Local Gridiron Product to
Lead Blue and Gold
in Football

University Of Delaware will be
led on the gridron next year by John
d. (Jack) Williams, the line crushing
full back of the team this year. The
election of a captain for next seasons
team was held yesterday and Will
liams was the most popular candi-
date. It is unusual for Sophomore
to be elected as captain of the eleven
but there were no Junior men among
those who are letter men and eligible
for the office. Williams was green"
material when he turned out for the
football team two years ago but IN
his service with the Blue and Gold he
has developed into one Of the best line
cracking backs ever turned out at the
institution. The newly elected cap
tain is a product of Newark High
School.
The election took place Immediately
after the formal presentation OF the
varsity ''D" to first string men OF the
past season in college hour yesterday
morning. Dean E. Laurence Smith,
'96, president of the athletic council,
gave the letters out. The men re-
ceiving them were: Captain Holton
Captain-elect Williams, Akin, Price
McKelvie, Lilly, Schaeffer, Young
Jackson, Rothrock, Hurf, Goftigan
and Manager Louis Roemer.

PROSPECTS OF N. H. S.
BASKETBALL TEAM
Coach Mcdonald Has Hard
Proposition to Solve

TTOpOSllloll W ooAvS
Coach Mcdonald, of the Newark
High School basketball team, is
working hard to get the team in
shape for the season.
Although three varsity men have
graduated there has been large
number of candidates to report for
practice who are showing up well.
Captain Hopkins, Henning and
Crompton are the only varsity men
left from last year. Hayes and
Schwartz are out of the game this
season on account of injuries received
in football a few weeks ago.
The local boys have hard schedule
before them this year. Their first
game was played Friday, December
16, with Friends School, Wilmington
the latter team winning 20 to 9. The
liJewark High boys tussled for The
championship OF the State last yeal
and are out this year to make still
better showing.

Brilliant Electric
Sign Has Few Lights

An electric sign recently tried out
with success replaces the individual
lamps in the rim of the letter with
small mirror refectors, according to
Popular Mechanics. These reflect the
light supplied by two 25-watt lamps,
placed near tn ecenter of the letter
and fitted with opaque caps, so as to
be invisible from the front. An ar
rangement of this kind will effect
considerable saving in lamp renewals
and current consumption.

been UP to the standard set when
many fast games were staged on

Eastern Shore teams have reported

as yet nothing definite has been done,
but with a population of several hun

tors, Newark cannot afford to stay
"asleep at the switch" much longer.
To make a success of ball club
finances are needed and this is one
of the items that looms big in the
"Army of Discouragement" and which
has kept many local fans from put

In all sports of international COM

mems golf, the United States reigns
supreme. Even in mems golf honors
would seem to rest with Uncle Sam,

FOREIGNERS SENDING
VAST RELIEF HOME
Over 80 Per Cent of Food Drafts
Sent to Europe Gifts From
Immigrant Population.

Out of their earnings, for the most
part as unskilled laborers, living from
hand to mouth, the forelgn-born ele-
ment In the United States Is contribut-
ing largely to the funds for food sup
plies to aid the starving peoples Of
their native lands.
Figures from the Food Draft section
Of the American Relief Administration
show that s593,110 had been sent to
Poland, up to the end Of November.
S15S,170 had been sent to Czecho
Slovakia, Hungary had received $780,
100, Germany had 81, 44S,619 and Aus
tria s2,046720. 1t was estimated that
more than 90 per cent of this money
had been spent by nationals of these
various countries who are now In the
United States. There are about 1,500,-
600 Poles, 100000 Hungarians, 100000
Czechs and 100000 Slovaks in this
country.
The profits which resulted from the
sale Of these food drafts have been
turned into the fund for general child
feeding. 1t is to bring this fund up to
the point where 1t can meet the de-
mands on 1t. to save the lives Of $780,.

VALUE OF COTTON
SEED AS FERTILIZER
Seed for Fertilizers Not Eco
nomic, Says Authority.

Atlanta, Ga. - February. - It would
be mistake to use cotton seed as
fertilizer. as some farmers are talking
Of doing, according TO J. N. Harper,
several years in experiment station
work IN the South, and now director Of
the Soil Improvement Committee. Con-
tinuing he says:
1T would be q mistake for two rea-
sons: First, the South would be de-
prived Of a great wealth producing
substance cottonseed oil; and sec
ond. cotton seed are not the best form
Of fertilizer TO apply.
"On the first point, while 1t Is un.
fortunate that tho vegetable oil market
is off and the oil miller cannot offer
what the seed are really worth, It 10
better to accept what the miller can
afford to give than to allow the oil 10
be destroyed when It is needed 30
much especially in starving Europe.
ITO use cotton seed as a fertilizer
is to throw away the oil of the seed,
for oil Is not plant food; in fact, It is
believed that It viii retard plant
growth.
Cotton seed contain plant food, but
when the seed are applied, 1t is not
possible to scatter 1t so as to feed
the crop properly. It puts the plant
food on the land In humps as repre-
scented by the seed.
1T takes the seed a long time to
decay and become plant food. In fact,
no great amount of the plant food in
cotton seed is ever actually used by
the crop. AS evidence of this, we cite
Farmers Bulletin 286 Of the United
States Department of Agriculture, page
s, from which we quote: The seeds
are incased in hulls which must de
cay before the crop can utilize the
plant food In them, and the kernels
contain oil which is supposed to retard
their decomposition, SO that consider.
able moisture is required to decompose
the seed and make available the plant
food. In case of very dry season,
It does not become available fast
enough to supply the crop, and no
doubt a portion of 1t fails to become
available until after the crop natures.
"A table on page 8 Of this bulletin
shows that difference Of 303 lbs.
of seed cotton per acre in favor OF
cotton seed meal as compared with
cotton seed, was obtained in test
where twice as much cotton seed was
used as meal.
South Carolina Experiment Station
tests and tests Of four other southern
states show that q pound of a well
balanced mixed fertilizer will produce
pound and more of seed cotton. A
test In Alabama shows that 1t took
8 pounds of cotton seed to produce q
pound of seed cotton.

EUROPEANS PLEADING
FOR THEIR CHILDREN
Elder Generation Sacrifices Self
That Hope Of Future May
Receive Means Of Life.

The one optimistic note in the de-
perate need prevailing through the war
torn areas Of eastern Europe is the ex.
traordinary and touching faith Of the
people In the children. The elder gen.
GRAFTON has put ell Its hope and trust
In the future Of the generation now In
its early years. In fact, In many In
stances It is deliberately sacrificing IL
self for the children. the Europe Of to-
morrow.
In the war-ravaged districts supplies
necessary for maintenance of Inst
tutions are lacking, but II has been
noted that always the request for out
side aid emphasizes the needs Of the
orphanages. How marked Is this In
clination was indicated by the fact
that one district Of Poland the au-
thorities, appealing to an American re-
lief organization for assistance. asked
assistance for only one military hos
pital, four general hospitals and twen-
ty orphanages.
The appeal has reached America
with the result that because they know
that literally millions of European chill
dren face starvation and death from
disease unless the aid that only this
country can give is Forthcoming, eight
great American relief agencies have
banded together under the name of the
European Relief Council to raise $685.
100000 needed to tide the baby genera
ton of Europe over possibly the most
critical winter 1t has yet faced. These
are the American Relief Administration,
the American Red Cross, the American
Friends Service Committee (Quakers),

tee, the Federal Council of Churches

CUT COTTON COST
BY MAKING FOOD
Southern Farm Prosperity Absolutely

tlon Cost Through Food.

Atlanta, Ga.-(Special.)- IA right

sary II the farmers Of the South are
to get on safe. firm ground again."
said H. @. Hastings, President Of the
great Southeastern Fair.
1T looks as II we all went cotton
crazy last spring, despite all the dan.
ger signals flying and the disregard
Of plain facts as to costs Of cotton
production. We have repeated our FOL.
lies of 1911 and 1914 and piled up
debts based on costly food and grain
to be paid for by cotton that Is now
below cost OF production.
with few exceptions those items
OF food and grain could and should
have been produced on home acres
at one-third to one-half what the sup
ply merchant charges for them.
Cotton is the one best money crop
for the South, and probably always
will be. The time of war prices is
over and the problem from now on is
to lower cost Of production and at the
same time afford the cotton grower
fair profit.
Cost Of making cotton is primarily
the cost Of food, grain and forage
for the farmer. his family, his labor
ers or tenants, and his work stock.
Cutting food, grain and forage costs
by home production will reduce cot.
ton costs from one-third to one-half.
PLANT for an abundance OF food,
grain and forage, thus cutting down
store bills, and the lower prices for
cotton will not hurt 80 much. We can
not, with European countries so thor
oughly disorganized, reasonably expect
high prices for cotton for several years
and we must make cotton at lower
cost, or else quit cotton growing.
Most Of US cannot quit cotton.
