DEMPSEY LIVES

Throws Self Into Condition.

White Sulphur Springs. Saratoga
Lake. N. Y, July 15.-(R-A new
order of things prevails in the train
ing camp of Jack Dempsey, once the
mauler Of Manassa, but now just an
other former champion attempting to
shatter ring precedent by fighting his
way back to the heavyweight throne.
Jack lives in complete seclusion in
a tiny bungalow hidden in deep
wood more than mile from Tom
Luther's hotel, the headquarters of
newspapermen and scene of the daily
training sessions. Rarely does he
come down from the hills except for
the workouts.

IN the past, the site Of Dempsey's
training grounds always was noted
.or the case and availability Of the
big gool~natured champion, until
lawsuits and process servers forced
Q new regime before the losing battle
with Gene Tunney last fall. Today
Jack is in even deeper scclusion but
for another reason.
Knowing that the fight with Jack

The night Of July 81 must be swan

WEATHER CALLS HALT
TO SHARkEY'S WORK

New York, July 10 @ - The
weather called a halt in Jack
Sharkeys training program for. the
fight with Jack Dempsey next Thurs

spotty showing yesterday, decided
humidity was harder to cope with
than his sparring partners, and an

To Change name
OF COUNTY'S FAIR
Board Tentatively Agrees On
Name ''ROcky Mountain Fair
New Dates Suggested

Hereafter Gallatin's county fair
may be known as the Rocky Noun
tain fair, and in 1927 it may be held
upon the last two days of August and
the first two days of September.
The changes in name and dates
were tentatively agreed to at a
meeting of the fair board Saturday,
at which the board reorganized and
reelected its officers for the coming
year. It was announced that next
falls fair will be larger and more
elaborate than any Of its predeces-
sors.
The change in name, which has
been under consideration for more
than a year, was proposed because it
is felt that the name "Gallatin Coun-
ty fair" implies certain limitations,
especially in connection with assign
ment Of dates by the state fair sec
retaries' organization and the obtain
ing of displays and special prizes
from out-Of-state exhibitors and man.
ufacturers.
Geographically, the local fair board
explained, Gallatin county's fair is
in a position to. represent the entire
southwestern section Of Montana.
Since its revival two years ago it has
grown in scope and popularity and
eventually, it is believed, will become
one of the outstanding events Of its
kind in the Northwest. The name
tentatively selected is considered
more In keeping with this broader
outlook and is expected to carry more
prestige and aid in attracting busi-
ness.
The fair board managers of the
state win meet in Billings on Febru-
ary 2 to outline race schedules, dis
icuss amusements, concessions, and
programs, and make contracts for the
Montana fair circuit for 1927. A
committee will be named later by the
local board to attend this meeting
The change in fax dates was pro
posed with the idea Of avoiding j
possible, the hazard of unfavOrabl'
weather, and for other obvious rea
sons.
The full membership Of the bOar'
was present at the meeting Saturday

SMALLER SURPLUS
OF HAY this YEAR
About Half of Available Supply
Already Marketed-Prices
Are Lower

Half the marketable surplus Of
timothy has been marketed to date
this season compared with As per
cent a year ago and 80 per cent at
this time in 1924, according to reports
received by the United States depart
ment of agriculture from a large
number Of dealers. About the same
proportion of alfalfa and prairie hay
has moved as at this time last year
but on account of the smaller surplus
of these hays the tonnage is doubt
less smaller than for the same time
last season. Moderate amounts of
hay are moving into the usual con-
suming areas, chiefly for dairy and
industrial purposes, since farmers in
these sections had good supplies of
local hays. Dealers stocks in con-
suming territory average a little
smaller than usual at this time, re-
flecting the slackened inquiry, but
some dealers are buying small
amounts of hay for deferred ship
ment.
Short crops in many sections of
Iowa, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Nc
braska, and Kansas are forcing ship
ments of hay, mostly alfalfa and
prairie, into these states for farm
feeding. Shipping demand for hay
in many other localities, however, is
slack on account of increased crops
of hay in the South and the abundant
supply of oottonseed meal and hulls
in that territory. A large supply of
locally raised feed grains in many To-
calities of the South is also tending
to restrict hay consumption there.
Including the carryover from last
season the domestic supply of hay
amounts to less than 108,000,000 tons
compared with 114,OOO,OOO year ago
and 125,OOO,OOO tons two years back.
The estimate of the 1926 crop is plac-
ed at 96,361 900 tons against 98,-
441 900 in 1925 but farm stocks Of
hay on May 1, 1926, were estimated
at 11,600,000 tons against nearly 49,
100000 tons in the previous year
Since the late spring in 1915 caused
unusually heavy feeding after May
the carryover this year is dOubtles.
smaller than the figure for May
would indicate.
Farm prices for all kinds of tam
hay in the United States are prac
ticaIly the same as a year ago, aver
aging only Is cents per ton highe
while farm prices of wild hay averag
about S1.5O per ton higher this sea
son, reflecting the reduced crop 0
this hay. Prices on an average al
slightly higher than last year in tn
northeastern section Of the Unite
States and in the West North Ger
trail states but in nearly all other sec
tions they are lower, much lower i
some areas.

STATE PEA CROP
WORTH SI,S62,OOO
Production and Price Under
Record for 1925, However
Outlook for This Year

Total value to Montana Of the pea
growing industry in 1926 was ST.
$4,000, according to Jay G. Diamond,
f.deral crop statistician, who has just
completed a survey of the industry
for the forthcoming issue Of the Mon
tana Farm Review.
In the nearly two million dollars
total value is included the production
of $4,000 bushels of seed peas, which
will bring the state $1,O4O,0OO and
316,000 cases Of green peas, canned
at three Montana factories, valued at
1922, 900.
The pea growing industry has had
a marked development In Montana
during the past five years, according
to the records of the crop statis-
tician's office. In 1922 value of the
seed pea crop was placed at about
100000 and the total value of the
industry in Montana at less than q
million dollars.
The rapid strides made in 1928 AMI
1924 brought the crop to a point
where, with a total value Of $780,
600 in 1925, it outranked such crops
as rye, beans and apples, taking
tenth place among all Montana crops
In 1925 it exceeded in value the flaa
crop and advanced to ninth place.
Neither production nor price O
seed and canning peas in 1926 wa
equal to that of 1925, the latter con
dition being due to a larger nationa
supply. Pea growers look for som
further contraction of the industry /
Montana again next year as step i
the adjustment to the supply situa
tion. However, the pea industry
generally conceded to occupy, and eS
pected to maintain an impOrtan
place among Montana crops.

Definite PLANS
FOR AGRICULTURE
To Study Important Problems,
State Divided Into Seven Dis
tricts-Meeting Here Later

The more than 300 farmers, busi-
ness men and organization represen-
tatives who took part in the Farm
and Home week meetings here to con-
slider plans for agricultural programs
for the state were unanimous in their
approval of the effort. A definite
plan Of action was established look
ing to the division Of the state into
seven districts, each district to ap-
point committees of men and women
to study the important problems Of
the farm and the farm home and to
report their findings and recommen-
datiOns at two-day economic confer
ences later in the winter. Definite
programs for each district will be
based upon the findings of the COM
mittees.
For the purpose of the work
under way the state has been
divided into districts so that each
area may consider its problems
separately. The districts are s
follows: Northeastern, southeast
ern (dryland and irrigated), central
high line, north central, central, south
central and western. The places and
dates for the economic conferences
are southeastern (dryland) Miles
City, February 1915; southeastern
(irrigated), Billings, February 1918;
north central, Great Falls, March 1-2;
western, Missoula, March 1915; cen
trail high line, Havre March 29-3O;
4 northeastern district, Wolf Point
: (tentative), March 31-April 1. Dates
{ for the south central or intermountaiu
= conference have not been set. A spe-
e cial conference for the FlatheaC
{ project and Lake county will be helC
at Poison, March 17-18, and a Fergus

OLYMPIAN DERAILED;
WOMAN LOSES LIFE

One woman was killed and % per-
sons were more or less seriously in
jured last Thursday when the Mil
waukee's eastbound Olympian was
derailed at Cyr, 38 miles west of Mis-
soula. The woman who lost her life
was Mrs. Jacob GOnnerman, of Dy-
sart, Iowa, who was crushed under
the truck Of a day coach. The cause
of the derailment has not been as
certained. At the time of the acci-
dent the train was travelling about
45 miles an hour.

GREAT LAKES WATERWAY

With two strong government re-
ports backing the proposed construc-
tion by the United States and Can
ada of shipway from the Atlantic
into the Great Lakes via the st.
Lawrence river, it might seem that
congress would put the measure
through at the present session.
However, Canada, which would ap-
parently benefit most by the canal,
seems to still have cold. feet on the
proposition.

COMMERCIAL SCHOOLS

There has been a slump in the
private and commercial schools Of
the country during the past three or
four years, according to reports is
sued by the United States board Of
education. Undoubtedly this has
been due to the fact that high schools
and other branches of the public
schools have been broadening their
courses along commercial lines.
