Fistie World Guffawed.

vTy HEN little Charley Mitch

" big John l.. Sullivan the
fstic world no doubt guffawed.
Yet Mitchell gave Sullivan thun-
dering battle and carried him to
thirty-nine rounds for q draw at
ChantilIy. France. ..i.
Z Old timers claim that Sullivan
wss' one Of the greatest fighters
thaty ever lived. He weighed 196
pounds and was 5 feet 10h inches
tall. Mitchell weighed 165 pounds
and was 8 feet 8 inches tall.
Here Is at least one case where
the old ring adage that a good big
man can always beat q good little
man was set at naught. And Greb
has certainly proved three times
hand-running that the bigger they
are, the higher he can climb on
th<m. -.
Greb is an inch shorter than
Mitchell and weighs between 162
and 164 pounds. Dempsey ID six
feet one and half inches tall
and his best fighting weight is
probably q little above 100 pounds.
Dempsey gave away to Willard
fully as much difference In size
as there Is between himself and
Greb.
The Washington times., 1922-06-17

The fact that Greb Is compare
lively small seems to cause many
persons to think Dempsey would
have an easy time with him. Yet
It must be remembered that Greb's
speciality is licking big men, and
that 1t is the men smaller than
himself who have given Dempsey
the most trouble.

CUlLiNG WORK
PROVES OF GREAT VALUE

Data recently compiled show that
the poultry culling demonstration
hat were conducted In the ella Val
ley in August by the county agricul-
:nral agent and the poultry extension
specialist of the University of Ari-
IONA were very successful. Nine OF
these demonstrations were held in
the various communities in the val
ley. Exact records were kept on the
demonstration flocks for period of
seven days before the demonstrations
and for seven days after the culling.
The following summary indicates the
value of this culling work:
Number of hens in flocks before
demonstrations. 1854; average num-
ber of eggs produced each day be-
fore demonstrations. .440; total mum
ber of hens in flocks after culls were
|removed, TIA; average number of
eggs produced each day after re-
moving culls, 415; number OF hens
removed as culls. 220: number OF
eggs produced each day by culls, 13;
percent of production in original
flocks before cuIling, 41.3; per cent
Of production Of hens retained as
good hens. 47.2; per cent of produc
tion of hens discarded as culls, 1T
1t is not practicable to get com
plete estimate of the value resulting
to the poultrymen Of the valley from
these demonstrations. In most in
stances those in attendance at the
demonstrations went home and culled
their own flocks according to the
instructions given so that the value
accruing to the poultrymen OF the
valley would be increased many
times over that shown from the dem
onstration flocks.
