many years it has been the aim of
eminent cerealists to produce a
wheat that would combine earllness,
productiveness, milling and the bak-
ing qualities of "Red Fife" and this
has finally been accomplished.
Devils Lake journal: As the re-
turns from the thrashing-machines
come in, it is apparent that the
greatest foe Of the farmer at this
time is the wildcats nuisance. In
some-localit,es the wildcats are SO
thick that wheat is docked so per
cent, while there is scarcely any
that escapes dockage Of less than
three to five pounds per bushel. One
farmer who brought a load of wheat
to market last week was docked
thirty-two bushels, or half his load.
1t cost him as much to thrash and
harvest the wild oats as it did to
thrash and harvest his wheat. In
other words, he paid double price
for thrashing his wheat. He is able
to market but half load at a time,
and he finds that the expense of
growing his crop is just double what
! it should be. So serious has become
the situation that farmers have be-
come thoroughly aroused, and are
seeking information as to the most
effective way Of stamping out the
pest.

finished this week. Mems singles and
consolation singles were played at
the morning meet; various other

It seems now that the fight for the

E. V. Carter, Jr., and B NJ, Grant.
One of these men will have the OPP

VT7HEN the Atlanta Motordrome
wv is thrown open Saturday night
for another evening of racing
by electric light, the now historic duel
between Jock Mcneil and his J. A. P
motor and Tex" Richards and his
Indian will be resumed. They had
another tilt last night, before a really
brilliant audience that Circled the
quarter-mile track four deep, but it
wasn't conclusive.
Jocks motor, which seems to be as
delicate as it is fast, threw a charley
boss in the final heat of the Georgia
Sweepstakes, and Richards romped
home a winner
In the Motordrome Purse Mcneil
was forced to ride on a borrowed ma
chine. Saturday night he and Rich
ards win settle down 10 it in earnest
to determine the best man at the
track.
Richards a Big Winner.
Richards swept il clean Tuesday
night in a series of races that KEEP
the nerves Of a huge audience attn
gle and stirred their enthusiasm to a
pitch that has not been reached here
in the memory of the modern speed
fan.
In the Sweepstakes he won a quail
flying heat from Renel and Shields
In the finals he met Renel, Lockner
and Mcneil and won by a comforta-
bic margin, though it was a thrilling
contest. In the Motordome Purse
Mcneil Con a borrowed machine) and
Lockner thrashed it out with Rich
ards, and though they pressed him
close and made him ride the four
miles in 1904 2-5, they could not over
haul him.
In the special match race Renel de-
feated Harry Glenn, who in turn beat
Luther. This race created vast en-
thusiasm.
Real Society Affair.
Altogether, the meet was a grand
success and established motOrdrome
racing in Atlanta on the firmest sort
Of basis. The very highest class of
amusement lovers patronized the af-
fair, and there hasn't been such a
gathering of automobiles since Speed
way days as was packed in around
the motordrome Tuesday night.
Night racing is amazingly spectac-
ular. The lights, the music. the hum
of the motors, the pound of the tires
on the board track, the swish of the
wind as the drivers tear by, the bril-
liant audience, the cheering and ap-
plauding. and on the steep board
track the neck risking, blood stirring
contests between expert riders trav-
cling at a speed so great as to be
uncanny.
There is small wonder that motor
drome racing is sweeping the country
as no sport has swept il in very many

up over it than it has been over any

HIGH AN On c
158-POUNDERS
By Sol Pick.

Jimmy Clabby. gentleman. is very
much in that race for the middle
weight championship this morning. So
is Jack Dillon. Only a few months
ago few Of the critics could see any
body except that Well-known trio
Papke, Klaus and MCGOOrty. since
then Papke has lost on foul "a
Klaus. Klaus has been whaled by
Dillon, though not in decision con-
test, and McGoorty, recently dropped
a decision to Clabby In twelve rounds
al Butte
The reports received on the Butte
affair puzzled fans somewhat. A study
Of the rounds fails to show where
Clabby was entitled TO the verdict,
but II NAV be that the referee knew
more about what was going on In
that arena than did the correspond
ents McGoorty scored two crashing
knockdoWns In the opening round. He
must have got an awful mauling after
that to make the decision a just one.
Two clean upsets win Offset a lot Of
points scored in other ways in a
twelve round set-tO Clabby did not
floor Eddie in any round.
CIabby Deserves Credit.
But no credit must be taken from tho
Hammond flash. He proved his game
ness and class beyond a question
Jimmy weighed some seven pounds
less than his hard Uniting foe. Then
he took a pair Of awful wallops on
the chin came back, and made the
referee believe he deserved the shade.
That is certainly going some.
McGoorty is the big puzzle Of the
middleweight division. As a first
round fighter he possibly is even bet
ter than was Stanley Ketchel But
# he connects with his famous left
hook in the opening period and fails
10 stop his man, he invariably ex-
plodes. Dave Smith and Jack Har-
rison sat down for him after the first

when the latter was ancient. II was
IN the first round, too. and Hugo sat
down. But he got up and the rest
of the way had Eddie missing often
McGoorty lacks something In the fin
ishing line. He can upset them, but
he seldom stops them, even when they
are helpless. Surely he ought to have
beaten Clabby in Butte. Jim weighed
but l5l and from all accounts was
saved by the bell ending the first
round, Yet he came right back and
got an even break in the second ses-
sion.
Middles Promise Action.
Jack Dillon has been trying to sign

he went North that he was willing

many notches in the scramble by his
win over McGoorty and with this new
confidence will have TO be considered
right up In the running henceforth.
Frank Klaus IS itching TO wipe out
that Indianapolis defeat at Dillon's
hands.
So there is prospect Of plenty of ac-
ton among the middles. The only
trouble is that they don't travel far

JOHNSON TOWERS
ABOVE TWIRLERS
IN THE AMERICAN

Walter Johnson, holder of this year s
record for consecutive wins, towers high
above the pitchers of both the National
and American leagues. The Giant Swede
has such secure hold on the topmost
pinnacle as result of his two long win
ming streaks that it is probable that he
will top the pitchers of his league and or
the parent organization for the entire
season.
Johnson has humbled opposing teams 20
times while he himself has been forced
to acknowledge defeat only five times.
Houck of the high flying Athletics is a
distant second to the speedy Senator with
II victories and four defeats, while sensa-
tional young Joe Boehling ranks third
with 13 wins and five defeats. OF the 10
leading hurlers, three are Athletics. three
are Maps, two are Senators, while the
remaining two are on the payrolls of the
Red Sox and White Sox.
