OCCTDENT ELEVATOR
BOOSTS WHEAT PRICE
AT PLENTYWOOD

Last Tuesday the Occident elevator
boosted the price of wheat an even
ten cents in Plentywood. The price
here this morning for No. dark hard
is S1.52 and the highest quotation on
wheat to arrive in Minneapolis is only
$1.78 which makes q small margin
if the wheat from here does not get
the very highest price at the teTmi-
nails.
George Lndgreen, the agent for
the International Elevator Co., stated
upon being interviewed that he is go
ing to follow the Occident prices.
Fay Bradley, manager Of the Farm
ers' elevator is yet undecided about
following the Occident, as the station
grade fer wheat at PlentywoOd is not
fully established, he is not sure if the
average wheat from here will demand
top prices.
o. F. Aplin, superintendent of the
Occident elevator, was in Plentywood
Wednesday when a News reporter
asked him regarding the boost of
prices, he replied that they needed the.
wheat and were willing to pay for it,
but did not state if these prices would
last or if the Occident were paying
the same prices at other points. 1t
is understood that the prices at Re
serve were raised the sam day and
that the Farmers and Victoria eleva-
tors are paying the new prices. There
is considerable comment in the streets
as to the reason that actuated the
Occident in raising the price at this
time. 1t is freely limited that the big
old line company is bent on giving
the farmers elevators at Reserve and
Plentywood a lesson, as these two
companies have been the strongest
competitors of the Occident in this
territory.

Battling Garner needs no introduc-

en- himself worthy of the confidence
which the boxing enthusiasts of
Northeastern Montana have placed in
this fast coming boxer. Bill has al
ways given the best he had in every
exhibition held in Plentywood and
other towns in the county and no
doubt will live up to his name in this
bout.
Both fighters will weigh 40 pounds
and the bout will go 10 rounds pro-
viding a sleep producer is not slipped
over before the finish.
The battle will be youth, vigor and
aggressiyeness against age, expert
ence and ring generalship and will
probably be the hardest fight in which
Garner has yet taken part. Scobey
will be down en- masse to Outlook to
boost for Blivens, who has been max
ing his home at that city for some
time and the Sheridan county fight
fans can be depended upon to back
"Bill" to the limit, as the fighting
Outlook boy has won the respect OF
all by his skill and aggressiveness
and ability to take punishment.
Both battlers are training hard fol
the coming match and spectators
who have seen the men in their
work outs, claim that they will be il

stranger through the back door.
While doing sc four other goldbrick-
ers ran out the front door and jump
ed in a waiting automobile, stepped
on the gas and drove in a furious
manner in the direction eff Scobey.
They left several decks of "shade"
work cards and several suits of
clothes behind them in Outlook, for
which they are not likely to return
for some time.
Another stranger, who fell into the
hands of Sheriff Salisbury, seemed
dazed and stated he could not under

him he could net fix anything UP in

upon him and he again exclaimed,

While the raid was in progress an

BRYAN SOLD TONGUE
TO REAL ESTATERS
FOR 500 PER DAY

New York. - William Jennings
Bryan made over $25O,UOO in the
last few months of his life, be-
lieves E. L. LambrTght of Tampa,
Fla, who headed the democratic
convention delegation from Flor
ida last year. Bryan was reput-
ed worth a million last spring
but wrote LambrRght then that
his fortune was less than half
that amount. His estate is
shown to be S86O,0OO.
Lambright believes Bryan
made most of this in Florida real
estate and states that Bryan used
his "siIver tongue" at 500 a day
for Coral Gables, Florida, a real
estate venture. Bryan sold his
home Villa Serena for 100000
profit.

game in Plentywood, opinion varies
as to the outcome or the match.
Many think that Blivens might win
on points and others are firm in their
belief that Garner will wear the
North Dakota veteran down before
the ten rounds are finished by his
hammering tactics in the clinches.
Anyway the battle should be a
real one and large crowd of fans
will motor over from this city to
witness the struggle.
The boxing match is being held I'M
der the auspices of the American
Legion which promises a good semi
final of 6 rounds which will be a

The bout commences at 900 o.
clock p. M, and F. E. Lindsey, prom
inent oil man of this city, will referee
the match.

DEPARTMENT DECIDES ON
! NEW ALLOCATTON SYSTEM
Hope Scheme Win Provide Maximum Channels With
Minimum Interference.

There are forty-seven channels I'M
der the new plan. With each station
dividing time two ways, ninety four
stations can be accommodated. More
than los stations are in sight.
1.-THE class B band extends from
ESQ to 545," said Chief Radio Super
visor Terrell. 1--WE cannot go above
545 because of interference from
code. We can place only so many
stations between 2SO and 545. There
fore, we must go down."
The difficulty about going down is
that many receivers will not tune in
wave lengths below 233 or ESQ meters
and around 400 class A stations must
be crowded in between 200 and ESQ.
If the class B stations could be
placed as low as 235 and the class A
below that, the solution of the prob
lem would be easy.
Here is a list of class B broadcast
ing stations. showing wave length in
meters, frequency in kiloeycles, call
letters and location, not including
Pacific coast stations. as authorized
under the new ALLEGATION plan:

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The De-
partment OF Commerce has finally
decided on scheme for the aIloca-
ton Of wave lengths to class B
broadcasting stations which, it is
hoped, will provide the maximum OF
channels with minimum interior
ence.
Under the new ALLEGATION plan, no
general rule has been followed. The
ALLEGATION Of wave length to each
station is based almost endrely on
tests which tend to show that sat
isfactory service will result. I'm
der the plan, the wave length Of
many of the class B stations are
changed to some extent.
The one failure of the new plan
is that it does not provide new chan
nels. To obtain such result. how
ever, was not anticipated. There
fore. the problem Of the department
in finding new channels for new sta
tions which are either under con-
struction or anticipated remains as
pressing as ever.

AN OLD SCOW
BY STEPHEN. l.. HORTON.
(Written for The Mail.)

I am an old scow,
Chained to busy wharf.
But my decks have known
The tiger tread of barefoot .seamen.
For once 1 was clipper,
Spreading my wings to the trades.
My belly full of the plunder of the
Orient
Gold and ivory,
Silk and sandalwood,
Spices and myrrh.
Though the slow death
Is slowly devouring me,
/ like to dream in the cool of the
night,
When the moon builds little fires
on the bay
And errant night winds,
Laden with odors of wide open sea,
Sing little songs in my rotting
cordage.
Then again / feel the soft footballs
on my silent deck.
Like the ghosts of burned-out pas
sions
Then it is | dream
Of sensuous melodies
Awakened by the fingers
Of sloe-eyed maids,
AS they sing their love to a tropical
moon.
For 1 have known life
Those gold and crimson threads
Woven into the white and black
That make a drear end endurable.
