CANADA WINS AGAIN
THE COLORADO SILVER TROPHY
FOR OATS WON A SECOND
TIME BY CANADA.

The most recent achievement of
Canada's West is winning for the sec
Ond time the magnificent $500 silver
trophy awarded by the State of Colo
RADIO for the best peck of oats. At
Columbus, Ohio, In 1911, ]. G. Hill 6
Sons of Lloydminster, Saskatchewan,
placed peck of oats grown on their
farm in competition, with oats from
every part of the world. The judges
had no difficulty in deciding, and the
award was given to the Saskatchewan
grown oats. In 1912, the Corn Expo
sition had no exhibition, and our Ca
madam friends, although ready for a
second contest had no opportunity.
In 1913, the exhibition of the Society
was held at Columbus, s. c., and it is
said Of 1t that it was one Of the best
yet held. At this exhibition, which
comprised corn and all the smaller
grains, Hill & Sons of Lloydminster
had on exhibition for the contest an
other peck Of oats grown on their
Saskatchewan farm, in 1912. There
was no trouble for the judges, no time
necessarily lost in reaching decision,
Hill & Sons won, and for the second
time their name will appear on the
crest Of the cup. The third space will
doubtless be occupied by their name,
and then this splendid trophy will be
theirs.
During the past few years Western
Canada grains-wheat, oats, barley and
flax-have been in competition with
grains from all other countries, and in
every case their superiority has been
shown. It is not only in oats, but 1t
is In wheat, in barley and In fax, that
Canada more than holds its own, when
placed side by side with grains from
other parts,
Mixed farming is taking a strong
hold not only in those parts of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
which up to the present have been de-
voted solely to grain growing, but also
in the districts contiguous, where the
conditions Of climate, shelter, water,
grass and hay make farming of this
kind, easy to prosecute and large in
profits. 1t was in the Province of
Manitoba that the steer was raised
that carried off the Championship of
the steer class, at Chicago last De-
cember. This beast had been fattened
on the grass and hay of the Province
and the only finishing grain 1t had was
barley; not an ounce of corn.
Western Canada presents innumer
able opportunities for the big farmer
who wants to cultivate his thousands
Of acres, the medium man satisfied
with few hundred acres, the man
who is content to farm his free home
stead Of one hundred and sixty acres;
it has opportunities for the investor,
the capitalist, the business man, the
manufacturer and the laborer.

Atlanta, Leader Of Dixie in
Other Forms Of Sport, VIII
Forge to Front Now in Boxing

The reason has been that Atlanta
had no big hall that could be de-
voted to boxing
Then came the brilliant idea Of
using the Auditorium Armorv for
boxing bouts to be given for the
benefit of the militia companies Of
the city. The idea originated with
some of the officers of the Atlanta
Grays They enlisted the support
of members of the Capital CITY
Guards. They secured a manager.
And then they went out for real
top-notChers-the men Atlanta
could not afford before because Of
the limited space at the disposal Of
the professional promoters.
With the militia in chronic need
of money and with Atlanta fans
DESTROYS of seeing the best boxers
of the world, the possibilities are
interesting.
But in the meantime the bouts in
prospect now have for their special
purpose the raising of money to
send the Atlanta Grays and the
Capital City Guards to the Wilson
inaugural-and they will certainly
do it.
Day after tomorrow at the latest
will see both Knockout Brown and
Jake Abel in Atlanta and ready for
their great ten-round engagement
at the Auditorium.
Word comes from Chattanooga
that Abel is in the best condition of
his career. The boy is a wonder in
his habits and he does not need the
long training that the chronic lush
er does. He lives carefully and
couple of weeks of training will put
him in shape any old time. The
Chattanooga recognizes in the
scrap with Knockout Brown the
second big opportunity of his ca
reer He rose to the first one by
giving Joe Mandot an awful argu-
ment for eight tough rounds. He
believes he will make an even bet
Ter showing against Brown.

4 TLANTA is the best baseball
~ town in Dixie. Given team
that is "up there" and it will
outdraw even huge New Orleans or
wide-awake Birmingham.
1t is the best golf town of the
Southland possibly for it's white
population the best in the United
States. 1t has two golf courses
now and two more coming.
Atlanta has led the South for
years in tennis-it takes ten courts
at the Athletic club, half dozen or
more at the Driving club and a lot
more scattered over the city to ac-
commodate it's players
1t is the leading Southern city in
the number of active basket bail
leagues.
In no city in the South is there
such active interest in swimming.
All in all, Atlanta is an athletic
city.
Yet, up to the present Atlanta
has been behind in boxing. Unlike
some other cities boxing contests
are not forbidden. There is not
even a limit to the number of
rounds that may be engaged in.
There is feeling here that it is a
manly sport; that it encourages
boys to learn the art of self-de-
Tense, and is an influence away
from pistol ''toting" and knife play.
The sport is patronized by some
of the highest class of Atlanta's
business men.
1t has the support of the best
element.
Yet, up to the present time, box
ing in Atlanta has been miles be-
hind New Orleans and Memphis.

CHANCE IS REAL
MANAGER, SAYS
ZIMMERMAN
By Harry CHASER.

NTEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Having
y had the opinions of mag
mates and managers on the
acquisition of Frank Chance, it may
not be amiss to hear what one of
the Cub players thinks of the deal,
especially when that player is a
GOthamite and premier batsman of
the league as well. Heine Zim-
norman, who, if it were left solely
to his choice, would pastime with
the Giants instead of the Cubs, be-
cause he is a native. of the Bronx,
is still in our midst, where he So
journs during the winter, and thinks
Chance will be the same rip-sn
ing hero in a Yankee uniform that
he was when he sported Chicago
toys.
Says the champion slugger, whose
allegiance is with the Cubs, while
at heart a New Yorker: Chance
is man who would be a success
anywhere. That's why | think he
will have no trouble in reorganiz-
ing the Yankees and putting them
back in the race.
His Word Is Law"
Chance may be considered a
hard taskmaster by some, but he
never makes any unreasonable de-
mands from his players. He knows
the game thoroughly, and it does
not require him long to convince
those in his charge of this fact. He
IS boss on the field, and his word
is law. AS long as a player fol-
lows his directions he will find the
Peerless Leader an excellent chief,
one who commands respect without
demanding it.
Il do not think that Chance will
find it difficult to pull the Yankees
up with the leaders. They seem to
possess enough first class stars
around which to build good team,
and Chance looks to be the right
man to handle the job.
Cubs Respected Chance.
He always had the good will and
respect of the Cubs. and l think.
without exception, every man on
the team was sorry to see him go.
If he is as well as the reports give
him credit for being. | believe he
could get back in the game and
make some of the youngsters perk
up in playing first base.
"Of this, however, l am not in a
position to speak. for l have not
seen him since last fall, before he
underwent the operation that is
said to have improved his health
wonderfully. After all, it will re-
main for him to get into the thick
Of battle to prove that he is still
there as a player, l guess, for that
is the only sure test for any ath-
lete.
zim Says Cubs Are On.
AS q native New Yorker | am
glad to see him come here. while
naturally | regret to see him leave
Chicago. That is the town l am
roofing for six months in the year.
Do ! think the Cubs will be up IN
the race next season? Wen. you
can take the fish line off the old
roll, so far as that goes. and bet
your heads off I certainly do think
so.
Johnny Evers should make as
good leader as he was a player.
and there are still a few stars left
on the team, if Chance and Tinker
are gone"
