THE SURPRISING PART OF THE
whole affair is how as wise a sporting
man as Jack Curley let himself in for
an affair that looks like a certain
bloomer. Curley has already. spent
pot of money on the fight. and it's
pretty safe guess that If johnson does
not see the color of that $4,000 he
won't enter the ring. so if the attend
ance falls down. Curley win have to
throw good money after bad or call
off the fight at the last moment 1t is
this situation that has given rise to
so many cries of fake, with betting
and the motion pictures offering them
selves as a sure out should Flynn
manage to win. especially after about
ten rounds.
Curley is said to have spent a good
ly sum on the portable arena. which
was built in Kansas City and shipped
to Las Vegas in sections, and which
is designed to seat 1880 persons.

all sorts of fireworks are apt to hap

position is JDhnson's inordinate van-

with a championship mean more to Lii

ON JULY a TWO WORLDS CHAM

ON JULY q TWO WORLDS CHAM
pionships OF the ring are TO be decided
That is, one event is champion
ship and the other is a joke, but the
fact remains that titles are at stake
and that both fights are of considerable
Importance in sporting circles. The
Johnson Flynn min, at Las Vegas, is,
of course. the joke. while the meeting
between AID Wolgast and the Mexican
serapper Joe Rivers is not creating the
interest that other lightweight cham
pionships have stirred up.
The yachting crowd. recently arriv-
ed on the transpacific racers, bring the
latest first-hand news from the scene
of the Wolgast-R Rivers affair, where
they heard a lot Of comment on the
chances of each. 1t will be somewhat
ofsa surprise TO Honolulu fans, who
haven't heard much talk about VOL
CAST since he returned to the ring, to
learn that Los Angeles is all Rivers,
and that the dope there is to the effect
his operation and that the Mexican
will win in walk.
r. j. McElroy of the HaMaii's crew
says that it will be a big surprise.to
Los Angeles If Wolgast even lasts
through the fight. much less wins it.
Those who follow the fight game
closely say that Wolgast has gone
back so far that he won't have a real
chance with Rivers. said McElroy
why, / heard OF bets of to l made
just before we left, with Wolgast the
long shot They think whole lot Of
the Mexican, and can't figure Wolgast
at ALL
The champions first try-out, against
Willie Richie. in San Francisco didn't
tend to inspire confidence in his abil-
ity to defend the title. and it would not
be surprising If that much talked-of
lightweight crown had to be reblocked
to fit another head.

A BOOSTER FOR IMPERIAL
VALLEY.

NJ D. Witter. manager of the Draw
ley News, last week published a 80
page holiday edition of the paper
showing the wonderful progress that
has been made in the valley along
the different lines of agriculture and
industry. The paper is especially in
.'trdctive for those interested in the
Imperial valley due to the accuracy
of statements throughout and the lack
of the exaggeration that usually
marks an edition of this nature. The
mechanical work was done almost en-
tirely in the office of the News. 1t
IS a credit to Brawley and those who
ar responsible for it.

PLANTING LONG STAPLE COTTON

The worlds supply of cotton has
for fifty years come from the Gulf
states. During this time the differ
ent countries of Europe have been
searching the world for places suit
able for the raising of cotton. To a
certain extent India has furnished
cotton and in the central part OF
Africa a small amount has been rails
ed However the Nile valley has
long produced the worlds best cotton
Egyptian.
Now the Imperial valley has come
forward with a cotton that is found
io be as good as that of Egypt. Early
experiments here in the valley show
ed conclusively that it was an ideal
spot for the raising of cotton But
this was not enough. In order to
compete with the cheap land and
cheap labor of the southern states,
it would be necessary for this valley
to either produce better grade OF
cotton, or else to raise great deal
more on each acre of land
The result was that those interest
ed in the cotton industry in the val
ley begain search for a kind of cot
ton that would bring higher price
per pound, and which could be rails
ed here with as little difficulty as
any other kind of cotton
With the aid of the government
specialists. experiments were begun
with the Durango variety.
During the last year, to stimulate
an interest in the raising of this long
staple variety, the cotton men offer
ed suitable prizes to the school boys
ton on a given half acre. The seed
was furnished by the government
and the prizes were to be awarded al
the county fair The result of the
efforts of the school boys showed
that with the proper care any one
could average a bale to the acre OF
this long staple Durango cotton.
The cost of production is found to
be about $50 per acre. This includes
the cost of water, picking, hauling
and ginning The last season, the
long staple variety brought a price
of about eighteen cents per pound
Tie result was that those wide awake
ranchers who had planted Durango
cotton obtained a net profit of over
fifty dollars to the acre
This year it is estimated that there
wi" be 10000 acres of Durango cot.
ton alone planted in this valley, and
eventually this cotton will take the
place of the short staple variety This
will leave the Imperial valley the
largest producer of the long staple
cotton in the United States.
AS an indication of what outsiders
are thinking of the raiisng of cotton
in the Imperial valley, one should
note the numbers of cotton buyers
that flock to this territory. Buyers
come all the way from Japan to pur-
chase the cotton from this valley. At
the Los Angeles harbor plans have
been made for the shipping of this
cotton to all parts of the world. Not
only this, but there is large market
for this cotton at home. During the
season 1909 and 10 the United States
imported $15,000,0OO worth of Egypt
ian cotton, which should have come
from the Imperial valley. No There
is no doubt in the minds of thinking
men as to the future of the cotton
industry here.-Brawley News.

5 YOUNG MINES
ENTER LEAGUE
Under Supervision of Play
around Officials.

Only n Of the baseball leagues
which will be under the supervision
of Fairgrounds authorities has re-
ceived much attention and that Is
the organization of mines averaging
from 10 to 15 years old. Five teams
of lads have already sent in their
entries and low it appears that the
league will flourish as rules and
orders will be received from the
Fairgrounds authorities who know
exactly how to handle such organi-
cations.
The following teams have already
entered. Aocrns, DeKalbs. St. Jo-
sephs' lroquois, Jrs.. and the Brooks.
The entries for teams In this class
will be kept open for several days
more and after that no teams will be
allowed to enter. So all you young
lads who expect to play in this
league, which will no doubt be a
great success, even as great as
Skinny" shanner's' league, better
form a team and enter 1t now.
There are two aggregations who
have already entered the class av-
eraging from Is to IS years. But
1t Is ecessar that several more
squads put their In this league
before It becomes active. Little
more time will be spent in organ
1zing this league and unless the boys
do some tall hustling, they will be
deprived of a ~gtlt-edged opportunity
to have organized baseball. in which
such great interest has been built
everywhere 1t occurred.
The copper works diamond will
probably be the stamping grounds
of the leagues, although some lot
may be picked from the Neville
street grounds and a baseball dia-
mond may be made. The playing
space will not hinder the leagues
progress in the least, the superinten-
dent of Fairgrounds declared today.
