ORGANIZATION
1t is reported that there are other
wheat growers in the state who are
members of the Montana branch who
contemplate taking similar action to
that of the local members in Flat
head county and that there are break
ers ahead not only for the Montana
organization but that the failure of
the Montana association to pull thru
together with the withdrawal of the
Minnesota wheat growers, is likely to
have a serious effect upon the future
fthe American, which is the central
head of the organization in the west
Ever since the formation of the
Montana Wheat Growers association
it has been hard struggle. In most
every wheat growing section of the
state for the past several years crop
mortgages greatly interfered with the
successful operation of the association
and the overhead expense was very
heavy.

Will Be Great Demand,

Limits Him.
BY FAIRPLAY.

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York, April 2.-Now that VIII
liam Lawrence Stribling. the Georgia
fistic prodigy. has demonstrated 10
the fans that his Columbus affair with
Michael McTigue, worlds light-heavy-
weight champion, was not n mistake,
his appearance probably will be great
ly in demand everywhere.
New York will have to remain ont
OF it since the rule against boxers
under n applies here so far as bouts
OF over six rounds are concerned. And
1t is good rule. The fact that
Strlbiing happens TO be mature for his
age merely marks an exception and
need not be accepted as warranting
the aborgation of the measure. de-
signed to protect youth from its owl
folly and recklessness.
So far as that goes. Stribling has
not few of those qualities of boy
ishness that lead youngsters inro
trouble. In the tenth round of his
fight against McTiguc in Newark on
Monday night. either desire to pose
after the manner of Jack Barrymore
or some admired star of the big time
circuit. or juvenile indecision, cost
him what seemed to be a chance 10
administer to Sir Michael the first
Knockout he ever experienced
But, as it happened. after William
Lawrence had got done admiring him
self for his splendid fighting-and i,
was splendid-McTigue managed 10
collect his senses and TO display those
high-class defensive tactics which have
for so long enabled him to maintain
a vertical ring pose.
Stribling showed everything against
McTigue but a knockout wallop. And
he almost showed that. This in the
tenth. The Dixie lad slugged the
Irishman with left hook and Mike
went into the ropes. As he bounded
off the hempen barriers. Stribling
smashed him with his right flush on
the jaw and McTigue went down on
one knee. dropping for an instant as
though about TO topplc flat. But the
next instant his scattered senses were
reassembled and he sprang to his feel
by the time the referee, Harry Lewis
had counted three.
