BEWARE OF STOCK SHARKS

The get-rich-quick promotions OF
the last two or three crazy years are
coming home to roost, now that money
is tight and the price of commodities
is dropping.
1t is stated in the agricultural de-
partment at Washington that new oil
companies, either hopeful or wildcat,
sold billion dollars worth of stock
to the farmers of one rich western
state in two years. These farmers
are now learning that most of this
money was abolutely thrown away.
In Iowa, two fashily advertised
packing house companies were started
and most of the shares were sold to
farmers of the state by statesmen who
received commissions of 25 cents on
every dollar they made the farmer pro-
duce. One of these concerns built a
plant and failed in four months. The
other didn't get that far; neverthe-
less, the million and half the farm
ers paid in is mostly missing. The
courts are now full of lawsuits by in
dignant stock purchasers.
Recently, 2 western farmer who in a
life time of hard work had developed
a first class farm worth $4,000, went
into court and asked that a guardian
be appointed for himself. 1t appears
that the stock boomers had gotten
him to sign up for stock in various
shady oil companies to the tune Of
SITE, 900. The guardian repudiated
the notes and the farmer will not lose
his farm
James A. Davis Of the Chicago AS
ISOLATION of Commerce says: ut is
safe to estimate that at this very mo-
ment there are more than one billion
dollars worth of wildcat invest
ments being offered to the people of
this country"
Don't buy. Beware of the sharp
ers!

WHEN is INDIAN SUMMER?

There is a general misapprehension
as to when that beautiful season an.
dian Summer, is properly due anc
there has been much controversy as
to When that seductive Spell OF
weather" so dreamy and allurinp
should be with US. This, from the
Philadelphia Inquirer, is tn latest ex-
PLANTATION CT when we ought to have
Indian Summer:
Whenever in September or Octo-
Der the air grows soft and the sun re-
sumes something of the summer heat,
we are told that the season of Indian
Summer is here. The error has been
frequently refuted; yet it persists and
makes itself the occasion of annual de-
bate. 1t is none the less quite mex
( cusable. The fact that Indian Sum-
| mer is the season in America coinci-
dent with the st. Martins summer of
Europe ought to be perfectly well
| known by this time. In fact the name
Indian summer is not unknown in Eu-
rope; witness passage in Charlotte
Bronte's Shirley
Nov the day of st. Martin of Tours
is Nov /. Why he gave his name to
the season, or why our ancestors as
ISOLATED it with the Indians, are mat
tiers of dispute. But there is no ques-
ton as to the time. 1t is early No
vember, the period of the last warm
days before winter comes in earnest.
THE pious Arcadian peasants of
Longfellow's familiar poem called it
the Summer of All Saints, and All
Saints Day is Nov. /. Obviously, In
dian summer does not make its app
pearance earlier than this. The the
DRY that it lasts thirty days and be-
gins when the sun enters Scorpio,
Oct. %, is not born out by the facts.
'Martinmas wind, when wilt thou
blow,
And shake the green leaf from the
treeH
"The balladist knew what he was
writing about. Indian summer finds
the trees still in leaf and strips them
before it goes. And in the few days
the week, perhaps--before the Mar
tinmas wind blows there is time of
mildness akin to spring, when the sun
lit haze broods over the landscape,
which we call Indian summer. All
others are limitations"

MONT ANA SAUER
 IN GRUDCE BOUT FRIDAY, JUNE 25
Light Heavyweights Will Wrestle on Winner-Take- All Basis with $1, ,OOO Side Bet - Sauer Agrees to Make 175 Pounds for the Western Gorilla

It's going to be fur making time all same trying to feed q couple of strange bulldogs out of the same dish putting Bull Montana, California wrestler actor, into the same ring with I'ete Sauer. protege of the world S champion heavyweight grappler, for q finish match, winner take -all and a 5000 side bet. Tally's spacious open air arena in Phoenix will be the scene Of the hostilities next Friday even tug. June 25.
 Montana likes Sauer just about as well as a burro likes work-and there isn't any love lost at that. And when Sauer tossed the western gorilla on his dome in Phoenix a few weeks ago, thereby rendering said gorilla uncon- scious, costing him the bout, some $500 in a side bet and two or three hundred other dollars in the division Of the purse, Montana's love for his eastern rival increased-yea many fold.
 Sauer Develops Peeve
 The pecvishness was all on Mon- tana's side until he returned to, Los Angeles and informed Jack Samson, champion light heavyweight grappler of the coast, other wrestleFs and count less newspaper men that Sauer was q big bum" when it came to wrestling. Thereupon Sauer developed a peevc. which he has been nursing with all the fidelity of expert.
 So fans of the valley are in for a great little spectacle when Promoters Tally and Hale corral the pair into a 24-foot ring al their big arena at Eighth and Washington streets. Phoe- nix, next Friday night. The first match was sensational-but it's going to be like a lawn social as compared with this return match, providing neither man weakens, and there doesn't seem to be a chance in the world.
 A Real Battle Royal
 Three other events are included on the program for next Friday night Arrangements are under way for a battle royal between five husky negro boys of Phoenix and plans have been completed for an amateur wrestling event, limited to 30 minutes.
 The advance sale of seats has al ready started at Doyle's cigar stand in Phoenix. where ringside and reserved seat tickets can be secured. There will positively be no advance in prices fol this match.

 view of arranging a match in St. Paul
 on Labor day. According to Barney
 Lichenstein. who represented Demp-

 aild promoter of the proposed match,
 offered S30,000 as Dempsey's end. Lichenstein said Jack Kearns. manager of Dempsey, had approved this amount as a guarantee, but wanted the privi : lege of taking 50 per cent of the re- ceipts. Reddy left tonight for St. Paul.
