Farm Editor Says
Daylight Saving
Survey Misleading
Popular Vote Would Show Cities
Want Standard Time, Editor East
man Tells Farmers.

The canvas of employees of indus
trial plants on the merits of daylight
saving does not give a crosslsection
of average city opinion on this i'm
portant subject, according to E. R.
Eastman, Editor of the American
Agriculturist, in a letter made pub
lie this week by the New Jersey Fed
Grafton of County Boards of Agric-
ulture. The incident in question is
the recent report of the John A..
Roebliing Company survey of its
workers, which showed practically
two-thirds of its employs in favor of
advancing the clock one hour during
the summer months.
Mr.. Eastman, who has studied the
effects of daylight saving in the
Eastman States for the lat four years
states that "there never yet has been
true popular expression of opinion
on the question of daylight saving
and che is convinced that if all cit
liens of any state should vote on it,
there would be an overwhelming
sentiment in favor of standard time"
In a recent issue of an important
central New Jersey newspaper, there
was news article about question
naire taken in John A. Roebling's
Sons Company on daylight saving.
The article reports that 1925 en-
ployes voted for daylight saving and
$50 against it.

Villa Must
Learn How To
Stop GrOggy Foes

Pancho Villa is Il fine little fight
ing machine but lacks one essential
that makes for greatness. He cannot
finish groggy fighter. This is Il
phase of fighting that calls for cX-
pert work.
Dempsey very seldom lets man
get away from him once he wounds
him. Ditto Leonard. The other
champions, however, do not rate high
us 'finiohers." There is more of
shrewdncss in their makeup than
savagery.
Villa should have finished Jimmy
Wilde in two rounds at the most.
The mite Englishman was groegy
and helpless early in the fight. Villa
didn't have the knack of Bringing
over the big punch. Ultimately Wilde
dropped from exhaustion.
Villa showed this same inefficiency
against Tony Norman, Pittsburg fly
weight, whom he dropped twice, but
could not finish.
More recently the Filipino cuffed
and battered Charley Marks, Cali
fornia bantamweight, all around the
ring, hitting him withleverything but
the Tea Pot Dome. One well-timed,
solid punch at almost any stage of
the fight would have ended it. Villa,
however, was not equal to the task.
