Notes Of the Games.

NOteo OF the U0meS.
Several people motored down from
Wolf Point Sunday to see their team
get trimmed.
Besides pitching an excellent game
Dippold made triple, double and
single in four times at bat; not so
worse.
Hubbard is one of the best catchers
that have ever played on the local dia-
mond.
Prueitt pitched nice game Satur-
day and played a good game at second
Sunday.
The local rooters were out in full
force Sunday, especially the girls.
Wolf Point said we would be easy
"pickings"; wonder what they think
now?
Jim Aichele is the expert adviser for
the local team.
Several people were here from Pop
lar to see the games, and by the way
they all pulled for Glasgow it must be
that Poplar is not very fond of Wolf
Point.
Sundays attendance was nearly five
hundred persons and Saturdays over
two hundred.
Now that the boys have hit their
stride they are going right down the
line and trim them all.

gregati0n Sunday-Visitors Win
Saturday, 4 to 3.

The local team administered neat
coat of whitewash to the Wolf Point
team last Sunday afternoon in one of
the cleanest and best played games
of baseball that have been played on
the local diamond for number of
years.
Dippold, who twirled for Glasgow,
had the visitors at his mercy through
out the entire game and not a single
Wolf Point man reached third base.
Glasgow started in early to put the
game safely away and scored two runs
in the first inning and scored one more
in the sixth.
The game was greatly enjoyed by
about 500 spectators. Wolf Point de-
feated the local boys Saturday eve
ming by the score of to 3. Pruitt
pitched good game for Glasgow and
should have won his game, errors be-
ing responsible for most of Wolf
Points runs. King also pitched good
steady game for Wolf Point.

PROMINENT WOMAN
PASSES AWAY SATURDAY
Mrs. F. A. Riggin of Barr, Wife of
First Methodist Minister of Mon
tana, Dies at Local Hospital.

Mrs. F. A. Riggin, wife of Rev. F.
A. Riggin of Barr, died at the Deacon
ess hospital in this city Saturday
night, June 21st.
Mrs. Riggin was brought to the hos
pital about a week before her death
from the Riggin ranch home near
Barr, because of her weakening condi-
tion, so that she could have constant
care under the direction of her ply
sician, which could not be secured at
the ranch home so far from town. But
being in a very serious condition and
weakened from her trip from Barr to
Hinsdale in an auto, Mrs. Riggin did
not seem to be able to rally her
strength so as to combat her illness
and she quietly slept away from a
physical sleep to the repose that is

HEALTH OFFICER SAYS
BEWARE OF TYPHOID
Water Shortage in Montana Ushers in
Health Menace Says DR.. w. F.
COgswell.

Warning of typhoid as a possible
outcome Of the water shortage report
ed in many sections of Montana is
contained in a message sent to all city
and county health officers by DR.. W.
F. Cogswell, secretary of the state
board of health.
"There is no typhoid epidemic in the
state, and that is one reason why we
are taking these precautions" DR..
Cogswell said. eve intend to pre-
vent the outbreak of one if it is pos
sible, and know it is if proper care
is exercised on the part of officers
and citizens"
All water sources tapped to supple
ment a city's regular water supply
must be tested, DR.. Cogswell tells
health officials, and the state board
of health must receive a report de-
failing all circumstances of the water
addition before it can be used.
Vaccination against typhoid is urg-
ed upon citizens in cities and sections
where water supply is changed or
increased, and upon all persons in the
state generally. Campers particular
ly are urged to submit to vaccination,
as it is held next to impossible for
them to determine whether the water
they use is contaminated.
Free vaccine for use by officers who
will administer it free of charge is
offered in any quantity by the state
board of health, DR.. Cogswell says.
In some cities this plan is now in op-

High Temperature and Drouth
General Over State Says
Weekly u. S. Review.
ARE THE BEST N fLATHEAD
Spring Wheat Heading at From Six
to Eight Inches in Some Sections
Some Irrigated Fields Show
Need of Rain.

The hot weather of the last week
and the lack Of moisture have been
very unfavorable for crops of the state
according to the weekly summary of
weather and crop conditions for Mon
tana issued in Helena Wednesday noon
by Meteorologist William T. Lathrop.
The best crop conditions seem to pre-
vail in the Flathead country. The
best prepared and cultivated fields
are making the best showing. The
report:
"Only a few showers occurred in
northern and north central parts of the
state early in the reporting week, and
there is general lack of moisture.
The continuing drouth, the extremely
hot weather that has marked the week,
temperatures Of 100 and higher being
recorded at number of stations, the
clear skies, and the hot winds, COM
bined with the dry state of the soil,
have made the week a very unfav-
orable one for all crops.
Rye Drying Up.
"Winter wheat and other grains
have deteriorated further. In Custer
county winter rye is reported drying
up and not filling. Here and in var
ious other sections of the state it is
being cut for hay. Fall wheat is head
ing in Granite county, but, as every
where, it is badly in need of moisture.
Spring wheat is now heading at six
to ten inches in some fields, and all
spring grains are suffering, except
in limited areas. Gardens and unirri-
gated crops are now in poor condition
generally. &c. a,
"In the northwest, west of the di.
vide, conditions are still good, and
while rain is needed, the case is not
as urgent as elsewhere. Southern and
some central counties are especially
badly off, as there the drouth has been
most prolonged. Immediate precipita-
tion in normally seasonable quantities
would save much. The best prepared
and cultivated fields are now, of
course, making the best showing. Some
of the irrigated crops are plainly indi-
eating the need of rain.
''Potato bugs, as we'll as cut-worms,
are bad in Custer county. Streams
and irrigation water supplies are very
low, occasioning much concern. Grass
and spring grains have stopped grow
ing in Saltwater county. Ranges and
meadows are dry and short over great
parts of the state, but the condition
of stock is holding up well. Better
pasturage is being sought for large
herds and flocks. The first cutting of
alfalfa is still under way, and has
extended to the northern tier of coun-
ties"

VALLEY COUNTY RED
CROSS LEADS COUNTRY
Local Chapter Produces More Gar
ments Than Any Auxiliary in
United States.

A communication from E. R. Buell.,
director of publicity department, Red
Cross, northern division, states that
Valley county has the highest average
per capita in production in Montana
AS Montana stood first of the states in
the northern division and the northern
division stood first in the United
States, Valley county chapter is there
fore first in the United States. This
feat is one to be proud of and the
people of Valley county are proud to
know that they did their duty to the
extent of not only going cover the
top" but helping to put the enemy
out of commission.
It is remarkable, when one stops
and thinks what Valley county did in
Red Cross production. In spite of
crop conditions and other drawbacks,
our county stood first in the land
first among 100,000,000 people.
The auxiliaries of the county are
the ones that made it possible for
record such as we have and with the
excellent work of the officers of the
chapter, combined with the team work
and cooperation of the many women
workers, Valley county chapter be-
comes known to every Red Cross work.

Next week the Red Cross Bulletin
is going to tell about the Valley coun-
ty chapter and the work performed.
