TIME FOR FISH PONDS.

The United States government,
through it's fisheries in Meriwether
county, is doing all that it can to aid
the people of Georgia in the matter of
stocking their ponds with fish suita-
BILE for table purpores. If the farmers
will furnish their own ponds the gov
eminent stands ready to supply the
fish with which to stock them. There
are thousands of farmers in Georgia
who could for a very little expense
throw a dam across a creek and make
a pond out of the water collected in
this way that will furnish fish for the
table the year round at no cost what
ever. and no charge for the sport of
catching the fish when they are want
ed for eating purposes. NOV is the
time of'the year" says Superintendent
Stranahan, who has charge of the fish
cry at Bullochville. Ga, ito construct
and stock the ponds. A pond of one
fourth acre, properly managed will
supply an ordinary family with the
fresh fish needed for it's table the year
round"

VIOLATING THE GAME LAWS.

Gainesville News: The state game
laws of Florida are violated with inn
punity almost daily during the hunting
season, and some action should be
taken TO guard against the indiscrim-
mate slaughter of all species of game
by nonresident, and resident hunters
as we'll. In some instances men have
boosted of killing in one day twice as
many birds as the law permits, and
nothing has been said about 1t. The
true sportsman, who enjoys hunting
and never take sadvantage Of game,
but will give birds a chance for their
lives, is opposed to such methods as
are adopted and IL we want to enjoy
shooting wild game the seasons should
be made shorter, the number of birds
and other game allowed each hunter
limited to a smaller number, and all
should be protected out of season. In
many states a nonresident license for
deer shooting costs $25, the hunter is
limited to three deer, the season only
twenty days in length, and a deer can
not be shipped out of the state. A
hunter from another state is charged
$40 for a license in Florida, and the law
is seldom enforced If the matter was
properly looked into we might protect
our game and have abundant game for
years to come.

worse Defeat.
1aclrsonyille, Fla, Jan. 1.-Savan-
uob won her hardest fought game of
40 season this afternoon from Jack
.or,ille by a single touchdown.
The failure to kick a goal made the
score to y.
The touchdown was made in the
oorlv part of the game three minutes
.fter the ball was put in play. The
c,vannahians worked a trick play
most successfully and caught the locals
naming, Right Halfback Sullivan
made the touchdown, circling Jackson
villes end for gain of Is yards, and
his run was a feature of the game.
After that Jacksonville braced up and
in the rest Oh the IFSl AdlLB lnln6S
we're fairly evened up.
In the second half neither side could
score. though Savannah undoubtedly
showed her superiority, and towards
the last of the game had the ball once
as close as yards from her opponents
goal. and within the 15-yard line on
several occasions. Capt. Mcintyre
managed his team we'll and out-gen-
eraled the locals whose defensive work
was fully equal to that of the visitors.
The Savannah boys expected much
easier victory, and were taken by sur
prise. They said it was a much harder
game than that played with Macon.
In Jacksonville the result was sur
Prise, as many expected Savannah to
pile up large score.
The attendance at the game reached
thousand and Savannah had a num-
Der of sympathisers who wore the blue
and white. Among the traps on the
side line, was one containing young
ladies' decorated with these colors.
Savannah's lineup was as published
with the exception of Johnson, whose
place was taken by Sullivan. j. w.
Mcintyre acted as umpire.
The boys arrived at 1920, took lunch
al the Duval and drove out to the
grounds. They returned tonight. The
Jacksonville team was made up of the
best players from the Rifles and j.
L. l. teams. Many local players were
hurt in the game.

JOE TIPMAN WALL DIPPED.
Exploited WOrld-Beater Laid on tn e
Shelf by Alex. Dunsheath.

Joe Tipman of Baltimore, who for
some time has been put forward by
his friends as world beaten was
walloped night before last in two
rounds by Alex Dunsheath or may be,
as his friends claim, by Tom Daily.
There may be some question as to
the identity of the victor, but there is
none as to the fact that Tipman got
what was coming to him. An account
of the fight says:
The New Yorker knocked Tipmhn
down early in the first round and re-
peated the act several times. Once
Tipman was down for count of nine,
and then the referee, Fred Sweigert,
lost his power of speech or he may
have counted more than ten. Tipman
was conscious and listening to the
count, and would have gotten on his
feet had the referee counted ten. He
may as well have stayed down, how
ever, as he showed no ability to win
from Dunsheath.
The New Yorker was fighting easily
and as clearly in breaks as Joe Cans
or any other local faVorfte could. He
was as cool as the late Jack Demp-
sey and as shifty as Robert Fitzsim-
mons ever was.
IN the second rOulQ edcl Indn nldQe
some wild passes, but the visitor was
first to get himself together, and it
was all over. Tipnan had not hit
Dunsheath a blow which had hurt.
Dunsheath had not landed a blow
which did not hurt. His face blows
sent Tipman's head back, his body
blows sent his man away from him.
One face blow put Tipman on the floor
and he was so dazed that he could
think of nothing else but brushing his
hair with hands which were encased
in five boxing gloves.
DunSheath was oVerconfident and
made a swing in the latter part of
the second round. 1t missed, and
Dunsheath slipped and fell to the floor.
Before he could arise Tipman hit him,
and the referee disqualified Tipman.
Dunsheath asked to let the fight go
on, being willing to waive the decis-
ion ON a foul, but the decision had
been made.
Tipman is a fighter, but he was
simply outclassed. and it was well
that the decision was given. He
would have been game and stood for
more beating than he got had not the
referee, who showed good judgment,
stopped the fight as he did.

WIRE sUPERCEDEs COTTON TIES.

Americas Times Recorder: Wire has
superseded the old fiat steel tie in
wrapping cotton bales, and henceforth
all cotton shipped from the Americas
press will be tied with thirteen strands
of wire instead of as many fiat ties, as
done heretofore. The new device was
put up and successfully operated yes
terday. The two machines are the
Gadget patent, and already are in sue
cessful use at many of the plants of
the Atlantic Compress Company, their
Introduction here having been delayed
a bit. Thirteen to fifteen wires are
tightly tied about bale in the press,
and do not give way as do the old
hoops. A density of 35 to 40 pounds
per cubic foot can be attained, and
cotton thus packed is delivered at the
ships side without expanding. There
is nothing intricate about the ma
chimes, and their work is rapid, pre-
else and secure.

ice floating about in the lagoons, and
it is probable that but a day or two
previously there was a thick coating
of ice all over these ponds of water.
The lagoons are not more than a few
inches deep in many places. and it is
probable that the water froze solidly,
thus killing all of the fish. Some of
the fish found dead by Mr.. Scarborough
