GOVERNOR RENEWS HIS
PROTEST IN REGARD TO
M|SGRAD|NG Of GRA | n

Oklahoma City, July 29.-Gov. j. Il \.
Robertson has renewed his protest to
members OF the Oklahoma congressional
delegation regarding the misgrad!ng of
grain. Some time ago the governor
after trip through the wheat belt,
protested TO the secretary of agricui
ture, protested at what he terms the
unfair discrimination against oklahc-
ma wheat growers and especially
grading and dockage as applied by the
federal government to all grades of
wheat.
II am fully in accord and sympathy
with John \. Whitehurst president OF
the state board of agriculture, relative
to the system OF grading and dockage
now in effect and administered by the
federal grain corporation" said Cover
nor Robertson. "The farmer, as well
~ the small grain dealer has always
protested against the unfair grading
and dockage system. Tho present
system of grading entirely destroys the
commercial customs as established by
many years OF experience in the truly
grain states. This condition may suit
someof the isolated conditions of the
north and east but it is entirely unfair
10 the great wheat producing states OF
the southwest and honest dealer is as
much puzzled over its methods as the
producer is.
There are no facilities for enforcing
the present grade and dockage system
30 far as it relates to the farmers OF
oklahoma, and some INSCRIPTIONS
grain buyers are hiding behind this diff
ficult method OF grading and buying
to the detriment of the producers,
while hundreds of buyers are paying
upon tho competitive price and not
merely staying within the government
price or below; yet there are some who
think it is timeto get theirs while the
getting IS good.
"I do not believe that any grading
system will equitably apply to nation
wide grain grading, because OF the
multiplicity of grades and conditions.
Hundreds OF grain buyers would be

TEN that has proven just and equitable
to the buyer and the producers, and
tho apparent effort of the federal grain
corporation, looking out for the inter
ests of our allies to the detriment OF
the producers is. in harmony with the
methods pursued by England and
France in attempting to buy our cotton
through certain government agencies at
the lowest price they possibly can |
agree that America should be fair to
foreign buyers, after having protected
the full interest of our own citizens. OK

count of a dockage system that is

 Although the Yankees were beaten, they were far from disgraced by the outcome of tho game. Cicottc held them to three hits, but they at least managed to bunch two of them for their lone run. The Sox could do no more until finally Jackson landed on a ball that suited him and the game was over.
 One of the greatest crowds of the season filled the stands. Nearly 30,000 fans kept the turnstile clicking joyously. The reserved stands were filled to OverfOWing, and a bowling mob of rabid enthusiasts overran the bleachers.

IMPORTANT SERIES

Reds and Giants Primed for Four
 Game Series, Starting Today

New York, July 21.-The bia series of the year in so far as the hopes of the Giants and New York rooters are concerned, got under way this afternoon at the Polo Grounds. Pat Moran and his rejuvenated Reds. the only recognized peril to the Giants pennant chances, opened a four-game set with Q double hea der today and, from now until late Wed nesday afternoon, a New York hit will draw more applause than at any time since the McGraw machine made it's successful pennant dash in 1917.
 The two teams are parated by trife more than one complete game. If the Reds should win the first game this afternoon, they will be few points behind the Giants, with two more victories and two more defeats. That is how close the battle is being waged for the leadership. The Reds could go into first place by taking both games today, or by taking three of the four in the series, which ends Wednesday night The Giants have only to break even to retain their ad l. vantage when Moran's men leave town.
 
 fort. The Reds will return home in a few days for some games amid more friendly surroundings and the Giants will have to do their playing away from home; hence the advan- tage of MCGraWs men picking up considerable ground while the Red legs are at the Polo Grounds.
 Moran has worked wonders with this team which came today to dis pute New York's title to league lead ership. Pitchers who were not highly regarded in other years have been consistent winners for the suave 1rishman, who knows every little thing about baseball and just as much about handling ball players When the Reds were here in May they got little attention as pennant contenders, but since that time they have satisfied the fans all throughout the National league circuit that they must be considered
