Wouldn't Go to the Feds; Now
Organized Baseball Cans Him

- Chicago, Jan. 4.-What will become
of kid" Gleason, coach of the White
Sox since 1912, now that he has been
given his unconditional release by
Clarence Rowland?
Recently the kid" has been favor
ably mentioned for the management of
several teams, including the White
Sox and Yankees of the American
league and the Brooklyn team Of the
Federal circuit. The job Of handling
the Yankees supposedly has been fiji
ed, and Lee Magee has been assigned
TO, pilot the Brookfeds. That pract:
cally filled all the managerial jobs out.
side the minor leagues.
Gleason's career in baseball has
been a long one, starting as a pitcher
and winding up as one of the best Sc.
cond basemen the game has known.
He ended his active service on the
diamond with the Philadelphia Ma.
tiona!s and before that was a valian.
member of the Detroit Tigers.
When he came to Chicago he had
been out Of the game for several sea.
sons, but had forgotten nothing about
it. His experience and knowledge
of the inside of baseball, together
with his we'll known ability to handle
players on or off the field, without bare
knuckles, fade him a valuable adjunct
to a baseball team, particularly if
composed of young and inexperienced
players.

ARE interested IN
SEED CORN EXHIBITS
Persons Not Having Corn for
Sale as Seed Cannot Win
Any Prizes.

Numerous inquiries have been re.
ceived 10y H. l.. Bolley, secretary-treas-
urer of the North Dakota Improved
Seed Growers association as to wheth-
er farmers may send two exhibits of
corn this year as in previous years,
one for the cor show and the other
for the Improved Seed Growers con.
tent.
The North Dakota Improved Seed
Growers contest is interested in corn
only from its seed producing value.
Persons who do not have corn for sale
as seed are not eligible to compete in
this contest for the purpose of win.
ming prizes. Any one can put q sam.
pie into the seed show to show what
he thinks he can produce in the fu-
ture and that sample will be graded
and scored to inform him as to the re-
suits but If he has not grown corn for
sale as seed in some reasonable guam
tity SO as to be able to tell how much
he has sold or the amount he has yet
for sale as seed he could not expect
to win a prize in the seed show.
Since the corr is for planting pur-
poses all samples which are intended
to he exhibited in the Improved Seed
Growers contest must come to the
pure seed laboratory on or before Jan.
9th, SO that they may be tested for
termination and examined with refer
ence to purity as to type. The pur-
pose Of this is evident. The men who
give the prizes give them with the

rewards Of THE
FARMER not Cash
Products of the Farm Figure
Largely in the Income of
the Farmer.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Rewards of a
farmer are measured in the products
his farm furnished him directly rather
than in dollars and cents, according
to the department of agriculture to-
day, in a statement on the results to.
an investigation concerning the farm.
ers' income. .". a.. "
The average farmer receives little
more money for his years work than
he would be paid if he hired himself
out as a farm hand, the investigation
shows. In other words, though he is
in business for himself, the average
farmer gets little or no money reward
for his labOrs and the risk and re.
sponsibility he has assumed.
The average value of the chief nee.
essities of life-food, fuel, oil, and
shelter-used each year by the farm
family was $595.0S. OF these necessi-
ties, estimated in money, the proper.
ton contributed directly by the farm
was $421.17, leaving necessities to the

1t is pointed out that Willard is IN
some ways the most formidable fight.

Physically he is the superior of any
of Johnson's .combatants. Willard is
a giant il size and powerfully mus
cled. Also, he is able to deliver a
punch that usually brings things to a
close if we'll placed.
Willard's style of fighting has been
patterned after Johnson's and this,
it is said, will further confuse Liz
Artha. He has never met a man who
employed his own tactics. Though
he has no great record of battles to
back him up, he has youth and en-
ergy, where Johnson has not this,
think Wizards managers, is another

1t seems as if the Jack Johnson.
Jess Willard fight, scheduled to take
place March II, will be in several
ways an interesting affair. From the
dope that has appeared regarding it
and its two participants there is ress.
son to believe that it will have con
siderable attention.
Reports latterly affirm that Jack
Johnson, though now the possessor Of
much bulk and girth, is still able to
step about in very agile fashion. The
portliness he has displayed within re
cent months is ascribed to a disre.
gard of training diet and an abandon
ment to rich food and wines. Oddly
enough, his speed has not suffered.
Though more. than plump, he can skip
around the ring almost as we'll as he
ever could. ~ J
This will give the fight fans added
interest. Many will attend merely

TO INVESTIGATE
ASSESSMENTS
THAT IS THE PURPOSE OF
CITIZENS MEETING CALL
ED FOR THURSDAY NIGHT
WILL Be An Open Meeting
All Interested in the Matter Are
Invited to Attend and Take
Part.

q The purpose Of the taxpayers meet
Ing to be held at the Commercial
Club hall the evening Of Thursday
January Z, is particularly to investi
gate the matter of special assessments
made in Bismarck during the pas
two OF three years. There has been
a great deal of complaint because
the assessments were so high. Ir
many cases it is alleged that the as
sessments are very much higher thar
the original estimates of the cost OF
the work, as made by the city engi
neer
Many property owners also claim
that streets have been graded by cut
ting and filling where the grade had
already been established. In some
cases it is alleged that If a man would
!protest enough the grade would be
changed to suit him. in some parts
of the city, where sidewalks have
been laid for 10 or II years, resi-.
dences built and property improved
on the grade as given by the man
who CHANGED at the time to be city
engineer, it is stated that recently
the street grade has been changed
and the work of years in improving
and beautifying these properties has
been destroyed and the owners have
had to begin all over again.
Built Sewer Unasked.
1t is said that there have been cases
where sidewalks have been put in
over the written protest of a major.
zity of the w1er affected, which is
said to Ibe contrary to the law. An
other case is mentioned where the
city built two blocks of 1--WE main
on a street where there are no houses
and no water main with which to
flush the sewer, and the sewer was
never asked for by the property own
ers or anyone else.
Good attorneys have stated that a
great deal of the special assessment
work Of the city has been illegally
done, in their opinions, and the as.
sessments, they claim, can easily be
knocked out. This is especially true
of some Of the street grading done
the past few years. -. .r''
In numerous cases the special as
sessments against certain lots have
meant the practical cO1fiscatiO1 of
the property. Thousands of yards of
dirt have been moved in the outskirts
OF the city, cuts and fills of 10 and
~, and more, feet have beens made
and the cost of the work has been
more than the value of the lots, at
least, those who are familiar with
values say so. And in many
where lots have not been practically
coaffscated to pay the assessments,
1t is said that they have at least been
ruined for either business or resi-
dence purposes. G&. ~, r. .a..'
All these matters, and probably
many more, will be gone into at this
meeting and discussed and an at
tempt will be made to see If some
thing cannot be done to correct any
evils which may have been done. 1t
will be an open meeting and every.
inc who is interested in these special
assessments is urged to be present.

value of $173.91 to be purchased by
the farmer.
OF the food consumed 63 per cent
was furnished by the farm, which var
led cosiderably in different sections
1t was greatest in North Carolina
where farms supplied 1928 per cent of
the food consumed, while the average
in New York was only 50.4.
In view of the present economic cri-
sis in the south, the department points
out, this fact is regarded as Of particu-
lar significapces since it demonstrates
the extent to which with a proper sys-
tenn of agriculture, southern farms
could be made seH.sustaining.

manner the growers will be bene.
fitted because they will be put in touch
with those who wish to buy and the
buyers will be benefited because they
will know where to find good corn.
This applies to any other kind of seed

to state whether you have any on
hand for sale. as seed and particular
ly how much you have already sold, as
these facts make clear your title to

worth more than the previous year.
Bismarck may be the banner town of
