"Phe association is returning to a fourâ€"team league, instead of six teams, so as to strengthen the league and make the teams more even. This will make all teams hustle at least enough to keep somewhere near the leader, and the fans will be given real ball. "The association is lucky in having a real follower of sport and a hard workâ€" er on its way to success with Jack Faithful as its first viceâ€"president. "So far there are three teams enterâ€" ed, with entries open until 8 p.m. toâ€" morrow night. "Harry Boyd is going to give the softball fans a treat with a real good team this year.

Jack Stevens, who held down first base on some of the best teams for a few years, will also play forâ€" Harry.

COD LIVER OIL IMPORTANT IN CANADA‘S FISH TNDUSTRY Upwards of 100,000 gallons of mediâ€" cinal cod liver oil are yielded every year as a byâ€"product of Canada‘s exâ€" panding sea fishery. _ The oil owes its specific medical value to richness in vitamine content and, in a lesser degree, to its iodine value. In 1925 the production of medicinal cod liver oil from the Canadian Fishâ€" ery was only 26,836 gallons, but since then there has been a great increase. In 1926 the production was 94,383 galâ€" lons, and in 1927 slightly less than that â€"92,597 gallons. Figures for 1928 have not yet been completed and finally reâ€" vised by the Fisheries Branch, but it is not expected that they will show any very material difference from those any very maveriai Gi11CrCIICC 1IQIl for 1927.
