HORTICULTURE
Chamber, Asks Aid in Carry
ing on Work of Horti-
culture Board.

In recognition of the effective work
being done among the orchardists and
farmers Ofathe state by the Montana
state board OF horticulture. the en-
ecutive committee of the Missoula
Chamber of Commerce yesterday
passed resolutions indorsing the work
done by the board. and asking the
state legislature to make sufficient ap-
preparations to allow the board to
carry on its work. Last year the
state appropriated $4,000 for the use
of the board of horticulture, but it is
said that the present legislature in
tends to cut out the work entirely by
refusing to appropriate any funds for
its maintenance.
In the resolutions passed by the ex-
ecutive committee Of the chamber of
commerce yesterday. that body cx-
PRESSES it's full belief in the efficiency

also sets forth the necessity of such an
organization and reviews the work
done by the board during the past
year.
The board of horticulture has main

out the state, preserving the orchards

vasions Of injurious insects and dis

also wagcd an unccasine fight against

Unless the present legislature makes
appropriations of funds for the use of
the state board of horticulture during
the present sessions. the executive
committee feels, the fruit industry, the
farming industry and the people Of the
state In general will lose very efficient
protection which is very much needed.

The only hindrancc 10 the usual

Stanley KetcheI and
Jack Johnson Victors
In May 9th Ring Battles

Many fistic encounters that stirred
the world of pugilism have taken
place on May 8. Philadelphia stag
ed one of the most exciting fistic con-
tests on this date in 1905 when two
bouts were fought successfully upon
the same stage. Jack Johnson being
the star attraction. The latter took
on Walter Johnson and in three of
the swiftest rounds ever seen in any
ring in that city won the victory with
clean knockout. Following this J.
took on Joe Jeanette and while it was
no decision affair the wise ones
gave the victory to j. johnson again.
19OS-This was indeed busy day
for the. recorder of things pugilistic
and a mighty interesting one. In San
francisco we see Stanley Ketche1 in
a. twenty round bout with Jack Twin
Sullivan. The men were very evenly
matched and for a long time it was
either mans battle. F'inllay in the
twentieth round Ketchel saw his
chance and knocked out his oppon-
emit. While this battle was in progress
sion the Pacific coast Sailor Burke
was doing his bit in New York in a
fistic encounter with Kid Griffo The
Sailor had easy sailing, defeating the
Kid after three rounds. Over in
they still had time and inclination to
pull off fighting stunts. The occa-
sion was the appearance of Willie
Lewis as the star performer in a very
mixed affair. He finished, in five
rounds, no less than three opponents,
one of them, Larry Conille, in one
round with a knockout. Bill Meekins
was accounted for after two rounds
and defeat overlook Jeff Thorne af-
ter the same number of rounds. Will
lie certainly was a hero that night.

we find, on May 9, Jack Britton in an
encounter with Johnny Mario in New
York city. Considering the man he
was going up against Mario stood the
fray pretty we'll It was a ten round
