FOOTBALL SEASON
Local Team Able to Return Defeats

4OOVO0A EGaAiS ]" lVAA 4IlO6OA WVO0
scheduled for last Saturday was called
off by Lidgerwood Friday evening.
They had agreed to meet the Golden
Tornado with autos at Wyndmere and
return them there after the game in
time fer the evening N. p, but, the
condition of the roads was such that
even this arrangement could not be
carried through. The local authorities
offered every .inducement possible to
try to get the Lidgerwood eleven to
come to Oakes to play, making the
trip on the 500, but the boys from
down the line said that if they couldn't
play at home they wouldn't play at
all, so the game was off.
While it was a disappointment to
Captain Clark Smith and his golden
clad henchmen not to have wound up
the season with a victory over Lidger-
wood, the record made by Oakes on
the gridiron this fall is bright spot
in the athletic history of the school.
Football was instituted here three
years ago this fall, and for three
seasons Oakes was walked over and
kicked around by about every team in
this vicinity. One thing, however, was
always true of the Oakes teams. They
were always fighting, no matter how
big the odds or the score against them.
They were green, and against more
experienced opponents were unable
to compete on equal terms, but they
never said die. And all the time they
were learning more about the game,
saving wood and saying nothing.
This year marked the fruition of
the hopes and expectations of the
three. lean years. Only three men
were lost from last years squad by
graduation, and Coach Wyttenbach
spent some time last spring drilling
the athletes in the fundamentals of
the game. There was a big nucleus
Of experienced players for the team
this fall.
In addition to the members of last
years team, Ed Hazel, who had star
red in previous seasons, was eligible
once more, after having been barred
last year because of a technicality in
his registration, under the rules Of the
high school league. The Ankeny
brothers, from Riverdale, registered
here to complete their high school
work, and among the members Of the
freshman class was the husky Ray
mond Hill.
Besides all this, there was the i'm
portant, but intangible spirit Of con-
idence and enthusiasm that had been
impaired to the squad, the whole high
school, and even to the fans Of the
city by Coach Wyttenbach. The re-
suit is shown in the resume Of the
season. Cakes lost but one game, and
that was lost only after three of
Coach Wyttenbach's best players had
been put on the sidelines through in
juries.
/ The results Of the seasons games
are outlined below:
Cakes 80, Glendale 0; Oakes o, Val
ley City 81; Oakes 2, Glendale 0;

treaty"
The hypocrisy of the Republican
senators. with the exception of the
"irreconciliables" was then exposed
by Senator Pittman, who said:
"Let me call attention to the fact
that every senator except four, who
voted for that reservation to the Yer
sailles treaty voted upon yesterday
against the similar reservation to the
four-power pact"
Without discussing the merits or
demerits of the four-power treaty,
the absolute reversal of their votes
ON the two treaties is a most glaring
illustration of the hypocrisy of Re-
publican craftsmanship in the senate
under the leadership of Henry Cabot
Lodge, eulogized by George Harvey
as "erudite in cloisteral aloofness."

THE ROMANCE OF AeRlcuLTyRE

Eugene Grace, President of the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation one of
the later millionaires created by
Schwab into the millionaire class, re-
ports that the steel industry is sound
with business improving and with in
dications pointing to a steady growth.
What change in a decade. Before
the vision of the elder Morgan mold
ed for the business world the picture
of a co-ordinated trade, the three or
four hundred steel plants were in a
chaotic state. The bold stroke of the
iron hand of finance started the in
dustry along the lane of amazing ac
complishment The people were stag
gered at the results. They had not
even thought of industry in terms of
the billion. The timid shook their
heads. 1t was admitted that behind
the great issue of common stock there
was not an asset worthy of the name.
The plants had to be replaced every
year or two, and the industry seemed
rest on shifting sand. But time,
and energy, backed, by the sterling
character and ability of men like
Schwab soon turned nebulous assets
into basis for sound credits. and to.
day the steel industry is regarded al
most as the unfailing barometer of
the worlds trade.
The romance of steel excites the
imagination more than do the tales
of Hans Anderson. but it will be moth
in gcompared with the ropance of ag-
riculture when some great organic
ing genius shows his head to lead the
farmers to their promised land Ag..
ricultural organization is more com
pick, of course, because where there
were few hundred steel plants there
are six and a half million farms, but
the financial Teturns will be CORES
pondingly great and far more las
ting when organization is perfected
The business problems are almost
identical, the coordination Of produc-
tion OF selling and of distribution. The
Farm Bureau and the agricultural
bloc are the two first signs of the
times. Upon that foundation is
bound to be built the emancipation of
the farmer from life of drudgery and
world wide industry that win bene-
fit all mankind.

SENATOR PiTTMAN EXPOSES
REPUBLICAN TREATY BUNK

The hypocrisy OF Republican sena-
tors with reference to their respec.
tive attitudes on the treaty of Yer
sailles and the four-power treaty was
most effectively exposed by Senator
Key Pittman. Of Nevada, in a discus
sion of the supplementary fourpower
treaty.
Senator Pittman, who is one OF the
keenest debaters in the senate, in the
course of the debate offered the fol-
lowing resolution:
And that the United States re-
serves to itself exclusively the right
to decide what questions are within
its domestic jurisdiction and declares
that all domestic and political ques-
tions relating wholly or in part to its
internal affairs. including immigra-
tion, labor, coastwise traffic, the tar
III, commerce, the suppression of traf-
fic in women and children, and in op-
ium and other dangerous drugs, and
all other domestic questions are sole
ly within the jurisdiction of the Unit
ed States and are not under this
treaty to be submitted in any way for
consideration"
An administration organ comment
ing upon this reservation said thar it
was so involved that portions of It
being heard provoked merriment in
the gallery.
Commenting upon this Senator
Pittman said:
'It is possible that it is involved,
and yet / had such confidence in the
ability of the senator from Massachu-
sets (Mr. Lodge) to draft reserva-
tions and the reservation presented
by him to the Versailles treaty hav-
ing been approved by majority vote
of the senate at the time of consider
alton of that treaty, that l adopted
the exact language which was ap-
proved by the senator from Massa-
chusetts and by, the majority of this
body in connection with the resolu-
tion and ratification of the Versailles
treaty.

United States against interference in
its domestic affairs by the four pow
ers at any conference which may be
called was taken word for word from

RADIO UNIVERSALLY
SENDS FARM NEWS
As Broadcasting Stations Now
Release Crop and Market
Reports.

National crop and market reports
are now broadcast by radio from As
government and private broadcasting
stations in the United States. In
charting the areas the minimum range
of each station is used, but under ia
vorable static conditions the area ac-
tually reached is much larger, so that
1t is frequently possible to receive the
messages anywhere in the United
States. More than 80 of the stations
broadcast by radiophone, which in
wolves no technical knowledge of radio
technique or codes ON the part of those
who listen in."
The Radio Market News Service of
the United States department of agri-
culture is making an effort to get vital
agricultural news to farmers as quick
ly as possible after the close of the
markets. To gather market informa-
tion the department has 73 branch Of
fices in 46 large market centers, 16
of which are directly connected with
the Washington office and with each
other by 1850 miles of leased tele-
graph wires. Marketing specialists
keep in constant touch with market
conditions in the field and at consum-
ing centers, and at least $4,000 re-
sponsible individuals, firms and rail
roads also report to the department
regarding the various factors that con-
troll the marketing of farm products.
The result is a complete day-to-day
picture of national agricultural condi-
lions. By the use of the telegraph and
the press, and more recently of the
wireless, this market news is received
by not less than 100000 readers.
In some instances progressive agri-
cultural communities have installed
receiving equipment in connection
with farmers organizations, so that
the market news will be available to
the county agent for distribution to
the daily press, telephone exchanges
and individual farmers. A number OF
country banks and country newspa-
pers have also installed receiving sets.
Upon request, the United States de-
partment of agriculture, Washington,
d. c.. will furnish receiving operators
with time schedules and special forms
to take down the messages broadcast
by radio telegraph.
