JEFF AND sHARKEY TO FIGHT
Authorities on the Coast Will Not In
terfere With Battle There.

New York Nov. 26.-Jim Kennedy,
speaking on what is now assured to be
a match between Jeffries and Sharkey.
said: When I left San Francisco
everything was arranged for a cham
pionship fight between Jeffries and
Sharkey. So far as l know, and I am
sure would have heard of it, the police
authorities did not object to Sharxey
fighting in San Francisco. But Aleck
Greggains, manager of the San Fran
cisco club, does not like the sailor, and
simply declared negotiations off. He
telegraphed me at Chicago that he had
put in George Gardner of Lowell and
Kid Carter of Brooklyn for December
20, instead
IF Jeffries and Sharkey are willing
they can fight before the Twentieth
Century Athletic club in January or
February. / will present articles of
agreement to Sharkey and he will sign
in a few days. He agreed to every pro-
position last night. Jeffries is eager
to take on Fitzsimmons, and if he can't
get him will give Sharlxey a chance 1
see that last night Fitzsimmons once
more announced his retirement Posi-
bly, he may change his mind If he
does he can get a fight for good money
with Jeffries at short notice.
Sharlzey said that all details for the
fight had been discussed between Ken
nedy and himself. Kennedy does not
think it would pay to put the fight on
before the end of January anyway.

Creameries Have Paid the Farm
ers and Stockholders.
Fifteen Years of a Dickinson
County Plant Complete
PAYS s375,OOO A YEAR.
Dr0uth Has Had Little Effect
on the Milk Supply.
Big Factor in Wiping Out Mort
cages From Farms.

Abilene, Nov. 26-The Reflector says.
Fifteen years ago, November "a, 1886,
the first creamery station was started
in this county, one of the first in the
state. The Belle Springs company, then
a pioneer, starting among the River
Brethren settlers of south Dickinson,
is still the leading butter maker of this
section The first product was lat 900
pounds of butter. Last year this COM
pany made 1,306,240 pounds and the
farmers have received 1875. 900 for the
milk furnished to the various creamery
and cheese stations of this and other
companies. There are now SO such sta
tons in the county, managed by various
companies. The price paid for October
milk was 221a cents a pound for butter
tat, which is we'll above the price for
several years.
The advance in the Belle Springs bus
mess will be seen in the fact that it
made 407,796 pounds of butter the fifth
year; 1870 the tenth year: l, BOG, 210
October, 1901, $4,000. The test for Oc-
tober was 43, an exceptionally high
figure, showing constant improvement
in the quality of cows kept in the
county.
The Belle Springs Creamery com
pany's original stockholders were J. Il.
Nissley, N. G. Hershey, c. 8. Hoffman.
J. K. Forney, Eli Hoffman, the three
last named still being in the company.
Two-thirds of the stock is held by
farmers and the company has grown
into one of the states leading institu-
tions. Its daily capacity is now $4,000
pounds and it has done much to edu-
cate the farmers in the advantages of a
permanent income from dairy herds.
There are 1878 patrons who take milk
to the creamery daily. Their checks
average over SIS a month.
The creameries report little effect
from the drouth last summer. More
COWS are MIXED now than year ago
but with the scarcity of feed probably
less milk per cow is received. The
farmers have been well provided with
rye and wheat pasture and the supply
of alfalfa and other Matchmaking foods
is large. The stock cattle are being
sold off or shipped to other parts of
the west in order that the mich COWS
may be cared for. One of the prime
factors in the prosperity of the country
has been the creamery system. The
monthly payment of 100000 in cash has
given many farmers the money with
which to pay off their mortgages and
has had a decided influence on the bus
mess of the merchants. The present
year is the most prosperous in the his
tory of the industry and the farmers
are more than ever satisfied with the
benefits.
