WANTS SODA FOUNTAINS
KEPT CLEAN And SAFE

Gilman NJ. Dane, state dairy and
food commissioner proposes to have
introduced in the legislature a bill
sweeping in character and which it is
intended will give him absolute control
over soda fountains from a standpoint
of sanitation.
Mr.. Dane does not like the practice
of merely rnsing glasses at soda foun-
tains i'm a tank of water which soon
becomes foul with the constant empty
ing of soda Stops into it. He appre-
ciates fully that by this means disease
may easily be communicated from the
mouth of one person to that of another
and proposes to have power to put an
utter stop to this method of washing
glasses.
II am also going TO make attendants
at fountains wear clean clothes he
adds. "They must be clean If they
have to change their coats 40 times a
day. They are serving the public and
the public is entitled to cleanliness"
Mr.. Dane is now making a thorough
inspections of all candy shops, baker
les, fountains and similar Institutions
and will make everybody clean up or
close up. His attention is right now
turned TO the larger cities but he pro-
poses going through the state with his
inspection.

SPORTING NEWS OF THE WORLD
SAYS AMERICAN FIGHTERS
LOST MONEY IN AUSTRALIA

That the invading American fighters
did not make the barrel of money in
the trip TO Australia, which had been
anticipated. is claimed by Rudy I'm
holz, the Boer, who recently returned
from the Antipodes. Rudy says the
quartette of scrappers will be lucky
If the players have any money left by
the time they return.
In addition to fighting for small pur-
ses, several Of the fighters lost good
ly sums i'm bets on the horse races in
the distant country and a considerable
amount ha been spent in sightseeing.
Unholz was present at a number Of
the bouts i'm Australia and he knows
what amounts were taken in. Accord
ing to Unholz the following houses
were drawn by the American fighters
i'm Australia:
Jimmy Clabby VS.. Bob Bryant, $1,000.
Jimmy Clabby VS.. Mark Higgins.
$500.
Billy Papke VS.. Ed Williams, $SO25,
Johnny Thompson VS. Rude Unholz,
$4,000.
Ray Bronson VS.. Sid Sullivan, $4,000.
Bob Fitzsimmons VS.. Bill Lang,
$500
Tommy Burns VS. Bill Lang, $4,000.
From the above it can readily be
seen that the Antipodes are not the
rich field for American fighters that
many have been led To believe. Jack
Johnson and Tommy Burns were re-
ported to have drawn over 100000, but
according to information received the
house did not aggregate $4,000.
Unholz, says his end of the purses
in his fifteen bouts in Australia
amounted to $4,000. and he says he
saved a major portion of this amount.

FARMER BOYS STAND THE
STRAIN OF BASEBALL BEST

Old Cy Young's wonderful career
has been attributed to his having lived
on a farm all his life, and it has often
been said that farmer boys and small
town boys make better ball players
than boys from a city. This would
be hard TO prove, but there is much
evidence i'm favor of the farmer boys.
In proportion To the number of farm
er and city boys who are stars in the
big leagues. the farmer lads have it,
There are 10 city bred players to one
from farm or small town. but the
number of star players is far less than
10 To 1 i'm favor of the city
The worlds championship Athletics
have almost as many small towns and
farmer lads as city players. Eddie
Collins. Jack Coombs. Frank Baker,
Chief Bender, Cy Morgan and Topsy
Hartsel We're born and reared where
the bright lights were unknown. There
are many other big stars from the
country, including Christy Mathewson,
Frank Chance, Jeff overall, Mordecai
Brown, Jimmy Schekard and Frank
Schultz.
The greatest and probably the most
reasonable argument for the farmer
players is that they have greater stam-
ina than the city boys, Old Cy doesn't
prove that. He is an abnormal athlete,
but If a fair test could be made, it
would probably show that farmer lads
last longest.

MULLIN FAVORS
DETROIT TEAM
VETERAN TIGER PITCHER LOOKS
FOR ANOTHER CHAMPION
SHIPIN AMERICAN LEAGUE
THIS YEAR.

Detroit Feb. 20.-George Mullin, the
Detroit clubs veteran pitcher in point
of service is strongly inclined to the
view that, i'm case the spring season
develops a new infielder for first or
third base, the Tigers will be strictly
in the running in the 1911 pennant
fight. He said:
II can't see where anyone has any
license to place the Athletics or any
other team ahead of u.s. If we get an
equal break in the luck. Wen be
better next year, and | don't think the
Athletics will be so good"
So saying, Mulin grabbed a rubber
shirt and a box of balls and hied him
self to the train which was to carry
him and Bill Donovan to Hot Springs.
Incidentally Mr.. Mullin has a rec
ord as prophet, having foretold over
his own signature, last fall, the fact
that the Clubs would be lucky to get
more than one game from the Athlet
les in the worlds series.
Mulln is down to 1875 pounds in
weight and won't have to take off
much this spring. Crawford failed 70

ing the dates of his departure until

A Living From Poultry.

A reader asks US if one can make a
living for two from poultry. This is a
rather indefinite question. In the first
place, if a man has no capital with
which to buy poultry for start, build
houses and buy the necessaries of life
while his flock is growing, he cannot
succeed any more than he can start a
business on nothing, and expect it to
succ ed. But, on the other
hand, if one has sufficient capital to
pay for his poultry, his houses and ap-
pliances, and to run him, say for 9
year, then he can, and no doubt will
succeed.
As an evidence that money can be
made out of poultry, look over the
country and you will see any number Of
men devoting their entire time and alst
that of dozens of hired men, to poul
try, and undoubtedly not only making
lising, but more, perhaps, than tn
same amount of money would maxi
them in any other business. Th
trouble is that most people expect to-
much of the poultry business. The.
seem to think that hundred or so in
vested in poultry should make enoug
to live on. If you made SO per cent, o
eve, 100, you could not live on it; bu
if one has position and can spare
little time, he may start in small wa
and in few years build the busines
up to a point where it will make him
comfortable living. The beauty q
poultry is that while you are at wor
earning more the flock will grow. :
