COUNTY live
STOCK BREEDERS
HAVE ANNUAL MEETING At
BALDWIN FARMS
Old Officers Reelected with Exception
Of Secretary WHO Resigned

The annual meeting of the Dickey
County Live Stock Breeders Associa-
tion was held last Thursday at the
Baldwin Farms. About forty of the
breeders of pure breed stock from all
parts of the county gathered at Bald
win Ranch No. 2 at 10 a. m. From this
time until noon the time of the visitors
was spent in looking the buildings and
stock on the farm and in exchanging
experiences with one another.
At noon the crowd was served with
an excellent dinner as the guests of the
Baldwin Estate. At $50 the business
meeting of the Association was held.
Talks were given by Manager Hoke Of
the Baldwin farms and by County
Agent Richards. Mr.. Hoke discussed
the feeding and raising of pure bred
cattle laying special emphasis on the
methods that are practiced on the
Baldwin farms. Mr.. Richards spoke of
the objects of the Association and
what could be accomplished by the
members through associating them
selves together in this way. He stated
that meetings of the kind being parti-
cipated in that day would accomplish
great good for the members, as it gave
them an opportunity to see the stock of
others and how it was cared for. The
members would also gain much en-
thusiasm from the gatherings.
Among other things discussed at the
meeting was the new ruling of the
Live Stock Sanitary Board requiring
that all pure bred stock unless coming
from a Federal or State Accredited
herd when shipped into the state must
be kept in quarantine 60 days and be
tested under supervision of the Sani-
tary Board for tuberculosis. This is n
very rigid requirement and did not
meet with approval of all the men,
bers.
All the officers were reelected with
the exception of the secretary who ask
ed to be relieved of the work of the
office for the coming year. County
Agent Richards consented to accept
and was accordingly elected. The
officers and directors elected consist Of
the following: John G. Nelson, Presi-
dent, Fullerton; Clark Pierce Glendale.
Vice President; Directors, Nels Knut-
son, Fullerton, N. j. Nelson, Oakes. ].
r. Morrow Glendale, and j. c. Frand-
sen, Oakes.

SCALE OF HARVEST
WAGES FROM l.W.W.
FIXED At $ee TO s144 A MONTH
WITH BOARD
Agreement With Nonpartisan Leaque
Said to Exceed All Previous
Demands

Minneapolis, July 10-The grain crop
now growing in North Dakota will
likely be harvested at an unprecedent-
ed cost for labor. According to
report received in Minneapolis last
night that the Nonpartisan league
and the Industrial Workers of the
World have agreed, on a wage scale
for harvest hands.
Rates of pay said to have been
agreed on range from $96 to $144 a
month with board, for ten hours
working day. The minimum rate as
reported is 81 day for a ten hour day
and 40 cents an hour for overtime.
But the schedule, as reported, provides
for sliding scale, according to the
price of wheat, wages to he $3.50 for
10 hour day if wheat sells at $1.75
a bushel, IS a day if at 50 bushel,
$3.50 day if at s2.25 and Sc day if
at $3.50.
Fix Price for Overtime
The rate for overtime, fixed at 40c.
an hour for minimum, keeps pace with
the rising wage scale.
Provision, accompanying the wage
schedule and said also to have been
Jointly agreed upon, makes it incum-
bent upon the employing farmer to feed
the crew free for three days, in case of
interference with the work by rain or
other causes, the men thereafter to pay
81 day if such interference continues.
The 10 hour schedule is set to mean
10 hours in the field. Teamsters caring
for teams are not to charge for that
time. Temporary stops of Is minutes
of threshing machine are not to be
deducted from time, and moves from
place to place. are not to be deducted,
except where move requires an hour

as promising young infielder who had
been burning up college diamonds. AL
tho Lombard College doesn't just ex-
actly boast of course In baseball. that
must have been what George took be-
cause he has been at 1T ever since.
He got away to good start here
and reserve contract brought him
back In 1904. Then he became q Ak
ture until 1906. when he went to the
Peoria club. In 1907 and 1908 ne was
with Springfield and II was Springfield
that won the Three-I pennant in 1908
by this time George had developed
into a polished second sacker and he
went into higher company. TO the
Wichita club of the. Western league.
Before he went west he married Miss
Birdene LIE Van. a Dubuque girl. He
played at the keystone bag for Wichita
IN 1909. 1910 and 1911 and was 50 pop
ular with the fans out there that he
was rendered the management OF the
club In 1912. He held the managerial
relns for two years. goingsto the Grand
Rapids club OF the Central league as
manager in 1914. Under his leadership
Grand Rapids finished the season in
third place, but several games behind
the winning club.
In 1915 Hughes returned to his first
love. the Three-1 league, as manager OF
the Moline club. In order to put the
right polish on his come back he won
the pennant for the Moline fans and
became the hero OF the hour He man
aged Moline last season. obtaining his
release there but few weeks ago.
There are a mighty few men who
have been playing baseball for fifteen
years and George Hughes Is one Of the
number. He is going to play second
base for Dubuque this season and the
chances are he will show up lot OF
fellows who think they have been bver

that isn't all-George Is going to give

Review Of Sports
and Athletic News

by Manager Hughes look like the real
goods In the first place, it must be
remembered that Hughes is no lemon
himself as player. With the burdens
OF managing team on his shoulders,
he succeeded in fielding for an aver
age Of .956 in III games in the Three-t
League last season. He was working
at second base. Hughes pounded the
ball for neat average Of .27l, He
should he able to do considerably bet
ter than that in the Central associa-
ton. Hughes Moline team finished
fifth in the Three-I league last year
but in 1915 he pulled his club thru to
the championship Of the old Three-T
Goshorn, the pitcher secured by
Hughes from the Grand Rapids team
last season promises to be a star In
this company He made record at
Grand Rapids last year that no hurler
would be ashamed OF. He was with
the club but a short time and won
eleven and lost four. In nineteen
pitcher he didn't do so badly at bat,
for in that department he hung up an
average of 1872.
Davis is the only one OF three
Wichita pitchers picked up by Man
ager Hughes who has record for 1915
that holds forth much promise OF
great things here, Wichita was bot
tom-rung team of the Western League
last year and things went from bad to
worse for the club during the pennant
chase. Pitching under trying condi-
tons. Davis won eleven games and
lost thirteen. Griffin pitched nineteen
fun games. pulling four OF them out Of
the fire, while Hunt won but two Of
fourteen contests.
Manager Hughes believes that two
of the three Western league twirlers
will show the required stun to win
berths here.
