KOHLEMAINENS, RUNNERS, ARE VEGETARIAN 8. A ' 7 A a' t " I x . ' I 1 " Here's something about the two famous Kohleuiainen brothers, Bill, the professional, and Ilan-ue-i, the simon pure, that many followers of sports perhaps don't knowthe pair are vegetarians. Neither one has eaten any meat for more than four years. Bill got the vegetable habit from Ousta LJungstrom, the Swedish professional, who ran some sensational rates here in 100S. Bill Induced Hnnnes to be come a vegetarian, and the pair are ardent devotees of the so called fad. When Martin Sheridan heard the Kohlemnlnens were vegeta rians the great all around athlete chirped, "Begorra, I wonder how fast they could run if they ever had a square meal under tbeir belts."

The olijeet of the I It C Service Bu reau Is the promotion of agricultural education, and a co-onoration which will tend to raise the -whole tone of commercial, Industrial and farm life. Since agriculture Is the t.asis of pros perity find progress, nsrura'ly frm proi'lpms claim first attention. Thealra h:- h- r ef.lciency, both on and off the farm. To do a fcig work a big organization Is m cps?ary.

It Is no longer a theory that If we sre to get. the most out of life we must raise, more per acre, "Inva sive farming" Is In the air. It is the t nil lp crv of peace and plenty. But raising more is the result of snlnd, rot muscle. T must know. And not only that, we roust snow we know, and know why we know. We must knov - ;-d "erf from had, rU'ht cultivation - and the whr? rnd wher-'o.s of limatps, soils, fnil's, cattle, horses, poultry, and to forth. For these things the bureau was established.

Dr. Raycrcft Succeeds Hyatt aa Preei dent Changes In Rules. Several important changes have been made lu the Intercollegiate Bns ketball league preparatory to what promises to be the most successful year In the history of the league. Dr, Joseph E. Ruycruft of Princeton onl verslty succeeds B. B. Hyatt of Yale as president The withdrawal of Uy att Is only temporary and due to the rcorgai'U.ituiu of sports at Vale. The newly elected president has devoted much time to college basketball, having been its leading exponent In the west prior to his leaving Chicago university and euterliK Princeton. The leagno rules have been simpli fied for UV coming year, aud the gunie, In addition to being spectacular, will be better understood by the spec tators. The one hand dribble will pre vail this year, as last, with the idea of dev'dotHng more team work and less lmllvldc il play. Dartmouth, which was admitted to the league last year, has been given a placet on the executive committee, thereby entitling it to a full voice In the league. The furu shlng of officials by the league for all the games was so suc cessful Inst year that It has been made permanent, and officials for this season's games will be selected by the excutive committee.

Instead of beln d a waste to feed young stock lilierally it Is Just the op posite The young animal la growing. tux! every mouthful be can assimilate adds to his weight and increases the value of the feed Feed in the form of baby beef or pork Is worth a great deal mure than it Is lu the stack or crib and Is much more readily salable. If only a maintenance ration Is fed to the young animal and he Is "roughed through" the winter he has been stucd lng still Instead of growing In value, and the feed has been deteriorating with age. and there is a loss botb wnys. We get no returns from the fed that Is consumed. On the other bund, if tbe animal Is well fed he payc more for the feed than tbe dealer would give, he makes the most rapid gain that can lie made at any period of bis life, and be enriches the soil.
