"Swede" Obcrlander, famous Dartmouth football star, will be a welcome addition to the Big Ton grid game.
 The Western Conference, Ohio State in particular, is 10 be con- graduated on landing the outstand- ing football star of 1925.
 Oberlander is generally recognized as the one player largely responsible for the remarkable showing of Dartmouth last season.
 Proficient in every department of play. Oberlander is at his best at the forward passing game. In only one game, the contest with Brown, was he stopped last season.
 Aside from the prestige that will naturally go to Ohio State, because Ut will boast Oberand"r as T mem bor of its coaching staff, the team is sure to profit greatly by hls knowledge.
 Ohio State has needed q high-cla.s hackficl1 coach for years 10 assist Wilce and the addition of Obcr- lander appears to have supplied the long want.

STANLEY WORKS NOSE OUT
 MACHINE FIVE LE CAME
Traers Stage Hectic Struggle For Cellar Honors-P. X F. Corbin Quintet Takes One From Stanley Rule and Level Team-Oldtimers Star in First Contest Rule Shop Spurts in Second Half-Slim Crowd Witnesses Two Contests.

A battle on the basketball court in which the old timers showed the way to the youngsters, was staged last night In the first game of ln- dustrial league play between the Stanley Works and New Britain Machine qulntets with the Hinge Makers coming out on top by a 22 10 20 score.
 Jack Pelletier for the Butt Max CTS and Charley Miller for the losers demonstrated that experience counts a great deal although age keeps many a good man down. Pcl- letter. who not so many years ago did a beautiful job as guard on the National Guards teams, was respon- sble for 12 of his teams points through the medium Of six field goals while Miller, one of New Brit aims best a number ot years ago, although only playing in the second half, southpaWed four field goals and one foul for q total of nine points.
 The first half saw the players on both teams doing some tall guard ing and the baskets were few and far between. Two field baskets and foul shot were the best that the Machine company could offer while pelletier scored all except one point of the Stanley Works nine in this frame.
 Second Half
 The second half saw Miller come into the game and straightway, the Machiners started to speed things up. Little hy little they crcpt up on their opponents until the score stood tied at % all with only q min ute 10 go. Then, Pat O'Brien came around the side to take a pass from Pelletier and score the winning goal for his team.
 Jimmy Maher and Anderson worked well for the Machine com pany on the floor while John Schroeder gave 3 neat exhibition Of guarding and O'Bricn worked q wonderful floor game.

 At a meeting in New York Stewart said he suggested to Harding, the peo- pie might misconstrue the Daugherty appointment but the president insist ed even though there might be men who would make more practical ap- pointees; he valued friendship above everything else.

STRAWBERRY RATES REDUCED
Effective on May First a Substantial
Saving for Growers and Shippers

Growers and shippers of strawber-
ries on the Del-Mar-Va Peninsula will
be interested in the announcement
made by the Traffic and Transporta-
ton Department of the Del-Mar-Va
Eastern Shore Association to the eff
feet that a material reduction is Of
fered by the American Railway Ex-
press Company, in shipment of berries
this year. The Association calls at
tention to the new commodity tariff
on fruits and vegetables filed by the
Express Company, effective May 81,
which provides for reductions on
strawberry shipments ranging from
ten and one-half cents to twenty-sev-
en- and one-half cents per 100 pounds,
or a reduction which will total from
S2700 to $41.25 per car. AS illustra-
tion of effect from shipping points on
the Peninsula, the following reduc-
tions are mentioned: rates to Boston,
Mass.,f from Delaware-Maryland points
reduced thirteen and one-half cents
and from Virginia points fourteen and
one-half cents per 100 pounds. To
Providence, r. l., reduced from Del
aware-M Maryland points twenty-seven
and one-half cents and from Virginia
points twenty-four and one-half cents
per 100 pounds. Corresponding re-
ductions apply to Buffalo, N. ", Clev-
Gland, Ohio; Detroit, Mich; Portland,
Me-; Pittsburgh, Pa; Rochester, NY;
Scranton, Pa; Toledo, Ohio, and
Wheeling, w. Va. The Del-Mar-Va
Eastern Shore Association points out
that this will mean very substan-
tial saving for the growers and ship
pers this season as the new rates may
be taken advantage Of, owing to late
ness Of crop. This is the largest re
duction in many years.

grain to each 100 birds until they put
on the desired amount Of flesh. If
birds are fat, and have not laid much
throughout the winter, they should be
given considerably more hash than
grain as a means of stimulating egg
production. In the care of the young
stock, Mr.. Palmer states that consid-
cradle damage is done to the growing
chicks by failure to adjust the venti-
lation to take care of the wide range
in temperature at different times dur
ing the day. To keep from chilling
or overheating the chicks, it is neces-
sary to adjust the windows or cur
tains at least four times day. The
importance of green food for the
growing chicks is also being strongly
emphasized by Mr.. Palmer in his re-
port for March. Until the chicks are
old enough to get out and pick their
own green food, it is advisable to give
them one or two meals each day of
finely chopped clover or alfalfa or
some other equally tender and palat-
able green feed. Starting on the
fourth day, the chicks may be fed
about one pint Of the chopped green
food to three hundred birds, and this
amount may be increased as the
chicks grow older. Now is the time
to sow something for summer green
food if you have not already made
such arrangements, is another very
timely suggestion given out by the
Poultry Specialist. Poultry raisers in
general are also being cautioned to
not allow their laying hens to have
free range on rape at this season Of
the years, if the eggs are to be ship
ped to the New York City markets.
An excessive amount of rape will
cause the egg yolks to become a very
dark yellow and frequently this por-
ton Of the egg will have greenish
tinge which is very Objectionable to
the buyers and consumers.
