Central Making
 Ready for Game

Central is rapidly getting into shape for it's game with the eleven from the Hills of Jasper here Saturday evening. The Crimson eleven came out of the Jefferson game in fair shape, Gs no man was injured in this battle. There are still some of the men who are bearing scars of other games or scrimmages, however. and are sun unabIe to put their best playing into the game. These are Lahan, who has been out of the game for the last two or three weeks with fallen arches and who received an- other injury last Saturday on the head when he was put in during the last half of the game, and Rush Simpson, who has been out with cold and a bad foot for about week, but is expected back
 in a day or so. There are still others to keep them out of the game and prac- tice. These are Rox, Lillian and NJ.
 Yielding.
 Coach Meyers has one serious problem before him before the Bessemer game, which comes off the 18th of this month. That is to fill the hole at guard made by the loss of Speigle, who broke his collar bone in a scrimmage. The Jefferson backs gained practically at will over this hole and were only stoppel by the great defensive work of Captain Me Neil. This hole must be plugged at once if the Crimson expects to wave victo- rious over the Tigers on the eve of No vember IS.
 There has been no fault found with the Crimson bacSfeld this year. In Al- derson and Hood, Coach Meyers has TWO quick thinkers and good, broken field runners. There are three good men run ming at full and there is little difference in their work Two of them, Lillfon and Simpson, have been practically ipvin- cible this season.

Besser,1er Tigers
 Ready for Aggies

There has been much interest aroused in Bessemer over the, game in which Bessemer goes out of her class anc plays Albertville on the rolling mill ground Friday. The fact that neither team has been defeated this year and that the rival communities are backing their elevens to win adds more excite ment to this game.
 Coach Harris is confident that the Tigers can defeat the Aggies and is working his men hard for the game Friday and expects to have his entire team in the best of condition for this tilt.
 The fact that neither team has been scored on this season will be another interesting side light to, this battle, and if the Tigers can come out of this affair with their goal line uncrossed, they will have the inside track to the state title.
 Albertviile tiaimed the same title last year and tried to arrange post sea- son games with Bessemer and Cen tral. but the latter schools refused to play her on the ground that the Az gfes were not in their class. Now the aAggies again enter claim for the title.
 In the game Friday the state title will be in no way in danger and will be left for the three local teams, Ems ley. Central and Bessemer, to fight 1t out for the ri ght to claim this honor, for this district, with other teams of fering competition also.

Simpson Meets
 Shelby Count,

The Junior Panthers will journey to foreign fields Friday and will take on the strong Shelby County High at Columbiana. The eleven will be minus their coach on this trip on the account of the illness of George Reynolds. This will place the team at disadvantage to start off with, but they are deter mined that this shall not hamper their game against Shelby
 Pete Session, brother If tbe famous Tram of Alabama. will be in charge Of the team while they are away on this trip. With the return of the most of their varsity men from the hospital list, the eleven is determined to do an that is in their power to not let another eleven trod their goal, which was SC dlsasterously crossed during the game with the Ensley Yellow Jackets. This defeat still rankles in the breast of the Junior PanShers and they will try to get revenge on the rest of the elevens that they play this year.
 Though the reports from the lair of the Shelby gridiron warriors have been few and meager. they are of the nature that the Columbiana boys are preparing to give the Simpson eleven a warm reception and are expecting to store the Panther scalps in their belts with the rest of their victims

Virginia 10 Meet Georgia
 11 Saturday

Charlottesville, ya.,. November 2-tSpe- cial)-The University of Virginia foot ball team came out of the Harvard game Saturday without serious injury of any kind and has begun work in practice for the important contest with Georgia on Lambeth field Saturday. Only light sig nal drill was held Monday afternoon. A scrimmage with the second string team was held Tuesday and the varsity con tinued to show strength on the offense, particularly in the use of extended for nations for forward passes
 Coach Warren plans to continue hard scrimmages Wednesday and Thursday with a final light workout Friday. The importance of the game with the Georgia Crackers is fully realized, particularly af- ter the Georgians defeat of the strong Auburn team. The virginians have ex- hbited increasing strength since the " M. I. defeat and the showing against Harvard when the orange and blue gained more first downs than did the Harvard eleven. coupled with the sue cess of the aerial attack and the stub born defense of the line is most, en- couraging to Virginia supporters.
 Last year at Athens Virginia was barely able, to obtain to tie, Rinehart's run in the last quarter staving off defeat. The team is fully 60 per cent stronger this year.
 Virg;nas light backfield has shown unusual strength, the work of Zundel and Rinehart being particularly good in the games so far. Witt and Darlington have displayed excellent generalship in running the team from quarter. Rus sell can be relied upon in pinch for a drop kick which the Georgians recall with regret, The present Virginia line was able to bear the heavy onslaughts of the Harvard team, pushing the Grim son backs to make the required 10 yards in four downs and taking the ball from them on several occasions

YeHolu Jackets
 Meet Guin Tear,

There will be mighty battle pwaged on the T. c. I. field at Ensley Friday, when the Yellow Jackets lock horns with the gridiron warriors of Guin High
 Ensley will enter this game with the odds favoring her and should come out of it with the large end of the score but she will have to battle from start to finish, as the Guin boys showed that they have a strong line when they de- feated Simpson High by the score of 5 to 3. The Junior Partners carried the ball time after time almost to their enemies goal line, but here the Guin line resembled stone wall and held the Junior Panthers for downs and kicked out of danger.
 The Yellow Jackets will have to watch a certain MT. Wesley, the boy with the educated toe who was the main cause of the Junior Panthers' deefat at the hands of the Guin lads. If Guin gets the pigskin on Ensleys 30-yard line the Yel- low Jackets better beware, for he will most likely drop it over the cross bars for three points for his eleven.
 With the entire Jacket backfield in good shape for this game, Ensley should be able to tear the line of the lads from Guin to shreds and cross their goal The local critics also will find this game in teresting, as they will see if the impress sions that they have formed concerning
 le playing ol ceitAln Btti .duais whom they are watching for ali-state honors are correct.
 The Ensley line should be able to stop the rush of the opposing backs, as the latter are a bunch of light hitting put fast men. It will be interesting to watch the two rival quarters trying to out guess each other in the use of the Ala baina shift, as both teams have been using it in their games this year

Don't Buy .Pork-Can It.

\ There's profit in selling pigs and
buying pork-but not for the farmer
who follows this prictice. The far
mer's most profitable course is to kill.
cure and can enough pork for his
own use and sell any additional
amounts which he can produce and
for which there is a demand. The
practice Of home curing pork has
suffefed thru neglect but it is now
being revived, according to the
bureau of animal industry and the
states relations service. These two
bureaus are cooperating to en-
courage the general adoption of this
wholesome usage among, farmers.
Home cured pork, scraple, pork pud-
ding, sausage, canned pork, head
cheese, and lard are among the foods
which the farmer should get from
his own cellar ishelves and not from
the city market. All transportation
costs and commissions remain IN his
pockets.
Canning preserves pork with fresh
lavors and lessons the toll and time
incident to some ofNthe older ways OF
curing the product. Besides being
rapid and simple, the new process
saves pounds of pork for all periods
Of the year which formerly had to be
eaten soon after slaughter or be
wasted.

CINE has the advantage, for usual

while steam outfit also requires a

/ The amount of work done per day

clay is a soil particularly difficult to
work, and a sandy subsoil often
causes trouble. In very hard sub

7renching Machines
Proving Profitable

To the farmer contemplating tile
laying. to whom the saving of time
is an important item, and who finds
labor difficult to secure, trenching
machinery is recommended in prefer
ence to hand labor by the depart
mept Of agriculture. which has in
vested the performance, of ma

inexpensive ditching plows to costly
power excavators and trenchfng by
machinery is not materially different
from that of hand work, according to
the departments investigators, there
fore the chief advantages liel in the
dispatch with which work can be
done and the ability to dispense with
manual labor.
If a landowner expects to lay as
much as 100 rods of tile drain in
soil which would require picking but
which contains no rock, he is justi-
fled in buying a ditching pillow cost
ing as much as $40. If he proposes
to construct 1900 rods of tile drain

roots, he can well afford to purchase
a horse-drawn trenching pillow cost
ing from $500 to $500, or possibly
more. II the owner feels he can sell
his machine for $500 when his ditch
ing is completed, he is justified in
purchasing one for digging as little
as 1000 rods Of drain.
Ipuact poapf lIctified
For installing as much as 5000
rods in soil free from rock, stumps,
and large roots, the investment Of
$4,000 in a power driven trenching
machine probably is justified, as
Stunning that it could be sold later
for one-half original cost. Machines
costing over $4,000 are usually suit
able only for contractors, owners of
large plantations, and others having
an unusual amount of trenching to

HIS VALIANT WAR ssTEEDs.

numbers of horses sent overseas to

But there are two equine heroes of

the comforts and delights of q life
of peace and leisure at Fort Sam

Coastal Cities Consume Much More
Sea Foods Than Others.
In our coastal cities there is a.
highly developed taste for sea food,
but. like the ethics Of Confucius, it
is based on the worship OF ances-
tors. says the Nations Business.
When the first settlers came to these
shores few centuries ago they were
used to eating cod and haddock and
mackerel and O few other kinds, and
they went on eating them. Their de-
scendants are eating them still. And
the worst Of It, they won't eat any,
thing else in the way Of fish. The
bureau Of fisheries has again and
again published impressive lists Of
the valuable food fishes which swim
in our coastal waters, but which the
fishermen must throw away because
there is no market for them.
AS you go inland, the problem
becomes still more embarrassing
Even such staple fish as. the had

Factors That Make
100 Pounds of Milk

A two-year study of the cost of milk
production undertaken Comparatively
by the United States dairy division
and Purdue University, on a number
of dairy farms in northwestern Ind
lana, has resulted in figures on the
requirements for producing 100
pounds of milk in winter and in sum
mer. To give permanent value to the
results, these requirements were de-
termined in pounds of feed. hours of
labor etc., and by substituting pres
ent costs and values for the various
items farmer can determine very
closely what it is costing him to pro-
duce 100 pounds of milk at the pres
ent time.
In the summer months the require
ments for 100 pounds of milk were as
follows: Concentrates,<20 pounds, dry
roughage, 27.4 pounds; silage and 9TH
er succulent roughage, COL pounds;
hauling and grinding concentrates.
$O.014; pasture, 0.04 arce: human Ia
Dor, 20 hours; horse labor, OF hour;
overhead and other costs, $500.
In the winter months the require
ments for production were: Concen-
trates. 1856 pounds; dry roughage.
66.s pounds; silage and other succu-
lent roughage, 147.6 pounds; hauling
and grinding concentrates, 5000; bed
ding, 20.3 pounds: human labor, 2.5
hours; horse labor, 0.3 hour; over
head and other costs, $0.S85.
1t has been generally believed that
the cost of producing milk was con-
siderably higher in winter months
than in summer; and while this holds
true as far as the gross cost Is con-
cerned. the figures obtained in this
Investigation show that the net cost
Of producing 100 pounds of milk from
November to April was only 1.S per
cent higher than the cost from May
to October. inclusive. and that the
total cost varied only slightly from
month to month within each of these
seasons. This small difference be-
tween net costs Of production during
winter and summer Is largely due to
the greater credit allowed for manure
during the winter season.
The price received for the milk.
however. fluctuated sharply from
month to month.
