LEWIS
TO TACKLE OLIN

Chicago, April 9. John Olin and
Stranger Lewis have signed articles
for a match to be billed for the heavy
weight wrestling championship Of the
world. It will take place in the col.
iseum May 2. under the management
Of the Coliseum Athletic club. The ar
gument that the match is for the
worlds title is based on the fact that
Gotch has retired. that Olin holds a
referees decision over Joe Stecher
and the latter has refused to try II
again and that Lewis has drawn twice
with Stecher. once in two hours and
again in five hours OF wrestling.

Grain Review

Chicago, April s-Although wheat
prices jumped to new high records TO-
day, the market was characterized by
extreme brightness rather than strength
Sentiment was so uncertain and nerV'
Gus that fluctuations at n time
showed a range Of nearly s cents WITH
in as many minutes. Trading, though
evidently curtailed by calls for DIG
margins. was yet of considerable vol
ume, and there were periods Of extra
ordinary intensity. Advances In value
were apparently based in the main on
fresh reports Of unpromising crop con-
ditions in Kansas and Nebraska. Op-
ening prices. which ranged from Inc
off to hc up, with May at SALON. to !.i2
and July at s1.s7 to 1854; were fol-
lowed by a swift general upturn to 1.lb
for May and 1.sl for July, and then
a sudden setback, followed by q sue
cession of wild changes, inside tho Inn

Austria's break with the United
States was followed by sharp declines
which. however, was generally al.
the wearing off Of the effect OF the gov
eminent crop report. The break in
some cases amounted to more then &c
from Saturdays closing. Announce
ment OF a huge decrease In the visible
supply total caused only transient raj
lies. On the other hand there was talk
OF a probable big increase of spring
seeding. The close was unsettled. &c

to S2.07, and July at $1.S4% to $l.s5.
Corn proved even more erratic than
wheat. Unusual scarcity Of offerings
however. gave the market for the most
part a tendency to soar. After opening
unchanged to INC higher; prices IN
some cases showed Jumps of nearly TO

HOUSE PLANS
TO KILL BALL
MAY SMASH GRIFFIN BILL WHICH
FAVoRS SPORTS ON
SUNDAY.

Cedar Rapids, April 9.-Unless the
Iowa house gets busy within the next
four days it is doubtful that the aggre-
cation Of Bunny ball tossers lined up
by Manager Collins and Belden Hill
will report in Cedar Rapids April II as
has been the plan for some time.
eeldcn Hill Returns Saturday.
President Hill returned Saturday
from Des Moines where he was called
in an effort to do missionary work
among the members of the house con-
corning the Griffin bill which. having
passed the senate would allow Sunday
baseball in Iowa once 1t could be got
ten through the other half of the leg
islature. Mr.. Hill does not feel espec-
tally optimistic over the outlook. He
declared that he talked with mem
bers of both senate and house and that
the latter were very outspoken in their
determination to kill the Griffin meas
ure once it returned before them. They
claim they have sixty votes which will
effectively squash the Sabbath pastim'
ing for nee and for all.
President Ford, who had gone home
to Fort Dodge, returned to Des Moines
Saturday and met Mr.. Hill in the cap
itol building. The league leader was
then headed for a conference with
Governor Harding and he could stop
with the local baseball ruler for but a
moment. Belden did not see Ford
again as he was forced to take an
early evening train to come back to
Cedar Rapids. Consequently he does
not know how the conference turned
out.
Tom Fairweather. owner Of the Des
| Moines Western league club. is not
half SO bothered over the outlook as
are$the C. A. directors. Fairweather
declares he will move his entire team
to another state once the Iowa solons
shut down on sport, and will spend the
season there. This is n thing that no
Central association club can do.
There Is no alternative in case the
Grimm bill balls. The league will have
to be given up.
It was limited to Mr.. Hill that the
measure would come before the house
next Thursday but no certainty OF &C
ton on that date was promised. Mem
bers of the house we're urged to speed
I'D legislation in order to relieve. n
way or another. the tension that grips
the entire league.

in securing the best possible crops and
the largest acreage. The United
States government, he said. Is already
at work upon the problem and that last
week a committee OF one hundred met
with Governor Harding and a number
OF United States experts at Des Moines
to talk over the situation. 1t is the
policy Of the government. the commit
tee was informed by these experts, not
to withdraw the producers Of food into
the armies until 1t actually becomes
imperative. The farmers must be
doubly e~fncient, he said, for crop fail.
ures are freely predicted all over the
world.
J. w. Coverdale. who al largely in.
strumental in organizing and getting
the farm bureau started, spoke upon
the great crop shortages which he
thinks will come this year. He said
that the world will be lacking In meat.
grain and vegetable root crops. and
that Iowa. as the greatest agricultural
state in the union. must help to make
up the deficiency.
The state Of Iowa, according to Mr..
Coyerdale. raises I 1000. 900 hogs every
wear. but he said that this could easily
be increased by 5000. 900. There are
in wapello county 4 1000 hogs raised
yearly: 10000. 900 fowls raised yearly
in the state and $4,000 in Wapello
county each year. furnishing $4,000
dozen eggs. at a value Of $171 900. Al.
though Wapello county Is not greatly
given to dairying. the value Of Its prod.
ucts is $424,000 annually and while
1t ranks low among the vegetable
growing counties, the value OF the veg
etables sold Is S12,678.
Although these figures sound very
large, Mr.. C%overdale Is Of the opinion
that they could very easily be increas.
ed II efficient methods were followed.
Mr.. Coverdale also devoted some
time to the shortage of labor. In the
event of wal Mr.. C%overdale says that
farm help will be absolutely impossible
to get, and that many farms will lie
idle because there Is no one to run
them. In this emergency. he asks the
younger boys and girls who annot 90
to war to help and he says that there
are % 1000 retired farmers living in
Iowa who might volunteer their ser
vices to help and advise with the crops.
No man could do greater service for
his country. Mr.. Coverdale thought.
He asked the farmers especially to CO.
operate with the bureau and said that
in this way the greatest efficiency
could be secured.
Superintendent Scott Of the farm
bureau was next introduced to the
members. He thanked them for their
generous reception and said that he
wished to help in any way possible. He
was optimistic as to the outlook for
the bureau and prophesied that the
venture would be successful.
