General Crop Condition.

Crops throughout the northwest are
the best in years, according to a sur
vey made by scores of persons through
out Minnesota, Montana, North and
South Dakota. In some sections,
their reports show, small grain and
potatoes have suffered from unusually
heavy rains, but districts in which
these conditions are found are scat
tered and not widespread enough to
effect the general condition.
Although late spring caused many
farmers to decrease their acreage of
spring wheat, the amount Of corn and
flax planted brings the acreage up to
sown in 1919. The cool weather of
early spring gave the grains an ex-
ceptional opportunity to stool, with
the result that recent general rains
and hot weather have brought the
grains along to point estimated to
be at least week in advance of last
years crop at this time of the sum-
mer.
Damage done by tornadoes, cloud
bursts and floods, reported during the
past month, although heavy in some
sections, is reported offset by splen-
did conditions generally. The Mime
sofa potato crop has been hit harder
than others in the state by the rains
of the past two weeks. Potato grow
ers estimate that the yield will be less
than it would have been with more
perfect weather conditions, and predict
that the tubers may not be of highest
quality. In the lowlands, the heavy
fall of rain has caused some loss,
which cannot be estimated. In the
western section of the state, and in
some parts of the central section, as
well as southeastern Minnesota, this
condition is found With favorable
weather during the coming week, much
of the damage which resulted may be
corrected.-Morgan Messenger.

HEAD OF FARM BU-
REAU FEDERATION
Resigns to Relieve Organization of
Embarrassment Due to His
Political Activities.

S. L. Allen, Winnebago, president
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton since it was organized, resign
ed at a special meeting of the board
of directors, held last week at Univer-
sity Farm, St. Paul. Mr.. Allen quit
to relieve the organization of any en-
barrassment that might result from
his recent political activities. AS a
purely personal matter, he had made
several speeches in favor Of J. A. O..
Preus, and despite his efforts to pre-
vent such an impression, report was
current over the state that in so do
ing he was representing the State
Yarn Bureau.
Victor Holmquist, Hallock, vice
president, will serve as the fedora
tons executive until new president
is appointed.
In accepting Mr.. Aliens resignation
the board expressed itself as feeling
deeply the loss of Mr.. Aliens services,
but made it plain that the federation
must continue as a n-political or
ganization. Mr.. Allen saction was

Is There a Public?

The decision recently rendered by
New York court that common carri-
ers shall not consent in strike of the
handlers of produce, making it impos-
sible for goods to be moved except
on terms dictated by the unions, is
an important landmark in the slowly
defining status of the public. If the
longshoremen are not SO well off as
they might be, it is too bad; if they
can not agree with the carriers or the
carriers with them, again too bad. Set
tie it if possible, and let each side get
what it deserves, and, if possible, what
it thinks it wants. But meanwhile,
gentlemen, don't expect the rest of the
country to sit by and starve while you
are arranging your little difficulties.
The decision rebukes the carriers
who are presumably apitalists-quite
as much as the longshoremen. And it
rebukes both in the name of everybody
use who is not direct party to the
quarrel-in the potent name, that is,
of the public Weekly Review.

Slips of the Best Pens.

We are accustomed to laughing at
schooIboy .'howlers," and the anabi-
tious mixed metaphors of second rate
writers are frequent source OF
amusement, but few perhaps realize
how common such slips are even IN
the best literature. Just as it is I'M
possible to print book of any length
without typographical errors, so even
the most painstaking authors will stub
a tone once and again. A French
man. Albert Gin, has recently pub
lished a collection of absurdities gath
cred from the masterpieces OF French
literature, some Of which are quoted
and commented on by Les Annales, the
Paris weekly.

in Madame Bovary:" "Old Rouault

REYMEN TO TRY
STOPPING KNICKS

Washington Independent football
fans are due for a showdown next
Sunday afternoon when the mush-
room wonder eleven from George
town. known as the Knickerbocker
team, hooks up with the Rex Ath-
letic Club aggregation at Union
League Park.
The Rnicks threw a large-sized
monkey wrench into the gridiron
dope bucket Sunday afternoon Just
as the seasons mixture was due for
the winters baking. rhe Navy Yard
squad was the victim. This Navy
Yard clan battled to a 7-to-7 draw
with the Rex the week before. The
teams appeared to have 1t on every
thing in sight hereabouts until the
Knickerbockers gathered their CO.
terie of college stars and sat in.
Now the Knicks have to show the
Rex.
Knickerbocker officials announced
last night they would carry the
same lineup for the Rex game as
was shot against the Gunmakers
Sunday. The 26-to-7 victory over
the Navy Yard tells the story of
the prowess of this team.
Rex officials say their men came
through the two contests last week
end in tiptop form, the better for
the experience. The Northeast
squad will go through daily work
outs this week in an effort to halt
the sudden dash to limelight by
the Knickerbockers.

Dempsey to Defend Title
Against Brennan Tonight
Fans, Figuring Champion Easy Winner, Do
Little Betting on Bout Challenger
Confident of Victory.
By FRANK G. MENKE.

NEW YORK. Dec. 13.-Tomorrow
lis the day when Jack Dempsey is
scheduled to operate for three rounds
or less-smack Bill Brennan into
the arms of morpheus-and then col
lect 100000 iron dollars.
The mighty champion takes the
man who has fifty knockouts to his
credit in a slated fifteen-rounder in
Madison Square Garden tomorrow
night Much has been said-by the
press Notwithstanding Brennan's
vast improvement since Dempsey
pounded him cuckoo a pair of years
ago. and much stress has been laid
upon Brennan's interview which ac-
claims the fact that he's going to
upset the fistic world by hammering
Dempsey into a coma
But nobody's betting on II.
Fans Lay on Betting.
Some folks state that the wager
ing Is to 1 that Dempsey will win; [;
to 1 that he does 1t with a knock
out and better than even money that
Brennan won't survive six full
rounds of fistcuffing. But there
isn't any betting. The above may
represent the offerings of the Demp-
seyites-but there's no monied Bren-
nan admirers around these parts.
The general belief is that Dempsey
Will win within three rounds. It
wouldn't be at all startling il Bren-
nan failed to go two full rounds.
or would anybody get all upset about
IL, and shrek, IL Dempsey put Bren-
nan away in a round.
Brennan will last just as long as
ne can keep his jaw or his heart out
or DempSey's reach. And that, un-
doubtedly. won't be for very long
because Dempsey is a greyhound in
comparison with Brennan. He'll
weave in and out. coaxing openings.
When he gets one. and the far-famed
Ieft collides with Brennan's law. or
the crushing right rips into Bren-
mans body the hoi polloi might lust
as wen begin putting on overcoats
ana squirting around for the nearest
exit
Brennan's Chance Slight.
Yes, Brennan can hit. Might do
some damage II he landed. But NO
one has really hit the lS8-pouDd
dempsey in his last twenty lights
because Jack hits 'em first No
reason to anticipate that the slow
moving, awkward. flat-footed 1872
brennan is going to drive through
when speed boys failed to accom-
plish the trick.
Lots of folks have the idea that
Brennan is rather foolish to tackle
Dempsey.
He'll do nothing but get an
awful pounding" they say.
But they're wrong. The pound
ing is a rare portion for Brennan.
But he'll get S35.000 as a solacing
influence; $4,000. gents, count 'em.
And that much is almost enough to
balm anybody for even so hazard
us an occupation as being a target
