YAK IS VERY USEFUL ANIMAL AND WILL BE
 PRACTICAL BENEFIT
Something Concerning the Animals Which Will Be Imported Into the Alaskan Country
 In Near Future

Recently The Empire in an inter view with Prof. Georgeson told about arrangements having been made by him with the Canadian government for the importation of Yaks from Canada, a herd to be established at the experimental station at Fair banks, and other animals to be cross bred with the Galloway cattle at the Kokiad experimental station. The animals were originally shipped from Thibet.
 Yak is the native name of the wild OK of the mountainous regions of Thibet The yak is about the size of the common OK, to which it has a general resemblance. but il is GOV cred with a thick coat of long, silky hair, hanging down like the fleece of a sheep, completely investing the tall and forming lengthy fringe along the shoulders, Hanks and thigh. This fringe was apparently developed as. a protection to the animal in its Alpine haunts. as the hair forms -sOrt Oi mat WHICH uetehus lhe buiy from the effects of the cold when the animal is reposing in the snSw.
 The domestcated yak is of great importance to the natives of Thibet, where it is employed as beast of burden, but never for tillage or draught. The milk oi the yak is very rich and yields excellent but tet; the flesh is of the finest quality, that of the calves being far superior to ordinary veal.
 The hair is spun into ropes and made into coverings for tents, and the soft fur of the hump and withes is woven into fine strong cloth.

THIS is COMEBACK YEAR
FOR OLDTlMERS IN A. A.

This is the year of "comebacks" for
former major league base ball play
ers Several men who won fame in
years past entered the American as
sociation and have been going the
distance. They. include Ed Walsh and
Roy Patterson. both great pitchers
for the White Sox in the old days.
Big Ed Walsh, idol of thousands
of fans. now Is with the Milwaukee
club. which Is In charge of Clarence
Sox. Rowland expressed confidence
that Walsh. was not through. and
gave him a chance to stage his
comeback" against st. Paul. Walsh
moved down the hard-hitting Saints
with ease. A few days later Walsh
went against the Kansas City club
and won "a to 3. Now the fans are
pulling for him to take his regular
turn.
Roy Patterson insisted he was "as
good as ever" when Joe Cantillon told
him he was going to use him as
coach. Pat" said IL he couldn't be a
regular he wouldn't sign. The con-
tract was signed and Patterson pitch
kee He went the entire distance and
his team won.
Charley Hall, another former hero
of the big show, is going good for
st. Paul At one time he starred for
the Red Sox. Two years ago Manager
Mike Kelley sent him to the Pacific
Coast league. The wafm western sun
seemed to instill new fight in Hall,
and this year he came back to St
Paul and has been doing his share In
the Saints fight for premier honors.

count the well-meaning efforts of
some hard-working hurler. Sunday
was one of those days. an assortment
of half dozen hand-picked and mar
ket-graded miscues cropping up to
spoil an otherwise pleasant afternoon
for 10000 cash customers and several
odd hundred thin dime patrons. By
giving aid and comfort to the enemy
in this manner the Tigers were per-
mitted to record an SIS win, even up
the series and drive the iron of de-
spair deeper into Ayers heart. With
exemplary compartment af1eld the
Griffs would have copped by a COM
Portable margin. as all but one of the
Jungaleers' tallies were tainted,
whereas three of the quintet COM
piled by the locals were simon pure.
Ayers is entitled to only a feeble

bracing Milan. Murphy, Shanks and

TOLEDO, Ohio. June 16.-Jack
Dempsey will not do any serious
training for his heavyweight cham
pionship contest with Jess Willard
here. July 4, until next Saturday or
Sunday. This was definitely decided
upon by Manager Jack Kearns today
after physicians had advised him that
any rough work with the gloves
would likely result In reopening the
wound over Dempsey's eye.
Kearns decided not to risk this dan
ger. as the wound, IL reopened. prob
ably would not be thoroughly, healed
when Dempsey climbs into fhe ring
to face Willard, and the chapion, 1t
was feared, would likely concentrate
his attack on the injury, which would
easily impair the challenger's vision.
The terrific heat of the last few
days, however, was as much respon-
sible for the decision to continue
Dempsey's lay off as the unhe aled
wound For three days Toledo has
sweltered and even Willard has tenn
porarily abolished his road work for
fear of losing weight too rapidly. The
champion tipped the scales at only
