Minister Could Cuss
 When He was GOIfing

A certain minister who had been persuaded to take up golf because he was in danger of undermining his health by too close application to his studies, complained very bitterly to his friend, another golfer, that the language used by his opponents was most unparliamentary.' His friend sympathized, and they arranged to play together on the following Sat urday.
 In the course of the round the clerical man topped several tee shots badly, and was astounded 10 hear his friend, after returning to the club house, informing some of the other members that the Rev. MT. So-and-So would soon make a good golfer, for his language at the fifth and 18th holes was simply horrible.
 There is one less on the waiting list at that club now.

Happy Smith Claims
 Fine Record in Ring

Happy Smiths manager sends the following praise about the boxer:
 The fighting ability of my protege, Happy Smith, 122 to 126, is arousing favorable comment throughout the sporting world. As his records con cIusively proves that he has whipped the best boys in the game, includ- ing several well known heavier box CTS, he is out with a sweeping cha1- lenge to meet 'em all.
 How is this for a record? Happy Smith has fought and given a neat facing to Benny Valgar on two occa- sions, and is ready to repeat to show that there was no 't1uke'' about his victories
 Valgar has been continually dodg- ing Smith and the reason is self evil dent. The cry of Smiths admirers ie: ''Ea Valgar afraid of Happy Smith ?'' Happy Smith holds decis- ions over some of the best boys in the bantam weight and featherweight divisions and issues a def to Benny Valgar, Charley Beecher, Johnny Murray, Young Chaney, Frankie Burns, in fact any featherweight in the game.
 Lately Smith has been causing sensation by his pugilistic victories which has brought his more in the imelisht of the sporting public than anytime in his career. Smith is the idol of Syracuse, having been match ed for six consecutive battles due to his great showing. Each fight he was pjtted against the best in the fighting game and invariably emerged tri- umphant. The upstate newspapers have nothing but praise for my pro fagR'S a willing, energetic, ''f1ghting-every minute" clever boxer, who could give a good battle to the best in the fight ing game. Several sporting editors even label Smith as the coming featherweight champion"

The farmer who will plan to diver sify will not have occasion to fear the changing conditions that sooner or later are sure to come. Whth plenty of corn and feedstuffs he will be able to raise all the pork he needs and will then be able to market his cot ton slowly, and when the prices are good. It is imperative that the far
 mer prepare now for the radical changes that will come in the future.

CAREY SELLS OUT
 SPRINGFIELD CLUB.

Shean and his father are the principal stockholders in the Cooley and Kimbal hotels in Springfield. Carey has not been popular with Springfield fans in recent years and the sale to Shean is therefore popular.

ADVANCE 81
PER BUSHEL
ON WHEAT
Vollmer- Clearwater Go. with;
Financial Connections to
Relieve Money Situation j..

Arrangements were completed this
week by the Vollmer- Clearwater Co,
one of the largest grain corporations
operating in the west with branch
houses located in most every town on
the Camas and Nez Perce prairies and
throughout the Lewiston district, to
advance $1.00 per bushel on wheat
stored in warehouses, and considerable
business has already been consummat-
ed along that line.
t is felt by business men acquaint-
ed with the situation now existing that
this move by the Vollmer-Clearwater
will considerably relieve the money
situation that is being extant through
out the country, In permitting produc-
er to liquidate their Indebtedness to
that extent at least, which in turn
will aid the business man.
The agreement into which the farm
er enters grants permission to the
company to ship and sell for their
own account on condition that the ad-
vance of $1.OO per bushel will be made
when the wheat is loaded and ready
for shipment, which it Is agreed will
be as soon as cars can be secured.
Final settlement will be made at any
time the farmer decides to sell at the
current market price for such class,
on tickets, weights and grades If
stored in Vollmer-C Clearwater ware
houses, otherwise on terminal weights
and grades, less storage and handling
charges paid and interest on advance
payment at the rate Of per cent per
annum.
II the market price should be less
than $1O0 per bushel when sold, the
producer agrees to pay the company
the difference between the selling price
and the advance, plus storage, hand
ling and interest The time Of the
agreement is set for June 1, 1921.
In case the grain Of any farmer en-
tering into this agreement Is not sold
to the company, the Vollmer-Clear-
water agrees to deliver a like amount
of grain at common point warehouses,
less deduction for freight.
This arrangement will permit the
farmer. to secure sufficient money to
supply immediate needs and still hold
his grain for a higher price, which is
believed by many win prevail during
the spring months, and- maintain his
credit at the same time,
