Many Valuable. Awards for Exhibits
at Annual Show.
The time has arrived for farmers
in Valley County to plan their exhi-
bits for the County Fair, to be held
in Glasgow, September 7-8-9. The
premium list when completed will con-
tain many valuable special awards Of
fered by business houses of Glasgow

Special attention is given also to
the educational department, and it has

GLASGOW WINS
FROM POPLAR
Locals Won Game in One Inning
With Four Runs.
MEANS FANS SEVENTEEN
Indian Pitches in Fine Shape. Spauld-
ing Held Opponents to Three
Hits.

Glasgow won, and Poplar lost. And
the tragedy all occurred in the fatal
third inning when the local Cobbs and
Speakers landed on the ball for total
of four runs, all they secured during
the entire game, but yet enough to
win by safe margin.
Sundays game between the locals
and Poplar was the first real test
of the caliber of the home team. True,
the Trainmen and Nashua had been
vanquished, but in Means, the Indian
pitcher for Poplar, the aspirants for
batting honors were given a severe
set back.
When it comes to ball team, Poplar
has Means. And the big Indian was
the whole show Sunday. Seventeen
Glasgow batsmen went down by the
strikeout route and many Of them took
three healthys without even locating
the vicinity of the pill. Means had
everything, and he used it to good ad-
vantage, but despite his big number
of strikeouts, seven hits were made
the locals.
For Glasgow, Jack Spaulding did
the mound work and never during the
game was he in any real danger
Nine Poplarites fell victims to his
puzzling offerings and only three
managed to connect for safeties. Jack
was never forced to exert himself and
in almost every inning the opposing
batters went down in one, two.
three order.

WILL FURNISH
BEET SEED
Farmers May Obtain Free Sugar
Beet Seed Here.
COOPERATION is URGED
Successful Growth and Tests will
Hasten Coming of Beet Factory.
Time to Act Now.

The Commercial Club still has a
considerable amount Of sugar beet
seed on hand which it desires to place
with farmers in the irrigated district
along the Milk river. Letters have
been sent out to farmers, as well as
notices having appeared in all Of the
papers, stating that sugar beet seed
can be had free Of charge by calling
for it at the Office Of the club.
It is necessary that this seed be
sown within the next Is days in order
to insure satisfactory growth of the
beets to full maturity, and farmers
should be willing to grow the seed
in order to demonstrate that this is
desirable location for a sugar beet
factory. The increased value of Land
as result of sugar beet factory
being located in this section Of the
state should appeal to every farmer,
so that it should not be necessary
to be coaxed to assist in this work.
If this seed is not called for with
in the next few days it is planned by
the club to carry it out to the farm
ers and ask them to grow it.
The Commercial Club is doing ev-
erything within its power to develop
and increase the value of farm land
in the Glasgow territory and in order
to continue this work, a committee
will start out the first of the week
and distribute the seed that is left
to those farmers who are willing to
cooperate in helping to make their
own land more valuable.
Every farmer who has land in the
valley that will be under irrigation
should be willing to grow small
amount of sugar beets to prove that
his land is the kind of soil that will
make sugar beet factory possible.
The recent rains have put the soil
in first class condition for planting
sugar beet seed and every effort
should be made by the farmers to get
their share during the next week and
get it in the ground so that it can
take advantage Of the moisture.
