The Round House Base Ball team
now claims the city championship as
they rank the highest at present. The
only team that tied up series with
them was the Courier and last week
both teams had won two and lost two
and were to play the deciding game
on Saturday afternoon at 5 p. m. The
round house was on the field and in
good sweat for the game at the stat
ed time, but for some unknown rea-
son the Courier failed to put in an
appearance. The Captain, Karl Pet
erson, would not show up himself, but
sent his assistant, Jimmy Callahan,
formerly of the White Sox, to the field
with a lot of Alibi Ike stuff. The
dope went something like this:-"Our
star pitcher, Fink Fischl, has left for
the Bushes, second string pitcher Jo-
seph Hooking is out Joy riding, Hal
Pagan, catcher, is out of the game
with a bum ankle, received in last
game by being spiked by Shoes.

Lou Bretzke attending a stock yard
meeting in Chicago (probably to get
some more dope to use in the next

to pitch with bunch of scrubs. James

INTEREST IN CORN SHOW
Northwestern Corn Growers Urge,
to Enter Contest.

Northwestern Corn Growers Urged
to Enter Contest.
The First National Corn Show to be
held at St. Paul, December to 81
1915, under the auspices of the First
National Bank and Northwestern
Trust Company Of St. Paul and bank
ers of the Northwest, has clear field
to attract the undivided attention of
growers of corn, the nations great
est wealth, producing crop, from
coast to coast, this year. While COM
petition at the show will be limited
to entries from the Northwestern
states, interest in the project will be
national, due to the fact that no other
large corn show will be staged dur
ing 1915. In past years, the Nation
al Corn Show, open to all states, have
been the biggest agricultural events
of the years.
The promoters of the First National
Corn Show have prepared to take ev-
cry advantage of this fact, realizing
the exceptional opportunity Of direct
| ing the attention Of corn growers
throughout the United States to the
splendid resources of the Northwest
for the production of this and kindred
crops in connection with the grow
ing of livestock.
The First National Corn Show, for
which entries will be received up to
Decembe r1st, will be an open COM
petition for Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, Montana, Washington,
Oregon and Idaho. There will be no
competition between states, each state
being divided into districts in such a
manner that corn growers may COM
pete with associates on an equitable
basis, so far as soil, climatic condi-
tions, etc.. are concerned. One hum
dred and twenty eight silver and
"Goldyn Bronze" loving cups valued
at $5OOO.OO will be awarded as prizes
at the show.
A distinctive feature of the First
National Corn Show will be the Boys
Corn Contest" open to entries by boy
corn growers throughout the North
west, eighteen years of age or under.
Boys submitting prize winning corn
will be awarded the same attractive
trophies as are offered the adult ex-
hibitor. Z
Farmers and farmers sons in the
Corn Contest territory are urged to
enter exhibits, not only from stand
point of competing for the intrinsic
value of the prizes offered and the
honors that go to the winners, but
also in a spirit of cooperation with
the Management, thus enabling them
to prepare display which will DEM
onstrate to the entire United States
the fact that corn can be, and is be-
ing successfully produced in every
county in the entire Northwest.
