LESS FALL WHEAT In parts of the United Counties of Northumberland and Durham, espec- jally adapted to the growing of fall wheat, most of the farmers are sow- ing from ten to fifteen acres less of fall wheat each year than is usually sown. One farmer gives as a reason 35 for this the sodden condition of the ground, which makes it very difficult to prepare it for a crop. Another at- tributes it to the hardness of the soil. Other reasons given are the uncer- tainty of the crop, and the difficulty in sowing enough later for the works .| on the farms at the present time.

During the two-hour sitting, Prime Minister Baldwin, browned by his outing at Continental re- sorts, listened to Lord Cushendun's report of League of Nations activi- ties at Geneva. The acting 1ur- eign secretary sketched the pro- gress made in the question of Rhineland evacuation and the prob- lem of reparations arising out of the conversations betweén Great Britain, France and Germany. It is understood that the much- debated subject of the Anglo- French agreement was also discuss. ed, but the cabinet left it behind a ministerial veil of silence. All of the more important mem- bers of the cabinet were present, except Sir Austen Chamberlain, who is voyaging for his health, and Lord Birkenhead, secretary of state for India, who was absent he- | cause of the illness of his aged mother, HARVESTERS USE SKATING MINK FOR CONCERT able to work in the harvest fields owing to rain, a resourceful group of harvesters obtained permission from civic authorites to use the skating rink here recently and gave a concert which was attended by 800 persons, A collection was taken up to tide them over the wet period, Nshawa Luggage YOUR MiTIAL 'RER m Suit Case or Mub Rag Saywell & Son BOND ST.

Regina and Moose Jaw are the Saskatchewan representa- tives with two Winnipeg teams, Tigers and St. John's carrying Ménitoba colors, Junior and In. termediate teams will be fostered by the senior clubs, The code of the east has made rapid progress, too, at the Pacific coast since its adoption there and it is believed it will eventually reach the Atlantic where English Rugby is still played in preference to Canadian football, Not in many years have so many promising youngsters reported for training with teams in the Inter. provincial, Intercollegiate and On- the east. With wealth of new ma- terial to speed up aggregations which find their greatest strength in their veterans, a season of fast, hard, hitting struggles is antiei- pated. The three unions open their schedules on the same ate, Oec- tober 6. In the college eireuit, University of Tgronto meet Queens University at ingston. Toronto and Ottawa are the home teams in the Interprovineial on opening day, Hamilton playing Argos and Mont- real \A.A.A, meeting the Senators, University of Toronto "Orphons will inaugurate Ontario Union foot- ball at Kitchener, which, with Sar- nia, joined the league this year, Camp Borden play Hamilton Tigers in the other O.R.F.U, fixture on October 6. Although this year's will witness the appearance of many new faces in senior ranks, few of the stars of last year's teams will be missing, The most notable exception is Harry "Red Batstone, peer of backfield men, who is de- harred from playing for Queen's ITniversity hy the four year rule in the Intercollegiate union, "Pep" Leadley, who partnered with Batstone on Queen's backfield and .won 3 Dominion Champion- ships consecutively for the Tricolor has announced that he will nat don his moleskins again, but Ham- flton Tigers for whom he played part of last season's schedule, ex- pect him to yield to the lure of the game and lead them to another Interprovincial championship. As in other years, there Is no outstanding favorite at this time to ship. Balmy Beach, which swept throuch the Ontario Union sched- ule last year and sprang a sensa- tional upset in the Dominion final by defeating Hamilton Tigers, have lost their three brightest stars, "Red" Moore, "Scotty" Caw- kell and "Yip" Foster and cannot We favored more than several other teams. Moore will play with Mont- real in the Interprovincial Union and Cawkell and Foster turned pro- fessional to play hockey in the Canadian-Amerioan league last year, . It Pep" Leadley returns to the game and the Bengals keep the re- mainder of their championship team intact, Hamilton, with the crafty Mike Rodden piloting them again, may scatter all opposition and gain the Dominion title which slipped out of their grasp when the cyclonic *"Red'" Moore led the | Beachers against them, But even without "Peerless Pep" | the Tigertown griders are formid- | able, Besides the flock of young- sters who turn out every year at the Tiger camp, they have Cap" Fear of last year's team, Brian Timmis, mammoth wingman, Er- nie Cox, veteran snapback, Timmy Languay, Bert Gibb, and Jack Bak- er, Ray Beadway, formerly with Argonauts, who is trying for the quarterback position, and "Huck" Welsh, are two newcomers who will materially strengthen the in- terprovincial champions, Montreal is evidently sincere in its assertion that the M.A.A.A, team has finished being a doormat for the other teams in the O.R. F.U., and is out to win the title, This year they have the sensations) "Red" Moore, whose performa against Tigers in the Hamilton- Balmy Beach Dominion final last year was nothing short of marvel- lous. His playing then equalled the exhibition Joe Miller, of Ot- 'awa gave in the final against Var- 'ity the preceding year and Joe's hrilling play will go down in fout- hall history. "Beano" Wright, former Queen's rearguard r, will probably part- ner Moore on the backfield and the combination should earry the Winged Wheelers far in the cham- pionship race. Dr. Cliff Howard, another former Tricolor star, is a campaign wing position on the Montreal | team. These new players, together with, Sheppard, Dr. Curly Taylor, "Pean" and Johnny Bennett, Clarry Booth and Harrison, give the team which has long occupied the cel- lar positon in the Interprovincial standing a real chance to reach the top this year. After ing out last year to Hamilton, Ottawa Senators expect to recover this year the glory they once had as double winners of the Dominion crown. Although they have lost Harry Kehoe and Bert Melnenly, utility backfield men tario unions, the senior leagues in, likely candidate for the middle | been and Smith, a smart middle wing, the Capital crew will be strength ened by the return of several stars Harold Starr, considered by many the smartest flylng wing in Can ada, will be back this year as strong as ever. Injuries kept him off the team last season. It is re- ported Vincent "Irish Monohan, who formerly played for Ottawa but has been with Queen's for the past two seasoms, will return to the Senators fold as "Chubby Dunne has dome. Starr, Monohan and Dunne on an Ottawa wing line would make it hard to beat. No one has come up to displace Joe Tubman, veteran kicking half, and he will be back at the old stand. Two other veterans, Char- lle Connell and Eddie Emerson, will perform on the secondary de- fence as they have done for years, Don Young, elongated flying wing, has peen late in reporting for prac- tice but it is expected he will even tually turn out. Charlie Lynch will: again call the signals for the Senators. Dave McCann, who pil- oted Ottawa to their two Domin- fon championships, has retired and Walter Gilhooley will coacl™ the Bytown boys this Fall, Argonauts expected Dave Hard- ing, Camp Borden coach and kick- ing half, to join their squad but the aviator will again be with the airmen and the Toronto team must content themselves with the many candidates they have in training. Coach Frank Knight has "Peewee" Chantler, diminutive half, hard at work, with Hank Snclair, Bert Bradley, Pug Irwin, Joe Wright and Tommy Barrett, as well as many others, and expects to turn out an aggregation that will dodge the ill-luck that has hounded the Double_Blue this long while, McGill are as good as ever but Queen's "look the class" of the In- tercollegiate Union again. Toron- to Varsity has lost most of its stars of last year and must form a team from youngsters. It will be a hard row to hoe but Coach Les Blackwell is confident. Ken Tremain has turned out for practice with McGill, and Little and Ralph St. Germain will probably be back to take the backfield posi- tions. Some of the Red and White's wingmen have graduated but there are plenty of juniors ready to take thelr places. "Red" Gilfmour, who with Oakwood Collegiate of Tor- onto, is the find of the year at Queen's, His showing has favor- ably impressed Coach Carson that he almost assured of a regular po- sition. "Irish Monohan is ex- day despite the fact that Ottawa claims he will play there. Fred Warren, Jimmy Kilgour and Ar- mour Munro all have reached the intensive training stage at King- ston, Even without Moore, Cawkell and Foster, Balmy Beach remain at the top of the heap in the On- tario Union, Coach Harry Hobbs has Frank Commins, veteran snap, Ernie Crowhurst, giant line plung- er, Alex Ponton, Ross Robertson, Frank Northam, Charney, Ted Reeve, who was switched from middle to flying wing, Earl Smith, and Trimble all working hard to retain the Union championship which the Beaches have won so of- ten in the past, The make-up of the Varsity and conjecture as all candidates are Sarnia and Kitchener, whose entry has enlarged the league players to will enter, Camp Borden, again under Dave Harding's leadership will probably provide Balmy Beach with many anxious moments In the league race. Though mraterial will not he any more plentiful at the Camp than in other years, Harding be- lieves the addition of a number of newcomers will make the Flyers a much stronger machine. It is not expected Carr-Harris will play 'as he has heen in the north for some time, However, Jerry Ault, Gihh Johnson Cameron and Harding himself will all be out again, form the teams they BOOKER PLEADS NOT GUILTY OF MURDER Edmonton, Alta., Sept, 24.-- Vernon Booher, who had previous: ly confessed to killing his mother, brother and two hired men on the Booher farm, near Mannville, ere- ated somewhat of a sensation in the supreme criminal court today when, upon being arraigned, he pleaded "not guilty." It was in the Booher case that Dr. Langsner, Vienese criminolo- gist, assisted the Alberta Provin- cial police and, after finfling the weapon which Booher is alleged to have used, paved the way for the confession. The youth fis defended by Neil D, McLean, K.C., who has the as- sistance of J. D, Nicholson, until recently inspector of the Alberta Provincial police. The majority of the opening session, was given over to medical evidence from the Mannvyille, Alta., doctors who were called to the farm following the finding of the bodies.
