Jeffries Is confident that he can take Angel Luis Firpo and develop a good left hand for the South American. Jeffries says that it takes a fighter to teach the manly art, and he is confident that under his instructions Firpo can lick Jack Dempsey. Jeffries is of the firm belief that the champion has seen his best day and that he is now on his downward course. That is one reason why Jack is, anixous to retire after a few more fights. Like other fighters he just feels like defeat is coming on and he wants to get it over with. There is no doubt that under the tutorship of Jeffries, former world champion, that Firpo would improve wonderfully, but he would have to in order to stand any show with the champion. Dempsey hit him coming and going and it was only a miracle that the South American was not counted out in the first round. NEW BOXING RULE. The New York boxing commission has enacted a new ruling as regards (the count when a man is down. From now on the referee will not commence his count until the standing boxer retires to his corner. Heretofore the man has stood over his fallen foe ready to administer punishment the moment the fallen mans hands were lifted from the padded mat. VINCENTINI A WINNER. South America has sent another The fighter to the United tSates. sports from that country are bound to give us a run for our money. Our boys are willing to meet them all. The latest addition is Luis Vincentini, a Chilean lightweight, who so far has knocked his first three opponents cuckoo for the count. SUCCESS WITH PHEASANTS Pheasants are easy to raise in suitable localities and with the proper feed. Some of the boys have had trouble with the young birds and say that they have all died on their hands. The success of raising pheasants depends mainly upon the feed for the first two or three days which should consist of insect life; In order to provide this for the young birds, it is a good scheme to secure a sheep pluck and hang it up in the coop where the .birds are confined. This should be done about ten days before hatching time, and the big blow flies will do the rest. The maggots which are hatched in the pluck drop to the ground and makes an ideal food for the newly hatched birds. In a few days the young birds will take other food which they can digest and gradually work to where they can eat grains. If this preliminary feeding is attended to, the party raising the birds will have success. Pheasants should be kept in a run where they can hide. If a patch of bushes can be fenced, so much the better, both for the old and young birds. The closer to nature the vity can be made, the better the birds will grow and it will take less care to produce fine specimens. The ideal places to raise pheasants are in the country. . MANY DEER. A farmer was taking a five ton truck load of cauliflower to market on Long Island. He had to travel through a stretch of marshland and the truck with its heavy load sunk to the hubs, where it was left standing until tackle could be secured to pull it out. While the farmer was gone, a band of wild deer came along and nearly ate up the entire load and the remainder left was so spoiled that it could not be sold in the market. The first settlements in America were made near Long Island and after about 400 years of settlement, we still find deer plentiful. With but 75 years of settlement in Utah, we find the deer nearly exterminated. Its all a matter of protection. FORD WILL SWAMP MARKET WITH BIG SUPPLY OF FLIVERS The announcement made by Henry Ford that he would soon be producing 10,000 cars a day is being looked upon with great concern by many of the automobile dealers. The more Fords that are produced the harder it is to sell other cars, especially of the low priced kind. There are also many people of moderate means who are taking a kindly liking to the flivver, especially the coupe and sedan. Many of the older firms have consolidated for beneficial purposes and such firms are able to turn out better cars than heretofore. The problem of second hand cars is becoming quite serious and many firms have lost their all by trading in too many of the old worn out busses. Some trading there must be if new cars are to be sold, or the owners of the old cars refuse to purchase and drive the old wagon as long as it can be made to go. GOULD IS ENGAGED. Mayor Neslen announces that Herbert Gould, eminent Chicago basso, has been engaged as base soloist for The Messiah to be presented in the Tabernacle the afternoon of New Years. At the meeting of the board of directors, Mrs. P. M. Barry succeeded Mrs. Ethel Chapce, who resigned as a member of the board, and Royal W. Daynes took the place of Paul Banker who has left the, city. Commissioner M. R. Stewart is very busy making preparations for the municipal Christmas tree and the weeks program to be given in connection with the tree, to be displayed and held at the City and County building. Commissioner Stewart says that efforts will be made to secure a Christmas present for all the needy children. The chiming of the city bells will mark the lighting of the tree, and holiday openhouse will be kept during the week, closing New Years day. .
