The Lightweight Champions
Guide Talks Like a House
On Fire.
By ALEX. SULLIVAN.

-OM JONES. manager Of "A VOL
CAST, the lightweight champion
4 of America, likes to talk big
figures. II you want to converse with
him II has to be Of sums ranging from
ten thousand to one hundred thousand
dollars
To hear Tom tell II. every day Of his
ufe he 10 making q thousand dollars
or more for himself or his hstic won
der. He 10 constantly cleaning up for
tunes in oil wells. land deals or some
thing like that.
And Jones dresses Just a. loud a. he
talks. He manages to wear the nolsest
clothes that can be purchased and Is
covered with diamond emblems. pins
and rings that would make kings IA
vorite daughter green with envy.
And It is his unwillingness TO talk
business unless It IL In big sums
that will probably keep him from
matching his charge with Packey NC
Fariand. He believes that as Woigast
II the champion he 10 entitled to the
larger portion Of the receipts in q bout
against the stockyard's sensation.
FIohTGRs SHOULD De REASON.
ABLE, SAYS JONES.
IT all OF these fighters want to get
Q chance to win the lightweight title
why don't they agree to be reasonable
In their demands. Why when We won
the championship from Bat Nelson a
couple OF years ago We got about a
fourth OF what Nelson received and
about q tenth Of what was in the house.
And we were glad to get even this conf
paratively small percentage to get an
opportunity Of landing the crown.
II can't see for the life OF me why
some OF these managers don't get wise
to themselves and hght Wolgast for
nothing. II need be. for they know they
are sure OF a fortune In theatrical dates
and rims engagements as soon as they
capture the title.
"As to Mcfarland. We are willing to
fght HIM anywhere, at any time. but
he mustn't think for . moment that
he'll get as much money as we'll COM
msnd for no won't. I'll make a
proposition to Packey. I'll guarantee
him a t2,500 bit for his end II he'll
meet Wolgast In Q twenty-round bout

THE CULTURE
OF BARLEY

The following paper on barley cul-
ture was read by DR.. C. e. Remaly
at the last meeting of the Farmers
Society OF Equity:
There are two great classes of bar.
lev: Bearded, mailing and non-
mailing; beardless, mailing and nom
1nalting: also three great types, hui
less, two-rowed and six-rowed.
The barley crop throughout the larg-
er part of the United States is one
that has been rapidly growing in i'm
portance in recent years. Its growth
has been especially rapid in the north
central states and in the northern
states of the Great Plains country
which includes the state of Montana.
1t is obvious that the reason for this
is due to the fact that these districts
are particularly we'll adapted for bar
ley cultivation, and further to the
fact that barley is so much more ex-
tensively used in stock feeding. Not
alone has the acreage increased tre-
mendously but the yield per acre has
shown a conside rable increase, evi-
IDENTIFY on account OF better methods
of cultivation, the establishment of
better varieties and the selection Of
those varieties which are best adapt
ed to the several districts.
There are two we'll naked barley
districts in the United States. One
extends over Wisconsin and Mime
sofa, including the entire Red River
valley. The other extends over the
northern portion OF the Great Plains
country, including both Of the Dako-
tas, eastern and central Montana,
and portions of Wyoming and Me-
braska.
BY Investigations made by the de-
partment Of agriculture it has been
quite thoroughly demonstrated that
the six-rowed barley is much better
adapted to the regions including Wis
cOnsin and Minnesota, because there
we find more rainfall, more timber
and generally the climate is cooler.
The two-rowed varieties will almost
invariably bring the best results in
the Great Plains country, and especi-
ally in Mentana, The varieties here
tofore most extensively grown in
Montana are the following:

SPECIAL MEETING
COMMERCIAL CLUB

The meeting was called to order by
president {. l.. Beers.
First in order was the reading of
the minutes of the previous meeting
by the secretary. 1t was moved and
seconded that the minutes stand ap-
proved as read; mo ion carried. A re-

the same made in the form OF the re-
monstrance drawn up for the purpose
Of starting an opposition movement.
The report was read by the SCI ratary

that the the vacant room in the new
school building desired by the club
could be secured at IA rental of $50. 90
per month during the winter season
and $500 per month during the sum-
mer season. This to include heating
and janitor service. 1t was suggest

hemian, two-rowed, and Hanna.
Hulless or nOn-malting; White,
beardless; Guy Mahle, strongly beard
ed, siX-rowed.
Reports from Montana experiment
stations show the relative yields Of
the three great types Of barley as
follows: Hulless. six varieties, 67 %
bushels or 3.247 pounds per acre; two
rowed, 24 varieties, ~ 1-2 bushels, or
3,Ool.s pounds per acre; siN-rowed, 3
varieties, So bushels, or 2,54O.5
pounds per acre.
The relatively high average yield of
the hulless barley as compared with
the other types suggests its splend d
feeding possibilities. With the grow
ing demand for hulless barley by the
manufacturers of certain food prod
ucts and AS its splendid feeding value
when raised on dry rs well as irrigat-
ed land it is reasonable to expect
greatly increased production of this
particular crop. Contrary to the ex-
perience of many localities the two
rowed barley is larger yielder than
the six-rowed. This superiority is
not confined to the grain only, but is
noted in the yield of straw and weight
per measured bushel. Its growth
period, however. covers Is days long
er than the six-rowcd. but from the
;rt of win nj. ,.1x
perior strain. On the average there
are l.53 pounds Of straw for each
pound of grain produced. The six-
rowed barley does not seem to be 50
we'll adapted for growth in this sec
ton as do the other kinds. 1t is the
earliest maturing of any Of the varie-
ties, but is inferior in yield Of both
grain and straw as well as weight per
bushel. Average LAB pounds OF
straw tor each pound Of grain har-
vested.
Maintaining pure seed: The sub
ject Of getting unmixed seed is Of the
greatest Importance and should al
ways receive careful attention. The
farmer can not. of course, do accurate
breeding exactly according to the
methods employed by the experiment
stations, but he can largely maintain
the quality Of the strain or variety he
already possesses, keeping it fairly
pure, we'll cleaned and graded, and
occasionally selecting the best plants
from the field for starting u small
seed plat. 1t Is especially important
to keep two-rowed barley absolutely
separate from six-rowed barley. 1t
is better not to grow these two kinds
even on the same farm. Many far
mers over large area should unite in

growing strictly one kind Of barley.
after being fairly sure that they have
selected the one most satisfactory.
Cultivation: So much instruction
in the way of cultivation of any crop
depends upon the conditions in par
ticular localities that it is not wise to
make more than a few general state
ments in respect to this subject for
district of any size. There are, how
ever, several principles of a general
nature to be observed. In the irst
place, much of the larger portion of
the area Of the Great Plains has II
comparatively low annual rainfall,
and it is therefore important to use
every measure for the conservation of
moisture in the soil. This is to Il
large extent accomplished by thorough
surface cultivation after occasional
deep plowings. AS a rule, it is i'm
portant in this area that all blowing
for spring grains should be done the
preceding season, though there may
be occasional local circumstances
that would require modification of
this practice. After the ploWing is
done, it is at any rate certain that oc-
casional surface cultivation, especial
ly after rains, is OF the greatest i'm
! portance.
The rate of seeding will range from
1-2 to l-2 bushels, depending upon
the locality and particularly upon the
amount of rainfall. There is no ques-
ti0n that seeding should be done with
| drill planting the seed about 2 in.
deep. A much better and more UNI
form stand is obtained in this way,
and the grain is thus better protected
from the action of dry winds, especi-
ally if drilled at right angles to the
prevailing direction OF the wind.
AS already mentioned, special at
tention hOuld be given to
the quality q, the seed. Not only
should the seed be kept free from
mixture at threshing time and we'll
cleaned and graded, but it is usually
advisable 10 use homegrown seed if
it is of good quality. introduced
seed is better only when it represents
some new variety preferable to others
OF the same class or when it happens
to come from district little better
adapted for barley cultivation.
When ha r1ov ic coola<l ~ &ho naval
time. it is harvested early enough to
allow the producer to plow the stub

better crop the following season.

Professor Shepperd makes the follow
ing remark:
Time of seeding: Comparing our ie-
cal climatic conditions with surround
ing barley growing districts it would
seem that the proper time for seed
ing this grain is from the first to ,he
middle OF May.
The young barley may be cul wat
ed with harrow with great rowan
tage after attaining a height Of iNree
or four inches, particularly il th.7 Is
done after ralEs. The loss OF nols-
ture due to the formation OF a east
is thus prevented.
Barley should not be allowed "a 3,'-
come discolored by exposure to vet
weather. DiscOloration d-ineejHtes -
it's value for commercial pull Gaes
and the crop should be hatvesttb IS
soon as it is fully ripe. O..v of &c
most important things in harley c;i-
ture is the preservation OF IT. rotor
after harvesting. and that n,,"5tE N,t
it is absolutely necessary that barley
be well stacked promptly after snocn-
ing. A short exposure in the a..ock
is frequently fatal to the good color
OF the kernel and consequently great
loss in value of the grain.
