DEMPSEY HAS
Much TO LOSE

If Tommy Gibbons defeats Jack
Dempsey at Shelby, July 4, the title
of heavyweight boxing champion
won't be the only thing Jack will lose.
Should the unexpected result mater
ialize, Jack will be out just $500, 900
in addition to the loss of his crown
as king of hefty maulers.
According to a contract signed
Wednesday, Dempsey, if he retains
his title in the Shelby bout, will re-
ceive 100000 to play a lead part in
the movies, according to Henry Gross
man, president of the Amalgamated
Exchanges of America. Although
not ready to announce the title of the
picture in which Dempsey will APP
pear, Nh. Grossman states it would
be a scenario taken from an Ameri-
can novel by a well known author,
and that the theme deals with the re-
juvenation of a prizefighter.
In briefly outlining the plot, he
stated that the outset would show
Dempsey, the principal, as a man Of
strong physique administering q
beating to a man who had abused g
horse. d..
This humanitarian act, which dis
plays the fistic proves of the hero
leads to a successful ring career
after which the star devotes his phys
ical prowess combined with mental &C
umen for the good of society at large
From a mere man of the ring, thu
hero of the film will rise to a posi-
ton of Importance in the bushes
world, and woven in the plot will b
a romantic theme, in which love TO
the heroine will have much to do wit
; the u~pbuilding of character and sue
cess of the principal.
Dempsey has had experience j
, movies previously, but it is believe
by Grossman that the Shelby figE
will put the champion so much in tn
limelight, if victor, that he will be a
added drawing card.

OF PIE.

The services to civilization of our
neighbor, the Gazette, of Emporia,
Kansas, are frequent and ~conspicu-
Gus, and none, perhaps, is more wor-
thy of the gratitude Of mankind than
the philippe against lemon pie re-
published in the Line-o'-Type of
Tuesday. If there is anything calcu-
lated to make the patriotic American
despair of the republic, it is the desc
Grafton of one of our sacred institu-
tons by that spurious and ~ingannate
chemical mesalliance.
Pie, as every true student of his
country's history knows, is one of the
foundations of our greatness. 1t was
one of the inspired agents of the law
of the survival of the fittest. Strong
men throve on it. Weaklings fell be-
fore it. When the American had
breakfasted on pie he went forth to
conquer. Nothing else could daunt
him.
But it was pie that the giants of
those days lived by, real pie, not the
degenerate ~pretender which has crept
into a noble company and dares to
call itself lemon pie. A wretched
thing, anaemic, innutritive, acidulous
what has this impudent fraud to dc
with real pie-the imperial Apple, the
primate Of ali pies, and Mince, of the
blood royal, a heroic pie, of whom the
poet has well sung:
"Who fares him forth with mince be,
hind his belt
Fares forth to conquer of gloriouslN
to die!"
Then there is BURBERRY, a pie o.
the song azure, a royal prince O
pies, and Pumpkin, of ancient line
age, a noble pie, and Squash, hi
cousin-german. There is Cherry,
gallant pie which challenges the ut
most skill Of the artist, but we'll re
wards success; and there is Rhubart
a very worthy pie, a most worthy pie
These be pies, true Pie, food of
: fighting race, maker of strong me
: who went forth lock-jawed, yet Joy
1 Gus, to venture and subdue, to drear
and do, to build and to aspire.
: Has some enemy introduced thi
. sO-called lemon pie into. the Amer
d can cuisine, or is that an
Intellectual thing a spontaneous sig
of u degeneracy? However ths
may be, this so-called pie is foddt
fit only for men who ride and ru.
= no more. We deplore our neighbOr
j disposition to wait for some reformt
c to arise and swat the lemon pi
That is not like Kansas, the home
: crusades. Now, surely, is the a.
{ pointed time. Let Kansas rise, ar
Z the revolt will quickly spread fro
II sea to sea.

VETERANS ARE GOING BACK
TO THE SOIL"

That the "back to the soil' move
ment has many adherents among
Montana ex-service men is revealed
in a report made public recently by
c. Thomas Busha, Jr., manager of
the office of the u. S. Veterans bu-
reau. According to the figures an
nOunced, 225 disabled veterans ap-
proved for vocational training have
selected some phase of agriculture
for their vocation. This is approx
imately one-fifth of the entire num-
Der Of men who have accepted train
ing. Mr.. Busha attributes this
strong preference for agriculture to
the large proportion of veterans who
followed farming prior to their
army service and to the inherent de-
sire of the individual to control his
own activities and enjoy complete
independence.
The average farm course is 80
months in duration and the institu-
tional part of the mans instruction
is given at the State college, Boze-
man, Montana. This is supplement-
ed by project training dhSring the
spring and summer months on land
owned by the trainees. If a man is
not a land owner, or if the land he
has is not suitable for his purpose, he
is assisted in obtaining title to a
tract that meets the requirements
Merritt Owsley, chief of the agricul.
tural division of the bureau in thi:
state, is directing this part of the
work. At present he has under con
s~ideration several large tracts of Ian.
near Eureka, Mont, for colonization
purposes, and five vocational mel
with their families have already set
tied there. Favorable arrangement
have been made with a banking insti
tuition to give thesem en- the finan
cial aid they need to get firmly estab
Hshed on the land.
The actual number of disabled vete1
n who r receiving practical train
ing on farms this summer is III

cally every county of the state adapt

COOKE CITY DUE FOR BIG BOOM.

Cook City is soon to resume the &C
Invites of old ming days, according
to a statement made by DIR. G. L. Tan
ger, Phi. D., who recently announced
that an immense amount of money in
addition to that already expended
will be appropriated to make improve
ments that will complete the plans for
developing the property of the West
ern Smelling and Power Company
into the finest and most complete
copper, gold and silver mining equip
ment to be found anywhere. Instruc-
tions were left in Livingston a few
days ago for engineers of that city
to make the required surveys neces-
sary with the added improvements.
DIR. Tanner will spend 10 days at
Cooke City overseeing the work OF
getting improvements under way,
then he will return to Seattle on bust
ness, and later will go east to pur-
chase machinery for the improve
ments to be made in the refining

Association Formed


CHICAGO, June 20.-The National
Wheat council, composed of represent
atives of all branches of the wheat in
dustry, was formed today at the clos
ing sessions of the two-day meeting
called by Governor Preus of Mime
sofa for the consideration of the prob
lens of the industry.
Resolutions adopted by the con-
ference approved the investigation of
freight rates on grain products now
being conducted by the interstate
commerce commission; urged develop
ment of waterways, and suggested the
sterilization of wheat values in the
United States. Other resolutions ap-
proved a campaign to increase do
mestic consumption, suggested feed
ing of lower grades to livestock, and
urged scientific study of the prob
lens of the industry by all elements.
Among those named to the first
board of directors of the national
wheat council to serve for a period
of one year, are:

American Farm Bureau federation:

WHEAT GROWERS
FEAR BANKRUPTCY

The national wheat conference,
called by the governors OF seven
states in an effort to combat what
they term a commercial crisis in the
grain growing industry was held IN
Chicago several days ago.
More than 500 representatives of
business, manufacturing and trans
~portation interests, as well as dirt
farmers and agricultural Organiza-
tions, entered the meeting with the
hope that out of it might come a
solution to the problem which ac-
cording to delegates threatens to send
Americas wheat growers into bank
ruptcy.
? A number Of pre-convention speak
ers warned that the farmers are In
the midst of the greatest price slump
in fifty years, citing numerous in
stances in the western states where
wheat growers would have been
thrown into insolvency had it not been
for local financial support. The grain
r~aisers, it was said, are now facing
an uncertain price slope which baf-
files economists, while 170,O0O,OOO
bushels of wheat are on hand as a
surplus and another harvest has al
most begun.
The. non-political nature of the
gathering, according to one speaker,
makes it possible that a practical
plan may be worked out which will
place the nations wheat growing
industry on a sound, economic basis

dress.
Denial that the farm bloc is a class
movement was made by Senator Ar
thur Capper, Of Kansas, in an ad
dress before the wheat conference
Governor j. A. o. Preus, of Mime
sofa, who was nominated for the sen
ate in the Republican primaries, als'
addressed the conference, declaring
that as wheat is the only American
commodity the price Of which is con
trolled outside of America, the annua
wheat surplus of approximately II,
100000 bushels presents the mos
important Of the farmers problems.
"We have not asked any special ia
vors for farmers" said Senator Car
per. 81 am as much opposed to elias
legislation as the stiffest-backeC
anti-paternalistic American who eve
lived. The man who attempts to st
up class animOsity is not a goo
American. The new legislation el
acted by congress is in no sense elias
legislation. We have put forwal
the argument on the far high,

farm and the farm will take care
