With interest running at a high
pitch over the coming heavyweight
wrestling match at the Chestnut
Street Auditorium Tuesday night in
which DR.. b. +. Roller, the famous
surgeon wrestler, will tackle Tom
Draak two falls out of three to a
finish, there are many fans who have
asked the same question, "why does
DR.. Roller, a man rated with the
best surgeons in the country, con-
tinue to appear in professional wrest-
ling matches?
The fans who attended the Lewis
Roller match here a short time ago
were given a short talk by doc" and
are fully acquainted with Rollers
reasons for continuing the ancient
sport.
A large percentage of the athletes
die young, this is no doubt due to
the fact that after following the
game for a certain length of time
they drop out of training. An ath-
lete who follows a game as strenu-
Gus as wrestling develops the heart
and lungs to about twice the normal
size. Exertion, caused by long hard
fought contests demands greater cir
culation, and to obtain this the lungs
grow in proportion to the heart
When an athlete breaks training,
ceases to do hard work there is no
use for the enlarged heart and lungs,
consequently, the tissues die. Tu-
berculosis frequently contracted in
just this manner has caused the
death of not only the wrestler, and
boxer, but the runner and football
star as we'll.
Wrestling has been a long cherished
sport by the famous physician ath-

Question.
Is it practical to raise rabbits for
the market please give what informa-
tlon you nave on raDDlt raising!
MILTON GREGORY.
Milwaukee, Wis.
Answer.
Rabbit farms are becoming an in
dustry. California has n large fur
rabbit farm, where the meat is pack
ed as tin-potted hare. Hamilton,
Canada. has a Black Serbian Rabbit
farm, for fur and meat. They at
times attain a weight of IA pounds,
they grow rapidly and breed pro-
fuse1y. One doe will produce about
100 young in eight months, the meat
can be produced for five cents per
pound, the pelts are a good quality
of rabbit fur. Our Jack Rabbit, which
is classed and hunted. by our western
ranch owners. as a farm nuisance and
killed off during the Jack rabbit
round ups" by the million is declared
by Department of Agriculture as good
game meat when fresh and that the
game when corned and smoked are
preferable to German goose hams.
Question.
Is the fur of rabbits utilized as a
practical fur for wearing purposes,
is it sold as rabbit fur or under an
other name.
FRANK HUNLEY.
Evansville. I'd.
Answer.
Great Britain before the worlds
war, imported each year 70,000,O00
to 90, ,000,0 900 rabbit skins, home pro-
duction added 30,000,000 more. More
skins of rabbits were collected and
sold annually than of all other fur
animals combined. The better kinds
of rabbit skins are used for making
fur garments which, when made up
are commonly sold as "cony." often
under other trade names. White rab-
bit skins are made up as Arctic fox
or sheared in imitation of ermine.
Gray rabbits are dyed black or brown
and become Baltic black fox or
Baltic brown fox" Seal-dyed they
become inland seal, coast seal, cleo
trio seal or near seal. Reputable
furriers avoid such names and sell
the goods as rabbit or cony. These
garments, are handsome and COM
Portable but having little durability,
are therefore cheap.

three or four months, could be

The East Oregonian knows

1t is one requiring no new legis-

Let the husband think but
