Ten Football Games
On the Schedule
For Army Eleven

WEST POINT, March 13.-The Army
football schedule, made public here to-
day, shows clearly that the cadets plan
for restoration of the gridiron game
upon pre-war basis next autumn. Ten
contests are listed, with the opening
game set for the last Saturday in Sep
tember, and the schedule will close
with the struggle against the Navy at
the Polo Grounds. New York City, on
November 20.
But one intersectional game ap-
pears upon the 1919 schedule, Notre
Dame being played here on November
8. Other strong teams to be met in
clude Syracuse. Tufts and Springfield.
The cadets regret that the Academy
regulations did not permit the accept
ance of the offer of game with Hsr-
ward at Cambridge, but the meeting
with the Navy, the first since 1916, lifts
the schedule to the usual high standard
of normal seasons.
The schedule follows:

Willand-Dempsey
Bout May Be Fought
In aris, Is Belief

PARIS, March 1S.-Sportng circles
here are keenly aroused over reports
that the Jack Dempsey-Jess Willard
fight may be staged in Paris. Pro-
moters here have watched with great
interest the difficulties encountered
by "Tex" Rickard in America in get
ting a place for the bout and in the
prospect that the bout may not be
held in the United States. Offers will
be made to Rickard soon, if they have
not already reached him.
The promoters here argue that Paris
with its big floating American and
British population at present would
be q better place than either Jaurez
or Havana, if the bout goes out of
America. Higher prices could be OBJ
tanned for seats than before the war.
1t is figured that seats that sold for
$50 for the Johnson Moran bout would
bring 500 now.
A high army official informed The
Associated Press to-day that the
Dempsey Willard fight would not be
held in the United States, adding:
"There is one man who can stop
the fight in America"
The officer refused to divulge the
name of the man, but said Willard
was not very popular in the army ow-
ing to his attitude during the war
and his refusal to give his services
to the Red Cross and the various SOL
der benefits.
Boxing is Aourishing in Paris at
present, and the Knights of Columbus
and the Y. NJ. c. A. are holding weekly
shows, in which Americans are pitted
against British and French. The su-
periority of the Americans, which
English and the colonials, at leas,
over the French, to whom boxing is
a comparatively new sport, is not in
evidence.

A Fly Campaign

To every Man, Woman, Boy and
Girl in Morgan Co:
Will you join the Fly Campaign
This good W, rk would bring res ults
that we oil would enjoy. Flies are
our enc mics and We should by all
means get rid of them. They are
Z easy, u get rid Of, it we keep siTaR
an active warfare on them. The
greatest weapon we can use is clean
illness.
The mem bers of the Boys Corn
Clubs can do full mans share In
helping their fathers get rid OF
ninety per cent of the flies that in
va lie their homes by starting with
cleaning the barn, pig pen and other
filthy pi Ices around the home. No
one can make better fly trap than
a boy, or better help dad" to
screen the house.
The latter part of March, or when
the first warm spring days come, is
the best time to begin the fight ON
flies. OF course, it must be kept up
every week or the enemy will sure
ly win the battle. -..
Every girl can do full woman's
share by helping mother clean the
house. Especially since she knows
it is just as much disgrace to have
flies as it is to have bed bugs In the
nome. The best formula for house
cleqning is water, soap, "elbOw
crease, with generous supply Of
sunshine and fresh air. Ones good
j ,dgment will prompt them how of
ten during each month this formula
must be applied.

new wealth each year into the country of approximately $50 oo0oo,0W These statements were made by James J. Hli Howard Elliott and others some 10 years ago. They were statements based upon what was assumed to be normal prices for farm products. Of course since the war began high prices have prevailed and that in addition to increased pro- duction. has made it possible Tor the Washington authorities to report that the aggregate money value of the crops In the year 1918 was $500, 900 greater than the money value of earlier crops The total figure is placed at sl4soo .ooo,Ooo in round numbers. This is approximately the money value of the crops which MT. Hill and MT Elliott said some years ago should be obtained each year by the American farmers. How rapidly me money value has grown is demonstrated by the fact that the value in money or the crop harvested in 1918 was douol. the average value for each year between 1912 and 1916.

 HER LIFE, SHE SAYS
Mrs. Perry Could Not Walk Across Room-Her Re- covery Astonishes
 Friends

My frienus are so astonished at my recovery that l just tell them I'm taking Tanlac, which is enough to account for my being so we'll" said Mrs. E. l.. Perry, of 1901 Eighth avenue, south. Nashville, Tenn.
 "I suffered from such awful attacks of nervous indigestion she continued. that I became really afraid another attack would be my last, for they would almost kill me. I had suffered for over a year with these attacks and got so could eat nothing but milk and toast even a drink of water would distress me, and at night I could hardly sleep for the smothering spells that would all most stop my breath. My limbs would become numb and chilled all through, night sweats weakened me till I couldn't walk across the room and I lay almost helpless in bed for three months.
 "One of my friends told me how much Tanlac has helped her, so I started talk ing it. and before long I was eating just anything and feeling much better: my strength began to return and I have been gaining ever since. I can go any where I want, do all my homework, 1 sleep like child and get up in the mornings feeling fine.'

EVERY BUSHEL OF
 WHEAT NEEDED
By Holland

New York, February 4-(Special )-Her- statement that he has discovered since he has been in Europe that every bushel of our wheat surplus will be taken by our allies during the present year But that is not all. They will need many mil lion bushels of oats so that it will be essential for the United States still to conserve our supply of wheat and other cereals. In fact, MT Hoover is quoted as having sent word to this city that the European bread cereal demand will be continued until July l. At that time it will be possible to estimate in a general way the amount that is to be harvested next summer and early next fall.
 The prediction which will be made in the early summer of our wheat harvest and later our corn harvest will be of interest not only to MT. Hoover and oth- CTS who are to continue the work of sup plying Europe with the needed food, but also to those who are looking forward to improvement in the securities market situation and in fact in general business conditions. For it is assumed that if
 
 and if readjustment conditions are favor able, the probabilities are strong that a great increase in security market trans actions will begin early in July
 Again the American farmers are to be relied upon for providing cereal food and probably some kinds of meat, especially pork, in sufficient quantities to meet the needs of Europe. Fortunately the farmer has abundant facilities now for increas- ing the food supply. He has developed traction blowing to an extent not realized by any excepting those who have wit messed the recent greater agricultural cultivation, espec ally in the far west He is using the new harrow to great advantage and also various other farm ing implements, some of which are of re- cent invention. Petrol farm tractors have been so perfected that they are now ca pablo of driving all the implements as well as the various types Of blows. It was recently said by one of high authority that the wonderful progress in land tillage that Las been made in the past three or four years, is due ir part to the necessities of the war, and can be traced directly to the petrol trac- tor, which appears to be destined to lead to most important agricultural develop ment in the United States. It is in fac, a forerunner of another advance in civil zation."
