= STATEMENT ISSUED BY
= SENATOR A. J. GRONNA.

| am deeply interested in
the movement of establish
ing an open market for farm
products. The question of
production has long since
been solved; that of distri-
button and marketing still
remains and the question is
of the utmost Importance.
When the American farm
er shall have established a
system that will enable him
to dispose of his products at
a reasonable profit instead of
a loss. then there will no
longer be any question about
an abundant production. But
the farmer like the manufac-
turer, must interest himself
in distribution if he is to sue
ceed.
The farmer should have
his own warehouses. should
own and operate all terminal
elevators. in order to dispose
of his products to the best
: advantage to himself and of
+; the consumer. He can do
this only through co-opera-
ton with other farmers.

Beach Loses
Close Game

The local sons of the swat our
neyed to Sidney, Mont, on Sun
day and tried their prowess with
the fast team representing that
city, and after a very strenuous
effort on their part were nosed
out of victory. The local prides
performed very we'll considering
the length of time the team has
been together and the short length
of time in which they have had to
get in practice. Canty was on
the firing line for the locals while
Despair did the mound work for
the Montanans. The locals got
off to a bad start, for during the
first two innings of play a scratch
or two, coupled with wild throw
and a couple of boots, occasioned
a donation of three runs to the
Sidney contingent. During the
rest of the game one of the runs
was earned while the fifth run was
made after bad throw and an
other boot had been chalked up
against the locals. The hitting of
Swat" Mulligan featured, for in
the final frame he nearly put the
game in the locals hands by a
two base crash to right field.
(Which scored one man and caus-
ed a very close play at home.
This was the play which brought
the game to close. Canty d; ;
fairly we'll keeping the hits pref
ty we'll scattered. Victor per
formed we'll at the second station
and contributed two of the seven
hits which the locals earnered off
the Sidney Hurler's delivery.

Three of our men were thrown
out at the plate, which in a
measure explains a little of the
bad luck on the bases.
The trip of two hundred mile:
in one day together with base
ball game made up a pretty siren
uous day for the locals.
1t was the generally expressed
opinion among the Sidney enthus.
lasts that the locals had not only
a good base ball team but a well
behaved bunch as we'll.
The trip was not marred by
any delays. Both of Joe Grein.

made tie trip in very good time.
The roads were in good condition
as well.
