BROOkINGS BALL CLUB STOPS
WINNING STREAK OF THE
MINNESOTA TEAM
HIRE SPEEDY NINE FROM NORTH DAKOTA
Pitchers Battle at lamberton Lasts
Eleven Innings and End in
0 to o Tie.

After battling eleven innings with
out a score for either side, one of the
hardest fought games of the season
was called off last Sunday afternoon
at Lamberton, Mimi, between the
Lamberton team and the team from
Brookings. 1t was a battle in which
the batteries of the two were the prin-
cipal actors. Higgins, a southpaw won
der who was just recently secured
from North Dakota, pitched the entire
game for Brookings in a manner that
won praise from everywhere. The
game was errorless on both sides with
one exception, that being an error Of
the Lamberton first baseman. The
result of the game was surprise to
the Minnesota fans, since Lamberton
is generally conceded to have one of
the fastest teams in that section and
expected an easy victory from the
Brookings visitors. Brookings batters
got more hits during the game than
the Lamberton players who have a
great reputation for swatting the pill.
The Brookings ball club is now firm
ly established as one of the first rate
organizations of the state and has ar
ranged heavy schedule accordingly
1t is planned to keep on playing until
about October /. At a meeting of the
baseball association held last Thurs
day evening e. R. Bartling, H. G.
Williams and Earl Mitchell were ap,
pointed to hire an entire team from
North Dakota who have been playing
together all season. AS a result the
following men were hired: Higgins
pitcher: Croake, catcher; Powell, cen.
ter field; Tucker, right field: Chesbro
first base; Lehman, shortstop; Neybor
left field; Dutchman, second base; Nc
Nee, third base, and Kutina and
Wieser of the former Brookings organ
ization will be retained. Kutina is ar
exceptional pitcher and Wieser is good
on the second sack and hits we'll II
G. Williams was elected treasurer OF
the association.
The team had an off day Tuesday
and lost to Dell Rapids in luckless
game there by a score of 4 to
Neither Kutina nor Higgins pitched
Lehman, the shortstop, taking the
mound instead in order to give the
regular hurlers a rest. The game
scheduled with Pipestone yesterday
afternoon was called off on account
of rain. Today the team will meet
Toronto at the fair grounds in this
city. Brookings won a game from To
ronto last Thursday at Toronto. To
morrow the team will go to Flandreau
for a return game there. A game has
been scheduled with Cotton Sunday

NoNRARTJ~ ,s$s CIRCULATING m
PETITT 81 FOR FILING OF
SXATE TICKET

A. c. Townley, head of the non
partizan league, is to visit northern

independent" ticket, filed in nearly
all north Idaho counties and to be
filed in the state He is to make
two speeches in northern Idaho, the
first at Lewiston on Saturday, Aug
use 21, and the second in Moscow,
Sunday, August 20.
The campaign of the nonpartizans
is now on in the panhandle" and
will be carried into every one of the
northern counties. Meetings are be-
ing held in big tent owned by the
league. This insures a place to meet
as in many places the rental of a
hall to the nonpartizans is forbidden
and in some towns they are not per-
mitted to hold meetings in the in
corporated limits. In such places the
tent is pitched outside of the city
limits and the speakers, claiming
persecution" of the league by "Big
Business" makes an issue of the fact
that they are not permitted to hold
meetings in the towns.
F. P. Waters, of Spokane, who has
been organizing the league in Latah
and adjoining counties and secured
900 signatures to the petitions to file
candidates for legislature and COM
missioners in this county, has been
called away for week, and will
speak at the tent meetings. He left
Sunday for De Smet where tent
meeting is to be held The other
speakers will be H. F. Samucls, of
Samuels, Idaho, candidate of the
league in 1918 for governor and
nominee of the league this year as
an Independent" candidate for
United States senator to succeed
Senator Nugent. Waters and
Samuels will hold meetings at De
Smet, Monday night, Potlatch Tues
day night, Troy, Wednesday night,
where Sherman Fairchi1d nominee
he and waters will speak there and
at Kendrick, Thursday night and
Genesee Friday night. Then the
"big gun," Townley, joins the tent
crowd and will speak at Lewiston
Saturday night and at Moscow Sun
day afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Petitions for the state ticket are
now being circulated in Latan and |
other northern Idaho counties. There |
must be at least 5000 signatures to
the petitions and they must come
rom at least 25 per cent of the COM
les of the state. AS there are A
counties there must be signers from
1t least II of these. They must be
lied with the secretary OF state not
ater than Tuesday, August oath, but
hose from Latah county must be IN
lot later than August 19, for Trey
must have the 90. K" of the county
luditor before being sent to Boise.
10 doubt is expressed by the leaders
hat the requisite number of sigma
ures will be secured.

LICENSED IN IDAHO

BOISE, Idaho.-The headquarters
of the recently organized Idaho
Automotive Trades Association re-
ported today that there were 48,507
cars registered in the state of Idaho.
This represents around $45 900 900
invested in automobiles and trucks in
this state and discloses the vast use
of the automobile for business, pro
feSs'onal and other purposes
A survey recently ccm3!etei shows
that 'c5s than one PER cent of the
cars IN Idaho are used for purely
,,Sasnre purposes. In m,,:e t. an 90
per cent of. the cases cars in this
state are used by the individual for
BUSINESS and professional reasons
and N view of the shortage of other
means of transportation and be-
canse Of modern methods of doing
business they are set lcwn as being
absolutely Indispensable.

WATERMELONS RIPE

JULIAETTA-On last Saturday af-
ternoon. the Frank Hoisington tbresh-
ing separator was burned together
with between 500 and 500 sacks of
wheat The fire is supposed to have
been caused by an explosion from
smutty grain. This makes the third
outfit that Mr. Hoisington has lost by
fire within the last two or three years.
1t is understood that the wheat was
covered by insurance. Mr.. Hoising-
ton was threshing his own grain on
his farm on lower Big Potlatch ridge
when the fire occurred.
The first 23 acres of fall wheat
threshed on the Frank Hoisington
farm on Big Potlatch ridge averaged
between AZ and 4S bushels per acre.
Tomatoes have become so plentiful
at Juliaetta that local merchants are
now retailing them at five cents per
pound.
The first locally grown ripe water
melons of the season we're picked last
week in Juliaetta. The Juliaetta
watermelons are the same quality as
those of which the dar1ies dream
about in the sunny south.

GETTING DATA ON
WHEAT COST BIG TASK
ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF WORK
REQUIRED TO ASCERTAIN
COST OF PRODUCTION

| ThatltWlu be many months before
| the cost of producing wheat in the
Inland Empire can be definitely told
is the statement of Byron Hunter, of
the federal department of farm crops
management, who is stationed at the
Universityof Idaho, for this line of
work in northern Idaho. The gov
ernment has undertaken to ascertain
whatit costs to produce bushel of
wheat on an average farm in various
sections of the state. Whitman
county, Washington and Latah
county, Idaho, were selected for the
experiments in the northwest, these
being two important wheat growing
counties in their respective states.
Two experts from the federal de-
partment of agriculture at Wash
ington; and two men each from the
University of Idaho, at Moscow, and
Washington State College, at Pull
man, have been engaged on the work
for months. Mr.. Hunter said:
"We have secured data from $50
farms in Whitman and Latah coun-
ties. We have taken everything into
consideration, the number of hours
worked a day, the size and weight OF
horses used, the number of horses,
the value of the land or its rental
value, and every item that enters into
the cost of production of bushel of
wheat on an average farm This
data has been gathered, but it has
all got to be segregated, tabulated
and totalled and this work takes
months. There are six of us work
ing on it now, two government men
and two men from each of the
schools, and we have two stenog-
raphers. I cannot tell when the re-
port will be made public, for there
is an enormous amount of work to be
DONE When 1 did this work in the
Twin Falls irrigated district last year
worked from January until June,
another assistant worked from Feb
ruary until June and another started
in March and worked until June and
a fourth helped in May and June and
the work was not nearly as extensive
or complicated as that being done
now. When we get this work done,
however, we will have a very accur-
ate estimate of what it costs to pro-
duce bushel of wheat in the Pa
louise country"
Mr. Hunter made this statement |
in reply to a request from coast
for the results of the ex-
pertinent, or investigation, which |
started several months ago.
