hardest thing on earth to accomplish,
and dependable, first-hand data is
absolutely necessary If the Executive
Council is to act intelligently and
with anything approaching fairness
to all.
This Information the Federation
proposes to furnish. When complet-
ed the survey will show land values
by counties, both in 1919 and 1921;
it will show whether the initiation ex-
perienced two years ago has been dis
counted and to what extent; it will
show the percentage OF bankruptcies
resulting from the boom, the proper
ton OF cases where owners have been
compelled to take back farms that
could not be paid for, and much 9TH

NO FRUIT IN IOWA

This is evidently not a fruit year
in Iowa. Reports show that the
fruit, particularly apples, has had
many adversaries this season.
First it was the frosts and freezes
which came along in April. These
cut short big per cent of the apple
crop. Then along came the bugs,
which are still on the job, and now
the June drop, many of the apples
which apparently weathered the
freeze, falling off as soon as they
start to develop.
"Codding moth, worms and other
insects, with the exception Of cur
culio, appear TO be more numerous
than ordinarily" reports Secretary
Herrick in his July report. I'm
orchards which are not sprayed well
larger percentage of fruit is apt
to be infected because of the small
amount of fruit"
Winter apples promise only about
Is per cent of full crop, summer
apples "a per cent and fall apples rs
per cent. Grapes promise IS per
cent. black raspberries 6S per cent,
red raspberries IL per cent, black
berries rs, gooseberries 81, currants
SO, peaches 30.
The final estimate on strawberries
places the yield at As per cent and
cherries at per cent.
With only small crop of apples
to work on the insects are likely to
play havoc with the apple crop un-
less spraying is practiced.

the heaviest batteries of his blows, 1t
appeared as though the champion
might be forced to assume a defens-
i've attitude. The pause in Demp-
esy's attack, however, was due more
to surprise and fluster at the savage
ness of his opponents rally. After
a few seconds of indecision he gath
cred himself together again and al
though the round was undoubtedly
Carpenters on aggressiveness and
clean blows landed there was not the
slightest evidence that Dempsey had
been hurt by Carpenters punches.
He shot out of his corner at the
bell for the third round with every
evidence of an intention to finish the
battle. With a menacing scowl on
his dark features, he followed Car
pentier about the ring as the latter
sidestepped and ducked the lunges,
in an endeavor to corner the chal-
enger. Crouching low and with
body and fists swinging from side to
side he crept after Carpenter until
he caught him on the ropes near a
neutral corner and then began the
battering which pressaged the end.
There was little question in the
minds of the most expert among the
spectators as to the ultimate out
come.
Carpenter, with his speed of foot
gone, confidence shattered, blood
running from his nose and mouth,
and cash over his cheekbone, look
ed like hunted animal.

pEMpsEY RETAINS HIS TITLE
Lands Knockout Blow to Young
Frcnchman in the Early Stages
OF the Fourth Round


Jack Dempsey is still heavyweight
pugulistic champion of the world.
A crushing right swing from the fist
of the American fighter shattered
the titular aspirations of Georges
Carpenter in the fourth round of
the socalled "battle of the century"
at Jersey City Saturday afternoon.
The tlle-driving blow landed flush
upon the jaw of the Frenchman,
flooring him for the second time in
a trifle more than minute of fight
ing in the final decisive round.
Although he had staggered to his
feet after the initial knockdown, he
was unable to survive the second
knockdown and was motionless as
Referee Harry Ertle tolled off the
fatal ten counts.
Although the knockout punch was
driven to Carpenters jaw, the way
to Dempsey's victory had been paved
by continual bombardment of blows
which landed on every section of
the Frenchman's body. Each swing
jab and uppercut, scored to the stom-
ach, ribs or sides, contributed to the
sewing up process Of the speedy Car
pentier.
In addition, clubbing right which
landed flush on the back Of Georges
neck in the third round, played an
important part in his defeat The
Frenchman folded over in an attempt
to protect his body, left the back Of
his neck exposed. and Dempsey, with
the fair target in front of him, drove
down terrific slam to Carpenters
vertabrae.
After the knockout the Frenchman
stated in his dressing room that this
.dnch was the cause Of his pugilistic

"As President Harding said in his
letter. If Congress will promptly
sanction such a grant of authority,
the Secretary of the Treasury may
proceed to the prompt exercise of the
powers granted to him, and we reas-
onably may expect a satisfactory
handling of the obligations due and
the claims of our Government which
are awaiting settlement
Congress may very likely add
some limitations to the act before
passing it, but the steps will un-
doubleday be taken to get our finan-

more definite and satisfactory basis. I"

GREATEST FARMER IN

ture. This article is the ninth of

our Government various depart
ments which is being distributed free

gent understanding of the magnitude
and intricacy of the work of Our Gov
ernment. 1t is an unusually timely
service rro... Which the entire COM
munity can profit.
The latest article in this series
shows clearly what an important part
the Department Of Agriculture plays
in furthering the interests of both the
farmer and the ultimate consumers of
their product. 1t tells how the depart
ment solves the individual problems of
every variety of farmer in every part
