PROPER SHELTER FOR SHEEP
impossible to Keep Animals Fleece
Dry II Not Given Some Protection
During the Winter

II was formerly quite generally
thought that the sleeps wool afforded
1t all the protection necessary during
the winter. If the fleece could be kept
dry Il probably would retain enough
body heat to keep the sheep warm
but this is impossible without shelter.
When q fleece once becomes wet II
takes a long time for it to dry out,
especially If the weather is cold.
Much energy that would otherwise
Bs a9ed for growth or fatteninG must

The wet fleece also gives rise to un-
healthy conditions.
In Great Britain little housing is
necessary. but in most places in Amer;

ST. LOUIS OWNER

AS FED MAGNATE

i New York, Feb. 18.-Some day or
other the American league schedule
meeting is going to keep Ban johnson
and his club owners in session for
longer than the course Of one after
noon Yesterday, however, they ran
true to schedule, and by being a little
late for dinner, managed to finish all
business and lay it away neatly bound
up in red tape.
johnson announced that the chief
owners of the Cleveland club now are
T. C. Dunn and P. S. Mccarthy of Chi :
cago. He said that the other stock
holders would be named later on. Both
Dunn and Mccarthy are personal
friends of Capt. Huston, who was loud
in their praises.
The real feature of the league meet
ing was the speech made by Phil Ball,
the new owner of the ST. Louis club.
Ball said that his connection with the
Federal league had been more pro-
ductfve of fun than of income He
certainly paid for his fun His first
year as a Federal league club owner
COST him $4,000, and his second year
set him back $4,000. He rs now out
for organized baseball and quick re-
turns.
Every owner and manager at the
meeting predicted one of the closest
races in the history of the league.
They all admitted that there are at
least six clubs in the running and
pointed out that it was almost inpos-
sible to judge which of the six would
have to be- eontented with second di-
vision berths.

LANGFORD DRAWS
WITH SAM M'vEA
IN CLEVER FIGHT

New York. Feb. 1s-sam Langford
and Sam McVea, the Notwithstanding
negro heavyweights, have fought
many a, draw between New York and
Australia by way of Paris in their
day. but never have they boxed a
cleverer exhibition than the 10-round
affair at Madison Square Garden last
night. There were lots of good, solid
punches exchanged and there was de-
fensive boxing shown beyond the
ability of the best of the white box
ers of the present ring generation.
There were no knockdowns and
never a suggestion of a knockout.
Both of the black men used all the
tricks of their boxing knowledge, and
from purely technical point of view
it was a pretty bout to watch. But
it was not what the crowd wanted.
Sam Langford's perilous short knock
out punch was several times on it's
way to McVea's cavenan jaw, but
each time it was under way it was
blocked with a quick. sbifty defense
which was so well timed that it was
hardly noticeable.

yelled for a knockout. They didn't

TO TAKE
CATCHER SMITH TO
CAMP IN GEORGIA

New York. Feb. 1s--Harry Smith,
the young catcher, who Joined the
GdantsNin tine fall of 1914, and finished

taken to the Macon training camp by
the Yankees, though Smith will not be
put under contract unless he shows
something.
Smith has had a peculiar career
since he first came to the Greater City.
In 1914 he came to the Giants from
Savannah after receiving a gold medal
for being the most valuable player IN
the Sally league. When Smith first
reported to the Giants he looked Like
another Ray Scha1k. McGraw was
enthusiastic about him, and expected
to develop him into a crack catcher.
Last spring, however, his work fell off
badly and he could neither catch nor
hit
The Giants gave him his uncoGad1-
tional release in nlidseason, and he
signed with the Brookfeds. where his
work also was poor. He hit only .215.
Harry thinks he had an off year. and
can show some of his 1914 form If he
gets another chance. and Bill Donovan
is willing to give him that chance.

NO DECISION TO
BE ALLOWED IN
Big GARDEN BOUT

New York. Feb. 1s-Unless either
party registers q knockout, the 10
round bout between Jess willard and
Frank Moran in Madison Square Gar
den the night of March rs will have
no bearing on the record of either
pugihst. The last faint hope that
a referees decision might widen the
possibility of a change Of ownership
to the title was snuffed out at yester-
days meeting of the State Athletic
Commission.
Frederick A. Wenclz, chairman of
the. commission, had been trying for
several months to elevate the manly
bouts would add interest to all glove
contests. He thought further that
colored pugilists should be allowed to
box with whites. Commissioners
Dwyer and F'raney held opposite
views. When Wenck presented his pet
amendments they promptly voted him
down by count of two to one.
This final decision came during a
discussion OF the new rules of boxing,
which have occupied the attention of
the commissioners since the first of
the year. The rules will be announced
within the course of a few days.
Unless Willard suffers an unexpect-
ed relapse the big contest will be on
March 25. Tex Rickard took over
yesterday afternoon the lease for that
date which Jack Curley and Harry
Pollok held on Madison Square Gar

greatly and that he should be able
to leave for New 7 York some, time early

Three B. Ell. S. Games
Booked For Tomorrow


Tomorrow will be bargain day at
the Colonial ballroom. Owing to the
fact that it will be the last game play
ed by the B.. H. s. teams there will
he three of them. The first game
will be between the B. H. s. Seconds
and the State Trade school team. The
second game will be between the To-
cal girls team and the Watertown
High school girls team and will be
followed by the big game, that is the
game between the local varsity and
the New Haven High school team.
The New Haven boys defeated the To-
Gals by two points over in New Ha-
ven a few weeks ago in what was
termed New Ravens fastest game.
The locals are handicapped by the
faculty who at moments notice may
bar amy Of the fellows from playing
The faculty is more particular about
the basketball team than about some
of the other teams and that seems
rather unfair. The faculty may keep
one or more of the fellows from play
ing after tonorrow's game, so it will
be the last time the team as it is
now composed will be seen this year
shall, P1ous. Porter and last but not
least Clancy will be quite a buIwarlk
for the New Haven boys to overcome.

game, Both teams claiming the game.

ford was not so the thing stands as

ford in the latter town by a larger
score SO it looks like q. win for the
home team tomorrow.
