POPLAR MEETS

Locals Trim Reservation Boys
By Score of 13 to 2.
HEAVY HITTING FEATURES
Local ClOuters Land on Fast Indian
Pitcher, Means, For Total Of
Twelve Safe Bingles.

Heavy hitting and a comedy Of
errors marked the game between
Glasgow and Poplar on the local
grounds last Sunday afternoon. The
game started out with promise OF
being hard fought to the finish when
Poplar annexed one in their half Of
the second inning and Glasgow chas-
ed two scores across home plate in
their half Of the same inning. Glas-
gov secured another run in the third
as did Poplar and the score stood 8
to in favor Of the locals until the
sixth when the balloon went up. In
this inning Glasgow connected with
the Poplar pitcher for seven safe
bjngles and chased in eight runs be-
fore the smoke cleared away.
From then on interest waned and
the game closed with the score stand
ing 13 to in favor Of Glasgow.
The locals connected for total Of
twelve safe bingles off the much tout
ed Indian pitcher Means, who finished
the game here looking as though ne
had been through three days bonn
bardment in the Verdun trenches.
Spaulding pitched a good consis-
tent game holding the Poplar team to
six hits badly scattered. Both teams
lcomed up big in the error column,
which partly accounts for the heavy
score.

to leave when the order came to en-

every man went about his duties with
the earnestness and alacrity Of a

The business or professional posi-
ton of a member counted for moth

heir duty to respond. Several bust
ness firms in the city were crippled
by having their men leave without ar
opportunity to get business affairs il
shape, but orders were orders and ev,
e<'y member of the company was put
under military supervision.
The first order received instructed
the officers to accept only men who
had seen service, but this order was
countermandcd the next day and al
men of military age, who could pass
the medical examination were taker
in. Recruits began to come in with

WILL LOOK FOR
OIL PROSPECTS

GeolOgist Will Survey County With
View to Locating Coal and Oil.
A party headed by Mr.. H. A. Col
lier, of the United States Geological
Department at Washington, D. c., ar
rived in Glasgow on Monday and fitted
up an outfit to make a survey of
Valley County. Mr.. Collier will start
work at the Northeastern corner of
the County and work across to the
Phillips County line, then south to
the Missouri river and from there
east to the Sheridan county line.
The purpose of the geological sur
vey will be to locate and designate any
coal veins which may exist in the
County, with a description of the
quantity and quality of it, and to
ascertain the relative cost of produc-
ton. If coal in sufficient quantities
for commercial purposes is located, the
land will be withdrawn and held for
the development of the coal fields.
Attention will also be given by Mr..
Collier to the possibilities of oil de-
posits, existing in Valley County, and
the indicated gas regions will be
thoroughly gone into with the inten-
ton of making map of the possible
gas and oil districts, and whether or
not there exists conditions favorable
to a large oil disposit in this section
of the state.
Mr.. Collier in an interview spoke
favorable of the feasibility of Valley
County producing gas and oil. He
stated the United States Geological
Department has known for a long
time that indications found in well
drilling throughout the County were
typical Of oil bearing stratas. While
in the district just north Of the reser-
vation recently. Mr.. Collier inspected
a we'll sunk near Avondale, and found
teeth of the three-toed horse, taker
from the well, and also the leg bone
of a camel, which had been brought
up from a considerable depth. These
were deposited in a formation of thu
Salt water period, and indicate a stra
ia of gravel similar to that found ir
many sections where oil and gas ha:
been produced.
The work Mr.. Collier is engaged
in will occupy his time for the entir'
summer. Upon his return to Wash
ington he will compile complete re
port from his field notes taken. Thi
report will be published by the De
partment and can be secured by any
one desiring it.

COUNTY FAIR IT,
BE A HUMMER
Big Program of Racing and
Entertainments.
FINE PREMIUMS OFFERED
Every Farmer in Valley County Has
Chance to Win Valuable Premium
at Fair This Fall.

Valley County will have a fair in
September which will be so much bet
ter than any Of those previously held
as to entirely outclass them.
Glasgow business men have come
forward most literally with special
premiums of exceptionally high VAL
ue. A much greater incentive for
the farmer to pay more attention to
the products of his farm is thus cre-
ated,' there is every indication that
the competition will be keen among
them. -
The fair buildings and grounds are
now being put in shape for the fair
with additional space being provided
for the big exhibits expected and the
amusement events that are always
staged. The big attraction of the
fair in the way of entertainment at
the grounds this year will be "Rollo
The Limit" who is styled the "Death
Defer" Twice each day Rollo will
thrill those in attendance with his re-
markable feat consisting of shooting
down a seventy foot incline on roller
skates, turning loop in mid air,
over a twenty-five foot space, landing
on his feet upon a platform placed
opposite the incline.
Rollo has performed this daring
leap at the State Fair in Minnesota,
Dakotas, Kansas, Nebraska, Illinois
and Ohio, and at Mardi Graus and
local fairs throughout the East. This
is the first time he has shown in Mon
tana and the Fair Association is pay
ing high price to offer this thriller
to the visitors of the Fair.
For the special amusement of the
children as we'll as the grown ups,
the Fair Association has signed the
Ranzo and Arno Trio, who put on an
act of oddities. These are eccentric
comedy stars who are here for the
summer, having come from the Com
ide Francis at Paris. This work is
full of laughter from the start to fin.
ish, without the slap-stick or vulgar
features found in the work of their
imitators.
One feature of this work and line
of fun that furnishes exceptionally
laughable situations is the trained
zebra. This exhibition consumes
about ten minutes, and is guaranteed
to remove the most obstinate fit o1
crouch.
The racing program will be ever
better than last year with large
entry of fast horses, big purses, ane
plenty of speed. The track at tn
Fair Grounds is being put in fine con
dition and the speed events will b
worth going long way to see. Their
will be motorcycle races every da!
and it is possible that novelty il
auto racing will be offered which will
be amusing as well as exciting.
Everybody will go to the Vale
County Fair this year, the farmer
all express intentions of having big
ger exhibits than ever before, the en-
tertainment for them will excel an
other year and everybody else in tn
County will be there to participate il
the Farmers Picnic.
