yNGRESS WORKING FOR FARM

Farm bureau members have reason
10 feel grateful for the initial success
which their national organization has
secured in legislation. The zero hour
in congress, just previous to the ad-
journment on August "a, saw whole
divisions Of the farm bureau legisla-
tive program over the top.
The conference report on the billion
dollar farm export credit measure was
adopted by both the house and the SEN
ate and it went to the White House
for the presidents signature. Presi.
dent Harding signed the Capper-
Tincher bill for the regulation Of grain
exchanges. The packer control bill
placing the packing industry and the
stockyards under supervision of the
secretary of agriculture has already
been passed and signed. The presi-
dent also recently signed the bill intro
duced by Senator w. S. Kenyon Of
Iowa, increasing the interest rate on
federal farm oar bonds from 5 to 512
per cent.
This congress also has to its credit
the bill introduced by Charles Curtis
of Kansas, increasing the working cap.
ital of the federal farm loan system
by $4,000, 900. 1t passed the emer
gency tariff, and the country has been
operating for several weeks under the
law which limits immigration to 2 per
cent Of foreign born in this country
as recorded by the census OF 1910 as
residing in the United States. The
federal aid road bill passed the senate
on August 10 carrying an appropriation
of SIS, 900 900 for road construction,
one-third Of which will be Immediately
available. AS passed it leaves the adj
ministration of the fund with the bu.
reau Of roads in the department of ag
riculture and does not establish a high
way commission. The highway legls.
lation is likely to be delayed until con-
gress convenes after its vacation. The
anne is true of the permanent tariff
and the tax bill, the bill to prohibit
the manufacture Of filled milk, the
Truth-in-fabric legislation, and the bill
proposing an increase in the maximum
of federal farm loans to individuals
from So 900 to $4,000.

RUTH MAY START BUNTING.
Rival Clubs Pub Third Over TO Guard
Against More HomerS

New York, June 27.-The sight of
Babe Ruth, the home run king, laying
down bunt along the third base line
is likely to become more familiar to
fans around the American league cir
cult than heretofore. Several clubs
have adopted special defense against
the slugger, moving the third base
man toward the shortstop sector, the
shortstop to second base, with the Sec
ond baseman playing in short right
field. Noting this, Manager Higgins
and Ruth believe they can cross
their opponents with an occasional
burt and succeed in drawing them
back into positions, making longer
hits easier to obtain. Ruth on two or
three occasions this week tried out the
scheme.

Jess Willard at Toledo two years ago.
Manhasset, N Y, June cI.-Training at
the camp of Georges Carpenter took on
Soon after Georges came in from the woods
the police guards were thrown about the
| camp and things began to hum behind the
barn.
Manager Descamps as usual refused TO
tell what was happening. He said, how
ever. that Carpenter was working hard
and had been let loose. His sparring ses-
sion was on the afternoons program and
1t was announced that the hesvyweights
who Should have arrived late last week
were on the job at last. Keen-eyed ex-
perts who have been sizing up the challeng.
er's physical characteristics vary in their
opinion Of whether Georges heavy under
pinhing will stand him well or prove
handicap in the battle with Dempsey next
Saturday. Tor men weighing not more
than 1T2 pounds heavy calves are sofne-
what rare and seldom have been noted on
successful heayweights. Excepting one or
two champions, one of whom was Jim,
Jeffries. it was recalled that most all OF
them did not have large legs.
A size up of the present champion shows
his calves to be much smaller than those
OF Carpenter. These experts who have fol-
lowed pugilism for years always have con-
tended that heavy calves were a handicap
to heavyweishts- 1t is their argument that
such a leg slows their foot work. others
however. argue that his heavy underpin-
ming will aid him to hold his feet In a
heavy bembardment of Dempsey's punches.

SQUARED RING HISTORY
Bill Brennan Made Jack Dempsey
Work Overtime to Collect One
Days Wages.
C.lnptcr Xxx.

The only boxer that ever got real
good days work out OF Jack Demp-
sey was Bill Brennan. Usually Jack
knocks an opponent out in the first
two or three rounds and collects his
days wages. But somehow or other
Bill is one of those fellows who can t
get to sleep right away. Once it took
six rounds for Dempsey to quiet his
nerves and on another occasion Bill
remained awake twice that long.
This second occasion was last De-
cember at Madison Square Garden.
Brennan was sure feeling fine that
night. He acted as tho he had just
taken a shower under the Fountain
around wondering which way to
dodge next. he stepped up and
showed the champion all his stuff.
Some of it didn't seem to sit very
4 we'll with the king of fighters. Early
lin the bout Brennan handed him a
wallop that for a moment seemed to
daze the head that wore the crown.
little later on his glove slashed
Dempseys mouth and after a while
other corpuscles began to take the air
in the vicinity of the champions ear.
The experts said Brennan carried
the fight to Dempsey for ten rounds.
Some skeptics believed the champion
tarried that long to give the movie
fans a treat. Other people whispered
that the real low down on the thing
was that Dempsey had not trained
hard for the scrap and was not in
good condition. The fact remained
that none of his caveman punches
were in evidence during the early part
of the fight.
He assembled one of these wallops
| in his left arm during the twelfth
round and let it loose upon Brennan,
lsquarely amidship. The big chal-
llenger's body assumed the posture of
a half-opened pocketknife. his head
dropping almost to his knees. Fight
ing hard against the approaching end,
4 he spread out his legs and remained
lIup- While swaying in this position
n Brennan received a sound smash on

Local Club Suffers Second Defeat
of Season.
The Santa Fe club of Topeka suf-
fered the second defeat of the season
at Western league park Sunday after
noon when it was beaten by Florence
by score of to 8.
It was one of the best games seen
at League park this season. In the
first inning it seemed that it was go
ing to be a farce. The locals started
out by making three runs, but after
that the visitors frightened up and the
Railroaders were unable to bunch hits
on Younkman.
Saffel was relieved by Seitz in the
seventh when Florence brought in the
tying run on Putnam's double, but
the visitors made two more trips
around before Seitz got warmed up
sufficiently to hold them

On account of the terrible weakness,
nervousness and alarming symptoms, which
are often produced by iron starvation of
the blood, the sufferer frequently never
suspects the real cause of her trouble but
thinks she has sumo other ailment. As a re-
suit Of iron starvation you may suffer from
headaches, dizziness, shortness of breath
or heart palpitation, pains across the back,
loss of memory, weak will power, melan-
choly or the blues" disturbed digestion,
loss of appetite, sleepless nights, night
sweats and so on. In such cases do not
wait until you go all to pieces and col
lapse in q state of nervous prostration but
eat more spinach and green vegetables and
take organic iron like Nuxated Iron with
them for while and see what differ
ence It makes. But be sure the iron you
take Is organic iron and not metallic iron
which people usually take. Metallic iron
is iron Just as it comes from the action of
strong acids on small pieces of iron, while
organic iron like Nuxated Iron is like the
iron in your blood and like the iron in
spinach. lentils and apples. Beware of
substitutes. Look for the name "Nuxated
on every package and the letters N. 1 on
every tablet. Your money will be refund
