Ward County Breeder Sold Cow for
$1,000, ROtarians Are Told

Ward County Breeder Sold Cow for
$1,000, Rotarians Are Told
II. E. Wheeler, city assessor, who
has given much study to taxation
problems, addressed the members OF
the Minot Rotary Monday, presenting
for their consideration his views on
the sales tax proposition. Mr.. Wheeler
is Of the opinion that this will prove
the most effective way Of raising
money for taxes and would eliminate
the schemes of the wealthy men of
the country to evade taxation by in
vesting their money in tax free secur
tiles.
Col. E. S. Person gave an interest
ing report on the National Dairy
Show in St. Paul. 'Prosperity fol-
lows the dairy cow" is the slogan of
the National association. Banks the
country over no longer loan money to
the exclusive grain farmer and it is
an important fact that where bills
are being met this fall, are in the dis
tricts where particular attention is
paid to dairying.
Mr.. Persons herd of Is Guernseys
were exhibited in nine states this
year, including the various state fairs
and the National Dairy Show and at
each place all of them were in the
money with the exception of one ami
NAL The receipts for the premiums
exceeded the expenses, SO the Person
herd received a great deal of the best
kind of advertising at no expense.
During the National Dairy Show, Mr..
Person disposed Of a cow and heifer
to breeder in South Dakota and re-
ceived many inquiries which will re-
suit in a great deal Of profitable busi-
ness later on, without doubt.
Mr.. Person stated that 0. K. Spires,
Ward county Guernsey breeder, sold
a three-year-old Guernsey cow to the
foreman of the J. C. Penney Emadine
Farm in New York for 81 100000. The
foreman visited the Spires farm thru
some advertising which he had done,
liked his stock and selected one of his
choice cows.
The business men Of Minot can we'll
afford to interest themselves more in
the Ward County Guernsey Breeders
Association, Mr.. Person stated, for
this organization is responsible for
putting Ward county on the map as
the home of some Of the finest dairy
animals in the United States.
A violin solo was played by John E.
Howard. Aksel Bratsberg was chair
man Of the meeting. Rotarian Blan-
chard of Chillicothe, Mo-, was guest
and he made short talk, stating that
his club had arranged card index of
each boy in the city, which has pop
ulation of 1000. Every underprivi-
legged boy is "fathered" by some Ro-
tartan who helps him to get his
chance in life.

Jack Stacey Engaged as Caretaker of
Ward County Fair Grounds. a .e

The Ward County Fair board has
engaged a caretaker for the fair
grounds east Of Minot and the grounds
will hereafter be under constant sup
ervision. The new caretaker is Jack
Stacey who has rented the Thornhill
farm between the grounds and the
Mouse river and also lying north of
the Great Northern railway tracks.
Mr.. Stacey has just moved onto the
farm, having come from the vicinity
of Rice Lake, Wis, where he has re-
sided the last three years. He is
North Dakota pioneer, however,
having lived near Bottineau for thir-
ty years. He came to North Da-
kota from Ontario in 1886 before Mi
not was in existence and for time
worked on the Great Northern rail-
way while it was being extended west.
Mr.. Stacey will look after the
grounds Of the fair and the public is
warned against attempts to interfere
with or damage the property. Some
slight damage has already been done
and persons engaging in such depre-
law, Secretary Carl w. Mason an
nounces. Most of the public, how
ever, takes pride in the fine fair
grounds and is glad to cooperate in
keeping them in proper condition.
The gates are to be closed soon and
the grounds shut up during the win
ter.
Various deals are being discussed
for the rental of the fair buildings for
storage during the winter. There is
much space in the large stock barn for
storage of automobiles, farm machin-
cry, etc. The Exhibition building
can also house much in the line Of
general goods.
Plans for the coming year are al
ready beginning. Some special prem
iums to exhibitors have already been
listed and it is expected this list will
grow substantially before the next
premium book is issued which will be
early in the spring. A premium book
mailing list is being compiled and
persons who wish their names includ-
ed should notify the secretary.
The fence around the grounds,
which was not completed when the
fair opened, is now being finished.
Some race horse men are planning
to come here in the spring to train
their horses and remain here during
the season.

According to his present avowed in
tentions the Georgia Peach" intends
to leave his old twirlers in Augusta
until the very eve of the opening of
the American League championship
race, if not longer. The length Of their
stay will depend upon the weather of
the North. They may even be ordered
to loiter in Dixie until early May, the
Or three weeks.
If the plan is put into practice it
will be eagerly watched by rivals. Ger
tainly it is novel idea. Cobb blames
last years poor start to the vagaries of
Northern weather. He says his pitch
ers were in the proverbial pink when
they left San Antonio, but contracted
all manner of ailments that incapaci-
tated them most Of the season in the
transforming games on the way North.
George Dauss, Howard Ehmke and
porting. They wouldn't be of much
use in the exhibition games anyhow.
Rube Oldham, Leonard's southpaw run
ming mate, has been left behind with
the three others. The quartet will not
be called in until the weather has set
tied around the Great Lakes.
Cobb realizes that pitching is going
to determine Detroit's' final standing.
On the veterans will fall the burden.
He will gamble during the early spring,
when all teams are more or less off
form, hoping thus to conserve what is
best in his veteran tossers against
summer and real baseball weather.
Only two Tiger cub pitchers have
shown the earmarks Of future great
ness. These are Johnson and Pilette,
| for whom Frank Navin is reputed to
! have paid Portland $4,000. Holling
and Cole, a southpaw. are both well
liked by Cobb, but this pair belong
to the veteran category, as both were
with the club all last year. Because
of the uncertainty Of his four best
veterans Cobb for time is likely TO
carry staff of ten twirlers, in which
event Stewart, left-hander from
Texas, and Olson. with Syracuse last
year, will be carried till mid-May at
| least
Headed by Tyrus himself. who will
be fanked by Bobby Veach and Harry
Heilman, the champion batter, Detroit
is bound to present formidable out
/ field trio. In reserve there are Flag
stead and Johnny MOZART, the Notre
Dame phenom. Cobb has taught Mo-
hart some of his batting tricks, and the
youngster is a most promising pros
pect.
Detroits infield will be identical with
that of last year, with one exception,

Griffith Suspends Bush
For Failure to Report

WASHINGTON, April 1.-President
Griffith of the Washington club has
served suspension on Donie Bush. the
former Tiger shortstop, whom the Ma
tionals intended to carry as utility
nfelder this year. because of his fail
urc to report for spring training with
the team at Tampa, Fla. Griffith, who
has several times granted Bush an ex-
tension of time for reporting this
spring, said he was convinced when
DOME failed to put in an appearance
again last week, that he was trying to
get out of the training grind.
Griffith has withdrawn Bush's con-
tract, which he had not signed although
he had agreed to the terms, and said
the veteran infielder would have to show
different state of mind before he would
offer him another one.
The Nationals line up for their
seventh game with the Boston Braves
to-day at Tampa. They now have
two-g game edge in the series. Mogridge,
Courtney and McGraw had the pitching
assignment for Washington.
New-York tribune., 1922-04-02

Rigney, proved by far the best candi-
date for the vacancy at short, held
down 80 successfully for years by
DOME Bush. Rigney is still bit
green. but hustler. who can cover
plenty of ground to either side Of him.
| Short field seems the probable in
field weakness. Blue will play irst,
Young second and Bobby Jones third.
Cobb has the veteran George Cutshaw
and Hainey for jnfed utility Hainey
is very fast. With Omaha last season
he stole fifty-eight bases.
The catching staff will be as it was
last year-Bassler, Woodall and Man
ion. All three of these young men de-
veloped wonderfully during the cam
paign of 1921. Cobb will have good
receiving corps.
Unless Rigney falls down lamentably
the team should do considerably better
than year ago. With him the infeld
| should be stronger The 1921 Tigers
were a heavy scoring combination, but
sievelike inner defense behind me-
| diocre pitching cost heavily. Detroit
| lost no fewer than twenty-siX game $
by the margin of run, and most of
these were big-score games.
| It's all question of pitching. De-
! troit should have wicked punch. But
in view of the strength assembled in
New York, ST. Louis, Washington and
Cleveland. !. the Tigers can scarcely hope
this year to crowd into the charmed
circle of the first division.

COLUMBUS, Ohio. April 1.-Some
indication of what may be expected in

versity this spring will be forthcom-
ing next Friday, when the Buckeye
squad journeys to Delaware to tilt
the lid with its neighbors and ancient
rivals of Ohio Wesleyan University.

University Heights institution, the sole
member Of last years team being Cap
tain Flynn, who is taking care Of the
third base position.
Toorock Playing Good Ball
Mccarthy has two good ball players
in Meyer Toorock at shortstop and
Lcvcndowsky at first base, but the
other members of the nine have yet to
prove their worth. George, formerly
of Fall River High School, at second
completes the inheld.
Bacilc and Witherton. two Of last
years substitutes, will guard left and
center fields respectively with Troy,
formerly Of the High School of Com
mcrce, in right field.
Dorkin, who did we'll at Lehigh sew
eral years ago, is slated to do most Of
the work in the box. Nelson and Dun
leavy are the other twirlers. Cohen,
the regular backstop. played on the
1920 nine, while Sheey, the other
catcher, was substitute last year.
Little is known concerning the
strength of the City College nine. The
team, however, is possessed Of much

Among the better known veterans are

Penn State Nine
Will Open Season
At Home Saturday
Bezdek Has Been Recon-
structing Nittany Team
for Past Three Weeks

STATE COLLEGE, Pa, April l.
"Play ball" will resound over New
Beaver Field next Saturday when Hugo
Bezdek's varsity nine is scheduled to
open the season against the fast team
from Juniata College. This is the
first time in years that Penn State
has opened the baseball season at
home, but with Easter coming late
this spring, the annual southern trip
has been delayed.
Bezdek has been reconstructlng the
Nittany nine for the past three weeks
and he will be able to see his new
material under fire for the first time
next Saturday. Captain Ullery, at
first base, is the only infield veteran,
unless Bezdek decides to bring Koch
Ter in from right field. The latter
played third base early last season
and is equally good in the infield or
the outer garden. If he remains in
the outfield, he will probably swing
over to center in Hinkic Hanes' old
position.
Sparks, third base; Eumer, short
stop, and Traphoner, second base, have
been holding down infeld berths in
rractice All were substitutes last
wear. Joe Lightner, in left field, is a
regular, while Bedenk, substitute, and
Mike Palm, former freshman, are other
good outfelders.
Cy Mellnger should be the main
stay of the pitching staff, and probably
will get the call for the opening game

hurlers last year, also are on hand and
are showing steady improvement, ChaI

thus far, but Ludwig and Hynes are

by the Purple in the South this spring.
Daily practice tussles with the Univcr-

of Wiliams's activities.
Weather conditions in the Berk-

Williams is we'll stocked with vcter-
