coULoN SCORES A SHADE WIN.
Red Dolan Gives Maurice Flynn a
Boxing Lesson Stevenson Defeats
Friedman-Have Poor Crowd.

Johnny Coulon, the former bantam
weight champion, staged a comeback
at the Rhode Opera House on Tuesday
against Johnny Richie of South Chi
cago and earned a shade victory. Cou-
Ion showed some of his old time clever
ness after the fifth round but Richie
was the aggressor at all times. The
fight was even for the first five
rounds but Coulon took the sixth and
seventh, ninth and tenth. He scored
several times In these rounds with good
left jabs and right swings. Ritchie s
punches were for the most part mac
curate. There was lot of action all
through the ten rounds but little dam
age was done, neither of the boys hav-
ing mark when time was called at
the end of the tenth round.
The semi windup brought the best
bout of the evening when Red Dolan
of New Orleans and Maurice Flynn of
Chicago mixed it for ten rounds.
Dolan is about the classiest boy at his
weight that has ever stepped into a
Kenosha ring. He gave Flynn four
pounds in weight and a trimming
Dolan left the ring without a mark
while Flynn left with cut lip and
pulled face.
In the opening bout Young Steven
son of LaSalle found soft picking in
Solly Friedman of Chicago. "Steve"
handed Solly stiff lacing and nearly
had him out on his feet in the. sixth.
1t was only fair crowd that wit
messed the bouts. The special train
from Chicago did not carry the expect
ed throng of fans, but nevertheless the
visitors were in the majority, probably
numbering seven hundred. Local pat
ronage was disappointment.

Building Up

The profits of farming are in build
ing up One of the best Americans
We know bought eighty acres at forty
dollars an acre ten years ago. He
has made a good living on this land
and every year has increased its
value. Today he boasts that he would
, not take ten thousand dollars for it
He is giving his son and his daughter
good Quotations and he has a home
that is delight to visit He does not
envy his brother who gets ten thous-
and a year in the city and who lives in
an apartment.
Now this farmer has peculiar pride
in the little farm that has grown up
under his labor. 1t is real. 1t is
there. 1t will not run away. 1t is a
steady living and life insurance The
city brother may lose his ten thous-
and dollar job. but the farmer is safe
and he is his own boss.
Those engaged in constructive work
live longer and get more out of their
years. The inspirational stimulus of
building up is a constant tonic. and
one fine thing about it is that it gives
the lift over that breaking period be-
tween forty-five and sixty during
which so many city men go to pieces.
There never was a time when the
small farm we'll farmed offered so
many attractions and so much sure
profit as today.

Grain For Calves The First Summer

Calves growing toward baby beeves
should have grain the first summer if
they are to develop rapidly. says the
animal husbandry department at
Iowa State College. One of the
chances of loss in making baby beef
is slow growth during the first sum-
mer when gains are cheapest of any
time in the steers life. Unless grain
is. fed, some of the milkfat will surely
be .ost when pasture dries up and flies
are bad.
Shelled corn and oats, half and half
is a good mixture on which to start
calves. Linseed meal can be substi-
tc5cd for oats. which is usually very
high priced. Gradually increase the
amount of oil meal and reduce the oats
feed until calves are getting about
seven parts corn to one of oil meal.
The grain should be fed in creep, as
il will not pay to let the cows get at
such h-priced feed. Place the
creep in a shady spot where the stock
collect during the day. Feed the
calves all that they will clean up twice
a day and watch 'em grow to profit"

Salem = Men paroled from the Ore

cording to Joseph Keller, state parole
officer.
With the new system now followed

they are first provided with employ

the parole officer show that during the
last year paroled men earned total Of
$56, 614.86. At the present time there
are 1926 men on parole. Thirty. one
were recommended by the parole board
to Governor Withycombe for executive
clemency this month. Of this number
26 were recommended for parole. Off,
Ger Keller said that he had found work
for nearly all of these prisoners.
Since the passage of the parole law
in 1911, the records show that I'll
prisoners have been paroled. The per-
centage of parole violations during
this time has been 20, and 25 per cent
during the present administration.
Of the I'll paroled men in the last
six years, 173 have been discharged
after having demonstrated that they
had made good outside the prison. In
the same period rs parole violators
have been returned to the penitentiary,
and 1876 violators were not returned.

London-The plan of rationing the
neutral countries of Norway, Sweden,
Denmark and Holland, under which no
further licenses will be granted for the
present to British exporters, has been
extended to apply to the United States
by the expedient Of refusing to allow
The Netherlands Overseas Trust to ac-
cept further American consignments
and by declining to grant letters Of as
surance for American shipments des-
tined for these countries.
In consequence American shipments
for Holland will be stopped absolutely,
while the regular transportation COM
panies trading between the United
States and Scandinavia will not take
cargoes without assurance of tkeir in
nocent destination by the British au-

Furthermore, tramp steamers are
hardly likely to risk the inevitable
landing in the prize court of any cargo
they might accept.
Neutral diplomats here believe two
reasons induced the British govern
ment to take this action. The first is
