came back
strong last night and licked Young
Egmore. of this city, In the opening
~four-round scrap. In a-previous set
to these boys fought a draw. but last
nights battle was all Leo's. Egmore
came into the ring last night with a
little more science than he displayed
at his first fight. but a stiff poke In
the jaw from Leo made him forget
this polish and after hat he was at
the mercy Of the island boy. Just as
the referee, Jimmy DeForrest. OF
Long Branch, was about to g the
local boy to his corner the gong
struck. saving him from a technical
knockout
The other ~four-round preliminary
bout brought together Frank Shank,
of Newark, and John Dempson, the
fighting iceman, of Carteret. The
Newark bruiser outweighed the ice
man by nine pounds and won with a
shade. The iceman was too crude
but with a little boxing knowledge
will soon be able to take on some
good heavies.
Jimmy DeForrest, of Long Branch,
refereed the bouts. :

Matty Herbert handed Joe Forgi-
one a severe lacing at the Lotos last
night in the main eight-round bout
of the evening. Matty won the fight
by-a big margin and gave Forgione
the worst beating he has ever re-
ceived in this city. From the very
outset Matty took the offensive while
Joe contented~ himself with trying to
block the local boys clever advances
Matty was a whirlwind of cleverness
and with the exception of The third
round, in which frame he had his
right eye closed by one Of the New
ark lads wallops, he easily was the
and mor aggressive fighter,
Matty started the fight with a tat
too of blows to the stomach and left
looked like curtains for Forgione.
The first round was all Matty.
The second round found our Matty
continuing his clever pace n forcing
ali the milling. Joe made a better
showing in this frame but was simply
outclassed. Matty beat him TO the
punch every time and worked his
flying left to the jaw, varied with a
solid right to the stomach.
The third round started at the
same fast clip and in the melee
Matty took one of Joe's hefty rights
on his right eye and In a few seconds
that optic was closed. This blow
seemed to bother Matty and throwing
discretion to the winds he went at
Forgoine hot and heavy. but Joe was
waiting for him and had Matty miss
ing quite a few.
In the fourth frame Matty started
cool again and although bothered
by his closed optic, recovered his
equilibrium again and led Joe easily.
The fifth round was Herbert's big
In this stanza he pummeled
Joe with left and right hooks to the
jaw all around the ring and banged
him into the ropes a few times. For
gione's longer reach didn't aid him a
mite when Matty let loose fore and
aft and sailed into him like a storm.
In the sixth round Matty got ven
with his Newark opponent by closing
the latter's left eye at the very outset.
For the rest Of the fight there was no
let up. both men going at each other
hammer and tongs. But during these
last two rounds Forgione missed in
Vulnerable times when he led for
Herbert's head, but found Matty al
ways a few inches out of the way of
his shots. Joe's best punch was a
left uppercut with which he caught
