MACON, Ga. Dec. 27.-"From ban tamweight to welterweight champion in IS months!"
 On July 9. 1s22-less than six months ago-that sentence in Dixie sport columns introduced a story telling of the phenomenal rise of Young Stribllng, boxer. Five days before the story was published Strib had defeated Jake Abel for the southern welterwelght championship.
 Since that time. the welterweight chapter has been finished and in the history of Strips meteor-like ring experience. still another chapter, the middleweight division, is waning.
 Tuesday. December 26, was his eighteenth birthday. Young Strib- ling. high school boy and star basket ball player on the Lanier team, is routing the middlewelght claimants in this section. For five years Macon had claimed him as her own, each sharing the honor of thJs re- lation.
 From bantamweight to middle weight in 21 months.
 Rises in Five Glasses
 That's what wv. L." has done, for 1t was 21 months ago that he be- gan his professional ring work. Five classes in 21 months is said to be a record and with the announce ment from Pa" Stribling that the boy will enter the light-heavy di- vision at the end of the current bas- ket ball season, an even greater record will become a reallty-six classes, bantam, feather, lightweight, middleweight, light heavyweight-in two years-and the boy still has three more full years ahead of him before he will reach his majorityi
 Never Knocked off Feet
 There are many unusual things In Strips record. One of the most out standing is the fact that he never has been knocked off his feet. He has engaged in 5s fights and before tho tkd of this week two moro will have been added.
 Figures on these 5s fights follow: Strib won by knockout .15 Won by decision ................3O 30 Draw fights totaled ..-.......... 10 No decision fights .........i..-ri.s Lost by decision ................ 2
 For the average prize fighter, two fights a month as the only occupa- tion, usually constitutes full pro gram. However, in the 21 months that Strib has been fighting, he has averaged almost three fights month and, in addition, has been attending high school regularly throughout this time. Some months the boy has fought as often as once week.
 Not Lnx in Studies
 Strib is doing something more than attend" school. Reports are that he keeps up with all of his classes. despite the fact that he Is forced to be out of town much of the time.
 A number of years ago. the boy and his father, "Pa" Stribling, made an agreement. The father said that he would develop the boys body if "Nv. L." in turn, would take care of the development of his own mind.
 The father-andso agreement has been more binding than many legal contracts, for 1t was founded upon the love of the one for the other thing stronger than any code of laws which man might make, for love was not conceived by man.
 Hns Lost only Twice
 Strips record shows that he has lost only two fights, both by deci- sion. After losing to Dick Leonard once, tle Macon boy trounced the Savannah lad three times. Battling Budd of Atlanta is the other pug

 Continuing. Hermann said:
 'T,le sudden ard involuntary retirement of two players from ishing of another player was due to an attempt to make a crook out of Rube Benton, according to evidence set forth in the pres ence of various major league leaders. One day i1 1919 Benton was told by John McGraw to hold himself in readiness to pitch tho next days game against the Cubs. That night, according to the evidence, three other men took Benton to 8 saloon. One man offered Benton $500 to throw the next days game. tho others add ed sf00 each, and hand book gambler present in tho saloon added $100 more---or $500 in all. Next day Benton pitched superbly and won that game. Then he hold his story. The retirement Of the suspected players followed quick lv.

SHEEP CARE DURING WINTER
Breeding Ewes Should Be Kept
Thrifty and Not Allowed to
Lose In Weight.

| prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
AT this season the flock owner Is
principally interested In fall and win
ter feeding and maintenance. The
shepherd should train himself to read
the condition of his sheep by feeling
the bone of the loin or back. At no
time while they are in lamb should
ewes be allowed to lose weight. In
open, wet, fall seasons there Is danger
or waiting too long to start feeding.
Winter management Is very impOr-
tant In its effect upon the returns
from the flock. Leguminous hays,
straws and cornstalks usually form
the main part of economical winter
ratiOns Glover, alfalfa or cowpea hay,
If of good quality, may be used as the
sole feed until near lambing time, from
to 31a pounds daily being sufficient
for ewes weighing less than $50
pounds. Oat and wheat straw are
better than rye or barley straw. Corn
stalks placed where the ewes can eat
off the leaves may be used as a part
of the roughage ration. If this ration
is made up largely Of cOinstalks or
straw, nitrogenous concentrate
should also be used. Timothy hay is
not good sheep feed.
Silage will reduce the cost of the
ration, but 1t Is best to use 1t with hay.
Feed only silage made from well-ma-
tured corn, and be sure that it is not
spoiled, frozen or moldy. Three
pounds per head day is the limit for
this feed. For breed ewes, roots, par
ticularly turnips should be used spar
ingly until after lambing. The two
ratiOns here given will be found salts
factory for ewes from 120 to 145
pounds In weight:
Ration No. 1.
2 pounds alfalfa or cowpea hay.
pounds corn silage.
n pound sheled corn.
Ration No. 2.
2h pounds alfalfa hay
pounds corn silage.
If the ewes run on fall wheat or rye
during the winter the pasture must
be supplemented by some dry or con-
centrated feed. Silage and roots are
not desirable when the pasture Is
green. One-half pound of cottonseed
meal contains the daily protein re-
The Owosso times., 1922-03-31

quirement for pregnant ewes and II
should be used when the price Is right.
However, a quarter-pound along with
other feeds containing protein may be
better than one containing n larger
amount of cottOnseed meal.
Exercise for the eve i'm winter is
necessary If strong lambs are to be
produced. They tan be induced to
take exercise by scattering their feed
over the ground which will induce
them to do a great deal of walking.
Another way Is to do the feeding some
distance from the shelter. Winter
pasture will, of course, solve the prob
lem of exercise. But the flock ought
not TO be out In rain or wet snow, as a
wet fleece Is frequent cause of colds
and pneumonia. A sheep will shake
off dry snow and be none the worse
for having been out In a storm.
Present conditions should be no dis
couragement to person who thinks
of starting flock, for the man who
succeeds with live stock Is the one
who goes in and stays in through fat
years and lean. Perhaps 1t is better
to go in when prices are low, for then
II costs less for foundation stock.
1t Is doubtful whether a man should
start keeping sheep unless his farm
will allow the keeping Of at least 30
ewes, and In most cases GO or more
will be handled better and more eco
nomically than u very small flock. Old
ewes should be discarded at five years
of age. When this Is done and the
poorest of the eve lambs are sold a
flock will ordinarily double In size in
three years.
