After that Tommy whipped Kid Doyle at little town in Indiana and then went to Canada and put away Ed Bartlett. Shortly before his twenty frs, birthday Ryan was matched with Danny Needham, the Pacific coast boxer, for the welterweight title. Mn neapolis was the scene of this bout, and Ryan won by a, knockout in the seventy-sixth round. Tommy clinct ed his right to the championship T defeating Mysterious Billy Smith in 1894. Tommy gave Smith a return match the following year, and had a mighty close call. He was about all in when the cops interfered. After, a time the bout was resumed, and Ryan had the best of it until the eighteenth round, when the Coney Island ''bulIs'' stopped the affair. which was called draw.

IT WAS just IS years ago Saturday

T WAS just IS years ago Saturday, March 21, 1901, that Kid Broad knocked out Young Corbett in the fourth round at Denver. Broad was a great little featherweight and one of the most promising contenders for |, the crown then worn by Terry Nc Govern. Early in 1901 Broad fought 25 round draw at Louisville with Dave Sullivan, the ex-featherweigh champion. His quick victory over Young Corbett made him a favorite, and in the following July he defeated Billy Gardner in Bridgeport.
 Broad then consented to another meeting with Young Corbett in Den yer, and was defeated in 10 rounds The Colorado boy a little later de- deated George Dixon, and was then matched with Terry McGovern. The first of the three bouts between Young Corbet and Terrible Terry was pull ed off in Hartford in November, and the '.unbeatable" McGovern was knocked out in the second round by the man who, few months before, had been knocked out by Kid Broad. \ ACK M'AULIFFE, the old time q lightweight champion, had one of the stiffest bouts of his career 29 years ago Saturday, March 21. 1890, when he tackled Jimmy Carroll in San Francisco. McAuIifre was the victor, but 1t took him 47 rounds to batter English Jimmy into subnts- sion.

copied from the Sudan is the estab
lishment OF local cotton markets un-
der government supervision, with al
official grader, and, of course, stand
ard weights for the protection of the
small growers, 1t must be worth the
growers while to raise the given crop.
Another great advantage would be at
tanned if the buying agencies were es-
tablished. The individual cultivator
will at first be able to raise only linn
tied quantities of cotton of the better
grade cotton, and in the open mar
ket small lots will not command their
true value, owing to difficulties of
handling and transport. A buying
agency would collect, gin and resell
the cotton in bulk. This is type OF
organization that Lancashire as well
as Bombay spinners might set up,
The establishment of model planta-
lions is another desirable method OF
improving cultivation. In course OF
time, and not a long time either, there
could be chain of these plantations
running through the cotton area. 1t
was the idea of a scheme framed by
the International Federation of Cotton
Spinners shortly before the war that
model plantation should be run on
commercial lines, but that a limit
should put on the Invisible profit
The recent commission may have re-
vised this idea and found it more de-
sirable that model plantations should
pay their way. The report of the
commission is awaited with interest
and it is hoped that its recommends
lions will be taken into immediate
consideration.

irrigation system may also be neces-
sary. Another requirement is some
such arrangement as that which has
been successfully adopted in the Sou
dan to prevent the mixing of cotton in
the ginneries. Deterioration must in
evitably ocur when the mixed seed
are sown in the following year, and
that is one explanation of the low
quality of the Indian staple. The rem
edy is probably to be found in the Ii
censing of ginneries in the Sudan. The
penalty for mixing or fraudulent dam
pening of the cotton is the withdrawal
of the license.

COUNTY BUILDS BARNS TO

In a forest fire that swept yer St.
Louis county, Mimi, the night of Oc-

and such cattle as escaped were left
utterly without shelter from the nor

That was Saturday. Monday,
while other agencies were looking out
for the human beings left homeless,
the farm bureau and the county agent
laid before the county commissioners
a plan for assembling and caring for
the cattle in central barns to be built
by the county. The plan was accept
ed and the county agent was author.
lied to go ahead and build the barns
Wednesday, the plans for the barns
were completed, orders for material
were being placed and a construction
crew was being assembled.
Friday, work on the barns began.
One week and one day later, Sat.
urday, October 26, just two weeks at
ter the fire, II central barns, each &c
by 70 feet, were completed.
The barns built for dairy cows haye
floors and cutters, stalls, managers
watering facilities, and a feed room
Separate barns with large box stall:
were built for dry COWS and young
stock. All the barns are substantial
ly built and we'll lighted and venti

Thus the farmers who were burn
ed out will not need to worry abou
their cattle until grass comes again
The county hires a man to care TO
the animals and to handle the mill
produced. The farmers who live nea
enough to the barns are privilege
to get milk from their cows for fam
lily use. All the rest of the milk i
