THE MAINE SHEEP AND WOOL
GROWERS ASSOCIATION

The Maine Sheep and Wool Grow
ers' Association was organized and
incorporated in 1920, for the purpose
of building up a marketing system
for the Wool produced by its men,
bers, returning an increased price
per pound, thereby increasing the
number of sheep kept throughout the
State by making the industry more
profitable to the farmer.
Due to the fluctuation in price of
wool each year, 1T was found that
something more substantial must be
worked out that would return a bet
ter level Of prices over a period of
years. and which would guarantee a
reasonable profit each year.
During the year of 1920, the wool
market was so nearly demoralized,
and the price was so unsatisfactory
that the Organization was unable to
market the wool as it came from the
farms, making 1t necessary to find
some other way Tn which to turn
the same into cash. The actual needs
of the producer were first considered,
and as a result, small amount of
wool was manufactured into mems
suitings and heavy cloth, to be made
into pants for farmers and lumber
men. The demand for these goods.
and results obtained, were beyond
all expectations, and caused the di-
rectors to feel they had at last
struck satisfactory marketing sys-
tenn. Since that time, the wool pro-
duced by the members has been
manufactured in a sufficient amount
to take care of the needs of its MEM
bers and friends, and the balance
has been sold on the market, as
grease or secured wool.
Each year, 1t has been found nee
essary to add to our line, until at
the present time. the Association is

CRENORA TAKES A
FALL OUT OF P'WOOD

Playing with desperate desire to
avenge the defeat administered to
them by PlentywOod a few weeks ago,
Grencra defeated, the local team at
the Herald Ball Park in this city last
Saturday by a score Of 5 to 8.
The struggle was a hard one from
start to finish and probably more
two base hits were made by both
teams than has been made in any
two games before this season. The
game was a regular swatfest from
start to finish with Plentywood just
weak enough in the pinches to lose
the game.
Chukaluk pitched for Plentywood
after having hurled the game against
ScObey the day before and pitched a
fine game, but the strain of pitching
two days running no doubt accounted
for some eff Grenora's swats.
A huge crowd witnessed the per
Torrance and enjoyed the close strug-
gle between the two teams.

IN THE REALM OF SPORT

warned the Roosevelt county battler
to raise his punches. Despite the
blows below the belt Garner give the
fighter from Wolf Point an awfuling
pummeling in this round.
In the fourth, Ferguson apparently
made. up his mind to get his man by
foul means, he apparently having
lost hopes of winning fairly. Again
and again he hit below the belt and
the referee cautioned him and eau
toned him to get his blows up, and
finally told him that the next foul
blow he would have to give the fight
to Garner Almost Immediately after
this warning, Ferguson shot in left
punch far below the belt and the
Refree lifted the hand of Garner as
winter CT the bout.
No one had anything to say in de-
tense of the underhanded fighting
displayed by Ferguson as the wallOps
below the belt were out in the open
so that even those from Wolf Point
admitted that their fighter had foul
ed Garner not once but several times.
An examination by DR.. Storkan after
the bout revealed the fact that Gar
ner was black and blue on the right
side far below the belt, but Garner
himself said he would never have
squawked if he had laid him out with
foul punches.
Just what Ferguson hoped to gain
by these tactics is a conundrum. The
Wolf Point fighter is not an amateur
in the boxing game. In fact he is
just the opposite, having had years OF
experience. He might have had some
excuse if he were only a beginner
and did not understand the rules CT
fighting. But to deliberately foul 9
man four times in one round would
seem as though Ferguson wanted tC
lose the fight by this route rather
than by k. 0.
This is the second time Ferguson
has used Unfair tactics in fighting il
this city and he has disqualified him
self for all tines to come to appear
before an audience Of fans in Plenty
wood according to the talk on the
streets after the last battle.
The boxers who appear before the
public owe the spectators a good eX
hibition for their money and the end
ing Of a match in a few rounds b!
the tactics displayed by Ferguson il
a disgrace to the game and the per
petrator should be ruled-out if h,
continues that mode of boxing.
On the other hand Garner Tough
fast clean battle. There was n,
pretense of hitting below the belt
shouldring his opponent, or any C
the dirty tricks resorted to by un
: scrrpulous fighters. Boxing wit
: skill and fighting savagely at times
he won his fight fairly and squared
and in the opinion of the spectator
would have won from Ferguson by
knockout if the battle had continue
the scheduled ten rounds.

SCOBEY WINS JULY 3
FROM BRENTWOOD
Daniels County Team Wins By
Score of to 4-ScObey Uses Home
Talent IN Box.

With a young local pitcher in the
box, Scobey again trimmed the Plen-
tywood team last Friday, July 3rd at
the Herald Ball Park in this city.
The game was very interesting and
several times Plentywood looked like
they were winners, but the Risberg
jinX got them again and with three
men on, the boys would get buck
fever and the Scobey twirler would
set them down with no score.
Risberg played a star game at
first for Scobey, as did the Indian
shortstop, who made some wonderful
steps and throws to first. The star
play of the game was made by the
Scobey third baseman who picked a
foul ball right off the hood of a car
after reaching over wire fence to
spear the pill.
Both Scobey and Plentywood hit
horsehide hard, but the local boys
proved to be weak in the pinches.
A good sized crowd witnessed the
game and enjoyed the exhibition of
the great American sport.

GARNER WINS
FIGHT ON foul
Wolf Point Fightr Deliberately Re-
sorts to Underhanded Tactics After
Severe Pummeling by Outlook Box

The boxing match held at the Far
mer-Labor Temple in Plentywood at
600 o'clock on July 4th, was won by
Battling Garner in the Fourth round,
when the referee gave the decision
to the Sheridan county boy after he
had been fouled several times by
Ferguson.
The bouts were witnessed by the
largest audience ever gathered to-
pgether to witness a match in this
city, and all seemed well satisfied
with the exhibition with the exception
Of the Unsportsmanlike tactics Of the
Wolf Point fighter.
Alfred Marsh and "Swede" Johnson
went on in the preliminaries and
furnished a good deal eff amusement
for the fans, and put them in a good
humor for the main event.
After the preliminary bout, Battl-
ing Garner and Chick Ferguson took
their respective corners amidst a
hearty applause from the audience.
Referee Lindsey introduced the two
fighters to- the audience and talked
over the rules of fighting with the
two pugs, which were mainly to the
effect that there should be no hold
ing and the breaks should be clean.
The first round started out fast
and furious with Garner getting the
best of the frequent clashes. Fer
guson fought clean this round and
was plainly trying to get his man
in the first round. The Wolf Point
battler was the aggressor in this
round but his attacks resulted gen.
orally in a severe pummeling to him
self, and Garner was taking all he
had with a grin.
In the second round, Ferguson
started out with a rush and the pace
apparently began to tell en- him while
Garner was fighting easy and getting
in damaging punches.
In the third round, Ferguson com
menced to- foul and it was clear t,

should the gentleman suggest the var
ious dishes? If a lady wishes any
favcrite selection of music played, IS
it proper for her to ask the waiter
to have the leader to play it?
Thank you, +. q.
Some etiquette authorities consider
it improper for the lady to order what
she wishes from the menu. She
should net see the menu at all. II
the waiter hands her a menu, she
should lay it aside. The gentleman
may suggest various things, from
which she makes her decision. This
is done in order that the lady may
order without regard to the price.
Very few women, however, adhere to
this rule. The majority eff them pre-
fer to choose what they wish. ~
A lady should not speak to the wait
er. Therefore if she wishes some
special selection Of music played, the
man may ask the waiter to request
the leader to play it, OF he may write
note on a card.
