"A uto Pilots Here For Race
Princeton Assured Victory
Informal TyiangulnvlMeet

Princeton hurdler. His showing in
winning the Penn relay timber events
and in the dual meet with Columbia
stamps him as perhaps the best huYdler
Of the year. Princeton has two excel
lent reserve hurdlers in Busby and
Trowbridge.
Princeton has a remarkable middle
distance runner in Captain j. H. Bar
rett. He is reasonably sure of the 44O-
in case he is started in that event. He
may, however, also be entered in the
half mile.
Princeton possesses another star in
Sinclair, in the weight events. He
is capable of better than as feet in
the shot put, and Richard Cleveland,
son of the former President of the
United States, is certain point win
ner in both events, on form he has
consistently shown in practice.
Tigers Strong in Distances
Raymond, Princeton's best miller, has
a mark Of q minutes 81 seconds and has
the event at his mercy. 1t may be
decided, however, that he will be
started in simply the two-mile race.
Captain Barrett is a 51-second man
in the quarter mile. Erdman has
mark Of Is 3-5 seconds in the high
and rs As in the low hurdles.
The possibility tiat Sinclair and
Raymond will be lost to the Princeton
team faces Coach Kenne Fitzpatrick,
to whose handling of the track ma
terial the improvement in Princetons
teams is largely due. Both these men
are awaiting a call to join officers
training camps.
The highest standard of Yale track
men is in the pole vault, in which
Gerald Sweeney, son of Mike Sweeney,
the former worlds champion higi
jumper, has done IL feet inches, and
D. F. Ford IL feet inches this
spring.
In the two-mile run E. B. Fisher,
steady and displaying flashes of brill
liant running, is Yale's mainstay. H.
w. Waterman in the mile is capable
of 4 minutes 35 seconds, but he may
be lost to the team through call to
military service.
Yale has couple of fair sprinters
in Balliett and Thompson, and in
Frank Heffelfinger a quarter miller who
can clip So seconds. Ford, in the
Jumps, is also q sure point winner
Slevlin, in the hammer throw, should

When CANNING for Market.

Housewives and canning club mem.
bers who wish to sell their canned
products are urged by the bureau OF
markets, United States department OF
agriculture, to study their markets at
the beginning of the season and pack
according to local demands for differ
ent products. Secure orders for canned
goods before putting them up, is the
advice of the specialists. Small lots
Of nonstandardized products are diff
cult to sell except among local buyers
and are not purchased by the army
navy, commercial dealers, or any de-
partment Of the government.
Home-canned food can be kept over
from one season to the next, and those
who have not sold their goods have
reserves to draw from for their home
table. 1t Is good policy, say the spe'
cialfsts, for the housewife TO provide
reasonable surplus beyond the prob
able home consumption for the next
crop year. While the bureau of mar
kets is giving aid to producers on mar
keting problems, it says that it is diff
cult to place producers Of small quar-
titles Of different kinds Of products In
touch with buyers.

his division superintendent -four cars
Strawberries to Chicago" The super
fntendent added these four cars to fig

agents. and wired the total to the de-
partment of agriculture at Washing.
ton.
The agent at Highland wondered
why anyone should want to know
about cars Of strawberries moving to
Chicago. A few years ago his Uncle
Henry had "gone broke" raising
Strawberries because he couldn't sell
them for enough to pay his expenses.
While he was wondering about this,
messages were coming to Washington
from all railroads and soon word was
flashed back to points in producing sec
tons showing that a total of 40 cars Of
Strawberries were on the way to Chi
cago, and that comparatively few ship
ments were going to other important
markets.
Shipment Diverted.
"Forty cars will swamp the Chicago
market tomorrow" said a strawberry
man, who received the wire from
Washington, and he reached for the
telephone. Messages went to railroad
officials to divert certain cars headed
for Chicago to other cities where
Strawberries were not abundant
Next day Chicago received only 20
cars of strawberries instead Of the
40 that would have gone there except
for the market news service. of the
bureau Of markets. Chicago could
use 20 cars but not 40, and because
the other 20 cars went to different
markets many growers received checks
that gave them a profit on their ship
ments.
Helping the Uncle Henrys.
Guesswork in marketing of fruits
and vegetables has gone. The market
news service is working for many
"Uncle Henrys" and also for dealers
and consumers. No one profits when
q city receives more of any fruit or
vegetable than 1t can consume, and
as means of correcting such a condi-
ton it is necessary to know how much
produce is en- route to that city.
The market news service for fruits
and vegetables, with its many agents
and with assistance from railroad Off
Gals, gives daily a picture of market
conditions throughout the country for
both shipper and dealer and places
this picture in the form of typed re-
port In the hands of all persons inter-
ested. The bureau Of markets uses
leased wires to gather this informa-
ton and furnishes market news. In
