Special Correspondence Of The Star
MILWAUKEE, Wis. May 25.-Some of
the weuld-be reformers in California who
are talking about trying to kill the box
ing game in that state might do well to
ponder over the following article. writ
ten by very prominent English maga-
zine writer and also a man high in gov
ernment circles and with connectios IN
the houses of parliament:
Boxing has gripped the British public
as it.has never done before. The frequent
defeats of British boxers by Americans
and Frenchmen has arounsed the fighting
spirit of the nation, and everybody is
longing for a real champion to appear
one who We can really depend upon to
uphold the national honor. The interest
taken in the game is really remarkable.
even clergymen in some parts are taking
pains to impart love of the sport in the
local boys Fortunately for the old Eng
lish pastime. it has the support of the
greatest in the land-judges. rulers OF
the army and navy and the premier col
leges and universities uniting in singing
its praises. movement Is on foot to in
duce the universities to grant full blue
for boxing. an honor so far only ac-
corded to rowing. cricket. foot ball and
hockey. The blue at Oxford and Cam
bridge universities Is equivalent to the
H and letters granted at Harvard and
Yale, but Is far more appreciated in Eng
land. A blue at one Of the two premier
English universities is treasured by an
athlete to his dying day, and many of
our great political leaders. judges and
governors refer to the DAYS when they
won their blues" at Oxford or Cam
bridge. If the honor Is granted it will
boost the game still more and will OBJ
tain even greater favor among the official
circles. The petition is signed by the late
lord chief justice of the law courts. Lord
Roberts and many leading officials.
will Charlie White. the Chicago light
weight, be able to give Champion
Willie Ritchie as hard a battle when
they clash in the palatial arena of the
Milwaukee auditorium the evening Of
May rs. as did Ad Wolgast March -?
This question is on nearly every box
ing fans lips and all kinds of compari-
sons are being made to discover wheth-
er the Chicago boy figures to have a
chance of lowering the colors of the
California boy. 1t will be the first
time since Ritchie won the title that
he has met boy who is acknowledged
by nearly every fan to be as clever. if
not more so. than himself and one who
fights very much after his own style.
There is none of the boring in, wrest-
ling or hugging tactics about White.
and the same can be said of Ritchie.

Says Grantland Rice: I'VE have no de-
sire to insert a crimp into the wonder
full start made by Ray Caldwell of the
bristling New Yorks by handing him any
extended boost, but we offer the sugges-
ton that no other pitcher ever started a
season before with three straight shut
outs and a total yield of but nine hits to
all three games. These shut-outs were
administered in turn to the Athletics.

Twenty-Five thousand rainbow

inch in length were placed in the
trout streams Of Lewis county Satur-

trout were brought from the state
fish hatchery in Seattl: and upon ar

Probably every reader Of this paper
has noticed in reading the Veterinary
columns in Farm Journals this advice:
"Clean up and disinfect." 1t is a
phrase that is used perhaps more than
any other in recommending measures
to prevent and exterminate contagious
diseases. This being the case, it is
worth while knowing something about
what to use to accomplish this clean
ing up and disinfecting. OF course
there are a great many different dis
infectants on the market. Everyone
is familiar with carbolic acid, corro-
sive sublimate, formaldehyde, etc.
However, there is very serious OBJ
lection to these materials, for they are
rank, irritant poisons Many people
refuse to have them around because
there is always more Or less danger CT
a disastrous accident. A mistake in
picking up the wrong bottle, Or an i'm
proper use Of one of these is apt to be-
q very serious matter.
1t Is really fortunate that there is a
disinfectant that will do everything
that those mentioned will and yet is
practically free from these serious OBJ
jections. Kreso Dip No. 1 is admitted
by psychologists to be a powerful
disinfectant, cleanser and purifier, yet
practically non-poisonous to higher
animal life. Every stock owner ought
to be posted upon this subject. Book
lets and circulars can be obtained at
the drug store at Friday Harbor.

County Game Preserves Lega!

Judge Houser, of Skagit county,
has rendered a decision upholding the
constitutionality of that portion of
the 1913 game code giving county
game commissions the right to create
county game preserves.
Soon after the passage of the law,
the Skagit county game commission
demanded that hunting club of the
Seattle business men cease feeding
on their reserves, because by doing
so they were enabled to attract ducks
in tremendous quau titles. This they
refused to do, and as a retaliatory
measure the game commission de-
clared the entire shooting reserve a
game preserve, which eliminated
shooting or killing of any nature.
The decision is particularly pleas
ing to the game commission of the
state because many attorneys have
insisted, since the enactment of the
law, that this portion of the game
law was unconstitutional and for
this reason many commissions hesita-
ted to exercise their rights to estab-
lish preserves. Is
The sportsmen of Everett and Bell
ingham both have shooting reserves
in Skagit county, while one other Sc
attic club also has one there, and it
is known to be the intention of the
Skagit county game commission to
throw all Of these shooting reserves
into game preserves.

is that of this average mans income

therefore, "for the privilege Of being
