The fact that each team has won
twelve Of the twenty-five played,
there being one tie, adds extreme
interest to the game OF this year.
Moreover, there can be no denial
that the service teams are above
the usual standard this year. Both
teams when in their stride are
worthy to be pitted against the
best. The one object of the coaches
! Is to have them at their best when
they meet each other, and both
will be far stronger than in any
ether game Of their schedule
The Navy knows It has hard

not sized up the situation as Il

two are demanding the larger part
of the consideration. or course,
Navy scouts have seen the Army
team at work In every game this
year, but they also k-sow that the
Army has shown as little as posi-

There has been much speculation
here as to the status of Hewitt,
the big fuIlhack who starred with
Pittsburgh last year, at West
Point. This player was expected
to work havoc with opposing lines,
including the Nays, this season,
but he has been used very little,
not getting In the Yale game at
all. This is surprising as many
aexperts have stated that Hewitt

Dempsey Planning
Another Trip
Abroad

Jack Dempsey is going abroad
again after the holidays. The
heavyweight champion looks
like the only man in sight who
will be able to help Germany
out Of its financial difficulties.
Dempsey's financial future is AS
bright as that of the Bank of
England. With one stroke Of
his pen Jack could adjust all
this PREPARATION business.
Dempsey has nothing in sight
in his business until next sum-
mer. No more indoor fights
for the champion. They would
not be able to get enough
money at the gate Of an indoor

next fight will be out of doors

Chicken Eggs Important Source OF CasH
Income
Chicken eggs are source of cash income
to the farmer and often to the farmers wife
the Importance of which is brought home
when it is realized that about 1862, 100000
dozen chicken eggs were produced on farms
nj 1922, according to the estimates of the U;
IS. Department of Agriculture. But not all
of these were sold. Perhaps 100000 900 doz-
en- were set for the production of the chick
ems that were raised, besides the consump-
ton of eggs by the farmers families as food
The entire production of chicken eggs in l9zz
is valued at almost precisely $5OO,OOO,OOO
