RAIN HELPS FRUIT AND GRAIN
Thousand of Dollars Worth of Good
Done By Big Rains of Last Week

Thousand of Dollars Worth of Good
Done By Big Rains of Last Week
The rain last week was of immense
value to agriculturists in this section.
The ground had become parched and
dry and even the ripening fruit on
trees was suffering from lack of mois-
ture. This is the first rain in weeks
that has penetrated the soil to any
depth. While too late tobe of benefit
to the pea crop, late strawberries,
wheat, corn, vegetables and fruit will
be greatly benefited. While there are
large quantities of pea vines, the
weather has shortened the crop and
recent reports state that many grow
ers will not be able to more than pay
for their seed. The vines have also
been covered with lice, which the dry
weather has permitted to thrive. The
rain will permit farmers to plow and
set their tomato plants, as they are
behind with their work.

 Rounds of Grief

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Age and it's wisdom fell before youth and it's crushing determination when Jack Britton, nearing the forty mark. and the oldest living man to hold a world s boxing championship title, surrendered to Micky Walker, of Elizabeth, N. J.. after 15 rounds of gruelling boxing in Madison Square Garden tonight.
 After 20 years in the ring, Brtton. the sage and crafty master of defense, twice the holder of the crown that tOppled tonight, was a poor match for the aggressive Jersey man, who dis played more than ordinary knowledge of the science of fisticuffs. Walker won all tue way.

 At one time, Britton's eyes were glassy, but his strategic retreat man aged to hold off his man until his brain cleared.
 There was something odd about the fight that was not satisfactorily eX plained to the crowd that filled the arena. When the contestants entered

 Britton occasionally landed blow but Walker continued hammerins away.
 ROUND EIGHT-Walker hooked his left to the jaw and Britton retreat ed. Walker sent his left twice to the stomach then twice to the jaw and Britton continued to back up.

ROUND NINE-Jack rocked Micky with a right to the head, then took a volley of body blows. Walker contin- ued turning the champions head with his left and began hooking his right more frequently. In desperation the champion began sending short rights upperCu,s but they lacked steam. The champion resumed his retreat and then began to hold, the challenger sending crushing blows to the kidneys
 ROUND TEN-Walker began hook ing both hands to the head. and then to lay back for powerful left swings to the stomach. The cham pion took a left to the jaw and a series in the body without a return. With a series of body blows, Walker pushed Britton to the ropes near the champions. corner, where he pummelled away until Britton fell to his knees He was calmly listen ening to the count when the gong rang at the count of six.

Britton returned blow for blow and forced Walker across the ring lambasting the challenger againt the ropes. Britton began to burn out and bowed with folded arms before a new assault, but Walk CT too was tiring from the pace and he did not press the champion.
