Seventeen stacks of oats, rep
resenting the harvestfrom about
100 acres, on the ranch of Tom
Connolly, a short distance east
OF town. burned to the ground
Tuesday. The fire must have
started early in the morning, as
1t w under good Roadway
when discovered by the Pat
Connolly family, residing on the
ranch. The origin of the fire
is not known. Although Mr..
Connolly carried insurance to
the amount of $1,000, his loss
will be heavy, as the crop was
a good one. He intended thresh-

oats market is generally tn E

A member of the local school
board has asked the Pioneer
Press to urge all parents having
pupils in the local school to CO.
operate with board and teachers
In assuring more regular attend
ance. This member states that
many of the pupils are not req

is not only detrimental to the
esprit de corps" in the school
room but, in brief, does t
make for the most successful
administration of same. Parents
are reminded that there is a law
requiring regular attendance
and unless there is good reason
for pupils being absent this law
is apt to be invoked in the, fu-

ing sections in the vicinity of
Cut Bank. Generally speak
ing, it begins about 10 miles
north of Cut Bank and IL
cludes all the country to the
Canadian Line. 1t derives
its name from Headlight
Butte, a point which can be
seen for many miles, 1t has
long been a landmark of the
sheepmen and cattleme n.
Residents of Cut Bank are
we'll acquainted with the old
butte.
Nearly all the residents Of
this community have lived
here for three years or long
.
er. Many of them had very
little land ready for crop in
1913, and 1914 being a dry
year, made it seem very hard
but they persevered and this
year were doubly repaid for
their work.
There were some very fine
crops raised in the Headlight
district this year. An ex-
ceptionally good crop was
that of N. l.. Dixie, near
Hay Lake. His Blueste m
wheat yield was 800 bushels
from 6 acres, or 81 bushels
per acre. Mr.. Oikle's fax
averaged Is bushels per acre,
although the fax crop of
Robert Davis surpassed it,
yielding nearly 80 bushels to
the acre.
Some other very good
crops worth mention were as
follows: On the farm of A.
Langabeer t h e Macaroni
wheat yielded 48 bushels per
acre, the Marquis 46 and the
oats 81 bushels. c.. Hume's
crop of oats made a fine
yield of 50 bushels per acre.
The Macaroni wheat of F.
Pierce threshed out at the
rate of AZ bushels per acre
but the remainder Of the 60
acres brought the average
to As bushels.
The fax crop of l.. L..
averaged IS bushels
per acre, and a crop of wheat
Of G. E. Cleland's yielded
about D bushels an acre on a
piece of land that was sowed
last year and was allowed to
volunteer without any work
being done on the piece this
year. A field of Red Fife
on the Bailey ranch
an average of SO BUSH
Els per acre.
A great many new gram
were built this year and
next year we expect to see
'ome larger and better ones
erected. Some of the farm
ers intend to build farm ele-
gators, fully equipped with
machinery, etc. There is
one fine elevator in this sec
now, on the farm of
Lewis.
Although $ 0 m e of the
other sections around Cut
Bank raised some crops a lit
lie better, the Headlight
will not take a back
eat from anybody, for they
re a good class of hard
and thew will show

BOUGHTON'S CASE MAY
BE TAKEN INTO COURT
Jersey Official Quits A. A. L.
Because Boy Is Ruled
a Professional.

Leroy Fales. Essex county, New
Jersey, commissioner to the Met
ropoltan Association OF the A. A.
l.. mailed his resignation to Fred
erick W. Ruben yesterday as an
aftermath to the decision of the
registration committee which declared
Charles NJ. Boughton, the Central High
School OF Newark schoolboy, a profess
sional on last Wednesday. Fales de-
clares that he had made a thorough in
vestigation OF tho case and that the
branding OF the schoolboy a professional
was gross injustice. He declares that
Boughton did not commit the offence
with the knowledge that he was trans
crossing the laws of the Amateur Ath
letic Union. and the worst penalty that
could be melted out was a reprimand
or a short suspension.
The Jersey commissioner intends to
take the case to the national registra-
ton committee and II the metropolitan
registration committee decision is not
reversed he intends to take the case be-
fore a court of New Jersey.
