NO YALE-HARvARD WAR FUND GAME

Under the conditions which prevail at the present time none of the big three in football-Yale, Harvard and Princeton-will dabble in the sport this fall as an intercollegiate event. This was announced Monday at the offices in New York of the United War Work Campaign. William W. Roper, formerly coach of the Prince ton team and now secretary of the organization which is making the drive in sports to raise $17G 500,000 for the benefit of the men in service, sounded the officials of all three of these institutions, but there was negative response in each case The chief reason assigned for this attitude is that practically all the students above the sophomore wear are doing some sort of work for Uncle Sam and those who are mature are physically unfit to play the game. Of course it will be disappointment to the lovers of football who had been in hopes of seeing these three in action even if they did not measure up to the stand ard of other years. but there will be plenty of the gridiron sport for the benefit of the fund.
 Particular attention will be paid to games among teams from the various army and navy encampments. The Training Station team will play in the Pelham Bay eleven and the Newport Yale Bowl on November 16 Rutgers and Pittsburgh have been matched for Election Day either at the Polo Grounds or Forbes Field in Pitts burgh. Pittsburgh and Georgia Tech will meet in Pittsburgh on November 23. This will be the biggest game of the year, for it will bring together two teams which have not been de- feated in the last couple of years and | it will practically decide the cham pionship of this part of the country Georgia Tech has held sway as the undisputed leaders of southern foot ball for a. good many years and Pitts burgh has been beating all rivals in the East for some time.
 What will practically decide the | championship of the Pacific Coast will be the match staged in Sar Francisco November 23 between the University of California and Uni versity of Oregon. Missouri and Kan sas will also meet for the benefit oi the fund on November 23. The League Island Marines team has asked for a game to be played o the Polo Grounds November 23 an6 l they will probably be accommodated
 with a suitable opponent.

HoPPE WILL DEFEND
 1892 BILLIARD TITLE

The first worlds championship match in aid of the United War Work Campaign drive was practically as sured Monday when several members of the Sports Committee agreed to underwrite a $1O0O bet which Willie Hoppe insists upon before he will consent to play Welker Cochran for his 1S.2 inch billiard title.
 Side Bet For Rick
 At the meeting at the. local head quarters Monday, Jack Doyle, the generalissimo of the billiard end of the sports programme, told the other members that Hoppe believed he was entitled to some compensation flor risking his championship, and that he was ready to play Cochran and give the receipts to the drive, if a side bet of S1 900 was made.
 Several members of the committee knowing the value of such a match which by the way has been in the making for many months, stated that they were willing to furnish the $1, ,000 in case Cochran was de- feated by the champion. Doyle wired Hoppe in Boston last night that his side bet was covered and expects a favorable answer from Willie to- day.
 In Four Cities.
 The match, if played, will be of 2,ooO in blocks of 300 points each night. It will be contested in four cities-Boston, Washington, Phila- delphia and New York-with the final block being played in this city.

SPORT PAGE FIRST
TO SOLDIERS

TO SOLDIERS
 The editor of Stars and Stripes, the official newspaper of the American Expeditionary Forces in France. an- nounced few months ago that his publication no longer would carry sporting page. He declared that the actions of professional baseball players in seeking shipyards and other bombproof berths had caused re- version of feeling among the Ex- peditionary Forces toward sport. Regardless of the merits of the argu- ment, there has been no reversion of the forces feeling with regard to sport in general. Even the news of the worlds series among profess sional ball players was sought with eagerness andavidity.
 We are informed that the sport page is the first toward which the soldier or the sailor over there turns as soon as he gets a paper from this country, and papers are passed on and on until they are worn to shreds. On top of this comes a call from the American Library Association for sport publications, annuals and rule books of every description. The association officials say there is a | tremendous demand for these among the soldiers in France. The editor of the Stars and Stripes evidently 1 is not giving his readers. all they demand. Especially for the man who l fights the sport page is the big thing over here, and it's a bigger thing over there, where his mind is in TO mood for perusaI of economic prob lems the progress of the tax bill or recipes for making bread pudding or refurnishing his last years hot.

BEST FEED FOR YOUNG PIGS
When Little Animals Begin to Nose
Around for Something to Eat Sup
ply sheled Corn.

prepared by the United states Depart
met OF Agriculture)
One OF the best feeds for young pigs
Is shelled corn. When pigs are about
three weeks old, sometimes less, they
begin to nose around for something to
eat, and at this time in order to make
them gain more rapidly, shelled corn
should be supplied.
1t should be In Il self-feeder in pen
where the pigs can go to 1t and Will
not be bothered by any Of the rest of
the hogs This can be arranged by n
creep just large enough to admit the
pigs handily, Don't forget that these
little fellows grow quite rapidly and
from time to time the creep must be
made larger.
After the pigs are four or five weeks
old, especially If they do not have good
grass pasture, the addition of some
shorts, tankage or oil meal Is adyisa-
BILE. Nothing would be better. how
ever, than skinned milk.
The self-feeder In which Is kept corn
and other feeds should be maintained
right along until weaving time, and
after that If the pig Is intended fol
market purposes, Pigs to be used for
breeding purposes may be kept on q
self-feeder all the time with splendid
results, but in some cases they get toe
fat and logy and do not take the prop
er exercise. The most profitable pig Il
the one that never quits growing from
farrowing time until he is driven owe
the scales.

Every minister, priest and rabbi in

The United States department of ag-
riculture, through the states relations
service and by cooperation with the
federal council Of churches, Is sending
special letter to all preachers asking
their assistance In the -proiSction
campaign. The preachers are being
asked to get in touch with county
agents and with the state extension
service, which represents the state ag-
ricultural college and the United States
department of agriculture, and to de-
vote as much time us possible to en-
tightening their people regarding the
necessity of local food production.
They are being furnished with data re-
garding the great burdens upon the
transportation system of the country,
and, in sections where the food pro-
duction Is insufficient for local needs,
special message Is being sent to urge
increased production to meet local de-
mands.

pensive to feed supplemental grain
ration. At such times there Is great
temptation to place the hogs upon pas
ture alone. This practice will hardly
ever pay, for it generally takes more
grain and more time to finish off the
hogs than If they had been fed lib
eral ration while on pasture.
The amount Of grain used also will
depend upon the length Of time the
feeder has in which to fit the hogs for
market. Hogs that are marketed from
ten to twelve months old are usually
maintained on pasture alone during the
grazing season. If any grain is given
ut al it is very light In this way the
greater percentage Of growth is made
from the cheaply grown forage. Where
rapid finishing is desired, the liberal
use Of grain Is important.
Importance of Pasture.
Permanent pastures also play an i'm
portant part in fOrage-crop success
sion. Such pastures as alfalfa, the
ClOvers, blue grass, Bermuda, and a
number Of others, have their greatest
use during the summer, when few tenn
porary crops, such as corn, soy beans,
cOwpeas, and velvet beans, are avail
able. Permanent pastures do not fur
nish grazing as early in the spring as
do the cereals, but they grow better
during late spring and summer and af-
ford an abundance Of forage at sea-
son when few other pasture crops are
ready to Craze. A permanent pasture
then takes the place Of reserve for
age crop, being called upon to furnish
grazing at any time of the year wher
other pastures fail or are exhausted.
Dry-lot rations are not usually salts
factory from a financial standpoint
Corn ordinarily forms the basis Of thu
ration, with protein supplied from Ont
of the concentrates, such as mill feeds
oil meal, soy beans, alfalfa, or lik'
| feeds. Where milk Is available it Il
frequently fed to hogs to advantage
but under present conditions much O.
the skim milk which has been givel
to hogs should now be manufactured
into cheese.
When fed in the dry lot, common
custom is to give the pigs all the feet
they will clean up in a reasonabl!
short time. For pig weighing IS t.
so pounds live weight full ration fo
one day is about six pounds of grail
for each 100 pounds of weight; fo
larger pigs the ration will continue
to grow smaller in proportion to weigh
until the 800 to 350-pound pig will onl,
consume daily ration equal to abou
"a per cent of his weight.

Freezone dries the moment 1t Is ap-
