IRON CHAMBERLAIN
Meets HIS WATERLOO,

The surpIis e of many months in
the line of sport was sprung here
Wednesday night when ii was learn
ed that Clearwater county has as a
citizen one of the greatest wrestlers
in the world. This man is J. r.
Crawford. champion of Iowa. the
home of great wrestlers. 1t is fur
ther claimed by people who declare
they know what they are talking
about, that there is only one man
now between Mr.. Crawford and the
middleweight championship. Be this
as 1t may. those who saw Mr.. Craw
ford make a monkey out of Iron"
Chamberlain in their match at the
Rex Wednesday night are now not
inclined to doubt 1t, for 1t is evident
that Mr.. Crawford is wonderful
wrestler
The match was made some weeks
ago when a party approached Iron
Chamberlain, the kendrick wrestler.
and told him rancher near Oroiino
had got 1t into his head he could
throw him. Chamberlaid jumped al
the chance. and came to Orofino in
complete ignorance of the fact that
the rancher happens to be one of the

is the first good yield from these
vines, and all because the owner
was shown" how to properly prune
and care for the vines. An Italian
from Elk River visited the orchard
a year ago and told Mr.. LaForrest
how to prune Ia grape vine. The
man was a professional, and the
change wrought is little short of ma
gic. In truth has he made two. four.

grapes on these vines, properly
trimmed, are not only greatly multi
piled, but also improved In size, and
next year will see an even greater
improvement, for the yield will be
double an increase possible for sew
eral years to come This Italian, who
learned to grow grapes in Italy, said
there was no reason why we could
not produce as fine grapes here as
anywhere in the world, and added:
IT have yet to see a single grape vine
around Orofino that has had half a
chance; people here do not under
stand how;to grow grapes, when they
learn how to prune the vines and to
care for them, Orofino grapes should
become noted for their splendid quail

of pleasure. and followed during the
winter months throughout the east
ern states among the top-notchers,
of which he stands just one man from
the Top. And he is trying to meet
this one man and contest for the
championship.
Chamberlain. one of the best west
ern wrcstlers. put up hard fight,
but could not do a thing with his
more scientific and much quicker OPP
ponent who had the Indian on the
defensive almost from the moment
time was called. Only once durins
the twenty minutes the men wrestled
did Chamberlain have Mr.. Crawford
in any sort of hold that gave him
chance to put Craw.ford's shoulders
to the mat, and then only for sec
ond, the expert Mr.. Crawford break
ing the hold like a fash. That was
the only time the Indian had any
chance to take the fall. Several
times Mr.. Crawford had the Indian
so near . fall that many thot he was
down, ard had Chamberlain con
stantly on the defensive. In twenty
minutes Crawford pinned the Indian
fat on his back on the mat. with
combination of holds that made It
impossible for the Indian wrestler
from the upper canyon town to do
better than wiggle his toes. That
was about all there was of Iron
Chamberlain that was sticking ont
E. w. Jewel, the referee, was slow in
calling the fall, and in fact, did not
call the fall until Chamberlain had
raised shoulder several inches from
the mat. The decision angered the
Indian, who exclaimed that all ne
wanted was square deal, and pro
tested that he was not getting it..
The crowd was generally apparently
satisfied that Mr.. Crawford had Won
fall, and Mr.. Chamberlain refused
to go on with the match, forfeiting
it to Crawford.
The general opinion here is that
the Indian realized that he was oit-
classed, and took the first excuse pre-
scented to save his hide as wrestler.

Mr.. Marl,sberry lifts the feathers of

she did not know. They were, she
explained, the first produced on the

apples are brilliantly colored, large
in size, and very sound and smooth
free from worms or other blight, and
are good to look upon. If the price
of lard comes down where we can
afford to make a crust we will test
these apples in pie. We do not

THAT is one Of the things we are
fighting for in this war; but civiliza-

effect that it is treason to say any
thing which will give aid or comfort
to the enemy. We want peace to
come speedily and the only thing to
do is to follow Grants strategy,
which is to locate the enemy and
strike him hard Peace must come

GOVERNMENT IS
PREPAR NOW
TO BUY GRAIN
Is Paying Cash for Wheat
Arriving On Minnea-
polls Market
MILLS ARE FIRST
CONSIDERATION
Will Interfere With Pres
ent Trade Relations As
Little As Possible
CBy Associated Press.>

Minneapolis, Sept. 4.-Frank l.
Carey, manager in Minneapolis for
the Food Administration Grain cor
poration, yesterday announced the
completion Of financial arrangements
with the Minneapolis banks by which
the corporation today will be prepar-
ed to begin the actual buying and
cash payment for wheat arriving in
the Minneapolis market.
Mr.. Carey, who was at his. office,
although the chamber of commerce
was closed for the holiday, also an
nounced the appointment of N, T..
Lindquist as cashier.
George p. Case, who is not a part
or Mr.. Carey's staff, but will spend
much time in the executive offices OF
the corporation, has been made
secretary Of the northwestern division
or the United States Food Adminis-
tration Millers' committee, of which
A. G. Loring is the chairman.
Six Districts Named by Lorina.
Mr.. Loring has divided the north
western division into six districts.
Charles G. Bovey, Minneapolis. will
represent the middle portion of
Minnesota, Benjamin Stockman of
Duluth, the northern portion and w.
L. Harvey of New Prague, southern
Minnesota and Iowa. James w.
Sherwood, Great Falls, Mont, will
represent Montana and Wyoming, H.
8. Helm Of Minneapolis. North Dako-
IA, and George r. Sexauer, Brook
ings. S. D. 4
Mr. Carey said yesterday he would
like to have it known over the north
west that the buying plan OF which
he -is the northwest directing leader,
is aimed to interfere as little as
possible with existing trade relation
ship and methods.
Disarrangina TO Be Avoided.
''We are going to try in every way
to disarrange things as little as
possible" he said "The first
consideration will be for the Minne-
apolis mills and the other northwest
mills and their supply, and with
stocks OF grain practically exhausted
in advance of the new crop move
ment. the wheat naturally will come
here. At such later time as. there
shall be a supply here, 1t win go to
Duluth or elsewhere. This is sea-
sonal movement and would operate
much that way, as it has in the past.
The effect OF the new plan on other
ICA AAA1Adtc viii UG 70 prevent QlNGTL@
ing grain from the channels closest
to actual food production by competi-
tive bidding
All operating, Carey Says.
"But the fact that Minneapolis is
to buy all the wheat does not mean
necessarily that all the wheat the
northwest has raised this year will
come to Minneapolis.
Although we were not prepared
Saturday as we are today, actually
TO buy and pay for the incoming
wheat, we took direction Saturday of
the distribution Of arrivals. There
was not enough to go around in the
S08 cars received here. We appor-
toned it and not a single complaint
has been received. Everybody has
shown disposition to cooperate to
the fullest extent with the new
PLAN"
