terly unable to defend himself. Blood
dubbed from his mouth with every
gasp for breath while the crowd about
the ringside began to yell to Referee
Record to stop it. Just as the bell rang
and Willard collapsed in his chair he
spat out a tooth and it was seen that
he was in bad condition. AS he sat
lolling from side to side, his chief sec
ond, Walter Monahan. talked earnestly
to him and when Willard nodded his
head Monahan walked over and spoke
to Pecord. The referee threw up his
hands and hurried to Dempsey's con-
ner. He gesticulated in the uproar
and finally pulled Dempsey toward the
center of the ring before the new
champion realized that Wizards sec
onds had thrown up the sponge. AS
soon as he grasped the situation, he
started for Wizards corner and the
late titleholder arose and stepped
weakly to meet him.
They shook hands and Willard NUT
tered something in reply to Dempsey's
remarks and the fight had passed into
history.
Willard said:
"In the first round when Dempsey
hit me with a left hook | tried hard
to continue, but l was rapidly losing
my strength. My eye was closed at
the end Of the third round and | real
lied that it would be useless for me
to continue, as | could hardly see. 1t is
hard to admit defeat, but Dempsey is
the hardest puncher l ever faced"

FLATHEAD WHEAT YIELD
WILL RE LARGE

VAIL LII
Missoula, July 1.-THE monthly crop
report of Stanley Scarce of Roman,
dealing with conditions in the lower
Flathead valley and western Montana,
made public here, says that about
100000 bushels of both winter and
spring wheat produced in the area. He
estimates that winter wheat will av-
erage rs per cent On the poorest dry
land to 100 per cent on the irrigated
sections and that spring wheat after
deducting 10000 acres which failed
to make a stand from lack of germina-
ton will range from 10 per cent on
dry land to 100 per cent on irrigated
land.
"There are about 10000 acres of
winter wheat irrigated and $4,000 of
spring wheat" says the report. CAV
eraging conditions, winter wheat can
be placed at so per cent, spring wheat
at 35 per cent, Indicating a total yield
of approximately 100000 bushels in
the lower Flathead valley"
Other estimates on the crop yield
of the valley give rye SO per cent; oats
35 per cent; barley 40 per cent; field
peas rs per cent; sugar beets so per
cent; hay so per cent to 100 per cent,
and potatoes rs per cent.
The report states that last month
was the driest June ever experienced
in the valley, so far as records go, the
precipitation being IL inch, compared
with an average of 2.97, and, for June
last year, lip.

Fargo, N. D., July S.-No material
damage has been done to crops in the

occur from the prevalence of black
rust in the valley, according to Dean

"All of these dry winds of the past
few days have tended toward the hast

DECIDING Mistake.
Investigation then disclosed that the
original dispatches from Gen. Har-
bord, in charge of transportation in
France, listed the 311th and not the

at the War Department have expressed
regret at the trouble and anxiety
caused by the erroneous announcement
made by the department and have
taken steps to clear up the misunder-
standing.
