Washington, June 2S-The political

The campaign for the Presidency
will be in full blast within the next
ten days. Republicans have already
perfected their National organization
with the selection of the Secretary
of the Interior Hubert Work
as chairman of the Republican ma

effect that the Presidential campaign

party propagandists.
Problem COnfrOnts.
One of the great problems of the
major parties is to measure the pol
itical tendencies of the hundreds OF
thousands of men and women who
have reached the voting age since the
last election. 1t is generally recog-
nized that the younger generation
does not take it's politics as seriously
as, the oldsters. For that reason the
two parties will concentrate in their
efforts to show the new citizens the
need of exercising the franchise and
to acquaint them with the men and
political issues.
Though congress adjourned several
weeks ago, the Congressional Record

MANY FARMERS ATTEND
FARM DEMONSTRATION

A crowd of farmers numbering
around $50 and coming from every
community of Roosevelt county
and adjoining territory attended
the machinery demonstration held
July 18th at the Fairway Farm
north of Brockton. The demon
stration was under the supervision
of the extension service and ex-
tension employees gave impartial
explanations of the various mach
ines displayed.
After preliminary announce
ments in regard to the experiment
al work being carried on, the var
ious machines were taken to the
field and given sufficient trial to
show what can be expected under
working conditions.
Machinery included in the dem
%onstration was largely of the type
adapted I'd farming on a large
scale, and included some of the
newer types of cultivation and
land preparation implements.
The first implements to be dem
onstrated were duckfoot cultivat-
suture.-A. w. Warden, Co. Agent.

L IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
LONG LAYOFF WON'T HELP TUNNEY AND HEENEY REALLY HAS A CHANGE;
CHAMP IS CONFIDENT, HOWEVER, AND SHOULD WIN

from the prize-fighting business
but one which, nevertheless,
breathes absolute confidence that
the outcome of the July &c bout
will be a Tunney victory.
Tunney is confident he will win.
He was confident in the same man.
ner before the first Dempsey fight
although only one or two writers
thought he would weather the at
tack of Dempsey.
He was equally confident last
year.
And you know he won both
times Just about as he said he
would win, although in his fight
of last year there occurred a
seventh round episode which had
not been reckoned on.
TUNNEY, in talking with II of
L the writer's at Spectator re-
Gently, said ne lost his temper last
September and that explains why
he vas knocked in hat silly posi-
ton in the seventh round.
You can't get angry in this
business" he explained. But l
was angry at Dempsey for that
open letter and wanted to knock
him stiff, and l forgot everything.
And / got knocked down"
Perhaps those are not the words
Mr.. Tunney used in telling of that
incident, but, anyway, it sums up
what he said.
THE big New ZealanGcr, natur-
l. ally, thinks he will win. He
couldn't express any other belief
for the public perusal.
He bases his belief on his rug
gedness, his ability to take pun
ishment, his-well, the fact that
he has been fighting consistently
in recent months and Tunney
hasn't and winning means more
to him, than it does to Tunney.
We shall see. But who do we
think will win? Well, since it
ought to be said, we like-Tun-
ney Tin a Whisper.

BY PHILIP MARTIN

ONE of the things that ranges III
~ the realm Of possibilities is a
victory by Tom Heeney, the
rugged challenger, in his coming
fight with Mr.. Gene Tunney at
the Polo Grounds in New York
on July 26.
While the big New Z~ealander is
not the favorite to win at this
time and probably won't be when
the zero hour arrives. you can't
get away from certain conclusions
of numerous ones wise in the
racket.
Granted that Tunney is bigger
and better than ever, as some OF
the boys are saying, and probably
2E. per cent heftier with his punch
ing, you can't side-step the fact
that Heeney is n of those birds
who fatten on punishment and
that Tunney has boxed but 20
rounds since he won that title on
a certain rainy night in Philadel-
phia two years ago this Septem-
Der.
Heeney is a tough baby. Don't
forget that, and don't overlook the
fact that this will be a 15-found
bout. Gene hasn't stepped a 10
rounder in some years. 1t is
doubtful whether Gene can slap
the New Zealander down and
there is some question whether he
will be able to step lively for Is
rounds.
On the other hand, Heeney,
numbering fighter that he is, will
be hard put to combat the speed
of Tunney. He doesn't hit so ter
ribly hard himself and he'll learn
when he faces Tunney that it is
much harder to hit a fast-moving
chin like Tunney's than one OF
these slow-moving ones he has
basted in previous fights here.
- = n
THERE prevails at Spectator,
N. Y, where Tunney is train
ing, an atmosphere far removed

the operator to cultivate a 33-foot
strip each time across the field.
Listing for corn or fallow and the
machine for ridge busting came
next and proved to be of consider
able interest.
The one way disk, which is al
ready rapidly being adopted by
many wheat growers, was demons
trated in summer fallow and also
on we'll grown rye. Under both
sets of conditions, the machine
proved its value as a tillage i'm
plement and demonstrated its abil-
ity to kill weeds of all sizes.
Many farmers are interested in
supplemental heading and in COM
bine windrowing. M. l.. Wilson,
farm management demonstration,
briefly explained the machine on
hand and announced that another
demonstration would be held as
soon as the rye adjoining the Fair
way farm was ready to cut.
The concluding events of the af-
ternoon were demonstrations of a
four-row tractor cultivator, a five
row listed corn c%ultivator, a stub
BILE burner and the rotary hoe.
In speaking of windrowing and
the coming demonstration, Mr..
Wilson urged that every combine
owner keep this in mind and plan
to attend if possible. The uneven
grain situation this year is be-
lieved to be much more serious
than many combine operators
realize. Dates for this demonstra-
ton will be announced in the near
