The narrow gorge over which it

However, the girls did find won

They opened up the trails to the

VEGETABLES GIVEN
AWAY BY FARMERS.
New York City Markets Flooded
With Vegetables.

There was such an abundance of
green produce at the farmers markets
in this city last week that the farm
ers had to virtually give il away, ac-
cording to the weekly Farmers Mar
ket Report, issued yesterday by DR..
Eugene II. Porter, State Commission
err of Foods and Markets. Vegetables
OF every variety we're sold at sacrifice
prices, the report said, and many of
the farmers we're forced to take their
loads back home, give them away or
dump them Last Friday, in particular
the high cost of living fell into the
cellar as regards vegetables, but New
York was asleep at the switch
"Beets sold Friday for 2 cents a
bunch, carrots to 1 1-2 cents a
bunch and lettuce from 40 to so cents
barrel" the report said peas sold
for IS cents to 81 barrel, radishes
from 1-2 to 1 cent bunch and spinach
from 25 to so cents a crate These
low prices prevailed late in the morn
ing, when farmers found themselves
left with goods unsold The early
morning prices were somewhat higher.
Even potatoes, which have been
high for months, had dropped and
could be bought at wholesale for
$3.50 to SO barrel. One dealer at one
of the farmers markets offered to bet
a suit of clothes that potatoes would
go down to SIS barrel in three weeks.
These conditions prevailed at Wall
about Market in Brooklyn and Gan
sevoort and Harlem markets in Man
haitian. The best Long Island cabbage
which scared in price last winter, sold
at the Brooklyn market for penny a
head 1t was not until the farmers
found that persons would not buy
even at ridiculously low prices, the
report declared. that they began dis
pensing the green goods gratis of
hauling it back to the farm for pig
fodder.

CUBA, WORLDS
SUGAR BOWL"
So Called Because She Raises
More Than One-third Worlds
Sugar. Java Island Second.

Because she produces nearly one
third of the worlds sugar, Cuba has
been called ''the worlds sugar bowl. y
There is another sugar bowl" on the
opposite side of the earth, The is
land of Java, which produces about
half as much sugar as does the Queen
of the Antilles.
Territorially, Java is somewhat the
larger, her area being about $4,000
square miles, while that of Cuba is
but IL ,655 Cuba's area of arabic land,
however, is 15,5OO,OOO acres against
but 10000 900 for her volcanic and
mountainous sister From these small
Ter resources Java supports 3O,09S,O00
people as against Cuba's 2,406, III,
the density of population in the is
lands being over 600 and less than 60
per square mile respectively.
Cuba, owing to the greater pro-
ductivity to her labor and with more
modern equipment, supports her peo-
pie on a higher standard of living
than does Java with her primitive me-
thods and appliances. Real wages in
all lands after all are merely matter
of production, and it is mistake to
think labor is cheap merely because
it is low-priced.
Through Java's area of cultivable
land is smaller than Cuba's it is as is
common in volcanic regions exceed
ngly fertile She raises 3s.44 tons of
cane per acre against 20 in Cuba, and
the cane seems richer, as she gets
slightly more sugar per ton of cane
and more than twice as much per acre.

PITT AND PENN STATE
 STRUGGLE TOA ADRAW

Pittsburg, November 25.-The Pennsyl- vania State College football team, la vofed to win over the University or Pittsburg. was held to a scoreless tie by the Partners at Forbes field here today. More than 35,oo0 person, the largest crowd in the history of the field, Wit nesed the battle. which was a fight tc whistle. Neither Penn State nor Pitt have been deefated on the grldiron this season.
 Pitt threatened to score twice and only once did Penn advance to within str.k- ing distance of the goal. In the first period Penn State played an open game, but Pitt resorted to straight football tc advance. The Partners had the ball on the eight-yard line when the period ended.
 In the opening of the second half Da- vie tried for field goal from placement, but the ball went wide. Late in the second period Davies, handspring of the Pitt machine, was injured and he gave way to Byers, who played a wonderful game at left half.
 In the second period killinger fumb1ed and Anderson recovered on the State 45-yard line for Pitt. The Partners then made three first downs on line plunges, but lost the ball on tumble on the lo- yard line Penn advanced to the Pitt 10-yard line ins the last period, but on the fourth down with three to go, Way was tackled for one-yard loss and the Panthers took the ball. The field was q sea of mud and the backs found it hard to handle the ball, which was slippery. A summary of the game shows that Pitt made more first downs than State and that Davies and Byers outkicked Hess of the Penn eleven. Way, Haines and kii- finger starred for State, while Davies Anderson and Byers played a fine brand of football.
 The lineup:
 Penn State-Brown, left end; Beck, lef1 tackle; Griffiths, left guard; Bentz, cen ter; Hess (captain), right guard; Rauch' right tackle; Hufferd, right end; kiilin- ger, uuarterback; Haines, left half; way right half; Shell, fullbacS.

DESPITE RESISTANCE OF AGGIES, ALABAMA
 WINS GAME, 24 TO 7
For First Time This Year. Field Goal Successfully Ex ecuted When Tally OConnor's Toe Boots Pigskn Between Bars From 25-Yard Line-Stephen- son Plays His Usual Stellar Game-For-
 ward Passes Feature

In spite of the terrific fight of the Aggies, fight more de- termined than the "A to ' score would indicate, the University of Alabama Crimsons won their last Dixie gridiron battle of the season at Redwood park yesterday afternoon.
 Completely outplayed in the first half, the Aggies came back strong in the third period and staged a rally that threatened to tie the score. After pushing across one touchdown, however, the Aggies faltered and Ala bama again took the offensive, never to be halted again.
 At least three plays were executed in the battle yesterday that have not been attempted or carried out before this season. One, a trick guard over guard formation. ne4ted Alabama her first touchdown, when Capt Sid Johnston was given the ball. he passing the pikskin along to Ben Hunt, who plunged across the Aggy defense for a yard or two of needed territory to reach the Aggy goal. Another brilliant play was the one ex- ecuted by the AgSies. Alabama had just surrendered the ball to A. X NJ. on the the Aggies' 5-yard line It seemed inn possible for the Mississippians to, do otherwise than punt and Davis, Aggy quarterback, drew back behind his goal line as if in prepara tion to kick. h. stead, the ball was snapped to one side within the arms of Left Halfbacl1 Hougii. who plunged the center of the line for 25 yards, while the Crmsons broke through ill anticipation of breaking up punt It was a beautiful play.
 A FIELD GOAL AT LAST
 The third play executed at Redwood for the first time this year was a plain, everyday field goal. There's nothing pe- culiar or sensational about field goal. but the fact that out of the many tried, not one drop kick had sailed between the bars previous to yesterday, adds to Talty O'Connor's feat of booting q per feet goal from the 25-yard line little sensational, particularly as Talty's at tempt was the last Of the season, as Redwood witnessed it's last gridiron struggle of the year yesterday.
 Both Alabama and A. & M. resorted to the forward pass frequently, especially in the second half when the Aggies turned the tables on Coach Seott's squad and executed an aerial attack that was extremely hard for the Crinssons to meet Several perfect passes fell from the arms of Aggy backs and ends. which, had they been caught would surely have resulted in touchdownsY One time Tay- Tor. left end played over by the side lines, many wards from the remaipder Of the team.
